Savannah Police Fail to Locate Wo-
man Who Got Diamonds.
Savannah, Ga. Aug. 1.-THE entire
police and detective force of Savan-
nah, supplemented by the proprietors
and clerks of Theus Bros. and Des
Bouillon's jewelry stores, have been
busily loting for the woman who got
their diamonds since yesterday after
noon, when they were bled to the tune
of $1,S19.50 upon forged orders that
were alleged to have been signed by
Mrs. J. P. Williams and Mrs, Henry
Blum, respectively.
Many clews have been taken up,
worked and dropped, and everybody
is as much at sea as to the identity
of the woman as at the hour that the
goods were stolen. 1t is the general
belief that the woman is still in the
city, for every outgoing train has been
watched and no trace Of her has been
discovered.
1t was the smoothest and yet the
crudest piece of crooked work seen
in Savannah for many years. The
notes were illiterate and imperfect,
and on their face showed to any one
examining them carefully that Mrs.
Williams nor Mrs. Blum would not
have written such missives.

Fields of Dooly, and J NJ. Dupree, Of

Mr. Lewis speech of acceptance was
one of the best ever made upon q
similar occasion. He made no attempt
at superhuous oratory, but talked
straight from the shoulder,
After thanking his audience Tor the
great compliment they had, by their
interest and presence bestowed upon
him, he proceeded to speak upon mat
ters Of vital Importance to the demo.

thatssthe party had no issues, and no
men to lead them in fight to victory.
He told of what great disadvantages
the party had labored under during
the past few years and assured his
hearers that the star of hope for demo
cracy was in the ascerdancv, repeating
in the strongest words that the one
salvation of the party was harmony.
Mr.. Lewis stated that, while he has
been Bryan democrat, he bai no
censure for those who differed with
him, and appealed to his friends Of the
press " no were present to cease their
attaokson Bryan and Cleveland as both

splendid pepsst awaited them. Every
courtesy and attention possible was
bestowed upon the visitors, whose
pleasure was but heightened by the
presence of their genial host among
them,
AS evidence of the very high esteem
in which Mr.. Lewis is held by his fell
low citizens, it may be said that every
business house in Montezuma closed

Several thousand persons damned the
place all afternoon, dropping coins in the
Slot and taking out whatever they fan

The place is at No. SS0s Broadway, and
is called the Automat It is fitted up
with an elaborate mechanical service,
made in Germany at cost of $4,000. 1t
Is the first restaurant of the kind to be
set UP in this city, and the second one
in this country. and the novelty caught
Broadway at once. Three minutes after
Ii was opened 1t was filled. Fashionable
shoppers jostled typewriter girls and
businessmen and strangers elbowed each
other in an effort TO test the strange
mocha nisn.
The cabinets OF marble and cut glass
hid both walls. Through the glass were
to be seen rows Of little elevators with
slots and levers for operating them.
On one side was a bar. where any drink
could be had by dropping the price in a
slot. and surrounding it were machines
where anything from a sandwich to pie
could be bought. Ten cents In the Slot
