NEEDED HEALTH CERTIFICATES.
Parties Going to Montgomery Apply
to Health officer LeHardy.

PARTIES Going to Montgomery Apply
to Health officer LeHardy.
Health Officer LeHardy has had two ap-
pications in the last day or two from
parties desiring to go to or through Mont
gomery, Ala, for health certificates, as 1t
is stated that the authorities there will
not admit anybody without them, and are
still maintaining a rigid quarantine.
The parties were Charles A. Williamson
who wished to go to Montgomery with his
wife and two grandchildren, and Mr..
Guest, who desired to send his wife, child
and nurse TO Birmingham by way of
Montgomery. The health certificates were
furnished them.
Savannah is the healthiest city in the
world" DR.. LeHardy said, land 1 cannot
see how any city supposed to be governed
by sensible people can make such foolish
and unnecessary demands. l can attribute
it to nothing but a lack of common sense
on somebody's part
mo state in the union has done more
to keep out disease than has Florida, and
yet Montgomery and some other places
in Alabama and Mississippi are maintain
ing practically a shotgun quarantine
against Florida points, and points near
that state. 1t would seem that they have
Savannah also on the list The people
here will readily understand how absurd
such action is"
This is, perhaps, the first intimation that
has come to light that Montgomery and
other points have quarantine against
Savannah, and for what, it is difficult TO
determine. 1t is not, of course exactly a
quarantine, but the Montgomery people
went to be certain that they do not let
any Florida people within their gates. ana
they are taking stringent measures 10
do it.

ONE GOOD THE STORM DID.
Savannah Mny be Relieved of the
Swinging Sign Nuisance.


There is a fair possibility that the
swinging sign nuisance may be consid-
erably abated as a result of the storm.
Hundreds of these dangers to the lives of
pedestrians were blown down or other
wise so damaged that they will have to
be removed. Now that they are down,
there is a strong feeling in favor of
keeping them down on the ground that
they are a menace to life and an eye
sore
Chairman Davis of the streets and
lanes committee Is strongly in favor of
decidedly limiting the number of swing
ing signs and of forcing them out of use
as much as possible. In many cities they
are barred, and he rather seems to be-
lieve that it would be a good idea for
Savannah to join other cities which have
taken this progressive step. There is no
ordinance prohibiting such signs here,
but there Is one giving tho city the right
to forbid them, and even remove them
when they can be considered dangerous.
Every time we have a blow" said AL
derman Davis yesterday, mo end of
these signs are blown about the streets.
importing the lives of every one COM
PEELED to be on the streets 1 do not be-
lieve such a danger should be continued"

THE CITY CLEANED UP.
Debris Left By the Storm Has Been
Quickly Removed.

DCbHAS AtAt by the Storm Has Been
Quickly Removed.
The cleaning up of the city after the
storm has progressed with a degree of
rapidity that is most gratifying. With
the exception of one or two places on the
outskirts it is hardly possible to tell now
that storm had struck Savannah. The
seavenger department has been diligently
at work, and has accomplished much more
than was expected Mayor Meldrim per-
sonally went over the situation, and in
many instances urged the men to push
the work as rapidly as they could
The city officials are highly plea sed
with the work that has been done. All
Of them speak of it with pride, and they
believe that the people generally take the
same interest in the matter. Commission
er Willink has pushed the work with all
possible speed, and the results show for
themselves.
THE Commissioner of Public Works de-
serves much credit for the manner in
which he has gotten rid of the debris"
said Health Officer LeHardy yesterday.
There was an immense amount of work
to be done following the storm, and he
has seen to 1t that it was done with great

MEAT FAMINE AHEAD.
Packing Houses without "A Pound of
the Western Beef In Storage.

Packing Houses without Pound OF
the Western Beef In Storage.
Savannah housekeepers may yet have
to fall back on ham and eggs for three
meals day because of the storm.
Yesterday afternoon it was reported
that the packing house agencies had not
a pound of meat left in their cold storage.
All had been sold and nothing was in
sight. Several car loads are headed this
way, but their arrival is a matter of I'M
certainty. When the road bed of the Cen
trail is in order they will get in. not be-
fore.
A beef famine seems to be in prospect.
OF course some wire grass beef may be
brought in, but house keepers accustomed
to the Western product will turn to it only
as a last resort. In anticipation of a sud
denly increased demand for eggs as a re-
suit of this, the statement was made last
night that they would probably be up TO
% cents dozen to-day.

OUTLOOK BAD FOR RICE.
Frcshet Coming From Augusta and
Fenred Crop May BE DESTROYED.

Frcshet Coming From Augusta and
Feared Crop May BE Destroyed.
It is now feared that the rice crop on the
Savannah river win be almost total loss.
About fve-eighths of the total crop that
is marketed at Savannah is raised on this
river, and it was expected this year that
the production on its plantations would
be about $4,000 bushels. If it reaches so, =
900 bushels it will be doing more than
some of those interested in the trade were
anticipating yesterday, after the news
came of a great and sudden rise in the
river at Augusta.
At o'clock yesterday morning the
hight of the river at Augusta was PSI
feet, a rise of u feet during the previous
twenty-four hours. This would have been
sufficient to cause much uneasiness If the
conditions in this section had been nor
NAL. With the swamps and lowlands as
ordinarily at this time of the year this
freshet would be largely diverted from the
river before the rice plantations We're
reached and the damage would be light,
and perhaps entirely guarded against. But
with the river already so high, with the
swamps full and the lowlands overlooked
there is no such relief ahead, and the new
freshet vial be merely an additional injury
to that already wrought
AS soon as the news of the rapid rise
in the river at Augusta, indicating heavy
rains in the territory beyond that city, was
received, efforts were made to reach the
planters along the river and acquaint
them with the news, so that they might
know the worst of the situation. The
feeling was almost one of hopelessness.
Everything looks black" said a gen
tleman largely interested in rice culture
ITO be candid, I am afraid the crop is
going to be almost a total loss. The news
from all points indicates that there is
everything to be feared"

Five NOrwegians There Destitute of

Dr. ]. C. LeHardy notified Vice Consul
Rankin of Sweden and Norway yesterday
that there were five Norwegian sailors
at the quarantine station without food.

for them. Mr.. Rankin replied that he
could do nothing with regard to the mat
ter until he had received a report from
the captain of the vessel. The city then
furnished the men with rations for two

BODIES REPORTED FOUND.
A RumOr That Three Were Cast Up
By the Sea at Tybee Island.

A RumOr That Three Were Cast Up
BY the Sea at Tybee Island.
report reached the city yesterday to
the effect that three bodies had been
found washed ashore at Tybee. 1t was
not known whether one of these was the
body of Lieut. Henry s.. Morgan or not.
There were inquiries all day yesterday
as to the recovery of Lieut.. Morgan's
body, but nothing definite was heard re-
garding it. The steamboat Dandy Jim
was out during the day on a search for
the body, but discovered nothing.
SO far as is known, only three men
were drowned off Tybee, Lieut.. Morgan,
Harry Smith, the rlgger, and the sailor
from the bark Noe, who jumped over
board with a life preserver. If three bod
les were found therefore the presump-
ton is that one Of these was that of Lieut..
Morgan.
The Tybee Railroad authorities were
asked about the matter last night but
had heard nothing of it. Passengers who
came up on the last train stated that they
had not heard anything of the recovery
of the bodies, though they had made in
quiry regarding the search for that Of
Lieut.. Morgan.
The passengers from Tybee all speak of
the great destruction on the island as the
result of the storm. There was not much
blowing down of trees, but nearly every
cottage on the island was damaged in one
way or another.
The soldiers of the North Carolina Regi-
ment have put UP their tents again very
near the same place where they were
formerly encamped. They recovered much
of their tentage and secured more from
the Notifications. They are now in pretty
good shape again.

NEED SUNSHINE AND AIR.
Disinfectants of Little Value In Get
ting Rid of Dampness

DR.. ]. c. LeHardy has had large num-
Der of applications for chloro-naphtholeum
for use as a disinfectant, on account of
the immense amount of accumulated
dampness.
DR.. LeHardy says there is no virtue in
the stuff as a disinfectant, except perhaps
in the fact that its strong odor will kill
some other strong odors. Instead of US
ing disinfectants he says it will be much
better for the people to use plenty Of
sunshine and air in drying out their
houses and stores.
Wherever there Is a great accumulation
of dampness little quick lime may be
used to advantage, but as disinfectants
neither this nor the other stuff, be says
are of any particular value.

A Car Load at s., r. and w. Depot
That Wanted to Get Away at Once.
A carload of soldiers bound for SulM-
vans Island, near Charleston, came near
creating considerable disturbance at the
Savannah. Florida and Western depot yes
terday. The soldiers had been there about
about twenty-gour hours, and were be-
coming impatient. They wanted to get
away, and they did not hesitate to make
their wants known to the railroad officials.
Some OF them grew riotous and made an
attack on Master of Transportation Hay
low. A squad of police was called down
from the barracks, and they were. soon
Quoted. 1t was expected to send them out
by the Charleston and Savannah last
night. but that road had not been repaired
and they were sent around by the way Of
Iesup and Atlanta.

THE FLORISTS LOSSES.
Their stock One That Cannot Be
Readily Replaced.


Savannah's florists were among the
worst sufferers by the recent storm, for
the reason that they cannot replace at
once what was destroyed. Their stock is
one that has to be nurtured carefully for
days and weeks, and when it is wiped out
there Is no way of replacing it except by
letting 1t grow again.
Messrs Oelschig and Wagner were. per-
haps, the worst sufferers IN this respect.
Mr. Oelschig lost his windmill and all the
plants outside of his green house. He had
number OF his glass sky-lghts broken,
but the flowers within the green house
were comparatively unharrned. Messrs.
Wolff & Co. lost in the same way. They
had much broken glass, aud their rose
bushes were thoroughly stripped Mr..
Kiesling shares the loss with all of them,
and the chances are that flowers will be
at a premium in Savannah for some time
to come.
