pany held its annual meeting yester-
day, for the election of officers and di-
rectors. All of the OLD directors were
reelected

has been identified with the bank for
a long time as vice president declined
a reelection on account of business
reasons, and Mr.. William F. McCau-
ley, cashier. was elected vice president.
Mr.. Samuel l.. Clay was elected cashier
Mr.. McCauley went to the Savannah
Bank and Trust Company three years
ago from the Chatham Bank, of which
he was cashier. He is recognized as a
clear-sighted banking man, and his
connection with the Savannah Bank
and Trust mas been eminently success
full.
Mr.. Clay, although comparatively a
young man in the bank, has occupied
almost every desk below that to which
he has been elected, and is regarded
as one of its most astute and conscien-
tious officers. That he will fill his
new position with credit to himself
and the institution that has honored
him is generally conceded

and directors who will serve for the
next year:

"ENCLOSED" LAMPS
MAY BE ADOPTED.
But Electric Company Claims That

But Electric Company Claims That
There Is no Cause for Complaint.
1t is claimed by the Savannah Elec-
trio Company that it has lived up to
its lighting contract with the city,
and that there was no occasion for the
Director of Public Works to recon-
mend, in his annual report, that the
city own and operate its own lighting
pIant.
The recommendation of the head of
the Department of Public Works, as
published in the Morning News, was
generally discussed during the day,
and created something of a stir, Argu-
ments pro and con on the subject of
municipal ownership were heard. The
officers of the Savannah Electric Com
pany declared that the city had no
cause to complain and that the light
ing contract that it made was being
fulfilled.
Although it is contended by the cleo
trio company that the lighting serv-
ice that Savannah is receiving is bet
ter than that enjoyed by the average
city, it seems probable that some
change will be made, and it may be
that the modern inclosed light will be
adopted These lamps are more cost
ly than those now in use, and if they
are put in, additions will have to be
made to the companys lighting plant.
All of this will mean a large expendi-
ture.
1t is probable that forty of fifty of
these modern lamps will be put in as
an experiment, and if they are found
as satisfactory as it is believed, they
will be, they will probably be adopted,
and the city may make a new con-
tract. There are sis arc lamps in che
city, and for each $72 a year is paid.
This is in accordance with a five
year contract made by the Mayor and
aldermen a year ago. The electric
company insists, however, that it has
lived absolutely up to its contract with
the city, and that the number of lights
out for even only a short period has
been less than a quarter of l per
cent.

UNION PRAYER
SERVICES ENDED.

Meetings Believed TO Have Resulted
i'm Much Good to Many People.
With the service in the Lutheran
Church of the Ascension yesterday the
union prayer services, which have
been in progress during the entire
week, closed. The meeting was con-
Quoted by Rev. NJ. J. Epting, pastor
of st. Paurs Lutheran Church. The
subject was THE Family and The
Schools" and it was for these two in
stitutions that the special prayers were
offered
1t is the general opinion among those
who have taken part in the union serv-
ices, practically all the Protestant
ministers of the city. that the meet
ings have resulted in much good in
many lines. Besides drawing the diff
ferent denominations into a closer un
ion the meetings have undoubtedly
had their effect on the causes for
which prayer were offered. The week
of prayer was observed throughout the
entire country by Protestant denomi-
nations.

100000 CUBIC
YARDS OF EARTH.
Immense Quantity of Mud Taken
From savannah Harbor.

haFDOF.
Reports of the amount of work done
in Savannah harbor during the past
year have been filed in the office of
United States engineers for this dis
trict. Though the work has been in
progress for only a year there has
been sufficient earth taken from the
river and harbor to make a cylinder
of dirt 1900 feet high, and with a base
as large as the public square be-
tween the postoffice, and Court House
The area on top of the cylinder would
be sufficient to accommodate Il, 900
people without crowding them. The
exact figures regarding the work are
as follows:
Under the contracts there have been
2'5S2, 635 cubic yards of earth remOv-
ed. OF this amount 1898, $500 cubic
yards have been dredged under con-
tract with the Atlantic, Gulf and Pa
cine Company: and the remainder, l.,
23S,74S. under contract with the p.
Sanford Ross Company.
This amount of work completes only
about half OF the entire work which
is now under way. there being yet p
66OS66 cubic yards to be removed. The
Atlantic, Gulf & Pacific Company will
remove 1.519,650 cubic yards. and the
Ross Company. 1,141.2 16 yards
In speaking of the enormous amount
of mud and sand represented by these
figures, Col. Quinn called attention to
the fact that if it was piled on Liberty
street between East Broad and TAFT
nall, inclusive of sidewalks, that it
would make a mound twice as high as
the De Soto, and higher than the tall
est church spire in Savannah.
These figures do not include the
great amount of work which has been
done in the outside harbor, where the
dredge Cumberland is now at work.

TALK OF ELECTRIC
LIGHTS FOR TYBEE.

The Savannah Electric Company is
considering the matter of furnishing
electric lights at Tybee. The plan is
to run a wire from the city to the
island along the Tybee Railway right
of way, or near it. The introduction
of electric light at Tybee will be of
great advantage to the resort. If the
Electric Company would buy the Ty-
bee Railroad and operate electric cars
to the island, it would be of great
advantage to the resort, and to those
who desire TO visit II.

NEW NATIONAL BANK FOR SAVANNAH
Plan to Change Citizens Bank to Citizens Ma.
tIona and Organize New State Bank.

The long talked of change of the
Citizens Bank from a state institution
to National Bank has taken definite
shape by the appointment of a COM
mittee of directors to obtain data and
report to future meeting of the board.
The idea is to transform the Citizens
Bank as it exists now, into the Citi-
zens National Bank with the same cap
ital of 100000. and the same
stockholders, the bank to be To-
Gated at the same place, and

The Spirit of Winter.

The Spirit of Winter is with U.S.
making its presence known in many
different ways-sometimes by CHEEKY
sunshine and glistening SHOWS, and
sometimes by driving winds and blind
ing storms. To many people it seems
TO take delight in making bad things
worse, for rheumatism twists harder
twinges sharper. catarrh becomes
more annoying, and the many symp-
toms of scrofula are developed and
aggravated. There is not much poe
try in this but there is truth, and il is
a wonder that more people don't set
rid of these ailments. The medicine
that cures them-Hood's Sarsaparilla-
is easily obtained and there is album
