LOOK OUT. AND LOOK our

We want again to warn Populists to
be vigilant on election day. Remem-
that in 1890 the Republicans stole the
state administration from US. In 1892
they stole the legislature, This year
they are far more desperate than ever
before, and far more dangerous, be-
cause the other years they were taken
by surprise, while this year they are
prepared.
The only safety is to guard the vot-
ing precincts. See to it that no fraud
ulent votes are cast, and then have
vigilant, trusty men to watch the
counting of the ballots aud take aceu-
rate account thereof. All the danger
there is lies in these places and in the
offices of friendly county clerks. Let
Populists be sure that they get an &C,
curate account from the tally sheets
and getthem certified to by some mem
Der of the election board, and any
frauds that may be attempted after
that will be completely headed off.

For attorney general you have Dawes,
Republican, man who collected
800 insurance policy and absolutely
refuses to render statement OF make
"a settlement with his client. This We
have charged him with time and again
and he does not deny it for it is true
and We can prove it. He knows it, also.
The Populists have Attorney General
Little, the first man the state has ever
had who would make railroad corpora
tons obey the law. We cite the case
against the Missouri Kansas & Texas
railroad. He is an honest gentleman
and the attempt to besmirch his clean
character comes from the enemies he
has made in performing his duty as
laid down in the books, without fear or
favor.
Our present state officials have met
every issue and every charge made
against them like men and not ignored
them as the Republicans in the charge
and proof about Morrill's land steal up
in Washington and Marshall counties.
In bidding you goodbye reader, let
me say that we have diligently
searched for some proofs Of the charges
made against the present administra-
ton and the nearest we ever got to it
was that the scum element in Kansas
City who has run things their own way
under Republican rule in former years,
raised the usual sum to buy the pres
ent state officials but it would not
work, This is matter Of record, and
the fact that the same element is fight
ing Lewelling for reelection, proves it.
Lewelling and the entire state ticket
will be elected and should be, as a re-
buke to the gang which has so persist
emily fought him from the day he was
inaugurated.
A late poll of the state shows we
have the vote to elect the Populist
ticket from top to bottom if the cleo
tors will only get out to the polls on
election day. Reader, if you want the
people to rule this state instead Of
political demagogues and corporations
go to the polls and vote. Go and see
that your neighbors go. Go, rain OF
shine, and there will be no question
but Lewelling, the great humanitarian
and statesman, viii be your next gov
ernOF.

A SAVANNAH POUCH IN 1T.
Money From Here Lost in the Quantico
Express Robbery.

The express robbery at Quantico was n
common topic of conversation in the city
yesterday. Employees at the Southern Ex-
press Companys Office said that it was
true that there was a Savannah pouch
on the car. but professed not TO know
how much money II contained.
The express company is very reticert
about giving out such information and
tho employees are not allowed to discuss
these matters with outsiders. Agent
Cooper, who has been sick for some time
was not at the office
In this connection it is recalled that the
men who robbed the Southern Express
COmpany's car at bonneville, on the Sa-
yannah, Florida and Western railway,
about four months ago, have never been
heard from, and the robbery seems to have
been forgotten. The robbers were said to
have secured about 100, but the exact
sum was never stated by the express
company. 1t may have been a great deal
more and it may have been less. Like the
Quantico robbers, the men are supposed
TO have been railroad men, because of
the manner in which they handled the
train. The opinion was expressed that If
the QuanticO robbers are not speedily run
down their apparent success would re-
suit in an epidemic of express robberies
all over the country

TO MEET TOMORROW NIGHT.
The COMMITTEES on the Freight Bureau
Will Talk over the Situation.

There will be a meeting of the general
committee appointed to make arrange
ments for organizing a freight bureau for
Savannah at the residence of Capt. D. G.
Purse tomorrow night at o'clock.
For the last two weeks the sub-com-
mittees appointed at a former meeting
have been at work canvassing the city
for subscribers 10 the bureau, and they
viii be ready at that time TO report what
they have accomplished. IL Is believed
that they have met with considerable
success, ana that arrangements can be
made for calling "a meeting Of the business
mon from whom the committee was ap-
pointed at an early date, The general COM
mittee win have considerable to report.
The statement that New orleans was
doing business in Savanuahs territory
over the Florida Central and Peninsular
railroad, and, in a great measure, to the
exclusion Of Savannah goods, has stirred
the merchants of this city to consider
able extent. II is said that inquiries were
made at several places in Southwest
Georgia, and it was found that il many
of the railroad warehouses and as near to
Savannah as BlaclIshcar, that there We're
quantities of goods shipped from New
Orleans. The Savannah merchants will
not take readily to this state of affairs,
and there are one or two at least, who
know just what is being done in some
instances, who are more eager than ever
before for the establishment of a Savan-
nah freight bureau.

Collector of Customs Beckwith who has
taken an active interest in securing it,
received a telegram yesterday in reply to
one sent the day before urging the inn
portance Of the erection of the ball. The
telegram is from the chief of the hydro
graphic bureau and says:
Washington, d. c., oct. 13.-Collector Of
Customs, Savannah, Ga: The time ball
is now being manufactured, and'is nearly
finished. The work has been delayed by
new improvements and by the inventor
absence. 1t will he completed very soon.
The difficulty is in securing a suitable
officer to put in charge. ] trust to have
one ordered to Savannah shortly.
c. d. Sigsbee, photographer
Collector BeclIwith will urge that a sue
cessor TO Ensign Scales be appointed at
the earliest possible date in order that the
time ball may be erected and put in oper-
alton for the benefit Of the maritime inter
ests here during the winter season.
The cotton exchange has been selected
as the location for the ball. That was
settled some time ago by the directors Of
the exchange. The cotton exchange is a
better point of observation than the roof
OF either the custom house or the board
of trade building. The ball can be seen
from almost any point in the harbor, and
chronometers can be corrected without
the necessity of taking them to the hy-
geographic office.

The Last Seen of Joe Pelot of the Bark
Mary 8. Ames.


Mary 8. Ames.
The Smith & Kelley Company is in re-
ceipt of letter from the United States
vice consul at Tamatave, Madagascar in
which he states that the sailor who was
the only survivor from the mates boat,
which left the bark Mary S. Ames, which
was lost on the coast of Africa, saw Joe
Pelot for the last time in a drowning
condition. He was dashed to a keg, but
the sea was rough and the chances, the
sailor said, were that the boy was
drowned.
An account of the loss of the bark Mary
$. Ames and the subsequent story about
the captains boat having been saved
with Capt. Knowles, his wife, child, Glenn
. Byrne of this city and several others,
has been previously published in the
Morning News. The mates boat was lost,
and only one man succeeded in getting
ashore. He was afterwards found by the
survivors of the captains boat.
Joe Pelot went from Savannah as cabin
boy on the vessel. In a letter from Glenn
O'Byrne some months ago he stated that
Pelot and another sailor had run away
from the vessel, The last story shows
that he must have returned to her to
meet his death. He had several relatives
living in this city.

GAME NEAR BEING CAUGHT.
The Thief Who Broke Into Jaudon'i
Clothing Store Eseeped.

The Thief Who Broke Into Jaudon's
Clothing Store Escaped.
The thief who smashed in the Bryan
street window Of ". A. Jaudon's store
is bold one. The window was broken in
At 1890 o'clock, and as an immediate
alarm was given the thief or thieves made
on at once. Half an hour afterward as
two gentlemen were coming along Bryan
street, they saw the thief back at the
window. As was afterward found, he was
engaged in picking out the glass prepara-
tory 10 entering the place.
When the negro saw he was watched he
started off in g, slow walk, which he
duickened into q run when ne saw that
he was followed. A young man who was
on watch on the opposite side of the
street darted after the thief pistol in
hand.
The fellow darted down the market
basement, however, and escaped. He is
supposed to have gone into one of the
colored restaurants in the market base
ment, where he mingled with the crowd
of negro loafers to be found there at all
hours of the night.
Detective Bossen was watching the thief
from the st. Julian street side, the glass
door giving him clear view through the
room as the gas was lit. He saw the
negro picking out the pieces of broken
glass from the window and was waiting
for him to enter the store in order that he
might catch him in the act. He was very
much disguised at the manner in which
his game was flushed.
There are believed to have been three
negroes in the party which attempted to
rob the store as a party of three contin-
ually hung around the place all night,
apparently watching for a, chance to COM
pete the job The market basement is
said by the detectives and the police gem
orally, to be great resort for thieves,
the negro restaurants furnishing them a
convenient loafing place.

CLOSE TO TEE FROST LINE.
The Weather Bureaus Warning to
Farmers Over the State.


Farmers Over the State.
Mercury went close to the frost line last
night. 1t was the coolest night that has
been experienced this season. Light frosts
were predicted by the weather bureau for
Georgia, and there were some fears of a
light frost In the vicinity of Savannah.
Yesterday mercury was down to So de-
grees. The$highest it got during the day
was 67 degrees. The mean was 81 degrees
or degrees below the average. The high
est temperature anywhere in the Savan-
nah district of the cotton belt was IS de-
grees, and the lowest was 46 degrees. The
maxim was reached at Americas AMI
Eastman, and the minimum at Americas,
Eastman, Fort Gaines and Millen. The
temperature was, it is believed, consider
ably lower than this at all of these places
last night, and there was little doubt of
frost this morning.
The indications sent out from the
weather bureau at midnight were cooler
this morning, followed by warmer to-
night, with north to northeast winds.
Many flower gardens were protected
last night against a possible frost, and II
is not unlikely that the protection was
timely.
