II is well known railroad men that these are
.'sbovv trains and do not pay. There Is an excess
fare of Sc between New-York and Chicago on these
trains and many people do not care to pay the
extra amount just for speed. It is said that II

brought back 243 of the eXcursionists. Some OF
those she carried out remained over at Havana for

The report that several German army and naval
officers who board had taken extensive

TO REVIVE SOUTH BEACH.
Syndicate Headed by H. H. Rogers to Re-
store Burned Summer Resort.

South Beach on Staten Island is to rise from
It's ashes this year, and NewYorkers are to have
a and up to date seaside resort All the plans
looking TO this end have not yet been perfected
but the project is so far advanced that there is
no doubt of its realization
Back of the scheme is the syndicate, at the head
of which is H H. Rogers, of the Standard Oil
Company. formed to improve Staten Islands
transportation facilities and TO develop it as a
residential section Already the syndicate is in
control of all the various trolley and other roads
on the island, and possesses one-half interest in
the ferry which plies between Whitehall-st., Man
haitian, and St. George. Staten Island.
The resurrection of South Beach is a logical de-
velopment Of the plans of the syndicate. Control
Of about three thousand feet of waterfront has
been obtained which will be thoroughly cleared of
all distractions and which new hotels, dance
halls a theatre, old mills carousels and all the
attractions usually found at summer resorts. will
be erected. 1t is the object of the promoters or
the scheme to make the new beach-which will
probably bear new nam2-a family resort Tree
from all Objectionable features.
The main attraction. however, if plans go not
awry, will be the original Ferris wheel, which is
to be brought from Chicago. The undertaking
entails a large amount of labor and the eXpendl-
ture Of nearly $4,000. The wheel one Of the
chief attractions of the Worlds Fair of 1898. When
