nsurance Rates.

The Committee on Water Supply
when called upon reported that no
communication had yet been received
from Mr. Lawton. of the Southeastern
Tariff Association, in regard to the
changes in fire insurance rates. The
secretary of the chamber was request
ed to write to Atlanta and endeavor
to find out the result of the investi-
cations.
Col. A c. Taylor, U. S. A., and Mr..
r. M. Larner of Washington, We're
unanimously elected associate mem
bers of the Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. ]. K. Garrett of Garnett, S. c.,
was elected an active member.
At the conclusion of the regular bus
mess of the meeting Mr.. S. Krouskoff
made the remarks alluded to in the
opening of this article and also took
occasion to speak of the great natural
advantages of Chatham county in ar
ricultural possibilities, and other ways.
He was not disposed to think favor
ably of the expenditure of much mon
ey for advertising, but thought that
a good man should be employed to
travel and exploit the attractions of
the section to induce immigration.
A short talk was made just before
adjournment by Mr.. Alex Legley of
BaXley, Ga. Mr.. Legley is interested
in colonizing a large tract of farm
lands near Bexley, and wanted to in
terest members of the Chamber of
Commerce in his plans. He explained
matters and was asked some questions
which he said he would be glad to
answer in private to interested parties.
The chamber took no action in this
matter.

The Cavalry Encampment.

Mr. Foster, chairman of the Enter
tainment Committee, asked that the
chamber allow him to refer certain bills
for preparations of Camp Pulaski, to
the Finance Committee, and the COM
mittee was given power to act in the
matter. 1t was shown that there had
been some expenses not anticipated,
and the expenditures were in excess of
the money appropriated and collected.
A brief explanation was made to the
chamber of the conditions and the work
done at the Fair Grounds, and it was
agreed unanimously that the bringing
of the cavalry to Savannah was well
worth all that it had cost in time and
money. The encampment had been a
great success and had brought a large
number of people here, and the end
certainly made ample recompense for
the expenditures. The fact that there
had been a slight hesitancy on the
part of the powers because they
thought that the camp ground would
not be properly fixed was mentioned
by the president who had undertaken
to guarantee on his own responsibility
that all that was promised would be
done. The presence of Troop c, Sew
enth Regiment, United States Cavalry,
was, he said, a source of considerable
qualification, and this had been done
through the influence of the Chamber
of Commerce.

Trade and Commerce..

The Committee on Trade and Com
merce submitted reports of two meet
ings held since the late gathering of
the Chamber of Commerce. The prin-
cipal feature of these reports was that
portion which referred to communica-
tons with the Ocean Steamship Com
pany, on the matter of patronizing Sa-
vananh merchants. A letter had
been sent to Vice President
Peasants, making protest
against the transferance of pur-
chases from this port to New York.
Mr.. Peasants replied that other con-
ditions being equal-price and quality
preference was invariably given to
Savannah, the home port of the Ocean
Steamship Company. He said that
he knew of no instances where this
policy had been violated. The commit
tee, it was indicated in the report, had
written since receipt of Mr.. Peasants
letter and given the reasons for the
complaint.
The committee had a number of minor
suggestions regarding the advance
ment of local conditions; among them
plan for a cooperative dressmaking
establishment: this in order that the
ladies may get their clothes made at
home. Referred to committee which
will endeavor to interest the dry goods
merchants in the scheme. 1t was sug-
gested by the committee that the news
papers of the city be asked to run GER
tain paragraphs, urging the purchase
of Savannah goods. The suggestion
was made by the chair that there was
hardly a day without just such argu-
ments in the newspapers of the city.

Trading during the early session was noteworthy chiefly for a renewal of yesterdays selling movement for west ern accounts. Chicago taking a leading part. As in the early week the steel se- curities were again conspicuous for their heaviness. both the common stock and the per cent bonds declining to new low levels. Sales of the bonds were very heavy, transactions for the flrst two hours aggregating consider ably more than one half of operations for that period in the bond department. Declines in the list were general at the outset, but the tone soon changed to relative steadiness. At midday the market was almost at a standstill. A rally in no sense proportionate to the early decline soon followed on buying attributed to important local interests, but support was still lacking in the steel issues. the common selling lower in the morning. while the bonds contin- ued to be pressed for sale. The steady tone of the late afternoon was more att tributable to short covering than to any real buying demand. The steel bonds more than regained their loss of the early part of the day.
 The bond market was slightly lower this morning, following the sharp break in United States Steel second 5s. The tone improved, later. but the closing was somewhat irregular. Total sales par value $1,610.000. United States 2s coupon advanced per cent. on the last call. .-

GIFT OF F. W. VANDERBILT.

Another New Dornitory for Yale-Its Location. The Sheffield Scientific school is to have, in due time, another dornitory from Frederick w. Vanderbilt. of New York city. This announcement was tu- thorized yesterday by Professor Rus- sell Chittenden, directors of the school who admitted that Mir. Vanderbilt had
 made the gift to the trustees of the school and that the New York firm of architects, Haight & Co.,, had been no- tifled to draw up plans for the build- ing. The site of the dormitory will be Col | lege street, between Wall and Grove The exact location will be between St Anthony hall, one of the secret society buildings of the school, and Byers hall the new Y. M. c. A. building and social center of the Sheffield school. The prop.
 erty on which the dormitory will stand was purchased by the school sometime ago. One of the deeds which was passed is subject. to a life use, and for that pur- pose it can be readily seen that the new tdormitory may not be erected for some little time, a few years perhaps. The new dorrnitory will be 125 feet in length and it is expected that it will be of the same general style of architecture as the dormitory which MT. Vanderbilt gave to the Sheffield Scientific school 1.-two years ago, which is now nearing scGmpletion. This building stands or Wall street, between College and Tem.
 pie, and will be ready for occupancy next year. It will be the first of the
 dormitories in the Sheffield Scientific
 school.
 The two dormitories which are the
 gifts of Frederick W. Vanderbilt will
 partially enclose two sides of a new
 quadrarglc which is to be built up witl
 Sheffield Scientific school buildings.
 The dorlnitory given a year or so agt
 is in memory of the late Cornelius Van
 derbilt, of New York city, by his broth
 Ter and family. The name of the second
 dormitory by Frederick W. Vanderbilt is not known.

Charged With Having Stolen a Dress
 Suit While Playing in Danbury.
 Manuel Castano, whose stage name is Hugh Doherty and who takes an active part in the play entitled Slaves of the Mines," was arrested yesterday after noon by Detectives Dennehy and Frey on complaint of the Danbury authori- ties, who claimed that while the com- pany was playing in that city some time ago Castano hired a dress suit and when he left town he took it with him. He was arrested just after the matinee and the detectives permitted him to go on with the evening performance, while they watched both the actor and play at the same time.
 About o'clock last evening Captain Bradley telephoned to Chief Wrinn that if Castano would pay $20 and the costs in the case he could be released. This he did and the case was settled.
