The principal topic in business and political
circles yesterday was the discovery Of the rela-

which revealed a amentable want Of integrity
and bunted sense of honor on the part of that
State official. He had placed S250,000 Of the
States money in this shaky concern, and had
then accepted personal loan of $4,000 from the
bank, for which he furnished no other security
than the indorsement of Charles NJ. Church, son
Of his deputy, George b. Church, young man
who has just passed his twenty-frst birthday.

BAY STREETS ON.
The Central Railroad Team Defeated
2toI

One Of the best amateur games Of ball
seen in savannah was played az the Boil
ton street grounds yesterday, between
the Central Railroad and the Bay street
teams. These are two strong baseball
aggrega tious, and the score below shows
the kind OF a game they put up The
crowd was small, but that was doubtless
owing TO the threatening weather. The
next game between these two clubs will
draw largely Now that professional
ball is no more the fans will patronize
the amateurs. There are three or four ex-
cellent teams in the city, and from now on
to the end of the season will be some
good playing.
In yesterdays game the pitchers CON
tested for the honors. But two safe hits
were made on each side. The pitchers
also felded in great style, Tyson having
six assists and no errors, and Krenson
seven assists with no errors in his column.
Hertz's base running and his two Dagger
were the features of the game.
The following is the score.
