FIFTH DISTRICTS CONTEST.
II. W. SheISeIIs' side VIII Conclude
Its Evidence To-day.

The examination of the witnesses sum
moned by T. W. shekells in his contest
against Justice B. ]. McIntire in the Fifth
Militia district win be resumed and con-
cluded to-day.
Ar. Shekells brings the contest against
Justice McIntire on several grounds. Of
these, the principal is that many voters
were cast for McIntire in the recent cleo
ton by men who were disqualified on ac-
count Of their being non-residents of the
district. Another claim is that all the
managers of the election were partisans
of the cause of McIntire. The contestants
further claims that several ballots were
treated to sort of ledgerdemain by the
managers that the voters had an oppor-
tunity of witnessing sort Of now you
see It, now YOU don't" exhibition. 1t is al
legged that the managers. on more than one
occasion, received ballots in the right
changed them for others which were
in the left these last being the ones that
found their way into the box instead Of
that cast by the voter
The first hearing in the contest was held
Thursday morning before Justice A. ]. j.
DiOlSs tA-OulclO magistrate OF lne r Hln.
His court room was chilly that the
waiting room of the City and Suburban
railway near by was utilized for the TAX
ing of the testimony. Some five or six wit
nesses were examined, and among these
were some that substantiated all the claims
made by Shekells.
At the hearing beginning at 10 O'Clock
this morning. about ten or twelve witness
es will be examined. With the evidence Of
these witnesses, Shekells' side will be con-
cluded. The contestants evidence must all
be received to-day. as il is the last of the
limited number of days allowed him to ad-
duce evidence after the serving of his no
tice of contest
Justice McIntire says that the witnesses
that have testified for SFekells are his &C
tive partisans, and. consequently the bias
Of prejudice is likely to figure in their evil
dence.
The election was held on Jan. 2. One hun
dred and eighteen votes were cast, of
which McIntire received 70 and Shekells
10. Mr.. Thomas S. Morgan, Jr., represents

PRETTY WE'LL CARED FOR.
No Great Amount of Suffering Appar-
ent Among the Poor.

There does not appear to have been any
extraordinary amount of suffering among
the poor people of the city because Of the
cold spell. Some of them have been in
want of wood, provisions and clothing
but in the main their wants have been
fairly well supplied and there have been
few complaints,
The county commissioners have long
list of poor pensioners, many of whom col
lected their monthly stipend about the
time the cold snap came on or just before
it. Only one woman called at the office
of the commissioners to say she was in
need of fuel, and Chairman j. J. Dale,
who is also chairman of the committee on
poor ordered a load of wood sent to her.
Wood has been dispensed pretty freely,
too, through the system in charge of Mr..
r. b. Reppard, and the numerous charita-
BILE societies have been dilgent In their
work in behalf OF the pauper element. AL
together it may be said there are no in
dications of any great amount of suffer-
ing. and with a little moderation in the
weather, which is promised, everything
viii no doubt be all right again.

spero Hangicos, a Greek fruit dealer
who has achieved considerable undesirable
notoriety. put three knife wounds in the
BODY Of n fellow compatrot, Demetrio
Coucoules, yesterday, shortly afternoon.
Spero and his five or six brothers for
merly had a monopoly of the push cart
business in Savannah and made life
burden for their fellow countrymen in the
same business who had regular fruit
stands The city council put the push cart
license up e. $50 a year ago, however, and
this drove the Hangicos brothers 70 open
stands of their own. They manage to keep
one or two carts going in spite Of the high
license. however, and also do red not
business as a side line.
First and last the names of the Hangi-
cos brothers have frequently decorated the
police docket and three OF four years ago
one Of them narrowly escaped a sentence

withdrawal OF the charge.
Spero it seems has mad it in for Deme-
trio for some time. The two men met IN
front Of the barroom Of Eli Neruki, an
other Greek, at Barnard street and Con-
gress street lane. about noon. Both mad
been drinking. il is said. They begin 10
abuse each other in Greek. According TO
the statement OF a Greek witness Spero
called Demerrio a COW and repeated the
remark Then DemetriO called Spero
mule. This so angered Spero that he drew
a long knife ANA stabbed Demetrio three
times in the breast.
Piano Stamalos. another Greek was cut
len the hand while attempting to prevent
Hangicos from cutting Coucouies. After
sta bling Coucoulas Hangicos cooly drew
his knife between his fingers to clean off
the blood. put the knife in his pocket ard
ran off down Congress street. The wound
ed man was taken into Nerukfs place,
carried up stairs to a bedroom and a ply
stefan called DR.. NJ. L. Dunn responded.
He saw that the man was badly hurt and
ordered him taken to the St. Josephs In
Urinary. Either by mistake of the driver
Of the police ambulance or by request of
the wounded man or his friends he was
taken TO the Savannah hospital where
his wounds were dressed by the house
surgeon. DR.. \. \. Morrison.
The cutting was very quickly done and
attracted very little attention. Enough
time elapsed before the police were noti-
fed to give Spero a good chance to es-
cape. A thorough search was made for
him during the day and night by the
detectives and the outgoing trains were
watched. but without success. The de-
tectives do not think Spero will ever show
up here again unless he Is brought back
by an officer. His absence will cause no
regrets. even to his fellow countrymen.
with the possible exception of his rela-
tives.
Coucoules was reported from the Sa-
vannah hospital as resting easy. His
wounds are not considered serious.

The matter is an important one, and

the county commissioners were asked
a bout the matter yesterday, but declined
to express any option with regard to it.
The county attorney. as the Morning News

TO SETTLE ELECTION ROWS.
Several Cases on the Police Docket
for To-day.

for To-day.
Recorder Wilson will devote some of his
time this morning to investigating election
day rows.
Lemuel Wade, colored, who was badly
beaten in the Fifteenth precinct, was out
yesterday for the first time since the cleo
ton. Wade is badly bruised about the
Mead and has a very sore arm. 1t is
evident that he received a very severe
beating. He says that he was decoyed off
into a lane near the election voting place
by al white toughs, who knocked him
down ard beat him numerically. Wade
was a Citizens Club man, and his assail-
ants, it is claimed were LiberaItes.
The other side of the story, however,
is that Wade was acting the part of the
bully boy, and making things very I'M
pleasant for the Liberal Club captain of
the precinct, when several Liberal strik-
ers arrived upon the scene and proceeded
to trim Wade in the most approved man.
ner. George II. Dyer and Henry Nc
CURE were arrested yesterday, by order
of Recorder Wilson, charged with assault
ing Wade. j. A. Counihan, L. NJ Gar

tigated this morning.
