The Grand Jury Takes No Action.

The citycourt grand jury met yesterday
afternoon, and several witnesses were sum
moned before it to tell what they know
about the sale of Louisiana Lottery tick
cts in Savannah.
This action was taken in consequence of
a charge to that effect having been made
in the city court by Edward r. McKeth-
an, Esq, young attorney, which result
ed in Solicitor General Fraser summon
ing him before the grand jury to give his
testimony.
What Mr.. Mcclellan told the grand Jury
yesterday afternoon is not known, but he
made the remark to one of the court officials
afterward that he would not be summoned
before the grand jury again, as he had
never bought lottery ticket had no
reason to buy one, and knew nothing at
all about it. He seemed indignant that
he had been called before the grand jury
for the purpose of giving testimony in
regard to the matter
There were four or five other witnesses
before the grand jury on the same matter,
but from all accounts they were unable
to tell much, if they new anything at all.
The grand jury took no action whatever
in the matter, but deferred it for further
investigation. As they meet this after
noon at o'clock to make their general
presentments, they will probably take
the matter up again and sift it to the bot
tom at least that is the report.

Court Business Disposed Of
Business in the courts is dwindling
something to do every day, but most of
the cases of any consequence have either
been disposed of in one way or another
or continued for the term.
In the superior court, orders and inter-
ventions are granted almost every day,
final DEGREES are being taken and the bust
ness of the term is being gradually wound
up. The superior court will adjourn for
the term either Saturday or Monday.
After that time there will be no regular
session of court until the December term
begins. Judge. kalligant will be on hand,
however, from time to time for the pur-
pose of dispOsing of motions, interven-
tions and granting any orders necessary.
He will go on the circuit in Bryan county
in November.
The adjournment of the city court for
the term, too, is close at hand. Bust
ness in that court will be completed

Will take brief vacation, opening court

The terms of both courts have not
been uneventful, and both have disposed

OUT OF THE L. A. w.
The Savannah Wheelmen Withdraw
From the Big League.


The Savannah Wheelmen have with
drawn from the League of American
Wheelmen. The withdrawal was decided
upon at a meeting of the club last night
Heretofore membership in the league
has been a requisite qualification for
membership in the Wheelmen. A con-
siderable portion of the initiation
fee and dues of the club was
remitted to the league and went
into the hands of the officers of the Geor-
gia division.
Owing to the wheelmen having recently
opened their new club house, and the
fact that little or no benefit has been de-
rived from membership in the league as
club, it was decided TO return the char
ter. Membership in the league is no
longer, therefore, a qualification for mem
bership in the club, and any amateur
wheelman in good standing over Is years
of age, providedsthat he owns and rides
bicycle, is eligible to active membership,
and any person, upon election, is eligible to
associate membership, which confers all
the privileges OF the club except that of
holding office and voting.
The withdrawal of the club from the
L. A. w. does not do away with any of
the privileges it has held in the way of
race sanctions, which it was supposed
at the time the wheelmen be-
came league club it was
first necessary to obtain through mem
bership in the league
The withdrawal of the wheelmen will
in no wise affect the Georgia division of
the league, except it may somewhat re-
duce its membership.

The business of the new company will be
conducted at Mr.. ,Krouskohs old stand

may have occurred by his a9ts The
wayne first got behind was in this manner
he got money to loan to a woman on

borrow the money My son having it in
hand, concluded to use the money in his
business for short while with
the intention of repaying it in a
few days. When the time came
for him to make his showing he could not
gather up enough funds, and hence the
arrest. You can say positively that there
will be no criminal proceedings in the
case.

Brought to the City After All.
Capt. Carter is not satisfied with the
position in which the sunken bark Undine
has been left, and has ordered it removed
to place on the fats farther away from
the channel. The bark now lies a few
yards south of Venus Point
Capt. Jacob Paulsen, of the Savannah
Towboat Co., who furnished the tug for
hauling the bark from her
former position to where
she now lies, thinks it will be easier to
pump the mud out of the hull and float it,
than TO pull it any higher up on the fats
Loaded as it is now with mud. it would be
pretty hard work to get it in shallower
water. 1t is highly probable that this
course will be pursued, and that the hull,
which is valuable one, will be brought
up to the city and sold at auction. The
bark now lies ON it's SIDE in twelve feet of
water at high tide.

John Webb, the negro now in Jail con-
victed of murder, and who was sentenced
to the gallows, made an appeal for a new
trial before Judge Falligant yesterday,
through his attorneys, Messrs. G. I. &
j. F. Cam.
The grounds upon which the motion
was made were that the Judge had ex-
pressed in his manner of delivering his
charge the opinion he entertained that
the man was guilty. The defense also
claimed that Webb had epileptic fits, and
was at the time insane, and that he didn't
know the difference between right and
wrong. 1t was also stated that two. of
the jurors had said that the Judge had
made some remarks in his charge which
led them to believe that he thought Webb
guilty.
In opposing the motion the solicitor
general said juror had no right to at
tack his own verdict Judge Falligant,
too, said the charge made was untrue, as
he had said nothing in his charge to the
jury to indicate that he believed or was
of the opinion that Webb was guilty.
wEBB's CASE A PECULIAR ONE.
Webb was convicted of the murder of
Ananias Hill on February 6, 1891. He
said Hill had threatened his life and he
thought he had a right to kill him. He
went to Hills house one night and
dubbed him to death with billet of
wood and then shot him.
Webb then came into the city, went to
see the solicitor general and told him of
the circumstances. After relating the
history of the deed Webb asked if he
could go, but the solicitor very firmly
said no, and sent him to Jail.
When the trial came up, Solicitor
Fraser asked Webb why he didn't
shoot Hill at once instead
of clubbing him with the
stick
"The gun was old rand rusty" replied
Webb, land l was afraid it wouldn't
work.
In the appeal for a new trial it was
stated that party named Johnson, one
of the states witnesses, had told lie on
the witness stand and that Johnson
himself had said that he would tell the
truth about the matter, if a new trial
was granted.
A move was started to get up petit
ton to the governor, to have Webb's SEN
tence committed to life imprisonment.
but Webb said he did not want to go to
the penitentiary where he would have no
friends If he was guilty, he said
he thought ne ought to hang and wanted
to hang, but if not guilty he wanted to
so free. Hence the motion for the new
trial was made.
Judge Falhgant took the question under
Amusement and reserved his decision
