Sunday Tragedy at a Tough Joint In
Savannah.
Savannah, Oct. 21.—Victor Rivers, a
negro, was shot through the heart aad
instantly killed at an early hour yester
day. The tragedy occurred near the
“Red Light” saloon, an east side resort,
where Rivers was employed as a piano
player. The resort is a place frequent
ed by seafaring men, and is well but not
favorably known to the polioe.
The killing was because of a negro
woman, Emma Green, one of the habi
tues of the place, for whom it is sup
posed Rivers had a fondness.
A sailor, called by his companions
“Cockney,” had been attentive to the
woman, and this made Rivers excessive
ly jealous. Because he saw the woman
in conversation with the sailor and his
companions, Rivers struck her a stin
ing biow in the face. The saloon
located just back of Gashouse hiil and
is one of the toughest resorts in the
city.
When the place closed the sailors and
the negro women left together. Rivers

small holes around the square plate cut
out and some of the drilling looked sev
eral days old.
The stamp vault was only six feet
away from the cashier’s vault, which
contained over $300,000 in cash. The
latter evidently had been the objective
point.
So carefully had the job been planned
that the men working in other parts of
the building had not the slightest ink
ling of the daring robbery being worked
almost under their noses.

Leading Hotel of City Goes Up
Smoke—Loss $250,000.
Houston, Ocd. 19.—At 2:30 o’clock
this morning fire broke ont in the rear
portion of the Hutchins House, one of the
leading hotfels in Houston. The flames
spread rapidiy to all parts of the upper
stories of the building, which is a 4-
steft-y structure, covering more than half
a block. The guests, of whom thehous6
was full, were aroused and most of them
escaped. In fact, only one fatality is so
far known to have resulted from the
fire. Thi9 was a person who was heard
to cry for help and the firemen, looking
in tne direction from which the sound
came, saw a man, believed to be a guest
of the hotel, sink back into the flames.
The building is the property of Neu-
hans Bros, and Kessler of C-beulenburg,
Tex., and is valued at about $125,000.
The equipment also belonged to the
above firm and is probably valued at
$50,000. Other losses, it is believed,
will foot up about *’'50,000. Within
the past few months $55,000 has been
expended in remodelling and repair
ing the building.
The fire was confined to the hotel
building, but all inside of that structure
was burned.
The dead man has not yet been iden
tified.
