Though the United States engineers h have as yet received no word from 1 department regarding the amount app printed under the sundry civil bill continuing the St. Johns river project, p limiary preparations are being made putting the government dredges to w4 when the meaey does arrive. The captains of the two governmi dredges, St. Johns and Jacksonville, hi been preparing estimates of the repay furnishings, stores, men, etc., that will necessary for fully fitting the dredges resuming work. These estimates will given to Major Shunk and will be rea for reference when he prepares his gene estimates as to how the $300,750 app * priated shall be expended. Even should the money be put at t diapesal of the engineers here today, t dredges would ot be ready to go work before the first of next month, if ev then. It is estimated that it will require I remaialer of this month, at least, to co pete the work that is being done on I St. Johns. The new pump authorized i the Jackwnville has not yet been shipp though the engineers here are daily 4 peeting notice of shipment.

Every Re- passenger train gives evidence of the ac- Lil- tivity of life in this prosperous section. 'he land department of the Dowling on, Lumber and Naval Sotres Company, and in- the Jacksonville Development Company is ly, one of the busiest places in this hustling ch town. Mr. W. M.

Teh he agreement to do this was made today in m- a conference that was attended by prom- he fr inent operators, President John Mitchell ed, and Secretary Wilson, of the United Mine mx- Workers of America, and representatives Ia- of the districts of the affected territory. ie The agreement is regarded as a compro- he rk mise, the miners getting the wage advance rk and the operators the open shop, arbitra- tion and check weighman points. Since the sundry civil bill appropriated $309,750, the total balance due, for com- pleting the project looking to securing a channel twenty-four feet deep at mean low mater, from the city to the sea, inquiries have been many from the general public regarding the disbursement of the money, whether or not the government dredges will be put to work again, etc. No official notice has as yet been re- ceived by the local office of the appropri- ation of this money, nor notice that it is available for use in this district for the purpose for which it was set aside. Until such notice is received, the Jacksonville office can do nothing. When the official notice is received, how- ever, Maor Shunk will at once prepare an estimate as to how, in his opinion, the money can be best expended. This esti- mate will be forwarded to the chief of engineers at Washington. If approved by him, work along the lines proposed in the estimate can begin at once. More than half of this money is practi- cally already disposed of, as it must be used in meeting the payments on the con- tracts awarded to the North American Dredging Company for work at Dames Point shoals, and to Capt .R. G. Ross for the dredging at Trout Creek shoals. These two contracts, together, call for about $175,000 in round numbers. This leaves practically $134,000 for other uses, and it is practically certain that some of it, at least, will be used for meeting the expenses of again putting the United States dredges Jacksonville and St. Johns to work. As far as possible the estimate on how thle monep appropriated shall be expended is being prepared now, in order that when the official notice, that the money is avail- able, finally does reach hthe local office, there may be no unnecessary delays. The fact that the captains of the two dredges, now lying at the foot of Market street, have been ordered to prepare estimates of the cost of fully equipping their boats with stores, etc., the number of men needed, and all other details connected with resuming work, makes it practically certain that both will be put to work again in the near future. Even should the money become avail- able today, the two dredges would not be ready to resume work before several weeks had elap-ed, as repairs that are now being made cannot be completed in that length of time. The Jacksonville, which has been equip- lwd with a new and powerful engine, has yet to be equipped with the new pump authorized by the department. The pump has not yet been shipped from the manu- facturers in the North, and when it does arrive some little time will be required in installing it. But once fully equipped with the new machinery the Jacksonville, which has done some excellent work in the river here, especially at Trout creek shoals, will be one of the best dredges in the government service. Repairs to the St. Johns, though not as extensive as those to the Jackson- ville, are still of a nature that will re- quire some little time yet for completion. With the money available the govern- ment dredges at work, and the various contractors at work with their private dredges, the twenty-four foot channel from the city to the sea should be secured in about nine months after work finally gets under full swing again. This was the length of time estimated for complet- ing the work in an official report made to the board of trade some months ago. And, considering the progress that has already been made, the estimate seems a reasonable one. The two government dredges, both of which have shown their merit heretofore, are now better equipped (or will be) than ever, and should do yeoman service The dredge Atlantic, the dredge which has made for itself the name of accomplishing what it has to do in record time, will be at work here, and in addition Capt. Ross' dredge or dredges will be busy at Trout creek shoals. This force is considered entirely suffic- ient by those in a position to make accu- rate estimates, to complete the twenty- four-foot channel in nine months, and Jacksonville will then have a channel that will inestimably aid the rapidly growing commerce of this port. When it is remembered that Jackson- ville now has twenty-nine feet of water, at mean low water, over the bar at the mouth of the St. Johns river; that money has been appropriated to provide a chan- nel twenty-four feet deep at mean low water from the city to the sea; that this will in all probability be secured within nine or ten months, barring accident; a comparison with the harbor at Savannah, which has been so greatly vaunted by the Savannah papers recently, is of interest, The following, from the report of Col. Kingman, United States engineer, in charge of the Savannah district, is taken from the Savannah Morning News of yes- terday: "The Savannah harbor now has a nav- igable channel throughout the inner har- bor with a controlling depth of twenty- two feet at mean low water, and chan- nels across Tybee Knoll and the outer bar, with a controlling depth of twenty- one feet. Work on the knoll and the outer bar is still progressing." What does so many newspapers in the State mean? Harder times or prosperity? Two have been started in Lee county, two in West Florida and another will soon begin publication in Alachua. We are al- ways glad to see new enterprises, so let the good work go on.-Clearwater Press. I I --- -" 4 THE WEEKLY INDUSTRIAL RECORD. Freight Tie-Up The congestion of freight cars in the local railroad yards is still serious, and although the representatives of the vari- ous roads anticipated an improvement by the end of this week, the congestion is stidl as serious as it was during the first part of the week. During the first part of the week the con- gestion was principally that of lumber cars which were tied up awaiting the arri- val of vessels. This soon caused a conges- tion of other classes of freight, which is -now tied up in all of the yards. The railroads are working a double force of men and yard engines, day and night, doing all they can to relieve the situation, but it is a hard proposition. Road Material Delayed. On account of this congestion twenty- nine carloads of Georgia chert, consigned to the county commissioners, is tied up in the yards and is greatly delaying the work of road building in the county. The railroads have promised to get the chert to the point desired for several days. but thus far have been unable to do so. Merchants, who have goods tied up, are kicking and the railroad men are confront- ed with a serious proposition. The Norwegian steamship Parran, now in port. is taking on a large cargo of crossties from Baxter & Co. for Havana, Cuba, which is relieving the lumber situa- tion to a certain extent. Many Schooners Loading. Baxter & Co., as well as other lumber dealers, are getting out the lumber as fast as possible and the river front presents a busy scene, with vessels lying at almost every pier taking on lumber cargoes. Two schooners cleared yesterday for Portland with 750,000 feet of lumber. This, of course, relieves the situation somewhat, but railroad men declare that the lumber is coming in faster than the shippers can get it loaded on the vessels now in port. Big Steamer Chartered. Realizing the seriousness of this conges- tion. and desiring to get their lumber and erossties out as fast as possible, Baxter & Co. have chartered another foreign steamship, which is expected to arrive in port Monday morning from New York. The railroad representatives have been notifide of this charter and are delighted over the prospects of a great relief in the congestion. It is understood that the steamer char- tered will be capable of taking out about 30,000 crossties, and the work of loading her will be commenced as soon as she ar- rives and is moored at the pier. The amount of lumber now on hand on the cars and on various piers is prac- tically the same as was on hand last week, 36.000,000 feet, enough to load vessels here for at least forty-five days without the receipt of any more lumber. The Hurricane Season. Owners of schooners, it is said, are hold- ing hack their vessels from southern wa- aters now, as the hurricane season is rap- idly approaching, and as most of the ves- sels are not insured, the owners are afraid to run the rick of taking charters from southern ports. A well informed railroad man was seen yesterday in regard to the congestion and said: "The situation is practically unchanged from that of the first of the week. We are doing all-in our power to relieve the situation and to prevent a complete block Still Unchanged of traffic. As was stated last week, we have placed extra yard engines in com- mission and have employed more men and are working day and night. "Lumber is coming in on us faster than shippers can ship it out on vessels, and unless something is done at an early date, the situation will become more serious. Baxter & Co. have chartered another steamer, which is expected Monday. This ship will take out a large cargo of cross- ties, thus relieving the situation to a great extent. "We are doing all in our power to re- lieve the situation and we believe the mer- chants appreciate that fact." SUPERVISING INSPECTOR SEIZED BARRELS OF TURPENTINE. J. R. Parker, of this citl, supervising inspector of naval stores, who was appoint- ed by Governor Broward under the pro- visions of the pure spirits of turpentine W. act, passed by the legislature, yesterday condemned and seized twenty-one barrels of adulterated spirits of turpentine. I The adulterated spirits were found in the yards of the National Transportation and Terminal Company, and were consigned to the Jacksonville Naval Stores Company. They had been shipped here from an inte- rior point and the matter is being inves- tigated. The company to whom they were consigned is not held responsible, as the S goods are not inspected until after their arrival from the producer. Under the provisions of the law the na- re val stores inspector reports the seizure to the state attorney of the judicial circuit in which the adulterated spirits are found and the state attorney will institute proceed- ings to have the adulterdated spirits for- feited and ordered sold. The inspection of turpentine is for the benefit of the turpentine operators as well as the Healers and exporters. A penalty of not exceeding $5,000 fine is provided for the adulteration of spirits of turpentine and for it is comparatively easy to tell where each barrel of spirits comes from. The principal adulterant used by the operators who wish to make money quick out of their supply of spirits is kerosene oil. The oil costs about 12 or 13 cents a gallon and just now spirits of turpentine is selling at 57 to 58 cents per gallon. But the oil and the spirits will not mix so that they cannot, be detected. The hydrometer test gives the specific gravity of the con- tents of the barrel and if it is below what it should be, then a further test is made. To the credit of the turpentine operators it can be said that comparatively few seiz- ures have ever been made of adulterated spirits in this State. REWARD FOR ALEXANDER. The Georgia Railroad Bank Wants Its A Money Back. 4 Augusta, Ga., July 20.-The Georgia A Railroad Bank officials offer a reward of : $1.000 for the capture of Thomas W.

On Organised to Work for Towa's Ad- vaaemnt. Mayo, July 20.-Another move for the advancement and upbuilding of the town of Mayo was made when a board of trade was permanently organized. A meeting of t.e representative citizens of the town was held on July 10, for the purpose of dis- cussing the question, at which time a tem- porary organization was effected, and this week, with the addition of nearly every besines man in town, the temporary or- ganition was made permanent, and a constitution and by-laws adopted, oMfers elected and other business attended to. The offers are: Fred W. Butler, presi- dent; W. T. Dens, vice-president; J. M. Gornto, secretary; J. B. Horne, treasurer, and these officers and W. T. Clark, J. T. Hendry and lamar G. C iter as directors. The officers and members of this organi- sation have entered into the matter with enthusiasm and with a determination to "do something"; there is no doubt but that much can and will be accomplished by the organized efforts of the men composing this organisation. It is persistently rumored here, and from apparently good authority that the rail- road recently purchased by John Skelton Williams and associates, and which it was thought would go by Perry, in Taylor county, and across the southern part of this county, will now come by this place, and that a force of surveyors are now on their way, running the survey so as to strike this place, and that it will go from * here, southward along the Suwannee river and across that river at or above Old Town and continue to Tampa, which is the pro- posed terminus, should this rumor be true, it will place Mayo on a trunk line, and the benefits to the town will be in- calculable. The building of dwelling houses goes merrily on here; every carpenter in the place is kept busy,.and several jobs are on hand all the time, and still the demand for houses to rent cannot be supplied. The values of real estate have risen within the past six months about one-fourth, and possibly more, while there are a number of people who will not sell at all, even though they are offered' a fancy price. TO REACH MEW MILL. The St. Johns River Terminal Company is now constructing a spur track, com- mencing from the old Talleyrand round house and running through the company's property to the property recently acquired by Dean & Toomer from Courtland Buck- man, which lies along the river front for a distance of 1,000 feet. This spur track crosses Talleyrand ave- nue at a point just south of the Edwards Half Way House and thence directly to tne river banks. On this river front prop- erty the Dean & Toomer Company is bulk- heading the river and erecting long piers and saw mills. This railroad will be some 6,300 feet in length and is now graded and the ties laid ready for completion as soon as the rails arrive, which have already been shipped. This piece of track goes through a most excellent territory and one especially adapted for manufacturing enterprises of all kinds, as it is convenient to both rail and water traffic Land is now in great demand in that section of the county and one or more large manufacturing enter- prises have already secured figures on land and may establish plants in that section in the near future. The Dean & Toomer Company are erect- ing one of the largest sawmill plants in the county on the river front and they intend to load lumber vessels at their dock for both coastwise and foreign ports. All along the river front from the Flor- ida Ontrich farm to Panama can be seen many large milling and manufacturing en- terprises, all doing magnificent businesses. No better site could be secured for manu- facturing concerns than in this section of the city, as the railroad facilities are the best that can be obtained and many great improvements are now being made in that section by the Seaboard, Atlantic Coast Line and the St. Johns River Terminal Company. LABOR TROUBLE AT SAWMILL. Whites and Blacks Were in Line for Trouble Over Pay Check. Moultrie, Ga., July 19.-A clash between the whites and blacks at the Sumner & Pounds sawmill, near Moultrie, was nar- rowly averted yesterday. The first dis- order was the demand of a negro laborer named Gus Bush made on Supt. Robinson for a time check which had been denied him under the rules of the company for losing a day without giving notice in ad- vance. Bush was heavily armed and was ac- companied by a dozen other negroes, most of whom were armed, and the superintend- ent was forced to give over the check. When it was delivered to Bush he waved it over his head and all the negroes in the crowd cheered him warmly. This incensed, tne white laborers who had been forced to observe the same rule, and they went on a strike. Feeling between the whites and col- ored laborers was very high for several hours, and a number of the white men sent into Moultrie for pistols and guins. It is reported that the negroes continued to arm themselves. Finally the white men returned to work on the agreement of the superintendent to discharge the negroes. The sheriff was sent for in the meantime and went out with his deputy and placed Bush and another of the ringleaders of the affair under arrest. The remainder of the negroes have been notified that they will be permitted to return to work if they accept the conditions and rules over which the trouble occurred. It developed that the negroes had planned at a meeting last night to overpower the superintendent and take the time check .k MUCH LUMBER HERE. Upwards of 35,0oo00oo Feet of Yellow Pine Awaiting Shipment. Although much publicity has been given to the congested condition of the freight yards of the various railroad companies in Jacksonville, the average person has no idea of the vast amount of cars that e now tied up. SIn discussing the matter yesterday a well ,.sted railroad man said that 35,000,000 feet of yellow pine lumber was now tied up in Jacksonville on various piers and on cars awaiting shippers to load it on vessels. Besides the great quantity of lumber on the piers there are 978 freight cars laden with lumber and tied up in the local freight yards, and many ears are arriving each day. The railroads are handling the situation to the best of their ability, but the con- gestion is serious. In addition to the many lumber cars tied up, there are sev- eral other cars that cannot be handled unti Ithe condition is bettered. Basing the situation on the amount of lumber shipped from Jacksonville during tae month of June, there is enough lum- ber in Jacksonville at present to load ves- ses for forty-five days without receiving another carload. All roads have increased their facilities by additional tracks and are working double the amount of yard engines than were in service during the same period of last year, and everything possible is being done to prevent a complete block of traffic, which will not only mean a tie up in the lumber and tie business, but all other classes of freight. The 978 carloads of lumber which are now tied up in the yards mean practically ten miles of cars. This will give the pub- lic in general an idea of the conditions in the local yards which is now giving the railroad officials so much worry. In speaking of the congestion yesterday a railroad man said: "Although the conditions now are very serious, all roads are working together and with additional forces of men and yard engines, we hope to better the situation before the end of the week. "The yard engines ar working day and night in the yards. With the number of schooners now in port the railroad men feel encouraged, as a great quantity of the lumber is being gotten out of the way daily." LIVERPOOL COTTON STATISTICS.

MILL HAND SAWED IN PRICES. Fell Against a Buss Saw and Both Arms and One Leg Cut of. Sparta, Ga., July 19.-While operating a sawmill' on the plantation of Mr. Boyd Burton, ten miles east of Sparta, Ike Allen was fatally injured yesterday. He lost his balance and fell against the saw, which was running rapidly and both arms and right leg were severed from his body. He died in a few minutes. Allen was about 40 years of age and a prosperous negro farmer. Big Land Deal A big land deal was consummated at Tampa, Fla., Saturday, which involves timber lands in Hillsborough county ag- gregating nearly 40,000 acres. The land has been purchased from Messrs. R. 8. and T. C. Hall, the Ocala turpentine ope- ratos, by Mr. Thoma Wilson, of Sam- ter, S C. Mr. Wilson bought the proper- ty for turpentine and lumber operations and paid in the n-igbhornod of $14500 for it. The deal is oe of the largest made in that section for a long time, and demon- strates that turpetine and lumber men are seeking to make that section the bas for most extensive operations.

The people of Orlando are having a good deal of trouble with the negro labor, both men and women, of the city. There seems to be some sort of concerted action on the pat of the common laborers, the cooks and the washerwomen, to refuse to work unless larger and exorbitant prices are tide. The cut through the Narrows, how- ever, will render high water navigation much easier than heretofore, though the same will not be of general benefit in shortening the distance between Savannah and Fernandina until the channel is ex- tended at either end and widened and deep- ened as required by the project. At the close of the fiscal year the project was about thirty-five per cent completed." The total amount expended in the Nar- rows during the last fiscal year was $14,- !43.81, of which $11,987.57 was for dredg- ing under contract with Wayne Cunning- ham at 14.5 cents per cubic yard, and $2,- 956.24 was for surveys and contingencies.

[CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED paid, and in many cases formerly old and reliable negroes are becoming untrust- worthy. The negroes are making a great mistake. The labor question is becoming serious. Many persons are thinking of sending for German and Irish help and the steam laundry is increasing its capac- ity so as to handle large family washes at a very reduced price. First thing the col- ored folks know they will get left and be suffering for work. Some white folks whom they trust and who are interested in their welfare ought to give them, their preachers and their leaders, a good sound talking too before it becomes so bad that tWley will be supplanted by white foreign labor.

IN3SID WATERWAY. In the annual report of Col. Dan C. Kingman, corps of engineers, U. S. army, in charge of the Savannah district, the fol- lowing is given concerning the inside wa- terway between Savannah an dFernandi- na, and will prove of special interest in view of the fact that it is proposed to open up and deepten the inside waterway between Fernandin and Jacksonville: "The report devotes a detailed state- ment of the work at Skidaway Narrows, an improvement in which all Savannah- ians are interested The first contract, which was awarded August 11, 1905, was completed a few days ago. The cost of the improvement as originally planned is es- timated at $55,000, but the river and har- bor act of March, 1906, carried only $20,- 000. With this sum available it was de- cided to dredge a channel along the ap- proved route with a width of sixty feet and a depth of five feet at mean low wa- ter, to be enlarged to seventy-five feet in width when the remaining money is pro- vided. "Col. Kingman reports that 'owing to the insufficiency of the amount appropri- ated, it will not be possible to connect the dredged cut with deep water in Burnside and Skidaway rivers at either end. There- fore, while there is a depth of five feet at low water in the Narrows, the route can only be navigated at high water, as before improvement, since shoals in portions of the two rivers mentioned, near the ends the new cut, are practically bare at low JACKSONVILLE.

New Steamship Line Between Jackson- ville, Havana and Nassau Sufficient Number of Vessels Here to End Freight Congestion This Norwegian steamship Nicaragua, Capt. H. Sorensen, of the new Nassau line, arrived here Monday morning from New Orieans and was moored at the Wilson & Toomer docks, Talleyrand avenue, where sue took on a partial cargo of fertilizer. The arrival of this steamer inaugurated the new Jacksonville-Nasdau steamship line which is established by the Florida Refiining Company, a new organization in Jacksonville. Thursday morning the Nicaragua moved up the river from the Wilson & Toomer docks to the Fitzgerald pier, foot of New- nan street, where she completed her cargo, taking on a quantity of general merchan- aise. Her first outward bound cargo con- sisted of about 900 tons of general mer- chandise and fertilizer. The Nassau line will make two sailings a month from Jacksonville, leaving each tri pfro mthe foot of Newnan street. This new line is headed by John T. Cox as general manager, W. P. Alford as auditor, W. A. Jones, traffic manager, and A. C. Common, general freight and passenger agent. The executive board consists of the following well known gentlemen: A. M. Ives, J. N. C. Stockton, A .C. Common, Fred W. King and Stockton Broome. The office of the company is situated at the foot of Dora street, Riverside, and the receiving dock will be at the foot of New- nan street. The Dora street dock will be used for discharging the cocoanuts and fruit brought in from Nassau and other ports. From Jacksonville the Nicaragua will first touch at Nassau, where she will dis- charge her miscellaneous cargo. She will then go to Havana to discharge her ferti- lizer cargo and from that port she will proceed to Baracoa, where she will take on a cargo of 00,000 cocoanuts, then pro- ceed to Nassau, where she will load 100,- 000 cocoanuts. At Nassau she will also load a miscel- laneous cargo consisting of various kinds of fruits, etc., and take on passengers for Jacksonville, arriving in this port about August 4. The Nassau Steamship Line offers ex- ceedingly low passenger rates from Jack- sonville to Nassau, Havana and Baracoa. The rate to Nassau is $15 ;to Havana, $25, and to Baracoa, $35. The cargo of the Nicaragua on her first trip will consist of 650 tons of fertilizer for Havana; 60,000 shingles for Nassau; 5,000 crates for Havana, and 600 barrels of miscellaneous cargo for Nassau. This is- a magnificent cargo for the first trip of a new line and it is encouraging to the promoters of the line, who anticipate an excellent business between Jacksonville and the points mentioned. Within a short while another steamer will be secured for service on this line. In fact one much larger vessel with a greater passenger capacity is now in view and may be chartered by the line in a short while. The Florida Refining Company, which is practically a new enterprise in Jack- sonville, is backed by capital and untiring business men, who deserve a great deal of credit for the establishment of this new line. Merchants in Nassau are greatly inter- ested in the new line for more than one reason. They can visit the States at a cheaper rate than was possible heretofore; they can get freight cheaper and quicker via the new line an they can secure mails oftener. On the upward trip of the Nicaragua, which will reach Jacksonville about Au- gust 4, she will bring four or five Nassau merchants who will visit the city to look into the situation, and it is more than likely that the merchants of Jacksonville will derive great benefit by the establish- ment of this line of steamers. The Florida Refining Company is head- e,. by John T. Cox as president and general manager; A. F. Perry, vice-president, and v. P .Alford, secretary and treasurer, with the same board of directors as the new new Nassau Steamship Line. The office and plant of the Florida Re- fining Company is situated at the foot of Dora street, Riverside, and they are daily making oils from the meat of the cocoanuts. The curled cocoanut fibre, a substitute for curled hair in stuffing mat- tresses and cushion stock, is also being manufactured by this company. The fibre is vermin-proof on account of the presence of tannic acid, contained therein. The oil shortening fat, manu- factured by this company, is a complete substitute for butter and is used in mak- ing pastry, bread and crackers. The oil itself is made by a completely new process under which the oil never be- comes rancid. In the oil is not a drop of drug or chemical, but is simply a vegeta- ble fat. The capacity of the plant is now 15,000 cocoanuts a day, which is being made into oils and the fibre used for purposes men- tioned. JTHE GOVERNOR AND THE EVER- GLADES. In spite of the injunctions and orders of the courts, Gov. Broward is digging a ditch down in the Everglades with the new $40,- 000 dredge boat. Another boat, to cost $40,000, will soon be ready for operation, then the dirt and sand will fly, and so will the State's money. After the Everglades are drained however, the $80,000 worth of dredge boats owned by the State can be used as sailboats to sail the Everglades during the rainy season.-Live Oak Demo- crat. The Herald strongly opposed the nomi- nation of Governor Broward, and, since his induction into office, has several times severely criticised some of his official acts. but it has always regarded him and still regards him as a man of honor, notwith- standing his severe and unjust denuncia- tion of the newspapers that have criticized him and opposed his schemes.-Punta Gorda Herald . The True Democrat still sticks to it that the sale of internal improvement lands at any amount under $1.25 per acre is an injustice to the people of Florida, and that the board in doing so deserve to be cen- sured. Having, as claimed, "precedent" and "authority to fix lands at any price they please," may sound good to those czars of Florida, but the people are doing some' thinking just about now, and we predict when they go to vote for men to fill these offices next time they will do some acting along a line that will make some changes and correct some abuses.-Talla- hassee True Democrat. If the contention of the railroad officials that the congestion of the Jacksonville freight terminals of the various lines is due to the failure of the consignees of large shipments of lumber to promptly secure vessels on which to load the lum- ber, it now looks as though the conges- tion complained of will soon be a thing of the past. According to the article published in the Times-Union yesterday morning regarding the number of vessels in port, there are at present thirty-one vessels now in port loading with cargoes of lumber or discharg- ing incoming cargoes of. coal, etc., so that they can begin loading lumber. When these thirty-one vessels are loaded there will no doubt be many more vessels here, for quite a number of schooners are under charter to load here with cargoes of lumber for coastwise and foreign ports. These vessels are in addition to the Clyde line steamers, which are constantly taking out from three to five cargoes each week. Wharfage Facilities. Quite a number of the vessels now in port will take on cargoes at the export terminals of the Atlantic Coast Line, north of the ostrich farm, along the banks of the river. The wharves at these terminals are so arranged that a dozen or more vessels can be loaded at the same time. If the lumber shippers will now secure the laborers and push the work, night and day, there is no reason why the congestion will not be relieved very shortly. The St. Johns River Terminal Company has extensive wharves, where vessels are loaded, at Talleyrand. The same company also owns quite a large amount of river frontage in the city and five and six ves- sels are frequently seen at the wharf ex- tending from Market to Yiberty streets. The Seaboard Air Line has accommoda- tions for loading several vessels at once at the company's wharves in the rear and to the southwest of the Clyde line's Hogan street dock and warehouses. "Ten there are several wharves and docks owned by private parties or frms, where lumber can be discharged from cars and loaded on vessels. All of these wharves and docks will be utilized to elear up the congestion of lumber freights and it is believed that within two weeks the condition complained of will be entirely ended. Must Move Promptly. i But to do this it will be necessary for I the railroad companies to work so that I the cargoes are placed to advantage. At a present there is such a congestion that it appears almost an impossibility for the different roads to place the particular ars t ordered by consignees where they ean be loaded. It will be remembered that one shipper stated at the hearing conducted 1 by Commissioner Burr, that he had been four months trying to get some cars co- i signed to him placed where he wanted them, so that he could unload the cars and place the lumber on lighters. At the conference in Savannah last Fri- I day Mr. James Menzies made the state- ment that the Atlantic Coast Line had be- tween 1,400 and 1,600 loaded cars stand- ing in the yards in Jacksonville. Just I what this means, only those familiar with t railroading can comprehend. The Atlantic ( Coast Line, however, is better fixed to 1 handle an enormous blockade of this kind than any of the other roads centering here, for that road has recently put in miles and miles of side tracks and with some maneuvering can place thie ars where they can be unloaded as needed by the cosignee. With thirty-one vessels in port there will no longer be any necessity for con- signees to use the ears a warehouses. If the railroads will place the ears where or- dered, things will soon up and resume normal proportions. xteming Termima. In this connection it may be stated that each of the roads is at work increasing its terminal facilities in Jacksonville. When the work of remodeling the Sea- board Air Line local freight yards is com- pleted, that road will be in position to handle general merchandise much more promptly than in the past. The road is also arranging to put in a large transfer yard in the western section of the city, having recently acquired about thirty-five acres of land just beyond Burch's old brick- yard. It will also build new docks for the handling of lumber and its capacity for handling all lines of business will be greatly increased. Alng the Mvh Fret. Another great improvement that is now under way and which will add materially to the facilities of the railroads, is the building of the Atlantic Coast Line tracks alon gthe river front, from the southern end of the export terminals, through Fair- Beld and East Jacksonville, to the old mill site known as Clark's mill, lying between Hogan's creek and the old Fernandina and Jacksonville railroad. This river line will come around Commodores Point sad will be a great factor in seeing the location of factories along the river front, where they can have the advantage of water and rail transportation directly at the doors of te factories. It is understood that the track will be about five hundred feet from the river for the entire distance. It is also reported, hut no oflial an- 2ouncement has been made, that the Sea- 3oard Air Lie has also seemed a right of way for the construction of a track that will parallel the track to be built by the Atlantic Coast Line. Another Big MiL The St. Johns River Terminal Cmpany s also making extensions, for that com- may i now engaged in building about a nile of track from the end of the "Y" it the old A. V. & W. shop, across to the iver front, south of the Talleyrand docks. k large sawmill is being established at his point and wharves for loading lum- er on vessels are being built. As a whole, the northeastern section, ying between the Atlantic Coast Line's exportt terminals and the Talleyrand docks, s fast becoming a great u-.mfietnring entire It will only be a short while before very available tract of land along the iver front in that territory will be oeu- ied by a factory of some kind.

As an open market Jacksonville is achiev- ing .the same success she has achieved in all movements looking to the up-build- ing of the city. Every operator ought to begin to figure on a few days vacation in September. iTvery one of them ought to be at the Turpentine Operators' Convention. The next meeting of the Turpentine Op- erators' Convention will be onj of the most important ones ever held. There has been a great deal taking place since Ite last meeting and the one to come ought to be full of interest. The congestion of the Jacksonville freight yards is proving of great damage to the business interests of Florida. The railroads ought to do something. Ship- pers ought to insist upon this, but at the same time it would be well for both ele- ments to get together and to have an understanding. Tampa is getting a great deal of tlhe products of the turpentine farms in the southern part of the State. Tampa is be- coming an important center in the ship- ment of ntval stores. They have acquitted the Jacksonville ice trust, but the ice men are showing a more courteous disposition toward the trade and are trading with a few more of the "common people" than formerly. Agi- tations of this kind are not without their effect. INDEPENDENCE IN TRADING. The market reports of Savannah and Jacksonville for the past week show that there has been an independence in trading in this market which has not been shown by Savannah for years From a study of the table of comparison on another page in this issue of the Record, it can be seen that the trading in Jacksonville was active and unhampered by any well or- ganized movement to bear or to bull the market, and that the prices have been influenced to a greater extent by the con- ditions and the supply and demand than they have been in the other markets of the world. In the lower grades the prices in Jack- sonville have ranged higher than those of Savannah and Jacksonville for the week has been more than keeping up the prices on the higher grades. Buyers have been offering in some cases a sharp advance for rosin here to what the Savannah prices have been quoted. While this appears to be a little mysterious, since the Jackson- ville buyers have been taking goods from both markets, there has been guessing as to the cause, without arriving at any conclusion. The Jacksonville stock has been bought and sold conservatively and without the slightest tinge of excitement characterizing these sales. The effect of all this is to demonstrate fu.iy that Jacksonville is an independent open market and that, conditions are fast shaping themselves here so as to give this city the prestige her location calls for in the handling of naval stores. Shipments have been heavy this week and the stocks here have been increasing regularly as the new crop is being marketed. THE LABOR QUESTION. Georgia is making an effort to induce tne proper kind of immigration to that State. In referring to a bill before the legislature the Savannah News says: "A determined effort is to be made to have an immigration bill passed at this session of the Legislature. In view of the fact that the demand for labor is very great in about all parts of the State, it is fair to assume that there will be a gen- eral disposition to push the bill along as fast as possible. The difficulty that will be encountered is in reaching an agreement as to the provisions of a bill that should be passed. be kept clearly in mind: C -y Gm "In shaping the bill the fact should be kept clearly in mind that two classes of immigrants are wanted, namely, a class that will quickly develop into land own -rs and farmers and a class that will be sat- isfied to be laborers. The mills, farms and mines are without a sufficient labor force. Laborers, however, can he obtained among the foreigners arriving in this country i' the right methods for getting them are adopted. It will be necessary to show them that they can do as well in the South as in any other section of the country, if not better. And it will be necessary to have agents at Ellis Island to present the claims of the State, and to see to it that only those capable of doing the kind of work required of them are forwarded. "It is the other class of immigrants that is particularly desired, because it is expected they will develop into property owning citizens and will be assimilated. There is only one way of securing thhr.-. and that is by advertising in the localities~ in Europe from which immigrants ar de sired the State's advantages, or by send- ing agents there and bringing the inmi.r- grants here in colonies. If we get colcnes established in different parts of the State the hardest part of the work will be done, because these colonists will themselves ad- vertise the State by their letters to their friends in their native countries. "We have seen how Fitzgerald has grown. The first settlers there were so well satisfied with the climate and the country that they wrote to their F.iend in the States from which they ca:r.e, an- induced some of them to follow them to Georgia. This has been going on ever sine, Fitzgerald was settled and is still going on. The place is growing rapidly, and promises to become one of the largest of the interior cities. Fitzgerald furnishes a lesson for those who are handling this im- migration matter that it would be \a !i to learn." EXCELLENT PORT RECORD. Sixty-Eight Vessels Entered and Cleared up to July 19. That July will be a banner month in shipments for the port of Jacksonville, is evident from the fact that for the first nineteen days in this month, sixty-eight vessels have entered and cleared. During the same period in May fifty- three vessels entered and cleared, and during the same period in June, forty-six vessels entered and cleared, which goes to show that the business of this port is rapidly advancing. Up to the closing hour of the custom house yesterday afternoon, the official rec- ords showed that thirty-two sailing ves- sels had entered port this month, to date, and eleven steamships, making a total of forty-three vessels entered to date. Nine sailng vessels have cleared and twelve steamships, making a total of twen- ty-one. Most of the sailing vessels enter- ing this port this month have crossed the bar during the past week and tug boats have been on a hustle to bring them up to the city front. The custom house records show that 45.200 crossties have been shipped, 9,500 bundles of shingles and 1,250,000 loose shingles. The amount of cypress lumber shipped amounted to 653.000 feet and the amount of yellow pine lumber shipped amounts to 5,983,168 feet, of which 305,- feet went to a foreign port. Along the river front the following ves- sels can be found loading and discharging cargoes: The bark Irene, schooners Alice B. Phil- ips, CaptL Lundt; Charles B. Buckley, Capt. Beane; W. F. Thompson, Capt. Me- Kowan; Harry Prescott, Capt. Gray; Mad- eline Cooney, Capt. Hunter; Robert Sny- der, Capt. Tinker; Goodwin Stoddard, (apt. Miller; Marie Cummins, Capt. Mil- ler; Savannah, Capt.

Hari- son; .J. Howell Leeds, Capt. Roupe; barges Virginia and Southland; steamship Parran, Sapt. Norberg, and several others. Most of the schooners arriving in port last week brought cargoes of coal and cement which will take some time to dis- charge. When the cargoes are discharged the vessels will at once commence to take on cargoes of lumber for coastwise and foreign ports. FRIDAY'S SAVANNAH MARKET. Impression There That the Market Will Go No Lower. In referring to the naval stores market for Friday, the Savannah News of to-day says: Spirits turpentine sold readil yat 57 cents yesterday, both during and after the session. It is the belief of many that the price will hardly go lower, but that any change will be for the better. The market opened firm and unchanged, with sales of 519 casks and closed firm and unchanged with sales of 315 additional casks. In the late trading hour all offer- ings were taken at quotations, a number of buyers sharing the supply. The receipts for the day were 1,379 casks, of which 250 were from Brunmwiek. The shipments were 76 casks, all coastwise. The New York market was quoted quiet at 00 cents, and the London market at 43I. 4%d. Rosins were apparently in good demand yesterday, and in the late trading many of the grades made gains. The opening was firm at prices below, which were at an advance in a large number of grades from the previous session. The total sales were 3,205 barrels In the late trading hour the bulk of the offerings were sold at an advance of 10 cents for WW and K, and 10 cents up outside for D and CB, 5 cents up for WG, M and I, and 5 cents up out- side for H, G and F. Another lot sold at an advance on some lower grades. The re- ceipts for the day were 2,24 barrels and the shipments 875, all coastwise. The New York market was quoted dull at $3.85. JAPS TO GROW RICE. Tney Are Investiating Codition i the Savamnnah Secti. The two Japanese sent out by the Uni- ted States Department of Agriculture to look over the rice lands of Georgia and Souh Carolina, have recently been within a few miles of Savannah over in South Carolina, and south in the vicinity of Da- rien. The Japanese are making the inves- tigations with a view to reporting to the Japanese government as to the outlook i nthis section of the belt. A large colony of Japanese was located in Texas in time for last year's crop, and are reported to have been satisfied with the results and in many instances have sent for their families. In Texas the soil is rich, but is easily exhausted, no overflow being possible for the fertilization of the fields, as is the case along the Savannah and other river. The Texas lands are said to wear out in three or four years, while some of the lands around Savannah have been in al- most continuous cultivation by rice plant- ers for over 100 years. In Japan one family is lucky to get an acre to grow rice on, the land being val- ued at about $300 in acrrency of the United States. In this country land m be obtained from $10 to $40 an acre. It has been suggested that should the Jap- anese come they would in all probability reclaim large areas now abandoned to the rise and fall of the rivers. Thank you, Florida fared very well in sponge, and a lot of other things Florida is rapidly being developed.

Mr. Fant brings encouraging reports from his section, notwithstanding the aeavy and continued rains of the past few weeks, which have had a tendency to damage the cotton crop heavily, in some instances almost demolishing the pros- pects. He states that the prospects for a good yield the coming season are fine, that the acreage is about the same as usual, and that the plant is looking fine. Planted are anticipating a successful cot- ton crop.

Beard of Trade of That City Wants More Tourist Travel. Pursuant to call of President W. G. Rob- inson, an enthusiastic and well attended meeting of the Gainesville Board of Trade was held in the city hall Thursday after- noon for the purpose of discussing the matter of exercising the influence of the board in havin gthe railroad and other transportation lines give Gainesville the advantage of a winter tourist rate, as en- joyed by other cities of the State. The question was discussed thoroughly by several members, at the conclusion of which committee was appointed, headed by B. F. Hampton, secretary of the board. with instructions to confer with the vari- ous railroads with a view to securing these rates. After the transaction of some other business of minor importance, the board adjourned subject to the call of the presi- dent. The securing of the rate desired would mean a great deal for Gainesville, as it would attract a great many more people here during the tourist season, especially since the University of Florida, the Florida Winter Bible Conference, the Christian Workers' Institute and the Gainesville Winter Chautauqua are located here.

The building of this road means much for Arcadia, as it will give her deep water connections with New York, New Orleans, Galveston, Key West, Havana and Isthmus of Panama connec- tions. At present the railroad facilities are not able to take care of the immense crops of oranges and vegetables that leave this division, but with new railroad com- petition, much better rates can be obtained by the merchants.

The cattle kings of South Florida live here and thousands of cattle are shipped annually to Cuba and Key West. The announcement in the press that Col. Peter O. Knight had purchased the Plant City, Arcadia and Gulf railroad was received by citizens with great satisfac- tion, as Col. Knight has plenty of back- ing and it is believRl this means another road into this city. It will traverse a territory rich in phosphate and timber and lands suitable for raising oranges and vegetables. All it has needed was a rail- road to develop its resources.

S District Attorney Brinag Action to Enforce Safety Appliance Law. United States District Attorney John M. Cheney yesterday instituted proceed- ings in the United States court against the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Com- pany, the Seaboard Air Line Railway Company and the St. Johns River Termi- nal Company. This action, the bringing of which was predicted in the Times-Union several weeks ago when the statement of the department of justice was published, is brought on the alleged failure of the defendant com- panies to have cars hauled by them prop- erly equipped with the safety appliances that make it unnecessary for employees to stand between cars when coupling and un- coupling cars. According to the declarations filed yes- terday with Clerk E. O. Locke, the At- lantic Coast Line is the greatest offender, there being five causes of action set up against that defendant. In the cases of the Seaboard Air Line and the St. Johns River Terminal Company, but one cause of action is set up. The penalty for violation of this act is $100 for each instance of violation proved. The following is a brief synop- sis of the charges brought against each of the three defendant companies: The first cause of action against the At- lantic Coast Line Railroad Company, as set up in the declaration, is that on Feb- ruary 15, 1906, they hauled a certain car, to-wit, No .15,155, on which the coupling apparatus at the one end was broken and the grab-irons or hand-holds on the other mashed. The second cause of action is that on the same date, February 15, 1906, the defend- ant company hauled over its lines a cer- tain car, to-wit, No. 20,639, the grab-irons or hand-holds of which were missing from one of the ends of the said car. The third cause of action sets up that on February 15, 1906, the defendant com- pany hauled over its tracks a certain car, to-wit, No. 23,288, from one end of which the grab-irons or handholds were missing. The fourth cause of action sets up charges that the defendant company on February 17, 1906, hauled over their lines a certain car, to-wit, D. S. 7,496, the coupling and uncoupling apparatus on one end of which was out of order and could not be used. It further charges that the car was not prolprly equipped at the other end with the automatic coupling appa- ratus. The fifth and last cause of action sets up that on February 17, 1906, the defend- ant company hauled over its lines a cer- tain car, to-wit, Georgia Railway No. 4,009, frqm one end of which the grab-irons or hand-holds were missing, and from the other end of wlich both were missing. The government claims $100 on each count, or cause of action, making a total of $500 sought to be recovered from the defendant company. In the case brought against the St. Johns River Terminal Company there is but one cause of action set up, as fol- lows: The cause of action set up is that on February 5, 1906, the defendant company hauled over its tracks a certain car, to-wit Southern Railway No. 70,490, the coupling on the "B" end of which was broken and out of working order, and the "A" end was not equipped with the automatic coupling apparatus. For this the government claims that the defendant is indebted to it in the sum of $100. The action against the Seaboard Air Line Railway Company, exactly similar to that against the Terminal Company, is as follows: That on February 5, 1906, the defend- ant company hauled over its tracks a cer- tain era, towit, Southern Railway, No. 70,490, the coupling on the "B" end of which was broken and out of working or- der, and the "A" end was not equipped wit., the automatic coupling apparatus. For this the government claims that the defendant is indebted to it in the sum of $100. WANTED AND FOR SALE FOR SALE-6,000 acres cypress. Will cut forty million feet. Price $20 per acre. Easy terms.

JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. i The one feature of the naval stores market for the week just ending was the tendency toward sharp advances in the lower grades of rosin. That trading was lively both here and at Savannah was evi- dent from the state of the market and the quotations posted at the close. In the up- ward tendency Jacksonville had the better of it, and toward the last few days it could be seen that the Savannah forces were making an effort to "get even" and not be outdone by the Jacksonville open market, which has maintained a policy In Savannah it has been different. It is evident that the movement there to beat prices down was called to a sudden halt by the active trading, heavy receipts and heavy shipments from the Jacksonville market. Savannah was not long in mak- ing the figures as even as they could have been made without heavy loss and the indications are that for the coming week prices here and at Savannah are to range a little more even. Turpentine suffered a decline of one- fourth of a cent this week| Instead of COMPARATIVE MARKET REPORTS.

Despite the fact that during the tent force to beat them down or to last week the woods have reported con- them up. editions exceedingly unfavorable, spirits could not ride on this influence and re- mained stationary. For the coming week there is nothing which offers an advance. In New York the report is current that the effect of free alcohol is being felt. While the bill placing wood alcohol on the free list does not go into effect until next January, buyers are cautious and are fear- ing that the effect will be to beat prices down. Activity in rosin in Jacksonville for the week, was due in part to the fact that two steamers were at Fernandina to load with rosin for export. Not being a suffic- ient stock on hand there, those who had chartered the two ships were drawing upon the Jacksonville stocks. NEW MILL ESTABLISHED.

An important geological discovery has just been made in South Georgia by Pro- fessor 8. W. McCallie, assistant State geol- ogist, who visited Decatur county in com- pany with Dr. Eugene A. Smith, State geologist of Alabama, T. H. Aldrich, of Washington, D. C., a noted paleontologist, and Dr. I. M. Harper, of New York. These gentlemen went to Decatur coun- ty to study geological conditions there and in the surrounding country, and while there made an important discovery in re- gard to fuller's earth, which has been pros- pected to a limited extent in the vicinity of Attapulgus, some fifteen miles south of Bainbridge. A discovery of the fossils in the clays and sands immediately above the fuller's O earth along the railroad cut, led to the identifications of these fossils by Mr. Al- drich as belonging to the Chattahoochee series of rocks. As this series of rocks is spread out over a large part of Decatur and Grady counties, and portions of Thomas and Brooks near the Florida line, this valuable clay is likely to be found at any point in that region. At Attapulgus, where the best expos- ures of fuller's earth occurred, it attains a thickness of more than four feet, and appears to he of excellent quality. This peculiar clay which now has a Market value of about $7 a ton, is used chiefly for clarifying oils and fats and for deodorizing and bleaching purposes. In the last few years it has largely super- seded the use of bone black for these purposes. SEALING PRIVILEGES. Said That Agreement Has Been Reached With Great Britain. Victoria, B. C., July 20.-According to advices received yesterday, negotiations at Washington for the cessation of pelagic sealing. on the basis of purchase of the Victoria and the Hakodate sealing fleet an dthe indemnification of the pelagic sealers for the loss of their industry, have almost been concluded. Sir Henry Durand, British ambassador, and the United States secretary of state reached an agreement, it is reported, and a commission will be appoint, with one representative each from Great Britain, Canada and the United States to work out the details of the agreement for the preservation of the seal herds. One condition of the sealing settlement, it is said, will be the cessation of all seal killing on the rookeries at the Prybiloff islands for at least one year except such as may be necessary for the support of the natives. It is believed that Japan will join in this agreement. BROOKSVILLE ICE FACTORY. Crystal Parade Headed by a Band of Music. Brooksville, July 20. Headed by the 1woodmen cornet band, qllite a procession composed of several wagons loaded with bright crystal ice, moved up Main street monday morning amid the loud cheers and applause of the bystanders who had con- gregaled upon the several corners. This ..eniwstration announced the fact that tihe Brooksville Ice and Cold Storage Com- pany had "pulled" their tirst ice and that they were ready to serve the general pub- lie. As the procession passed along small l yvs were engaged in throwing out pieces of the frozen crystal to the general pub- lie. The ice company gave away several hundred pounds of ice to their friends and patrons. The Brooksville Ice and Cold Storage Company is one of Brooksville's new enterprises and is composed of home people. The officers are V. H. Gwinn. president; F. B. Coogler, vice-president; Neal Law, secretary and treasurer; J. W. liracken. general manager. While the new company has had numerous difficulties to contend with, they have at last installed in Brooksville an enterprise which is bound to prove a success. Manager Bracken has la.Iored unceasingly for the best interests of his company, and his labors have been successful. Mr. Bracken is being heartily congrat- ulated for his pluck and energy in install- ing the new plant. We have been in- formed that the entire product of the plant for the next thirty days has been sold. The factory has a ten-ton capacity and will keep its patrons fully supplied. NEW BRICK BUILDING. Being Erected on Forsyth Street fpr D. L. Rathbone. Work was commenced this week on the new three-story brick building to be erect- ea on East Forsyth street, next to the hc-w York Steam laundry, on the lot for- merly owned by the city. This building is being erected for D. L. Rahlbone, the well known Adams street plumber. Although three stories in height, this building will only be forty-two feet in length, with a twenty-foot front. Tihe front elevation will be of brick and stone. Furniture Store Burned. Pensacola, July 20.-Fire, which occurred this morning at 3 o'clock, destroyed the two-story building and stock of furni- ture of George B. Green on North DeVil- lier street, entailing a loss of about $7,000, with insurance of *3,500. The fire was found to be of incendiary origin, though the proprietor has no idea who the per- son was who committed the crime. JOS. ROSENHEIM SHOE CO.

FLA. biV(l LII 311C ecar nes For more than two hours Thursday night fifteen members of the city council discussed the proposed street railway franchise ordinances and listened tb state- ments made by Chairman B. F. Dillon of t..e board of bond trustees and City At- torney J. M. Barrs. At the end of that time the whole matter was referred to a special committee for further investiga- tion, consideration and report. The meeting was held pursuant to ad- journment last Tuesday night and was at- tended by President Baker and Council- men Bettes, Bowden, Brown, Cahill, Dud- ley, Hoke, Holt, Hirschman, Ingram, Lil- lienthal, Owen, Riles, Smith and Weinbarg; and also by Chairman Dillon of the board of bond trustees, Chairman Dignan and Commissioners Warrington and Knight, of the board of public works, City Attorney Barrs and a Times-Union reporter. Sev- eral other citizens were present when the meeting was called to order, but the council decided that it would be best to go into an executive session and all were excluded, with the exception of the Times- Union reporter, who always attends the meetings of the council and whom the members apparently look upon as an ex- officio member. But, while the Times-Union man was there and heard all that was going on, all that he can say of the proceedings is that on motion of Councilman Bowden, of 'the Seventh Ward, the president of the coun- cil was directed to appoint a commtitee of five, composed of the three members of the committee on laws and rules and two other members of the council, and that this committee confer with a special committee of the board of bond trustees on the subject of the Jacksonville Electric Light Company going out of the business of furnishing lights and power in compe- tition with the city, and regarding the ap- plications for franchises of the Jackson- ville Electric Company, and George W. Clark and associates. The committee was instructed to report to an informal meet- ing of the council as a whole, to be called by the chairman, and make such recommendations that, in its opinion, will be for the best interests of the city and fair and equitable to the applicants for street railway franchises.
