A SAILORS HOME.
The Port Society Decides to Establish
One Here

The Port Society Decides to Establish
One Here.
The board Of managers of the Port So
ciety met the ladies' auxiliary at the resi-
dence of President J. D. Weed last night TO
sailors home. The outcome of the meeting
was that such an institution will be put into
practical operation in connection with the
reading rooms OF the Port Society within
a few days.
The foundation Of this movement lay in
the fact thatea city ordinance compels
sailors to sleep ashore during four months
OF the year, and they are often compelled
to lodge at unclean and unhealthy sailors
boarding houses.
It was agreed that this institution would
be splendid adjunct to the Port Society,
and those present decided to do all in their
power to make the movement q SUCCESS.
Twenty-four beds were donated by mem
bers Of the society and the ladies' auxiliary,
and they will be put up as soon as possible
in the southern half OF the upper story Of
the building in which the reading roCans are
now located. which has been rented for the
purpose.
IL is the wish Of the Port Society to in
crease the number of beds to fifty as soon as
posi- BILE, and by June l at the latest At
present it has not the means to begin on
larger scale, but hopes to increase the
capacity OF the home until the entire upper
story is in use.
It is the desire of the members of the
society that those of the public who feel go
disposed will aid them in the establishment
Of this worthy institution. Those who can
and are willing to do 80 can notify Miss
Ellen McAlpin, president of the ladies'
auxiliary, at South Broad and Barnard
streets Of the contributions they desire to
make.
The rooms will be well fitted up by the
ladies VINO are interested in the work, and
a small nominal price will be charged for
lodgings
The home will thus be begun on a small
scale, and increased gradually as funds and
contributions will permit. Il is the object
Of the society in the course of time to con-
struot a special building for this purpose.

TO APPOINT ENUMRRAToRs.

a Committee to Meet Mr.. sholes To-
day to Decide on the Apprentices.
At the meeting Of the board of education
Monday night the enumerators who are to
take the school census Of Chatham county
were not appointed, as it was desired TO in
quire into the matter and see who would
make the best appointees.
A committee consisting Of Col. Mercer,
president of the board, and Supt Baker
was appointed TO meet and confer with Mr..
A. E. Sholes OF the city directory to-day to
determine, II possible, which of the
applicants we're best fitted for
the work by reason Of their
knowledge of the districts as we'll as their
ability to properly do the work. That
committee will meet this afternoon.
The enumerators were to have begun
their work to-day, but it was deemed ad-
visable TO take other steps They will be
selected and appointed tonight or to-mor-
rJw, and their compensation will be fixed
by the board.
There are four TO be appointed
and they will be required to be-
gin work just as soon as they re-
ceive their commissions The work to be
done in Chatham county is quite an under
taking, and will probably require the full
time, the limit Of which is set at May 20.
No school census has been taken in five
years, and 1t is expected that the present
one will show large gain for Savannah as
we'll as for the county.

WILL HAVE THBIR HANDS BULL.
A Busy Season Before the City 8
health Department.

A Busy Season Before the City 8
health Department.
The sanitary authorities are going to have
their hands full for the next few months.
The acres of dry wells, thousands Of privy
vaults and unsanitary back yards, II any
thing like properly attended 70, will keep
the officials and employees OF that depart
meut of the city government about as busy
as can be even il the city, as represented by
the mayor, is In a tirst-class sanitary con-
dition.
Steps have been taken to abste the dry
wells at Nos. S. and $50 Montgomery
street, reported to the health board last
week, and the condition OF which was also
reported in the MORNING News yesterday,
and dug wells at Nos 1873 aud 1852
BToughtOn street.
The agent Of the property on which the
wells are located has been notified to COM
ply with the ordinance, which, IL is under
stood. ne refuses TO do. The same premises
were reported TO the mayor two years ago
by the Citizens Sanitary Association.
Another report was made TO the mayor
yesterday by Inspector Desvergers Of the
sanitary association Of the unsanitary con-
dltton OF the closets and yard at No. 100
President street. The water supply had
been shut off from the premises four days
for non-paymenE OF rent. The house is
occupied by half dozen families, white
and colored. The only closet in the house
proper which the inmates of the upper
floors, four families ia all, with a number
Of children, had to use was without water
during the time the supply was
shut of. The closet in the
yard used by colored families was in a con-
dition dangerous TO the health of the entire
neighborhood. The yard ard area way at
the rear of the house were in filthy con-
diton. and altogether the premises were a
nuisance. The agent OF the property was
notified the day the water was shut off the
condition of affairs, but nothing was done
until yesterday, after the matter had been
reported to the mayor by the sanitary as
sooiation's Inspector and the necessity for
immediate attention urged.
The condition of affairs in this instance
brings attention TO the CITY ordinances
which oompels the shutting of Of the water
supply for non-psyment Of water rent in
stead of making the rental a lien
on the property cOllectsble by ex-
ecution the same as sidewalk
improvements. In the cass of leo Presi-
dent strees some of the "a miles were sub
tenants and had no means of protection
against the shutting off of the water aud
were compelled to submit to the condition
OF affairs until the water rental had been
paid and the water supply again turned on.

THE PRESIDENTS oARRIAaB.
1t Commands the Attention of Il
Sight-Seers.

1t Commands the Attention of the
Sigbt-Seers.
WASHINGTON, March 12.-Not since Pres
idenb Arthur was In the white house have
the executive stables contained four finer
animals than the horses which President
Cleveland brought down from New York
The four carriages they win draw are also
very handsome and quite different from the
general rule Of Presidents carriages, in
that two Of them are striped with red
and yellow lines on the wheels and shields
and running gear. President HRrrison's
horses were all from the west and were
superb animals. His carriages were from
the famous shops of the Stockholders in
indiana, the head OF which firm was after
ward appointed delegate to the pan
American conference. President Cleve-
lands animals are from New ork state and
the traps from the Brewster shops. The
four horses are chestnut bays and are
strong, well-Dade animals, and evidently
blooded. Altogether there are four vehicles
"a handsome 4-seated landau, which the
President will use when he attends cabinet
dinners, or wishes to take any one besides
Mrs. Cleveland driving; a phaetoD, a
brougham and a victoria.
The landau Is Of striking appearance 1t
Is ebony black, with dark red stripes on the
spokes Of the wheels and along the sides Il
has the basket finish, and is handsomely up
holstered in black cloth and silk On the
box, where President HarPison's old COACH
man will hold the reins, there are two mas
slve side lamps of glisteniDg glass and nickel
silver finish. The harness that goes with it
has silver plate trimmings, and on the blinds
are the letters sc. c." in moNoRram. Mrs
Cleveland's phaeton is a light vehicle, with
place for the footmRn behind. Unlike the
landau, the color is Of a dark green, with
light yellow stripes on the wheels and sides.
The top swings over so as to nearly prevent
any one from the side seeing who the occu-
pent is. The cushions are of deep green
cloth. The brougnam ia a heavy 2-seated
vehicle, painted black, with silver-mounted
lamps. The victoria has not yet arrived,
but will be here next week.
The Presidents stable is Immediately
back OF the white house, and was built by
Gen. Grant during his last term. 1t is we'll
fitted up and carefully cared for. No sp-
preparation is allowed by congress for the
Presidents carriages and horses, aud it has
always been the custom for each President
to bring his own outfit with him to Wash
ington when he comes to take the oath Of
office. Some of ex-President~ Harrison's
harness is still in the stable. but will be for
warded to him at Indianapolis when be
sends for it,
In striking contrast to the Presidents
turnout are those provided by the govern
ment for the cabinet officers. These are old
fashioned, 4-seated carriages, with the box
on a level with the seats, and glass windows
on the front and sides. They are usually
dingy looking, and the horses are inferior
animals. The carriages, however, are only
intended to be used for official purposes,
although the wives OF the officials monopo-
lie them for social USES

ApIRRCr TRADE MEETING.
Working for Direct Grain Shipments
From Savannah.


From Savannah.
There will be an independent meeting OF
members Of the board Of trade tonight
TO consider ways and means Of bring
! ing the advantages Of Savannah and other
South Atlantic ports more closely to the
attention of the western grain markets.
/ 1t is important to the consummation of
the plans aIready put on foot that these
western grain markets should be made 70
realize that shipments can be made from
here In quicker time aud at the same rates,
a l, lUOmIle sea voyage from New Orleans
around Florida being saved.
1t has been suggested that representative
men from the commercial bodies Of the
large western markets be invited to visit the
| South Atlantic ports, aud made more in
timately acquainted with their advantages,
and this proposition will probably be con-
sidered by the commercial men who are TO
meet tonight. The committee Of gentle
men which has the matter In charge is leav-
ing no stone unturned to bring this enter
prise to a successful completion, and is
doing everything for its advancement.
Another meeting of the committees OF
the three cities represented Is expected
within few days, as soon as the plans
mentioned above have been made. They
are working to have everything In rsadi-
ness to do the work just as soon as grain
shipments begin.
Statistics show that New Orleans is doing
an immense business in the direct shipment
of grain, and that it leads all other Ameri-
can ports in this line. hereceipts OF wheat
at that port for the week ending Feb. 25,
1898, were $40, 400 bushels, while the ship
ments amounted TO 5l9,S39 bushels. The
receipts Of wheat we're about 30 per cent.
more than those of all the other American
ports combined. while the shipments
were about in the same ratio
Receipts Of corn for the same
week we're 929, 955 bushels, while the ship
ments we're 5O4, 24S bushels Its receipts of
corn exceeded those Of any other port, and
its shipments Of that grain we're greater
than those Of New York and Baltimore
combined
This immense business has been built up
practically in the last few years. Not only
that but it has been gradually increasing
from week to week, until New Orleans al
most stands at the head Of the grain ports
Of the United States IL was only a few
years ago that grain began 20 be carried
down the river in barges TO that port. Now
1t handles millions of bushels annually.
Put Savannah in the place Of New Or
leans. Why should not this port obtain a
share of the grain shipmentsi IL is not
question of an adequate harbor, or ample
facilities for making such shipments, but
one OF making the shippers as well as the
foreign buyers acquainted with these ad-
vantages. Deep water will be a matter OF
only few months, then comes the matter
of advertising. The endeavor is now being
made to bring the advantages before those
concerned, and success seems only a matter
Of short time.

A WISE MOVE.

The Savannah Carriage and Wagon
Compeny's New Location a Great
Benefit to Them.
The building corner Broughton and JET
ferson streets, formerly occupied by M.
Boley & Sons, is now in the hands of con-
tractors undergoing necessary changes for
the Savannah Carriage and Wagon Com
pany, whose banners announcing the fact
are air eady displayed on the walls.
Their customers always complained of
their present out Of the way location, so the
move will be a decided benefit, besides
afording more space aud better show
rooms.
Their removal sale" Is attracting much
attention, buyers coming from the interior
and from other cities TO take advantage Of
the opportunity, while out of town dealers
and iverymen are making large purchases
at these cut prices. The sale continues until
April l {; in the meantime their entire stock,
including harness also, Is thrown on the
market. This enterpriRing firm has IN
three years built up remarkable trade in
their line, and to-day are the largest vehicle
and harness dealers in the south, their ship
ments extending from Virginia to Cuba,
with occasional shipments into Maryland
and other northern states.
The present officers are: Lee Roy Myers,
president; Max Robinson, secretary and
treasurer; Charles Brant, superintendent,
who, together with Edward Karow, L.
Mohr and w. deb. Hops, constitute the
board of directors. The Savannah Carriage
and Wagon Company has done much in
making Savannah what IL was never be-
fore-an established and well-known car
riage market.
