HIS ANXOI MEMI3VT MIT SERIOIS LY CONSIDERED IN St\ INNAII. Ever> limit Hem, It With n (irrnt Deni of Intrrest-llrs, Dewey la Re garded as the Prime Factor—lt Is Relieved She Wnnta to He the First Indy in the l.and and Aspire* to Land Dewey ns President—The Ad miral Seems to Have lint Very Slight Chances—Hanna Must Think the Admiral Ilnlher ( ha ngenble. It was with up little Interest that Sa- Vannahians read Admiral Dewey’s an ncunceirent of his cand dacy for Presidtn as it appeared in the Morning News yes terday. Coming so soon after the Admi ral’s visit to Savannah the announcement had especial interest, ond, if ihe splen did fighter and p ide of the navy yets into the competition for the great honor in sober earnestness his race will he atten tively followed. The urlversal agre'ment was that the Admiral’s announcement was, ,10 say the least, very unique. There was naivete about it that certainly showed that he who made it was not bred in the school political. His admission months ago that he was no politician, and was unfamiliar with political methods, was amply veri fied. thought the production, which had the eat marks of a carefully conned interview or communication for publica tion. Nobody seemed to view' the Admiral’s little “spiel” seriously. Many a laugh was indulged in over H.ivhile not a few viewed it commistratingly. That paragraph that showed the estimation in which he holds the position of President as "not such a very difficult one to fill,” created probably the greatest comment, and It was asked if the Admiral believed himself on thal account particularly qualified to perform ils duties. When Dewey returned to his triumph in New York, one the like of -which was never hud by Roman conqueror, any thing he desired from the American peo ple might have been his. He then said he did not want the presidency. But he did not then have Mrs. Hazen. Many say the millstone has a hole punched in It. and the lady whose second mate the Admiral became is credited with an over whelming desire to be the first in the land. In fact, nearly everybody seems to give Mrs. Dewey the credit for the flight of ambition the Admiral has just taken. It Is th general belief that he would have been content with the great honor he won in the greatest naval battle that had ever been fought, fearing to lay himself Open to the bitter and pungent criticism that was sure to come should he display any political aspirations. •’Why,” said a gemleman famed for his originality, when discussing the sub ject, ”do you know what they would be claiming? They would actunlly say afier a little that Dewey didn’t win the battle of Manila bay at all; that he wasn't even there; that his Chinese cook did the w hole tiling. Mrs. Hazen is doing it all. She wants to be President herself, and thinks Dewey is the way she can get there.” Senator Mnrk Hanna may think it a bit Klranze that the Admiral veered around. A story was told a Savannah gentleman bv the Admiral that showed Senator Mark did rot particularly fancy the report that Dewey wns to take a try for the presi dency It was at a'banquet given the Admiral in Washington directly after he was turned loose by New York. Hanna sat near Dewey, and, in a very offensive •one. said; ”1 see. Admiral, that those d—d newspajters are mentioning you for President. What's in it?” Hanna repeated the question. Then the Admiral turned upon him and with a steely glint in his ’’marine” eyes and _ said; "No; I don't want to be President." Senator Hanna is hardly alarmed, though, It Is thought. The Admiral's Ignoring the parties leaves him high and dry without any organized supporters. With the Democrats backing Bry an and the Republicans lined up behind McKinley, it looks very much as though the Admiral will have little show. The chances now seem that Savannah did not entertain the coming President unawares when Dewey was partaking of the city’s hospitality and artillery punch, THREE ORDERS FOR DIVORCE. Drfrnilnnla 'NotI tied of i’libllcn lion of Process, Three orders in divorce cases, approving the service of process upon the defendants by publication, were grunted In the Su perior Court yesterday.

Prize Fighter Hanlon Anticipated His l ight it ith Cnrcornn. Jack Hanlon, a prize lighter, who re sently came to Savannah to lake port in u "min,” anticipated mutters yesterday by gettlr.uainlo a setup several days ahead of time, with the wrong man, and w-ith no gate receipt features io justify it. The other party to the affair is Robert Hutchinson, a variety |>erfornier, who boards at the Marshall House where the scrap occurred. Hutchinson's story is to the effect that Miss Edith Wilson, his partner in team work, hod become infatuated with Hanlon o such a degree thnt she neglected her work, and that he had written to this effect to her relative; in Philadelphia Han.on, he says, rea.ntcd his act as a personal affront to him, and with no other reason made the attack on him. Hnnlon says, however, that Hutchinson had Instilled the gif!, and that it was to avenge the insult that he became involved In the difficulty. He was released on bond given by John Carr, his manager. COLD Dili NOT HI RT CHOPS. Fruits ami Yegetablen Come Through II , ninjurei, by Frost. The recent cold snap did no damage to the fruit and vegetable crops of this section. Maj. G. M. Ryais has made a enrefui examination of both and did not find n hud of a fruit tree or the leaf of a spring vegetable that showed any sign of having been nipped by the frost. In Worth county, where Maj. Ryais In spected the fruit trees, there had been thin ice in some places, but the fruit was not hurt, even by the degrea of cold that that had sufficed to produce thin. In the most exposed localities even the buds were not blackened or damaged. The prospects for a large fruit crop have not been lessened and all the growers are ex pecting to make their fortunes.

TIY C OLLECTOR ISkS THEM TO MtKE HiriTRYS FOR HACK TAXES.

Tax Collector McGowan has to send out to the secretaries or managers of the various corporal ions Affected by the recent tax declaim of the Supreme Court of the . c tate. copies of the ruling and let ter of advice to the controller general on the-subject, to which he a.-ks immediate attention. hi his letter to the corporations Tax Col lector McGowan says: “I subjoin a copy of a circular recently received by ms from the controller gen eral of the state, regarding back taxes due by various corporation* of this county. “I am now at work on ihe matter, and respectfully' ask you to make to me, in behalf of the corporal In ycu represent, the sworn statement called for in said circular; the statement should show' from your books the valuation of the property described for each year separately, as far back as the default exists, on the dates mentioned below: For year- from 1878 io 1892, inehiwfve, on April Ist of each ye r. For 1892 to 1398, inclusive, on March 1 of each year. For year 1899. on Feb. 1. Please attend to this at cnce. as you will notice that interest runs against you un til date of payment. Refer for particu lars to the subjoined circular.” I< will be noticed that the decision op erates only ns far back an the adoption of the new' constitution, that of 1877, when the section upon w r hich the decision rests, providing that taxation of all property should be uniform and ad va lorem throughout the Ftate, was first in troduced into the fundamental law of Georgia. Some of the corporations, in deed, will not have to make returns for anything like this number of years, as ♦ hey have been organized and their char ters granted subsequently to the adoption of the constitution of 1877. The letter of the tax collector gives the date In each year when the valuation of ♦he property of the corporations to w’hich it is addressed should be made, varying provisions in the law' having changed this date from time to time. The principal revenue to the county from the rendition of the decision and the action of the controller general and the tax collector based thereon will come from the building and loan associations, that are more* affected than other class of corporation**. They are required to pay taxes upon their mortgages, held as security for the money rhat have ad vanced to their shareholders and others for the purchase of land. Telephone §nd telegraph companies ore required to return the value of their per sonal property, including their poles and wires within the limits of the county, their office furniture, fixtures, instru ments and articles of the like character. The tax collectors are instructed hy the controller general "to assess such prop erty just as if It belonged to private In dividuals.” The express company has us ually made a return of its personal prop erty, including Its wagons and live stock and office fixtures. The county does not expect to become rich suddenly by the collection of these hack taxes, as many of the corporations have made compromise returns of their property, thought to be exempted by vir tue of the statute that the Supreme Court has declared to he unconstitutional, dur ing the years when the statute was thought to be perfectly good and absolute ly binding, and these returns have been accepted. Of course the corporations that have not made returns are liable for double taxes for the default. It Is understood, however, that when the returns are made promptly the commissioners will not en force this penalty, but will relieve the corporations of the consequences of an omission, not due to them, hut to the gen eral assembly of the stale thnt passed the obnoxious act. The double tax will be remitted. BATTERY F MAY GO. Reported Tlint t’art of the Garrison nt Fort Screven AYill heave. The officers at Fort Screven, on Tybee Island, have understood that Battery F of the First Artillery, one of the two that constitute the garrison, is to be re moved to another post. No definite order has been issued, but it was learned from an officer recently at the fort that the department at Washington was about to take the step. The report was that the First and the Fourth Artillery were to exchange posts, all batteries of the First taking the sta tions of those of the Fourth. It is said Battery F is to go to Fojd Warren, In Boston harbor. Its departure would leave a battery of the Second Artillery at Ty bee. In Battery F are many Savannah boys and others wio were recruited here.

STABBED IN V DRUNKEN ROW. Two Negroes 4'nt, One of Them Very Seriously. In a drunken row that occurred about 8 o'clock last night at Zubly and West Boundary streets, Sam Harris, colored, stabbed Noble Scott, and also Jake Man igdult, the latter’s wounds being danger ous, In the attack on the latter Hards was joined by Thomas White. Both While and Harris were arrested. , The story of the row, as told by Scott, is that he, in company with two other men, were about to enter a hack for the purpose of going home, when they were approached by Harris, who demanded to cents. Harris was under the influence of liquor, so to avoid trouble one of the men gave him the money, but after getting it he remarked to Scott that he had it in for him anyway, and without further warn ing struck at him wilh an open knife that he had in his hand when he approached the group. The weapon pierced the fleshy part of Scott s left arm, Inflicting a slight wound. Previous to his attack on Scott, Harris had met Manigault at the corner of Bay and Lumber streets, and with the assist ance of White, started in to settle old scores. This he did by giving Manigault several vicious cuts about the face and neck. The Injured man was taken home and a doctor summoned, who dressed his wounds. Another arrest at the barracks was that of Vv llllam Taylor, white, who was sent in by Lieut. Reilly on a charge of as saulting and beating K. Lenoir. At the barracks Taylor charged Lenoir with hav ing used obscene language and assaulting him, so he, too, was placed under ar rest. THEIR CLOSING RECEPTION. Pupils of Mrs. Silvn-Tcasdalc and Miss Sellg Entertain. The last of the monthly receptions by Mrs. Silva-Teasdale and Miss Sells was given yesterday afternoon at the studio, No. 19 Perry street, west.
