MERCFRY_CREEPING UP.
SIGNAL OBSERVERS TAKING
HOURLY OBSERVATIONS.
The Signal Bureau and the New York
“World’s" Balloon Expedition—Yes
terday the Hottest Day Savannah
Has Experienced in Many Years—
Mercury Up to Ninety-Six Degrees.
The oliservers at the signal station hail a
busy day of it yesterday. Observations
were taken hourly from 7 o’clock in the
morning until 11 o’clock last night, and will
lie ('ontinued to-dav and to-morrow for the
purpose of comparison with observations
taken by Prof. Haven, who will accompany
the New York World balloon expedition,
which is expected to start from St. Louis to
day.
WATCHING THE WEATHER.
Chief Signal Officer Greelv issued orders
several days ago to observers at the princi
pal stations in the service to report hourly
during the flight of the expedition the gen
eral character of the weather, the same as
reported at all regular observa
tions. The observers at the Savan
nah station were kept almost constantly
at the instruments yesterday and the seven
teen observations that were taken necessi
tated a large amount of clerical w ork. The
comparisons to he made with the obser
vations taken by Prof. llazrii are expected
to afford a great deal of valuable informa
tion to the Signal Bureau.
MERCURY AT HIGH TIDE.
Savannah was, with two exceptions, Au
gusta and Charleston, the hottest place in
the United States yesterday. The mean
temperature of the day, according to the
Signal Bureau reports, was K 4”, the highest
recorded here in many years. The maximum
temperature was 96". This is one degree be
low the maximum on Thursday, but the
mean temperature for Thursday was only
81°. four degrees below that of yesterday.
The heat during the middle of the day
was intense, and from noon until 3 o’clock
everybody who was compelled to be on the
streets sought the shady side.
A SODA WATER BOOM,
There was a regular boom at the soda
water stands, and everybody who had a
thermometer kept a close watch on it to see
if the mercury crowded the top off.
When the 7 o’clock observation was taken
at the signal station mercury was at the 78*
mark. An hour later it had gone up to 81
At 9 o’clock it was 85, at 10 it was
89, and at 11 it had just passed 90.
At noon it was close to 93, and before 1
o'clock it was up to 96. This was the high
est it went during the day. The 1 o’clock
abservation read 94. At 3 o’clock it
had dropped to 93, but fit 3
It went up again to nearly 94’. At that
point it began falling, and when the last
observation was taken last night it hail got
down to 80”.
The only station in the signal service that
reported any higher temperature was Au
gusta, which reported 99’. Charleston re
ported 97°, Jacksonville, Fla., 93", Mont
gomery, Ala., 93* and Atlanta 90”. The
Sot section seemed to be in Georgia and
South Carolina.
NO SIGNS OF A LET UP.
Avery low barometer area extends over
both States indicating a bontinuance of the
hot spell. The weather north, east, west
and even south of here is cooler. The pres
ent month will go on record as the
hottest m several years. Yester
day’s temperature was nearly 4°
higher than was recorded any time last
year or the year before. The Observer on
duty last night said that there is no prospect
of a let up. The early part of the night was
intensely warm, but before midnight a
thunder stortn passed over the city, cooling
the atmosphere several degrees.
FULL REPORTS RESUMED.
The signal bureau until now has been send
ing out only partial reports, and the Savan
nah station has not had the information
which it had lief ore the full reports were cut
off in March by reason of Congress' failure
to pass the deficiency bill. Yesterday, how
ever, the full reports were resumed. They
would have been sent out anyway on July
1, when the regular appropriation for the
maintainance or the signal service becomes
available, but the department has begun
sending them two weeks earlier than was
expected. This will render the service
much more valuable by reason of the wide
area from which the reports are received.
DANIEL H. BALDWIN DEAD.
Fatally Stricken With Paralysis at
His Home in New York.
A special dispatch to the Morning News
from New York announced the death of
Captain Daniel H. Baldwin, at his residence
in that city, last night, from paralysis.
Capt. Baldwin was at one time a promi
nent merchant of this city, but for the
last twenty years has been a resident of
New York. He was a Northern man by
•birth, but came to Savannah when quite
young. Be was for several years a clerk
in the house of Brigham & Kelly, and after
ward became a member of the firm, when
its style was changed to Brigham, Kelly &
Cos. and afterward to Brigham, Baldwin &
Cos. The firm did a large shipping and com
mission business, and its members all
acquired handsome fortunes.
At the breaking out of the war Capt.
Baldwin entered the army as a member of
the Chatham Artillery, and was soon after
promoted to the commissary department
with the rank of captain. Shortly after
the close of the war he changed his residence
to New York, where he has since resided.
He was largely interested in the fertilizer
business in this city and at Port Royal,
tfcough recently those interests have been
managed by his son, Mr. George J. Baldwin,
a prominent merchant here.
The deceased was about 64 years of age,
and up to a year or so ago, when he had his
first paralytic stroke, was very young in
appearance, and looked as though he hail
still a long life before him.
Mr. George J. Baldwin was with bis
father when he died.
CUBA’S SUGAR CANE SAFE.
No Clue to the Rumored Filibustering
Expedition.
The foray which the K|ianish authorities
Bay that they have reason to Ixslieve is being
organized in the vicinity of Savannah
against Cuba is as much of a mystery as it
■*** when the first report of its organization
was received here. The customs authorities
have failed to discover any suspicious ves
sels in port, and the general impression is
that the whole thiug is a hoax.
Collector Wheaton received instructions
yesterday from the deiiartment at Washing
ton to keep a cloee lookout here and along
the coast, and if any vessel suspected of l>e
ing fitted out for a hostile expedition is dis
covered to arrest every one con
nected with it. The revenue cutter
Boutwell is cruising to the southward
among the hays and inlets which intersect
the coast, and a strict watch is also kept in
the harbor.
The customs officials arc satisfied tliat the
rumor is without any foundation, as not the
first clue to any meeting which might lie
lor the purpose of carrying out the plan of
she expedition can be obtained.

Several persons report that at ten minutes
to two o’clock yesterday afternoon there
vvas quite a perceptible fall of snow in this
city. It was a pretty hot day for snow.

end expressed the opinion that the judg
ment day was at liana.
A well known merchant a day or two ago
said to the sub-sexton of the Independent
Presbyterian Church, who was boasting
that it was not much of a feat to climb to
the top of the steeple of the church, that he
would give him $5 if he would climb to the
basket just beneath the gilded glolw and
stand lip in it. He did not, expect his offer
•would be accepted, but before tho offer
could be recalled the colored man was on
his upward journey. He not only stood up
in the basket, hut he mounted the gilded
globe. He got his $5, and thought the
money easily won. He is waiting for some
body else to offer him $5 to repeat the per
formance.
It might be well for people to be a little
careful about using artesian water heated in
copper kettles or other copper vessels. There
is a little sulphur in the artesian water, and
there is a possibility of it uniting with the
copper and forming a poisonous compound.
Several persons on a plantation near tho
city where there is an artesian well, were
made sick from drinking coffee that was
made from artesian water boiled in a cop
per kettle. The water, however, was much
more strongly impregnated with sulphur
than water from the artesian wells in this
city. The sulphur in the Savailnnh arte
sian water is not noticeable. Still it might
lie well to avoid heating it in copper kettles
for cooking purposes. The taint of sulphur
is no objection to the artesian water. The
thing to do is to avoid the old-time copper
kettle.
A TALENTED EDITOR.
A Delightful Evening Spent With Mr.
A. A. Ellenwood.
A number of ladies and gentlemen gath
ered at the hospitable home of Capt. George
W. Haslam last night to enjoy the reading
of a few selected pieces by Mr. A. A. Ellen
wood, editor and proprietor of the Black
shear Georgian. Mr. Ellenwood is spend
ing a few days in the city with friends, and
he yielded to the earnest solicitation of
Mr. William Clifton, and prepared
for an evening’s private entertain
ment. When the guests were assembled
Mr. Ellenwood began his reading with
“Old Si and His’Possum Hunt.” He kept
his hearei-s laughing heartily at his striking
imitation of the famous old Georgia darkey.
His next piece was “Hezekiah Stubbius’
Oration.” That was, indeed, one of the
most humorous efforts to which an audi
ence has ever listened. Mr. Ellenwood's
long residence in the country has
fitted him admirably for the impersonation
of the part of a Georgia Cracker, and his
ability in this line might well lie envied by
one of less modest pretensions. His most
effective piece, however, was "The Bells,"
by Edgar Allen Poe. In this he had the
needed opportunity of displaying the touch
ing effects that he throws into his well
modulated voice.
Mr. Ellenwood was equally effective in
“The Raven,” when he blended together in
simple but beautiful harmony the deep
shadow and brilliant light of that affecting
poem. Nor were his efforts in “Curfew
shall Not Ring To-night" less meriting of ap
probation, but he burst forth in his flood of
good humor when he read "The Frenchman
and the Flea Powder," "That Hired Girl,”
“The Smack in School,” “Mrs. Caudle’s
Umbrella Lecture,” “Popping the Ques
tion,” “Courting in the Country,” and “The
Charcoal Man." and his ever willing hearers
would have detained him long at his books
ha/1 he not stopped to give them an exhibi
tion of his {lowers as a phrenologist. He ex
amined the head of a young lady present,
and so accurately did he read her character,
discover her abilities and tell her disposition
that those present were loath to believe Mr.
Clifton had not informed him concerning
them until he assured them that they were
learned through the medium of that science
of which he is a master.
Death of an Old Savannahian.
Martin Jennings was an old carpenter well

Railroad Building in Georgia.
Mr. James L. Simmons, Vico President of
the Savannah, Dublin and Western Short
line railroad, has constructed 200 miles of
railroad in Kansas within the post year,and
expects to build 300 miles more within the
next year. He says that Georgia presents
better inducements for building railroads
than the far West, for the reason that
in that part of the coun
try not only has the railroad
to be built, but the towns and cities have
also to be laid out and the population
brought to them. In Georgia these pre
requisites to a paying railroad are always at
band, and all that is necessary is to con
struct the railroad. Mr. Simmons, in ad
dition to his Georgia enterprise and Mutt in
Kansas, is engaged in the Cape Cod canal

CONGRESS IN THE FALL
MR. NORWOOD THINKB AN EXTRA
SESSION IMPROBABLE.
Ho Hopes for Harmony Upon the Tariff
Question—Cleveland's Chances for a
Second Term His Popularity in the
West -What the President Said to
Mayor Lester.
Hon. T. M. Norwood has recently re
turned from Washington. While there he
met a number of the members of the House,
and between them the matter of the extra
session of Congress and Cleveland’s chances
for a second term were discussed in an in
formal way. Mr. Norwood was asked yes
terday if he thought there would be an extra
session, and he replied that he did not think
it would he called. The members are not
much in favor of it, and he does not think
it will be urged upon the President.
“One good result of it would be,” he con
tinued, “that we would not have to stay in
Washington during the summer if the busi
ness of Congress was not disposed of during
the regular session. It is extremely hot
there, and when Congress held over until
August the members suffered a great deal.”
“Do you think that the Democratic party
will be harmonized on the tariff question in
caucus.”
“That is hard to say. The whole thing
lies with Mr. Randall. Unless he gives
up his internal revenue plan, there is
little chance for it. The Democratic
side of the House is not now in the condition
it was in the last Congress. The majority
lias been reduced to twelve, and if Randali
keeps his followers out the Democrats will
not be able to carry the reduction in the
tariff. In the Forty-ninth Congress they
could let Randall and his friends
go and still have a majority, but
it will not be so in the
Fiftieth, for it will not take many disaffected
Democrats to give the Republicans control
of the House. I cannot foretell what will
happen in caucus, but I certainly hope that
some policy upon which the party will be
united will be adopted.”
“What do you think of Mr. Cleveland’s
chances for a second term?”
“They are better now than ever. While
I was in Washington I met a prominent
Western member who said that the Presi
dent has made many friends in the IVest by
his course in the Guilford Miller land grant
case. The dependent pension veto was not
well received "in the West but the Miller
case has won for him at least as many
friends as he lost by the veto. ”
“Does Mr. Cleveland want the nomina
tion i”
“No: I do not think he does. I believe
that he would prefer to retire after his term
has expired, but if ihe party wants him to
accept he will certainly no so. He will con
sent to his renoi i lination, if the leaders
think it will more firmly establish the party
in power, hut that will be his only reason.”
“Have you ever heard any expression
from him that leads you to believe he would
like to retire.”
“Yes. When Mayor Lester called upon the
President some time ago we talked over
public matters for awhile, and he then
turned to Mr. Lester and said: ‘So you are
Mayor of Savannah ‘Yes,’ replied Mayor
Lester. ‘Ah, I wish 1 was back there!’ said
the President, referring to his term as
Mayor of Buffalo. Yes, he will undoubted
ly accept the nomination if it is tendered,
but I do not think he wants it.”

SAVED FROM DEATH.
A Strange Case of Suspended Anima
tion.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
A rather remarkable case of suspended
animation occurred yesterday. Crus
Schnielzer, a young man about 3d years of
age, lives with his parents, at No. 5 Taft
street. His father is at the head of an ice
chest manufactory on Walnut street, near
the canal. Gus, with his brothers, is em
ployed at the establishment. Recently he
has been too convivially* inclined, and this
dissipation, in connection with a weak sys
tem, placed him on the sick list, although
he refused to go to bed, and persisted in
continuing his usual daily labor. Yester
terday morning he was
TAKEN SERIOUSLY ILL
with a hemorrhage of the lungs. He bled
freely and the family became alarmed. A
doctor was summoned and Schmelzer given
the usual remedies. He became better, and
notwithstanding the objections and entreat
ies of his relatives, refused to stay at home.
He went to tin* shop and began to work as
if nothing was the matter. About 3:80
o’clock he was seized with a fearful hemor
rhage and dropped to the floor in an ex
hausted and fainting condition. Blood
spurted from his nose and mouth, and it
was evident that unless he soon received
medical attention he would die. Patrol No.
1 was called and started with the man for
his home. While passing the Ann street
entrance of the City Hospital the officers in
the wagon became alarmed at
THE INVALID’S CONDITION.
He had fainted and seemed almost inani
mate. Fearful that he would die in the
wagon the officers drew up to the hospital
receiving station and Schmelzer was taken
in. He was place#on one of the movable
black couches prepared for such cases. Dr.
Hussey was at once called and by the time
he arrived —only two or three minutes had
expired—the man’s life seemed to have
passed away.
The body was subjected to the usual
simple tests, but no signs of life could be
detected. The heart and pulse had ceased
to beat, and Dr. Hussey pronounced the
man dead. In the meantime members of
the family had been summoned, and the
grief of the father and sisters, who had
Hurried to the hospital,
IVAS HEART-BREAKING.
Dr. Hussey, in order to avoid any possible
mistake, suggested that the body be allowed
to stay at the hospital for a few hours, so
that, if there were any signs of returning
life, there was medical assistance immedi
ately at hand. The father, however, had
given up all hope, and insisted that tbe re
mains should be removed to the young man’s
recent home.
The body was tenderly carried to the
house, No. 5 Taft street. Among those who
had been summoned to the death-bed was
an older brother. He had graduated at one
of the local medical colleges himself, and
was experienced in such matters. There was
a forlorn hope that life was not extinct.
The brother went to work, and after some
time was overjoy'd to find faint
SIGNS OF RETURNING VITALITY.
He hurriedly ran for Dr. Meade, whom he
fortunately found at home, and then called
Dr. Fishburn. The two experienced physi
cians labored with the almost inanimate
body. After awhile, through artificial
means, respiration was resumed. Ether was
administered, and soon the intensely inter
ested group around the bedside were satisfied
to see the eyes slowly open. They remained
fixed, however, and gave no sign of recog
nizing those about the. couch. The pulse
beats came very faint, but could be readily
distinguished and then grow faster and
more perceptible.
The doctors continued in attendance until
it was safe to leave the patient in the hands
of his relatives, who were instructed how to
continue the treatment. Last evening young
Schmelzer was gradually improving, but
the physicians were still very doubtful
about his ultimate recovery. He had suf
fered the loss of a great deal of blood, and
was consequently very weak.
IT WAS A QUESTION
as to whether he had sufficient strength to
sustain the vital spark, or whether another
sudden hemorrhage would shatter all hopes
of saving his life. Young Schmelzer is a
very popular young, unmarried man. The
timely efforts of his brother no doubt saved
him from death yesterday. late last eveh
ing he was still living, but had not shown
that he recognized any of his surroundings.
\Y 7 hile the doctors were doing their best
with the feeble patient the undertaker, with
his ice-box ready for the corpse, drove up
to the door. He was told that his services
were not then needed, but to hold himself in
readiness for further orders.
THE CORONER’S CALL.
Dr. Rendigs had been notified in the after
noon of Sclimelzer’s supposed death, and
called at the family residence about 9 o’clock
last evening. He was informed that the
young man was still alive. There was con
siderable ' disinclination shown relative to
giving the Coroner information, and bis sus
picions were mildly aroused. From other
sources he learned sufficient to lead him to
the determination to make a formal official
visit to the house this morning, when he will
satisfy himself conclusively whether young
Schmelzer is
ALIVE OR DEAD.
The case became more mysterious than
ever last evening. Drs. Schwagmeyer and
Helfferich were called into consultation,
ami, with Dm Fishburn and Meade, made
a critical examination of the body. Dr.
Fishburn expressed the opiniqn that deth
had ensued at (5:25 p. m. There was still
considerable animal warmth, and Dr. Fish
burn admitted that possibly he felt a slight
pulsation. The other physicians inclined to
the belief that life still remained in the
body.
In order to settle the difficult problem as
to whether Schmelzer is alive or dead it was
decided to have another consultation at 9
o’clock this morning, when the most critical
tests will be applied. There was no doubt
that Schmelzer revived yesterday afternoon
after ho had been pronounced dead at the
hospital. Whatever the result of this morn
ing s consultation of the physicians in the
case Coroner Rendigs will make an investi
gation on his own account, and determine
whether the matter comes within his juris
diction. As the attending physicians are
divided on the question as to whether
Schmelzer still lives or expired last evening,
the Coroner proposes to satisfy himself.
