FLORIDA’S CAUCUS VOTE.
PJERKY TAKKS THE LEAD ON

Success—Another Caucus to 15e field
To-Morrow—Talk of a Dark Horse Al
ready Heard.
Tallahassee. Fla., April 12.—in the
Senate to-day the bill requiring railroads
to fence their lines was discussed with
considerable feeling, as it imposes upon
railroads absolute liability without proof
ef negligence unless the traok is inclosed
In sufficient fence.
Senator McMurray’s resolution ot sym
pathy with the Irish people passed both
bouses under a suspension of the rules,
and is the first measure presented to the
Governor for his approval.
The rules were suspended and a memo
rial asking Congress to enact a law to
prevent fraudulent use of the mails for
swindling innocent persons was passed.
In the House a resolution passed ap
pointing a committee to inquire into the
fconflagratlon at St. Augustine and solicit
Bid lor the sufferers if neoessary. The
Bpeaker appointed Messrs. Ewans of
■Washington, Farnell, Hind and Gainer
•s the committee.
By resolution the question of having a
Btateexhibit at the London exposition
was referred to the Committee on Appro
priations.
FINLEY A DARK HORSE.
The line is being closely drawn between
the respective friends of Perry and Blox
ham in the Senatorial race. There are,
however, some members who earnestly
desire the introduotion. at the eleventh
hour, of a third man, who will profit by
the determined division of the majority
of the members Detween the leading as
pirants, who are now considered to have
about an equal obance for success.
It is fully expected that eith'-r B!nx
ham or Perry will be the next Senator,
but it will not be surprising if a desper
ate effort is made to quiet the now hotly
contesting fad ions by taking up anew
man, and Gen. Finley, the recent ap
pointee by the Governor, is spoken of as a
Mark horse.
SOME OF THE NEW MEASURES.
Some very radical measures have been
already proposed in the Legislature, and
among them may be mentioned the bill
allowing common law actions to bo
brought against married women for
claims against them not exoeeuiug $600;
also a bill introduced in the House by a
colored member from Leon requiring
anarried women to join their husbands iu
making chattel mortgages.
Each house is progressing satisfacto
illy with its work, but there will be no
legislation or consequence accomplished
until the vexed question oi electing a
United States Senator is disposed of. The
caucus soon to meet will settle the
matter.

Wklaka, Fla., April 12.—Orange cul
ture is the chief Industry of this locality,
&nd many have keen well rewarded lor
their labor. Some very fine proves are to
toe found here, and the country is settled
up for miles back. Homestead land was
•11 taken years ago, and homesteads gen
erally have been divided up into soveral
places. The people are an industrious,
go-ahead class. Farming is carried on
to some extent, and can be made
quite profitable. People are turning
their attention to itmoro and more and it
can be carried on In connection with
orange oulture and other eemi-tropical
industries. The past two winters have
been severe ones for this locality and
young groves have suffered in many in
stances and much fruit spoiled. Prlo -
of oranges during the past winter have
not been up to the average. I'bis was
owing to much of the fruit being rusty
and to the lack of organization among
the growers to protect one another.
There Is a remedy for Ibis condition of
affairs, and it Is to bs hoped that by un
ntber season an organized association
will be formed which will compel buyers
to come here and buy. thus Insuring hon
esty in returns and putting the handling
of oranges out of the bauds of the dishon
est dealers, Steps are being taken to in
corporate the place, and if all goes on
smootnly In two weeks more it will be
under the control of a municipal govern
ment. A good railroad boom has also
struck this place, and it is expected that

ciation convened in the court house at 12
o’clock yesterday. President L. Johnson
presided; C. B. Towsend acted as Secre
tary. After organization and enrollment
of names, twenty-six members, repre
senting forty-four stills, were found pres
ent.. The membership contained some of
the best and most reliable naval stores

position on “horning.”
At the conclusion of his "explanation”
and in reply to interrogations by Vice
President A. P. Brantley, Mr. Carson ad
mitted that there was foundation lor the
complaints of the association. Ho
admitted that the failure of
faclors to show in their ac
count sales to whom consignments were
sold was an incentive to dishonesty,
while “horn ing” could not be successfully
defend' and. Mr. Howard Page, of Louis
ville, Ky., representing the Standard Oil
Company, stated to the convention that
the object and only object of his compa
ny in buying directly from the producers
was to cheapen the cost to themselves.

McArthur’s Luck of .lodgment at a
Critical Tim Allows the Carolinians
Two Itlliim end Caiupau’s Muff of a Fly
Gives 7 hem tlie Game—New Flayers
in the Field—The Closing Game To-
Day,
McArthur’s lack of headwork lost Sa
vannah yesterday’s game with Charles
ton. Up to the seventh inning tne visitors
had tailed to score a single run. Tbe
home club bad sent two men across the
plate. It was the latter half of the sev
enth inning. The visitors wore at tbe
bat. Two men had been put out. There
was a man on third and another at
second, when Smith went to the bat and
sent a grounder to McArthur.
It would have been an easy
put out at first which. of
course, was tbe play to make,
since there were two men already out
and tho runner could not possibly score,
but instead, McArthur threw borne. Wil
liams, who was on third, was within ten
feet of the home plate when the ball
retched the catcher’s bands. Carl, who
followed him, led off from second, and was
nearly down to third. Bmitb, who had
thrown down bis hat and was about to
start for the players’ Dench, thinking he
was surely out, was by this time safe at
first and started to go to second. McAr
thur's play took Parker unawares. Wil
liams started back to third
and Carl to second. It was a chase be
tween oases. Half way between home
and third Parker threw the ball to cut
the runner off. It was a wild throw aud
both Williams and Carl scored. Smith
followed on Campau’s mull' of a fly to
left field by Corcoron, giving the visitors
the lead by one run.
In the next intiing Hines scored on an
error of Me Adams making four runs in
all. Savannah failed to score after the
fourth inning.
It was an evenly played game up to the
“fatal seventh.” Nulther side made any
particularly striking plays. The visitors
were credited with nine hits, four of
which were bases on balls. Savannah
was given five hits off Smith.
Parker, who caught for Savannah, did
very effective work. He is rather weak
at the hat and did not throw as well to
second as Dallas, but with practice may
make a valuable player. He is here on
trial. He played last year with Oswego
iu the International League and was a
short, time with Augusta and Charleston.
Overstreet, who played right field In
place of Hutohinson,is from St. Louis and
is also playing on trial. Hutchinson
played short and Reilly third base.
Charleston played the same men as in
Monday’s gama, with the exception o(
Smith and Childs. The following is the

Easter services were held in “All
Saints” Episcopal church in this town
Sunday.
Alateriai nature wore an auspicious
smile, and the appreciative people of
our town and community came oul in
such numbers that, the little sanctuary
was filled to overflowing. The church
within presented a scene of unsurpassed
loveliness. Flowers met the traze on
every side, and the air was redolent with
their sweet fragrance. The altar was
covered witb a prolusion of magnificent
blooms, above which upon the desk there
rested a cross and anchor of pure white
roses. The chandeliers were graceiullv
encircled in luxuriant vines and flowers
still Iresh with the morning dew, while
the old historic font, at which it is said
John Wesley stood and baptized, was
filled with flow.ers ot the rarest beauty.
The Easter services were conducted by
the pastor. Rev. G. \Y. E. Fisse, of Savan
nah. The choir, under the direction of
Prof. Jones, rendered some beautiful
music.
AUGYLE ANNALS.
Cattle and Fruit Interests Promising
A Shooting Affray.
Argylk. Fla., April 12.—From re
ports gathered from all sections of this
county ( Walton ) the cattle interest is in
first class condition this spring. The
late frosts did but little damage to fruit,
and the present prospect is for a good
fruit year.
Make Curry and Julius Carter, two
negroes employed in Anslev & Mc-
Caskill’s turpentine farm, indulged in a
small shooting affray here Sunday.
Carter was struck in his right side,
the ball ranging around, lodging in his
back, making a painful and ugly but not
dangerous wound. Curry, it is said, was
shot in the neck, but left as soon as
the shooting ceased. The trouble grew
out of a game of cards.
