WOULD NOT REACH THEM.
Rev. Ed r. Cook Pronounced Elec-
ton Abuses DisgracefuI.

SUCH disgraceful practices as marked
the election of last Friday" said Rev.
Ed. F. Cook, pastor of Wesley Monument
tai Church. yesterday. cannot be rene
died by words from the pulpit. l know
it would be useless 90 touch upon such
shameless violations of the law in a SER
mon. for I would not, in that way. reach
the guilty. They are not to be found at
church.
THE vote-purchasing and the vote-sell-
ing are equally culpable. The authorities
should rise above and against such prac-
tees and put them down. The commun-
ity should demand that it be done. Until
the community has undergone a PROCESS
of moral uplifting and regeneration and
reached plane that is far above so de-
based and degrading a custom as marks
Savannah elections, IL is useless for any
addresses from the pulpit to seek to cor
rect the evils. Certainly. though it is
the right of city to look to its authori-
ties to prevent such a spectacle as was
presented on Friday"

WILL GIVE BOND AND GO.
The Washes Claim Against Peters
Company 10 Be in the Courts.


Company TO Be in the Courts.
The difficulties Of the Phil and Nettie
Peters Comedy Company will be smoothed
out to-day, Mr. Peters said last night,
and the company will leave for Charles
ton. where ii is to open an engagement
tonight.
Efforts were made yesterday to settle
the claim made by Frank Walsh and his
wife, Mrs. Matte Walsh. Mr.. Peters said
that Mr.. Walsh mad offered to compro-
mise his $3.50 claim by accepting 500, but,
when the tender of the money was made
lin, ne refused.
The money due the Washes, Mr.. Peters
said, is from last summer, when the show
was conducted under canvas. Walsh and
Mrs. Walsh were then very valuable to
the troupe. because of their specialties.
The company had sixty-two nights of
rain, however, and receipts, in conse-
quence, were considerably to the bad. 1t
was then that the salary of the Washes
got in arrears.
Mr.. Peters said he thought Walsh the
last man in the world to take such action,
as he did, as he had been with the COM
pany for ten months and had been very
ClOSt " lle management ~ was WIN
out intimation, Mr.. Peters said. of his
intention to take legal steps to get the
money that was due him that
Mr.. Walsh swore out his
attachment and punishment. Had
such intimation been given, he said
effort would have been made to satisfy
the claim. Mr.. Peters seemed particularly
aggrieved las did his partner. Mr.. George
l.. Timmons that Walsh, after having
been with them so long and, as they sain
having been paid something like 5000 by
them, should have taken legal steps to
collect money.
Bond will be given in the case to-day,
Mr.. Peters said, and all the properly Of
the company that was attached will be
taken away. The company will fight the
case, claiming that $3.50 is not due to
Walsh and his wife. Mr. Peters expects
to be back in Savannah for the May
term of the City Court, when the case
will be tried.
The Washes, Mr.. Peters said. will not
remain with the company. Were the
show going to Tybee, he said, Walsh could
not go with it. He, said he had learned
that the Washes had gone back to one
of the music halls in Savannah.

The other break which occurred within
a few moments of the first, was at Liberty

people were quickly attracted to the scene
and telephone message was sent to the
