NO NEWS OF CAPT. BEVILL..
Little Doubt That He Fell Overheard
From the Louisa.

AhE
The steamer Louisa arrived yesterday
afternoon from Augusta. Capt. Hidden
stated that a search was made along the
river for the body of Capt. J. s. Bevil,
who disappeared from the steamer last
Tuesday night and is supposed to have
been drowned, but there were no signs of
the unfortunate man. Messrs. Frank and
Andrew Bevill, brothers of the missing
man, came down the river from Augusta
on the steamer, and stopped at Burtons
Ferry, the landing at which Capt Bevin
was last seen.
In relating the circumstances connected
with the disappearance, Capt. Hidden
said that Capt. BeviI had been awake all
Of Monday night, not being able to secure
a state room, the boat being crowded
with passengers. Tuesday night he was
sitting on a chair on the hurricane deck
and frequently dropped off in a doze.
Capt. Hadden invited him to his room
about / O'Clock, but he said he preferred
to sit out in the open air. as the weather
was quite warm.
Soon after leaving Burtons Ferry, two
ladies, who occupied a state room nearby,
heard Capt. Bevill call to his son Harry,
who is assistant purser on the boat, tell
ing him to go to sleep a while, and he
would keep a lookout Harry did not
hear his fathers call, but it is supposed
that Capt. Bevill thought he did. and went
to the lower deck to see that everything
was all right. 1t is supposed that he made
a msstep from the guard and fell over
board. A deck hand found a hat near the
edge of the guard the next morning, but
it was not known at the time that it was
Capt Bevills. 1t was afterwards identi-
fed
1t was not until after breakfast, when
a man was sent to the room in which
Capt Bevill was supposed to be sleeping
that 1t was discovered he was not on
board. His coat was found in the cap
tains room where he had left 1t early the
night before.

By THE LAUDANUM ROUTE.
Charles Moehrl1e Tried Suicide with
Poison.

Charles Moehrke Is very low at his home
on Orange street. near Ann, the effect Of
dose of laudanum taken yesterday
morning with suicidal intent Notwith-
standing Moehrke had the services of two
physicians, who labored with him all day
and part of last night, he was still in a
stupid condition at last reports, with the
chances against his recovery.
Moehrke's act is attributed to mania due
to excessive and long continued use of
intoxicants. He is said to have been on
an extended spree for some time. Yes
terday morning he finished up his spree
by beating his wife and children and run
ming them out of doors He then drank
down two ounces of laudanum and threw
the bottle in the street. This was about
1890 o'clock. When Moehrke threw the
bottle into the street he said that he had
taken laudanum His daughter picked UP
the bottle and carried il to Tinsman's drug
store, No. 50 West Broad street, where she
exhibited the bottle and repeated her faith
er's statement. She was informed that
the bottle had contained laudanum.
Dr. r. G.. Norton was telephoned for and
responded with his son, DR.. George Nor
ton. The landanum had already begun to
take erect WLtH NAley dIIlNtuY luc patient
being in a heavy somnOlent condition. The
usual remedies to produce vomiting were
tried, but without effect. The stomach
pump was brought into service and the
mans stomach was cleared with difficulty.
This failed to give relief however, and the
patient still remained in a condition of
stupor from which all the efforts of the
physicians to arouse him failed. DR.. Nor
ton said last night that the probabilities
were against Moehrke's recovery. Dr.
George Norton remained with the patient
last night.
Moehrke was formerly in the employee Of
the Savannah Brewing Company and af-
forwards did a small grocery business.
Some time ago he inherited a small for
tune, about $1,000. from a relative who died
in the west. Since securing this money
Moehrke is said to have done no work,
but to have devoted his time to dissipat-
ing. The money is supposed to have been
exhausted and this Is taken to account
for Moehrke's rash act.
Moehrke was prominent about eighteen
years ago as a witness in the Devine muir
der case which excited great interest at
the time.
