DIED FROM HIS WOUND.
Pistol Ball Caused Death of Stephen
A. Crawford.


Stephen A. Crawford of No. 50 Park
avenue, west, died at the Savannah Hos
ptal yesterday afternoon from a pistol
wound indicted Sunday night under pecu-
liar circumstances. The story of the
shooting was given in the Morning News
yesterday, and it was believed from the
first that the wound would terminate IA
tally.
As has been related Crawford fell from
a West End trolley car and a 32-calibre
revolver in his hip pocket was exploded
by coming in contact with cobble stone.
An investigation by Detective Murphy
yesterday disclosed the fact that Craw-
ford had been in the habit of carrying his
pistol with the barrel sticking out of the
pocket. In this way the peculiar manner
In which the bullet entered the back and
ranged upward was explained.
Coroner Keller made an investigation of
the remains and the bullet was located
In the abdomen. The statements of sew
eral passengers on the car, including the
conductor and motorman, were taken and
an inquest was deemed unnecessary.
Crawford was a well known young man
and had quite a number of friends who
are grieved at his tragic death.

Office of ]. T. Shuptrane. Wholesale
Druggist and Seedsman--Savennahs Ga,
July 1, 1896.-Mr. A. B. Girardeau. 6avan-
nah, Ga.-Dear Sir: In reply to yours
asking me for statement giving my ex-
perience with Johnsons Chill and Fever
Tonic, will say that since 1889. when
made my first purchase of four dozen,
have bought in lots varying from 10 ia
100 gross, until I find that my total pur-
chases have aggregated the enormous
amount of 10000 bottles.
During my long connection with the
drug trade, covering more than 20 years
/ cannot recall any article that has had
Such run and that has so steadily in
creased in sale.
/ have always called the attention OF
the buyer to the guarantee placed on the
Tonic and explained that l would give
the money back whenever a complaint
was made. Yet, out of this vast amount
of medicine, do not think more than q
complaints have ever been made
This seems surprising, but with my
own experience with the medicine in the
past four years, it is a surprise that q
complaint is ever made. In my own fam
lily l have used the Tonic in severe cases
of fever and always with the happiest eff
feet. l use the medicine myself and take
pleasure in recommending its use to 9TH
ers. Yours very truly. ]. T. Shuptrine.-

Materials and Benches to BE Shipped
to Charleston Next Week.
The Tabernacle in the Park Extension,
in which the Jones-Stewart meetings were
held, has been torn down and the mate
rial of which it was constructed will be
sent to Charleston, where it will be made
into two buildings, 60 by IA feet each,
which will be used for some of the ex-
hibits at the Interstate and West Indian
Fair. The benches used in the Taber-
nacle will also go to Charleston.
The Tabernacle proved so thoroughly
satisfactory for the purposes for which
1t was intended that not only Mr. J. G..
Blaine, the contractor and builder OF it.,
was assured by Rev. Sam Jones that he
would recommend him to furnish all flu
ture tabernacles where he might conduct
MEETINGS, but Mr.. Blaine has already
been engaged to build similar structures
in Atlanta, Brooklyn and a Georgia city,
which the promoters of the meetings do
not wish to be made known yet.
The materials in the Park Extension
will not all be moved for about two days
yet. and will not be shipped to Charles
ton until the beginning of next week.

DRAGON WENT TO c. F. MOSES.
Award of the Racing Yacht Which
Contested the Maris.

The racing yacht Dragon now belongs
to Mr.. Cornelius F. Moses. She was
awarded to him last night at J. A. Ca
lina's, where those who were interested
in the disposal of the boat had been in
vited to gather. The competition, for the
boat was extremely close, but she finally
fell to Mr. Moses, which put 'em en-
him."
The Dragon is a famous racing yacht.
In South Atlantic waters she is KIN Jwn
because of her victory over the Carolina
Yacht Club at Charleston two years ago.
though she went down in defeat last year
before the Maris of that city. She was
brought south by a syndicate formed in
the Savannah Yacht Club for her pur-
chase, as boat was wanted that could
beat anything owned in the Carolina
Yacht CLUB, which held the cup that is
raced for by representative yachts of the
two cities.
The syndicate was successful in Its ef-
fort. but had to give way last year, when
a similar syndicate, formed in the Caro-
lima Yacht Club, brought out the Maris,
a new boat, from the North to beat the
Dragon,

MT. Egan Said 1t Cannot Re Said
what Directors May Do.
President John. NJ Egan of the Central
Railroad was asked yesterday If. when
the next annual dividend is declared by
the directors, the second preference in
come bonds would come in for a share
of the profits of the railroad, as there has
been considerable speculation upon that
score. Mr.. Egan replied that it could not
to do.
Mr.. Egan is just back from a trip to
the Northwest, a section of the country
with which he is thoroughly familiar, hav-
ing been in the railroad business there
for many years. Asked about the crop
conditions in the Northwest he said that
they were fairly good. He was greatly
impressed, however, and gratihed by the
marked Improvement that crops in Geor-
gia showed when he passed through tho
state on his way back TO Savannah He
had left for the Northwest some eight days
before. bus found that in that shore time
all Gorgia crops had rallied from the ad-
verse conditions under which they had
suffered for many days
Mr.. ESan is a director of the Georgia
Export and Import Company. He was
asked about the status of that company,
as ID had been reported that 1t would
wind up its affairs and retire from buai-
ness. This, however, Mr.. Egan said, is
not the case. The company will continue
to do business. but not upon such an OK
tensive scale as heretofore. At some fu-
ture time it may resume opera lions as
befN e, but for the present its business
will be more confined. Gen. G. NJ. Sorrel
general manager Of the company. IS in
New York. His health has not been good
for some months.

closed yesterday by Deputy Sheriffs
Sweeney and Hartigan on an execution
for 500 due the state for license The
property was taken charge of by the
county officers. and the bar was closed.
Travers was not in the place, and it was
stated on the streets that he had left
the city.
Travers has four indictments against
him for keeping open tipping house on
Sunday, and the cases will be called in
the Superior Court next week. He is I'M
der bond for his appearance at that time.
The saloon keeper has been fined before
for doing business on Sunday, and it
was stated yesterday that his name would
be presented to the grand jury again on
Friday.
Attorney H. E. Wilson of the Good
Government League says that he has been
furnished by one of his men with the
names of certain individuals who were in
the bar at different times on last Sunday.
1t was currently reported on the street
that several hundred dollars were taken in
on that day. but this of course, is not
known. 1t was in this saloon that several
customers were deluged with beer Sun
day night by the explosion of beer keg.
Mr.. Wilson did not say that any of his

The six new cars for the Savannah.

Company were located in Virginia yes
terday by the Southern Railway and are
being hurried to Savannah on a special
train. 1t is not at all probable that they
will go astray again and General Mana

the suburban lines for the Fourth of July
crowds. The cars have already been de-
scribed.

was made in anything but record-break-

namo will be in operation by Sunday, but
it win be in service early next week
For some weeks patrons of the several
lines have noticed a small box, with glass
front, at the opposite end of the car from
the register and have wondered for what
use they were intended. The conductors
were in the dark and several of them
suggested that they might have been in
tended for conscience boxes. 1t soon de-
veloped that this was not the case and
no one was found who would admit hav-
ing ever beat the company out of ride.
and who expressed any desire to drop a
nickel I'm the locked box
The boxes were put in service for the
first time yesterday morning, when the
conductors were supplied with envelopes,
and Instructed to place all transfer Sins
and other tickets in them aud at the end
OF each trip to place the envelope and
contents in the box. At night inspectors
board the cars and check the conductors
up from their trip slips. The box re-
lieves the men OF the troublesome tickets
and there is no danger OF losing any.

WORK AT THE FAIR GROUNDS.
Artesian Well Finished and the
Grading Progressing.

Gruufnk GrORressinK.
The six-inch well at the state Fair
grounds has been competed. The arte-
sian flow is not strong enough TO afford
an elevation from which the grounds can
be- supplied with water. as it rises but
about foot above the surface. A pump
and reservoir will be put in, however,
and Mr.. Percy Sugden, architect and en-
gineer for the Savannah Fair Associa-
ton. says the water supply Will be en-
trely adequate.
Work on grading the grounds, Mr.. Sug-
den says, is progressing satisfactorily. All
the rougher work will have been COM
pleted. he says, by the convicts within the
time for which their labor was allowed by
the County Commissioners.
The race track will be finished up un-
der the direction OF Mr.. Seth Griffin
famous as a constructor of race courses.
Mr.. Griffin will certainly visit Savannah
II is said. but il has not been definitely
determined whether he will remain until
the finishing work on the track has been
completed, or whether he will merely in
dictate just what should be done.

GAMBLERS NOT TRIED.
Faulty Indictments Cause a POST
pOnement of the Cases.

Faulty Indictments Cause a POST
pOnement of the Cases.
The cases against James L. Doss, simon
Sternberg, Charles O.Den, T. o. Mcbride.
Cad Bryan and John Mcbride, charged
with Keeping gaming houses were called
in the Superior Court yesterday morning
but because of faulty indictments were
noble pressed by the Solicitor General.
The men were represented by Robert L.
Colding, Esq. When the first case was
called 1t was shown that the indictments
returned by the grand jury did not name
the date upon which the offenses are all
legged to have been committed.
The fact that the cases were nolle
pressed on technical point does not
mean that the gamblers will be saved the
embarrassment of trial. The witnesses
against the men will be summoned to APP
pear before the grand jury on Friday and
new indictments, in which dates are
named, will be drawn up. The cases will
be called again next Tuesday 1t appears
that the papers were drawn up by the
foreman of the grand jury, and not by
the solicitor, and that the dates, which
are quite important in criminal cases,
were inadvertently omitted. 1t is under
stood that the men will not plead guilty
TO the charges, as has been the custom
in the past, but will plead not guilty, and
night the case. At least one of the de-
PENDANTS claims chat he has already been
punished by Judge Norwood in the City
Court for the commission of the misde-
meanor charged against him in the bill
found in the Superior Court.

Georgia Historical SOciety's F1nan
ciaI Affairs Discussed.

ciaI Affairs Discussed.
At the July meeting of the Georgia His
torical Society. last night. Messrs.
George j. Baldwin and W. w. Mackall
were elected curators to succeed Mr.. w.
L. Clay. resigned, and the late Mr.. B.
A. Denmark.
A committee consisting Of Col. G. A.
Mercer, Judge Robert Falligant and Mr..
]. R.. Saussy. was appointed to prepare
suitable resolutions on the death of Mr..
Denmark. which are to be presented to
the society at it's next meeting.
The society received from Savannah
Chapter, d. A. r., a copy of the recent
ly published journal of the Council OF
Safety" the manuscript of which is the
property of the society but which has
never before been published. 1t is the
understanding that the chapter will use
the money received from the sale of the
edition of the book for the purpose OF
printing other valuable historical and,
hitherto unpublished archives that are In
the possession of the Georgia Historical
Society.
Besides the routine work the matter of
the non-collection of the moneys due the
society and it's consequent inability to
meet its obligations came up and though
no action was taken other than to en-
power the treasurer of the society to Dor-
row enough money to meet current ex-
peDses was taken, Ii is probable that a
meeting of the finance committee of the
society viii be held in a few days to con-
slider the matter of either collecting the
money due and thus enable the society
to meet its expenses, or, if this is found
to be impossible, to consider the matter
OF how the expenses can so be reduced
as to come within the present income of
the society. 1t is more than probable that
the matter will come up for further dis
cussion, and possibly action at the next
ncnlinP.
