MASON’S REPLY.
Plain Statement of Facts With
out Any Embellishment.
Capt. U. Dart Didn’t Like Last Fri
day's Article on the Bark Si
rens—His Communica
tion in the Times.
Brunswick, Ga , July 21.—T0
I The Post:—My conversation with
your reporter, which appeared in
I your issue of Friday last, seems to
liuve hit a leader spot somewhere, to
have brought forth such an article
as appeared in the morning paper of
yesterday. The old saying “The
truth hurts’’ proves itself occasion
ally. Your reporter failed to publish
our conversation in exact Words, as
Ido not remember having used the
word “boodle,” neither did 1 assert
that the case would be fought to the
biller end in the .United States
court. I did say that tow boats did
not want to be called on occasions of
that kindOthat they alwavs offered
their services as- a matter of business.
1 also stated that 1 thought the mat
ter could have been settled outsideof
the courts. The captain informed
me that he had called upon the par
ties several times previous to the at
tachment and endeavored to get an
offer from them, but they would
name no amount. I also stated,
"“upon information that I had,” that
the case bad been forced into court
by the claimants: and that if the de
cision did not suit the insurance
companies they would evidently ap
peal, and the ease might remain in
the courts for years, and that the
claimants would not be benelitted for
a long time.
I have been informed that where a
case of salvage is absolutely proven,
the law allows one-third of the total
valuation of the property. It was
the-etore reasonable to suppose that
the elaiqyints expected this amount,
in the absense of any offer from
them. Aly experience teaches me
that the easiest way is always the
best to settle these differences, and
an amicable adjustment is alwavs
better than a court scrape.
In regard to the sarcasm I shall
not attempt to reply, as my mind
does not run in this channel. I trust
that it will be highly enjoyed by
those who have acquired a taste for
such stuff. »
Now. as far as I am concerned in
this matter, is that it is to my in
terest to assist and protect the inter
ests ol' my patrons and the interests
of our shipping. I have no ill feeling
against any member of the tow boat
combiimtion or any’ one connected
! therewith. I regard them all as
I friend-. and shall still, in spite of
the article that, appeared in Sunday's
■ issue of th<’m ’i ning paper. It must
be conceded that our shipping is our
greatest interest, and should be fos
tered. and protected by every good
citizen in our community. There is
not a man, woman or child in our
city who is not. directly or indirectly,
interested in this one great interest:
and when that suffers, all others
must suft'i r likewise.
1 believe I have said that tug Dart
should be rewarded for her services,
and she will be, no doubt. I called
upon Messrs. Coney <fc Parker when
I learned that the claimants were
going to Savannah to sue out a libel
against the vessel, and urged them to
assist me in settling the claim. They
said that the matter was out of their
hands. I told them that I thought I
cdhld get the captain to accept a
certain offer, but Air. Parker told
me that he did not think it would be
accepted; that the claimants’ ideas
were away up in the thousands. If
the claimants had made the captain
an offer previous to the libel, their
oiler would have been cabled at once
to the underwriters, asking authority
to settle, and the vessel would doubt
less have been well on her way to
Hamburg. As it is. she is anchored
in the hay at an expense of about
‘s6o per day to her owners. Let us
protect and increase our shipping in
terests, if possible, and endeavor to
maintain the good name of our port.
Respectfully,
E. H. Mason.
j Goods must go, at any sacrifice,
attend our mid summer sale, com

A R/kINY DAY ON ST. gl MON S.
Sunday Spent in the Shadow of Over
hanging Clouds,
Yesterday was a dull day on St.
Simon’s.
But few strangers visited the is
land, and hardly more than two
hundred people went over from
Brunswick.
A light rain fell during the greater
part of the day, keeping the people
in the hotels. A little surf bathing
was indulged in in the morning, and
al high tide in the evening a tine
surf bath was enjoyed By quite a
number of ladies and geil|lemen.
There is still a large,' number of
guests at the hotel, and) Hotel St.
Simon’s will not dose |to-day nor
perhaps any other day soon. In
fact, it is not intended to close the
hotel before the Ist of Jfugust, and
it may be kept open eveullonger.
Extensive preparations are being
made for the entertainment of next
Friday night and also tor the Con
federate Veterans’ picnic.
This will be held on the island on
Wednesday, the 23d. ’
The “Retreat” has tendered
for the use ot the old vey>, and they
will spend.a great part of the day in
this pleasant place, with their stories
and jokes and songs. And a grand
old time will they have,| as they re
call the bright flashes ff the camp
fires of a quarter of a dentury back,
when Dixie when her
boys were tried in the crucible and
found true. The people will see that
the old veteran fares well.
The irrepiessible Joe Wallace is
making extensive preparations to en
tertain the veterans. A sparring
match will be given by two stalwart
and .scientific handlers of gloves, and
there will be a shooting mutch for a
line sterling ,sbot gun. The match
is open to the world.
Foot racing, boating'and bathing
will also contribute to ' the pleasure
of the picnieers.
In the afternoon a grand feast of
barbecued meats will bespread, ft
is safe ti say that Mr. Wallace
knows how to jiandle a. barbecue, and
and that (•vehrThtn<f will be prepared'
well. Let the festive picuicer
gather himself together with the in
tention of having a good time, and
he will not be disappointed. There
will be sport and amusement. for a' 1 .
There is a gooTdeal of comphunt
on the Island about the manner in
which the boats deliver freight to
them. One gentleman state:! yester
day that be bad had a bundle of
winffow frames thrown off the boat
and completely ruined, and two or
three others near, spoke of instances
in which packages and boxes of
frctolit were either badly damaged
or ruined altogether.
Remembering the Firemen.
L ist Saturday night a check for
SIOO was forwarded to the Savannah
firemen, whose noble effects in extin
guishing Brunswick’s great fire will
long live in the memory of the peo
ple of this city. The check was the
result of a short canvass umong the
citizens by Messis. M. J. Colsojp and
11. N. Gann. The letter uccojpan
ing the small gift was as follows;
Brunswick. July 19—I’. J. (An
nors, Savannah Ga. —Deak Siu: The

this iftek. We feel deeply sensible
of our gratitude to yourself and com
pamons, ami in evidence of the same
beg you to accept inclosed check for j
SIOO ns a gift from the people of the
city of Brunswick. We beg you, to
divide this amount aiming yourselves
as your own judgement may suggest
best.
Wishing you all well, a long and
happy future, and with great esteem,

Anxious to Play Ball.
The Wide awakes, of Brunswick,
are anxious to play the Albany base
ball club nt any time tlic latter club
will forward the challenge. The re
port has been circulated that the two
clubs would cross bats in Albany
next Thursday. The Wide-awakes,
however, have not received any no
tilication of the approaching contest,
although they are extremely anxious.
Tbe Gracie won the race easily
over the other boats, and we propose
to sail just us easily away from all
of those self-styled exclusive dealers
in this city. Ifyou value money at
