demned.

demned.
The meeting Of the Board of Trade was
NOT held at Ii o'clock, but at o'clock
there was a good turn out. nearly all the
naval stores and shipping firms being rep
resented. President Purse called the meet
ing to order by clear and concise state
ment of the proposed Willinghan prohi-
bition bill, which Ii was the purpose OF
the meeting to consider. After explaining
the bill and pointing out the inroads It's
passage would make upon the revenues of
the state, President Purse requested Mr..
7 p. Williams to take the chair Presi-
dent Purse then moved that committee
of three be named by the chairman 20
prepare a resolution. This was ADOPTED.
The chair appointed Capt. Purse, Mr.. Mills
r. Lane and Mr.. l. B. Tiedeman After
brief deuberatlon the committee returned
with the following resolution, which was
passed with only one dissenting vote:
Whereas. A bill now pending before the
Legislature of Georgia, known as the VIII

Whereas, The wisest enactments for man

a Wnlingham law, would be no exception

Lookout for Him.
Mr.. Seaborn A. Smith, lecturer, preacher
and teacher of stenography, has given Sa>
vannah the shake and departed for pas,
lures new, leaving behind him several I'M
paid bills, and a number of anxious credit
ors, and neglecting to leave his new ad-
dress.
A few nights ago he tried to sell out
the interest and good will of his steno-
graphic school, his latest venture, stating
at the time that he had not made sue
cess of it. His offer was refused, but
The following day the party to whom the
offer was made received a letter from
Smith announcing his departure from the
city and regretting that he had ever hon-
ored 1t with his presence, "as it had ruin
ed him, and if he stald was afraid that
!, would ruin his SOUL" He expressed
his intention of starting life
over in some other place, but
from mis- tone he had small hopes of any
success. The whole tone of the letter is
respondent, and the writer was probably
suffering from a severe case of melan-
cholla when he wrote it.
Mr. Smith was well known in the city,
where he had many friends, VINO will re-
gret sincerely his latest vagary. He was
unusually clever and was capable of max
ing a success in many lines, but seemed
unable to buckle down to any one thing.

gia; therefore, be IL
Resolved, BY the Savannah Board Of
Trade, In special meeting assembled, that
we enter our most vigorous protest against
the passage of the Wnlingham bill by the
Legislature of our state, and call Upon
our immediate members in both houses.
especially, to exhaust every proper and
reasonable resource known to parliament
airy practice TO defeat the Willingham bill;
and,
Resolved, Further, that copies of these
resolutions be forwarded, one EACH to the
governor of Georgia, the president of the
senate, the Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives, the Senator from the First
senatorial district and our representatives
In the lower house.
The dissenting vote was cast by Mr.
Charies II. Saussy, who took the position
the board could not act intelhgentiy with
out copy of the proposed bill. He was
not satisfied 10 ask the Legislature not to
pass a bill he had not read. The other
members We're satisfied with what they
mad read in the newspapers that the bill
was not measure they cared to support
after the report of The committee was
adopted, Mr.. ], P. Williams called at
tention to the bill changing The legal rate
of interest, and also the tax bill which
thought resolutions the proper thing. As
1t had not been intended 70 consider these
measures, however, resolutions were not
drawn up before hand. AS it was de-
sired TO take about the same action the
Cotton Exchange took with reference to
these bills in the forenoon, copies of the
exchange resolutions We're obtained and
adopted. Before the resolution was put
Mr.. Williams advanced number of rea-
sons against the proposed laws.
Mr.. c. w. Howard of the firm of C. w.
Howard & Co. called the attention of the
board to a complaint he said he had made
to the Central Railroad, but without get
ting any announcement that the matter
would be remeded. He said shippers de .
sired more conveniences in getting TO the
lumber and naval stores yards just above
the Ocean Steamship wharyes. The pres
ent arrangement compels wagoners to
take circuitous route in reaching ths
yards, going two miles out of their way
according to Mr.. Howard. He says the
remedy is the opening of road by the
Central, which he stat the officials de-
elined TO do, because it would lessen fire
protection to the wharf properly. Presi-
dent Purse said he had heard of the com
plant before. and thought there was some
merit in 1t. The matter was referred
with the consent of Mr.. Howard to the
Committee on Yards.
