STORM STILL H0VERS
OVER CENTRAL FLORIDA.
Slowly Moving NOrthward Toward

Atlantic Coast.
The tropical storm which has for
the last few days been threatening Sa-
vannah, is still lowering over Central
Florida, though its slow movement
northward still continues There is no
longer much likelihood of its shifting
to the westward and passing along the
Gulf coast, and the storm signals
at Mobile have been ordered down.
The following telegram from the
Central Weather Bureau was the last
word received in Savannah concerning
the storm:
Continue northeast storm warnings
at Jacksonville, Savannah, Charleston
and Wilmington. Disturbance central
in Middle Florida peninsula. VIII
move nOrthward near the Atlantic
coast, with probably increasing inten-
sitv."
The late reports last night indicated
that the storm has moved very little
since that hour, though the indications
are that it is coming this way. The
barometer dropped off considerably
here during the day. but late last night
was stationary. The high pressure
area which has been lowering over
this section is giving way, and more
decided developments are expected to-
day.
There is as yet no immediate danger
here. Should the storm increase rap
idly in intensity and begin a more
rapid approach the hurricane signals
will be displayed.

SOUTHERN PINE CO.
WILL RECOVER CLAIM.
Referee MacDOneu Decides Against
Georgia Car Company.

Referee MacDOneu Decides Against
Georgia Car Company.
In a decision rendered yesterday
morning by Referee MacDonell. in the
Georgia Car Company case. it was
held that the Southern Pine Company,
is entitled to recover from the trustee
the value of certain boards sold to
the former before the car company
went into bankruptcy.
The question arose under an appli-
cation by the Savannah Trust Com
pany, as trustee of the car company,
to sell fifty box cars. An intervening
petition was filed by the Southern
Pine Company, setting forth that the
boards used in the making of the cars
had been sold on cash basis to the
company before it's bankruptcy. On
request of the president of the car
company the lumber was turned over
to him with the understanding that it
was not to be used until paid for. The
lumber was used without the knowl-
edge or consent of the Southern Pine
Company.
After the intervening petition was
filed the cars were sold, a sum equal
to the claim of the intervenor being
reserved pending the final judg-
ment in the case by Judge
MacDoneH. The amount involved
was $110, with interest. Cor
don & Elliott represented the inter-
venors, and Lawton & Cunningham

LAST OF CITY HALL
GRANITE BEING LAID.
Limestone Work Will Progress
Much Faster, 1t Is Said.

Limestone Work Will Progress
Much Faster, 1t Is Said.
The last of the granite work on the
new City Hall is now being laid. The
strip of ornamental granite that is now
being laid on the eastern side of the
building marks the top of the first
story and the end of the granite work.
AS soon as this strip is finished around
the building, work on the limestone
viii be started.
The limestone is much easier to cut
and handle than the granite and work
on the next story is expected to pro-
gress much more rapidly. There is a
large quantity of limestone already cut
and placed inside the enclosure about
the new building. AS soon as the
granite work is finished this will at
once be put into place. The lower half
of the first limestone story will be
slower work than that which is to fol-
low above, as it is to be highly orna-
mental. But even this lower half can
be laid more rapidly than the granite.
After the first half story of the
limestone is in place, the building will
go up at a surprisingly rapid rate.
1t is predicted that the building will
be under roof by the first of the con-.
ing year. The steel work for the CEN
trail rotunda is already in place.

ESTILL'S NEWS DEPOT


The removal of Estill's News Depot
from Bull street, near Broughton, to
the corner of Bull and Bryan streets.
because of the demolishing of the old
store occupied by it for many years,
to make room for the National Bank
of Savannah's sky-scraper, brings it
back to the same building, and with
in a few doors. of where it was es-
tablished in June. 1865.
1t was just after the surrender of
the armies of Lee, Johnston and Beau
regard, when Mr.. Estill, who had lost
the use of an arm in the Second Bat
tie OF Cold Harbor, the last fight in
front of Richmond, when Grants
army met with l terrible repulse,
came to Savannah, and in conjunction
with his brother, Col Estill, the vet
eran editor and proprietor of the Morn
ing News, began the business of SELL
ing newspapers, magazines and light
literature at the corner of Bull street
and Bay lane, in the rear of the
United States Custom House, which
at tfsat time was also the postoffice.
The greater part of the news depot's
trade at that time consisted in selling
Northern and local newspapers on the
streets by boys, or serving them to
subscribers. The removal of the post
Office led to several changes in loca-
ton of the news depot, but it was
never away from Bull street.
Next to the celebrated Brentano's
of New York and Paris, Estills News
Depot is the best known place of it's
kind in the world, and in it can be
found an assortment of newspapers
and magazines the like OF which it
would be difficult to find in any other
city. 1t is one of the places of in
terest" to visit in Savannah, and the
favorite resort for all we'll posted
tourists. At Estills News Depot they
can find either their home paper or
the leading papers of their state. and
also supply themselves with light read
ing matter with which to while away
their waiting moments at their no
tells or with which to pass away the
tedium Of railway or steamer travel.
No one who visits Savannah should
omit visit to Estill's News Depot.

GAVEL FROM A HOLLY TREE
OVER BURNS GRAVE
Presented to the st. Andrews Soc
ETY. of Savannah.

ETY. of Savannah.
A pleasant Incident of the October
meeting of the st. Andrews Society
last night was the presentation of a
gavel made from a holly tree which
grew over the grave Of Robert Burns
in st. MichaePs Cemetery in Dunn
fries. Scotland.
For over sixty years the society had
a gavel, the head of which was a part
of the celebrated Bush Aboon Ira
quier" and the handle a part of a
baton of an Edinburgh sergeant-at-
arms, whose expressive &c. R." had
placed many a one in the "Talbooth
O'Midlothian." This gavel was pre-
sented to the society by Mr.. John
Balfour in 1912 and remained in it's
possession until three years ago, when
1t mysteriously disappeared at the
society's annual dinner. Every effort
to restore the lost gavel was unavail-
ing and last spring it was decided to
replace it with another gaveI of his
toric interest and association.
Mr.. L. G. Reid, vice president of the
society, began correspondence with
some friends in Scotland and through
Mr.. Robert tombstone Marshall learn
ed of the cutting down of the holly
trees that grew over Burns grave
Mr.. Marshall corresponded with Mr.
William Aitken of Dumfries. whose
father was for nearly a quarter of a
century caretaker of Burns mausO-
leum and was presented by Mr.. Ait
ken gavel made from the wood of
one of the trees which had been cut
down eighteen years ago.
The gavel was made by Mr.. Aitken and
was presented to Mr.. Marshall. Accom-
panying it was an affidavit on parch-
ment sworn to before a magistrate of
the Royal Burgh of DumfrieS certify
ing to the authenticity of the gavel
and giving a brief history of the tree
from which it was made. The gavel
bears a silver plate with the inscrip-
ton: MADE from the holly tree which
grew over the grave of the poet Rob
ert Burns. Presented by w. A. Aitkin,
Dumfries, Scotland to Robert John
stone Marshall, Savannah, September,
1904"
MIR. Marshall presented the gavel to
the st. Andrews Society last night, to-
gether with Its history on parchment
and framed photograph of Mr.. Ait
kin.
The gift was acknowledged by Presi-
dent w. F. Train and resolutions of
thanks to Mr.. Marshall and Mr.. Reid
were adopted. Mr.. Aitl1in was elected
an honorary member of the society.
Another silver plate will be placed
on the gavel, with the inscription,
