day the disaster was almost repeated.
A fire started about 100 p. m which
swept away many of the most pros
porous business enterprises OF the city.
and for a time it was feared the whole
town would burn. The loss is about
$500, 900, and the insurance is placed al
$400, 900. A strong wind forced the
flames. and the local fire department be
came powerless, SO that assistance was
telegraphed for to Savannah, Waycross
and Jacksonville, whose departments
promptly responded that they would
send aid. AT 4;30 the fire was got under
control, but not before one life had been
lost. Charles Smith, an employe of the
Brunswick and Western railroad, was
overcome by the heat and died. a num-
Der of sailing vessels were in danger
during the progress of the flames, but
all were saved. -.--
The flames started on the Brunswick
and Western wharves and within an
hour the wharves, two large warehouses
and a number of cars, including the
freight contained therein, were consum-
ed, entailing a loss 10 the company of
5000, 900, partially insured. The extern
sive property of the Downing company,
dealers in naval stores, became ignited,
and the structure, with its valuable
stock, was consumed. Their loss il es-
timated at s200, 900, almost covered by
insurance. The flames then swept up

At the conclusion of the meeting
George T. Oliver, president Of the Hoins

and have succeeded in agreeing among
themselves that in the future all negO-
tiations shall be confined strictly to the
producer on the one hand and the con-

large quantities from a manufacturer,
for which he has no customer in sight.
When the time of delivery arrives the
manufacturer viii naturally expect his
customer to furnish specifications for
the steel. His only course is to dump il
on the market at any price ii viii bring.
One such transaction has in many in

of the entire market. and even the bus

hope through the influence of this or

and interchange Of views, to do away

ut is not our intention to bring about
any undue advance in prices. The price
which has been agreed upon for the
present $40 per ton, is fully justified by
the strong advance which has taken
