Savannah's Clearings Nearly a Mil
lion Dollars L anger This Week Than
Last.
The Savannah clearing house makes an
excellent showing for the week which
ended yesterday. The bank clearings for
the week reached the enormous sum of
24s,476.47, against 81 ,463, s7342 for the
week ending Sept. 7.
The clearinEs for the second week of
September last year corresponding to the
week just closed were 81 ,53S, 51I67. This
shows an increase of nearly 81 200, 900
both over last week and the same week
of last year.
The large increase in the clearings is
undoubtedly due to the increased
rapidity of the movement of the
cotton crop, and that which is to
be moved within the next few DAYS.
great deal Of money has been going into
the country for the purpose of moving the
crop, and it is beginning to show up well
In the bank clearings at the ports
savannah shows a larger amount of
clearings this week than any of the South
Atlantic and gulf ports Naval stores
has had very little if anything to do with
increasing the clearings, as the movement
OF that product has been smaller than
usual during the last month or two IL is
probable that the cleariugs will keep up
this way for some time TO come

THE TOO READY REVOLVER.
Charlie Cox Shoots Ttnk Williams
in a Dispute Over % Cents.

Charlie Cox Shoots Ttnk Williams
in a Dispute over % Cents.
Charlie Cox used his pistol too freely
last night and is now in the barracks from
where he will very likely be sent to Jail
this morning on the charge of assault
with intent to murder.
Cox and Tink Williams both colored,
met at East Broad and Charlton streets
last night about 9 o'clock. Williams, it
seems, stood Cox's security at barber
shop some time ago for % cents. When
the two met Williams demanded
that Cox pay him the % cents, which the
latter refused to do. Cox had an
umbrella in his hand which Williams
seized and started off with saying that
he would keep it until Cox paid him.
When Williams did this Cox drew his pis-
tol and fired at Williams, the bullet
striking him in the breast Cox ran, but
was pursued by two white men, who ran
him down and turned him over to a DO
liceman
Williams was not seriously hurt, and,
after having his wound dressed by a
physician, came to the barracks, where
he told his story of the affair sub.
stantially as given above. Cox claimed
that Williams had a pistol also, which
the la tier denied

THE BUSINESS REVIVAL.


What the New York Agent of the
Ocean Steamship Company Says
oft.
r. L. Walker, general manager of the
Ocean Steamship Company of Savannah,
says the New York Times, said that
business with his line was brisk, and
that there was no cause for complaint on
account of the lack of eargoes.
I'VE are now he said, running three
boats a week, and expect to put on an extra
one later on. Orders are coming from all
sections of the country where we act as
transports, and our outward cargoes are
now very heavy. We expect a great in
crease in the inward shipments of raw
material, cotton, etc.
Business is certainly better with US
now than il has been in long time. The
final disposition of the tariff, [ suppose
has had much to do with the renewed
prosperity ! noticed that almost imme-
dlately after the House accepted the Sen
ate amendment business began to i'm
prove. However that may be. business is
better now than it has been in the last
two or three years "

who was arrested Thurday by Detective
Bossell, was sentenced to thirty days in
Jail and turned over to the superior court
by Recorder Wilson yesterday morning.
Brown was identified by two of Col
HarmOn's men as one of the principals in
Saturday mornings fight. John Williams
the cOlOred foreman who was shot in the
Jaw, testified that Brown was the man
who jumped upon Foreman Cain and
stamped him in the head after he was
down
Brown endeavored to prove an alibi, but
was not successful He proved by Henry
Garwes, who keeps a store at Hunting
don and West Broad streets, that he was
IN the store shortly after s o'clock Satur-
day morning. Mr.. Garwes had heard of
the riot and told Brown of it when he
came into the store, which Brown
claimed was the first knowledge he had
OF the riot. The recorder was of the
opinion that as MIR. Garwes had heard of
the riot, that Brown had had plenty of
time to get back to that part of the city
Mark Cain who was so badly beaten

The committee on appeals is now in ses-
sion. The deliberations of this commit
tee are very important. It's dOings, how
ever, are not of general interest and are
not even divulged 10 the members of the
order until the grand lodge reviews its
work, which consists in the examining of
pleas and appeals from subordinate
lodges which may have no grand lodge
over them, or from such lodges which,
having submitted their case to the grand
lodge above them, are dissatisfied with
the decision rendered. In the Indian ter
rtory, for instance, there are
subordinate lodges, but there
is in that territory no grand
lodge Then appeals from the subordi-
nate lodges there come direct to the COM
mlttee on appeals and from that commit
tee those appeals or pleas go to the grand
lodge next week If the territory's
lodges had above them a territorial grand
lodge the appeal would 20 there, and if
the decision made was unsatisfactory it
would be again appealed to the sovereign
grand lodge through the committee on
appeals.
The grand lodge will be in session the
entire week. There is not known TO be
any matter Of great importance to be dis
cussed. 1t is impossible, however to tell
what may come up when the lodge is in
session.
