ing exceedingly popular Although there
was no organization in attendance last

WILL LOOK INTO THE NATTER.
Col. Lester to See if Savannah Wa
Overlooked in the Engineers Esti

Col. Lester to See if Savannah Was
Overlooked in the Engineers Esti-
mutes.
1t has been noticed that in the recent
recommendation of the engineering de-
partment at Washington for improve
ments of rivers and harbors and main
tenance of work already done, there is
no provision for maintenance of the work
done on the Savannah harbor. Whether
this is an oversight or an Intentional
omission is not known.
Congressman Lester has been request
ed to see to it that the Savannah harbor
is not overlooked in the budget appropria-
tions for the ensuing year. 1t will be
necessary for appropriations to be made
continuously to maintain the depth in the
channel obtained by the work which has
been conducted under the direction of
Capt. Carter.
Congressman Lester, when spoken to on
the subject yesterday, said that he had
not seen the recommendations of the
board of engineers for the ensuing year,
and consequently did not know whether
the Savannah harbor had been included
in the recommendations or not, but he
would make it his business TO look into
the matter he said.
Col. Lester is fully alive to the neces-
sity of maintaining the work. He said
that he felt sure that the engineering
board had provided in some manner or
other for its maintenance. and that the
Savannah harbOr had not been overlook
ent appropriation until July next, he
said and it may have been on this ac-
count that no appropriation was asked
for Savannah in next years budget.

The cold wave which visited Savannah

yesterday was as mild and sunny as if
there never had been a cold wave. A1er-

This law was really placed on the statute

nearly am The railroad charters granted
uriofe that date, and 10 was concluded
that there was no reason why IL should
not become general law.
The Central railroad officials hold that
there is nc law 20 prevent the Georgia

savannah. They say the Central or Sa-
Nannan and Western is the only line that
runs between the same points where the
Georgia and Alabama expects to run

10 the Central railroad in connection with
the former line. They hold that the mean

terminus, must be ten miles or more
from the railroad already built. or. in
other words, the average distance between

more, be Neeu the two points ten miles
distant from either terminus
The passage of the amendment, now
"eioEe the legislature, which changes the
