ANNUAL TRADE REVIEW
FOR THE
FALL OK 1884.
THE MORMN6 SEWS
Mammoth Trade Edition
WILL EE IfISrKD
MONDAY, SEPT. 1.
Th Annual Trade Review of the business of
Savannah and the South during the commer
cial year now about' closing will be issued
by the Mobntno News on Monday Sept. 1.
This edition, will be printed on a mammcth
■beet, 35 1 42, and will be, as all previous edi
tions have been, a credit to Savannah.
In addition to a complete review of the
business of Savannah, embracing all its
branches, and a resume of its commercial and
■hipping news, it will also give a general out
ine of the trade of the country.
This edition will be a paper which every
citizen will take a pride in sending abroad to
rienda and correspondents, as an evidence of
ths prosperity of his home, and will give to
those receiving copies of it an accurate idea of
the importance of Savannah as a place of busi
ness.
The outlook is excellent for an'active and
healthy fall and winter business. The
■tringenry of tb* money market for months
past has compelled purchasers to limit their
demand. The sale of the new crop, however,
will relieve the money pressure and bring
into market cash buyers. The Trade Review
afford' au unsurpassed opportunity for our
merchants to address buyers of Georgia and
Florida, people who do most of tlieir trading
with Savannah and look to the Morning
News for information.
In addition to being sent to every reader of
the Daily Morning News, The Trade Re
view will be mailed to every subscriber to the
Savannah Weekly News, which editions,
with copies sent by advertisers, will give this
issue an aggregate
Circulation of 20,000 to 25,000 Copies,
An advertisement in the columns of the
Trade Review will be a direct solicitation
from the merchant to the buyer, and cannot
fail to be of benefit.
Advertisements must be sent in by Satur
day n.on, Aug. 30.

QtTITING OX LIVE FREIGHT.
The Southern Express Company Will
Carry No More Persons.
The Southern Express Company has de
termined to receive no more live freight.
It has as much business as it can attend
to, and does not care to be bothered with
helpless children or idiots. In times past
it was quite customary to send persons by
express. Negro slaves were often sent
frean the point at which they were pur
chased to the houseof their master in this
manner. Children were frequently sent
In this manner to save the expense of a
protector. Not long since the parents of
two children died in Savannah, and the
children were sent by express to Missis
sippi to their grandparents.
The rules recently issued by the com
pany state that no person shall be reeeiv
ed for transportation.
The express agent is more careful in
his attentions to helpless persons in his
care than conductors would probably be.
A conductor has a larger number of per
sons to look after, and cannot give that
attention to persons In his charge that
the express agent could. In times past
conductors were not as obliging as they
are now. The few railroads had a mo
nopoly and cared very little whether they
obliged passengers or not. Now there is
competition, and there is a choice in
routes from one point to another. So
great has been the progress in helps to
traveling that a lady will now fare better
at the hands of conductors and passenger
agents than under charge of an escort
ignorant of the rules ol travel.
* THE TELFAIR HOSPITAL.
Hi* Contract in the Hands of the
Builder.
The contract for the “Telfair Hospital
for Indigent Females’’ has been awarded
to Mr. B. R. Armstrong by Messrs. Wm.
jfeyle Habersham and Wm. Hunter,
trustee*. The building, as heretofore
stated in the Morning News, is to be
located on the southwest corner of New
Houston and Drayton streets facing
north on the Park extension. The build
ing will contain 30 rooms, and will be so
constructed as to admit of additions as
the necessities of the institution may
from time to time require. The architec
ture is com posit®, and the plans were pre
pa red*by°M ess ra.Fay A Eichburg, of At
lanta. The building will cost about
<3O 000. This institution was provided
for by the Will of the late Miss Mary Tel
fair and w ill he built and endowed from
the residuary fund of her estate.
SAVANNAH’S INTERIOR TRADE.
The Hawkinsville Navigation Company
and What It Seeks to Accomplish - New
River Connections with Savannah—
> What the Projector of the Enterprise
Says About it.
The commercial relations between Sa
vannah and Hawkinsvile, and the con
tinuance of the Oconee, Oemulgee and
Altamaha river trade, constitute a ques
tion of great importance to the cotton
and naval stores interests of Savannah,
and all classes of trade with which they
are allied. The Morning News, some
time ago. referred to tbe differences be
tween the merchants of Hawkinsville
and the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad, and the movement to
organize the Hawkinsville Navigation
Company and place a line of steamers on
the Oemulgee, Altamaha and Oconee
rivers running direct to Savannah.
Capt. W. A. Jeter, projector of the en
terprise. is in the city. In conversation
with a Morning News reporter yester-
I dav. he said that the movement was re
ceiving substantial encouragement. Capt.
Jeter, representing A\ . A. Jeter A Cos., is
the owner of two steamers, the “Collville”
and -Marv Jeter.” plying on the upper
end of the’ route between Old Lake and
Hawkinsville, a distance of 150 miles.
These steamers each have a capacity of
about TOO bales of cotton, and will be
used on tbe Hawkinsville end of the
route. It is the purpose of
the company to secure $9,000
stock among the Savannah mer
chants to build a steamer tor the lower
end of the route to ply between Savannah
and towns on the Altamaha, connecting
with the steamers on the other end. This
SO,OOO, with tbe amount invested by
Messrs. Jeter A Cos., will constitute tbe
capital stock of the company, amounting
to $20,000.
A large cotton compress is now in
course of erection at Hawkinsville on the
-of the Oemulgee, and will soon be
ready for business. With the opening of
the hew route cotton will be pressed and
put aboard the steamers and brought direct
to Savannah. “By this means,” said
Capt. Jeter, “there is no doubt tha* we
can increase our cotton shipments to 30,-
0w bales annually. In establishing this
line we will eradicate the movement ot
the East Tennessee. Virginia and Geor
gia in taking our cotton and naval
stores to Northern markets. I at first
thought of co-operating with the road, but
alter locating its position I found it advis
able to change the plan altogether and
adopt an all water route ior the protec
tion of our market and the enterprise we
are promoting.
••Savannah being the natural outlet for
our trade our cotton could not be be ship
jied by the Northern route with that de
gree of satisfaction with which it could
be shipped to Savannah, as it would re
quire fully two weeks to place it on the
market. The fluctuations in the price
during the past few years warned us not
to accept the proposition.”
••When will the route be opened for
business?”
‘•Just as soon as we can place a steamer
on this end to connect with the steamers
already running from Hawkinsville. We
shall not wait for the completion of the
new boat, which I may say will lie built
in Savannah, and will be ready by the
first of December, but we shall run a
chartered steamer. I am already nego
tiating with the Deßary-Baya Line.”
••Another feature,” continued Capt.
Jeter, “will be the development ot the
country on the west side of the Oemulgee,
which has never been opened up, and
which is one of the finest sections in the
state, not alone for cottou and naval
stores, but for general agricultural pro
ducts, Laving magnificent timber forests
which have never been touched. This
section will be opened up by running a
railroad over an old roadbed titty miles
southward from a place on the Oemulgee
called Old Bond Trail. This new country,
I may sately say. in four years
time, will furnish 150,000 barrels of
rosin annually. The enterprise will
increase the revenues of Savannah, and
will more than double its present naval
stores trade.”
Capt. Jeter will remain in the city to
day and will call upon the merchants for
their encouragement of the enterprise.
MILITARY IN THE DIAMOND.
The and Hussars to Try Con
clusions This Afternoon.
The military men have gone into the
national game with a zeal that has almost
lost to them the love of the soldiers’
school. The game to-day between the
Chatbams and the Hussars promises to
b ■ full of interest. The game played by
Hussars with Company 14, of the Guards,
a week ago, developed the tact that they
had an unusually strong nine. Their
powerful batting and splendid running
resulted in the defeat of the Guards to
the score of 34 to 17. The Chathams have
not been without practice. The Hussars
undoubtedly have the strongest nine in tbe
city in point of muscle and activity. The
Artillery make up by having Lincoln and
Bailey—the founders of the old Dixies—
and who constituted its battery at the
time when the Dixies were champions of
the State, and when they went touring
southward and painted Florida red.
When it was understood that Lincoln
would play short stop and Bailey first
bast instead of in the battery, the two
nines were considered more on an equali
ty, and the Hussars began to be favorites
iii betting circles. The Chathams
strengthened their nine by putting on
George Cann, who is a No. 1 play
er in every respect, Cann was scooped in
by the Artillery at its last meeting on
Monday uight as an offset to Geo. McAlpin
who was smuggled into the Hussars jus.
before they tackled the Guards. On the
other baud tbe Hussars will put in two
new men. Pritchard and Myers, in the
places of “Jiinpsey” Schley and “Champ”
McAlpin, who will add considerably to
the already strong team. Altogether a
line game is expected. The nine3, as at
present placed, areas follows:

ThcfeArtillery have adopted a neat uni
form of white,* with red stockings. The
Hussars retain the same tasteful uniform
they wore on their game with the Guards,
and which made them such favorites with
the ladies. Waring and Nicoll, of the
Hussars, are beautiful runners. Wylly
has been practicing daily on pitch
ing. and he now shows a very per
ceptible curve. Cann’s pitching, while it
has no curve, is delivered with the pre
cision of the most deadly science, and is
very swift. Capt. Schley, while by no
means confident, has his men well in
hand, and expects to work them fot all
they are worth.
MURDERED AT MOXTEITH.
A Negro Lad Shot Down By a Mulatto
—Tlie Murderer in Jail—The Coroner’*
Investigation.
On Monday afternoon a negro, about 10
years old. named John Richards, was
shot EC-ar Monteith station on the Charles
ton and Savannah Railway by Charles
Devan. a mulatto about 20 years of age.
The shooting is said to have been without
provocation. Devan drawing a revolver
from his pocket and saying, “I am going
to shoot you,” tired without another word.
The ball was ot 32-calibre size, and
penetrated the forehead of the lad just
above the nose.
The victim, who lived with his father
oil Gaston street, two doors east of W est
Broad street, was brought to the city and
placed in St. Joseph's Infirmary yester
day morning, w here the wound was ex
amined by Coroner Sheftall. The ball
apparently had entered the brain. Devan
was arrested by three negroes on a war
rant issued by .Justice Winkler, and was
committed to jail on the charge
of an assault with intent to
murder. About 4 o'clock in the after
noon Richards died. The remains were
moved to the lather’s residence, where an
inquest will be held this morning. When
the death of Richards was announced,
Coroner :?heftall went to the jail and
lodged a commitment against Devan
charging him with murder.
DAMS AND JK l TILS.
Further River ami Harbor Improve
ments.
The contractors, Messrs. John Gaynor
& Cos., to whom were awarded the con
tract for building the works called for in
the plan for the improvement of the Sa
vanuab river and harbor, it is understood
will begin operations in a few weeks.
Messrs. Gaynor & Cos. are the same par
ties who bad the previous contract, and
therefore have on hand the plant neces
sary to do the work without delay. The
first work to be done, is the completion
of the wlarns at the “The Flats.” When
this is completed the dam from “Horse-
Shoe Shoals” to the quarantine station
will be built. This dam is for the pur
pose of concentrating the current, which
now divides and flows on both sides of
the “Oyster Beds” in the main ship chan
nel, thereby scouring away the well
known “Sabasticook shoal” just south of
the spar buoy. The removal of that ob
struction will be a great advantage to the
navigation of the river.
The building of the dam at the “Horse
Shoe” will probably cause the present
quarantine anchorage to shoal rapidly,
and vessels will be therefore compelled to
anchor some distance east of the Oyster
Beds soon after its completion. It may
necessitate the removal of the quarantine
station to some other point. Alfthese mat
ters, however, have probably received the
consideration of the authorities.
MANGLED IN'THE STREET.
A DRIVER CRCSHED AGAINST A
LAMP-POST.
A Frightful Runaway Accident—John
Downing Dragged Under a Frantic
Horse and Fatally Injured—Removed
to the Infirmary and attended by Four
Physicians—Details of the Casualty.
About 8 o’clock yesterday morning,
John Downing, while driving a horse and
wagon belonging to John J. Reily, stopped
on St. Julian street, east of the market,
and took the bridle from the animal for
the purpose of having it repaired in W.
B. Mell A Co.’s saddlery establish
ment. Before he had an opportunity
to substitute a halter the horse suddenly
leaped forward, ad. turning in upon the
pavement, dashed off towards Congress
street. Downing, witn the intention of
arresting the animal, seized the collar of
the harress and the neck strap with one
hand, and the shaft of the vehicle with
tbe other, but the horse being fright
ened dashed madly forward at full speed,
dragging the voung man along close
to the wall of the building with the wagon
close behind him. It was dangerous to
let go his hold, and he clung on until turn
ing the corner of Barnard street, when the
animal wheeled across the pavement,
jamming Downing against a lamp po6t,
cutting open the back of his head and
right leg. and tearing the flesh on his
face in a frightfnl manner. He was also
cut in three places near the kidney, from
which blood poured in a stream.
The vehicle was upset on the south side
of Congress street, in front of Lovell A
Lattimore's store, where the horse was
seized bv a bvstander. A number of wit
nesses of the accident at first thought
Downing was killed. He was bleeding
ternblv. and on being lifted up he raised
t>oth hands to the back of bis head, and,
complaining of pain in his legs, asked the
bystanders to pull on his limbs, fancying
they were broken.
H"e was placed in a wagon and taken to
Dr. E. H. Nichols’ office, corner of Alier
corn and South Broad streets, and from
there to the St. Joseph’s Infirmary. Dr.
Nichols made a careful examination of
the wounds. Tne cut in the back of the
head was about three inches in length
and penetrated to the skull. Tbe two
cuts on the face reached tbe cheek bone,
while the cut on the right thigh was
found to be deep. No bones were frac
tured, and the wounds were speedily
dressed. The three cuts in the back were
at first deemed worthy of little attention,
and were examined last. Each of them
looked as though it might have been
caused by the end of a nail, or the points
of the horse’s shoe. The sufferer was
turned on that side, when a stream of
blood poured out. The doctor
made a closer examination and ascer
tained that the pelvic bone was fractured
in a frightful manner. That usually firm
portion of the body felt to the touch as
though it had been masbod to a pulp.
The doctor alleviated the pain of the un
fortunate man as much as was possible
under the circumstances, and at 10
o’clock Dr. Read arrived at the
infirmary, and after an examinition
made a deep incision across the face of
the pelvic bone, when it was discovered
that it was broken into many pieces.
About filteen of the fragments were re
moved, one of them being about two
inches in length, and from an
inch to an inch and a half in width.
He was assisted in the operation by
Drs. Oliveros, Charlton and Lincoln
I p to midnight the sufferer was con
scious, but was apparently b'eeding
internally. He frequently drew a long
sigh, and* yawned every now and then.
These symptoms were supposed to be indi
cative of a dangerous condition. The sur
i geons were, however, divided in opinion
whether the wound was bleeding in
ternally or not. At all events, the in
juries were deemed latal.
Downing is a fair complexioued
man about 24 years of age and of
medium height, ne resided oti Duffy
street, near Cuvier, and had a a brother
in-law in the city by the same name.
He was supposed by many to have
been the victim of the accident.

The wonder of those who go to the Har

SAVANNAH’S FOREIGN COMMERCE.
A Line of Steamships Direct to Liver
pool—A Magnificent Fleet of Vessels
for the Cotton Trade.
An evidence of Savannah’s rapidly in
creasing foreign commerce is the establish
ment of a direct line of steamships to
Liverpool by Watts, Ward A Cos., one of
tne largest and wealthiest European
houses controlling a large amount of the
Mediterranean trade. The move
has been under advisement for
some time. Yesterday Messrs. J.
B. West A Cos., agents of the Merchants
and Miners Transportation Company, and
who have been appointed agents of the
new line received a cablegram
authorizing the announcement that
it had been established. This inaugurates
an enterprise that has been before the
public for many years.
A Morning News reporter called upon
Mr. West and found him busily engaged
at his office. “Yes, the first vessel will
sail from Savannah on Sept. 20,2 he said,
in reply to the reporter's inqffiry. “I
have here the cablegram giving the names
of the vessels that will comprise
the fleet. Some of them have
already been engaged in the
Savannah trade. The fleet will comprise
ten iron screw steamships, having an
average capacity of 6.000 bales of cotton.
They are the Anerly, Canonbury, Co
lombo. Camden, Ealing, Finsbury, Fos
colia, Finchley, Jesmond and Plessev.
The Anerly will sail on or about Sept. 20.
It was our" intention that the first sailing
date should have been appointed earlier
than this, but the slow arrival of cotton
will hardly warrant a cargo before then.
The next sailing will be on Oct. 4.
“The line will be maintained fortnightly
as a freight line, but if *the ex
periment is successful, and the trade
will justify a passenger service, passeu
ger vessels’ will be added. The firm has
several magnificent passenger ships ply
ing between London and the Mediterra
nean ports, and they will be transferred to
the Savannah line’ if the enterprise is
what it is expected it will be.
“It is, of course, an experiment. If the
inward freight is what it is anticipated,
there can be no doubt that the line will be
permanent. The chief inward freight
upon which we shall have to depend will
be coal, kainit and cotton ties.
“Will the entire fleet be employed in
the Liverpool trade?”
“It is probable that six vessels will be
sufficient for the Liverpool line, leaving
four as a reserve, which may be employed
in trade with Bremen and the continental
ports.
“While the enterprise is almost wholly
experimental there is hardly a doubt of
its sui cess,” continued Mr. West, “and it
is not at all improbable that a regular
trade will be established between Savan
nah and Bremen as an outgrowth of the
Liverpool line. Savannah will now be the
only port between New Orleans and Bal
timore maintaining a regular foreign
steamship line.”

Facts, Not Fancies.
It has been our aim since we established
business to meet the wants of each and
every customer, and to give them honest,
fair and square dealing, which can be
seen by our present business, and which
certainly speaks for our past. In doing
this we not only increased our trade, but
increased our reputation of being the
only reliable Clothiers and Gents
Furnishers in this city. We are now
prepared to give extra bargains, as we
must sell the remainder of our Spring
Stock iu order to make room for our
extensive Fall Stock. Give us a call.

Nothing so vividly tells of a shattered
life or the gripings of poverty as the tat
tered and patched raiment of a man. It
excites in our breasts a touch of surprise
that such things can be possible under
reasonable conditions, particularly when
we know how small a sum of money will
buy enough clothing to cover nature and
regard decency.
I still continue to sell my fine tailor
made clothing at absurdly low prices.
Clothing must go, and I will not stand on
a question, as room for fall stock is com
pulsory.
I am’ now offering such real bargains
that it would be a genuine investment to
buy and hold the goods over until they are
again seasonable —bearing in mind, of
course, that there are still left nearly
three months of weather that will nof find
summer goods inappropriate. Every state
ment I make will be substantiated on ap
plication. I have a reputation to sustain,
and haven’t the slightest idea of having it
questioned.

Being reduced to more than half that such goods of equal quality oan be had else
where, we doubt not our ability to please every one and to be enabled soon to an
nounce the closing sale of the season, for we have determined to dispose ol our entire
summer stock at any sacrifice, so that we shall not be hampered next season with
any stock which we have carried over. We find it to be a very poor policy to carry
stock over from season to season, hence we rather slaughter our goods now. .
