j.OtVEII INTEREST "MAY LEAD
|I\NK DEPOSITORS TO INVEST.
Bunk* Etpected to Reduce
the Bute to :t Per Cent, on Jan. 1.
The Trend of Interest Is Down
ward, and They Cannot Use Sav
ina* nt a Prolit and Pay More —
Would Prefer That Larue Deposit
or* Put Their Savings In Property
or Securities and So Stimulate
Business.
Jnn. 1 will probably see a reduction In
t ,e rate of Interest paid by Savannah sav
n us banks to 3 per cent. At present the
me is 3Va and 4 per cent. An agreement
is expected under which all of these in
stitutions will pay the same rate and that
lower than the interest allowed up to this
lime.
liven at 3 per cent., it Is said, the Sa
i.ninahians fortunate enough to have
finds on deposit will be getting one-half
to l per cent, more than is now being paid
t.v many of the leading savings funds of
tiie North. But that will be small conso
]a:ion to the depositors, many of whom
will probably feel that the proposed In
terest is a rather small return on their
money.
According to those interested in the sav
ings banks it has been evident for some
time that a reduction would have to be
made on the rate of interest allowed to
depositors. It has become almost impossi
ble to use to advantage and
pay such a rate of interest as in the past,
livery where the trend of Interest has been
downward. Up to the last year or two it
has been possible to pay 4 per cent., and
stiil derive a reasonable profit from the
tfse of the deposits. But that time has
passed and as a plain matter of business
U has become necessary to take the step
proposed.
"We have frequently urgedi par ties hav
ing large deposits in our savings depart
ment to take out their money and other
wise invest it,” was the statement that
two bank officers made in discussing the
matter. "We have pointed out to them that
It was an error of judgment on their part
not to put it in good securities or in real
estate, but as long as the rate of interest
was comparatively high they declined to
act on the advice. The probable effect of
the decrease in the rate will be to lead
to withdrawals and investments in this
way. This is certainly a desirable result,
a< its tendency will be to stimulate busi
ness. Whether they do this or not, though,
the banks can hardly afford any longer to
pay the present interest.”
"Parties who have two or three thousand
dollars in savings banks,” said another ot
ticer, “would certainly find it to their
financial advantage to put it in real estate,
from which, if properly managed they
should get at least a net income of five
per cent. The idea of savings banks is not
for persons to lot large sums of money ac
cumulate in them. Asa rule they will not
take on deposit more than a certain
atnounl, say $5,000, from one individual de
positor, and frequently smaller rates of in
terest are paid as the amount, on deposit
grows larger. These institutions are in
tended to encourage the savings habit in
liersons, to get them to put aside small
amounts until they have an aggregate suf
ficient to utilize in the purchase of a home
or other good Investment. If the amount
that any one person is allowed to hpve on
ill posit and draw interest on were reduced
ii would probably have a good effect in
f'omng investments outside. Real estate is
safe and I anticipate that there will be
heavier investments in it than in securi
ties as most persons having savings on de
posit do not know much about stocks and
bonds and are averse to putting their
money in them.”
RUMORS OF MOVING THOOFS.
IlailrufMl* Talking' of Embarkation
nt Miami and Tampa.
Railroad men have rumors of an early
movement of troops. It is whispered that
the war department contemplates sending
a number of regiments from Savannah to
Port Tampa and Miami to be embarked
for Cuba. It Is said the idea is that a more
rapid movement to the island can thus
be secured.
What there may be in this is not known,
but it is admitted that the matter has been
taken up by the railroads and that they
are looking about io see if there is any
business to come to them. The report
reached the railroads from Washington.
An effort was made to ascertain its correct
ness by the aid of agents at Washington,
and the news heard through them was
taken to indicate that there is some basis
for the report.
A few days ago one of the leading of
ficials of one of the North and South lines,
in discussing the military situation, said
that }ie had been spoken to upon the ques
tion of the transportation of three regi
ments from Savannah to Port Tampa.
Nothing further has been heard of it,
however, and the government officials pro
fess ignorance of any such movement
being 'contemplated. It is quite possible
that there are no grounds for the state
ments of the departure of any of the Sev
enth Corps from any other port than Sa
vannah. The department recognizes the
advantages and facilities here, and is not
likely to give them up for the more mea
ger facilities of other ports.
ENTERTAINED ARMY BOYS.
l.iixt Night'* Meeting at fid Neb. anil
2nd Ln. Y. M. C. A. Tent.
I.ast night was a night with the boys of
the Third Nebraska and Second Louisiana
Begiments that will long be remembered.
At 6 o’clock the boys began to gather in
the two large Y. M. C. A. tents, and kept
coming until Secretary A. Howell had all
he could do to paedt them in. Hon. E. H.
Smith of Boston, soon put In his appear
ance, and Mr. Howell introduced him to
the boys. He was greeted with cheers. For
an hour Mr. Smith entertained his au
dience. The evening was one of great en
joyment. While the tent was well filled,
Ren. Harrison appeared and stepping to
the platform viewed the thronged and
backed tents with great delight. His pres
■ nee was one of pleasure to Secretary
Howell. It was Gen. Harrison's first visit
io the Third Nebraska Y. M. C. A. head
quarters.
"tiI.DIER Tl ItNED OVER TO POLICE.
Patrick Murphy Discharged From

From the United States Army Patrick
Murphy goes to the police. He quarreled
and fought with another teamster, which
accounts for his arrest by the military
authorities. At first he was lodged in the
guard house, but was later turned over to
the police. t
Murphy's case was iubnedSover ta MaJ.

AN' IMPORTANT TEST.
4 our Life May Be Prolonged by Ap
plying It.
Ho you realize the importance of the
kidneys and bladder; when diseased
they make a lot of trouble—tear down
the system, and create gravel (stone in
the bladder). Instruments have to be
used to push back the sandy matter, and
sometimes death is the sequel. Women
often suffer from so-called "female weak
ness” when their trouble really lies with
the kidneys and bladder. Suppose you
try this test:
Put in a bottle or tumbler some urine.
Let it stand twenty-four hours. If there
is a sediment on the bottom your kid
neys require immediate attention. Are
you obliged to urinate often, especially
during (he night? Does your urine stain
the linen? Do you have burning, scald
ing pain in passing it? Do you have pain
across the back? If so, your bladder and
kidneys are diseased.
There I* Danger in Delay.
There is a certain cure for you if you
act promptly. The greatest of all kidney
medicines is Dr. David Kennedy’s BaVor
ite Remedy. It has cured the most dis
tressing cases, some of which were aban
doned by physicians.
It corrects the bad effects of beer or
whisky, and acts gently yet promptly on
the kidneys, bladder, liver and bowels
and cures quickly. It is the prescription
of David Kennedy, M. D., of Rondout, N.
Y., who for thirty years has ehjoyed an
enviable reputation as a practitioner of
medicine and surgery.
You may have a sample bottie of
Favorite Remedy with a pamphlet of
valuable medical advice sent free by mail
postpaid, by sending your address to the
Dr. David Kennedy Corporation, Rond
out, N. Y., and mentioning the Morning
News.
Favorite Remedy is sold for one dollar
a bottie at ali drug stores. It is well worth
many times its price. Remember the
sample costs you nothing. The proprie
tors of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of this liberal offer.

FATTENED FOR CREMATORY.
Farmer's Porker Fell Into the Hand*
of the Sanitary Authorities.
Policeman Lange turned a farmer over
to the health authorities yesterday for
offering to sell a hog which was in an
unsound condition. The farmer was first
taken to the police barracks, where the
officer was dirjeted to take him to the city
exchange. The rural dealer was there
turned over to Meat Inspector Weil.
It, did not take Inspector Weil long to
decide what to do. The pig was not in
a wholesome condition, and the inspector
applied the law to the case by condemning
it. Getting on the wagon with the farmer,
Weil directed him to drive to the crema
tory. There the “gintleman that was to
pay the rint,” was east into outer dark
ness. 'To the farmer this appeared to be
a peculiar proceeding. Why he should fat
ten hogs for Savannah’s crematory is
something he could not thoroughly com
prehend, and the probability is he will re
member the performance for a long time.
The police and sanitary inspectors are al
ways on the alert for spoiled meat, and it
is at their 9n risk that dealers attempt
to dispose of it.
On account of the circumstances of the
case the farmer was not placed on the
police docket, and it is for this the officers
say, he should congratulate himself.
CITY NOT URGING ITS PASSAGE.
11)11 to Tax Collinsville Not Being
Pu*lii'ii by tlie Aldermen.
The ctiy will probably not endeavor to
have the legislature pass the bill allow
ing the collection of municipal taxes in
Collinsville. It is not understood any of
the city officials will go to Atlanta to un
do what the delegation that left Friday
night has done, and it seems no additional
facts will be offered in support of the
measure. *
The assertion that the most important
streets in Collinsville are still blocked, is
not denied by a number of aldermen. Talks
with members of the board show that
they will not be surprised if the measure
is defeated.
It is urged Collinsville is greatly bene
fitted by the improvements the city has
extended into it, however, and that the
people out there should be willing to pay
for the service they are receiving. But it
is predicted there will have to be a differ
ent condition before that region is taxed.
“Until the plan of the city is bona fide
extended into it,” Is a proviso the people
out there won’t say amen to tilt Gabriel
comes.
SHOT IN THE SHOULDER.
Gun Accidentally Discharged W hile
Two Negroe* Were Hunting.
Evans Ford, colored, was taken to the
Georgia Infirmary yesterday in a mangled
condition. He had been shot in the left
shoulder by Billy Mack, also colored, with
whom he was hunting in Carolina at the
time. From the accounts given the shoot
ing was accidental.
After the accident, Mack gave all possi
ble assistance in getting the wounded man
to the city. His story of the shooting was
that thq gun he carried discharged acci
dentally, and the first he knew of the re
sult was when Ford cried out that he had
■ been shot. The load took effect in the
left shoulder, and the flesh was consider
ably lacerated as a result. He bled a great
deal.
Mack surrendered himself to the officers.
He was lodged in the police barracks un
til the result of Ford's wounds are known.

Preferred Going to the Gang to De
serting III* Partner.
Judge Norwood held a rush matinee In
the City Court yesterday that was a cork
er. Friday is criminal day in the City
Court and there is usually a large num
ber of petty cases to be disposed of. Yes
terday was a record breaker, however.
There were about forty cases before the
court, and they were handled with a dis
patch that must have made the eyes of
some of the victims bulged.
About a dozen negroes received sen
tences for larceny from the house, and
other petty crimes varying from $5 to $25
fine with the alternatives of imprisonment
of from six to twelve months. Several
were lucky enough to be discharged as
not guilty or not having been proven eo,
and a few cases were nolle prossed.
A feature of the session was the number
of white vagrants before his honor, the
fruitage of several recent hauls by the po
lice. They were of ali ages and grades
of disreputableness, and most of them
had hard luck stories to tell. Several
claimed that they had come here to en
list and had not been able to do so. Oth
ers said that they were looking for work.
Seven or eight who bore the ear marks
of the professional hobo were sentenced to
pay a fine of $5 or spend three months
each on the gang. None of them had the
price.
A rather interesting story developed in
connection with these cases. Among the
lot charged with vagrancy were two youpg
fellows, who gave their names as Bam
Flukes and Gus Miller, 18 and 20 years of
age respectively. They said that their
homOs were tn Philadelphia and that they
had come to Savannah to enlist, supposing
that it would be an easy matter to do so.
They had found that this was not the case
and were without the means to return
home. Judge Norwood let the younger boy
go, but sentenced Miller the old one to pay
a fine or go to the chain-gang.
In the afternoon young Flukes secured
an audience with Judge Norwood. He tokl
the judge that he was very grateful to
him for his kindness in not imposing a
sentence upon him, but that he could not
desert his oartner.
“Gus and I were raised together, have
played together and ate and slept together
he said and I don't want to leave him now.
If you can’t let Gus loose I would like for
you to send me out to the gang, too. I had
rather spend three months on the gang
than to leave him.”
Judge Norwood appreciated the. young
fellow's manliness In desiring to stick by
his chum even if he had to go to the gang
to do so and the result of the appeal was
that the sentence against Miller was sus
pended and he was released.
Among the other cases disposed of by
Judge Norwood were the following:
Cullen Crawford, larceny from the house,
$lO or six months.
John Jones, larceny from the house, $lO
or six months.
Andrew Sampson, assault and battery,
S2O or three months.
Dora Gaillard, escaped convict, twelve
months in addition to former sentence.
Henry Bulwinkle, larceny from the
house, $lO and costs or six months.
Frank Baker and Willie Jackson, lar
ceny from the house, $lO and costs or
twelve months each.
James Johnson, vagrancy, $5 and costs
or six months.
Charlie Green, larceny from the house,
S2O or six months.
John Austin, larceny from the house, $lO
and costs or twelve months.
Larceny from the house, Anderson San
ders, $5 or six months; Thomas McCul
lough, $25 or twelve months.
Henry Walker, cheating and swindling,
$lO or six months.
MTNTOSH SUPERIOR COURT.
Mat Andrew* Acquitted of the
Charge of Harder.
Solicitor General Osborne returned yes
terday from Mclntosh Superior Court. The
only criminal ease of importance disposed
of was that of Wat Andrews, charged with
the killing ol Wait Harris. Both were ne
gro raft hands and were tn a drunken
crowd on a train. The evident* showed
that Harris assaulted Andrews with an ax,
but the latter was too quick lor his assail
ant, and got in his work first. Andrews
was acquitted.
Considerable criminal business was pass
ed over in order that the court might de
vote Itself to the civil business before it.
The court will probably be tn session up
tp and including to-day. which will prevent
Judge Falllgant from returning to the city
before to-morrow.
This is the last term of Mclntosh court
which will be attended by Judge Falllgant
and Solicitor General Osborne in their of
ficial capacity a* the Judge and soHcltor
general of the new Atlantic circuit will
assume charge of the work after the ex
piration of Uus yeor.
TEXAS AND ILLINOIS TO TACKLE.
Regiment* Will Line Up on Hie Bol
ton Street Gridiron To-ilny.
The game of foot ball this afternoon be
tween the teams of the First Texas and the
B’ourth Illinois Regiments will be called
at 3 o’clock. Considerable interest is mani
fested in the game, and it is thought there
vrill lie a good attendance. The clean ex
hibition of foot ball that was given on
Thanksgiving day by the Texas und lowa
teams pleased the lovers of the sport, and
they will go to the park expecting to see
another such game as the teams showed
them when they played to a standstill.
The exhibition drill of the zouave com
pany of the First Texas from San Antonio
will not begin until after the game. This
drill is to be in the park extension, and an
arrangement has been made to have it
commence after the ball game has been
won or lost by the Texans. Those desiring
to make an afternoon of it and to see the
ball game and also the drill will find the
arrangement very satisfactory..,.
No charge wm made tor- tadies ttrsit
in the grandstand. Gentlemen, however,
will have to pay for their seats unless they
can content themselves with the bleachers.
The prices of admission will be the same
as on Thanksgiving day, that is, 25 cent3
for enlisted men and 50 cents for civilians
and officers.
At the last game there was considerable
wrangling on account of it being difficult to
determine the exact location of points on
the field. This difficulty has now been re
moved l.y Ihe laying off of the entire field
in five-yard iines.These will enable specta
tors to follow the game With much greater
satisfaction and will mean an easier task
for Hie umpire, the referee and the players.
Mr. J. I. Killorin will be referee and Mr.
Gordon Saussy will be umpire.
A company of the provost guard will be
on hand to maintain order during the
game. The band of each regirfient will also
be at the park to assist in rooting for its
team and to afford additional entertain
ment to that of the game.
FUNERAL OF A WEALTHY CUBAN.
Mr. Adolfo Dulioi* I,aid to He*t In
Bonn venture.
A wealthy and greatly esteemed Cuban
was laid to rest yesterday morning be
neath the oaks of Bonaventure. Mr. Adolfo
Dußois, had lived in Savannah for some
months. He was known most favorably to
quite a circle of friends and acquaintances.
He died day before yesterday at his board
ing place, No. 23 Liberty street, west. The
funeral was at 10:30 o’clock yesterday
morning.
Mr. Dußois was a Cuban of French <les
cent. His family is a wealthy and influen
tial one in Malanzas province. He himself
lived in Matanzas until the affairs of the
island became so unsettled. It was some
time ago that he sold out all his interests,
moved to New York and invested his mon
ey in that city. America had been the
home of his adoption for two or three
years. He was greatly devoted to this
country, and was accustomed to say that
he nevep'Would Care to ieave it for Cuba.
The deceased was a man of education,
talents and refinement. His nature was
kind and gentle, and those who knew him
feel genuine regret for his loss. He leaves
in Savannah a sister-in-law, Mrs. Dußois,
end her two daughters, all of whom were
faithful and untiring in their efforts to
ward off tiie fate that overtook him. He
had suffered for a long time from a heart
trouble, and his death ivas not a surprise
to his friends.
Some months ago there was quite a col
ony of the Dußolsee in the city. Two of
the brothers of the deceased fame from
Matanzas aboard the Vessel that brought
in the large parly of refugees. Other mem
bers of the family were here and many re
member with pleasure their acquaintance.

William E. ’Wall, constable for Justice
W. E. Bevans on Drayton street, died yes
terday of mhiarial fever at his home on
Bast Broad street. He had been suffering
with the disease ten day*, but his strong
constitution gave his friends reason to be
lieve he would recover. The remains will
be taken fo Ridgeland, 8. C., to-day for
interment.
Constable Wall was appointed by Justice
Bevans some months ago, and attended
mostly to civil business. He had the name
of being one of the fairest officers In the
minor courts. Hnd would not stoop to ille
gitimate method* of obtaining business. He
was well liked by Justice Bevans, and
had ai*o formed many pleasant acquaint
ances among ihe attorneys. He lost his
arm by an accident In a saw mill when
very young, and ihi* caused many to take
an interest in his efforts to got along In
