WHAT 1T WILL COST.
The Water Supply Estimat to Drain
the Old Fort and Yamacrew.


The city council held a three hours session
last night The tax ordinance for 1889 was
read, and also the ordinance fixing the sala-
ries Of city officials for the next term. Both
ordinances were laid over under the rules,
and will come up before the council as a
committee of the whole
The water works committee which was
authorized at the last meeting to ascertain
the cos of the water supply necessary to
carry out the new plan of sewers in dis
tricts Nos. Z and 9, as designated on City
Surveyors Winn's map, submitted its re-
port as follows:
To carry out the plan successfully, supply
main pipes will be necessary in all the sire is
in which there are none at this time TO furnish
the water to all premises in which water closets
are to be placed, and all the flush tanks con
veniently supple /. The cost of the necessary
extensions will be:
FOR DISTRICT NO. z.
For 49, s25 feet finch pipe. s., 986 %
For 400 feet 6-inch pipe. 400 90
For SO 4-inch fire hydrants. 1850 90
For 10 finch valves ........ 100 90
For 6-inch valve. 20 90 1886 25
The estimated quantity of water needed for
flush tanks and water closets, 100000 gallons
per day of twenty four hours.

Total cost. .............. slzOl8 Is
The estimated quantity of water needed for
flush tanks and water closets, $4,000 gallons
per day of twenty four hours.
The additional quantity of water required will
entail much heavier duty on our pumping
capacity. The rate of the consumption at this
time is averaging 100000 gallons per
day of twenty four hours From 8
o'clock in the morning until 10
o'clock in the evening the delivery is at the
rate of 200 900 gallons which is all the eighteen
artesian wells are capable of furnishing; and to
supply the additional quantity of water for the
purpose of flushing sewers and the number of
house uses in the districts four to six new wells
will be necessary. The cost of the new wells
would be from So, zoe to $4,000.
An appeal case from the police court
occupied the couucil for an hour and half
rne case was that of Lizzie GIvens, one of
four colored women who we're arrested fer
participating in the Yamacraw riot on
Thanksgiving day, and who were fined
800 each by Acting Mayor
Schwarz The Owens woman
claimed that she had nothing to do with tne
riot and was on an errand up town for an
other colored woman when she was arrest ed.
| Several witnesses were examined, and the
| judgment of the police court was affirmed.
Mr.. J. C. Dugga read paper on SANTA

Armory Tonight.


Armory Tonight.
There may be some thugs in which Sa-
vannah people are wanting, but charity is
not one of them. They respond promptly
and literally to every call for help. The
managers of the Port Society fair, which
begins tonight, have been surprised at the
hearty and whole-souled way in which their
appeal for help has been responded to. OF
course everybody knows that the Port So
ciety is purely Charitable institution. 1t
is, in fact, an institution of the city. One
citizen is, or ought to be, as much interested
in it as another. Those who give their
time TO il deserve especial praise, because
they are doing great deal Of good, and arc
making the sailors home very popular
place.
On Friday nights, when there are con-
certs, there is scarcely standing room, and
on Sunday nigh s, whom religious services
are held, the attendance is very large. Tho
fair tonight and tomorrow night at the
Guards Armory hall is solely for the benefit
Of the sailors who visit this port. The
steamships, the sailing vessels, the pilot
boats and the tugs will all DO represented at
the fair Savannah is in fair way Of
being the most popular port in the country

here, and seafariug men, being big-nearted

Gov. Foraker of Ohio, seems to have the
"bee" In his bonnet as we'll as the greater
lights, Blaine and Sherman; and devotes
considerable part Of his message to the
Ohio legislature to the subject of the tariff.
He shows that the number of sheep and the
value of their wool clip In that state have
steadily diminished; but says 1t is due to
the reduction of the tariff on wool. 1t
might possibly be because of the tariff /;
but that is not suggested. He does not
explain, however, In his tariff discussion,
why 1t is that In the heart of the wool
country, with home market and all the
advantages on their side, the Ohio wooden
manufacturer pays his help only $3.50 a
year each, while the Connecticut man who
hauls his wool from Ohio and sends his
goods back can and does pay his hands
$685. year each. The tariff ought to hold
wages as high In Ohio as In Connecticut.

Suits have been commenced in the Cir
cult Court of this county against the bonds
men of W. r. Milligan, s. W. Raymond,
A. T. Bartels and p. W. Stscksleger, to
recover money these gentlemen are alleged
to hold belonging to the county. That's
business. Possibly, now, before the present
generation of young men shall have gone
to the traditional bourne, settlement with
those ex. officials may be had that common
people will look upon with confidence as
entitled to respect and as final. If all the
fool nonsense Of criminal proceedings had
been omitted and the matter gone at In
this way year ago, much bad blood, and q
great deal of unnecessary expense and
scandal would have been avoided, and the
whole "boodle" business have become a
thing of history. But, then, Doc. Norton
would have remained In his natural place

THE President, he asserts with still more
unblushing and brazen mendacity, ever

he may have an excuse TO make "the
greater reduction on articles that come In
competition with articles of home produc-

lessness to utter the howl of "free trader
against the President and his political as
sociates, and indulge In the pothouse accus.
alton against them of being the deliberate
enemies of American labor. After all this
deluge of mendacity Mr.. Sherman still has

should appear that any duty on any article

We defy any honest man to go through
the Presidents message from beginning to
end and find one sentence or word that Is
in conflict with what Sherman here says he
would "agree" to. The President distinctly
scouts the accusation of being "free

breathes a constant and anxious concern to
do nothing that will in the remotest degree
be injurious TO our great industries.

There really seems no excuse for the
summonary action of the City Council in
ejecting the Cation water pipes from the
Hin Dis river bridge. If the pipes are toe
heavy they can be removed in time, and
as there is no probability that they are
going to break the bridge instanter, the
company should be allowed time to make
other arrangements for bringing their pipes
across the river. The action of the Mayor
In granting Temporary relief is sensible,
for the loss of water even for few weeks
would be an intolerable annoyance to the
business part of town-an annoyance and
loss that makes the summary action of
Tuesday night manifestly ineXcusable.
The proneness of the council to fly the
track and make an exhibition of them
selves was never more manifest; for if they
had stopped to think for an instant, the in
justice and lack of common sense would
have been apparent. If necessary, have
the company remove the pipes, but in jus,

| Under the above caption our neighbol
Of the Republican In presenting the protec-
tionist's Idea Of the effect of duties, says:
The assumption that the duty on ar
article Is added to Its cost, and Is paid by
the purchaser, rests wholly In the imagins
ton Of the person making 1t. The claim
Is true only on articles OF very limited
production In this country, like sugar, but
not the case with articles generally manu-
featured, the prices of which are kept
down by sharp competition.
Now this is all very pretty. Il is just
what the protectionest says every day; but
II true, and examination of prices shows
some wonderfully strange condolences
For instance, the Am. Manufacturer of
Pittsburgh, Hon. Jos. d. weeks, editor, In
In Its issue of Dec. 23d, quotes the price of
Bessemen Steel Rails at works at Wolver-
hampton at AZ, Is, Cd 10 4e, S.. Allowing
"a cents TO the shilling this price would
read $3.50 to $50. 40f. o. b. With Transport
tstion, Insurance and commission charges
added, English rails would cost In New
York say 81 per ton more, or sci so to
$2240. The duty is $l7 ton; so that
English rails In New York that day would
cost $3.50 to $304O. The An mr., the
same day, in Philadelphia market report
says:
STEEL RAIIs-Steel rail- makers here
declare they will shut down rather than
sell at less than $32. The squirt In orders
Of B couple of weeks ago has been followed
by a surprising dullness Both sides are
resting on their armor, so TO speak. No
negotiations are believed TO be In pro
gress, and the makers are very determined
In their expression not to yield and will
shut down, they say, before doing So The
probabilities, however, are the other way
with most mills. 1t Is likely they will run
their mills and make rails TO have ready
for the stubborn buyers when they con-
cludo to come In.
The Bulletin Of the Association says the
price at the mills twas trm at 1913, and
one firm refused $34; prices low, but have
unmistakable stiffened." All through the
boom days the Am. Mfr. continually
warned the mills not to get their prices
high enough TO permit Importation! 1t Is
certainly a coincidence to say the least that
the prices should be 30 near the foreign
price with duty added.
On the same day Bersemer pig iron was
quoted In England (See an. Mfr, Dec. 23)
at AIS. T. o. b, or $102S currency; the duty
is 81, that is SIZES; carriage, insurance
and commission, So, total $l92S, American
Bersemer pig the same day has quoted at
$19.25 to $l975. Another singular conci-
dence!
Middlese pig (same day. London prices,
rather weak" at 35s, Cd, or $3.50, or with
so for duty, etc, $1752 In New York.
Pittsburg price, $500 to $3.50.
Isn't it singular that these prices should
be so remarkable close together? But of
course, "the assumption that the duty on an
article is paid by the purchase, rests wkoRy
In the Imagination of the person making
IT,"
The editor hasn't been trying TO buy pig
