FELT by THE EXPORTERS.
buying Up of Cotton by the Southern
Mills.


The effects of the increased demand for
cotton and the absorption of practically
all the interior offerings by Southern
mills, is being felt by exporters in Sa-
vannah and elsewhere. The action of mill
men in directing their buyers to lay in a
years supply at shipside prices came rath-
er unexpected to many, and has caused
exporters to act quickly in an effort to
remedy matters. 1t is claimed that buy
ers find it rather difficult to compete with
the prices the mills are willing to pay.
The concerted action of the mills in
Georgia, South Carolina and other states
to buy in all the offerings is understood
to be a firm belief on their part that the
price of cotton is likely to advance in the
near future. Moreover the early offerings
are said TO be clean, free from lint, and
such as the mills are glad to take at the
prevailing prices. The present condition of
the dry goods market, and the indications
which point to an early Improvement, are
also said to have something to do with
the action of mill men.
In discussing the matter yesterday a
factor said he thought the mill men were
acting wisely in entering the market early.
II is his opinion that they can now buy
good midding for the price middling may
command two weeks hence. To what eX-
tent the reported absorption of the inte-
rior cotton will affect the exporters is not
known This doubtless depends upon the
freight room which they have engaged,
and the contracts which have been en-
tered into for September delivery

Transportation TO Dewey CeIebra-
tiOn Split Between Two Lines.

The German Volunteers decided last
night that they would leave Savannah for
the Dewey celebration in New York next
Tuesday, making the trip over the Flor
ida Central and Peninsular Railroad. This
breaks the carriage of the two local COM
pauies that will participate in the parade
between the two initial lines, the Cadets
having decided that they would go over
the Plant System
The Germans will leave the city one
day ahead of the Cadets, who will follow
on Wednesday. The former company will
carry about ffty-six men and two Off
GERS, that number having now signiied
their definite intention of making the trip.
The Germans will be lodged during their
stay with the other Georgia commands,
in the armory of the Fourteenth Regi-
ment, in Brooklyn. While the armory Is
said TO be spacious and convenient 1t is
many weary mile from the point where
the lire of march will be taken up, and
wisdom dictates that the soldiery shall
adopt the faithful trolley car as a means
OF locomotion, rather than depend upon
their legs. 1t is proba bic that they will.
BESIDES the Germans, the Florida Cen
tral and Peninsular viii. carry four COM
panies from Florida. The Germans were
anxious to make a somewhat longer trip
than would have been possible had they
left the city on Wednesday, because they
wanted to see something of the metropolis
as wei as of Dewey, and hence decided
that they would antedate the time of de-
parture adopted by the Cadets and the
other commands in the state by one day.
The contingent that VIII be carried on
the Plant System will leave Savannah
about noon Wednesday Besides the Ca
diets, 1t will embrace the Brunswick Rife
men, the Waycross Rifles, the Thomasville
Guards and the Fourth Regiment Band,
from Albany The train viii. move in two
sections and the Plant System announces
its intention of trying for a record time

UP AMID SNOW AND ICE.
DIR. Grahams Vacation in the Far
NOrthNYast.


While other members of Council have
been sweltering under the tropic heat of
the last several weeks, Alderman Graham
has been seeking rest and recreation in
the mountains of the far Northwest, hunt
ing big game in the Cascade mountains
of British Columbia. In a letter to a
friend here DR.. Graham states that his
hunting was much interfered with by the
heavy snowstorms during the latter part
of August and the early part of Septem-
Der.
DR.. Graham declares the Cascade noun
taius to be the finest hunting and the
finest scenery in North America. The
mountains are filed with mountain sheep
and goats, deer and caribou, and grizzly,
black and cinnamon bear are to be found.
IF one leaves out the Jungfrau and the
Matterhorn," says DR.. Graham, "Switz-
erland has nothing more sublime. Even
including these two, the Cascades sur
pass Switzerland in wildness and their
great stretch of rugged grandeur with
great blue lakes that the Indian, the wild
goose and the duck, the sportsman and
the miner and the game only know, while
the glaciers are many and grand"
DR.. Graham states that he left Mr.. A.
Minis with his guide in camp on the north
fork of the Bridge river, tributary of the
Fraser Mr.. Minis expects to remain an
other month, going into the Caribou noun
tains. Dr. and Mrs. Graham will leave
for New York this week on their way to
Savannah. Mrs. Graham, who has been
slightly i'll, but is now much improved,
visited Vancouver and Victoria while DR..
Graham was on his hunting trips.

ship Roanoke, which re cached here six

brings the first story of the death of
several New Workers, members of an
Alaska prospecting company.
The dead are: Mr. and Mrs Emil

washed on the beach at ST. Michael

turned steamer and a scow loaded with
machinery, which represents the as
sets of the company. Two survivors
are John Becker and Theo Diederick.
The Roanoke had aboard according
to her owners, drafts and dust from
Cape Nome amounting to 81, 500 600. The
principal rortion of this is represented
by drafts held by John Brynteson, ia
fet Linderberg, p. H. Anderson and c.
w. A. Killman, four of the original To-
Gators of the camp. There We're fully
200 others on board with dust valued al
from $500 to $4,000 each, a large portion
of the same being beach dust.

adjoining towns of Jaro and Molo with
1000 men, consisting of the Eighteenth
and Twenty-siXth regiments, two bat
talions of the Nineteenth regiment,
detachment of the Sixth regiment and
a battery of the Sixth artillery. The
insurgent force is now supposed to be

many more unarmed. Their lines are
about 80 yards from Jaro, which is oc-
cupied by the Twenty-sixth regiment.
The insurgents are supposed to have
five smooth-bore cannon. For long
time past they have been building
trenches between Jaro and their strong
hold, Santa Barbara, eight miles north.
