Connections in savannah.
Hon. Joseph NJ. Terrell, candidate for
Governor, ex-Attorney General and af
ter-dinner speaker, was in Savannah
yesterday. His presence was unex-
pected, and was due to the fact that
he missed train connections.
Mr.. Terrell was on his way to Bruns
wick, but changed his route here. and
left in the afternoon for Worth coun-
ty. During the morning he met his
friends, and spent his few hours pleas
antly. Mr.. Terrell has relatives as we'll
as friends in Savannah. Robert ]
Travis, Esq, and Rev Bascom An
thony, pastor of Trinity Methodist
Church, are his cousins. The North
Georgia candidate was with Mr.. Travis
during the morning, and was intro
duced to quite number of people.
Mr.. Terrell wore a look of confidence
and in conversation with his friends
expressed himself as being sanguine
of the result of his canvass.
Il was with Col. EstiI Monday
morning" he said, and we had a
pleasant breakfast together"

his visit to Savannah as the guest of
the Hibernian Society. On that occa-

CONVICTS AT TYBEE.
Gang of sixty VIII lie on Island for
sixty Days.

A force of county convicts, sixty
strong, went down to Tybee Island
yesterday morning. The force will be
kept on the island for the next sixty
days and during that time will place it
in a thoroughly good sanitary con-
dition.
Superintendent of Public Works and
Roads Chaplin and County Engineer
Brown went down to the island with
the force of convicts, to supervise the
establishment of quarters and lay out a
plan of operations. The camp was
established in the Central Railway pa
vilion, near Point station. 1t is roomy
and comfortable.
The present drains on Tybee will be
cleaned and connected with their out
let's and such new drains will be dug
as are needed to carry away all the
surplus water. The present drains
have suffered badly during the three
years that have elapsed since they
have received attention.
The camp will be in charge of c. c.
DeLarge, chief guard. 1t is the gang
known as No. 3 which has formerly
been at work in Buckhalter.

STOPPED BY HABEAS CORPUS.
Alabama Sheriff About TO Take A.
KasseII to That Stnte.

KasseII to That state.
A habeas corpus proceeding against
Superintendent of Police owen Reilly
was filed in the Superior Court yester-
day morning. and a hearing was to
have been had in the afternoon. 1t
was postponed, however, and A. Kas-
sci. the man whose release the writ
was designed to secure, is still at the
police station.
The story of Kasselps arrest for a
crime committed in Alabama has al
ready been told in the Morning News.
He had first been arrested on a minor
charge and then secured signatures to
a criminal bond for his appearance by
representing himself as the owner of
a horse and wagon he had borrowed.
Afterwards he quietly departed, leav-
ing his bondsmen in the lurch. The
owner of the outfit claimed it and the
bondsmen were left responsible for
the payment of the bond, without any
means of making good their loss.
A warrant for fraud was sworn out
against him, and on this he was ar
rested in Savannah. A requisition for
the surrender of the fugitive was made
by the Governor of Alabama on Gov.
Gambler and promptly honored and
armed with this Sheriff Bellamy of
Russell county, Alabama, came to Sa-
Vannah for mis- prisoner.
Efforts to compromise the case were
in progress yesterday, and it is not
improbable they will be successful.
The basis of compromise will probably
be the payment by Kassell of the
amount he caused his Alabama bonds
men to lose by skipping out before
trial. In the meantime the Alabama
sheriff has gone back home and Kas-
sell is al the station house.
The writ Of habeas corpus was based
on alleged Irregularities in the warrant
for Kassells arrest. AS requisition
papers for his surrender had already
been honored. there was no chance

FLOWER THIEVES BUSY.
Gardens in Southern Section of City
Are Suffering.

Ohruens IN southern Sec1On OF Nlty
Are Suffering.
Flower thieves are paying their an
nual visits to gardens in the southern
section of the city. The thefts have
been called to the attention of the po-
lice and the mounted men have been
given instructions to keep close
watch for the guilty persons.
While exasperating, the loss of the
blossoms is not the greatest annoyance
to those who take a pride in their gar
dens. In their haste to get away with
the flowers unperceived, the thieves
frequently injure the rose bushes by
stripping them of buds and leaves
Most of the stealing is done during
the early morning. although not a
small part of it is done during the
day. Innumerable plans have been
made to prevent the theft of flowers,
but without any degree of success.
