8 HIS ACCOUNTS TANGLED, THE REASON GIVEN FOR TINEY THOMPSON'S FLIGHT. Be Borrows SIOO,OOO of Which His Partner Knows Nothing-The Firm Unable to Prepare a Statement—No Record Left of His Cash—A Note from Him Discovered in the Safe. There were a number of rumors on the street yesterday regarding the disappear ance of Tiney B. Thompson, and most of them pointed to financial complications as the cause. It was learned that the hooks and accounts left by Thompson were in such a bad condition that no immediate statement could W* obtained front them. The firm of J. J. McDohough & Cos. did business through the Southern Bank, and with that institution it had credit to the extent of *IOO,OOO, the Iwmk lieing amply se cured. Thompson, however, opened an account with the Savannah Bank and Trust Company, of which he was a director, without the knowledge of his partner, and when Mr. McDonough returned to the city he was surprised to find that Thompson had borrowed from that t/auk a large sum, alleged to be more than *IOO,OOO. WORKING IN THE DARK. A* far as can be learned neither the Southern Bank nor the Savannah Bank and Trust Company can state exactly what part of the paper they hold is accomodation pa par, and what part is straight commercial pater —that is, papier drawn against cargoes of lumber, and, therefore, they cannot make a state met. t that will unravel Thompson’s ac counts. Inquiry have hern tent to the various corrosp"den is of the firm asking for statements. Partial statements by tele graph show that some of the paper held by them is accomodation in its character. Complete statements will have to come by mail, and as they have not yet arrived, nothing satisfactory can be stated as to what thev will show. As already stated, the Southern Bank is secured fully, ami the Savannah Bank and Trust Company will not lose anything, even if a large part of the paper it holds is ac commodation, for the loans were negotiated by a member of the firm having authority, and when Mr. McDonough learned of the account Thompson had opened with that bank he assumed all the obligations. NO ACCOUNT keit. What Thompson did with this money cannot be told until the correspondents have been heard from. He was cashier of the firm, but of late he has kept lto accounts of what he has received and what he has paid out. Mr. McDonough therefore will be unnble to state, until he hears from his correspondents, whether Thompson carried away any large amount of money, or whether he used it all in the business. Thompson had *4,900 to his credit with the firm, and it is not even known whether he drew that out, for the books fail to show any record of it. Mr. McDonough does not. it is under stood, entertain the theory that Thompson is insane. He thinks that he either found the business too much for him to manage, or else he neglected it and riermitted the account* to become so mixed up that he could do nothing with them, and becoming very much confused he determined to take the easiest way out of it and leave the city. It is also thought that the opening of the account with the Savannah Bank and Trust Company, of which he was a director, without the knowl edge or consent of his partner, and the probability of being called upon for an explanation, added to his embarrassment and served as one of the masons for his flight. A NOTE FROM HIM DISCOVERED. In looking over the contents of the safe a note from him was found. It is not exactly clear when he wrote it, but the impression is that it was written several days before he left. The theory is that after he wrote it he wavered a little with respect to the course he outlined in it and did not act at once. The place where it was found was one not likely to lie looked into for any thing concerning Thompson, and would not have been founu at all if there had not been a thoixmgh search madfc for )iapers in every nook and corner. In the note he says that he is not appre ciated bv the firm: that Mr. McDonough has not shown him as much kindness as lie thinks he deserves, and that he is not given the credit due him for his work. He adds that he proposed to draw out the * i,900 which stood to his credit, take that as his Interest in the business and leave the city. STILL A MYSTERY. Nothing new concerning hi* whereabout* was developed yesterday, and his friends •re as much in the dark as ever regarding Where be has gone. Those who are in a position to know say that Thompson may have taken a large amount with him or he may, have not only a very small amount— not as much as he bail to his credit. Noth ing can lie known as to what •mount he Umk until the ac counts are straightened out. Everything dejiends upon the amount of accommoda tion paper which he drew and obtained loans upon. If tliat is very large the chances are that he carried considerable cash away with him, or applied it to his personal use. It it is small, the amount carried away is small. Mr. McDonough gave notice yesterday that Thmntisori hail withdrawn from the firm, and that the business would be carried on by himself and Edward Burdett under the old firm name. ENFORCING THE ORDINANCE. Harbor Fees Must be Paid or Execu tions Will be Levied. From present indications it would seem that the city authorities had decided to com yal the payment of the harbor fees from ull vessels, and not to let them run till the mat ter is finally and legally settled. Yesterday one of Messrs. Joseph A. Holierts Cos. s vessels was cnni|<elled to pay the fees demanded, some *f, or an execution would have been summarily levied. The evening previous, it had lieeii inferred that the col lection of these lytx. would be jmstpoued till the tent cases were settled, but yesterday morning the fees were demanded, and when payment was demurred to. an execution iqe on the vessel was made the alternative. A bond was proffered for the amount in ques tion, but ret used. Alao the offer to de|*Mt the sum in a Link, to await the trial of the case as there tva* no other choir* the money waa iiaid under protest. No information could be obtained yesterday as to whether any new tinier on the subject ha<l been issued by the city authorities. 'The general opinion seemed to he that the city proposed to collect the fees of every vessel, making a test case of every one. The out growth of this diversity of opinion will he eagerly watched for, especially as many thousands of dollars arc involved. Sudden Death. James Nolan, aged fiT, a lnndsca|>e gard ener, living on Jones street, between West Broad and Purse atreets, died very suddenly lat night of cholera inorbu*. He wa* ill apparent good health in the morning, but at noon lie wit. taken with oruui|M in hi* bowels, an<l despite the awiiMtiitii* ren dered hy a physician he died al 9 o'clock laid night. He hail lieeii it riwideiit of this city for foily years, and leaves three sons and a daughter, all unmarried. More Artesian Water.

Itams Gathered Here and There by the News ReDOrters. Savannah Ixxige No. '217, I. O. B 8., will bold its regular meeting this evening. I-ASt night wa* a very quiet one in police circles, only four arrests being made up to 12 o’clock. The mortuary report of the last week shows 25 deaths, 0 whites and 10 black- This is a ratio |>er 1,000 population of 11. ff for the whites and 51.0 for the blacks. Messrs. A. R. Salas & Cos. cleared yester day the Italian bark Mud re Rosa, for Bue nos Ayres, with 2,OCX) barrels of rosin, weighing 906,080 pounds, valued at $0,727. and I,ooooases of spirit* turpentine, meas tiring Ih.Oqt) gallons, valued at $3,000, and 16,002 pieces pitch pine lumber, measuring 282,806 feet, valued at $8,812 35.

The convicts of Chatham county, now near Cole Cltv, have written t* • the Presi dent of the W Oman's Christian Temperance Union asking for supplies for a Sunday school and librart they are almut to start. All i>ersons having suitable books, or who are desirous of contributing money for the purchase iif hooks, can send the same to Sirs. R. Webb, at the residence of Rev. R. Webb, liltf South Broad. John Anderson, a big burly negro, was scut t i jail . •. -ifnv by Justice RueaeU. Anderson is chargei with having stolen some tool* from T. D. Blackwell last Jan uary When be was first arraigned he was released on lia;!, hut ou tlie first opportunity he jumped it, leaving his bondsman in the lurch. Friday nigh? he was arrested by the police for beating his wife, and the Mayor, on (sing informed of the facts regarding him, turned him over to the Magistrate's Court yesterday. He wus rather obstreper ous in the office and it took a good hickory cane to bring him to terms. THE BEAULIEU MYSTERY, The Murderer and Hia Victim Seen— The Authorities Act. It was learned yesterday that the children of Mr. Jack Allen, who lives near Beaulieu, had seaa the woman who was murdered at that place, but they were not near her and could not identify her. Dr. Falligant said that on Aug. 8 he and some other gentlemen sailed over the course selected for the yacht raoe which took place on Aug. fi. While going down the river he met the Ida C., which is Capt. Thompson’s sloop, sailing up the river, and there was a man and a woman aboard her. When he returned in the evening he saw the Ida (J. anchored off Beaulieu, but her sails were down and there was no one aboard. That afternoon the Allen children saw a man and woman together on the Beaulieu cause way, and the man carried a musket. A few hours later they saw the same man, but he hail no muaket nor was the woman with him. This forms another link in the remarka ble chain of circumstantial evidence, that seemed to prove almost conclusively that the inurdeml woman was Mrs. Thompson, and the proof soems still to pile up after the discovery that Mrs. Thompson is alive and well. It is probable that, while the meeting of the Ida C., and her desertion after she was anchored is in no wav connected with the crime, the Allen children did see the real murderer and his victim, but who thev are no one can toll. So strong wa* the evidence in favor of the theory that, the dead woman was Mrs. Thompson t hat even after the statement that she had been seen by her cousin was published,there were many people who were unwilling to believe that she was still alive, so the correspondent of the Morning News at Darien was wired and the following reply was received: “Thompson’s wifn is now living on the Ridge. Hhe says that the rumor of her death arise* from her husband’s threats to kill her while in Savannah. Gleason I*. also here.” The County Commissioners, realizing what a terrible thing it is to have so hor rible a crime committed within the county liniitn, and appreciating the necessity of hunting down the murderer and meting out justice to him, held a special meeting yesterday morning at 10 o'clock and adopted the following resolution: IVhkbeas, There is manifest laxity in the pur suit and punishment of criminals and in ferret ing out the perpetrators of crime, Kcsnhvil, That Urn Commissioners of Chat ham county will co-operate with the Solicitor General of this circuit in the detection an 1 prose cution of criminal*, by defraying from the county funds (he reasonable expenses of the county officers, while acting under the direction or approval of the Solicitor General, in pursuing ftnd arresting persons guilty of crimes commit ted In this county. THE JASPER MUTUAL MEETING. No Report Made Concerning the Ex- Treasurer’s Accounts. A regular meeting of Jasper Mutual Loan Association was held on the evening of Sept. 9. Nothing was done concerning its account with the former Treasurer. Maj. Brooks had not liecn able to prepare a re port. He is working on it as he has tho opportunity, and, when finished, it will he thorough and complete. Mr. Kennedy u. giving him fully and candidly all the facts m his possession, and show* a disposi tion to elicit the whole truth of tho matter. The amount of Mr. Kennedy's indebtedness does not seem to be known, and any state ment of it, in advance of a thorough in vestigation of the liooks, is unauthorized and unreliable. He and his friends —and of these be seems to have a great many—-confidently claim that the report, when made, will present a much more favorable showing for him than some of the street minors, which in such matters are usually very much exaggerated. The state ment that his deficiency is known to lie about *32,000 they claim to he entirely un authorized. It should be borne in mind that a large part of Mr. Kennedy’s indebt edness is for money borrowed on ample security, and for arrearages on his stock, as to which it cannot be said there is a de ficiency. The Safe Blower Brought Back. A telegram from Florence, 8. C., stated that Sheriff John T. Hou.ni left that place at 1:30 o’clock this morning with Warner, the burglar, who assisted in blowing open Davis Bros.’ safe. The requisition papers were signed without delay, and Mr. Roiian secured his man at once. CHURCJiSERVICEB.

GENERAL RAILWAY NEWS. Matters of Money and Management About Various Lines. The Clearwater and Tampa Railroad Company (Florida) have organized. D. H. Viswher lias received the contract to build the Atlanta and Hawkinsville rail road from Knoxville to Fort Valley. The Eat Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad Company are receiving bids for Ihe erection or the roundhonse and repair machine shops at Macon, also for the erec tion of depots at several places. The railroad committee of the Legislature have decided to recommend favorably tho Marietta and North Georgia extension bill. There was not one vote against such recom mendation. The bill issub. tantially ns in troduced, the amendments made hy the committee being immaterial. The com mittee also recommended thp pas sage of the following bills: Charter ing the Lexington Terminal railroad; the Thomasville and Tv-Ty railroad: the Chattanooga and Southern railroad; the Macon Terminal railroad; amending the Charter of the Griffin, 1 and Wes tern railroad, and changing the name to the Birmingham and Atlantic Air-Line; amend ing the charter of the Darn n Short Line railroad, and the Brunswick street railroad.

LIFE IN CROWDED CELLS. THE DISCOMFORTS OF LIVING IN JAIL AT PRESENT. Fifty-Five Prisoners Stowed Away in Thirty-Two Celia- The Adjournment of Both the Courts Permits the Jail to Fill Up. Life behind the liars is not a pleasant thing under the most favorable circum stances, but when crowded into *mall, hot cells, where air is not accustomed to meander, when the thermometer is toying with the nineties, jail life is ten fold worse. But add to these many discomforts a cell mate, and they are doubled. All of these very unpleasant things have the occupants of the Chatham county jail to hear while the finishing touches are being put upon the new and handsome structure that is desidued for their abode. The old jail contains forty three cells. Two qf them are for theiußane and nine for female*. One of th**se is not in condition for ooofcpution, leaving eight at the disposal of the women of the county who are inclined to disagree with the law. For males there are thirty-two cells, and . thy are well filled. The jail now contains fifty five male pris oners. The white men are Thomas Cassidy, charged with murder; James Ballentyne, assault with intent to murder; Robert Pier rat, forgery; J. S. Collins, assault and breach of the peace: J. A. Nightingale and Edward Roy, vagrancy. The negroes are Adam Matthew, William Dixon, Ben Young, Alfred Walton, George Gillen, William Henry Baker, Abe Grant, f Jorge Sams and John Colnel, burglary; William Harris and Cliffy Morgan, horse stealing; Morgan Jones, arson; Adam Pride, stab bing; Edward James, State’s witness; Wil liam Jaekfon, attempt to commit a felony; William Jackson, ra|>: Allen Wilson, riot. Mack Halloway, cattle stealing; Thomas Green, accessory to murder; Fred Wright, murder; Paul Campbell, assault with in tent to murder: Amos Denslow, lar ceny after trust; John Wallace, com mon cheat and swindler; Isaac Wesley, assault with intent to rape; Wesley Hamilton, held for the Cnited Htntes for retailing liquor without paying the tax; Joseph Haywood, lunatic; Joe Randolph and Janies Beattie, larceny from the house of over *SO; Charles Harris, Frank Wadlev, George Williams. Edward Wylly, John Rob inson, Grßiitus Hamilton, James Galloway, George Henry, Ben Williams and Ned Coombs, simple larceny; Swinton Gay, vagrancy; John Force, Abram Bacon, Peter Bacon, Bricky Jackion, Peter Weixeheimor and Horace Hicks, assault and battery; J. J. Mini and Henry Miller, disorderly con duct; Peter Creva her, larceny; and Janies Moore and W. E. McKenna, gambling. Tlie detention of so many prisoners re quires that they should be doubled up. Tom Cassidy, of course, has to have a cell to himself, and it is necessary to put forty six of the fifty-five prisoners into twenty three cells. This is by no means com fortable, but as the guilty ones would not wait until court met again and cleared out the jail they will have to grin and bear it. Twenty "eight of these prisoners are awaiting trial before the Su perior Court, one to appear as a witnesi In that court, and one is sentenced to the peni tentiary for life ami is awaiting the decision of the Supreme Court. T wenty are awaiting trial in the City Court, seven are serving sen tences in jail, one is a United States pris oner, two are from Pierce county, one a Bryan county prisoner nnd one a lunatic. The courts will not meet again until No vember, and there are yet six weeks to wait before any of the prisoners can be turned out, so that there is every prospect that all the cells will hold two, and possibly more, occupants before that time. This crowded condition of the jail ha* raised the question whether some provision should not tie made for one of the courts to sit all the year round, but as yet no suggestions have been made on that point. Consumption, Wasting Diseases, And general debility. Doctors disagree a* to the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and Hy pophnepkites; the one supplying strength and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and acting as a tonic to the digestive and entire system. But in Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil with Hypophosphites the two are combined, and the effect is wonderful. Thousands who have derived no permanent benefit from other preparations have been cured by this. Scott’s Emul sion is perfectly palatable and is easily di gested by those who cannot tolerate plain Cod Liver Oil. Make the Dollars Last. In these days of close figuring every ef fort is made to make a dollar go as far as possible. In tlie households of thi* city the grocery bill is carefully looked after, as it is the big output in every family. To live well, and vet keep the cost within bounds, is the problem, and its solution can be helped by a visit to the family grocery of Mr. D. fi. Lester, 91 Whitaker stroqf. Mr. Lester carries an immense stock of first class goods, and he is tlie pioneer in low prices. Buviug for spot cash and selling on close margins, he saves the consumer money, ami this is the secret of his crowded store and extensive business. Those inter ested in this living subject should consult Sir. Lester’s announcements In the adver tising columns of the Morning News, where they will regularly appear, and keep posted regarding family supplies and their prices. Not Easy to Accomplish. To supply the wants of farmers, house keepers, merchants, builders, etc., Lovell A, Lattimore have one of the most complete of stocks. Every effort is made to furnish always such a supply as is needed by them, and to keep up with the wants of so varied a trade an enormous assortment and quan tity of goods is required. Messrs.

C., Sept. 10.—Memphis was again beaten this afternoon, although it took twelve innings to do it. The umpir ing toward the last was decidedly against the visitors, but they won the respect of the audience by playing ball and not su Iking as they did yesterday, when they really had nothing to complain of. As soon as the game closed the Charleston directors decided to change umpires.

New Orleans, Sept. 10.—It was no use, New Orleans couldn't win to-day. No mat ter how hard the hatters hit the ball it went right into the hands of some Birmingham fielder. The latter played a fine game, and Masran made the star catch of the season, catching a fly with oue hand with his back against the right Held fence. Kelly pitched a good game, and New Orleans got men on third several times hut could not bat them in. Avdelotte also pitched a good game, and was well supported. New Orleans made four double plays and did other nice field work, but Powell’s arm was out of gear.and his successive failures to throw accurately to first were what lost the game. The game was lifeless and was witnessed by a small crowd. Stallings was hurt during the game and Jack Hayes took his place.
