IT IS AFTER SAVANNAH.
The American Theatrical Exchang,
Wants It on Its List.

The American Theatrical Exchange
Wants It on Its List.
MIR. Henry Greenwau, manager of the
American Theatrical Exchange, is ex-
pected in the city to-day to see MIR. T. f.
Johnson, manager of the Savannah
theater. This visit may be considered
significant when it is understood that
this association is attempting to get Sa-
vannah on its route list to the exclusion,
if possible, of the Klaw Il krlanger Elk
change, which at present is booking
agent for the attractions that come here
The Klaw & Erlanger Exchange at
present acts Is the routing agent for the
theaters at Richmond, Norfolk, Whining
ton. Columbia, Charleston, Augusta, Sa-
vannah, Jacksonville, Macon, Columbus
Atlanta, Birmingham, Montgomery, Mo
bile, Nashville, Memphis and one house
in New Orleans.
The association has leased one or two
of these theaterS, and for the others
merely acts as booking agent. The Amer
lean Theatrical Exchange of which Mr.
Henry Greenwich is manager, has control
of the entire Texas circuit one house in
New Orleans, and has just obtained pos
session of the EdgewOod avenue theater
in Atlanta by leasing it for ten years. 1t
seems that this association is trying to
make up a circuit for its ATTRACTIONS in
this part of the south. Now, It is be-
lieved it is trying to get control of the
Savannah theater either by leasing it or
making arrangements to route its at
fractions through this point. What it
will be able to do in this connection re-
mains to be seen.
Manager Johnson says of course he can
not prevent them from building a theater
here if they desire to do so, but he as
serts that neither this exchange nor any
other can get possession of the Savannah
theater except by buying it outright He
says he is willing to sell out, but that
none of these companies can lease ii.
There was some talk of a purchase of the
Savannah theater for the purpose of
building new one last summer, but the
matter seems to have been dropped this
year and nothing has been done recently.

THE TRACK OF THE STORM.
How the Weather Bureau Kept its Ely
on the Big Hurricane.

How the Weather Bureau Kept its Eye
on the Big Hurricane.
The weather bureau has issued a series
Of maps showing the movement of the
West Indian hurricane Of Sept. "a to 20.
The center of the storm, its movement,
and the weather conditions of the sec
tions affected by it at o'clock each
morning, are shown in the maps for that
day
The maps are accompanied by a general
description Of the storm, showing the
benefits of the warnings sent out by the
weather bureau.
The storm was the first of its kind the
present season, and was reported in the
vicinity of Martinique, one of the Wind
ward islands of the West Indies, the
night of the goth. From that time the
disturbance was closely watched
as it followed its west
ward course over the caribbean
sea, but the widely separ ated stations of
observation prevented an exact determi-
nation of its intensity until the morning
of the oath when the center was APP
proximately located about 200 miles south
east of Key West. On the morning of
the 2lst, however. a warning of the pres
ence of the storm in the Windward
islands was sent to Nassau, Bahama
Islands, and the afternoon of the 22d the
observers along the Atlantic coast from
New York to jacksonville were notified.
The morning of the 23d, warning of the
storm approaching Cuba was sent TO New
Orleans, Pensacola, Savannah and Jack
sonville, and in the evening observers in
Florida were ordered to notify post
masters by telegraph of its approach.
Northeast storm signals were hOisted at
all Florida stations except Jacksonville,
and information signals were displayed
on the gulf coast and at jacksonville; and
notice of the movements of the hur-
ricane was sent to observers on
the Atlantic coast from New YORK
and Philadelphia Maritime exchanges.
From then on the entire coast was kept
advised of the progress of the storm.
Tropical storms Of the ty pc to which
the recent disturbance belongs generally
| move lelsurelY westward over the Carri-
bean sea or the West Indian Islands, re-
curve slowly at some point between the
Bahamas and the west portion of Gulf of
Mexico, and pass thence nOrtheastward
toward Newfoundland the longitude of
| their recurVe and their subsequent
| course being apparently largely con
| trolled by the distribution of at
mOspheric pressure and temperature
over the United States and the west
part of the Atlantic ocean. The excep-
| tionally destructive nature of many of
these storms has prompted the weather
bureau 10 a special study of their charac-
teristics and habits, and the almost abso-
lutely accurate forecasts made of the
character and movements of destructive
disturbances of this class during the last
two years have been of incalculable value
to individuals and representatives of
marine and coast interests who profited
by the ample and timely warnings
Observer SmVth of the Savannah
station was advised yesterday by the rep
resentative of large maritime interest
that the warnings of the weather bureau
had probably saved his company $3.50, 600
of property that would otherwise have
been lost.

BOLD DOG THIEVES.
An Organized Gang Believed to Be at
Work in the City.

Work In the City.
The number of valuable dogs that dis
appear from their owners and the
knowledge that a systematic robbery is
going on has aroused dog owners to the
necessity of taking some steps to put
stop TO dog stealing.
The law provides for the punishment of
thieves of this kind, and about the only
thing TO be done IS for the Sportsmen's
Association or the owners of fine dogs to
employ detectives and capture a few
thieves and the courts will punish them.
There are, it is said, several fences"
where stolen dogs are kept until they can
be shipped away or until the owners cease
to hunt for them. There is reason to be-
lieve that there is a gang of white men
and boys which makes a business Of dog
stealing, and it is almost impossible to
keep a good dog or a good looking dog.
The thieves steal them out of yards and
snatch them out of the lanes and OF the
