THE FISH QUARANTINE OFF
Savannah Dealers Looking for Big
Shipments from Florida.

Savannah Dealers Looking for Big
Shipments from Florida.
The fish dealers are again on their feet
The quarantine on fish has been raised
The order of the health board allows fish
from Tampa, Cedar Keys or Punta Gorda,
or from infected points to be brought on,
provided a transfer is made at Waycross
and the fish well packed on ice. This,
the dealers say can be readily done,
and their only drawback now
will be transportation. Fish were formerly
brought from Cedar KEYS. Tampa or Punta
Gorda to Savannah inside of thirty-two
hours. The dealers are afraid that the
railroads will be unable to give them the
same transportation, and they will not be
able TO advise their customers as to when
they can supply them. Fish will keep,
wien well packed in ice, double the time
that it requires to bring them from Florida
here. Orders are already out for over 500
barrels of fish which will arrive here to-
morrow or Tuesday.
The dealers sent out over 5000 postal
cards to their customers yesterday inform
ing them that the quarantine has been
raised, and to send in their orders. They
expect TO receive orders by the thousand
tomorrow.
I'VE will get from now on between 800
and 600 barrels per week" said one dealer,
land for the first week or two we will be
unable to fill the orders. We hope, how
ever, to have things in ship shape before
long, and we are going to try and
make up IN a measure our loss" Formerly
we only supplied towns in Georgia, but
within the last season or two we have had
numbers of orders from South Carolina.
The fish business in Savannah is beginning
to be an immense business and with the in
crease the dealers will be compelled to
make to handle their trade, must come the
improved facilities for transportation
The dealers are jubilant over the lifting
of the quarantine and they are preparing to
make things hum.
