HAD ROOM FOR MORE.
A Pointer on How Savannah Slows
Cotton Vessels.

The Spanish steamship Julio, which has
been undergoing repairs at this port
sailed for barcelona yesterday. IL will be
remembered that the Julio. was lowed
here about "a month ago in distress 10y the
British steamship Hndustan. She had
sailed from Charleston with a cargo of
cotton consisting of $500 bales for Bar
celona, and when few hours at sea. be
came disabled, having broken her shaft
and propeller wheel.
The steamer was lowed into this port
and contract was given to John Rourze
& Son to repair her. Her agent, Mr.. a.
r. Moynelo. and the insurance agents,
were well pleased with the work of the
contractors and "a surveying board. pro-
nounccd her I'm excellent condition to pro-
coed to her destination.
one of the most important features
about the circumstances connected with
the Julio. was the fact that the superiori-
~ of Savannah over other ports in stow
ing cotton was practically demons trated.
In order TO get the ship in a position to
properly adjust tho new shaft and wheel
it became necessary to discharge a part
OF her cargo. The contracts for unloading
and relOadiug was given TO Capt. Ybauez,
who discharged about one-third OF the
cargo from the stern of the ship, including
Sc bales on deck and 56 bales slowed in an
after compartment, not usually designed
for cargo. In reloading the cargo, these
~ bales were slowed in the hold, and, il
is said, that there was room enough left
for 200 bales more. The consignee of the
ship and others who are acquainted with
the business, say that il is their opinion
that the ship would have carried from 500
to 900 more bales if loaded at this port

TALK OF THE INVESTIGATION.
How 1t Was Looked Upon the Day
After 1t Took Place.


There was considerable talk yesterday
about the result of the investigation pro-
ceedings before the city council night be
fore last. There was general expression
of 4 told YOU so" on all sides. People who
were willing to admit that they expected
the charges against Mayor McDonough
and Aldermen OBrien and Mcmillan to be
sustained were hard to find One verdict
was that the whole thing was a farce and
that there was no good reasons why the
charges should have been brought
1T was we'll that the investigation was
held" said a friend of Mayor McDonough.
THE effect would have been very bad
had the charges been allowed to go I'M
heard after having been proclaimed in so
public manner. There are too many peo-
pie who are ready TO believe any evil re-
port which they hear of men in public po-
sition. was well that the charges were
disproven."
Mr.. w r. Leaken. who represented Mr.
Guilmartin a the hearing. confessed that
he was very much deceived in some Of
his witnesses. Those whom he had relied
upon to establish the most material points
i'm his charges went squarely back upon
him, he said Some Of these witnesses had
made statements to him or to Mir. Gull
martin which they refused to confirm upon
the stand. owing to the short time in
which ne had TO prepare the case Mr.
Leaken was unable to get his evidence in
satisfactory shape.
The fighting was forced from the other
side said Mr.. Leaken, and we had no
time TO secure other corroborative evil
dence which might have been obtained
had the hearing been adjourned over in
stead of being pushed through in one
nieht. 1t was very good policy for the
other side / admit"
