READY FOR SUMMER TRAVEL.
Southern Railway TO Issue Directory
of Resorts,

Though the hot weather has hardly be-
gun many Savannahians are already
considering the matter of where to spend
the summer, and numerous inquiries at
the railroad offices are the result. Mr..
James Freeman, city ticket and passen-
ger agent of the Southern, stated yester-
day that the outlook is that travel over
his line will be heavier this year than
during any previous season. The busi-
ness has steadily increased from year to
year, he said, but this viii certainly be
the banner year-that is, if inquiries count
for anything.
Most of these inquiries, he said, are
made by those that expect to go to North
Carolina resorts, particularly those of
the western part of the state, including
the Sapphire country.
1--WE have been expecting a heavy
travel" said Mr.. Freeman, land conse-
quently are prepared for it, we wiH not
only have a through train direct to Ashe-
vile, but will make connections with all
of the branch lines along the road. In
addition we will receive, shortly for dis
tribution a handsome illustrated directory
of all the resorts in our territory, with
a complete list of hotels and boarding
houses, together with their rates. Such
a book has been issued each year by the
road, but this year it will be more COM
plete and handsomer than ever before.
Mr.. ]. NJ. Barr, vice president and gen.
eral manager of the Seaboard Air Line,
and the party that accompanied him on
an inspection of the terminals yesterday.
will leave this morning for Columbia.

THE wILLIAMS-O'NEIL CASE.
The Proposition of DR.. o'Neil to
Compromise.

The Proposition of DIR. o'Neil to
Compromise.
Editor Morning News: The interview
with DR.. O'Neil, published yesterday
morning, requires a word of explanation.
After the attachment had been sued out
against DR.. O'Neil and the garnishments
served, Col. A. r. Lawton, representing
DR.. ONeil, called upon me, expressed a
wish to compromise the case, and in
quired If we were willing to give and
take in the matter, and replied in the
affirmative.
Next, Mr.. T. NJ Cunningham, Jr, ap-
preached me and offered to pay a GER
tain amount in cash in behalf of DIR.
O'Neil and also to comply with certain
other portions OF the contract which DR..
Williams alleged DR.. OHeil had broken.
This being refused and counter offer
having been made, Mr.. Henry Cunning
ham called on me with an offer to pay
SIPS in cash and to comply with the terms
of the contract by the delivery Of certain
articles at Savannah.
AS DR.. Williams insisted that the
articles be delivered according to
contract at Richmond, and as
we could not agree upon the cash pay
nnent, the settlement fell through. 1t will
be seen from the above that DR.. O'Neil's
statement that he does not owe DR.. VIII
lians a cent will admit of some qualih-
cation, in as much as he has manifested,
through his attorneys, considerable anxi-
ETY. to settle his indebtedness to DR.. VIII
liams and compromise the case.

Mr. Myers can easily explain why the

CASINOS MISUNDERSTANDING
Threatening Weather Did Not Keep
Crowds From Thunderbolt.

Crowds From Thunderbolt.
The handsome Casino of the Savannah,
Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope Railway
Company was formally opened yesterday
afternoon and last night. with concert
by the Casino orchestra. Despite the
threatening weather the opening was a
most suspicious one, and a large crowd
had gathered when General Manager Lu-
clan II. McIntire raised his hand as a
signal for the orchestra to play The
Star Spangled Banner"
Many prominent people inspected the
Casino during the afternoon and evening,
and it is the intention of the management
to cater to the better class OF people. No
Objectionable characters will be permitted
in the building or on the grounds, and It
is proposed to make the place family
resort.
Mr.. McIntire has been working hard tor
the last few days getting things in shape
for the opening and there was not
hitch in the programme. The building was
well lighted at night, although the arc
lights have not yet been put in Dosition
on the grounds. A special switch hoard
will be used in illuminating the building
and grounds, and a wire will be run
directly from the power house--a distance
of some four miles.
Sacred concerts will be given this aft
ernoon and evening, and Mr.. McIntire
has made arrangements to handle large
crowds and to look after the comforts OF
his patrons. The vaudeville company will
arrive tomorrow and the first perform
ance on the new stage wild be given in
the evening. The curtain will go up at
$50 o'clock. and after the performance the
spacious hall will be cleared for dane
ing. Performances will be given by the
Casino Company under the direction OF
Manager L. w. Nelson, every afternoon
and evening.
The wide piazzas contain rocking chairs
to enjoy the salt breezes. and an excellent
view of the river is commanded. Ferns
are scattered throughout the building
and evergreens have been planted on the
grounds. A tall fern is in place on either
side of the wide stage. All of the scenery
| has been painted, and is in shape, and
| all that is now needed is the performers.
The artesian well sets in motion an old
| fashioned and picturesque overshot wa.
| ter wheel and in this way water is pump
ed into the building and in the pipes over
the grounds. No expense was spared IN
making the place attractive and comforta-
! BILE. Light lunches and soft drinks will
| be served in the building and cigars ano
| tobacco can also be obtained. The rail-
| way company's Casino has added to Sa.
vannah, and to the beauty Of her suburb
| ThunderboH.

This has doubtless called for the expen-
dlture of considerable money for rights

DER the roadway is only half a mile from
Forty-second street, so that the place is
not so far distant from the city as to
make lands cheap.
Pending the completion of the tunnel

no interruption of traffic. Much of the
