Local and General News of ships
and Shipping.

The steamchip Adula, which figures
so prominently in the Schley trial. will
be remembered in Savannah, having
been brought here in command of
Lieut.. Anderson, after being captured
by the Marblehead while trying to en-
ter Cienfuegos on a second trip, after
being held up and warned by Admiral
Schley's Flying Squadron. In the
trial of Mr., Gonzalez of Havana, the
charterer, who was on board. and the
British Captain Walker and crew. they
were released, but the ships was held
and determined a legitimate prize of
war, and put in possession OF United
States Marshall j. NJ. Barnes pending
the sale at an upset price of $4,000.
The vessel was put up for sale at Sa-
vannah. but no one would start the
bidding at the upset price, though
there were several bona fide bidders,
including party of Savannah mer-
chants who thought of establishing
line to Cuba as soonSas the war clos

and libeled by the tugs for $4,000. but
found that they could not touch her
while in the governments possession.
She was then turned over to the orig
inal owners, the Atlas Steamship
Company. While running on her for
mer route down in the West Indies
she was loaded in between decks with
nothing in the hold, which made her
top heavy. She careened and took wa
ter in the side ports, but righted, and
after giving them warning, instead of
remedying the trouble went again, ana
the next time she didn't recover, but
filled and sank

WILCOX MAY REMAIN WET.

The prohibitionists are having trou-
BILE in reaching a vote on the barroom
question in Wilcox county. They first
had petition before the ordinary. who
set the election for Oct II, the same
day the election was to be held in Ir-
win county, but the liquor men secured
an injunction which delayed the mat
ter. Judge Roberts refused TO make
the injunction permanent and the or
binary ordered the election for Nov.
IL. S. P. Lasseter. a prominent liquor
dealer of Abbeville and Fitzgerald,
through his attorney, Eldridge Cults,
went before Judge Roberts again, ask
ing that Ordinary Warren be restrain
ed from further publishing his order
for the election. They allege that the
requisite number of voters failed to
sign the petition. Judge Roberts grant
ed the restraining order and set Nov.
II for a final hearing on this point.
This means that whisky will be sold
in Wilcox for another year, at least,
as the ordinary will not be able to or
der another election in time to prevent
the whisky men from securing their
license for another year.
