THE TAX BOOKS CLOSISG.
Th. l4t Opportunity for People to Pay
Their Taxes to be Given To-Morrow.
Capt. J. J. McGowan, the Tax Collector,
has beeu engaged in his office for some
weeks in collecting poll taxes, and taxes
on real and personal property in this
county. During the past ten days the
greater portion of his time has been de
voted to the recention of poll taxes for the
year 1884. Up to yesterday afternoon at
5 o’clock 2,400 persons had paid their poll
taxes, presumably with the view of par
ticipating in the elections which are to
lie held next mouth. Those who have not
paid their taxes, whether poll, real or
personal, have but little time to do so, as
the books of the Tax Collector will be
closed to-morrow afternoon at 2 o’clock.
After that time all unpaid taxes will be
collected by the Sheriff.
In Fnvor of the Duty on Hire.
The New York Mail andiExpress a few
•days ago contained an interview with
John F. Talmage, of the firm of l>ar.. Tal
mage. Sons & Cos., of Savannah and New
York, in which he was made to say that
the tariff on rice should be taken off. The
interview has been given consid
erable publicity in the South.
Yesterday Mr. Talmagc telegraphed
to Savannah an emphatic denial of what
he had been made to say. He says the
publication is a gross distortion of an in
formal conversation with an apparent
gentleman. lie either misunderstood or
uesiguedly garbled the views expressed,
making them exactly contrary to
what they should be. Mr. Taltnage
says he is in favor not only of the present
duty on rice, but also of a stoppage on
certain prevailing {violations of the letter
and spirit ot the law, so that noe shall
receive the full benefit of the protective
policy of the government.
Miss Morris' Two Nights’ engagement.
The sale of 6eats for the engagement of
Miss Clara Morris opened very auspi
ciously yesterday morning. Over S7OO
worth of tickets were sold within the
first hour alter the opening of the box
sheet, this is an appropriate tribute to
rare genius. The coming of Miss Morris
marks an era in the theatrical events of
Savannah that will long be remembered,
and it is hoped the enterprising manager
of the Theatre will be encouraged to in
duce some of the other great stars, of the
class to which Miss Morris belongs, to
visit us. On Saturday night she appears
in her strongest piece, ‘-Miss Multon,” in
which there is, perhaps, greater scope for
the display of her wonderful powers than
in any* other play in her entire reper
toire.
Our Methodist Ministers.
Rev. W. M. Hayes, pastor of Wesley
Monumentol Church, has been assigned
to Talbotton. and Rev. G. W. Matthews,
of New Houston Street Church, to Albany
and Wesley Chapel. The congregations
over which these Christian ministers have
presided, and our citizens in general,

other fields. They will take with them
the best wishes of many friends to their
new homes. Their places have been filled
by Rev. W. C. Lovett at Wesley Monu
mental, and Rev. H. P. Myers at New
Houston Street Church. Rev. T. T. Chris

The session was short. Ihe board ©I officers

At the adjournment of the regular session
of the Ecclesiastical Conference it was de
cided, that in order to reach a final adjourn
ment last night, an afternoon session should
held. The afternoon announcements were
made, uad in the intervening time the Bishop
~i.d his Cabinet vrere in session arranging for
the appointments, wfcich were a longways
from being complete.
The conference was convened in toe after
noon by Rev. J. O. A. Clark. After the open
ing devotional exercises the reports of the
variant committee* were taken up.
An appeal was made for a more strict and
scriptural observance of the sabbath. The
conference denounced its f;Us“ r vance as a
dav of pleasure Hml recreation, and appealed
lo ‘the people bv their reproof to encourage
the church in its work of securing a conscien
tious religious observance of the day.
Ilm Temierance Committee handled the
prohibition question in unmistakable lan
guage. It appealed to the conference lo de
clare its approval of the movement by such
declarations of principles and belief as cannot
be misunderstood While disclaiming any in
.cntiou of bringing politics into the pulpd,
the committee asserted the absolute right of
the church to discuss any moral question that
might agitate the political world. They called
apon the conference to discourage every
movciccst in the interest* of the liquor traue
t or manufactures, and pledged each member to
oppose any candidate for political honors
whose interests lie with the liquor trade, and
to iliseountcnanco by pretext an<l example
and in every way. in the pulpit and out of it,
to endeavor to aid in suppressing the evil of
intemperance.
The Committee on Publications submitted
its reiiort. and the conference was addressed
:.y Dr. Potter, editor of the Christ inn AJro
r ttt. and Dr. McFerrin, of the Publishing
House. , .
\ vigorous appeal in behalf of the Paine
Institute and the education of the colored
people was made by Rev. P. S. Twitty. The
matter was argued before the conference in
an effective manner, and tfte responsibility of
educating the negroes was made the subject
of an earnest appeal in their behalf.
The last |uestlon brought before the
conference was the selection of a
piacn for holding the next session.
At the conference in Macon a year ago it was
generally understood that the next session
after the present on. shpuld be held in Bruns
wick. Savannah was agreed upon in view of
the fact that this year was centenary year,
and the conference could most appropriately
of all place* be held here. When the matter
wa* brought up Brunswick was the first place
nominated, Talbotton and Ssnderaville were
also nominaten. but were not urged except
upon territorial claims.
The delegates from the u|q,e counties were,
a majoritvof thcin.ib favor of cither Ssmlers
ville or Talbotton in preference to Bruns
wick, as they believed by rotation the next
conference should lie held in the upper part
of the district. The question was debated at
length. A vo,e was finally taken and stood:
Brunswick 10, Talbotton 22, Satidersville 0. A
majority vote decided the question in favor of
Brunswick. This was the last business of im
portance transacted during the afternoon
cost ion. ~
THE LAST SESSION.
The Memorial Service— Beading the Ap
pointments.
Every available scat in Trinity Church was
occupied at the closing session last night.
The galleries were crowded and the aisles
were filled with chaiis. In the absense of the
Bishop, wlio was engaged with liis Cabinet,
Rev. J. O. A. Clark presided during a Dart
of the session. After the devotional exercises
the memoirs of the ministers who had died
during the rear—Rev. James Dunwoddy,
Rev. E.J. Re’ntz and Rev. James M. Potter,
and of Bishops Cavanaugh and Pierce—were
read. Gen. Robert Toombs had been in
vited to be present and deliver an eulo
gy upon Bisnop Pierce, but owing to
ill-health he was unable to be present. A
letter from him was read, expressing his in
ability to be present and do honor to the
name of the loved Bishop, whose Intimate
friend he had been for years. At the close of
the memorial service which was deeply solemn
and impressive, the Bishop and his Cabinet
entered the church, and the regular order of
conference business was resumed. The Sta
tistical Secretary, Rev. R. M. Lockwood, sub
mitted his report, which showed the aggre
gate membership of the church in the confer
ence district to be 3U.500, an increase of 2,079
over last year. At the announcement of this
large increase the Bishop called upon
the congregation to rise and sing “Praise
God from Whom all Blessing Flow” in thank
fulness for the great progress which Method
ism had made. The increase, he said, was
greater comparatively than in the North
Georgia Conference, which reported an in
crease of 3,000 members. The number of local
preachers in the conference is 201. The num
ber of infants baptized during the year was
073 and the number of adults baptisms 2,302,
an increase of 53t5. The number of additions
to the church is 5,370, an increase of CSO. The
number of Sunday schools is 421, with 2,010
officers and teachers and 20,04s scholars, an
Increase of 1,252 scholars. The number of
churches in the conference is 453, valued at
$476.545. The number of sittings in the
churches is 11,076. The number of parsonage*
is 63.
The Financial Secretary’s report made a
gratifying showing of the conference finances.
The pastors were paid in the aggregate dur
ing the year 550,341 11, and the presiding el
ders $9,136 80. The to*U collections of the
year for all purposes amounted to $158,789 58,
an increase over last year of 57.426 20. This
is an average of $4 21 per member.
At the conclusion of the reports, which were
listened te with a great deal of interest, a
resolution expressing the sympathy of the
conference with Bishop Wilson in his illness,
was passed. The following resolution flixing
a dav of prayer also passed:
Rinr.lttd, That the Friday before the sec
ond Sunday in October be observed as a day
of fasting and special prayer for the blessing

conference arrangements. n^arri
These matters fcingdispoeed of. the Board
of Finance and the \
Emory, Wesleyan and Andrew Colleges were
announced.
The closing hymn—
“Blest be the dear uniting love.
That will not let us part,'
was sung by the vast congregation with an
Ts” eTspirit that told of deep feehng. As
the last stanza was sung Re'. Dr.
Kt-v knelt wiuun the altar and offered a
solemn prayer for the blessing of God upon
tne conference and its preachers, as they were
a boat to separate and go, many of them, into
new fields of labor. , .
Bishop Granberry. at the close of the prayer,
made hi* closing address. “It is with extreme
reluctance, " be said, “that 1 occupy a minute

MONEY FOR THE ARMORY.
An Appeal Made to the Public by the
Savannah Volunteer Guards Battalion.
At the meeting of the Savannah Volun
teer Guards Battalion last night impor
tant action was taken concerning the
erection of the proposed new armory on
Whitaker street, between President and
York streets. A paper was adopted in
which the aims of the organization are re
viewed. The objects are altogether public
and unselfish in their character, and con
template the erection of a building which
will be an ornament to the city. After
repeated alterations the resolutions point
out the fact that it has become apparent
that several thousand dollars more than
the money on hand and the sum proposed
to be borrowed will be necessary to fol
low the plan 9 to completion, leaving
the interior entirely plain. The battalion
is brought to face these conclusions:
Shall it cut down the plans and put up a
plain house or adhere to them and call on
the members to strain themselves further
financially, and on the public to extend
further aid anil patronage?
Feeling encouraged by assurances of the
people of Savannah, the battalion resolves
that the Building Committee shall pro
ceed with the erection of the arsenal un
der the present plans, reporting to the
quarterly meeting in January next suit
able resolutions to bind the corporation
as to issuance of coupon bonds.
As soon after the erection as possible
a bazaar shall be held for the
purpose of raising money to be applied to
the cost of construction. The command
ing officer is to have charge of the ap
pointment of a board of lady mana
gers, and other details. The command
ing officer and the captains of companies
are, by resolution, constituted a commit
tee to report to the quarterly meeting in
January a scheme for the payment down
of a fixed sum by such members as may
be willing to do so, for life-membership
and all necessary changes of rules to ef
fectuate the scheme; the amounts so
raised to be applied to the building fund.

KILLED ON THE TRAC^
Two Men Fatally Injured while Asleep
on the Line of the Savannah, Florida
and Western Railway on Sunday Morn
ing.
On Sunday morning as passenger
train No. 12, of the Savannah,
Florida and Western Railway, in
charge of Conductor A. P. Sanders, with
Engineer Henry Speer, was coming to
wards Savannah, two men, apparently
asleep, were discovered on the track near
the eighty-second mile post. The train
was running ou time and at high speed,
and the engiueer grasped the lever and
shut down brakes with only a shadow of
a hope to arrest the motion of the train in
time to save the two men from being
crushed beneath the wheels.
All effort was in vain. The
heads ot the men were resting on the
crossties, and as the train approached
them even the noise oi the switt running
cars failed to awaken them from sleep. A
minute seemed to lie but a second to En
gineer Speer. The engine quickly f-lnck
eued, but could not resist the momen
tum ot the train, and the locomotive
pilot struck both mtu in the back part of
the head and knocked them froiu the
track, the forearm of one of them, sup
posed to be Gustav Wachtler, being
caught tieneath the wheels, and mashed
almost to a pulp. Wachtler was also
slightly bruised in the face under the
right eye. while the other man was
slightly'injured on the left leg. As soon
as me train stopped both the men were
taken on board in an unconscious condi
tion by the train hands. Dr. Uae, of
Jesup, happening t'< be on the train,
gave the unfortunate men all the atten
tion that was possible under the circum-
stances. The injuries were, however, re
garded as fatal. Dr. Duncan was notified
by telegraph of the accident, and on the
arrival of the train at Savannah had the
sufferers transferred to the Savannah
Hospital about 3 o’clock in the afternoon.
Both men were apparently Germans and
about 21 or 22 years of age.
Neither of them were conscious or able
to speak, but Dr. Duncan found in the
pockets of one of them some photographs
aud letters ivhioh may lead to the identi
fication ot the v.ctims. The letters were
addressed to Gus Wachtler, who, it ap
pears. from a seaman’s certificate of dis
charge found in one of the letters, was
shipped on the schooner M.J. Foley on
June 14, 1884, at New York, and was
alierwards discharged at that port
in Sept. 29 last. The cer
tificate shows that he was a native of
Germany and 22 years of age. One of tho
letters was written by Henry W. Miller,
New Bremen, June 2, 1884; another by
Emijie Jung, New JJrepien, Jan. I”, 18b4,
a third letter was written by his sister
Bertha, No. 84 Everett street, Cincinnati,
Ohio, on May 27, 1884, and counseling him
not to desert his ship, “but to
remain and please his two sisters and
not disgrace them.*’ One of the men died
at the hospital at 11:55 o’clock Sunday
mghv an.* tfie other at 2:55 o’clock yester
day morning. Coroner ©heftall waj
notified and took charge of the photo
graphs and letters, and had the remains
of the deceased interred in Laurel Grove
Cemetery yesterday afternoon. An in
quest into the circumstances attending
the death of the parties will be held by the
Coroner to-morrow.

MATTERS OF STATE INTEREST.
An Interview vyith Mr. W. W. Gordon on
the Work of the Legislature- Tire state
Finance*.
The members of the Legislature from
Chatham county arrived home Sunday,
that body having adjourned on Saturday
until the second Wednesday in July. Mr.
W. W r . Gordon, who played a very
prominent part in the Legislature, par
ticularly in matters of financial legisla
tion, although b 2 was anew member,
was interviewed by a News reporter last
evening upon the work of the Legisla
ture and the outlook lor future action.
“The local option bill,” said Mr. Gor
don in answer to a question, “which at
tracted q great deal of attention, has gone
over until July. ' Judging from tho votes
taken in the House, l think it likely that
it will pass that body, provided it is so
amended that there will be no question
about its being a general bill. The ques
tion or constitutionality pas beep raised
aud I do not care to pass upon that.
There are now some 60 counties where
temperance laws of one kind and another
are in force. The pending bill is of a general
nature, but the bill provides in section 9
that ‘no election shall be held under the
provisions of the act for any county, city,
town or other place of the State where
bv law the sale of bpiritoue liquors is
already prohibited, either by high license,
local option or other legislation, so long
as these local laws remain in force.’ 1
quote from the bill. General laws must
bp uniform in their application. It is
claimed that this bill is not uniform be:
cause it does not apply to these sixty
counties, and is, therefore, a local bill. If
it is a local bill it must, of course, be
advertised thirty days in accordance with
the law govering local bills.
“What 6eems to be the temper of the
Legislature toward the Railroad Com
mission iawi”
“It is verv clearly in favor of a change.
A change has been recommended by the
Governor ami by the Commissioners
themselves, and the general feeling is
that a change should be made. The only
trouble is the difierence of opinion as to
the extent to which an alteration should
go. I feel hopeful that at the summer
session there will be such a modification
of the law as will relieve the railroads
trom the difficulties under which they
now labor.”
“Can you say anything about financial
legislation ?”
“To discuss the question fully would
take more time than either of us would
care to give. I can give a general idea,
however, in a few words. The discussion
in the matter of issuing the new bonds
turned mainly upon the bonds to replace
the Nutting bonds issued in 1873, and
which fall due in 1885 and 1886, many of
the members of the House holding that
under the provisions of the act authoriz
ing the Issue oi the Nutting bonds,
it was required that they &hould be
uaid by a special tax to be
levied for that purpose. The discussion
in reference to tne appropriation for the
new capitol building turned upon the
wording of the original capitol act, which
required that the money for the capitol
must be taken ‘out, of any surplus in the
treasury.’ An amendment to the appro
priation act provided that a specific sum
should be expended in 1885 aud 1886. In
other words, it changes the money to be
expended from an indefinite amount in
the surplus to a specific appropriation.”
“What was done in regard to the fertil
izer trade ?”
“There was a good deal of discussion
on this point, but was confined chiefly to
committees. As I was not a member of
the Agricultural Committee, I can only
speak from hearsay. The impression I
gathered is that the views entertained
by extremists will net prevail. There is
a good deal of complaint, and it would
seem to be desirable that some plan
should be adopted for a second sampling
of the fertilizer at the time
of its purchase by consumers,
and for the preservation ot such samples
as evidence to be used in the case of a
suit based upon the failure of considera
tion.”
“Now as to general results,” continued
Mr. Gordon. “Having a large number
of new members, they were rather more
generous about suspendiag the rules for
the introduction of local bills than was in
the end found co be desirable, and at the
close the general feeling was that if the
members had adhered closely to the regu
lar order of business more would have
been accomplished.”
“Do you think at thr summer session
the substitute of Georgia marble for
oolitic limestone in the capitol building
will be authorized?”
“I think such authorization very doubt
ful.”

THE HEALTH CONFERENCE.
Dr. McFarland Diicuuei the Result of
the Meeting in Washington.
Dr. J. T. McFarland, Health Officer of
Savannah, who has returned from the
National Health Conference, held at
Washington week before last, is very
favorably impressed with the work of the
body, and think* great good will come out
of its deliberations. About 70 boards of
health were represented, and there was a
very general interchange of views and
discussion of the needs of the various
sections.
The action looking to the formation of
a National B aril of Health on a different
basis from the old board is considered
most important, and many wise pro
visions have been incorporated in the bill
to be submitted to Congress. Dr. Mc-
Farland was a member of the Com
mittee on Municipal Legislation, and
the committee gave careful consideration
to various matters of local sanitation, in
cluding the proper care of surface wells,
cespools, etc., the drainage of low ground
and stagnant jxjols. the purification of
crowded localities, the inspection of food
aud the prompt removal of garbage. The
report of the committee fully covered
these points and contemplated the proper
preparation of cities for the appearance
of cholera or other infectiousjdisease.
Dr. McFarland is at work upon his re
port, which will probably le presented at
the next meeting ot City Council. He
thinks the outcome ot the conference will
be very beneficial as to results, particu
larly should there be danger from the
cholera.
