Fatal ARRAY in Savannah.

Political partisans of the two rival fac

Yesterday afternoon in front of the city
exchange. "Babe" Dyer was killed;
Frank Nagel, bystander, was shot
through the eye, and is 10 critical COD
dilion; Pat Kearney, policeman on
duty at the time, was shot through the
neck, and c. H., or Sap" Dyer was
shot twice through the legs. "Snatcher"
Dyer and Thomas Hewitt, a private de-
tectiye, are under arrest. Besides those
under arrest or wounded, those who par
ucipated in the shooting were Harbor'
master James Mcbride, bis son, Tin
Mcbride, who is a clerk in bis father
office; Plumbing Inspector Richard NC
Kenns, and James Lane, keeper OF the
police stables. 1t is not known definitely
who fred the shots by which the Killed
and wounded were struck. The shooting
was general and about forty shots were
fired. The battle started when the three
Dyers attacked McKenns, one telling
him with a billy. The others came to
the assistance Of McKenna. There had
been a fight earlier in the day in the
courthouse, when McKenDa beat "Babe'
Dyer with billy. This had fDllOwed a
fight in the courthouse on Wednesday
last, when two of the Dyer brothers
fought Police Patrol Driver Monroe.

Trouble at a Hospital.

Considerable interest is being mani
tested in the trouble at the Mary Wash
ington Hospital, in Fredericksburg,
which grew out Of the discharge of all
of the young lady nurses by the board OF
managers for insubordination. The
trouble first began a week ago, when a
colored woman was taken to the iDstitu-
tion Tor treatment. There is no colored
ward in the hospital All of the nurses
refused TO nurse her, and the head nurse
bad to take the case in hand and nurse
the patient until she was able to leave
the institution. The main trouble seems
to have arisen over the discharge of a
boy who was employed by the directors
to make and keep in order the fires.
Thinking nothing Of this, and expecting
that new boy would be employed, the
nurses brought up the wood from the
cellar and made and kept the tires in
order. When they found that a new
boy would not be employed to do the
work, but that they would have to con-
tinue the work, they rebelled. Conse-
luenuy Trey were discharged. 1t is
said that some of the nurses had made
themselves very Objectionable to some OF
the patients at the institution. The
staff is now composed OF the head nurse
and young lady who recently entered
the institution. 1t isunderstood that an
entire new corps of nurses will be Sc
cured

Venezuela Preparing for war.

A dispatch from WilIemstad, Island
Of Curacoa, says that a traveller who
arrived there yesterday from Venezuela
said:
"President Castro is busily engaged
in enlisting throughout the republic and
in other ways preparing for war. Cen
erals in each State have been commits
stoned. and orders have been given to
call the recruits to the col1rs. lnfor-
nation from the best sources indicates
that the people do not support President
Castro. On all sides are heard express
sions of desire 10 revolt and overthrow
the Presidents government as soon as the
French 1lockade is decls red. A weli-ln-
formed Venezuelan told me that the
troops will desert their colors, AS they
have all been compelled to join the
army, voluntary enlistment being un-
known 10 Venezuela. Puerto Cabel'o
and La Guaira are the only ports capable
of making a slight defense. The form

the latter has four modern 6-inch guns,

pieces. which would be blown to pieces

er President Castro csn raise more
than 10000 men who will take the
field with any show of spirit. The men
are armed with Mauser rifles, but they
never PRACTICE shooting. They have 20

few mountain guns. The Venezuelan
navy consists of FIVE small craft concen-
trsted at La Guaira. 1t is reported al
Csracss that the American Minister,
Mr. w. w. Russell, is persona non
grats, owing to the seeming siding OF
the United States with France, and that
he may be given bis passports. The
German charge d'afaires indig glantly
contradicts the reports, said to be circu-
lated by President Castro aud others OF
his surrounding, that Germany is sup
porting Vent zuela's policy against
France. General Alcantara, Vepe-
zueIan, educated at West Point, has been
appointed to the military command OF La
Gusira. He has received orders to fire Oh

the child had been asphyxiated with the

charging the Jury, said their verdict was
a proper one and compelled by the evil

them to do so. He had no doubt, he
said, that counsel for the defendant

Old Woman Convicted of Murder.

Sarah Jones, seyenty-year-old wom-
an was convicted of murder in the
6rst degree in the Court of Oyer and
rerminer at Philadelphia yesterday for
the killing of her foster-daughter's child
within few hours after j, was born.
The case is pathetic one, and excited
the sympsthies not only OF the lawyers
on each side, but also those OF the trial
Judge and the jury. Mrs. Mary Jones,
the mother OF the dead child, and Frank
Jones. the son of the aged woman, are
also under indictment for completely in
the murder. The evidence produced at
the trial shows that when the child was
born the grandmother asked the attend
ing physician to chloroform the babe,
which be promptly declined to do. The
