OUR FOREIGN DEBr.
Bosion Herald.

The statement that only very trlv-
lal proportion OF the United States
government bonds are held by indivld-
ual foreign owners Is not surprising
owing TO the privilege OF using bonds
for securing circulating notes and their
use also as security for deposits Of
public money our bonds have n value
In this way In excess OF their value
held merely as an Investment That
fact explains the reason why such a
large proportion Of the outstanding
bonds OF the United States are IN the
control OF the banks, instead Of being
held by individual deposltors.

Austria 10 80. in France TO III, in Italy
to l05, and In Russia to 81,
A study Of the figures relating to
this subject makes the necessity Of e
reduction in ornaments very clear.
When every 1000 men have, practically,
TO support from 80 to 30 men learning
the art Of war, In addition to all other
expenses entailed by civilized govern
ment, II is no wonder II poverty is the
rule. II Is very clear that Mr.. Carne-
gie's statement as to the impossibilIty Of
counteracting the influence Of great
Industrial nation, as long as such a
wasteful system of mlltarism Is MAIN
talned, was perfectly pertinent, But
Germany today blocks the way for dis
armament. Russia and France would
gladly reduce their expenses, when that
can be done safely. Austria and Italy
would most likely follow suit But Ger
many resents the idea Of disarmlng by
mutual agreement Sun, ;he dream OF
Victor Hugo OF United States Of
Europe, and the suggestion Of Mr.. Car
negie Of an Industrial European union,
may yet come true. Great Ideas never
die. Once expressed, they live and be-
come a force In the shaping OF history.

NAVAL STORES EXPORTERS
COMBINE NOT CREDITED.

The naval stores trade is still Won
dering what plans, if any, the export
ers have under way in New York.
Many of the local trade are there, as
stated in the Morning News, and
whether their presence there is a CO.
incidence or from malice afore-
thought" remains to be seen.
Something has been said about a
combine of exporters, but those ia
miliar with the trade well know the
imprObability of such an organization.
Should it be undertaken. however, the
factors would begin exporting and
bring on more trade REORGANIZATION
Much interest is felt as to the working
of the combination, which, it is said,
purposes to start it's operations on Jan.
l. Expectations in some quarters of
counter move by the factors may be
the origin of the numerous rumors now
atioat of further combination to bring
all interests among the trade to advan-
tageous position in operating.
One factor said that if the exporters
combine it win lead to exporting di-
rect by factors.

HELD UNDER WATER
ENGLISH LADS PLAYED IN THE
RIVER AND ONE WAS DROWNED.
HAD BECOME EXHAUSTED.
ARTHUR COOLIDGE HELD DOWN
BY MESS ROOM BOY.

Four Lads From the British Steam
ship Lady Mildred Went in Bath
ing From NVharves of the Ocean
Steamship COmpa an
Apprentice Boy, and Porter Were
TOgether-In Spirit of Fun Porter
Held COOIedge's Head Under Wa
ter-Apprentice Boy Tried to Swim
to the Dock When He Was ReIeas-
ed, but Fell Back Into Water Ex-
hausted-Never Rose Again and
Body Was Found an Hour Later.
Porter Not Placed Under Arrest
and There Will Be No Inquest.
Because his head had been held I'M
der the water until he was almost ex-
hausted Arthur Coolidge, a 17-year-
old apprentice boy of the British steam
ship Lady Mildred, was unable to save
himself, and was drowned at the
wharves of the Ocean Steamship Com
pany early yesterday afternoon.
In a spirit of fun A. Porter, mess
room boy on the same steamer, had
ducked Coolidge, and it was this that
caused the tragic death of the appren-
tice boy. When Porter released his
hold Coolidge bobbed up half exhaust
ed and tried to get to the dock The
water he had swallowed, however,
made him weak, and after making a
single stroke he went down. Not a
sound was made by the drowning lad
as the water covered him, and it was
not until an hour afterwards that his
body was recovered.
Four of the lads from the steamer
went into. the water together for some
sport. j. w. Burns and w. Hodgerson,
both apprentice boys, were the other
two. The ship is lying in berth No.
of the companys slip and Burns and
Hodgerson swan across to the New
York side of the slip. Coolidge and
the mess boy remained around the
steamer and played in the water for
some little while. 1t finally occurred
to Porter that it would be great sport
to duck his companion, and he did so.
1t is believed that Coolidge was
caught in an eddy and sucked down
to his death.
The drowning was reported at police
headquarters, but no arrests were
made. Porter had made no effort to
get away, and an investigation showed
that he had not intended to drown the
apprentice boy. About an hour after
Coolidge went down his body was re-
covered and Coroner Keller was noti-
fed. After learning the facts in the
case the coroner decided that no in
quest was necessary.
The remains were turned over to
Fox & Weeks to be prepared for burial
and the funeral will take place this
afternoon. The lad was a native of
England, but the interment will be in
Laurel Grove Cemetery. He was con-
sidered bright boy, and well thought
of by those on the steamship. The
Lady Mildred is being loaded with cot
ton seed meal cakes and has been in
port several days. The officers and
crew of the steamer will attend the
funeral this afternoon.

KNIGHTS ENTERTAINED
GRAND CHANCELLOR.
Visitors Pleased with Water Works
and Air Lift.


Grand Chancellor F. NJ Gnmer-
camp. official head of the knights of
Pythias in Georgia, arrived in Savan-
nah yesterday from Columbus and is
being informally entertained by the
officers and members of the seven local
lodges of the order. The puFport of his
visit is the examination of the books
of the Grand Keeper of Records and
Seals, the occasion being the regular
annual examination.
The committee will conduct the eX
animation to-day. The committee is
composed of two other gentlemen, the
Grand Chancellor being, ex-officio, a
member. Mr. L. ]. Abbot of Columbus,
accompanied the Grand Chancellor to
Savannah, both arriving yesterday
morning. Together with Mr.. John w.
Shivers of Amercus, who arrived last
night, they will audit the accounts Of
the Grand Keeper, Mr.. w. 7. Leopold,
to-day.
The Grand Chancellor and Mr.. Shiv-
ers were entertained yesterday with a
carriage ride about the city. and
supper at Bannon Lodge last evening.
The party visited the Ocean Steamship
Company's wharVes and the new
WdIeENOlkS. MT. SuluneTCdtHp, VINO
is a member of the City Council of Co
lumbus, was much interested in the
latter place. He inspected the works
and the air lift, and was much pleased
with the plant.
The Introduction of new system OF
waterworks, or al least the installation
of new methods and new machinery in
the plant in their city, made the mat
ter of especial interest to the visitors.
Mr. SUNNI ercamp said yesterday that
as a result of his visit he had many
valuable suggestions to make to the
Columbus Council
This morning he will meet Chairman
Bacon and other members of the
Water Commission. The proposed inn
prOvements in the system in Columbus
will be discussed, and no doubt much
good will result from the conference.
The Grand Chancellor has often visit
ed Savannah before. He is very much
pleased with the city, and delighted
with the hospitality of his fellow
knights.
At the supper last evening at Thun-
derbolt, those present, besides the
guests of honor, were the chancellor
commanders of the several local lodges
and the deputy grand chancellor for
the local lodges, Mr.. s. L. Lazaron.
The chancellor commanders are:
Messrs. George T. Cam, r. E. Banks,
J. H. Murken, George w. Allen, H. L.

SUWANEE SPRINGS FIRE.
HOsteIry Destroyed, but Guests win
Be Cared for During Winter.

DS CaHcu W1nIer.
The first authoritative statement
concerning the recent disastrous fire at
Suwanee Springs, Fla, was received
yesterday by Mr.. r. j. Dinkens of the
Andrew Hanley Company. Though
the fire occurred on Friday, it has been
impossible to obtain any accurate ac-
counts of the conflagration.
Mr.. Dinkens is informed that the
main hotel was entirely destroyed.
This structure was built at cost of
$4,000, and was insured for $4,000. 1t
will be rebuilt at once. The famous
bottling plant was not injured by the
fire, and the cottages and bath houses
also escaped the flames.
1t is the purpose of the management
to continue the operation of the bot
Ting works, and to care for guests
during the winter. Eighteen cottages
will be used for quartering the guests
until the new hotel is built. The con-
struction of the new hostelry will be
begun at once, and will be completed
in the spring.

PREACHED ON lMPURITY.
Rev. Father spIinter's Sermon al
st. Patrick's Mission.

81
The first sermon for men was de-
livered by Father Splinter last night
at the mission services being held at
st. Patrick's Church. The services
were largely attended by men from
the three parishes in the city.
After the rosary had been said and
a short lecture delivered upon the use
and benefit of it by Father O'CoHnor,
Father Splinter announced that mass
would be said every morning of the
present week at and S o'clock and
services for men would be held at
o'clock evenings. He announced that
he expected the male members of the
three parishes to attend the evening
services regularly and bring their
Protestant friends with them, if they
wished, as nothing would be said to
insult them, and he expected as many
as possible to attend one of the morn
ing masses.
His sermon on 'Impurity' was a
gem, and gave food for thought to
both the young and old men who
heard him. Impurity of men causes,
he said, more unhappiness, wrecks
more homes, damns more souls and is
fraught with more direful consequences
than any other evil, and while vim
dictiveness and hatefulness are bad
enough, they bear no comparison. The
Great and Eternal God Himself damn
ed this evil,'' he said, land l have no
apologies to make to any one here for
anything / may say against it, 1t
is the habit of some, Father Splinter
said, to look down on and despise fall
en- woman, but no woman ever fell
whose fall was not due to the villatny
of man and his seductive influence,
and he hurled his curse on the wretch
who had been guilty of such crime.
There are bad women, he said, but
they are bad because some man has
taken them from their homes and nat
ural protectors, absorbed their identity
in marriage and deserted them, leaV-
ing them alone in the world and tast-
ing the bitterness of deceit that rankles
in their heart and makes them defy
the laws of God and man.
Father Splinter told his hearers that
they must reform themselves before
they can reform society. There is a
limit to Gods mercy, he said, and
when that limit is reached grace re-
tires. Follow the Golden Rule" he
admonished; do unto others as you
wish them to do unto YOU and you
will not do wrong. Never have l seen
the time" he said, in emphasizing the
limits of Gods mercy that God did
not strike some one dead during the
missions-explain it as you will"
In bringing what he had said home
to his hearers he doubted not that If
one who heard him found one dear to
him in a compromising position with
another man, and had a pistol in his
pocket he would shoot him through
the heart; "and l doubt not" he said,
that this would be the best means to
make use of religion, not provide the
means to stay iniquity.''
Benediction was held Immediately
after the sermon.

Will Receive Presentnents of Grand
Jury Tomorrow Afternoon.
The largest amount of business in
the courts this week will be in the
City Court, though the reception of the
general presentments of the grand jury
and the adjournment of the Superior
Court tomorrow will be the matters
of greatest importance.
The grand jury will meet this after
noon for the purpose of receiving the
reports of the several committees, for
the purpose of embodying them in the
general presentments of that body. No
subpoenas have been issued, and it is
probable that no investigation will be
made by that body.

convene after a recess of a week for
the purpose of receiving the general
presentments of the grand jury and
adjourning for the term. The law re-
quires that the court adjourn at least
five days before the day set for the be-
ginning of the next term, Tuesday be-
ing just five days before the first Mon
day in December on which date the
court convenes for the December term.
Judge Barrow returned TO Savannah
yesterday from Oglethorpe county,.
where he has been holding court for
the past week for Judge Horace NJ.
Holden. As soon as the present grand
jury is dismissed, Judge Barrow will
draw the grand jurors for the Decem-
Der term.
There is a heavy calendar in the City
Court. Besides a number of civil cases,
some of which are interesting damage
suits and others somewhat sensational.
there will be many criminal matters,
and motions and demurrers to be ar
gued. The court will take a recess on
wednesday afternoon until Friday
morning at 10 O'Clock, Thursday being
thanksgiving. and no business being
set for that day.

POLICE WERE DECEIVED.
Steward on Ship MisIed Officers by
Calling Negro Woman a Lady.

= -
Because a steward on the steamship
Nacoochee of the Ocean Steamship
Company's line called a negro woman
LADY at police headquarters yester-
day morning member of the depart
ment was misled and made to work
for half an hour on a case that he
dropped in short order wher he ascer-
tanned the facts.
The steward was greatly worried
when he entered the office of the desk
sergeant to lodge his complaint and
request the officers to assist him. He
stated that when the vessel arrived
at her dock one of the lady passengers
had gotten off with some baggage that
did not belong to her The steward
was certain that she had simply made
a mistake, and that she was "a per-
feet lady" He had heard some per-
sons recommend a house to her as a
good boarding place.
The police went through the direc-
tory, but could only find place in the
Tenderloin. They figured it out that
the steward was just little off in his
judgment and an officer accompanied
him to the house in question. 1t was
ascertained that there had been no new
arrivals and for the first time the stew
ard thought to give a description of
the person he had been calling lady"
1t then developed that she was a ne
gro woman and had probably gone to
negro lodging house on the West
Side. The officer who had wasted his
time was very much put out and ad-
vised the steward to distinguish
blacks from whites in all reports that
he makes at police headquarters in
the future. The police abandoned the
hunt just so soon as they discovered
the complexion of the female for whom
the steward was looking.
