OF course. you've spanned the continent and

But did YOU over stop at a place called Unp-

UNDER A PILE OF LUMBER.
A LonEshoreman Crushed to Death at
the Central Railroad Wharf.


the Central Railroad Wharf.
Sol Smith, a negro Iougshoremau. met a
horrible death yesterday afternoon,
about 30 O'Clock. Smith was employed
by Sam Daniels. a colored stevedore. who
was engaged in loading the schooner Jen-
ME s. Hall at the lumber wharf Of the
Ocean Steamship Company
There was large pile of lum Der on the
dock, from which the gang had been
loading the vessels. The lumber had
been piled for. some time, and was tilted
considerably to one side, so there was
imminent danger of its topping over.
The men had been warned Of the danger
of the lumber falling, and told to keep
from under il. When the gang knocked
of work at / o'clock for dinner Smith
crawled under the lumber pile for the
purpose Of taking a nap. He went to
sleep, and probably never woke up again.
About l clock some of the men
noticed the skids which sustained the
lumber giving away and called 10 Smith
10 get out. He probably never heard
them, for almost immcd lately the skids
gave away precipitatinc the lumber upon
Smiths body. The timbers were very
heavy and the body was crushed to a
shapeless mass. One end of a large tim
Der, oxl6, struck Smiths head, MASKING
il TO pulp.
The men on the wharf set to work as
rapidly as possible removing the timbers
but their work was of no avail, as it was
evident that the man had been killed
Immediately The coroner was notified
and the body was removed to his home at
CUYler and New Houston streets.
A sister of Smiths was killed several
months ago by being run over by a
switching engine near the water works.
Coroner Dixon was not in the city yes
terday, and the facts will be reported TO
him on his return to-day when 1t will be
determined whether an investigation or
an inquest is necessary.

TO BE DONE AT ONCE.
The City to Put a STOP to Using the
Streets for Droveways.

An ordinance viii be introduced at an
early meeting OF the city council to regu-
late the driving Of cattle through the
streets. Such an ordinance would have
been placed upon the books long ago but
for the impression that an ordinance for
this purpose did exist. This impression
was general both among the city officials
and the stock dealers and butchers, and
as the latter were careful not to violate
an ordinance which they believed to be
in existence. this belief practically obvi-
ated the necessity for such law.
1t was not until recently, when butcher
was placed upon the docket for driving
cattle across the city. that it was discov-
cred that no such ordinance existed. The
butchers have been driving cattle across
the streets freely a all hours of the day
since, and the several instances which
have occurred since of stampeding cattle
through the streets, frightening women
and children and endangering life and
property, and which have been aired in
the MORNING News, have served to con-
vince the public generally of the need of
an ordinance upon the subject.
Mayor McDonough, when seen yester-
day by MORNING News reporter, said
that he intended to see to it that such an
ordinance is introduced in council at an
early date There is no doubt of the
need of the ordnance he said, land one
would have been introduced long ago, but
for the fact that I was under the i'm
preston that there was such a one already
upon the books"
The mayor was asked if there would
not have to be some provision in the ordi-
nance TO allow the butchers and cattle
dealers to get their cattle across the city.
."Of course" he replied The ordi-
nance " i'll probably specify certain hours
when there are few people on the streets,
between which cattle may be driven
along the streets"
AS the city ordinances are very strict
in regulating the driving of horses and
mules through the street and the running
of cattle at large, the impression nat
urally existed that the driving of cattle
through the streets was also regulated by
ordinances.

SAYS he Is WHITE.
James Reed Charged With Mlsoegena-
ton,

James Reed, who was in jail about two
days on a charge of miscegenation, was
released yesterday by Solicitor General
Fraser on his own recognizance, and the
case will be investigated before the city
court next Saturday morning.
The case is a peculiar one. Reed was
arrested on a warrant sworn out by Rad
Clife Crosby, before Justice Bevans He
was married in 1884, it appears, by JUS
tice Naughtin, to Martha Grooms and
the marriage license designates both the
parties as white. Crosby is a cousin of
Reeds wife. 1t is claimed that Reed
used to live near Savannah but moved up
in the Eighth district, near POoler, some
time ago, when he was threatened with
prosecution on the same charge.
Reed says he was married in Savannah
about ten years ago by minister named
Crawford He claims he is white, and
says If there is a drop of negro blood in
him he don't know it. He has several
children, and it is said there has been
nothing to indicate the presence of negro
blood.
When he appeared in the Office of the
solicitor general with his wife yester-
terday Reed looked as white as she did
His wife said IFS she thought he had any
negro blood she would not live with him
any longer. She states that the prosecu-
tion of her husband by Cros-
by is due to little dis
pute which they had some
time ago over a gun. She says Crosby
brought the gun to Reed and wanted to
get some money on it, saying he was sick
Reed then according to her story, let
him have - for the gun at his request.
Crosby, she says. afterward
brought suit for the gun in
justice court. in which her husband gained
tue case. This, she believes. is the rea-
son why Crosby has taken the action he
has.
1t is said there is no evidence that
Reed is q colored man, and that such
would not be thought to be the case from
his appearance

Temperature Below the Average.
For the first time in two weeks the
temperature yesterday was below the
average. The highest that mercury
went was IS degrees. The mean temper
ature was rs degrees, or two degrees be-
low the normal
In spite of the cool breeze that blew
most of the day some people called it
warm. That was probably from habit
acquired in the last week or ten DAYS in
the excessive hot weather that has pre-
vailed. The rainfall was fraction less
than half an inch.
The weather bureau indications at
midnight were for unsettled weather to-
day, with occasional rains, accompanied
probably by thnnderstorms. Slight
changes in temperature is the way the
weather bureau puts it.
In spite of the cool weather in Savan-
nah, there were few hot places scat
tered throughout the state. Americus,
Balm bridge, Townsville and Gainesville,
Fla, kept up their usual average Each
reported ga. Albany, Allapaha. East

A Prominent Business Man Looking

prominent business man q few days ago.

to attend to in my line of trade, outside of
giving orders to headquarters and seeing
that the supplies are properly disposed

details which require close attention, and

the leading dealers and make arrange
ments for the seasons business"
The gentleman who made the above re-
marks was Fl. Logan, who had just re-
turned from his trip to Florida, where
he had been making arrangements to fur
nish the winter hotels with his excellent
meats. He remained in the city a day or
two, and straightway got off again for
the west. Chicago is his objective point,
but he will visit all of the leading mar
kets and arrange for his supplies for the
winter. No man in business pays more
attention to the minute details than does

Letters have also been addressed by
Mr.. Berner TO each of the party nomi-
nees in every county ia the state urging
their cooperation in organizing the party,
and getting larger ma critics this year

appeal is made TO each of the nominees to
see that nothing is left undone to achieve
the greatest victory possible.

DOUBT ABOUT THE AMENDMENT.
Chow about the constitutional amend
ment providing for two more justices of
the supreme COURT" was asked
i ANhL FNAJ Autn, was the reply,
that it will be defeated The people
down in South Georgia are all right. but
when 1t comes TO the northern part of
the state, the people are opposed to
creating any new O1ices. They are OPP
posed to what looks to them like add
tioual expenses, and the outlook seems
that 1t will not get the requisite ma
jority."
rs there a general and widespread in
terest in the senatorial race"
Yes, IT seems to be the talk on every
hand. The race is badly mixed and it is
hardly pro Oable that any Of the caudi-
dates viii appear before the legislature
with enough votes to nominate Some Of
the candidates are hard at work, how
ever, ana 1t seems they are endeavoring
to secure all the advantage possible"
MR.. CLAY A HARD WORKER
Mr. Clay is undoubtedly hard worker.
Until the last day or two. he has had the
work Of the office almost entirely upon
himself Chairman Berner of the cam
palgn committee has recently come TO his
assistance. Until he did, Chairman Clay
attended to all the mail, and MANAGED to
keep two stenographers busy during the
entire day. He Is in the office from
O'Clock in the morning until o'clock at
night, and for the next fifty days there
viii probably not be a harder worked
man in the state than is the chairman of
the executive committee. Not only does
he have to aid in making all arrange
ments for the speakers, and attend to his
large and bulky mail, but he must stop
and talk to every crossroads politician
who enters his Office, whether it is about
a sheep or calf for some country demo-
cratic barbecue or arrangements for an
important rally in doubtful section.

The meeting for discussion between Mr.

account of the absence of MIR. Pope. who

The meeting has been very mucn de-
sired by those of Savaunah's business
men who are more closely and directly in

reason 1t was much regretted that Mr.
