LET YOUR LIGHT 80 SHINE.
The Morning News Trade Review

The Morning News Trade Review.
Never in the business history of Savannah
has there been greater necessity for the
coming trade review of the MORNING NEWS
illustrating Savannah and her enterprises
than at present
Savannah is the great seaport city of the
state. 1t is the gateway to the sea. The
products of a vast territory empty them
selves here. Here are the headquarters of
the vast Central railroad system, per-
meating every nook and corner of Georgia,
Alabama and South Carolina. Here is the
terminus of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway, bringing all Florida and
Southern Georgia to our very doors, and
now extending itself to the heart Of Ala
bama, drawing tribute for the city from
that prosperous state.
Savannah has now a new outlet to the
timber lands and cotton fields lying along
the Savannah, Americas and Montgomery
and Savannah and Western roads. Along
all these roads are cities and towns and
villages. The trade of these should be Sc
cured for this city. Train their merchants
to trade with Savannah. Advertise our
city and ourselves, and let them know what
Savannah merchants can do.
The Trade Review, going everywhere,
finding every village, seeking every bust
ness man, at once introduces the city and
her business men. 1t aids the drummer on
lis rounds. 1t tells our new acquaintance
in the recently opened territory where we
are and what we are. Such trade issue is
a directory, guide.
This is an age of reading People look In
the newspapers to find what they want.
Cannot our business men, arising to the
hight of Savannah's bright future, aid in
making this trade review a great mirror,
rejecting TO the business world our beautiful
city in all her gloryl
This is Savannah's golden opportunity to
turn the tide of travel and trade to her own
doors, and thus secure the advantages which
nature and the sagacity of business men
have given her.
Every merchant in Savannah should be
represented in the columns of this issue.
The cost is small; the returns great Full
information will be furnished on applica-
tion to the BUSINESS OFFICE telephone, 364.

the latter historic locality he was on board

day in the Wistoria for an inspection of this

PASTOR BILLS INCoRRIGIBLEs.

The Greene Square Baptist Congre-
cation in a Lively Row.
The Greene square colored Baptist con-
gregation held lengthy conference last
night In an attempt to settle its differences.
but was unsuccessful The conference
lasted until after midnight, and was very
lively one.
1t was the regular monthly conference of
the church, and everybody knew that the
fight was on and both sides were out in
force.
Devotional services lasted until after 10
o'clock, when the pastor called the meeting
to order and took his seat as moderator.
The pastors supporters were evidently
largely i'll the majority, and q motion was
put early in the conference to expel the five
ex-deacons who are leading the opposition.
The motion was carried by vote OF 29S to
ISL. When the result of the vote was an
nounced there was a hubbub. Cries of
unfairness, motions for reconsideration and
other objections to the vote assa.led the
moderator. He did everything he cou1d
TO get order, which could be obtained for
only minute at time
Whenever the moderator announced the
meeting ready for business about twenty
members would exelaim, brother Mod
eratorl" in the same voice, and the con-
One deacon made some Objectionable re-
mark, and a sister called upon him TO sit
down. The moderator ordered the sister
put out of the church, which created
another uproar. 1t took the pastor
about an hour, speaking in the intervals
between the succession of uproars, to ex-
plain his authority to expel the sister in such
summary manner.
The stentorian tones of Pastor Ellis We're
heard often, calling: "Order; the church
will come to ordern He had to threaten
with the police, which caused him to be as
sailed with protests from all portions of the
house, and precipitated a scramble in one
corner. There was for awhile danger of a
general row. The police were called in but
the meeting duieted down before any ar
rests were made.
Many conservative members could be
heard begging for peace, and calling upon
the brethren to drop their differences and
beg one another's forgiveness, but their
voices were unheeded, and the disorder
continued.
The conference finally adjourned without
accomplishing anything, unless the five ex-
deacons are considered as excluded.

FL0UR'S LIVELY BLAZE.
BAKER & HKLMKEN'S FLOUR
WAREHOUSE PARTLY BURNED.

The Loss on stock and Building In
the Neighborhood of S1o,ooo-The
Insurance Unknown, but supposed
to Cover the Loss-The Origin of the
Fire a Mystery.
Baker & Helmken's prepared -four ware
house, No. 1s4 Bay street, was badly dam
aged by fire this morning.
4 few minutes after l o'clock Policeman
Davis turned in an alarm from box S, at
Bay and Whitaker streets. He located the
fire in the building on the north
side OF Bay street, corner of Will
hanson, occupied by Baker & Helmken.
Charles H. Baker and Martin G. Helmken
composed the firm. Their stock, mostly
prepared -four, was stored on the top floor,
the two lower floors of the building being
unOccuppied.
Dense volumes of smoke kept COM
ing out from under the roof. but for
some time there was no blaze. The
situation of the building and the low sheds
in front made it difficult for the firemen TO
work. About o'clock the flames burst
through the western window nearest the
river front. and it looked as If the building
would be entirely destroyed.
Shortly afterward, however, the firemen
got heavy streams Of water into the build
ing from the Bay street side and from the
roofs of adjoining buildings and the fire
was soon under control. The western part
of the roof was burned off and portion of
the wall fell in, but the fire was confined to
the upper floor.
Baker & Helmken carried stock Of be-
tween a, 900 and $1,000, which will proba-
bly, be a total loss. The damage to the
building will approximate 1000.
The building was leased by Col J. Il. Es-
till, and WIS owned by Joseph Forbes Of
Boston, for whom Richardson and Barnard
are agents. Whether there was any insur-
ance on the stock could not be learned
Detective 81 Basch arrested three negr)
boys who we're asleep in a little cuddy un-
der the she'd of the adjoining warehouse below
and sent them to the barracks. AS their cuddy
was shut Off entirely from the rest Of the
building, it was impossible for the boys TO
have had any connection with the fire. es-
pecially as they were asleep when discov-
cred.
