CITY BREyITIES.

James Wallace was docketed for lar
ceny.
John Mallon, Thomas Moore and w. E.
terday on charges of drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct
By an oversight the name of Mr. John
Fox, candidate for coroner, was omitted
from the ticket published at the head of
the report of the mass meeting in yes
terday's Morning News.
A meeting of the Savannah yacht club
was held yesterday to arrange for the re
pairs to the yacht club house which was
considerably injured by the storm The
damage is not very great, and will be
covered by a few hundred dollars.
The piece of ordnance surmounting the
armory of the Chatham artillery was
blown from its place by the storm, but,
true to his duty and ready to stand by
where his gun had been even, Capt. John
F. Wheaton remained, in statuary, at his
post
Mayor Myers received a telegram yes
terday from the Philadelphia Press, ask
ing if Savannah was in need of financial
assistance on account of the storm. The
mayor replied that no assistance was
needed, and thanked the Press for its ex-
preston of friendliness.
Col. w. W. Gordon was thrown from
his buggy at Abercorn and Gordon
streets yesterday, and narrowly escaped
serious injury. The step of his buggy
caught in a broken trolley WIRE and the
sudden stop pitched Col. Gordon out. He
was considerably bruised but not other
wise injured.
The last relief of the police force still
does it duties with the augmentation of
the extra force. Forty men patrol the
streets at night, and the danger the city
runs of burglaries or other crimes, on
account of the darkness that shrouds the
city while the electric wires are down is
greatly lessened by the vigilance of this
reinforced relief.
Mayor Myers was very much pleased to
find yesterday that the city has 1900
storm insurance on it's buildings. OF this
amount 81 900 is on the water works plant
and 5000 on the city echange. A consid-
cradle slice of the first amount will be
required to repair the dana ges at the wa
ter works The damage to the city ex-
change has already been repaired at small
cost. There was no storm insurance on
the market
The Blacks and Fellows will cross bats
tonight at $50 o'clock in game of indoor
base ball at the Young Mems Christian
Association gymnasium. The batteries
will be Dwelle and Fordham for the
Blacks, and Coleman and Harden for the
Yellows. These batteries are considered
the best in the association, and a good
game may be expected. Ladies as well as
young men are invited to be present
Seats will be provided in the gallery.

DISPOSED OF 100 NAMES.
The Registrars GOT in Fairly Good
Days Work.


The registrars got in a fair days work
yesterday over 100 names being consider
ed. This, however only brought them
down to the Ms in the First district. Many
additional challenges have been preferred
in this district since the registrars begun
their work, probably more than half the
registered voters being challenged. The
Citizens Club, it IS stated by the opposi-
ton have challenged every Irishman and
every negro, while the Liberal club, on
the other hand, is said TO have challenged
nearly every Cracker, German and Jew
in the district.
Four names were removed from the list
yesterday. They We're Jacob J. Morrison,
J. Elliott NARROW. H. II. Lange and Will
lie King the latter colored. Morrison and
Lange were challenged by the Liberal
Club, and Marrow and King went off on
charges made by the registrars.
The registrars may get to the bottom
of the First district list to-day, but if
they go back to take up the default
cases, that is, parties who have failed to
appear TO answer the challenges against
them, as they have announced their in
tention of doing, all tomorrow and prob
ably Monday Will be consumed in hear
ing these cases.
This means that there will be no purging
of the other districts and that the lists
will be approved as they now stand. The
appearance of the voters name upon the
list will be taken as prima facie evidence
that The has a right to be there.
The lists will have to be given to the
printers Monday night and the registrars
have not yet completed their classification
of the lists.
