TRAFFIC OFFICIALS RETURN.

Request of the Merchants AssOcia-
ton oe New York Refused.
Mr.. E. II. Hinton, traffic manager, and
Mr.. J. c. Halle, general passenger agent,
returned yesterday from the meeting at
Old Point Comfort of the conference COM
mittee of the Southeastern Passenger AS
ISOLATION. The principal matter coming be-
fore the meeting, besides that of the differ
entails between the rail and water lines,
which were adjusted satisfactorily was
the secoad consideration by the committee
Of the request of the Merchants Associa-
ton of New York for a cheap rate
throughout the territory of the passenger
association. The petition met with no
greater success than at the former meet
ing, the consensus of opinion among the
representatives of the railroads being that
to grant such a petition would be Illegal
The officials believe that the railroads
have no right to grant reduced rate to
any one association, allowing it's men,
bers alone, to the exclusion of every one
else, to enjoy the advantage of the re-
duction BY the plan of the Merchants as
ISOLATION, the members are furnished with
certificates of membership, which, on pre-
sentation TO the agents of roads author
ling the cheap rates, will entitle them to
tickets sold at one-and-o third fares for
the round trip to New York. 1t is this rec
ognition of only those passengers proVid-
ed with these certificates that the confer
ence committee regarded as Illegal. When
cheap rate is put into effect, to be legal
1t must be open to the public and not re-
stricted in its application to any one as
sociation.

THE DAUxTLEss IN PORT.
said That She VIII Engage in the
Towing Business Here.

Towing Business Here.
The famous hlrbuatering steamer Daunt-
less is back again at Savannah. She came
over The bar at T .ybee night before last af-
ter being followed as far as Doboy by the
United States cruiser Wilmington. Yes
terday morning she. was moored alongside
Of the schooner Aaron Reppard at the
foot Of Montgomery street Capt. James
". Floyd is in command OF the tug. She
has a double crew on board and appears
to be prepared for an eXpe lition at mo-
ments notice She has her buukers full Of
coal and is ready to e.2ga &c in towing or
any other kind of work her owner may d.
rect Capt Floyd says he has come to
Savannah to engage in towing.
II was rumorel sons weeks ago that
the Dauntless would jOtn forces with the
Bristol T0wboat Comrs ,ny's boats, and
seek business off Tybee bar. A Morning
News reporter called yes terday at the Of
flee of the Bristol com 1any, and found
that MI j. J. CummiJ igs president Of
the company, was absent from the city
being at Asheville. The representative Of
Mr.. Cummings stated ia al the owners of
the Dauntless We're corr municaung with
Mr. Cummings by tclcgra ph, and arrange
ments were being made 10 have the Ddunt-
less enter in the towing business here. He
said that there was NO doubt but she
would be engaged and VIC uld start TO work
in a day or two.
The Dauntless has given the government
so much trouble during the past few years
and has slipped away so often on tilibus-
tering expeditions, that she viii be looked
upon with suspicion continually. il would
not be a great surprise If she should 80
out on cruise in search for incoming YES
sells, and return after many DAYS, after
having safely landed an expedition at
cuba.
The authorities at the custom house
here have received notice from Washing
ton to keep an eye on the Dauntless and
other hHbustering craft.
The Jacksonville Citizen has the follow
ing account OF the departure of the Daunt-
less from that city:
THE steameI Dauntless went down the
river al an early hour yesterday morning,
leaving here about O'Clock
Upon arrival at Fort George the steam
er was ovorhauled by the gsnboat Will
mngton. An officer from the latter went
on board and, after satisfying himself
that there were no flibustering goods on
her, returned 20 the gunboat.
THE Dauntless then crested the bar,
followed by the Wilmington, and headed
northWard, the Wilmington continuing the
escort. The latter evidently had no in
tention that the Daunuess should turn
around after going few miles up the
coast and steer for Cuba.
owner Bisbee states that the Dauntless
will do towing on the Savannah bar, and
that her trip is legitimate IN every way.
st will be remembered that the Daunt-
less was doing towing on the Savannah
several months, when one fine day she
went in search Of a schooner, being gone so
long that il was concluded the schooner

INCREASED TAX RETURNS.

Personal Property Shows an Excess
of 1921, 712 Over Last Year.
The personal tax returns of the citizens
of Savannah this year are s1O,6SO, $780, an in
crease of 1921, 712 over the returns made
last year. Clerk J. H. H. Osborne of the
board of tax assessors. footed up the re-
turns yesterday and fund the figures to be
as stated. As there was an increase of
sl.24S, 1876 last year it is evident that hard
times did not take as firm hold in Sa-
vannah as in some other cities, where the
returns continue to fall off as they have
done for several years past. Atlanta has
been an especially heavy loser in this re-
spect and so has Augusta
The statement of the personal tax re-
turns for the year, as made out by Mr..
Osborne, Is as follows:

TO PLAY THE FIRST TEAM.
GuytOn to Give the Y. NJ. c. AS
StiR Game Saturday.

Through some misunderstanding on the
part Of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation 1t was announced that the second
team Of the association would try conclu-
sions with the ball team from Guyton
Saturday afternoon, but when the players
from Guyton heard that they were sched-
uled to play the second team they were in
dlsnant and said they would meet the first
team or none. They were good bah play
ers and wanted to tackle a strong team
they said. The manager of the Young
Mems Christian Association, wishing to be
accommodating, will put up the first team
against the Guyton's and some stiff ball
playing may be expected Both clubs have
some good material as will be seen by the
line up:
Guyton. Position Y. NJ c. A.
Nell catcher.......... Charlton
Nell ...............pi tcher.......,.,..... King
Griner ...........1st base........... Reaves
Heidi ............2nd base.......... Clements
l4eClaire ........ Bird base........... Murray
jenkins short stop ....Krenson
Cubbedge ........left field
Arden .........center tieid......... Hopkins
Harrison .......right deld....... Germany
King, who pitched so well the other day,
Will be put up the first part Of the game
He will be relieved bv Krenson after pitch
ing few innings. Charlton, who will do
the back stop work for the Young Mems
Christian Association, proved himself
good one in the game last Friday. His
stops were splendid and his throwing to
bases good. The ability of the Nell broth
ers is so well known that comment is I'M
necessary.
1t is said that Arden, the left fielder
for the Guytonians is a terror with the
4.
interest. Krenson will be seen at short
for the first time this season. He, how
ever, is not green at this position, as he
held it down to perfection when he played
with the Bay Streets few years ago. lie
Claire, who played with the Y. NJ. c. A.
boys in Charleston the other day, will
on Saturday play against them With lie
Claire and Charlton on the coaching lines
some fun may be looked for.
When Guyton used to play here a few
years ago the games always drew well
and should the everlasting rain cease by
Saturday afternoon. a large crowd will
likely witness the game. The Guytons
will have their friends out to encourage
them and the association fans will turn
out in fun force to whoop things up for
the home boys. The Young Mems Chris
tan Associations colors are orange and
navy blue.
In reply to a telegram sent by Secretary
johnson to the Charleston Young Mems
Christian Association. Manager f. X
Marshall wired that their team would be
unable to get away from Charleston any
more this season.
Manager Gleason Of the c. L. A base
bail team, received a letter from AL Mar
shall, manager of the Atlanta team, yes
terday saying that the team would be
down Sunday. Manager Marshall says he
will bring down strong team and prom
ises the Library boys a hot run. Hopkins
and Goss will probably be Savannah's bat
