that New Orleans has the advantage of

Mr. W. I. Wiiaon. who 1 one of the fe*v

yesierday, said. "The diM.rmdnaion is
nothing new It has exi-tr* I r yens

to the fact that Iwttrr risks are ofYrre 1.

”Another jio.iit in favor of New Or

car** I* exercised there *n the handling of
cotton. There is not another Southern
port, unlew* It In* Oalveaton, where cotton
l* so carelessly handled, as it is In Savan
nah. It 1* only within very recent years
that the railroad* have provided shelter*
for cotton, an*l a ■**! |rtli of It Is
yet allowed to remain In the open, ex

and a wet hale |Mck*l aboard ship not

mean* lc#w and dam*** by exposure and
in handling The claims f*r country dam
age for Savannah *h pmena have been ex
cessive. and some very serious complJinis
have been made by the Insurance com
panies In New Orleans all cotton is kept
under cover and they seem to exercise
greater care and better judgment in
handling It."
Mr. V\ ls*n remarked Incidentally that
notwithstanding the discrimination in In
suranee rates he observed that Savannah
is |*aying an eighth to a quarter mot* per
l*>und f*>r coiuNi than N*-w Orleans. •oi
on the same grades, as the two |H.r’

would cUm the same in tins p* r?
Mr. E A Cult*, who *k* a a large br**k

said that It is true As to the reason
why Mr. GiMta said dimply Iwcause w

the market conditions which have ruled

In th- Superior Court yesterday the en
i re da> was consume*! In the introduction
of evidence, on behalf of the plaintiff and
defendant in the caae of Anne JE. Cham
pion. against Carlton C Champion The
case, one in which a mother is bringing
certou* charg**h aga-nel her aon, Is ex
citing unusual Interest.
The petition of the plaintiff, which was
tile*! In court acme weeks ago, charg* -
In effect that she was Induced by her wn,
to make him a fee simple dee*!
to certain property In Bouthvllle.
valued at 525.000. which had come to her
under the provisions of the will of her late
husband. of which the son was
the sole executor It was charge*! in
th** petition that Mrs. Champion had made
thi* d*-e| under a total misapprehension
of its pur|ort, meaning and effect, and in
the assurance, induced by the representa
tions of the defendant, that h* r signature
ro the pa|er which she signed was es
sential to carry out some of the provisions
of the will of her Ute husband, under
which sh became the sole heir of the
estate.
Bhe charged, further, that her son
had wasted certain of her Indi
vidual property, whh h had i>een en
trusted to him a* agent and of which he
twid had entire charge, and on this Ac
count asked for a Judgment against him
approximating pi She further asked
that the k-*-d to the property in Houth
vllle, which she cfaimed to have executed
under a mistake as to it* character, and
effect, tie delivered up and cancelled, tin*!
she be restored to her original ownership
and possession of the tract of land.
To ail of thf* charges the defendant.
In his answer tiled In court, entered a
jMeltive and unequivocal denial H* slot
•*1 that not only ha*l h** not wast*s! the
• •state of his mother, but that he had ac
tually advanced her sums greatly ti ex
s-s of those he hud - barged in his ac
count, a* btcaus* 1 of the doss* and tenW'r
relationship that ha*! always existed be
tween them, he h.oi never kept any ac
curate books showing their business deal
ings.
He had never anticipated, he said.
In his petition. that an occasion
ueh a* the present whill ever arise He
believes now that his mother Is acting
a* the passive tool of others, and that she
• l*e# not understand the * barge* that have

timony was lntrodiFel ye*steriav morn
ing It In ’.uled letters between the plain
tiff and the defendant and between ihe
defendant and his father, which went to
show tha# It was the family understand
ing. prior to the death of Mr b rancis J
Champion, that the property in Bouthvllle
should come to his son. Letters from the
p.aintlff showed h.u she understood and
acquiesced in this plan, thougn. perhaps,
a little reluctantly
The plaintiff had charged in her peti
tion t.iat she w is induced to coin* to B.i
vannah during the month of Novem *er
17 by the repented and urgent letters
and telegram* of her son. and that it w**
while she was shopping at his
home that she executed the dee I
to the property In South vtlie
The effect of thl* allegation was
fferlously impaired by the introduction in
•-VI-1* nof a d*ed to Rhe same die I 'l.
which had been executed by Mrs. Ch m
| ikon in Philadelphia during the early
l*rt of the same month The defendant
! explained that he hud hud his mother

! missloner of deeds, before whom eh** h.nl
a*’knowledgf her signature in Phlludei
phl.a, ahd slgnel himself simply a* "Uom

The defendant himself was on the stand
during the afternoon, and was examined
by his counsel. Mr. Samuel li Adam*, lie
was further thoroughly and rigid v cross
examin'd by Mr T M. Uunnlngriam. Jr ,
jof counsel for the plaintiff Mr. Cham
pion's evidence In chief was to the same
effect a* the all* gallons of his answer,
which have been outlined a -ov*.

could not anl did not un I* r-i ind what
she was charging In (lie alb gallons made
in the |M*tltW>n.
In reply to this Mr Cunningham offered
in evidence an offldavit of his own. in
which It was recited that he had gone on
to Philadelphia at the instance of the
l lalntlff arid had there had it conversa
tion of two hours with her lie had ex
plained the i*eitt|.n to her at length uni
