Five dredges will be digging in the
Savannah river when No. IA resumes
her place tomorrow. The work of
deepening the channel is moving along
satisfactorily, and no delays of con-
sequence arc being encountered.
General Manager. c. c. Ely of P
Sanford Ross 81 Co., regards the work
done SO far is moving along well
enough. The dredges have been at
work about three months. The At
lantic and Pacific Dredging Company,
which is working from Fort Jackson
to the upper limits of the harbor, has
about twenty-one months to finish it's
contract. P. Sanford Ross & Co. has
little over nineteen months to finish.
1t is said that if no serious obstacles
are encountered the good starts made
Will enable both companies to COM
plete their contracts in the time al
lowed them.
So far no difficult surface has been
encountered by the dredges. Between
Bull and Abercorn streets it is said
hard sand and rock bottom has been
found more than at other points in
the river. Clay has also been re-
moved from this section Above and
below, however, soft sand bottom
makes it possible for the dredging TO
he done without great resistance.

MARKET FALLS OFF.

Florida Times-Union: The straw
berry market collapsed yesterday, and
the prices are now so low that it will
not pay to ship from Florida. The
total collapse of the market so far as
Florida is concerned, is due to the early
shipments from the North Carolina
section. The berries have commenced
10 move from that section in carload
lots, and there will be no further de-
mand for the Florida berries. Yester-
day there were loaded several car
loads at Starke and Lawtey, but it is
understood that they will never be
shipped as the refrigerator car agents
say that to ship them would be folly
and that they will not bring enough
to pay for the freight charges. While
the farmers have not realized much
from the crop this year. there have
been more berries shipped than there
were last. The number of refrigerator
carloads this year was 102, as COM
pared with 70 last year.

WOMAN SAVES EXPRESS TRAIN
With Lamp She Gives Warning O
Danger.

SPOKANE-Mrs. A. Mc1lvain, liv-
ing in Minnehaha Park is receiving
CONGRATULATIONS from railroad men and
others for her noble deed in prevent
ing a serious railroad accident, from
the Great Northern tracks, which con-
meet Hillyard with Spokane. The
grade between the two places is a very
heavy one, and after leaving Hillyard
the train. despite the fact that the
brakes are applied, always gains
momentum, the passenger trains as
rule coming down at thirty mile an
hour clip.
About dusk Mrs. McIlvain discover
ed that a telegraph pole had fallen
across the tracks. She had no IA
cilities for communicating with the
company at Hillyard. The time when
the express would pass was near at
hand. Realizing the danger and
knowing that she must act promptly
she picked up the lighted lamp and
made up the road in the direction of
Hillyard and had gone at least 200
yards when the bright headlight Of
locomotive became visible around the
curve.
The engineers quick eye saw the
woman holding the lamp high above
her head. He reversed his engine and
came to a stop as he neared the figure.
He soon learned the story of the
woman with the lamp. A brakeman
removed the obstruction, which was
done without the loss of much time.
The engine men and trainmen were
very grateful to Mrs. McIlvain, who
has modestly refrained from talking
about the affair to anyone.
