THIRTEEN APPRENTICES BACK.
CeDtrals Striking Boys Ask TO BE

Reinstated in the shops.
Thirteen of the seventeen apprentices

account of the fact that they We're forced

by side with a negro laborer have return
ed 60 their machines. Supt. Kline refused
yesterday to discuss the change of base
on the part of the apprentices or to say
what concessions. if any. were made
them.
Four of the lot are still out, but It is
not known whether this is of their own
volition or because they took so prominent
a part In the strike that the superintend-
ent refused to reinstate them. The others
went to the master mechanic yesterday
and asked 10 be put back at work. and
that official referred them to Supt. Kline
He granted their request.
1t is not stated just what is to be done
with the negro who was the original cause
of the strike, but the superintendent has
said that he was not intended as a per-
manent fixture of the shops in which the
boys are employed, and it is likely that
in this matter their prejudices win be
consulted. Upon the subject Mr. Kline
is absolutely reticent and refused TO have
anything to say.

praising him for the service he had rem
dered and commencing him to those with
whom he viii in the future be associated.
Mr.. Benagh came to Savannah to as
sumo charge of the street railway when it
was under more unsatisfactory manage
ment than al present. The need for
superintendent had long been felt. and
the experience Mr.. Benagh had had in
Nashville, where he was superintendent of
the street railways, recommended him for
the position. Unfortunately for him
however, he undertook a big task
without getting complete control. In one
sense he was not at all in charge. He had
responsibility, but no authority He is
said 10 have complained at times about
shoulderng the blame for mismauagement
and yet having all matters to refer to
others for approval who were not MEM
bers of the board of directors The con-
sequence was that he was handicapped
considerably, and where ne settled upon
move for the bettermena of the system,
he ether had to night to inaugurate it, or
relinquish IL entirely.
Notwithstanding these impediments Mr..
Benagh did much good work during his
connection with the company. He made a
number of improvements and was on the
road 10 making others, the establishment
of a central transfer station, etc, but he
soon found the company was not ready TO
move at that rate. Things were brought
to a systematic state as compared with
what they were prior to his connection
with the company There was some i'm
provement in schedules, the men were
more orderly and courteous to the public,
and the Improvement was noticeable as far
as ii went. Mr.. Lotion, It is understood,
saw the barriers which hindered the pro-
grcss of his predecessor, and declined to
accept the position he now holds, except on
condition that he be given full authority to
conduct the railway as he thought best.
Superintendent Benagh leaves Savannah
with the satisfaction of having formed
many acquaintances here who win be glal
10 remember him His successful man.
agement of the Nashville street railway Is
what brought him to Savannah. but the
fact he did not accomplish what he de-
sired here does not probably mean that he
will not again be placed in charge, there
to continue the work he relinquished.

considerably more than he was offered at
previous sale. The sale to-day winds

STILL RULES THE WAVES.
Britannia Owns Half the Tonnage
of the World In Ships and
Uncle Sam Is Next.

The old-time boast that Britannia
rules the waves" was never more justi-
fed than it is to-day. Figures pub
lished in Feilden's Magazine show that
the entire tonnage of the world in ships
amounts to a round total of 81, 673, 52S
tons, of which enormous aggregate
the United Kingdom and her colonies
own rather more than one-half, or, to
be precise, the immense and overshad-
owing proportion of 13,9ss,50s
Deducting from this latter total
LOCI, 5S4 owned by the British colonies
throughout the world, the United
Kingdom possesses no less than 1885,
924 tons. 1t is indeed far cry from this
predominating tonnage to the second
biggest, which, it is hardly surprising
to learn, is that of the United States of
America, and which figures out to 2,465,-
397 tons.
Germany takes third place with 2,453,-
334 tons, which thus follows closely
upon American heels. All probably but
those who follow maritime affairs close
~ will learn with some surprise that
Norway easily occupies the fourth
place.

likely unravel few stitches in his the
DRY If he should lean over the rail in
front of cage Of monkeys and watch
them perform for half an hour. A few

ally there was "ittlest one" About
that time there was a good deal of con-
tention over a piece of string and in the

the baby. Instantly an old monkey
shot from one corner of the cage and
punished the offender. "She must be
