would pay four per cent. on~savlngs.
Mayor Herman Myers, the president
of the Oglethorpe Savings and Trust
Company, met this raise promptly and
the other members of the Clearing
House did likewise, with two excep

ern Bank, with Mr. Mills B. Lane, for

Savannah Trust Company. One day
the Trust Company raised everybody
one per cent., and began paying five
per cent, interest. This woke up the

of the banks are paying five. There

New Orleans, La., May 6, 1906.
The excellent market in Liverpool
could hardly be called surprising in
the face of noteworthy Improvement
In statistics, as demonstrated by yes
terday’s visible statement. Bears were
nervous and covered extensively, and
this and the more optimistic feeling
In Manchester helped along the ad
vance, closing prices showing a gain
over yesterday of 6 points. Spot sales
were 7,000 bales, old quotations being
raised 3 points.
The same influences that governed
the action of the foreign market were
largely responsible for the Improve
ment here, but despite even the better
feeling that now prevails, very little,
If any, Interest Is manifested by the
public at large. Nevertheless, prices
were well maintained throughout the
trading and the disposition of those
who generally favor the short side to

leader had announced himself as pre

232,000 bales, against 248,000 last year
and 126,000 the year before, greatly

The dullness of-spots abroad was
attributed to the European half holi

heavily on the call.
The “Insight” figures show 10,000,.

A WESLEYAN TREE
GAVEL PRESENTED
To the General Methodist Conference
at Birmingham.
Special to The Herald.
Savananh, May 5.—Mr. R. B. Rep-
pard, has sent tp the' General Confer
ence of the Methodist church at Birm
ingham a large gavel made from the
oak at Thunderbolt under which John
Wesley used to preach. The oak was
feled two years ago. Since that time
Mr. Reppard has preserved a good sup
ply of the wood and he distributes a
gavel occasionaly at a Methodist, gath
ering. The gavel that goes to Birm
ingham today bears on Its rim an In
vitation to the convention to meet in
Savannah in 1910, the date Of its next
gathering.
DEMERITS
Instead of Dismissal for Hazing at
Naval Academy.
Washington, May 6.—After a con
sultation of naval officials, admirals
and the superintendent of the Naval
Academy, several midshipmen impli
cated In hazing will be punished by
demerits instead of by dismissal. The
new law provides that demerits may
be substituted for the harsher punish
ment. l
Mr. S. L. Bowen, of Wayne, W. Va.,
writes: “I was a sufferer from-kidney
disease, so that at times I could not
get out of bed, and when I did I could
not stand straight. I took Foley’s Kid
ney Cure. One dollar bottle and part
of the second cured me entirely.”
Foley’s Kidney Cure works wonders
where others are total failures.
