Alabama and Chattanooga Bail*

The Master Commissioner’s Sale Yesterday
_D. N. Stanton to the Front Again.
From ibe Mobile Tribuno, 9th inet J
The purchasing bondholders, who
bought the Alabama and Chattanooga
railroad two or three years ago for 81,300,-
000 and failed to pay for it, did not bid
oil it at the sale yesterday, by order of
the United States Circuit Court, in front
of the Custom-liouBo
Major T. M. LeBaron, the auctioner
employed by Robert W. Healy and Na
thaniel W. Trimble, Master Commission
er?, at 12 o’clock announced the sale of
the Alabama and Chattanooga railroad.
Gen. Healy read,the advertisement that
was published by order of the court, and
when he had concluded Mr. J. L. Smith
mounted the auctioneer’s block and said
he had two papers to read for the inform
ation of panics interested. The first set
forth that the State of Alabama had a su
perior lieu, which would prevent a title to
the purchaser under the present sale.
Being asked by whose authority he rep
resented the State, an answer was given
by Mr. R. Smith, of the firm of R. H. &
B. Inge Smith, that his firm represented
the lien of the State, which will be main
tained for the benefit of the bondholders.
The other paper related to the Ala
bama and Chattanooga railroad sinking
fund, created by the State Legislature.
Next comes forward Stephens Groom,
representing the State of Mississippi, to
which the railroad owes taxes for 1874
and 1885, amounting to between six and
seven thousand dollars, with the penalties
added, which claim constitutes a lien on
fhat part of the property of the road in
that State.
And now comes J. Little Smith, of the
fnm of Herndon & Smith, representing
a large number of holders of laborer’s
hens.
<!• Little Smith asked the master com-
imssioners what they proposed to take in
satisfaction of the 8100,000 cash payment
by the purchaser or purchasers—whether
actual cash or claims.
Gen. Ilealy replied that they would re
quire actual cash, certified checks or ac
cepted drafts, such as any bank of good
standing here would negotiate.
then Sam Rice came to the front, as
■he representive of certain interests
tected by the sale of the road.
Ihe bidding then commenced, Major
{foaron called for a bid to start with,
m' Gmnilin bid 8100,000; then Gen.
Usf, President of tho Mobile and
Montgomery railroad, bid 8105,000. The
next b,d was 8110,000, followed by bids

now Babcock has been “vindicated”
again. The jury that has been hearing
the ugly stories about him for the past
two weeks left the court-room about 4
o clock this afternoon. They went to
their room in the upper part of the
court-house. While they, were absent,
Boss Shepherd came iDto the court
room and sat beside Bab - .' The Boss
seemed very happy, and he wanted all
to bo joyful. The hour of vindication
was near when U. S. Grant, Jr., stepped
into the court-room and approached
Bait. Young Grant has been out of
the city since Congress adjourned. He
shook hands with Bab, and took the
chair on the other side of him. Then
Levi P. Luckey, who was for many
years private secretary of the President,
eamo in and took a seat. He was per
fectly sober. , ,
Since Levi received the “ bounce” at
tho Executive Mansion, he has drawn
a salary as chief clerk in the Interior
Department, under Uncle Zach Chan-
dlor. A. C. Bradley, Shepherd's brotli-
er-in-law, who figured at St. Louis as
one of Babcock’s counsel, sat near. As
did Mr. Pardon, ex-paymaster of Shep
herd’s Board of Public Works. Behind
this distinguished party were J. Harry
Thompson, the English barber, who
figures at the Columbia lying-in
hospital as chief surgeon—of which
Babcock is tho president—and a host
of other ring-strikers, great and small.
The jury had been out an hour when
Shepherd suggested that all hands
should go out and get a drink. Thomp
son thought a smile would do Bab
cock good service, but the great vindi
cated did not feel like taking any more.
Several of tho smaller fry thoughtlhere
bad been a long time between drinkB,
and went across the street to the “ hole
in the wall”—the favorite tippling
house of the court-house loungers.
_ Babcock was now very nervous, and
his cousel, Fullerton (who, by the way,
fell a good dead short of what was ex
pected of him here,) and Billy Cook,
with tho Boss, kept him in conversa
tion, so that the time would pass away
faster.
Two hours thus passed; the court
room had been lighted up, and prepar
ations, were being make for a long
siege, when word came down from the
jury that they hud agreed. One of the
strongest points of defense before the
judge that this whole safe burglary con
spiracy was a huge joke. But to a
looker-on about this time it appeared
to be anything but a joke. The judge
was sent for and the jury called.
“What say you?” said the clerk; “do
you find the defendants, O. E. Babcock
and Thomas P. Sotnmerville, guilty or
not guilty?”
The foreman, a man named Jett, who
furnishes his scaleB, weights, eto., to
several of the Government departments,
national and local, “truly loil,” an
swered:
“Not gulty.”
As soon as he had the word “not” of
his mouth, there was a shout and cheer
sent up. Shepherd threw his hat up
in tho air, as did several others. By
the time the foreman got out the sec-
and word, a half dozen sprang towards
Babcock to congratulate him. Babcock
improved in looks quickly. The judge,
McArthur, who had been at banquets
with Shepherd, Babcock and the whole
party for the three minutes previous,
tried to put on a little seeming dignity,
and, turning to “the prisoners at the
bar,” said:
“ You are discharged ; marshal, ad
journ tile court.”
The court was adjourned, and then
there was plenty of cheering, and the
safe-burglary crowd, although consid
ered in the minds of the people of tbiB
District, as well as of many throughout
the country, left the court-room.
As Sotnmerville, who did not receive
as many congratulations as Babcock,
was walking out, some one said to
him: , ,
“Well, old man, I am glad (0600 you
alright. It was a huge joke, alter all,
wasn’t it?” • . . „ ,
“It was just such a huge joke,” he
said, “that if any more of them are to
be gotten up, you can count me out. I
don’t want any more of it.”
The banquet given at Boss See.
to-night, to the visiting foreign rifle
teams, turned out to be in reality a re
union and glorification night of the
safe burglars. Babcock was there, fresh
from the prisoner’s box, as was also
Judge McArthur. Dick Harrington, it is
said, sends his regrets. There was more
than one drunken man taken home
from Boss Shepherd’s mansion when
the spree closed.
Th.e jurors who did their duty to
wards Babcock are to be rewarded—u
what way it iB not yet known. But if
I am able to usceriain in the future, 1
will let the readers of the Time* know.
Some say that Wells, tho district attor
ney, will have to step down and out.
This is uncalled for, for certainly >' n
did not strike Babcock as hard a blj
as he should. Indeed, the prosecution
on the whole was very thin, no effort
seemingly being made to bring out ev
idence against Babcock, and no partic
ular desire being noticable to convict
him. But it mattered not what evidence
the jury that “vindicated” him would
hear. The result would he the same.
The trial cost Babcock and the ring at
least $10,00ft,‘and, in their present state
of finances, they will possibly feel that
their so-called joke, op the whole, has
i been a costly ono to them.
Mortuary Statistics of Savan
nah for the Month of Sep-
ten; her.
Mr. S. P. Bell, one the Savannah
unfortunates, who is sojourning in Ma
con, has kindly furnished us with a
copy of a tabular statement of the
interments in tho several Cemeteries of
our afflicted seaport, prepared by Mr.
John McLaughlin, from which wo con
dense the following:
In Laurel Grove there were 40-5 bur
ials, of whiojp 264 wore from yellow
fever, and lol from other causes. In
Cathedral Cemetery, 310 interments;
267 from yellow fever and 43 the re
sult of other diseasos. Evergreen
Cemetery, 14 interments; 13 of which
were yellow fever and 1 otherwise,
Bonaventure Cametery, 6 burials, 4
caused by the epidemic and 1 from
some other malady; making a grand
total of 735 deaths—to-wit, 638 from
tho prevailing sickness, and 196 from
other diseases.
The average mortality was 18 per
diem, and of the total number 273, or
nearley one-third, were children and
youth.
To show how much more subject to
the malady is the while population,
with about equal numbers, only 164, or
about one-flifth of the deaths were ne
groes. And from other source we learn
that of that number, much the larger
portion were half-breeds, or of mixed
blood.
The total deaths from causes outside
of yellow fever reach the abnormal fig
ure ofl96 during the month; which
would show the prevalence of malaria
to a most alarming extent.
The usual mortality during the sum
mer is 17 per week, or 68 for a month
—showing an increase of 128 the pres
ent year in September.
These figures should be laid to heart
by the Savannah authorities, that in
future seasons the drainage of the city
may bo made more thorough, and
proper attention given to sanitary and
hygienic rules.

warm, “you are ruining yourself by writ
ing your sermons and reading them off.
Your congregation cannot become in
terested in your preaching; and if you
were called upon to preach unexpec
ly, unless you could get hold of an old
sermon, you would be completely con
fused.” — -
The young divine used all his elo-
quence, but in vain, to convince the
old gentleman that the written sermon
expressed his own thoughts and feel
ings, and if called upon he could
preach extemporaneously.
“As we are of the same faith,” said
the young minister, “suppose you try
me next Sabbath morning. On as
cending the pulpit you can hand me a
text from any part ol the Bible, and I
will convince you that I can preach
without having looked at the text be
fore I stood up. Likewise, I must be
allowed the same privilege with you,
and see who will make the best of it.”
The idea seemed to delight the old gen
tlemen, and it was immediately agreed
upon.
The following Sabbath, on mountin
the pulpit, his senior brother handei
him a slip of paper, on which was
written: “And the ass opened his mouth
and spake ;” from which he prenohed
a glorious sermon, challenging his de
lighted hearers, and charming his old
friend with his eloquence.
In the afternoon, the young brother
who was sitting below the pulpit, hand
ed his slip. After rising and opening
the Bible, the old man looked sadly
around—“Am I thine ass?” Pausing
a few minutes, he ran his fingers
through hia hair, straightened his col
lar, blow his nose like the last trumpet,
and read aloud, “Am I not thine ass?”
Another pause, in which a deadly si
lence reigned. After reading the third
time “Am I not thine ass ?” he looked
over the pulpit at his friend, and in a
doleful voice said, “ I think I am, broth
er." (
