v. ". GEDDES IN
CHARGE Of
ESCAMb|A
Former Chief Clerk Will in Future
Conduct Hostely-lease Of
CIV. Sims Purchased.

A deal which has been pending for
several days was yesterday closed
when Geo. w. Sims, who held lease
on Hotel Escamb:a. and which had
some years to run, sold the lease to
the Fisher estate, the owners of the
hotel property. The latter immediate
ly placed w. W. Geddes, formerly
chief clerk, in charge of the hotel
as manager.
Mr.. Sims has been in charge of the
hotel for several years, but spent only
a portion of his time here, so decided
to dispose of his lease to the owners
of the hotel when an offer was made.
1t was stated yesterday by those in
terested that the big hostelry would
be repa'nted, refurnished and placed
in first-class condition, and an effort
made to run it in first-class style. The
new manager has had considerable
experience in the hotel business. hav-
nlg served for the past fifteen years
either as manager or clerk in some of
the leading hotels OF the south.

things-the actual consumpt;ve de-
mand and fight between the export
ers. But i'm his opinion the market
will continue high as long as the pres
ent demand continues. whether or not
the exporters engage in wrangle and
war of determination by raising prices,
as is sometimes done in the naval
stores export business.
Be this as it may, Pensacola ard
the surrounding country is benefitting
to a marked degree by the present
skyward prices of the article, and
operators and naval stores firms are
in hopes that it will continue to rule
as at present, but as stated, the prices
are made i'm Savannah and their sta
bility is somewhat uncertain. The
business is now i'm very healthy con-
d.tiOn, however and if the demand
continues there is hardly any likeli-
hood for much of a decnne from pres
ent prices.
While the operators are selling
their product at a very remunerat:ve
price at present and have been for
some time past, they too have been
compelled to pay higher prices in or
der to secure rosin and turpentine to
market. Labor is very scarce and
wages much higher than in num-
- l. l. =.
er and harder to obtain. Were the
operator forced to sell his output of
today at prices that ruled a few years
since he would remain in business
only a few weeks, as the expense OF
conducting a farm would be much
more than the receipts from the out
put.

tage of the cheap rates offered by the
Louisville & Nashville to pay a visit

OF the large number leaving here a
majority went to Chicago, fully one
hundred and twenty-five tickets being

having that city as their destination
departed at noon.
The remainder of the tickets sold
were for St Louis, Louisville and Gin

NAVAL STORES DEMAND
CAUSES RECORD PRICES
2uotahons Nozv THE Highest IN History of
the Trade at this Seasou==Exborteys
Fight for Business,

Never in the history of the naval
stores trade has there been such de-
lmand for the product. And never
before in the history of the trade al
this season of the year have the prices
been as high as the quotations now
, show them to be. The high prices are
the result, according to practical nav.
al stores men, of actual consumption
causing a big demand, and a fight
between exporters for shipments.
Last year it was thought that rosin
was soaring skyward and that turpen-
tine would never again reach so high
a point On the same date this sea-
son the market quotations show
rosins of all classes to be fully 10 per
cent. above last years quotations
while turpentine is holding its own
with great tenacity.
While Savannah controls the mar
ket, Pensacola and surrounding coun-
try is nevertheless interested to a
very great degree and the steady and
rapid gains made by rosins during the
past few weeks have been particularly
pleas ng, inasmuch as the rise greatly
benefits this section.
Saturdays quotations shows w. W.,
or the highest grade of rosin to be
$3.50 to $3.50, the highest price it has
ever been known to reach, while grade
G and lower grades are selling at
from $3.621a to S3.7O, a price which in
years gene by could hardly be obtain
ed for many of the higher grades.
