PROSPECTIVE COAL
SUPPLY AND PRICES
Hard Coal mt $s IA Ton and Not Like
~ to Go Higher,


Coal dealers are very uncertain as
to the quantity of this winters coal
supply. Although prices will be cheap
er and the supply greater than last
year, the seasons prices will not be fix
ed until the shipments have COM
menced to move south. a.
The output of the Northern mines il
much greater this year than last and
II no discrimination Is shown against
TINS section and the shipments here are
as large as the demand justifies, the
price of coal will not exceed what il
is bringing at present.
Mr.. d. X. Thomas, of the firm of
y X. Thomas e. Son, said yester-
day that he has been looking for
shipments of coal for several days but
they have not yet arrived and latest
adVices from the coal companies in
dlcate that 1t will be a week OF. ten
days before the movement commences
The entire output of the Northern
mines is being sent to Eastern and
western cities and so far orders from
TINS section he says have been entire
~ neglected. He thinks that the tone
OF the communications received from
the dealers indicates that Savannah
Will, in the end, get all the hard and
soft coal 1t wants.
Regarding prices Mr.. Thomas said
that at present hard coal is selling
at IS per ton and soft coal at $3.50.
II cannot state it as a certainty that
these prices will not be lowered dur
ing the winter" he said, ''but l do
not think they will be increased any.
1t Is only by discrimination against
us on the part of the coal companies
that the supply locally can be made
short and there is little prObahilitv-of
such action. The present prices are
much lower than those of last year,
hard coal bringing then $40, while
soft coal sold for $3.50 and 49,"
Hard coal is now selling in FIVE ton
lots at $3.50 per ton.

NAVAL SCHOOL FOR
SOUTHERN COAST CITY.
Suggested BY a Savannahinn Who
Has Visited One in the West.

Suggested BY a Savannahinn Who
Has Visited One in the West.
The recent. establishment of a private
naval school in the West is looked upon
by the public generally as a matter
of national interest. Munsey's had a
four-page article on the subject in the
June number, and accounts of the
school are now being published in lead
ing foreign journals. To Savannah it
is a matter of special local interest,
as the school is being conducted by
Savannah men, and was attended this
summer by several boys from Georgia
and Florida.
A gentleman of this city who has re-
Gently returned from the school reports
that the session this summer was a
marked success. A great majority of
the cadets and their parents were en-
thusiastic bout the school, and before
the flag was hauled down at the clos
ing ceremonies, formal applications had
commenced to come in for admission
next summer.
Among the distinguished guests this
year were Rear Admiral George Brown,
L. S. n, and Capt. Richmond p. Hob
son of Santiago fame. Both expressed
themselves as astonished at the quality
of the work DONE and warmly congrat-
ulated the instructors upon the results
shown. Capt. Hobson was specially
enthusiastic and would often lead the
spectators in their applause during the
final naval drills. The Captain has
gone regularly on the lecture platform
since resigning from the navy, and is
in great demand in the North and West
at fancy figure. His hearers at Gull
yer were not confined to cadets, but
included large audience of repre-
sentative Western people, cottagers and
visitors from neighboring cities His
lecture was pronounced by many to be
the finest they had ever heard, and by
the school authorities the finest ever
delivered at that institution. This news
may be of interest to politicians, as it
is an unquestioned fact that Capt Hob
son is ambitious for political honors,
and is out for Congress against Mr..
Bankhead in Alabama.
The last few days of school were
given up to sailing and rowing races.
swimming races and track events.
These contests were fought out with
all the zeal of real battles on actual
battlefelds. To the winners were Civ

ASPHALT REPAlRERS
ARE STILL COMING.

Once more 1t is expected that the
asphalt repairers will get to work this
week" Nothing has yet happened to the
bond that the company gave for faith
full performance of it's contract with the
city. and it does not appear likely that
anything will happen. The director of
public works has received a letter
from the asphalt concern in which it
is again said that a force will be in
savannah in a day or two, and that
for various reasons, none of which are
mentioned, the men have been un-
able to get here sooner. 1t is really
believed in the directors office that
the work of repairing the badly dam
aged streets will be begun during the
present week.

OLD SOL is BEATEN
WEATHER MANS FIGURES MAKE
SAVANNAH A SUMMER RESORT.

shows where SavannHhians Have
no Cause to COmpIain-Nights Al
ways Cool.
The summer of 1908 in Savannah will
go on record as one of the coolest in
years and Savannahs claims as a
summer resort are substantiated by
the records of the weather bureau.
Only once during the summer has 1t
been really oppressive, and then Old
Sol only worked over time for two or
three days. The recent hot spell gave
Savannahians a few unpleasant hours
during the day, but no general COM
plant was made because the weather
man had been kind during June and
July. The nights were cool and a
breeze from the south or west was al
ways on tap.
Usually July is the hottest month OF
the year and since the establishment
of the weather bureau in 1871 there
have been twenty-six days in that
month when mercury went to 100 or
over. Only six August days have
gone as high as the century mark.
Yet last month was a trifle hotter
than August, 1902.
This was due to the only really hot
wave of the season. Mercury has not
yet reached 100 during the present
year, and there is little chance of this
happening. Usually September is
very pleasant month, rs degrees being
the mean temperature. The maximum
reached last September was 80 degrees
and the minimum rs degrees
That Savannah does not simply boast,
and that it really has the right to call
itself a summer resort, is shown by
figures furnished by Local Forecaster
Boyer. These figures show. too, that
it is getting cooler every summer.
The following figures show just what
sort of summer Savannahians has en-
loved.
