TALK OF SECURING
INJUNCTION HAS CEASED.
Opponents of City Hall Seem to
Have Abandoned Fight.

Opponents of City Hall Seem to
Have Abandoned Fight.
The talk of securing an injunction to
prevent the erection of the new City
Hall seems to have ceased and there
is no evidence that those behind the
movement have perfected any plans to
ask the aid Of the courts.
DR.. B. S. Purse, the apparent leader
of the movement, refused to talk yes
terday as to the plans that would be
adopted by those who think that the
city taxes should not be appropriated
for the erection of a home for the city
officials.
DR.. Purse was asked if those who
have advocated the injunction pro-
ceeding had arranged with counsel to
take the necessary legal steps to pre-
vent the city administration erecting
the new City Hall. He declared that he
had already talked too much, and re-
fused to confirm or deny that the neces-
Sary arrangements to secure the in
junction had been perfected.
1t was learned from a pretty reliable
source that the movement had fallen
through and that no injunction would
be applied for to prevent the construc-
ton of the building.

EXTENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS
BEING MADE AT BREWERY.
Stockholders Reelected Directors
at Annual Meeting.


At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Savannah Brewing Com
pany, held yesterday in the Office of
the secretary, Mr.. J. Randolph Ander-
son, the old board of directors was re-
elected and a sem-annual dividend of
212 per cent. was declared.
Because there was not a quorum of
directors in the city the annual cleo
ton of officers did not take place. 1t
is probable, however, that the present
officers will be reelected at a meeting
to be held some time next week. The
stockholders were very well pleased
with the showing that has been made
and extensive Improvements are now
being made in the plant.
The capacity of the plant is being
enlarged almost two-fold and a special
on the market this spring. More at
tention will be paid to the bottle trade
and the stockholders are gratified at
the outlook. The brewery is being
operated on a sound basis and with
additional storage room there is certain
to be an increase in business.
The following are the officers and
directors of the company:
President-A. S. Guckenheimer.
Vice President. f. Minis.
Manager-W. w. Starr.
Secretary-J. Randolph Anderson.

RETAIL MERCHANTS
KICK ON PAWN SHOPS.
Will Ask Council to stop Them in
Doing General Trade.

Doing n General Trade.
The Retail MERCHANTS Association
at it's January meeting, held in the
Chamber of Commerce yesterday, dis
cussed a number of matters of import
ance to the members of the organiza-
ton and of interest to the public. OF
chief Importance in these matters was
the protest against allowing pawn
brokers to buy stocks of goods and
then sell them under the guise of I'M
redeemed pledges.
There is a city ordinance against this
practice the members of the association
stated, but the pawn shops constantly
violate it, selling thousands and thou
sands of dollars worth of goods that
have been bought outright for sale and
not received in the shape of pledges
for loans. Such sales, said one of the
officers of the association, hurts every
merchant in the retail trade, and we
want them stopped.
With the object of putting their pro-
test before the proper authorities the
association will ask the Mayor for a
special meeting of Council before which
the members of the association can APP
pear as body and make known their
objections to the present practice of
the pawn shops. The request for this
special meeting will probably reach the
city authorities to-day.
Another matter that the association
wants corrected is the practice of al
lowing certain small stores to remain
open on Sunday. There is an ordi-
nance against this practice, too. de-
clare the members OF the association,
and we want it enforced. AS in the
case of the pawn brokers this matter
will be brought to the attention of
Council at the special meeting that is
asked for.
The Merchants Association decided
that everybody having the interest of
the city in View should do all posi-
BILE to advertise it, the more so as GER
tain concessions in the way of tour
list rates and stop-over privileges have
been secured from the railroads. In
order to bring the claims of the city
to the attention of the public general
ly, the association will ask. the trade
bodies and every merchant of the city
to use. in future, envelopes that shall
have printed on the front of them
some scene of the city, and brief ar
ticle showing its advantages.
The association also put itself on rec
ord yesterday as desiring the tourist
trade for Savannah, and being ready to
cooperate in any reasonable plan, and
with any other body or bodies to get
it to Savannah

STORM SIGNAL HOISTED.
Mississippi Valley Storm Is Rapidly
Approaching savannah.

approaching savannah
Shortly after 10 o'clock last night the
following telegram was received at the
Weather Bureau:
Washington, d. c., Jan. 21.-South-
west storm warnings at 1915 p. m.
from Jacksonville to New York. Mis-
sissippi Valley storm moving rapidly
eaSt-nort-east. Will cause high
southerly winds along gulf and South
Atlantic states on Friday"
The storm signals were at once hoist
ed at the Weather Bureau and on the
Morning News building, and notices
were sent to the sub-stations in the
district. Vessels sailing northward or
along the gulf are cautioned and warn
ed of high winds. The barometer in
Savannah began falling at noon yes
terday and continued its downward
course during the entire day. This
probably means that considerable of
the force of the storm will be felt here.
Yesterday morning the storm was
central over the Mississippi Valley
with two principal centers, one at st.
Louis, Mo-, and the other at Palo,
Tex. A large low area, in which rain
was falling, extended from Texas to
the Lake region. BY night this low
area had moved rapidly eastward and
was covering nearly the entire coun-
try east of the Mississippi river. Rain
was reported from nearly every station
in the East. The storm should be felt
here some time to-day, marked by rain
fall and high southerly winds.

WOUND CAUSED DEATH
OF HENRY GARWES.
PeritOnitis Had Set In and His Case
Was Hopeless.

was dOpeAess.
From the wound inflicted accidental
ly while deer hunting on st. GATHERINGS
Tuesday afternoon, Henry Garwes,
keeper of Laurel Grove Cemetery, died
shortly after noon yesterday.
A complete account of the accident
was given in the Morning News, and
it was realized that Mr.. Garwes' con-
dition was such that he could not re-
cover. AS had been expected by DIR.
George L. Hartman, the attending ply
stefan, peritonitis set in and caused
death.
Everything possible was done for the
wounded man, but he was beyond med
ical skill when he was brought to the
city, twenty-four hours after the buck
shot had entered his abdomen and
punctured his intestines. The members
of the hunting party were bowed down
in grief, although it was clear that
the accident was the almost natural
result of Mr.. Garwes leaving his stand
without giving notice.
Mr.. GarWes was a native of Germany
and was 40 years of age. He came to
Savannah direct from his mother coun-
try about twenty years ago and en-
barked in business. He was proprietor
OF a grocery store on West Broad
street and took an active part in poll
tics. He was prominent in the ranks
of the administration forces, and four
years ago was elected keeper of Laurel
Grove Cemetery. Mr.. Garwes was a
member of Teutonia Lodge No. 7, K.
of p. and was also a member of the
Uniformed Rank.
When his death was announced the
flag on the City Exchange and that
over the headquarters of the South
Side Administration Club, were low
cred to half mast. The funeral will
take place on Sunday afternoon from
St. Pauls Lutheran Church. and the
interment will be in Laurel Grove. The
services will be conducted by Rev. M.
j. Epting.
Besides a widow, Mr.. Garves leaves
three children, a son and two little
daughters.
