New York Aug 19.-It is only necessary to
state that the total sales of stocks for the two
hours Of business were 43, 900 shares, to give
clear idea OF the prevailing lack Of interest in
the stock market. Before the bank statement
was issued the room devoted It's time to guess

analyzing the report. In the meantime spec

as favorable. La Touraine brought S1,34S 200

Rice.

The market is about the same, with active
business. The reports still present the opin-
ion that the crop win be short this season
A report published in the NewiOrleans Plea
yune states that reports from responsible par
ties are that the crop is everywhere short,
and that from present indications they do
not believe that the yield will reach above
half of last years figure. Among the rice
brokers estimates are the rage. Many well
posted men are willing to wager that the crop
will not be larger than one million bags, while
conservative estimates do not run over q
million and quarter bags. The official quo

Some Peoples Negligence May Cause
Them Trouble.
Particular attention is directed to the
notice Of Tax Collector McGowan In an
other column concerning the state specific
taxes for 1898.
There seems to be some Misunderstanding
in regard to the law governing those taxes.
for, the tax collector says, while a great
many persons have registered and paid the
tax. there are still quite number who have
registered but neglect to pay, and many
persons are doing business without either
registering or paying taxes.
Under the present law every person liable
to special tax is required to register with
the ordinary and pay the tax Co the tax COL
lector on or before commencing to do the
business taxed. In case Of omission either
to register or pay, it is the duty Of the tax
collector TO turn the defaulter's name over
60 the solicitor general for indictment for
misdemeanor, which is punishable by heavy
tlDe or imprisonment
Another point that deserves the atten-
tion OF those liable to special taxes is that
those taxes are notstransferrable from one
person to another. A party who has
registered and paid his tax may remove his
place OF business anywhere within
the county, but he cannot sell the
privilege be has obtained, and no other per-
son can do business under his tax receipt.

TaB FARMERS CONGRESS.
A Picture That shows the Faces

A Picture That shows the Faces of
Many Prominent Men.
Capt. Purse received a few days ago a
large photograph OF the recent gathering of
the national farmers congress at Omaha
The faces Of many well known public men
who were in attendance upon the congress
appear prominently in the photograph.
The picture is on exhibition in Theus Bros.
window at Bull and Broughton streets.
Along with it is u silver goblet, the in
scription upon which states that it was
awarded to d. q. Purse fo- his services as
secretary of the Savannah Agricultural
Association. The date is 1850
Capt. Purse offers this as evidence that he
has always been farmer and has never
been anything else The rise from secretary
OF small local agricultural association In
1850, TO president of the national farmers
congress in 1898, he considers as fame
enough in the life OF one man.
Capt. Purse expects an attendance of 2, 900
delegates from all over the country at the
meeting OF the national farmers congress

Deposits OF Central Securities May Be
Made Then.
President Conner said yesterday that the
Mercantile Trust Company OF New York
will doubtless be ready to receive deposits
Of Central railroad stock and securities some
time next month, probably by
the middle Of the month. Mr.. Conner
had heard of no further opposition 90 the
reorganization plan than that by the Rich
mond Terminal Company. The reorganiza-
tion committee and the financial organiza-
tions which they represent and the iustitu-
tions which have been mentioned as Ruaran-
tors of the reorganization are thoroughly
committed TO the plan, he said.
Mr.. Conner said that the question of the
reorganization will probably be considered
at the meeting Of the stockholders of the
South estern railroad In Macon Feb. 9
aud that some action with regard to the
position of the Southwestern railroad in
the reorganization might be taken. Mr..
Conner does not think any action unfriendly
to the plan will be taken. The Southwest
ern stockholders, he said, will certainly
take every step to protect their interests,
but he expects no opposition to the plan
from them.
The stock and security holders of the
Central in Savannah appear to have ac-
cepted the plan as the best means Of relief
from the present situation and nothing is
heard in opposition to it. The general
opinion here seems TO be that the plan will
be carried out,

Because Everybody Says So, and It
Must Be So.
Why Is it that all of the ladies of Savan-
nah go straight to Logan when they want
something good for dinners
Because they are always sure Of getting
just what they want, and they are never
disappointed.
Why does Logan receive visits from the
most prominent ladies in Savannah at his
popular stalls.
Because it is convenient for them to stop
by the market on their way downtown on
the Fears, and they are sure to see a
display OF meats that will attract and inter.
est them.
Why is IL that the choicest venison, tur-
keys, ducks. salmon, sweetbread, brains
cod fish and Holsters are always at Logans?
Because the people who secure these deli
cactes in the west are sure that he has
demand for such goods and send them to
him whenever they are fortunate enough to
secure them.
Why is it that orders come in to Logan
In the early part of the week from the
ladies OF Savannah?
Because they appreciate the endeavors OF
an enterprising butcher and know that he
will always supply them with the very best
the markets afford.
And all this Is the reason why'd.

The City Directory for 1893.

The canvass of the city for names and
data for the new city directory is practi-
cally completed. with the exception of a few
of the business houses. The compilation is
progressing rapidly, and copy will be fur
nished TO the printers during the coming
week. Every effort has been and is being
put forth by the manager TO make the work
thoroughly accurate to date of issue. Note
has been taken Of every vacant house In the
city and these houses have been visited
within the past three days to secure names
OF such parties as may have moved into
them, and further note made of the houses
vacated by those who have moved. Yet,
with all this, with careful checking Of the
last volume, and the sending for names
which appeared in that and have failed to
come in this year, some names may be over
looked, and the manager Mr.. A. L. Sholes,
therefore requests that all parties who think
their names have not been taken, those who
have recently moved or any who have re-

most things, pays tribute TO his memory for
his manliness in arising superior to the force

man, has crossed the line. His exalted
character inspired the respect and con-

as much as the lemented Grady to bring
about an era OF good feeling and destroy

are of tremendous import. In conclusion,
