FROM WATER FRONT
sNAGBoAT TUGALOO TAKES HER
TRIAL TRIP IN HARBOR.
PROVES A PERFECT SUCCESS.
SHE WILL SOON DEPART FOR UP
RIVER POINTS TO WORK.

The Completion of the TugalOO An
other Evidence of the Facilitie y
for Steamboat Butlding-Features
of Her ConstructiOn-Mntte of
Interest to shippers and Mariners.
The trial trip around the harbor yes
terday of the new government snag-
boat Tugaloo was witnessed by all The
shipping and other business people
along the water front. They were at
tracted out by the general saluting OF
other craft, which espied the Tugaloo
as she came from the lower end of
the Atlantic Coast Line wharves.
where she was built, proceeded up the
harbor TO the Ocean Steamship
wharves, then turned and locked near
Willink's marine railway.
The completion of the Tugaloo is of
more than passing interest to the ship
ping and business people because OF
the illustration furnished of the abil-
ity to build the best of craft in Sa-
vannah. The boat just finished is prob
ably among the best the government
has of her class, and is certainly the
best bull, at any port where no large
pretensions to shipbuilding are made.
From bow to stern the Tugaloo is con-
structed of the best material, the work
manship is of the finest, and her sue
cessful trip around the harbor DEM
onstrates that she is a success so far
as her propulsion is concerned. The
careful construction of every part
means that she will very probably be
a success in removing snags.
Most of the men who worked on the
Tugaloo were previously employed in
the building of other steamboats, in Sa-
vannah among them being the hand
some steamer Louise for the Southern
Transportation Company. With the
government securing such satisfactory
results ii is now taken for granted
that the cry that skilled labor can
not be had for this class of work
South is not well founded. The steam
boat Louise proved a perfect success,
and the Two States, another boat re-
Gently built here. has also turned cut
an excellent carrier.
Some days ago the Morning News
said that boat building could be de-
veloped into a profitable industry for
Savannah, and that is the general i'm
preston among those interested in the
shipping Ihey assert tnat the Iaclh-
ties are here, and that with proper
business organization, Savannah could
be turning out boats not only for the
use of local lines, but for all the inland
lines in Georgia, Florida and South
Carolina
A description of the Tugaloo appear
ed in the Morning News several times.
One feature of her construction is her
wheel, which is probably the finest On
any craft in the harbor. The spokes
are locust, while the rim is made of
other hard woSls, with colors that
harmonic beautifully. About the boat
is every convenience for the comfort
of officers and crew. Her hull and all
the frame work are iron, which gives
her wonderful strength.
1t is expected the Tugaloo will be
here for few days, after which she
will directly go into commission.

many days. Supporting orders Were

vantage of the dullness to put selling
pressure on all markets. The weather

particularly to corn, but depression
soon followed the selling. December

Amendment Versus Repeal.

The issue with regard to bankruptcy
legislation at the coming session Of Con-
gress seems to lie between the passage
of the Ray amendment to the present
law and the repeal of the law, A few
people are willing to be satisfied with
simply defeating the Ray amendment,
but the general division is between the
position of the New York country bank
ers who declared for the repeal of the
law altogether and the wholesalers of
the larger cities who wish to see the law
retained with it's demonstrated faults
amended.
After the mistake of repe aling the
law of generation ago was realized it
took II years of effort to get new
bankruptcy act passed. To destroy it
now on account of some errors would
be like burning the house down to get
rid of the mice 1t would be especially
fatuous in view of the experience that
should be familiar to every business
man of middle age Amendment of the
faults of the law is an indisputable prop
osition, and the Ray amendment is de-
signed to carry out that plan.
This amendment remedies the more
conspicuous shortcomings of the act, in
GLIDING that peculiar construction by
the courts that if creditor has receiv
ed, prior to a bankruptcy, payments on
account in the regular course of busi-
ness he must return the money in order
to share in the assets for the balance of
the claim. If there are other defects
which the amendment has missed they
should be included in the amendatory
legislation. But Congress should not
lightly destroy what it would probably
take decades to restore. .--Pittsburg Dis
