THE KAROw RIFLES CLAIMS


A meeting o. The KarOw Rides was held
at the residence Of Capt Fred schWarz
last night.
First Lieut.. u. L. Grayson announced
that Col LaWton had stated 10 him that
the officers OF the regiment were opposed
to the new c0mpanys being admitted TO
the regiment for the following reasons:
First. they did not want TO encourage dis
satisfied members Of other companies in
Withdrawing and forming a new com
pany; second. they did not believe that the
new company could sustain Itself; and
they were afraid it would draw heavily
from the membership Of other companies
In the regiment
The members regret that there is any op-
position 10 their being admitted 70 the
regiment, and appointed a committee TO
address letter 10 the officers assuring
them in answer 10 their objections that
the new company has about eighty mem
Ders almost entirely men not members
Of any Otner military OrganlZalloni mat
u Is fully prepared to make a showing
that II now has a permanent organlza-
tom mas adopted bylaws, elected officers,
ana intends commencing weekly drills next
Iuesddy night, and viii demonstrate the
fact II is thoroughly ia earnest, and IN
tends making Itself prOncient in the school
Of a soldier as rapidly as possible.
IL DINGF 10 put 10 silence the llhlnua-
uon that they are trying to disrupt any
other organization a resolution has been
passed 70 consider no applications from
men now members Of other companies.
The new company does not consider IT
taH 70 base an argument against IL from
the fact that Savannah now has more
military companies than other Georgia
cities, as 1t has been demonstrated thai
savannah is one OF the best military cities
IN the world IN proportion 10 its pOpula-
ton. A new company 10 form the sixth
or the First regiment would give TO each
battalion three Savannah companies and
spirit OF friendly rivalry could not Dc
otherwise than to operate toward increa ,
ed proficiency
The new company is not trying to an.
tagonize any other company, and hopei
to induce the officers of the regiment tc

THE PEOPLES CANDIDATE.

This fall promises to be lively in politics
and business. Notwithstanding the candi-
dates Of democrats, republicans, gold
standards, silverites. populists and prohi-
pitionists' and the usual unsettled state
of affairs, during a presidential campaign.
the prospects for a heavy and profitable
fall trade are encouraging. The farmers
have raised cotton which they could sell at
&C. and still come out even. while the pros
poets now are that they will get nearly
double that price. This will make lively
business in Savannah and help all depart
ments Of trade.

no opposition, and Who will receive the
support of all kinds of people, no matter
whether democrats, republicans, gold

THE CHARGES UNFOUNDED.
what MIR. Maybe Says of the Two In
dictments Against Him.

dictments Against Him.
Mr.. Thomas Maybe, against whom GER
tain charges have been made by painter
named Stewart, was seen yesterday by a
represe ntative Of the Morning News. Mr..
Maybe has been the superintendent Of the
White Ribbon mission at No. ia Broughton
stree. nearly FIVE years. and during that
time has conducted the mission to the
best satisfaction Of those connected with
it.
With reference TO the two indictments
found against him, Mr.. Maybe explained
that the charges made by Stewart had lit
tie or nothing to do with them. one of
the women, he stated, had been employ
ed as a servant at the mission for a short
while, and the other came there occasion
ally to beg. When he discovered they were
not proper characters to come there he
told them they must keep away, and en-
phasized his statement, he says, by sim
ply pushing them slightly, more of a ges-
ture than anything else, Indicating that
they We're to so to the door and out.
As regards Stewards charges, Mr..
Maybe says, and those who know him say.
there Is no truth whatever in them No
one has been allowed to bring liquor into
the mission, no drunken man has been
allowed to enter there, and never has
liquor been procured he states, for anyone
IN the place.
The other charges, Mr.. Maybe safes. are
equally false, and Stewart, the party who
preferred them, he says. did so because he
would give him no further employment
Mr.. Maybe minated very strongly that
the matter is not done with yet, but tina
something more viii be heard from il
within a short time.
