NAVAL STORES FACTORS 81
DENY THE STATEMENT
That Less Receipts of Naval Stores Here Would
Help Prices.

The recent letter sent out by the
Consolidated Naval Stores Company
of Jacksonville. advising all operators
to ship spirits and rosin to Jackson
vile and Fernandina in preference to
Savannah, continues to be the subject
of much comment among the naval
stores factors of this city.
The argument used by the Consoli-
dated is that the less rosin and spirits
sent to Savannah the higher the price
will go. and that as the receipts at
Jacksonville and Fernandina are
bought at Savannah prices a higher
price will be received for these ship
ments also.
Such an argument is an absurdity,
said Mr.. Frank c. Battey discussing
the matter yesterday. This can al
ready be. seen, he said. in the fact
that some of the biggest exporters of
the city haven't bought a barrel of
rosin or of spirits in Savannah in
months. With competition eliminated
at savannah, the open market, of
course, the factors would be forced
to sell at whatever prices they could
get, no matter how low, which means
that there would be a material decline
with the result that all the crop mar

keted at the closed ports. Jacksonville
and Fernandina, would be bought at
this price, no matter how low.
With the bulk of the crop marketed
in Savannah, however, he continued,
the buyers are forced to buy in this
market, and this established competi-
ton and keeps the prices where they
should be. Practically similar state
ments We're made by Messrs. Chestnut
81 O'Neill in a letter which they have
sent to about a thousand producers
throughout the pine belt.
Mr.. Chestnut, in discussing the
matter further yesterday, stated that
there are often private term sales in
Savannah at advances on quotations
and that these sales are of benefit to
the producer who ships to an open
market, but are lost to those who ship
to a closed market for the reason that
the increased price is seldom until aft
er 4 o'clock p. M, when the market
price is made, so that the exporters
can secure all the receipts at Jackson
vile and Fernandina at a less price
for that day.
The matter of educating the pro-
ducers throughout the country on this
question will not only be continued by
the Savannah factors as individuals
but may be taken up by the Chamber
of Commerce as 1t is understood that
1t will be brought to the attention of
that organization, possibly at it's next
meeting.

II was with a party of friends. we

Near this was a basket of consdera-
bic size. but we never learned what 1t
contained. All of our party was pres
ent except one, who was inside the
bungalow when he began. With great
solemnity the magician salaamed three
times, at the same time intoning a
hymn. The trick, as he Informed us,
consisted in vivisecting a Bog, placing
him in the bag and ringinSs him out
alive. The thing was atf1osb incredu-
lous, but it was done to an appear

as with great deXterity he proceeded to
chop up his victim. The head, then
the arms, and the limbs, until there
remained only the trunk. these parts
he placed together in the bag which he
tied. He mumbled some words IN
Hindoo and passed his wand over the
bag In a few moments the child was
standing before us smiling There was
not a scratch on him.
The necromancer salaamed. and be-
fore we knew it he was gone. We sat
there scarcely believing what we had
seen, and were recalled to ourselves
by our friend asking us what was the
matter. He said that he had watched
the entire performance from an upper
window and that he had seen the ma
gician cut up a watermelon. and had
also seen the boy hidden in the basket.
The mystery was explained. The ma
gician had simply hypnotized us. It
was the only explanation of the SEEM
ingly impossible feat. and we would
have believed it was the boy and not
the melon that was cut before our eyes,
had not our friend been so positive"

the very best of spirits when the start
was made. and the good humor kept

laughter and sweet singing woke the
echoes of the woods. The run to the
Isle of Hope was made in good time,
and then the cars made off for Thun-

At the Casino, the party alighted
from the cars and spent an hour or
more in the beautiful pavilion, dancing
to the strains of an excellent band or
