MORE TOURISTS THAN
EVER BEFORE.
Is Report of w. H. Lenhy, Just Back
From Florida.

from FIOr10as
Mr.. w. H. Leahy, division passenger
agent of the Atlantic Coast Line, with
Headquarters in this city, but who
for the last several weeks has been
in Jacksonville working the north
bound tourist business, has returned
to Savannah and in all probability will
not return to Florida to assist in any
further work in connection with the
tourists this season.
Mr.. Leahy confirms the statements
that have been made from time to
time during the winter that this tour
list season as a whole has been the
best that the Southern resorts have
ever known. and this Is true not only
coast, as we'll. With Mr.. w. J. Craig,
general passenger agent of the Allan
tic Coast Line, Mr.. Leahy recently
made tour of almost the whole of
Florida, and found that though the
season was then we'll advanced, in
many places it was impossible to Sc
cure hotel accommodation.
Despite the number of through trains
that the Atlantic Coast Line has been
operating out of Florida, so great was
the demand for accommodations a short
time ago that extra equipment had
to be added to the trains. Large
numbers of tourists are still in Flor
ida, Mr.. Leahy. states, though the
travel has now reached a stage where
it can be handled by the roads with
the regular equipment.

der his father, Capt. Samuel Daniels
on the pilot boat Pet, No. 1. He was
made 9-foot branch pilot in 1857 and
received a 12-foot branch in
1853. At the outbreak of the
Civil War he enlisted with
the Republican Blues, First Georgia
Volunteer Regiment. After three
months he was transferred to the En-
sineer Corps and placed on duty in
the blockade service. He served be-
tween Savannah and Nassau until the
end of the war.
When peace was declared Capt.
Daniels re-entered the pilotage as a
16-foot branch pilot and served for
eighteen months before he was given
a full branch. He served on the John
r. Wilder, the Sprite and the Stoddard
and is now on the ]. H. Estill.
Capt. Daniels took part in the first
Georgia between the Union and Con-
federate forces. The engagement was
on Warsaw Island, between a battery
garrisoned by the Republican Blues
and the United States gunboat Month
cello. The gunboat was endeavoring to
set fire to a schooner which had gone
ashore on Warsaw Island loaded with
supplies for the Confederate army. The
guns from the battery soon drove the

loaded and the schooner f1oated.
During the cholera on Tybee Island
in 1865, when it became necessary for
volunteers to do patrol duty to pre-
vent cholera patients from escaping
from the island, Capt. Daniels, with
Capt. ]. B. Loane, volunteered their
services, and were on duty in a tug
boat for five weeks. Capt. Daniels
talks Interestingly of his experiences
during that time. OF the 4S3 Union
soldiers confined on the island all died
with the dreaded disease, with the ex-
ception of about 100.
In 1860, before he enlisted in the
army, Capt. Daniels married Miss Sc
line Worthington and has five sons
w. T., Jr., ]. w. and John Daniels
who are full branch pilots, and two
sons, Henry C. and E. c. Daniels, who
are past apprentices.
Capt. Daniels declares that it his in
tention to die in harness. His health
is as good to-day, he says, as it was
twenty years ago.

legged trespassers by the government
to recover the value of the gum and
turpentine. This case was vigorously
fought. The grounds set up by Wood
burn & Co. were two. They claimed
that they had leased two tracts of land
from which they had bled the trees,
and believed that those from whom
they leased had a perfect title to the
land.e
The two other pieces of ground, on
which it was alleged they had tres
passed were government property, but
the tracts had never been surveyed
and WOODBURY. G. Co. claimed that
even if they were trespassers they
trespassed innocently.
The point. in the present case devel-
oped when it was found that the tres
passers themselves were insolvent, and
that the government could not recover
from them. In order to cover the loss
action was brought against the par
ties to whom the consignmentS of the
gum and the crude turpentine had
been made, and from these the govern
ment now seeks to recover.
Less Than $4,000.
The amount involved in the Southern
Naval Stores Company is less than 81
900 and that involved in the other cases
is practically the same amount. Ihe
money part of the case is thus very
small.
The claim set up by the defendant
company on which the strongest fight
is being made, is that it cannot be
held responsible for the wrong doing
of those from whom it innocently
purchased. Even though the Wood
burn Company trespassed on govern
ment lands to secure the turpentine,
this illegal action, they claim, cannot
be laid at the doors of the factors,
and they should not, they assert, be
compelled 10 refund to the government
the money lost through the trespass.
Opinion by Judge Speer.
The feature of the trial yesterday
was an opinion rendered by Judge
Speer after opposing counsel had
fought vigorously over the admittanee
of certain testimony.
The question came up when counsel
for the defendant asked witness, one
of the party held to be one of the
wilful trespassers on government land
to secure the turpentine, If there was
any way that the factor concerned

ANOTHER HOTEL
MUCH NEEDED
SAVANNAH'S POPULARITY
MAKES ADDITIONAL HOTEL FACIL-
tiles NECESSARY.

Savannah the Most Attractive City
An the south-PrOmises to be the
Most Popular Tourist Point In the
Country - Splendid Climate and
Natural Beauty Not Equaled by
Any Resort in FlOrida-EurOpeau
Plan Hotel Is what Is Required.
By JOHN ID. CARSWELL.
The necessity for more ample hotel
accommodations in Savannah is so OBJ
vious that it should not require any
argument to convice one of the fact.
There are now, substantially. only
three hotels here, the last one built be-
ing the De Soto. At the time the De
Soto was built, the demand for a hotel
Of this kind was so great that the cit
liens of Savannah, by their own eff
forts, without any outside assistance,
raised the necessary money to build
this fine structure, most of the SUBJ
scribers considering that the capital
which they invested was we'll invested,
regardless of whether they received
any direct return from it.
of such great Importance to Savannah
and that any money which they might
invest they would get back in other
ways. But, contrary to expectations,
the stock of the company is now max
ing a satisfactory return. Since that
time the population of the city has
greatly increased. 1t has come into
the public eye as a favorite stopping
place for tourists, and since tourists
rates have been established, the pres
ent hotel facilities cannot accommo-
date the tide of travel which is setting
in this direction.
Most Attractive City in South.
With Savannah's advantages, it
ought to be a better tourists point than
any city in Florida. It's winter eli
mate is unsurpassed. and there is no
city in Florida which can compare with
it in beauty, or the many facilities for
the entertainment of the visitor.
The erection of additional hotels in
Savannah will not in any way inter-
fere with the patronage of the existing
hotels, but will rather tend to increase
it, This has been the experience of
other places.
There is no hotel in Savannah which
is now run on the European plan, and
in a city the size of Savannah, this
is a necessity. There are a great many
people here who would want the kind
of accommodations that can be afford
ed by hotel conducted on the Euro
pean plan. A well conducted cafe in
connection with such a hotel would
prove a great convenience and a pay
ing investment.
Movement Now on Foot.
An active movement is now on foot
in Savannah to raise among the citi-
zens the necessary money to build and
equip a first class, up-to-date Euro
pean hotel, with all the modern inn
provements, and this movement ought
TO meet with the encouragement and
support of the citizens of Savannah.
The site on which it is proposed to
erect this building is one admirably
adapted for the purpose. 1t is situated
on that trust lot which faces on Madi-
son Square, and is bounded by Bull,
Drayton, Macon and Charlton streets,
thus giving it a street exposure on
every side, and being conveniently To-
Gated for the theater, churches. and
not too far from the business section.
