Rawlings Crowd Get a Respite for
Another Month.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 2.—The tearful
pleadings of Mrs. Rawlings has se
cured for her sons, Milton and Jesse
an additional respite of thirty days
each. She and Attorney John Cooper
and Squire J. J. JowerB, of Coffee
county, appeared before Governor
Terrell and presented a petition
signed by six hundred names of per
sons who urged upon the chief ex

This was due to the storm that
ravaged all the southern states dur
ing the week Just past. That it will
have a damaging effect upon the
quality of the crop is the opinion of
the buyers of Thomasville.
Owing to the advanced stage of the
crop it Is not thought likely that the
quantity will be lessened to any con
siderable extent, but the quality will
doubtless be much poorer than the
normal yield.
The storm was general throughout
Alabama, Mississippi ahd the south
ern part of Georgia. Texas seems to
have escaped. Word from there is
to the effect that the Lone Star state
is sitting steady in the boat and that
the crop will be nothing , les than a
whale. This Is about all there Is to
comfort the bears in the reports for
the last few days.
Many farmers were in Thomasville
Saturday selling their cotton. They

COTTON HAS THE AVTLT.
Crop in Dooly <’«nrnty i* in ]
SI in pc.
Atlanta. Ga., Oct. 2 —It has been
found that the cotton crop in Doooly
county has been seriously affected
i disease known as bluck root or
•wilt.” The devastation of the crop
1t is said, extends over a Wide urea
in that county. As a result Assis
tant State Entomologist A. C. Lewis
went there to investigate the matter
He has returned to the city with
samples of the diseased cotton and
will shortly issue a report regarding
it. So far the only known remedy
seems to be in careful selection et
seed and rotation of crops.
Convicts on Street Work.
Waycross, Ga., Oct. 2.—On ac
count of the scarcity of labor the
city authorities are on a trade with
W. M. Toomer for from 35 to 65
convicts to work Ion the ^streets of
Waycross. The city has maintained
a chaingang of its own for several
years, but it is now so small the city

to the city from Atlanta where he
has been on a business trip. Mr.
Williams was in Atlanta last Monday

ness played havoc In some cases,
while others said that the damage
was less than might have been ex
pected. But the storm certainly did
not help the crop, and confirms the
previous estimates made by this pa
per of between forty and fifty per
cent of the crop off for this year.
“Owing to the advance stage of the
crop,” said one broker last night,
doubt that the damage will be suffi
ciently serious to make it disastrous.
Had the storm come a month ago, it
would have been a catastrophe. I be
lieve it will bo found that much of
the open cotton was blown to the
ground, und in that way soaked to
that it will be useless. I supj>ose
also, that many of the stocks were
blown down and twisted so that the
cotton on them will be ruined. The
general effect will be a deterioration
of the quality. I believe, rather
than a lessening of the yield.”
