ECHOES OF TIE FBAsTs.

st. Fatrick's Day BanQuets I cave Be,
hind Pleasant "reminiscences.
The echoes of the st. Pstrick's day ban
quets and the many eloquent speeches de-
Hvered around the festive boards were a
pleasant topic of conversation yesterday
among those who had participated in the
events The many interesting incidents of
the occasion will not soon be forgotten.
Col. Armstrong of Charleston, who re-
sponded at the Green's banquet to the toast
of the "lrish-Americen soldier, was the re-
cipient Of many congratulations on his
speech. Every body who heard it pronounced
the response gem of oratory.
men who served in the confederate armies
and then those who did equal gallant serv-
ice in the union army Col. Armstrong
spoke Of the heroic charge of Meagher's
Irish brigade at fredericksburg, where i6
stood the deadly fire of MoLa VS. division of
confederates with a GOODNESS never sur
passed.
While graphically describing the battle
he never thought for q moment, how
ever, that within two seats of him
sat Gen. McLaws, who listened intently
to the speakers eloquent eulogy of
Irish bravery. When Col. Armstrong sat
down Gen. McLaws asked to be introduced,
and Col. Armstrong was quite taken aback,
though pleasantly, 80 to discover that one
of the heroes of the event he had been de-
scribing was at his elbow.
Most of the visiting speakers returned
home yesterday.

THE F. Q. AND P. DEAL.

Mr.. DuvAl Says 1t is off With the
FlanJ System.
Rumors Of the sale of the Florida Central
and Peninsular railroad, including the South
Bound. to the Plant system, have been cur
rent Tor some time. The Plant system
officials denied the truth of the rumor, and
the Florida Central aud Peninsular people
failed to confirm it. The first information
which seems to indicate that there was anv-
thing in the rumors was a telegram re-
ceived in Savannah yesterday from Presl-
dent Duval, who is now in New York, which
Gays:
THE stock of the Florida Central and
Peninsular will not be purchased by the
Plant Investment Company or by the Sa-
vannah, Florida and Western. The whole
matter is off. The Florida Central and
Peninsular connection to Savannah will be
finished without doubt.

THE TRUCK GROWERS COMPLAIN.

They Say That Through Rates are Too
High to Afford Them Msrgin.
The truck growers Of Charleston and
vicinity are to have = hearing before the
South Carolina railroad commission on
April so in regard to the matter OF through
rates TO northern markets, which they claim
are too high 10 afford them reasonable mar
gin, and IL Is highly probable that the Chat

viii endeavor to Cooperate with them 10
the matter.
Secretary Exley of the Chatham county
association says appeals have been made TO
the railroads which handle the truck traffic
from this section to grant lower rates, and
also to give points along their line which
have members In the association rate which
will put them on parity with this point
This latter request has been refused, and
practically nothing has been done in regard
20 the former
The matter Of rates will be brought up at
the next meeting of the association here on
April l, and the replies sent by the railroad
officials will be considered.
A rate is desired which will give the
season comparative equality throughout.
For instance, in the beginning OF the season,
when produce brings good figures, very
little complaint can be made but when
prices are materially reduced the produce
many times scarcely pays the freight
charges.
Secretary Exley says If nothing else can
be done, the association will probably ap-
peal to the railroad commission for hear
ing in tae matter. The truck growers do
not demand a great reduction. but simply
the establishment of rates on an equitable
basis, which will. allow them a fair earning
during the entire season.

THEY WERE CAUGHT MAPPING.
The Railroads Will Have to Fay Taxes
This Year on CASH on Hand.

The Railroads viii Have to Fay Taxes
This Year on Cash on Hand.
The passage of the act by the last legis-
lature making tax values date back t.
March instead Of being given in at April
l, as recently announced ia the MORNING
NEWS, will probably be the means Of swell
ing the states Golfers TO a considerable ex-
tent.
According to the new law all property on
hand on Maroh must be returned for tax
alton, and right here is where the railroads
come in for q good share Of indebtedness, OF
which under the old law they might have
been relieved
Heretofore the railroads have been re-
turning their property for taxation up to
April l, and as a general thing they do not
attempt to dispose OF Cheir large amounts
of cash on hand, for which they may have
no immediate use until few days before
April l, thus saving the expense Of paying
taxes on large amounts Of cash on hand.
This year it Is said they have been caught
mapping, aud their books on March showed
large amounts Of cash on hand. This they
did not attempt to dispose of before
March l, as il was thought
that the returns would be made as usual up
to April l.
A few days ago they received notification
from the controller general that they wers
expected to return for taxation all property
on hand March l. So there they
we're. Their books show on that date
large amounts of cash on hand
and in many instances other portable prop
erty which might have been hidden out, all
Of which is to be subject TO tho regular per-
centage state tag. Il is estimated that taxes
on property OF this kiad to the value of
nearly 81, 900, 600 will this year flow Into the
states Golfers from the railroads alone.
OF course the change in the law will catch
other corporations aud probably some pri-
vste citizens also, but the large amounts in
the case of the railroads is worthy Of par
ticular note

It was not surprising to the ladies of Sc
vannah when they visited the Palais Royal
millinery establishment the past week aud

rooms TO see the elegant styles. The entire
display was attractive, and those who ap-
probate the finest goods at the lowest prices
were there. There has never been such a
select number Of the various Paris styles as
were exhibited at the Palais Royal, and the
compliments upon the styles have been
lavIshed upon the enterprising proprietor

PITTsBURG DEFEATS SAVANNAH
BY A SCORE OF 10 TO 10.

Oaly Six Innings Played on Account
of the Extreme Cold-Despite the
Disadvantages Savannah's Team
! Shows Up Well Against the Big
Team-Butler end Connauehton Hit
| Twc-baRgers.
] About 500 people saw Savannah's league
team play bail for the frat time yesterday
afternoon. The game was with the Pitts
burg National League club, which won by
/ a score Of 16 to 10.
Savsnuah's boys, although they lost the
game, showed up well against the big team,
| which has some Of the finest material in the
base ball world. The day was miserable
one for ball playing and the cold biting
wind greatly hampered the men. and &C
counts for the large score on both sides.
Only six innings were played, both man
ayers agreeing chat the weather was too
severe to continue for nine innings.
The batteries were Petty and Jamison
and Hurley for Savannah and Gestreich
and Abbey and Mack for Pittsburg. But
Ter played In lefs field for Savannah in
place Of Schaeffer, who did not arrive until
to-day. He did splendid work with the
stick and IN the Geld. In the second inning
he won loud applause for 2-base nit which
netted Savannah two runs.
CONSTRUCTION A PRIZE.
Counaughton played magniAcently aud
proved Manager Msnning's claim TO hav-
ing prize in him. He is a great ''slider"
and made several daring and successful
steals, besides hitting hard. Like Butler he
hammered the ball for two bases in the
last inning and brought 10 two runs. Nc
Carr showed up we'll as a batter. He
kuOokad two halls over tina left f1ald faDne
and they could not be found.
Petty and Jamison, while
little wild for want of practice,
gave indications that they understand how
to twirl the bali deceptively from the
pitchers box.
Nichols, az a fielder, is unsurpassed while
Hurry, behind the bat. puts the admirers Of
the game here in mind of Gillen, the
famous catcher of $50. Meakin also handled
himself we'll, and Manager Manning COW
cred the second bag In style which could
not be improved upon. Curtis played first
excellently.
THE TEAM SHOWS up WELL.
As a whole. Savannah's team, for its first
game, played good ball all round and there
was not the slightest complaint, nor any
reason for complaint.
Pittsburgs team is an aggregation Of big
men who are sluRgers with the bat, and
they we're given well deserved applause
at every good play. Donovan's 3-bagger
which netted Ave runs in the second inning
for the visitors enthused the spectators 70 a
high degree The playing of Mack behind
the bat and his straight throws to second
kept him almost under a continued ovation
during the game. Although the crowd
naturally wanted the home team to win,
yet it could not help but admire aud ap-
plaud the fine work of the visitors.
