bystander, who received a ball in the
thigh. Jones claims, however, that the
ball that struck Page was fired by Steven
son.
Jones got into a row with a negro pros

TO shoot her Willie Stevenson, one Of
Detective Bossell's colored aids had been
in the neigh bOrhOOd looking for Jones for
some purpose, and the woman called him
to her assistance. Stevenson borrowed
Detective Bossell's pistol and attempted
to arrest Jones. The latter, 50 Stevenson

Morgan was on Lumber street when he
heard the shooting, and started imme-
diately up TO Bryan street where the
shooting was in progress. At the corner
of Farm street he met Jones running
down Bryan street with his pistol in his
hand. Jones ran squarely into Detective
MOrgan's arms and was under arrest be
fore he knew what had happened. De
tetive Morgan was just putting the cuffs
on him when Stevenson came running up
with Detective BOsseu. Jones swOre he
would not be taken by them, and strug-
gled at a lively rate for awhile, but was
soon subdued. He was taken to the bar
racks and charges preferred against him
as stated.
Jones claimed that he was only fooling
when he threatened to shoot the woman,
and that there was no reason for Steven
son to try to shoot him.
He was evidently in a shooting humOr,
however, and stated his willingness to
shoot the affair out if they would take off
his handouts.
Lee Page was taken to his home in the
police ambulance. His wound is not
thought to be dangerous.

ALTvELx SUNDAY AT rYBEE.
The Island Growing in Popularity As
a Georp-ia Resort.

"a @N9AA ia nNH04ts
A noteworthy feature in the annals Of
Tybee yesterday was the large number Of
people from outside Of Savannah, who
came down just to see the island and the
sea.
The Central brought down sixty-fve
passengers for Tybee from Atlanta and
along the main line on the
Nancy Hanks Saturday night, and
yesterday morning tweuty-eight more
were added TO the list. The
Auusta special which came down yester-
day morning also brought about $50 pas
sengers, most of whom went on down to
Iybee and altogether there We're 300
or 400 people from outside of
savannah who spent yesterday on the
island. This is a striking evidence that
the resort is growing in popularity with
the people Of Georgia. aud from the looks
of things this season another hotel will
have to be put up next summer to accom-
modate the crowd
Altogether 1,200 to 1,5O0 people went to
Iybee yesterday The 2:30 train carried
down ten coaches each one heavily loaded
with passengers. The hotel was not only
crowded with guests, but several hun
dred visitors sat around on the piazza and
in the pavilion to enjoy the cool sea
breezes. While the surf was not heavy,
terday afternoon, and the visitors
most of them enjoyed plunge, one of the
main features which attracted them.
On Friday afternoon at Hotel Tybee
the children INDUCED in the pleasures of
dance in the big dining room from
which the tables and chairs had been re-
moved for the occasion. The ball
was managed by Mrs. Jacob
Lippman, who spared no effort to make
the affair the success which it was. The
march, which was an interesting feature
of the dance, was led by Miss Hazel Haas
and Master Sidney WelhOuse Dancing
and refreshments were INDUCED in during
the afternoon, and the affair was one of
the most pleasant of the season.
Yesterday afternoon there were large
schools of jelly fish in the surface waters
at Tybee, and almost every one who went
in was a sufferer because of their pres
ence. When they strike the flesh they
produce sharp singing sensation which
is often felt for sometime after it is in
tlicted. The effects of the sting often re-
main several days.
A great many of the bathers yesterday
were complaining of the Jelly fish, and
very few would risk it in the water for
fear of this disagreeable sting.
Mr.. Herman Myers and Mr.. A. S.
Eichberg are summering at Tybee in
a well-equipped and convenient cottage
near the hotel.
Among the well-knOwn visitors at the
hotel Tybee yesterday were Mr.. Cecil
Gabbett. general manager OF the Sam
road; Judge jim Anderson of Atlanta,
and Mr.. S. L. McClesky of the Richmond
and Danville.

BEFORE THE COMMISSIONERS.
Guard Pease win Tell Them What He
Knows About Thompson's Death.

Guard Pease win Tell Them What He
Knows About Thompson's Death.
The investigation with regard to the
rumors circulated about the death of the
convict Albert Thompson, will continue
to-day before the county commissioners.
Guard Pease, who administered whip
ping to the negro in the early morning
hours viii appear before the board, as
Will also all others from the camp who
know anything about it. The investiga-
tion viii be a thorough one and the com
missioncrs are determined to prove be-
yond the shadow of a doubt that the
punishment Thompson received had no
thing whatever to do with his death.
There is no doubt in the minds of any of
the board but that his death occurred
from being overheated, but the conflict
ing statements said to have been made by
Guard Pease have been worrying the
commissioners no little bit, and they
want to clear up that part Of the sto-
stand how it was that he told
Maj. Blandford that the negro died three
hours or more after the whipping was ad-
ministered, and stated to some one else
that he only filed one barrel, walked a
few yards and fell, after it occurred.
This appears rather unaccountable, and
they will ask to have it explained salts
factorily. While there is hardly IT posi-
bility of there being much foundation for
the rumor, the commissioners will probe
1t to the bottom and purge the court and
its officials from all shadow of suspicion.

IT WAS AN IDLE RUMoR.
Mr.. Conner Says There is No Truth in
the Story About the Shops Closing

Mr.. Conner Says There is No Truth in
the Story About the Shops Closing
Down.
Receiver Conner was back yesterday
from Macon, where he has been to attend
the hearing of an Intervention before
Judge Speer asAsng for the payment of
some of the Centrals debts.
Mr. Conner had very little to say about
the case there. He spoke of the fact that
the road had no money at present with
which to pay its debts, and this was
especially evident from the fact that it
was hard matter to get enough TO pay
its employees
1T is well known he said, "that this
is the dull season of the year with the
property, and it makes at this time little
if any more than operating expenses. This
year the dull season has been an especially
dull one for business, on account of the
prevailing stringency in all lines, and it is
a hard matter TO make even the operating
expenses.
There is no truth in the statement that
the shops will close down even for a day.
l don't know where the report origina ted
but there is no truth in it, and if there
had been l think l should have been
among the first to know it,

THE FIGHT ON PASTOR LOVE.
The Case to be Heard Before DIR. Good
win To- borrow Night.

Tomorrow night has been set for the
hearing of the charges brought against
Rev. E. II. Love by the disgruntled mem
bers of his congregation. Rev. Dr. Good
win will act as arbitrator by appointment
of the court.
No charges have been filed as yet
against Rev Love- and there is a posi-
bility that his opponents may fail to APP
pear. By the agreement made before the
court, Rev. Love is allowed two DAYS in
which to prepare his answer to the
charges which may be preferred against
him. He is so confident, however, of his
position, that he has announced that he
viii waive this privilege, and will answer
at once all charges that may be made.
Rev. Love S opponents have been keeping
very quiet of late, and have had nothing
to say, They may spring some new
question before the committee, however,
that will give affairs new turn. The
Love people are claiming that they have
already whipped the fight and that the
opposition will not appear before the
committee at all, but will endeavor to
carry the case into court again.
The charges made against Rev. Love
are of the most serious character in
Guiding adultery with the wife of a
brother minister, appropriation of the
church funds to his own use and violation
of the rules of the church in expelling
the members who were opposed to him
Rev. Love is supported by almost his
entire congregation which is the largest
in the city, and perhaps in the south
He has already been tried by a
committee of pastors and ac-
quilted of the most serious charge
against him some time ago. 1t is claimed
that his opponents are all expelled mem
bers of the church who were ex-commu-
nicated for serious offenses of various
characters, including rognery and that
they instigated tho charges against Rev.
Love in revenge for their expulsion.

TALK OF THE ELECTION.
Candidate Brown Says His Head is all
Right, But the Election Was Not.

Right, But the Election Was Not.
There was considerable talk about the
Fifth district election yesterday, and it
was generally conceded to be the live
liest and most exciting election
that has occurred in Chatham coun-
ty in recent years. There are nearly
a dozen names on the docket of parties
who were arrested for fighting, and on
other charges at the polls, which will
come before the recorder this morning
The cases are nearly all trivial and a
fine is about all most of the parties have
to expect.
Candidate Brown called at the MORN
ING NEWS Office last night to state that it
was another Brown whose head was split
open at the polls shortly after the election
begun, and that his head is unhurt Mr.
Brown does not believe that he was given
square deal by the managers, and
charges that numerous illegal votes were
outside the district, some of whom
he says were known to the
managers, while bona fide residents of
the district were kept from voting. He
also said there was considerab BILE money
spent at the election, chiefly for drink.
However, he, Brown, says that as he did
not get the Office himself he is glad
TO see MI. Smlth get IL. Black
and Nichols, the two colored candidates,
are determined uponla contest, and will
endeavor to prove all sorts of illegal &C
tiOns and irregular conduct upon the part
of the managers. They will make a
lively contest.
Lord" Cole is said to be disconsolate
over his defeat, and proposes to show that
the managers were prejudiced against
him and did not give him square deal
Lord Cole is satisfied that he dispensed
sufficient fees to secure some votes at
least and will make this point in his CON
test The refusal of the managers to re-
ceive his own vote will be instanced as
evidence of their unfairness
