WILL BE ANOTHER DAY OF 1T.
Weather Man Says You Can Keep
Warm But You Must Keep in Doors

Weather Man Says You Can Keep
Warm But You Must Keep in Doors.
No let-up in the weather that has afllet-
ed Savannah for the last three days is
promised by the weather bureau for to-
day. On the contrary, it says it will be
just as bad, that there wall stiR be rain
1t is true there will be a little less cold
in all probability, as the bureau says
warmer" but the cold is not what the
people have been complaining about and
they will not feel immensely relieved by
this little compensation The rain has
been the trouble, and they would like to
see it hold up. But the end Is not yet.
Four days of such weather as has pre-
vailed is a bad record even for January
and the public win not care how soon an
Improvement comes. All will be forgiven
if the evil spirits that send such days
will only begin at once to do better With
grippe prevalent there is not much chance
OF those down with 1T getting up, while
there is great chance of those who are
wei being stricken down.
Along the whole South Atlantic and Gull
coasts the weather has been cloudy and
rainy, with rather low temperature. 1t has
been on account of these conditions being
so general that Savannah has had such a
long siege. The weather people could sec
no signs yesterday of anything that would
indicate speedy change for the better

CHIEF HANLY IN CHARGE.
Taken on a Tour of the Department
by His Predecessor.


by His Predecessor.
As soon as Fire Chief Hanly was sworn
in yesterday he proceeded to fire head
quarters, where he met his predecessor,
Chief Mcguire. who promptly turned over
to him all the books and records of the
office. The ex-chief and his successor
then went on tour of che engine houses.
together
Mr.. Hanly is no stranger in the fire
department. In fact he may be said to
have almost been raised up in it. He was
for number of years connected with the
old volunteer department and later was
a call foreman for several years under the
partly paid department. When the de-
partment was put on the fun paid basis
in 1890 he was continued as foreman, but
the following year his connection with the
department was severed by his appoint
ment by Mayor McDonoUgh as chief de-
tective of the police force. This position
he held until Mayor Myers assumed the
reins of city government in 1895. Since
then he has had no connection with the
city government until his election as fire
chief this week.
While his capability as fire chief has
not yet been demonstrate ted, Mr.. Hanly
has the confidence of a number of his
fellow citizens who know him best He is
known to be a cool, quiet, courageous
man of good judgment and it is believed
that these qualities will stand him in good
stead when he is called upon to lead his
forces.
Mr.. Haniy, in an informal conversation
with Morning News reporter, said he
had no policy to outline. In general way
his idea is to get good men on the lie
partment and keep them there. to in
struct them in their duties and then give
them the fullest opportunity to do tn.
best work of which they are capable
when the time arrives He does not be-
lieve in hampering the men by arbitrary
rules and restrictions and will endeavcr
to have as little friction in the depart
ment as possible. The older members of
the department who are well acquainted
with Chief Hanly, seem very well pleased
with his election, and say they anticipate
no trouble in his administration of the
department.

TO GO ABOARD TODAY.
Change In the Programme for Move
ment Of Third Georgia.

ChunSe In the programme Tor Move
ment of Third Georgia.
The Third Georgia Regiment did nor go
aboard the transport Roumanian yester-
day afternoon, as was expected. Instead,
it is expected to go aboard this afternoon,
probably between and 3 O'clock and the
transport is expected to leave the Gordon
wharf an hour or two later. The weather
conditions, and other difficulties have upset
the plans to some extent. but IL was the
impression last night that the programme
as outlined above would be carried
through.
Practically all of the effects of the reg
iment and of the men are aboard the
transport or down on the wharf If it
had not been that there is a lot of lumber
and other supplies still 10 be loaded the
men could have been taken on board yes
terday afternoon. Their presence would
interfere with the loading. and as il was
deemed not advisable to risk further de-
lay in this way the regiment was kept at
camp last night. 1t is probable that the
last night in camp was an especially I'M
pleasant one. Each man had but one
blanket there were no cots, and the night
was such a damp. nasty one that their abb
sence must have been noticed. There are
plenty of rations on hand, though. and the
feeding of the men was not interfered
with. At the same time 1t will be with a
feeling of relief that the men will quit
the dampness of Camp Onward this aft
ernoon, after dinner, and march to the
wharf which Is at the eastern end of the
city. There will be no opportunity af-
forded to give the regiment a demonstra-
ton on their departure from port, and the
best that can be done will be to salute
them with cheers as they march to the
wharf.
The transport Manitoba is scheduled to
get off at daybreak this morning. This
TRANSPORT was also delayed by the weather,
which prevented night work 20 any ad-
vantage. The cavalrymen and others
spent last night on board and everything
was ready for an early start.

decided upon. Nothing has been heard

MISS fuckers TALKS.

Was Manifested Last Night.

Despite the Ne1ther Much interest
Was Manifested Last Night.
At the close of Miss fuckers talk at the
Seventh Street Church last night nearly
every one present responded to the propo-
sition to lead better lives. Miss Tucker
contrasted the lives Of people who are
bound and imprisoned on account of sin
with the lives of those who are liberated
by the spirit of God.
The talk was plain and impressive, and
the congregation listened attentively to
the earnest words of the woman who has
given her life to church work.
In large audiences at Macon. Nashville,
Atlanta and other cities Miss Tucker has
been conspicuous. The young people who
heard her at the Epworth League con-
vention last spring came home singing
praises on account of blessings received
during that meeting.
Rain or shine the services are held day
and night. and it is hoped that the people
will take advantage of the opportunity to
boar Miss Tucker during her stay here.

ONLY very few Cuban soldiers In
Havana have accepted money from
the United States in return for their
disbandment and the surrender Of
their arms. II is reported that the
Cubans refuse to take the SIS to
which each soldier is entitled because
they feel they should not sell the arms
with which they fought for freedom.
Should this be the real sentiment
actuating them-and so far there are
no indications Of any other reason
for their action--the American people
should hasten to congratulate the
Cubans on the spirit thus shown. 1t
has been suggested that the Cubans
wish to keep their rides for use
against the United States. II they
really expected or feared war with
us they would find it easy, with the
money offered them, to buy newer
and better arms than those they now
have. If, therefore,as seems probable,
the Cubans have rejected our money
for the sake of strong and honor
able sentiment, their action is a favor

ARMY PHOTOGRAPHERS,
How Lee and Frank Head, Of This
City, Went With tasAymy
to Cuba,

The st. Louis Globe Democrat OF
June says: Among the guests yes
terday at the LindelI Hotel was Lee
Head, of Mexico, Mo-, who, with his
brother Frank, literally photographed
himself from Missouri to Havana,
Cuba, and incidentally laid by hand
some sum for rainy day or for some
business venture in the future. The
two boys had something of a local
reputation as photographers at Mex
leo and when the Missouri volunteers
went to Ohickamauga Park they fol-
lowed them there AMI commenced
making q series of photographs.
Finally, after a measure of success in
disposing of their views to individuals,
they decided to publish an illustrated
pamphlet based upon the photographs
Of the Missouri troops, From the
proceeds of the sales of these pam
phlets the boys were able to make the
journey to Havana, where they con-
tinued their work and did handsome
ly. Lee says that his brother is still
In Cuba, where he expects to join him
shortly, and there Is possibility that
the two may take up q permanent
residence on the island. Yesterday
while in the city, he presented Rev
DR.. Ottman, who was the chaplain OF
the Second Missouri, with a Cuban
machete of peculiar design. The
chaplain, though a man Of God and
an advocate of peace, has a valuable
collection of the arms Of different
nations. He is the Essis.ant rector al
