YUNG-HUNG—FNAN CIAL CONDITIONS OF CCUNTRY SOMEWHAT RELIEVED. Pekin, June 21,—Gens. Feng Kuo- Chang, Ni Shih-chung and Chang Hsun and many other southiern military lead ers have telegraphed io President Li Yuan-hung assuring him of their sup pori. He is very generally supported by the Chinese press in all parts of the republic and there are indications that the southern provinces will of ficially indorse his administiration, al though they are somewhat slow in dcing so and have made demand for the removal of certain cabinet mem bers and adyisers before they fall in line. Strained financial conditions = seem gsomewhat relieved. The new Presi dent has consented to turn over $600,- 000 from his own personal savings to assist in resuming specie payments on the notes of the government banks. The quintuple group of bankers who arc holding $20,000,00 surplus of the salt monopely for the Chinese govern ment have also shown a willingness to turn this money into the treasury. I.i Yuan-hung refused to go to the palace to take the oixcial oath, and was sworn into office in his own home outside the imperial city. The cere mony was of extreme simplicity, and only high officials attended. | Monarchist newspapers seem to be joining with the republican organs in praising Li Yuan-hung. The Li Yuan-hung administration is keeping as far as possible away from the practices of an emperor. Flags are to be flown at half-mast for twen ty-seven days in honor of the lamented president, and all officials are to wear black hands on their left arms after the European practice. - Official en velepes have black borders half an inch in width and are sealed with a black stamp. ~ _l'wo books are provided at the gates }!(-z:zl*ng to the presidential office for the registration of foreigners and Chi nese who call to pay their respects to the memory of the dead president. FLLOODS ENDANGERED PEACH SHIPMENTS S Atlanta, July 22.—The Carolina floods which carried away railroad bridges came near playing havoc with (Georgia p(‘a(sl shipments and had it not heen for tlie quick work of the Georgia TFruit Exchange, in conjunc tion with thé railrocads, many cars would have been lost. All peach business south of Macon had to be diverted by way of Augusta, and the Atlantic Coast Line, while business from the Atlanta, Birming |ham and A{t]ul![ic, and from the Southern to Columbus and William -501, is being sent through Chatta nooga, Knoxville and Bristol. There was a full trainload of peaches in At lanta when the bridges went down. Manager B. J. Christman of the ex change succeeded in getting them out by way of Augusta with only about three hours delay. The railroads have made new arrangemenis with regard to icing cars, and practically no delay is now being expeirenced with the movement. The railroad damage came right in the midst of Georgia’s biggest peachi shipments, when they are movjng at the rate of 100 cars a day, and for a while it looked serious, Dbut every thing has been worked out, even to the supplying of empty refrigerator cars which were also cut off from the ‘uust. but have been secured north and west. On account of heavy receipts of peaches at New York and Philadelphia, some coming from Arkansas and Tex- Aas, there has been a (l('(.']im’. in prices in those markets. The first of the week there were eighty cars in New York of which, however, only twelve were Georgia Fruit Exchange cars. The probobilities are the West ern shippers will net go any more into these markets until the Georgia movement is out of the way. Georgia's big peach shipments will end this week. From then on they will get gradually less. The total ship ments this year will be somewhere close to 3,000 cars or slightly o\'er,th€-I oxchange estimates having been cut down as the result of the heavy rains. | A FAIR B 2 POSITION.

J HARRIS REFRESHES MIND OF DORSEY ON CLEMENCY Atlanta, July 21.—Governor Harris‘ declared yesterday that he will not give Ex-Solicitory Hugh M. Dorsey an other opportunity to side-step the is sue ccncerningv executive clemency by claiming that he “doesn’t recall’ ask ing Governor Harris to exercise clem ency in thirteen cases and waiving ob jecticn to clemency in four others. In his subsequent speeches Govern or larris will take the record along with him and read it, and will read the letters written by Dorsey while he was solicitor, asking that clemency be exercised in behalt of this and that prisoner. : i In his Cartersville speech the gov ernor said Dorsey was going over the state denouncing executive clemency and making it an issue in his cam paign, while on the other hand the record showed the facts above-stated with regard to seventeen cases. The ex-solicitor replied at Dawson and Cuthbert that he “didn’t recall” {hat e had ever asked the governor to exercise clemency. Yesterday the governor “refreshed his memory” by citing the fact that the petitions of the ex-solictor are mat ters of record. There are two cases in which Hugh Dorsey petitioned for® executive clem ency that have not been mentioned as vet by Governor Harris, but his friends are daily urging him to call them to the attention of the people as a final and complete answer to Dorsey’s agi tation in regard to the ‘“upsetting of juries” ete. The governor has been disinclined to make use of these cas es, although the ex-solicitor is directly involved in both of them, and his friends declare it is because of the governor's natural kindness of heart.
