this city this summer and located at the
wharf at the rear " the Parker House,
from whore the salmon will be shipped
by rail to the cold storage plant at Gohlc
for shipment east, The work ~ moving
the station has already commenced, but,
strange to say the greatest difficulty Is
IN procuring a mess house and quarters
here for the men, There arC plenty ot
vacant buildings but tt Is said that thc
rents asked are exhorhitant, and the rock
cries and buildings adjacent to the wharf
on Astor street and ON Ninth street are
held at between N5 and SN per month.
II is probable that salmon will be bought
lor freezing purposes u orr extensively
this year than last, as there are rumors
that several new men will have stations

that will be allowed him.
For the forty-niue buildings that are to
be comprised in the hospital IL is estimated
that there will be 1900 large posts neces-
sary. The buildings are 10 be built up on
these posts, thus bringing them entirely
of the ground. 1t is also estimated that l.
OO00OO shingles viii be required. The lumber
used will run in the neighborhoOd of 3,

WANTS ENonMous Lot OF LUMBER.
Government in the Market for Near

Government in the Market for Near
Iy Twenty-Five Million Feet.
The market for southern pine lumber is
being decidedly strengthened by the adj
vent Of the United States government as
a buyer Of the first magnitude. Prices are
showing a strong tendency TO advance
materially, Il is said, and the outlook is
considerably better than It has been in
some time. During the past few months
the market has improved somewhat, and
with an increased demand, coming at this
time from the government, higher prices
are anticipated
In all the government is said to be So
Letting bids for the delivery of nearly 25,-
10000 feet of pitch pine lumber about
evenly divided between dressed and un-
dressed. over 20O00,0 900 feet are 10 be ship
ped to Cuba and Porto Rico for the build
ing Of barracks, hospitals, government
wharves and other purposes. The value
of such purchases will fail little short Of
s275. O0O Bidding, of course, is not restrict
ed to Savannah firms. AS there is apt to
be considerable competition. prices may be
cut but the tendency of the trade is said
20 be TO avoid injurng the general market
in such a way. Savannah firms are fig
uring on the specifications, and If they
decide 10 put ~ pdS, the greater
mart of the lumber viii prob
ably be shipped from this port
to the West India islands. The largest
cargo of lumber that has ever left this
port was that on The five-masted schooner
Gov. Ames. LOCO 600 feet in round num-
bers. 1t would take twenty or more OF
such ieviathaRs among schooners 10 carry
the humber to the islands, while of the
regular ordinary schooners plying between
here and the Northern ports with lumber
fifty or more would be required. If all
the mills of the Southern Pine Company,
the greatest in lumber manufacturing in
this section, were run for six months, they
would just about nh the order. This gives
some idea of the magnitude of the order
that is 10 be placed
While the great bulk of the lumber need
ed is TO be shipped, a large amount will
be needed here in the building of hospi-
tails, etc. In ordinary lumber for Cuba,
il is evident that the government expects
it's control of Cuba 70 be continued some
time, perhaps Indefinitely, and is prepar-
ing accordingly.
Despite The enormous size of the or
ders now about to be placed. it is the
impression that IL viii be followed by
| others and that the lumber trade will be
| considerably stimulated by the needs OF
I the government.

WILL HAVE TO BORRow MONEY.
Georgia Historical Society Needs the
Fund Due by Members.

Georgia Historical Society Needs the
Fund Due by Members.
The November meeting of the Georgia
Historical Society was held last night. The
regular routine business, such as the
election OF members, passing resolutions
for the purchase of new books, etc, was
transacted after which the president Col.
John Screven, gave the members an i'm
portant talk on the subject of finances.
Col. Screven called the attention of the
society to the small cash balance in the
treasury, and stated that it appeared that
something more than 40 per cent of the
membership dues of the society We're yet
unpaid. This means dues for the current
year, which should have been paid May I,
1898.
Under these circumstances, Col. Screven
said, measures would have to be taken to
provide funds TO meet the exigencies OF
the society. He said that if the fund
due the society are paid, or if only part
of them are paid, there would be no diff
ficuity in carrying out the society's highest
and best objects. 1t is incumbent on the
society, he said, not only to maintain a
circulating library, but also under the
principal ana fundamental requirements If
It's EnarIer 10 collect, preserve and dffuSe
information relating to the history of the
state of Georgia in particular, and relating
to American history in general.
These objects have been wholly neglect
ed of recent years, Col. Screven said be-
cause of the lack of means to carry them
out. There are in the archives of the So
ciety manuscripts of very great value. the
preservation of which can be secured onlv
by having them printed. Among these
are the papers of Hawkins general In
dian agent of the United States; the mann
script minutes of the revolutionary COM
mIttee OF safety, the autobiography of
Gen. James Jackson and his notes upon
Ramsays history; the manuscript Journals
OF both the Tory or royal and the patriot
legislature of Georgia, both of which gov
erned in the state during the same period
OF the revolution, besides other documents
of great interest and value, which should
be preserved and published in available
form. That, he said, could be done only
by having them printed. II the societ
could OBTAIN only portion of the amount
winch IS due 1t there would be no hesta-
ton about rescuing these documents from
their present oblivious condition.
Under present circumstances the society,
hnds itself under the necessity of eoi,e
to the bank and borrowing money for The
purpose OF paying current expenses A
resolution was passed authorizing the nrae
ident 70 borrow as much as $500. if neces
sary for this purpose. This step had To he
taken, because of the failure on the nar+

pay their dues for the current wear

A golden haired boy. sobbing bitterly in
a cell at the police barracks last night.
kept the other prisoners awake. and
caused many gruff voices to cry out,
Hush, boy, and go to sleep" But the lit
hour leaned against the iron door of his
cell and wept for his release.
My name is Frank Jones'" he said, "and
1 am here because another boy said took
his bicycle. He loaned it to me. and when
I returned 1t as I promised to do, he called
an officer and had me arrested. 1 have
never been In prison before, and 1 want
10 get out"
Frank is a member of a prominent fam
lily in Jacksonville, and the police ere
holding him as a runaway boy. His mar
tial spirit prompted him 70 come TO Sa-
Nannah with the soldiers, and since being
here, 1t is said he has been with them
considerably. He wears the regulation
SLOUGH hat, slightly turned up in front
and behind much after the fashion of SOL
diers. He wears knee trousers, but when
seen at the station house was without a
coat.
G. f. Bunting, connected with the depot
commissary of the Seventh Army Corps,
stationed at the Central Railroad ware
house. reported Frank He knows the
boys parents at Jacksonville, and soon
found out he had left clandestinely. After
Frank borrowed the bicycle Bunting con-
cluded IL best, when he returned, to in
form the officers of the matter, so they
could take care of Frank until his parents
could be advised OF his presence in Sa-
vannah. He was Unexpectedly placed in
the hands of Detective James ]. Barrett
on Broughton street. and the officer sent
him TO the station house subject TO the
direction of MIS- parents
Frank does not like the idea of being in
custody He says he has relatives in the
army who are watching out for him. If
this is the case they viii probably be
heard from to-day, otherwise his parents
Will likely want him home. At any rate,
the night spent at the station house will
be lasting heaviness to Franks army
experiences, and one he viii never forget.

The examination Of the men is held In
