FOUND MURDERED.
Manager of Furniture Company Shot,
10 Death in Negro Street in
Norfolk.

Norfolk, Va, Jan. 1S.-Charles f.
Savage, manager Of the Bridgman
Company, credit furniture and stove
dealers and also q notary public at
705 Church street, was shot and in
stantly killed about 1885 o'clock Sat-
urday night in front of 944 Cam
bridge street, a small negro street in
Huntersville. A bullet entered his
head directly under the right eye,
while another entered his right arm
pit, passing into the chest.
The murderer made good his escape
and no clue has been discovered by
the police.
Savage was out collecting from
colored people in Huntersville and
was coming east on Cambridge street
at the time Of the shooting. Two
theories are advanced by the police
to account for his murder. One is
that Of highway robbery and the
other is that some one may have had
a grievance against Savage because
Of some debt or money matter. If
the former was the case the murd-
erer was evidently scared off before
he could rob the dead man. as his
watch and chain and some change
and other belongings were found in
his pocket.
