For publishing legal notices the
WEEKLY FREE PRESS bid 10 cents an
inch for the first insertion and six
cents an inch for each subsequent in
sertiOn. If the council desires week
ly paper as the official organ it cannot
but accept the above bid. If it de-
sires a daily paper, the only daily
paper in which legal publications can
be made is the DAILY FREE PRESS.
Out of the thirteen items of job print
ing upon which both papers bid the
ReUieac is lowest in not a single item,

Plays may come and plays may go,

promises to do so. 1t is now in its twelfth
consecutive year, and its drawing powers

The realistic fire scene, which termi-

act, are thrilling enough to satisfy the
most intense craving for sensationalism,

what Can't. Hopkins Did.

Editor Morning News: In Justice to
Capt. George Hopkins of the tug Bristol,
and Pilots John O'Brien and William
Won Harten, and Capt John Mack and
the crew of the tug, wish to contradict
the statement of Mr., Cornell.
The true statement is Capt Hopkins,
who, by the way, is as competent n sailor
as ever stood at wheel, hearing the City
of Savannah was in distress, went to sea
with Volunteers Capt. John Mack and
Pilots O'Brien and Won Harten, and
found the steamship in the south breakers
of st. Helena entrance. He ran his boat
into fourteen feet of water, between a
quarter and half mile from the ship,
which, as the tug draws ten feet, was as
near as he dared go
Then Captains O'Brien and Won Harten
launched the life boat and attempted to
reach the ship, but after battling with
the sea about an hour, returned to the
tug. Captain Savage told Captain O'Brien
he saw this from the ship, but as he did
not see the return he concluded the tug
had lost two men. The tug laid off and
on to the east and south of the steamship,
sounding and hoping to find some channel
through which to reach the vessel, but
finally after consultation with his crew
they concluded to go inside, and if possi-
bic procure life boats and return in the
morning
Meantime they saw the City of Birm-
ingham, and as she anchored and would
probably lie by all night, the tug left
This surmise proved correct. Next dap
the tug went to sea, and, meeting the tug
Cecilia, heard the Birmingham was still
there, and went 20 see if he could render
any assistance, but arrived just as the
steamer left. He went close enough to
exchange salutes with the Birmingham
1t was TO such men as Capt. Hopkins
and the others that the survivors of the
Savannah owe their lives.

BROUGHT IN THE soUrHER.
The Birmingham Picked Up the Crew
And the Dessoug the Vessel.

The steamship Dessoug, Capt. Edwards,
arrived from Philadelphia yesterday
morning having in tow the waterlogged
schooner Joseph Souther, which was
abandoned after her deckload, masts,
cabin and almost everything else had
washed away.
Strange to say the Birming-
ham, one of the ships of the
Ocean Steamship Company, came
along Monday and picked up the captain,
Hudson, and six of the crew from the
SoutheF and then the Dessoug came along
and seeing her an abandoned wreck took
her in tow to this port. The captain of
the Joseph Souther made his protest be-
fore the port warden of the city.
The schooner was loaded with lumber
from Doboy and was bound for Boston.
What remainsuf her cargo is quite valua-
BILE, and vessel and all is probably worth
900 to 10000. The Dessoug having
found her abandoned and brought her into
port, the schooner and cargo becomes the
property of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany There may be some trouble with
the companies which have insured the
vessel, however, if the claim is held too
strongly. The wreck was lowed inside
of Tybee bar yesterday and anchored, and
last night was brought up to the city by
the tugs Jacob Paulsen and H. NJ. G.

though crop advices were not quite so bad
as had been expected, yet in some re-
spects they were unfavorable. Receipts
were small and prices advanced at one
time rather sharply, though Liverpool

there being very slight in response to the
rise here Friday. Toward the close there
was some realizing, and considerable of
the early improvement was accordingly
lost. The closing tone was barely
steady. Prices advanced 8 to 9
points, and closed / to points higher
than Friday sales of s.. 300 bales. Liver
pool advanced % to 3 points, closing
firm. New Orleans advanced to 10
points, considerable of which was lost
later. The receipts at the ports were
1850 bales, against 1887 this day last
week and 8, 1855 last year Southern mar
kets, in many cases, were higher. There
was an advance of 1903 1-16 cents at

THE ARCHBIsHoP's ADDRESS.

MY theme-the Catholics and the labor
questiOn-is not out of place in this congress-
which by virtue OF its rules and the exigen-
cies of It's membership, excludes formal al
liances with distinctive political or religious
organizations. You are concerned in all the
interests of labor and in all the influences
which bear upon those interests. 1t is then,
a matter of great moment for you to know
the posi- ion which potent and worldwide
church takes upon the labor question.
In this view Tor the nonce the Catholic
church is simply as an existing fact, with
which men, thinking and working for
humanity, must count because of her impress
upon the actual ideas OF the world. This inn
press is necessary, deep and far reaching,
for her children number 250, 900, 600 Her COM
mands find attentive ears over all continents;
her chieftain rises in moral power and public
majesty above all other rulers OF men.
THE RELIGIOUS INSTINCT
Religion remains the strongest instinct and
the most VitaliZing force of humanity. Ad-
verse criticisms and threats OF destruction
hover around. They remind me Of the storms
which alarm and confuse the surface waters
of the ocean, leaving its depths unmoVed
Religion Will last in spite OF
all opposition. Il works as no other
ligion organized-reli put into work
ing forms and bent upon giving to
its own princi pies concrete life among men.
The cause Of labor the Catholic church has
solemnly espoused Her supreme pontin.
Leo XIII has spoken in the encyclical ION

statement OF her CONVICTIONS OF ages, and OF
her intelligence Of the present evolutions of
society and of the duties Of Christians of the
