WHO PROPOSED
HOTELS NAME

Now tlat the long mooted question
OF a name for PensacoIa's new hotel
has been settled, it is interesting to
recall how and by whom this name,
san Carlos" was selected.
Nearly a year ago, when it was de-
cided to build the new hotel, The
Journal called for suggestions as to
a name for the proposed institution,
opening it's columns for the publica-
ton of every suggestion that was
made. Among the scores of names
proposed, Mr.. J. c. PeSley submitted
the name, San Carlos" and it should
be gratifying to Mr.. Pebley now to
know that his suggestion has been
adopted.

not ceased, large amount of the cot
ton was removed from the ship yes
terday by cotton screwmen, and
brought to the city.
The cotton thus removed was
placed on the vacant lot between
Commandments and TarragOna street
wharves and is guarded by watchmen
to see that it does not flare up.
The cotton removed is badly dam
aged. All of it came from the shelter
deck. It will probably be several
days before 1t is all taken from the
ship. and then 1t will be decided what
to make of it.
