FEARS FOR TIE CHARLOTTE.

The Vessel Overdue and Much Anx.
iety Felt Concerning Her.
Some fears are entertained for the safety
Of the schooner Charlotte, Capt. Edward
Fitzgerald. She is several days Overdue.
The Charlotte, in company with the
schooner Tangier, left the Satilla river
with a cargo of rice. the Tangier
bound for Charleston and the Charlotte for
Savannah. Tuesday night the Tangier was
anchored off Martins Industry nghtship,
and 1t is supposed from this that the Char
lotte must have been anchored in Tybee
roads, or somewhere in that neighborhood,
but it is not known positively whether she
was or not.
Tuesday night heavy northwestern set in
and the Tangier was compelled to heave
anchor and put TO sea. She arrived at
Brunswick Thursday. having ridden ous the
gale. 1t probable if the Charlotte we're in
the roads that she also put TO sea, as nothing
has been heard of her. She is not long
enough overdue to abandon all hope for her.
Besides her crew, Capt. Fitzgerald's
wife and his three children are on
board. The captains friends are
anxious for their safety. Col
lector johnson telegraphed the commander
of the revenue cutter Coutwell at Beaufort
s. G.. yesterday to keep lookout for the
missing schooner.

a ROBBERY AT THEpE SOTO.
The Thief Worked a Bluff Game and
Escaped.


A bold theft was committed by q shrewd
negro in the gentlemen's furnishing store In
the De Soto last night. The stock is being
sold out under a chattel mortgage, and the
clerks have been busily engaged in the early
part of the nights recently waiting on Gus
toners.
About O'Clock well>dressed negro en-
tered the store and stood at one Of the
counters for several minutes, apparently
waiting the attention OF one Of the clerks.
Before the other customers had been waited
on the negro walked out. After be was
gone several articles Of fine linen, which bad
been display ed on the counter alongside Of
which he had been standing, were missed.
One Of the clerks started for the door 60
see what had become Of the negro and met
him coming back. He charged him with
the theft and the fellow at once Strengthened
himself up and became highly indignant.
"Why / am employed 10 the hotel up
stairs, said the negro. go up and they'll
tell you who ] am ct the same time Civ
ing a name. The clerk went upstairs 70 in
quire II the negro was an employe. and the
fellow apparently piping with indignation
walked to the door aud remarked that he
would wait until the clerk returned and
show people be wasn't thief.
The clerk was told at the hotel office that
no such person as the one inquired for
worked at the hotel or was even known.
He hurried downstairs to have the negro
arrested, bat the bird had flown. When
the clerk turned the corner the negro walked
away.
1t is supposed that be had a part
ner outside to whom he gave the first batch
Of stolen goods. aud he was intending to
make a sec md haul when the clerk met
him aud charged him with the theft.
The thief Is a shrewd one, and worked the
game Of injured innocence to perfection.

City Physician Sheftall BEFORE an IN
vsstigating Committee.
City Physician Sheftall of the western
district was on the rack for several hours
yesterday before the health aud cemetery
committee Of council and Acting Mayor
Mills. There were various charges against
him, the principal one Of which was neglect
OF duty.
Last Monday white woman reported to
the mayors Office that she had sent for DIR.
Sheftall several times TO attend her child
rem, who were i'll, but he had failed TO
respond. Health Officer Drummer, who had
heard Of several such complaints, reported
the matter TO the health and cemetery COM
mittee, and Alderman Harris, the chairman
Of the coaamittee, with Acting Mayor Mills,
ordered an investigation.
1t was held with closed doors, and the
testimony of several people was taken by a
stenographer DR.. Sheftall made a state
ment in his own behalf, denying negii-
gence, and stating that the complaint was
caused by his having very large and scat
tered territory TO cover.
Another Charge which was not subs
stantiaUed, was that DIR. Sheftall allowed a
druggist, who is studying medicine under
him, to attend his patients.
While the investigating committee was
not convinced that DR.. Sheftall bad neg
lected bis duty, it was satisfied sufficiently
to give him a lecture on his duties, and dis
missed the case with timely admonition.
At the conclusion OF the investigation
Alderman Harris offered resolution, which
was unanimously adopted compelling city
physicians in the future to furnish to tine
mayor weekly reports Of the number of
cases attended, the location of patient, their
condition and the general condition of the
health OF their districts

PREPARING FOR MAXI SEASON.
Naval Stores Men Getting in Shape for
the Coming Year.

Naval Stores Men Getting in Shape for
the Coming Year.
The naval stores men have been busy for
some time making arrangements with the
operators for the next years business.
The naval stores business requires large
amount Of capital and it is q fortunate man
who can ''go it alone" There are few such.
The factors do not like to confess it but
there are a larger number Of men who want
TO 60 into the naval stores business
this year than ever before. With the cotton
crop failure financially. every man who
has the opportunity is anxious to go into
the production OF naval stores, as il is the
only moneY-making business that offers
itself.
The factors have turned away scores of
factors in the last few weeks who were not
sufficiently strong financially TO warrant
the risk Of furnishing them. The disposition
OF the factors is TO rather draw in than
expand their operations and they would
prefer, so they say, to curtail the number Of
their customers There are two reasons for
this, one being the difficulty in securing adj
vances from the banks, on account of the
scarcity or money, and the other being that
they fear IL the OUTPUT OF naval stores Ia
considerably heavier next year than this
year, the price will drop below the profit OF
production. Many OF them are prevailing
upon their regular customers to curtail
operations.
Travelling men from the turpentine sec
ton report that the established naval
stores operators have pitched their business
upon higher scale this year than last, and
if the North Carolina immigration law is not
done away with or got around in some
way they will be seriously injured by the
lack of labor to carry on their operations
on the scale planned. The same men ex-
press the opinion that If the North Caro-
lima immigration law is not declared un>
constitutional the operators will be
seriously crippled
"There is enough labor in the country at
present." said one well-posted travelling
man, "even il few thousand negroes 60
back to North Carolina and remain there,
but IL there is general revival of business
next spring, and all the small sawmills,
which have been compelled to shut down
by the depression Of the lumber trade, re-
sumo business, and at the same time two or
three railroads are in process of construc-
ton as Is generally the case, the scarcity of
labor will be severely felt"
A prominent factor said that the scarcity
of labor would be one of the best things
that ever happened TO the naval stores men,
both producers and factors, il 1t caused
them to curtail their operations and in that
way lessened the amount OF next years
output

An Independent League Formed From
Its Remnant.

An Independent League Formed From
Its Remnant.
Parnellism is dead in Savannah. Its
organized representative here, the Irish
National League of America, passed out of
existence last night and formed itself into
an independent body called the Savannah
Irish League.
NJ. A. 0'Byrne, Esq, delegate from Sa-
vannah branch TO the convention of the
Irish National League held at Chicago re-
Gently, made an elaborate and instructive
report. recommending the withdrawal Of
the branch from the national body.
When the motion was put but two dissent
ing votes were polled out of fifty. Both
are strong admirers OF the dead leader and
his policy. and wanted to be put on record
as opposed to any change. The majority
OF the Savannah league are for Mccarthy
for leader and will probably connect the
new society with the Irish National FEEDER
alton, the organization which was formed
by the opponents OF Mr.. Parnell. DR..
Thomas Adds Emmett, grand nephew of
the famous Robert Emmett, the martyed
Irish patriot, is president of the federation,
and Banker Eugene Kelly is treasurer.
The officers of the defunct league will act
as officers OF the new body until the annual
meeting In January.
