Realty improvement Company Pre-
pairing to Build ON GammeII Tract
The improvement of the Gammen
tract, which extends from Waldburg
street to Anderson, just east of East
Broad street, will probably begin by
June l, and negotiations in that direc-
ton are now on.
Most of the tract is owned by the
Realty improvement and Trust Com
pany of which j. Ferris Cam, Esq, is
president. 1t is the purpose of the
company to build houses for home
seekers, and with that end in view sew
eral loans have already been made to
persons desiring to build residences.
A meeting of the directors of the
company was held yesterday and three
loans were agreed upon. 1t is expect
ed that one or two of the persons who
desire to have their own homes will be-
gin building during the present month.
The improvement of the Gammell tract
will mean much for the southeastern
section of the city, the land being the
only unimproved tract of any size with
in the old city limits. Three two-story
frame houses have just been complet-
ed on Park avenue and East Broad
streets and Mr.. Fred Vessels, Jr., is
building a handsome home on the
southeast corner of East Broad and
Bolton streets.

CURFEW FOR SAVANNAH.
Council May BE Asked TO Pass Ordi-
nance for such n Law.

Council May BE Asked TO Pass Ordi-
nance for Such n Law.
In yesterdays Morning News was
printed a dispatch from Atlanta stat
ing that the evangelical ministers of
that city will to-day present to City
Council a petition for a curfew ordi-
nance requiring that all children I'M
der 16 years old be in doors at and
after o'clock at night.
The account of the requested ordi-
nance was read with interest by many
Savannahians. among them the ma
jority of the ministers of this city.
Gany of these expressed the view that
a similar ordinance for Savannah
would be an excellent thing, in fact
Rev. j. A. Smith sa@d that not only
was he most heartily in favor of such
law in Savannah, but that he and
several other ministers had discussed
the matter, and it was possible that
if the Atlanta ordinance was passed
petition Tor similar ordinance will be
sent to Savannah's Council.
Rev. Mr.. Smith thinks, however, and
so do the other ministers, that the
proper hour for curfew law in Sa-
vannah is 9 O'Clock. 1T would be
good thlng Tor savannah, SAID Kew.
Dr. Jordan, but . o'clock is the proper
hour, not s."
It's a good thing anywhere in the
wide world said Rev. Bascom
Anthony, 'if the daddies won't take
proper care of their children the public
ought to-" Rev. P. H. Duncan of the
Christian Church also is most heartily
in favor of such an ordinance. 1t
worked well in Covington, Ky, he said,
and ought to work we'll anywhere.
Further he said that it ought to meet
the approval of parents because it
would put a restraint on children that
parents themselves are unable in some
cases to exercise.
Mayor Myers was asked about a cur
few law, but he has never given such a
measure favorable consideration. He
said that he is not an advocate of
such measure. as he believes that the
parents of boys are best qualified to
look after them

WELL FOR LEGISLATURE.
New Name Suggested as n Union
Club Probability.

Club Probability.
Leaders of the Union Club still de-
cline to discuss their prospective tim
Der for the Legislature. When asked
who they will put up to represent
Chatham county, they say their ticket
will be a marvel of legislative ability,
sterling worth and valuable accom-
plishments.
1t is, in fact, to the leaders of the
Citizens Club that one has to apply
for talk about legislative. The leaders
of the other faction are determined not
TO talk until they are good and ready,
when. with their candidates we'll
groomed and ready for the fray. they
are able to make their announcements.
Citizens Club leaders declare that they
have grape vines" that keep them we'll
posted upon what is doing in the camp
of the enemy, and they are never 10th
to say who the Union people will put
up.
From one of the most Respondent
lights of the Citizens faction there en-
anated the information yesterday that
Mr.. Arthur L. We'll will be nominated
by the Union Club to make the race
for the Legislature. From the same
quarter was secured the information
that it is almost a positive fact that
President w. P. LaRoche of the Union
Club will be a candidate. Then Mr.
Louis Blase is spoken of as a candi-
date representing the labor unions.
The honor is one that Mr.. Blase and
doubtless, any others of those named
would appreciate, but it remains to be
seen whether he will receive the NOM
fnation. Mr.. T. H. Mcmillan is said
to be one of those to be named. but
it remains to be seen how the situa-
ton will shape itself.

TO CONSIDER SAVANNAH.
President Elliott of the Coast Line
Made This Promise.


Made This Promise.
The establishment of headquarters
by the Atlantic Coast Line in Savan-
nah is still a question. 1t has not
been decided, so far as known, where
the headquarters will be, and Savan-
nah probably has as good or a better
chance than any other city. At all
events it has the satisfaction that may
be won from the assurance of Presi-
dent Erwin of the Plant System that
there will be absolutely no diminution
in the Office forces employed in Savan-
nah by the Plant System when the
Coast Line shall have absorbed the
property.
Mayor Myers, who addressed a let
ter to President w. G. Elliott of the
Atlantic Coast Line, urging the claims
of Savannah for the headquarters of
the consolidated system, has received
an acknowledgement. which states
that the invitation from Savannah
will be carefully considered before
decision is rea ched as to the general
headquarters of the company.
President ]. P. Williams of the Sa-
vannah Cotton Exchange has the mat
ter of the headquarters in hand and
will do all he may be able with the
officials of the Coast Line to induce
them to decide in favor of this city.
The meetings of the boards of direc-
tors of the Plant System and of the
Coast Line are to be held on May II
the sale of the Plant property to the
Coast Line. 1t is possible that some
thing may then be done about the gen
eral Headquarters
