Countv Commissioners Could Not Agree to the Request of the Board. The icounty commisioners met this morning and took under consideration the request of the. Board of Education for the appropriation for the coming year. The following members of the finance committee Os 't'he Board of Education ap peared before the coniniissioners: Judge W. H. Felton, A. L. Miller, Ben L. Jones, T. C. Dempsey, Washington Dessau and D. ,M. Gugel. The committee asked an appropriation of $52,600.00 and urged the granting of that amount on the board of county com missioners. They stated that the needs of the board were on the increase and that they would require that, amount to properly carry out the work of the Board of Education during the coming year. After 'the committee had retired the •county commissioners diseased the matter for some time,'but he final result was that they determined not to increase the ap propriation and made it the same as that of last year —$50,000.

Savannah, June I.—'For-sevcral days ex periments have been in progress at Tybee with a gun t'hat shoots under water. Heretofore It has ■been claimed that it was absolutely impossible to discharge a can non or any other weapon in which gun powder is used under water, the result of such an attempt being t'he bursting of the weapon used. i.Mr. Harry G.aila'ger of this city believes he has surmounted all the obstacles in the way and will soon have an invention that meets all needs so far as the successful discharge of projectiles under water is concerned. Mr. Callager has been working on this invention ever since the war broke out. His idea is that with’ such a weapon as he has in view a she'll can be thrown against the unarmored part of an ironclad below tile water line and the vessel rapidly sunk. He has progressed far enough in his expe riments to believe that success is assured. Heavy cannon balls have been thrown a distance of nearly 200 feet under water by his invention and when it is perfected ho expects to lie able to send destructive bombs many times that distance. The ex periments at Tybee have been made with a small cannon placed on the beach ready to fire. When the cannon was completely submerged a lanyard reaching to the shore was puled and the canon discharged. Af ter the tide had gone down the projectile was hunted up and the distance it had gone under water measured. A system of valves prevent t'he water from entering the gun after the discharge. The experi ments will be continued until the inven tion is perfected. The attention of the government will be drawn to it iif what is hoped for is achieved. “A boat like the Katahdin. which is ex pected to ram a vessel of the enemy, could be armed with one of these guns below the •water line,” said Mr. Gallager, in discuss ing his invention. "It could be aimed and fired by the officer on deck by electricity. The projectile, loaded with gun cotton or other high explosive, striking the enemy’s ship below the water line would do such damage as to sink it in a short time. This would accomplish what is desired without subjecting the Katahdin to the great dangers encountered in ramming. I believe the plans I have worked out will do the work at long range when they are fuly perfected.” Dannenberg Co , 50 pieces Figured Silks for waists on bar gain table right at front window.

GROWERS FIGHT FOR THEIR LIVES Central’s Contract With the Armour Regrigerating People is Attacked. SM IT CANNOT STAND The Meeting Held Yesterday in Ma- I con Was a Decided Success- Old Officers Elected. The fruit growers adjourned yesterday evening and most of 'them have gone home. The result of the meeting yesterday was eminently satisfactory to those who have the interest of all of the growers of the state at heart and the effect on the gross income of the growers from the crop of peaches this year will be very great. President Cunningham of the National Fruit Growers’ Union says thac he thinks that the saving to the growers as a result of this meeting will be very great. One of the chief things done at ths meet ing yesterday afternoon, was ths probable breaking up of an arrangement made by the Central Railroad with the Armour Re frigerating Company. It seems that the Central had made an arrangement and a contract with the re frigerating company by which the latter secured the exclusive right to run its cars over the Central. The fruit growers say that as a result of this the price for the use of the cars was put up from fifteen to twenty dolars a car. At a meeting yesterday afternoon a committee was appointed to look into the matter of refrigeration, and the report of that committee will be interesting read ing to the growers throughout the state. The report says that the Central having made an exclusiive co^ntract with the armour refrigerating company such action is considered against the best interests of the growers and urges that competition on this kind be encouraged by the growers. The result of this will be that the Conti nental Refrigerating Company, which of fers to do the business tor less money, will be given a share of the business, and the Central will be called upon to listen to the protest of the growers in that they will be ! offered the cars of the Continental people, and if they refuse to haul them they will be called upon to pay the difference be tween the prices charged by the two com panies. The report of the committee recom mends that the growers of the state Union of growers pledge themselves individual’y to pay their share of the expenses incur red in fighting the carrying out of this con tract. Railroad rates came in for a share of the attention of the growers at the meeting yesterday. A committee was appointed for the purpose of securing a conference W’ith the railroad people with a view to | securing a reduction of the rates which are considered entirely too high. The meeting yesterday was thoroughly representative of the fruit growers of the state. Only two of the principal sections ' were not represened. Marshallville it not taking any interest, it would seem so far in the action of the union. (And Cuthbert, which has been discouraged by the pres ence of scale was also without represen tation in the meeting. President Cunningham says, however, that he hopes to get 'both these places rep resented and goes down to Cuthbert today to arouse interest in the movement to se cure the sale of the fruit at the shipping point for cash or at the centers in the auction markets. President Cunningham say that he be lieves that there will be comparatively lit tle fruit sent to the commission men this year, and some of the representatives of the east 'who are here share that opinion and are making their arrangements to buy the fruit here. The old officers of the state association were re-elected. IMr. Dudley Hughes, of Danville, on the Macon and Dublin Rail road, is the president of the state associa tion, and by virtue of that office is vice president from this state of the National Union, with headquarters in Chicago. 'President Cunningham and others who know what they are talking about, and •who have made a practical test, of the shipment of fruit on the old plan to the commission men, say that if that plan is followed this year, it means the death of the industry practically in this state. They say that if this crop is not made’ a finan cial success, and that success can only be achieved by the plan outlined by them— the sale of the fruit at home 'for cash or through the authorized agents of the union —the growers will be discouraged and the orchards will be abandoned. On the con trary If the crop Is a- financial success the interest, in the business will steadily in crease and Georgia will be the banner peach state of the union. Yellow Jaundice Cured.

The 'principal feature of the very short meeting of the city council last night was a resolution introduced by lAlderman C. D. Pearson recalling the terrible tragedy on the preceding Tuesday night in which James Kershaw was killed in Randall’s bar. In view of the fact that Kershaw was a minor and that he was found drinking in the bar the resolution provided that Randall be summoned before the recorder and that the matter be investigated and if it was found that he sold to minors he be deprived of his license. William Prichard, H. E. Prichard and J. iE. iFlynn asked for the right of way to run telephone wires through the streets of Macon for a telephone line from Dublin to Macon. The petition was referred to the committee on streets. In view of the fact that the other tele phone company is compelled to run its wires under ground it is not known what action the committee can take in the mat ter as there is an ordinance covering this. It is thought that this is a connection of the long distance telophonc from Savannah to 'Macon. The Southern railway has determined not to comply with the request of the city to put down a sidewalk on its property on Ocmulgee street and it is to be presumed that that settles it. The sidewalk was ordered laid down but the railroad does not want to comply and thinks that that should be enough. •But the city will look into the matter and will probably ask the railroad again to do its duty and to comply with orders as a citizen should or failing that the city will put down the sidewalk for the rail road and charge it up. Aiderman Meyer took occasion to draw the attention of the city council to the color of the water and the matter was re ferred to the proper committee who will bring in a report next week. , By that time the water will be cleared. The time taken up by the meeting was about twenty minutes. IN THE RAILROAD WORLD. Matters of Interest in Macon and Else where. The earnings of the Central of Georgia Railroad during the third week in May were $75,55, against $77,220 for the same week last year. The total earnings since January 1 were $1,987,414, against $1,943,- 771 for the same period in 1897. The earnings the Georgia and 'Ala bama for the third week in ’May were $22,159, an increase of $3,658 over the cor responding week in 1897. The earnings from last July 1 to May 23 were $1,102,403, an Increase of $182,801 over the corres ponding months the previous year. A Kansas paper explains why a locomo tive is like a woman, and is called “she:” “They wear a jacket, an apron, have shoes, hose, and drag a train behind them; they have a lap. need guides, ride wheels, will not turn out for pedestrians, sometimes foam and refuse to work; they attract the men, sometimes act very contrary, and it always takes a man to manage them.” The proposition to join the federation of the various railway labor organizations was considered by the Brotherhood of Lo comotive 'Engineers at the biennial meet ing in St. Louis 'Monday night, and, after a lengthy and animated discussion, was defeated, the vote standing 265 for to 290 against. The question of federation in some form has come before every biennial meeting of the engineers for the past ten years, but it has been strenuously opposed by the older and more conservative mem bers of the brotherhood, and each time it has met with defeat, only to come up again at the next meeting. The Pennsylvania railroad, which had planned to spend $10,000,600 in improve ments this year, will, it is stated, bold the work in check until the war is over. A director of the company is quoted as fol lows in the Philadelphia Press: "Ail work, unless it is absolutely necessary, has been stopped, and nothing will be done as long | as the uncertaintj' prevails. We had plan ned to spend $10,006,000, and most of it would have been used this year if there i had been no war. We do not know how . long it will last, and it would be foolish i for us to lay out a large sum of money : when the affairs of the nation are in such I a state.” • Dannenberg Co s White Silk Parasols, plain and ruffled SI.OO, $1.50, $2.00 Changeable Silk Taffeta Umbrellas, nat ural handles, steel rods, paragon frame, $2.50 quality f0r51.79 : Children’s School Umbrellas, Gloria Serge, I natural handles, steel rodsoc NOW THE GIRLS CAN JO HOME Commencement at Wesleyan is Over and Last Work is Done.

Miss Blaydes is such an accomplished and cultured teacher in her line that naught but excellence is ever ex pected in her pupils, and their recitations last evening gave evidence of careful and skilled training. The program as pub lished in yesterday’s News, was brilliantly executed, and the audience felt themselves indebted to Miss Blaydes and her pupils for an evening of pleasure. The closing exercises of Wesleyan com mencement took place this morning in the college chapel, and were witnessed by the largest audience of commencement.

The essays by the four young ladies who read were of a remarkably high order and did great credit both to themselves and to their teacher, Mrs. John B. Cobb, whose ability is too well known to need com mendation. Miss Lucy Evans of Atlanta, held close attention of the audience and delighted everyone with her essay on Wo men on School Boards. The men in thp audience seemed as much pleased with the essay as did the women, and Miss Evans was frequently applauded. Miss Eloise Pickett, who received the first honor in the class, delivered <a short, but beautiful diplomas were then conferred by Dr. Ham diplomas wer then conferred by Dr. Ham mond on the following young ladies: Mists Martha Rhydamia Adams, Miss Martha Christine Brown, Miss Cassie Geromia Clark, Miss Marney Louise Earle, Miss M.
