NO VOTE TAKEN
Another Force Than SUI
gar Trust at Work.
Anti-Annexationis Say There VIII
Be No FilIbuster-SIx
Hour Debates.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-IJ is said
that there are two divisions OF the OPP
position to the annexation Of Hawaii,
one acting in the interest of the Sugar
Trust and the other in another interest
not disclosed. The Sugar Trust peo-
pie are said TO be weakening, but the
others are holding out.
One proposition said to have come
from the Sugar Trusts combination, is
that a resolution authorizing the Pre-
sident to- take military possession Of
Hawaii be passed. The cunning Of
this lies in the fact that there has
been a decision Of the Supreme Court
that military occupation anneXes ter
ritory, but does not put the revenue
| laws of mis- Government in force.
Such occupation would afford the Su-
gar Trust time to get up a deal on
revenue laws which would be bene-
fetal to it.
Inc leaders Of the anti-anneXation
movement held a meeting today and
decided they would resist any effort
| to further extend the hours OF the
daily sessions for the discussion of the
Hawaiian position. They agreed to
begin the discussion promptly at IL
o'clock each day, providing there was
a quorum present, but they decided to
take a position against the extension
of the debate beyond 5 o'clock in the
| evening.
mere were numerous conferences
btween the representatives of the re-
spective side of the Hawaiian cOntro-
versy, and several of the anti-anneX-
ationists gave assurance that they had
no intention of conducting filibuster
| It was these assurances which led to
the amicable arrangement about the
adjournment of the days session
They have also caused the supporters
of the resolution to regard the outlook
as more favorable than at any pre-
vious time No one, however, looks fol-
a conclusion inside of ten days.

The New Cement Sidewalks.

Savannah justly has the reputation Of
permitting the continuance of the worse
Sidewalks of any city In the country. Re-
Gently some of the more enterprising prop
erty-holders have set an example, and
have laid the new cement sidewalk. This
greatly adds to the comfort of pedestrians.
and to the value of the property. One of
the land companies owning a number of
lots south Of Anderson street has under
consideration a proposition to pave the
sidewalks on each side of jefferson from
Second street to Seventh with this new
pavement. The plan is to pave four-foot
way in the middle of the sidewalk, with
a grass plat on each side. The intention
seems to be to make that portion of the
southern section, between Barnard and
Montgomery, so desirable as to attract the
best class of improvements.
None of the lots referred to have ever
been offered to the public, but on next
Tuesday at the court house, Mr.. Dorset
will offer few of the nearest in on very
easy terms. sad.

ILL LUCK OF THE SOPHIA.
Savannah Vessels Rough Voyage
From Halifax to ireland.


From Halifax to Ireland.
The Savannah bark Sophia, owned by
Mr.. James Foley and others, put into
Bantry bay, Ireland Feb 9. The story of
her voyage has been briefly referred to in
the Morning News. The vessel was in
command of Capt. Hans R. Petersen.
Mr.. Foley received letter yesterday
from the captains wife, stating that
everything on the vessel was washed away
in the storm she encount-
ed. The crew was fright
ened and wanted to leave, but the
captain would MOI allow them to do So
The seas were running so heavy that
boat could not have been lowered even if
the men had insisted upon leaving.
The Sophia sailed from Halifax, N. s.,
on Jan. is, with cargo of deals bound
for Tralee, Ire. After leaving Halifax,
very heavy seas were encountered. and on
Jan. %, the. deck load was thrown over
board to keep the vessel from sinking, she
being then making lot of water.
Feb. l, She encountered a regular hur-
ricane from the west a heavy sea coming
over her STEM knocked down The man at
the wheel and drove in portions of the
cabin. Three of her stanchions and one
OF her boats were smashed
Eight feet Of water was ehen
in the hold. She was rapidly
making water and thrown on
her beam ends. The captain
ordered the foretopmast cut away,
but it did not right her Soon after the
main and mizzenmasts Were cut away in
order TO right the vessel. Her foresail was
then set and she bore off before the wind
which was st!n blowing fiercely and in the
dismantled and highly dangeEous position
she reached the Irish coast Her top decks
We're partly burst open.
All of the bulwarks are destroyed and
she is practically total wreck. Forum
ately none of the crew was lost during the
DANGEROUS passage.

WAITING ON WASHINGTON.
PUBLIC BUILDING READY FOR THE
INTERIOR WORK.

No IntimatiOn When Bids VIII BE
Advertised FOr-MiIes & Bradts
Contract Completed Except Put
ting in Part of the Iron Staircase
in the TOwer-The building in
Condition for the Interior Work
to Begin six Weeks Ago.
The new public building is ready and
has been for sometime for the commence
ment of work upon the interior finishngs,
but still no intimation comes as to when
the department will advertise for bids for
that work.
Messrs. Miles and Bradt have entirely
completed their contract for building the
superstructure with the exception of put
ting in three of the five flights of the iron
staircase up in the tower. These can be
put in at anytime without interfering in
any manner with the work upon the in
terror, and the only reason they are not
yet in place is because the iron manufac-
turer has disappointed the contractors in
not getting the materials here at the
time agreed on. Mr.. Bradt is still wait
ing for those three flights of the tower
stairs, and will put them in place just as
soon as they come.
That, however, is in no wise RESPONSE
bic for the delay in beginning the interior
work. The building was ready for that a
month or six weeks ago. Last December
the information came that the plans
would be completed and bids called for
within month, but January passed and
there was no advertisement. When Con-
gresham r. Z. Lester was down here
with the river and harbor committee he
said he had been looking into the matter,
and that bids would certainly be called
for the latter part of February or by
March at latest. In that event the
plans should be ready, and advertisements
for bids should be published by next Tues
day.
If the advertisement is published March
l, bids can be opened April l. and the work
can begin a short time thereafter. Mr..
Bradt who has had charge of the con
slruction of the superstructure, will bid on
the interior work and will remain here
until the contract is awarded. 1t is ex-
pected also that there will be some local
bidders for this portion of the contract.
If the treasury department acts prompt
ly in the matter the work can begin early
in April. The contractors will probably
be given six months in which to finish the
work, which is considered ample time in
view of the fact that in the case of the
nine-story postoffice building in Washing
ton, the interior work had to be finished
| under contract within eight months 1t
is thought to be about time for something
to be heard from the plans, for Savannah
lans would like very much TO see the
new building open for business before the
beginning of another year

TO ANSWER FOR MURDER.
Benz. Nelson and Jesse DeIOche Ar

Benz. Nelson and Jesse DeIOche Ar
rested for the Killing of Foster.
Benjamin Nelson, a merchant living If
teen miles from Savannah on the Pine
Barren road and Jesse Deloche, rolored,
were arrested yesterday and committed TO
jail by Justice Bevans, charged with com
pllclty in the murder OF a negro named
Edward Foster in that vicinity some days
ago. an account of which appeared In tie
Morning News.
At the time the matter was reported in
Savannah, Coroner Goette went out for the
purpose of holding an inquest over the
body of Foster. When he arrived, how
ever, he found the inquest had already
been held by Justice S. L. Parker of Pool
err the jury finding Boise Deloche, a negro
who participated in the difficulty and aft
erward fed, to be the guilty party. The
testimony went to show that Nelson and
the other Deloche We're implicated.
The facts seem to be that the two De-
loche negroes and Foster met short dis
lance from Nelson's store on the day of
the killing and became involved in a quar-
rel Foster shot Jesse Deloche in the left
leg with a pistol. About this juncture
Nelson apprehended there was danger to
his children, who were playing near the
SAOIS5 ana went out TO queH the disturb
ance. While he was there however, it
seems the quarrel grew worse instead Of
abating, and Boise Deloche emptied two
loads from a shotgun into Fosters body
killing him instantly. The negro who did
the shooting has not been seen since by
the officers.
Officer Farrell arrested Jesse Deloche
and brought him here to be committed
He also ran across Nelson near the market
nd tN1a a l.,
arraigned before Justice Bevans, but was
not allowed bond on account of the charge
being murder. sIt was claimed he aided and
abetted the negro to shoot Foster His
statement to Justice I3evans however was
that he simply acted as peacemaker and
went to the negroes to dispense them
Boise Deloche is supposed to be at some
point on the Central Railroad, and the
officers are making an effort to appre-
bend him If possible. Nelson has employed
counsel and will appear in the Superior
Court for bond to-day

GEoRcIA.s CHANCE AT OMAHA.
Exposition Commission VIII Explain
IL 10 savannah To-day.

Gov. Northen and other members of the
Omaha Exposition Commission viii ar
rive In Savannah this morning for the
purpose of interesting the citizens of Sa-
vannah in state exhibit in the exposition
to be held at Omaha this fall. Mayor
Meldrim announced the fact TO the City
Council last night, and requested as many
of the aldermen as could conveniently do
SO. to meet the members of the commits
sion at the City Exchange at Il O'Clock
this morning. The citizens Of Savannah
generally, and the business men especially,
are invited at that time.
Mr.. w. Edwin Brobston of Brunswick
and Mayor j. f. DeLacey, of Eastman,
members of the commission, arrived in the
city yesterday. Hon. w. A. ~Hemphili
and Col. Frank H. Richardson Of Atlanta,
are expected with Gov Northen.
Mr. Brobston, who is an old newspaper
man, and is. now one of the Invest real
estate men to be found anywhere. was
seen yesterday by a Morning News re-
porter.
THE, commission" said Mr.. Brobston,
has met with encouraging success where
ever we have gone The people appear to
be alive TO the value of attracting atten-
ton 10 the resources of our state, and
there has been a liberal response TO our
requests. Macon, Augusta, Athens, Wash
ingtOn, MilledgeVi4le, Ea tonton, Madison
and Covington have all been visited, and
in every place the commission has been
well received. From here we will go to
Waycross, Albany, Americas, Columbus
and other South and Southwest Georgia
cities. The amount estimated as neces-
sary 10 make a creditable exhibit is $15, coo,
and il we continue to be as successful as
we have been l have no doubt but that
we shall secure fully that amount"
''The trouble with Georgia said Mr.
Brobston, lis that our people have sat
still for years serene in the belief that
other people knew us as well as we knew
ourselves. AS a matter of fact, that
there was nothing of the kind. People
North and West know very little of Geor-
gia and its resources and its people The
only way 10 attract their
favorable attention is to make
these things known to them. For the
last generation or more the whole trend of
everything was to the West. The newspa-
pers spoke continually of the West and the
railroads doomed the West. Consequently
everything went westward. The Western
| boom subsidized some time since. For the
last several years the newspapers have
given their attention more and more to the
South, the railroads have distributed lit
erature and have used other means to at
tract attention to this section. These things
have begun to take effect. Intending home
seekers are now looking Southwark. One
reason for the holding of the Omaha ex-
position is, in my opinion, to make such
an exhibition of their resources as will
check this Southwark tendency. This being
the case it is especially to our interest to
make such showing tAere as will prove
that our claims are not mere mConshine. If
we can show tke thousands of home seekers
who will attend the exhibition that our re-
sources are what we claim them to be
Georgia will profit immensely thereby"

WANT THE DATE CHANGED.


for Their State Convention.
A committee from the state board of the
Travellers Protective Association will be
in Savannah Saturday for the purpose of
comforting with members of the local pest
in regard to changing the dates for holding
the state convention.
AT present, the time has been fixed for
April IL. II and 10, but there is some OBJ
lection to these dates on account of the
belief the first part of the week Is not a
good time for travelling men to get away
from business. They think this fact would
greatly decrease the prospective attend
ance n the convention.
President Joe Lovenstein has a contrary
view of the matter, and thinks the latter
part of the week bad time for holding
conventions. THE last one resulted I'M
satisfactorily by running into Sunday be-
fore we could wind up the business" lie
said to Morning News reporter, land l
am in favor of leaving the dates as they
have been fixed" Just what will be done
is not apparent, but there is ample time
to make the change without interfering
with prospects, if the meeting so decides

TOOK a CLUB TO PERSUADE HIM.
Constable COhen's Argument With
an Unwilling Prisoner,

Constable COhen's Argument With
an Unwilling Prisoner.
Constable Paul Cohen of Justice Rus
sells court had considerable trouble yes
terday arrestng VIII Ferguson. colored,
who was wanted for an alleged assault on
Florence Reed, who lives at No 664 Pres
ident street, east. The o.flcer had to use
a club, and for time thought he would
have to use bullets TO assert the law
Cohen started on a search for Ferguson,
armed with warrant, and found his man
on President street. In order that there
might be no mistakes the officer took the
prosecutrix- along as an evidence to Fer
guson that the proposed arrest was not
a bogus game. When Cohen and the wo-
man encountered Ferguson, an explana ton
was made by the officer, who called on the
woman to bear him out in the statement
that the warrant was genuine
What That woman take out war
rant for me?" said Ferguson.
YES, and You must go" said Cohen.
At this Ferguson turned and started
away as if Cohen did not have the whole
of Georgia behind him in the fulfillment
of his duty. Cries for the negro to hault
were of no avail. Taking off a pair of gold
glasses and pocketing them for safety, CO.
hen produced club and started for his
man. On reaching Ferguson he again en-
deavored to impress on him the fact that
he was under arrest and had better act
cautiously, but the negro persisted in his
refusal to go. Cohen then laid hold Of him
and scuffle ensued. The officer called for
help and a bystander went to the rescue.
at which the prisoner was subdued. Cohen
took his man before Justice Russell who
committed him TO jail
