All the asphalt and hr Lit pivlng com
pat.le.- operating In this section have en
tered Into a combination and divided the
southern territory between them
This Is the Information that
oms to the Morning News
from reliable sources The asphalt
and the brnk people, after fighting each
other for ten years, have concluded that
there is more money In acting In harmony
ni have made their arrangements to do
wo.
Hereafter when there t* a paving con
tract to be awarded the same concern will
mak** bids on asphalt, brick, granite bkvk
or whatever material may be desired. In
fact, this sort of thing Is already being
done Mr. W. M Lasley of the Tennes-
Paving Brl k Company of chattanoo
xa. which has furnished most of Kavan
t ah'* paving brick. Is now filling big con
tracts In Atlanta and Norfolk, Va Mr.
Arthur Bhreve, mang#r of the Routhcrn
Asphalt l*a\lug Company, which laid
Drayton street. h row laying paving
brick In some of the Virginia cities.
That there is such a combination was
confirmed from two separate, and distinct
xdurcew. A* to how tt will work out, and
is to what the effect will be upon Bavan
na h. there was some difference of opin
ion. but that a combine baa been effected
there is no doubt. The first overt evi
dence of the new leal here was the dis
appearance of the Southern Asphalt Pav
ing <Y>mpony's foice from the city. Aft
er giving the asphalt street* a thorough
overhauling hupt Nichols of the Koutlt
• rn too* i, rlb over the city with Direc
tor < b*i wien of the put>ll' work*, and an
nounced that h* considered the asphalt
*irets go.-l until October. There Is rome
difference of opinion on thl score, bow
evf r. and aw home wear ami f**at ha*
developed, the ntgro watchman in harg*
•*f the company’s plant here, being the
• de remaining representative of the force
ha* been notified to that effect. Hupcrtn
tend^nt i* now in Atlanta, help
ing Mr. lailsy with hi* paving contract
There ha* been no attempt on tlie part
of the Kouthein Asphalt Paving Company,
however, to Jump Its contract with the
lty Superintendent Shreve. who was
hero two or three weeks g*>, gave some
intimation of the state of affairs, and th.
r.cw conditions which have arisen. While
it I- stated to be the Intention of the
Southern Asphalt Company to give up It*
office beta It will still retain Its repair
force and the force Is expected t* put in
an upp atari. • on tw*t. 1 The company 1*
under a $ I •<m Uvnd to the city for the
faithful performance of its contract, and
it cannot afford to back out, even If It
had any dc. ire to do so. which Is not
believed to be the case.
In order to be on the safe side. Phalrmnn
Dixon of the Street and Lane Committee
had Director Gadsden notify ih** Southern
Asphalt Company of the Intention of the
*dty to take advantage of the renewal
clause in Its contracts, by which the con
tracts for maintaining the gtreta can be
renewed for five years by giving notice
three month* before the expiration of the
present contracts. The dlr*ctor was In
structed to give nottc of Intention to re
new all contracts. As the city only pay*
b cents a square yard for maintenance and
the contracts are hardly profitable to the
company It I* seen that there U good rea
son for taking time by the forelock In
making renewals.
According to the understanding her. the
Southern Asphalt Paving Company and
the Tennessee Paving Brick Company
have got control of all the territory
south of Baltimore, both for brick and
asphalt. The Barber Company of New
York, whit h owns the Trinidad Lake,
practically controls the aspnalt supply of
the world. The Barber Comp.gty appor
tions the territory between th* various
asphalt companies, and the W.irren-Rchnrf
had exclusive control In this section un
til the Kuiithern Asphalt Company of
Baltimore entered the field The recent
deal l* understood to have been made
with the WtrrenJkhsrf Company.
Asked as to the effect this combination
is likely to have upon Havannah. Alder
man Dixon said that he was not sufficient
ly Informed as vet to hasard an opinion
on the subject Savannah la not likely to
w ani any more asphalt paving for some
time to come, he said, and so Is not likely
to worry on that score. The city ha* a
contract with the Tennessee Paving Brick
Conn any, good until Jan. 1. Insuring It all
thenrlck It may need at a low figure
About the only paving work Aldermin
Dixon has in view for this fall 1* Indian
street, and thl*. be think*, will have to
t*e done with Belgian block on account of
the heavy traffic on that Mrert.
Il 1* understood to be the Intention of
the usph tli t oni>ny to begin next month
putting the streets in thorough condition
for the Winter.. If the afreets are per
mit tel to get in the same condition a*
they wne last spring, however, It I* like
ly to mean a serioua reduction In the com
pany's bill. There are several places
which ne*l repair now. and the asphalt
streets have a way of going to pieces
very rapidly, when they once start on the
decline.

ter ate In the hands of Mr* K P Hamil
ton awaiting identify atlon that may con
nect them with someone of the thou
sands of tragedies that have been enact
ed In the Philippines within the last two
years. One of the picture! Is of a stal
wart colored soldier ami the other is that
of a very young colored woman and a
baby. The letter Is that of the wife to her
husband.
Mrs Hamilton is at a loss to under

her while she was at Hendersonville. N
(’,, a few day* ago. having come from
Chaplain Allen A liens worth of the Twen
ty-fourth Putted Ktates Infantry Th* of
n-er mo t have forgotten to encloee a
word of explanation, for save the three
articles mrnttoned, there Is not a thing
to explain why the envelope Inclosing
them was sent to Mrs. Hamilton or whai
was desired of her.
The picture of the soldier shows the
best type of the colored Infantryman
The man wa* a bright mulatto, tall and
well pro|inrtlon#d and his uniform wg*
the kh.tkt that i* worn in warm climates.
It i* believed the man enlisted m Kavan
-14.1, for the letter was sent from this
city Hie wife addressed him as “Dear
Clem.” though without giving his sur
name. so that identification by that means
wus not po*.h,e Mr*. Hamilton Is ready
to showr the picture* to any worn ti who
may rail, a* she anxious that the trust
that wo* reposed In her may result in
the discovery of the wife. Mrs Hamil
ton's name and address were given tn
the woman's letter to her husband, and
It was from that the chaplain probably
obtained his cue. Mr* Hamilton, how
ever. ha* never been called upon by any
one inquiring for a reply to the letter,
nor dots she recall either the man of the
one picture or the woman of the other
One woman heard of the plcturee Mrs.
Hamilton had received. By a singular co-
Inc dence. she had a son in the f'hlltn
pines, who had enlisted In Savannah, and
III* name was Cieni Rhe had heard that
was the name of the man of whom Mrs.
Hamilton had pe n advised In the chui

ed at Mr* Hamilton's home she was un
able to restrain her gtl f. being sure that
it wa*# the picture of her son she would
bud Her transition from taara to Joy was
rapid, for a glance showed that there was
a • oincidein e in names; that the man of
the picture was not her son.
