ALLEN G. THURMAN, one Of the
ablest democratic statesman in the
United States, is on the right side
Of the silver question. He is a
most pronounced free silver man
and has sent the following tele-
gram to Senator Cockrell: Us it
possible that the United States
senate, now democratic, is to be
bulldozed into the demonetion of
silver?' If Thurman was back in
his old seat in the senate he would
represent the sentiments of the
people of the state of Ohio much
better than the nan who now oc-
cupies that seat. He would never
consent TO so undemocratic a pro-
ceeding as to demonetize silver
which has been held to be a money
metal by the democratic party
from the organization of the party
to the present time. 1t was recog-
nized by the party in the platform
adopted at the Chicago convention
and no consistent democrat can
vote for its demonstration. II
there are democrats who want to
demonetize silver let them go over
to the republican party where they
belong. The democratic senators
are not going to be bulldozed.

Six weeks from today the great
Columbian exposition at Chicago
will close. While the attendance
has not been SO large as was ex-
pected, it is the greatest exposition
ever held and will do this country
a great deal Of good. The exhibit
from this Territory during the
first half of the fair was not up to
the mark but now there is a very
fair exhibit Of fruits in addition
to the mineral exhibit. The mon
ey which was appropriated by the
Territory was not well spent and
it is quite probable that there will
be some interesting revelations in
the near future concerning the
way in which the money was
spent.

FREEZING WEATHER NOW.

The Temperature Fell to So Yester-
day and the Same Is Expected To
day.
The temperature fell to $50 yesterday,
which is about the lowest for this year,
and early in the morning things were
considerably frozen on the ground, which
gets much cooler than the surrounding
atmosphere. There is little doubt that
the time is about at hand to remove the
quaran inc from Brunswick.
The crest Of the cold wave moved rap
idly southeast Thursday night, and yes
terday morning covered Arkansas. 1t
has gradually drifted eastward, freezing
up everything in its path, and last night
was located in Tennessee. II is being felt
as far south as Key West, Fla, where the
temperature has fallen s.. In middle
Florida the temperature hasifallen 20 to
~ and at 5 O'Clock last night it stood
4S' at Tampa and 460 at Iitusville.
There is warm wave right behind it,
however, which may cause things TO take
a turn in a day or two. An area of low
pressure is moving in from the Rockies.
and is causing the temperature to rise in
all sections west of the Mississippi The
line of freezing temperature extends from
Norfolk, Va, southeastward TO Atlanta
and thence northeastward to North
Platte, Neb
The forecast for to-day promises freezing
weather for this morning, but il will grow
slightly warmer during the day and to-
night, and warmer still Sunday. The
weather will be fair with northwest
winds

COULDN'T TELL WHERE.
A Yamacraw Man Uncertain froI
Whence He Got His Sunday Whisky

A Yamacraw Man Uncertain from
Whence He Got His Sunday Whisky.
Daniel Deiguan, who keeps saloon at
No. 6S Indian street, answered the charge
of selling liquor on Sunday in the record
er's court yesterday morning. The casa
against Deignan grew out of the beating
of H. X. Loftin in Yamacraw last Sun
day Loftin was attempting to purchase
liquor, and was mistaken for one of the
mayors spies. Deignan and William
COnnOrs were arrested for beating Loftin.
Felix MCGEE, who agreed to get the liquor
for Loftin, and Fitz johnson and
PREACHER Brown, who were with him,
were also arrested. The evidence
developed that the negroes secured
whisky with the money given them by
LOftin, though it is not certain that he
got it.
against Deignan for assault will probably
be dropped for lack of evidence unless
he returns to the city.
The testimony in the recorders court
yesterday morning as to how the whisky
was procured was very indefinite and it
is doubtful if a conviction can beobtained
upon the evidence given.
Johnson. to whom Lotion gave the
money to get the whisky said that he and
keeps a small cook shop, and asked him to
get the whisky. Brown went
off with the money but
came back, saying he could not get the
liquor Upon being urged, however, he
made another trial and was successful,
returning with two half pints of whisky.
Johnson and MCGEE said that Brown did
not leave his house to get the whisky.
Brown testified that he did leave his
house and got the whisky, but said he
did not know whose place he got it from.
He told a very improbable story about
somebody handing him the whisky from
house. He did not see the person who
handed it to him and did not know who
it was. He only saw hand, he said. He
could not locate the place. Browns
story appeared very fshy.
M. A. O'Byrne, Esq, counsel for
Deignan, requested that the case be con-
tinued until this morning, when he pro
poses to produce ample evidence to show
that Brown could not have gotten the
whisky from Deignans. The request
was granted

THE POLES MUST GO.
South Broad Street No Longer TO Be
Defaced By Them.

South Broad street property owners
are inquiring why it is that while the
track Of the Electric railways branch on
that street has been removed by the COM
pany, the poles which supported the troll
ley wire. are allowed to remain. They
are Unsiehtly and iniure the appearance
of the street. As they are no longer used.
the residents along the street are desir-
Gus that they should be removed at once.
. The MORNING NEWS called attention 10
the matter some time ago.
Mayor McDOnOugh YVES asked yeSter-
day how 1t was that the poles had been
allowed 70 remain while the track had
been removed. the city ordinance req uir-
ing any street railway company abandon
ing any portion of its track 10 remove all
Of its track, crosstles, poles and other
distractions which had been used IN
the operation Of the abandoned line.
He replied that when the Llec-
trio railway was ordered TO remove
its track on South Broad street,
President Collins requested that the
poles be allowed to remain, as it was the
intention Of the Peoples Electric Light
and Power Company, which was then OPP
Grated by the railway company, TO use
them for its electric light wires. As the
request appeared reasonable, it was
granted, and the poles were allowed to
remain. since mat time, however, the
Peoples Light and Power Company has
been absorbed by the Brush Electric
Light and Power Company. The latter
company has its own poles on South
Broad street, and is not using the poles
LETT by the Electric Railway Company
This being the case, there does not APP
rear TO be any reason why the poles
sholld not be removed.
Mayor McDonough said that if the
poles are not to be used they will have to
be removed. AS The Brush Company has
all the poles II can use on South Broad
street, it does not seem that it can claim
that the poles left by the Electric rail
way are necessary to its business.
The residents Of the street and those
interested in preserving its appearance
are anxious that the poles be removed at
once, as they are veryo unsightly and
an injury to the appearance Of the hand
soonest street in the city.

NOT PRINoEroN's CAPTAIN.
Savannah's Foot Ball Players Are All
Home Mon.

The foot ball game between the Savan-
nah team and the State University team.
will undoubtedly be the most interesting
Thanksgiving day event. The local team
is practicing six nights week now, under
direction of Capt Walker. The team is
in good condition and will give the uni
versity boys lively tussle.
The report that Capt. Trenchard, of the
Princeton University team, would play
on the Savannah team is entirely inCor-
rect and does the team n great injustice
Savannah is not sending north for mate
rial to strengthen its team. There was
no foundation for the report Mr.. w. E.
Trenchard, Lehigh University gradu-
ate, was in Savannah last week with a
view TO locating here. Mr. Trenchard
and Capt. Walker, of the Savannah
team, were classmates, and the former
suggested to the latter that he be
allowed to play on the team
as full back in the place of Mr.. K. c..
practice. 1t was agreed that in case Mr..
O'Byrne was unable to play that Mr.
Trenchard should take his place, pro-
vided the arrangement should be agreed
to by the captain of the University team.
Mr. O'Byrne will probably be able to
play, however, and Mr.. Trenchard will be
given place as a substitute.
Mr.. Trenchard is a private tutor of
Millionaire Carnegie's SON. who is prepar-
ing 10 enter Yale. His brother, j. r.
Trenchard, is captain Of the Princeton
team. II was, probably, the confusion of
these two facts that caused the report
that the captain of the Yale team would
play with the Savannah team.

DR.. HAMmoND's WORK.
He Conducts the First of a Series Of
Meetings


Rev f. p. Hammond, the distinguished
evangelist who will spend several days in
religious work in Savannah, held his
first service at the Independent Presby-
terrain church yesterday afternoon at 4
O'Clock A very good audience attended,
the young people being in the majority.
DR.. Hammond took charge of the SER
vice, and soon had his audience inter
ested. His talk was especially directed to
the children. He has winning way with
children, and there is no doubt that
those who attended the service
enjoyed it. A number expressed a desire
for conversion when the opportunity was
given, and several remained after the
service TO converse with DR. Hammond.
The older people, too, were interested
Several of the ministers of the city
were present. Rev. DIR. Bowman, of the
Wesley Monumental church, announced
the services, which have been arranged
so far for Mr. Hammond
similar meeting will be held in the
Independent Presbyterian church this
afternoon at the same hour, and q mass
meeting of the same character for chill
dren and everybody in the Wesley Memo
rial church tomorrow afternoon. DR.
Hammond will also preach at night in the
Independent Presbyterian chHrch Mon
L
church another service will be held by
Mr. Hammond
Rev c. l.. Thompson, D. D., now pastor
of one of the largest churches in New
York city, thus writes of MIR Hammond's
services and methods: "The substitution
Of Christ in the sinners place; the full
satisfaction to Divine Justice; the full
justification of the sinner in Gods sight
on account of the SaviOur's work, and the
believers privilege to live ever in the
light Of conscious acceptance with God,
are the notes that he is never weary Of
ringing in the peoples ears. His power
of illustration is remarkable.
His manner of preaching is in harmony
with the matter of IL. Buoyant, almost
boyish, with certain physical exuber-
ance, with fine Communicating of joyful
ness and seriousness, he commends his
religion as something that will give relish
to this life as well as blessedness to the
next. He is no ascetic, removed from the
people and shading their thoughts with
pictures of religious gloom. He brings q
dash of Christian sunlight and breath
of free Christian courage and hope with
every sermon. Add to this his earnest
ness, which never weakens; his direct
ness of purpose, which never swerves,
and he is before us as an evangelist, a large
measure of whose success is IN his loyalty
to the truth, his sense of its power. his
wisdom in presenting it, and his earnest
ness in enforcing it, as the very word OF
God-the charter of Christian liberty and
the guide to happy Christian life and
work.

PETITIONS TO GO UP.
The Registration Bill Fight Taking a
New Turn.

A petition to the legislature Is being
circulated, urging that body against the
Doolan registration bill.
The petition is being numerously
signed by the business men. In fact, very
few to whom the petition has been pre-
sented for signature have declined to
sign it. The heading of the petition states
in strong, but respectful terms the belief
of the signers that the proposed change
in the registration law would not be for
the best interests of the citizens of the
county, and that in their opinion it is
mere political move to place the registra-
ton in the hands Of faction.
The supporters Of the bill are also cir
culating petitions memorializing the leg
islature in its favor.

sEwELLs TURNED LOOSE.
His Arrest, However, Thought to Have
Furnished a Clew to Ford's Murder.

Jim Sewells, the negro who was ar
rested by Detective Morgan day before
yesterday on suspicion of having been
concerned in the murder of Henry Ford,
whose body was found in boat in the
river, was released yesterday because he
was not identified by the Southern Cot
ton Oil Mill hands as the party who was
going up the river thatafternoon attempt
ing to head the boat of.
There is no doubt, however in the off,
GERS minds, that his arrest furnished
some clew to the murder, but there was
no evidence on which to hold him Moth
ing was known with regard to him in
connection with it, other than that he
helped Ford TO load and unload his boat
the day he came to the city and went
back only to meet his death. Sewells was
taken out to the oil mill yesterday morn
ing, but the hands there, who had seen
the men pass looking for the boat, which
they seemed to want to head OF, stated
positively that he was not one of the
three men they had seen. He was then
released.
Sewells claimed that there was an old
man and his two sons in the shop at the
time Ford was showing his money, and
he thought they would know something
about the killing. The question now is,
where is that man and his sons? They
may have been the parties who were seen
going up the river that afternoon, as there
were three of them in all, two in one
party, and one in the other. The matter
VIII be thoroughly investigated.
