Creamery at LaGrnngre.
LaGrange Reporter: The LaGrange
creamery has taken a place in the front
rank of Industries of that kind in the
United States. After a thorough test of
the butter made by the creamery, the
chief of the dairy division of the agricul
tural department of the United States
government has given an order for several
shipments of this butter to be made to
Paris where it will be on exhibition during
tha World’s Fair. The first shipment, con
sisting of twenty-nine pounds, was made

A Sunday F'ijjli*.
Griffin Cal!: A fight occurred in West
Griffin, near the Kincaid Mills, yesterday
afternoon, In which one party was prob
ably fatally wounded and another man
badly bruised up about the face and head.
A dispute arose between Luther Hoard
and Will Mahaffee, while in conversa
tion with a young lady. The conversation
between the two young men became
heated, and as we learn. Hoard struck
Will several times, whereupon Will drew
his knife and cut Luther twice, once about
his forehead, the second time severing the
jugular vein. Hoard is in a critical condi
tion, and there is hardly a chance for his
recovery, while his antagonist escaped
with only a few bruises.
Rain Damages Cotton.
Albany Herald: Farmers say that the
steady rains of the past ten days have
had a damaging effect on the cotton crop,
and they are anxiously watching the heav
ens in the hope that fair weather signs
will make their appearance. The extra
ordinary quantity of moisture, in the
ground as the result of such heavy rains
Is causing entirely too much sap to rise
in the cotton plants, and their growth is
so luxuriant that there is a well-grounded
fear that there will be a dearth of blooms
and bolls a little later In the season. The
farmer w-ants “fewer leaves and more
blooms,’* and he now fears, very natural
lyi that exactly the reverse will be the
cake. Some bright, fair weather, with
plenty of warm, steady sunshine, is now
desired above all things else, and every
day adds to the farmer's anxiety for it to
appear.
Rain Threntens Frnlt.
Macon News: The fruit crop is seriously
threatened. Another week of rain will re
sult In incalculable damage. The fruit
growers over the entire state are becom
ing alarmed, and many of them express
the opinion that the late peaches aro al
ready hurt, A prominent fruit grower
stated to a News reporter that the peaches
In some of hts largest orchards were be
ginning to rot. ond that, if the weather
continued for a much longer period the en
tire crop would be ruined. This state of
affairs exists not merely in Middle Geor
gia. but throughout the state, and the
peach crop of 1900 may not be as large by
■ considerable amount as It jias been lit
paft years. The cotton end corn Is being
damaged In a corresponding degree, and
♦ he, fruit growers and planters are becom
ing very much worried. "If these rains
continue for one week longer,” said a
fruit grower this morning, "it will mean
♦he loss of thousands of dollars, and ill
fact the damage can hardly be. estimated.
The peaches will begin to decay, and
when this starts it fs then good-bye to the
whole crop. Ido not hesitate to say that
I consider the present conditions moat
alarming."

Jacksonville Metropolis: The organized
democracy of Duval county will likely,
and should, reach 3,000 votes In November.
This vote can be polled if the Democratic
committee will superintend the registra
tion, and it expects to do it. Every true

Arrest ol n Physician.
Considerable excitement prevailed at the
depot et Weet Palm Beach Sunday morn
inr as the passenger train rolled in from
the South, owing to the arrest of Dr. J.
A McLeay, who was preparing to leave
for the. North. The arrest was made oy
Marshal Jones, on a warrant issued by
E. F. Haiues, charged with practicing
medicine in this city without a certificate
of examination from the etate examining
board. A cash bond of SIOO was demand
ed. which was made by the doctor, who
caught the train and continued his Jour
ney northward.
Not in the Evidence.
Jacksonville Times-Union and Citizen:
The decision in the United States Court
in this city made in the claims of the offi
cers and crew of the United States
steamer Mangrove for the proceeds of
the sale of the Spanish cruiser Panama
and cargo, was announced in the Times-
Union and Citizen of Saturday. Judge
Locke, after long consideration of the
case, allowed the claims of the Mangrove,
and gave to the claimants the entire pro
ceeds of the capture. In the account of
the decision it was mentioned that the
engineer of the Panama had stated that
resistance seemed useless to the Man
grove, although it was of inferior arma
ment, as tht& United States ship Indiana
was in sight ready to come to the aid of
the Mangrove. This statement did not
appear in the evidence adduced in the
case, but was repeated to a reporter for
the Times-Unioa and Citizen by District
Attorney Stripling, who said that remark
had been made to him personally by the
engineer who was quoted.
Florida's Census.
Jacksonville Times-Union and Citizen:
Hon. J. M. Cheney of Orlando, supervisor
of the census for Florida, spent a short
time in the city yesterday, and in an In
terval of his labors, he spoke of the prog
re§s of the census taking in Jack
sonville. He said that he was perfectly
satisfied rhat the returns, as made by his
enumerators, will be as complete as they
can be made by any agency. He had, he
said, investigated every complaint that
hod been lodged against the work of his
men, since attention was called to it by
the action of the Board of Trade last
week. Every complaint, he said, had been
met. and in a number of instances it had
been shown that there was no cause for
such complaint. When the Board of Trade
took action in the matter there remained
several days in which the census was ro
be completed, and this explained the omis
sion of a number of persons who had not
been reached, but who were still on the
books of the enumerators to be visited.
He believed that in two instances the
complaints had been based on good rea
sons, which was owing to a mlsundsr
standing ae to the boundaries of certain
enumeration districts, by which two large
buildings were omitted. This error had
been rectified, and he believed there would
be no further cause for complaint.

CONVENTION’ STORIES.
A Southern Delegation'* Visit to the
Woodruff Headquarter*.
The headquarters of the Hon. Timothy
Woodruff had a good many visitors to
day, says the Sun's correspondence. A
good many of the pilgrims who went to
the mint on the wejeome invitation, find
ing that Institution closed went to Mr.
Woodruff's headquarters. In the crowd
were two colored men from a Soui it
em state. They got inside the door and
announced: "Were delegates, boss; we
think powerful well of Wocdruff down our
way.”
The Hon. Timothy was not around at
the time, but the man in charge told
them he was very glad to hear mat and
trusted they would stick to Tim.
“Yes, we think powerful well of Mr.
Woodruff," said one of the delegates.
"Yes, yes. we are glad to hear that,"
said the man in charge, and he turned to
greet somebody else. The two stood mere.
"Yes," said the spokesman again, when,
he thought he reached the ear of the
Woodruff man. "we think powerful well
of Mr. Woodruff down our way."
The Woodruff man kept talking to other
people. The delegates stood still. Fin lly
the spokesman of the pair coughed. The
Woodruff man looked around.
“Fact is.” said the spokesman when 1c
saw the Woodruff -tan's eye on hlu
again, "we have a small Bap.ist church
down in our town and we’ve got a mort
gage on It and it is pofverful haid to laise
money these days, powerful hard. You
see, besides being up here as delegates,
we want to raise SSOO to help out that
church."
The Woodruff man's back was turned
by this time and the. spokesman, af.er
waiting a moment, sait^:
“Yes. yes; we did think powerful vveil
of Mr. Woodruff down our way,” and
there was a heap of emphasis on the did.
Then they went out.
Getting Their I’ictnre* “Took.”
A flashlight photographer app?arrd n
the Walton to-day, bent on taking pic
tures of all the headquarters which are in
the big hotels. Thel-e weren't a great
many statesmen of nati r.al repuiation
hanging around the cornd 1* or in the
delegation headquarters, but the visitors
who were present were ail anxious to
have their pictures taken. Wherever the
flashlight man set up his apparat is a big
crowd gathered, the Soutnern delegates
showing a particularly strong and lie to
have their pictures taken. They follow
ed the photographer from New Yo k's
big room at the end of the main corri
dor to the Assembly Hall w hich the Ohio
delegates occupy,, and from there to the
small room wdtieh is the headquarters of
the Connecticut outfit. When photo
graphs are finished the\ will show that
the delegates from ail the states hear a
most striking resemblance to one another.
Green of Texn*.
The best thing here, outside of the mint
is deciaral by the Texas delegates to he
the Hon. Edward Green, the son of Mrs.
Hetty Green, the richest woman in Amer
ica. That is to say, a portion of the
Texas delegation makes thi- declaration,
while the balance of it declares that the
Hon. Edward Green is the worst thing on
deck. They had an all-fired hot fight in
Texas this year for the selection of dele
gates to attend this convention. Congress
man Haw ley wanted to possess himself of
the whole tiling, and Mr. Green w is Just
a. anxious.* The result of this is the hot
test contest that there is likely to be in
the whole convention. Hawley lias the
best of it, for the National Committee
gave him eighteen delegates to Green'*
ten. But the Greenites. under the leader
ship of "Goose Neck Bill" McDonald, are
going to carry the contest before the con
vention if they can.
The Hon. Mr. Green's delegates are most
of them typical Southern colored men.
There are typical colored Southern men
too. *n the Hawley delegation. One of
them Bt the Waco convention, where the
deiegates-at-largo were nomina'ed, said:
"Mr. Chahman. Mr. Chnhman, I don't
like this heah man Green; he goes around
this heait state in his private paycah
1 haling all the niggers in the stale. Yes.
Mr. Chahman. that's what he do. He
comes to this heah town of Hillsboro in
his private pay cah and he sends out
around the country for the colored people
to come in. and what does he do? Does
he give them busthead whisky, what's
good enough for them'’ No, Mr. Chah
man. they come down to his cah and they
go inside, and this man Gteen he
pulls out those long bottles of what you
call It. wihite sealskin champagne, and he
gives it to 'em. He spiles the bowels of
them niggers, and they done been a bust
ing and a splitting evah since."
It need only be added here that, the Hon
Mr. Green's delegates are "a-busting and
a-splitting” around Philadelphia. The
Hon. “Goose Neck" McDonald is one of
the most distinguished delegates there are
so far on the scene. "Goose Neck," to
quote a Texan, is black enough to spite
ink. Originally a cotton cutter in the cot
ton belt in Texas, McDonald rose in the
world to be a school teacher and a politi
cian. Now he has got a white house with
green blinds in Terrell, Tex. Anybody
who has lived in Texas knows what that
means. .For the benefit of the Sun readers
who have not been in Texas it need only
be said that when a man has arisen to
the dignity’ of owning a white house with
green blinds he has reached the pinnacle
of fame. “Goose Neck" McDonald entered
politics in 1896, coincident with the son of
Hetty ’Green, and of him it is now said
that there is no more able colored polti
cian in the state.
Even Electrici'ty Goes Slow.
A delegate from West Virginia was
seated in the cafe of the Hotel Bellevue
near a touch huttorjr which he poked vi
ciously every few moments, says the Tri
bune's correspondent. As no waiter an
swered hi# call, his anger arose.
"What is the matter?” asked Col.
Thomas G. McKell, the well-known coal
operator and financier of Ohio.
"I can't get any answer to this call,"
he replied.
“You blithering idiot, don't you know
this is Philadelphia? The electricity has
not got to the office yet."
"Tim" and Hi* Tally-ho.
The candidacy of Lieut. Gov. Woodruff
is causing a great deal of quiet amuse
ment here. "Timmy," as all the dele
gates now call him, is about the only per
son, aside from Col. Dady, who takes his
candidacy seriously.
"Tim’s campaign,” said an old Yale
friend of his. "reminds Tne of the first
taliyho he owned. Just after Tim grad
uated from Yale he acquired a tally-ho,
and was very proud of it. He decided
to drive out and show it to his grand
mother. The old lady was very deaf.
They tried to make her Understand that
Tim was going to drive past the house
in a tally-ho, but she could not hear. Af
ter several efforts to make her under
stand. they gave It up. When Tim did
oome along they picked her up bodily and
carried her to the window, and pointed to
the taliy-ho "Oh, I see.” said the old
lady, 'the circus,' and then she went on
with her knitting. The convention is go
ing on with its knitting.’’
An I'unnswercd Query.
John r. Pettlnger. consul general at
Montrial, is hire trying to get a plank
In the platform recommending the in
crease of consular salaries, says the
World's spe ial "I thought I would be
able to 10 save a little money.” Mr. Bit
t nger said “on my $5 500 salary, but I
spend it all and $2,500 a year out of my
own pocket for the privilege of serving
my country.”
A lu:ik Texan looked Mr. Bittinger over,
"Why don't you resign?" he asked.
Mr. Bittinger has not yet framed his
reply.
< urc for Fold Feet,
There was a little poker game at ons
of the ho els last night. One of the
Arkansas delegates was in It. He lost
steadily and to a Mississippi man. At mid
right the Mississippi man stacked up hi*
chips and said: “We i, I guess I'll quit.”
The Arkansan looked longingly at the
stacks of bluts that represented his
money, tore open Ills coat and vest,
and, leaning across to the Mississippi
man. said: "Here, if your feet is cold
just warm ’em in my buzzom."

Morning News. Office, Savannah,
Ga., June 19. Spirits remained firm
at 43% cents, with sales of 5,0
at the opening and 200 at the close.
The market developed a weakening ten
dency towards the close and if this be
maintained a slight decline may be ex
pected. Buyers were offering 43 cents free
ly yesterday, but seemed unwilling to go
above that figure, and unless there be
some change in the situation the indica
tions are that they will carry their point.
Receipts heretofore have been applied
pretty freely to contracts, the result be
ing that factors are likely to have con

can be aroused among the buyers the

COTTON FUTURES,
New York, June 19.—The cotton market
started to-day with prices 1 point lower
to 1 point higher, and for a time movc-d
scarcely a hair's breadth in either direc
tion, with business Immediately following
the call singularly flat. Wet weather in
the Mississippi Valley regions, and parts
of the Atlantic states, together with
strong late English cables, subsequently
brought about a sharp upward movement
which carried August to 8.38 c, nnd Jan
uary to 8.60 c. Shorts became apprehen
sive of a "round up" particularly ae the
rumor gained circulation that the weekly
government report would indicate n poor
crop outlook. But towards midday
aiarming war news began to sift it from
the Far East, and very friendly weather
predictions made their appearance
Shorts were quick to note the change in
influences, and only more figured as sell
ers, while considerable amounts of long
cotton were forced upon the marked
Prices dropped quickly under this pres
sure which continued into the early afte--
noon. August declined lo 8 3tV end Ten
uary toT.Soc. The official statement from
Washington was fully in fine with predic
tions, but fell flat as an Influence the
market responding barely two points and
then dropping back to the lowest level of
the day The close was quiet and steady

COTTON LETTERS.
New York. June 19—Hubbard Bros. &
Cos. say: Liverpool disappointed the
trade this morning, though subsequent
advances placed that market at an ex
cenent parity on the distant deliveries.
Our market opened steady, advancing on
local buying o the best quotations In
anticipation of a bullish government re
port for last week. This report was
about what was anticipated, but has not,
so far, attracted the outside buying It
was expected to do by the local traders.
Liverpdbl ‘sold put some of their recent
purchases of August. July was easy on
the pressure to sell by local longs, who
were disappointed the absence of short
buying. Indications for better weather
had much to do with causing the weak
ness before the noon call. Retail and
wholesale cotton goods are reported as In
slack demand at lower prices.
New York. June 19. Murphy
& Cos. say: Cotton in Liver
pool, unchanged on spots; sales, 8,600
bales. Futures opened 2@3 points higher
and closed 3%@4 points above yesterday's
close. This market opened I@2 points
lower on old and about unchanged on
new crops, became easier after opening

cline during the forenoon on unfavor
able crop advices. It became easier after
12 o'clock on longs selling moderately,
and some short sales for Western ac
count.

STOCKS AMI RONDS.
New York. June 19.—The liquidation of
stocks was rather decisively checked to
day. and. as was to be expected, after
the considerable decline of yesterday and
Saturday, there was a sufficient demand
from outstanding shorts to accomplish a
rally In prices. There was no evidence of
any buying outside this narrow profession
al circle, and the demand dwindled away
I to practically nothing, as prices rose, oil
enlarging fraction over last night’s level
; The room traders turned to the long side,
and attempted to bid up prices against
the shorts, but they met with very slight
success, and a late break in the New York
Traction stocks caused a reaction all
around, and wiped out pretty much all of
the early gains. The selling through cxm.
mission houses, which was the meet
striking evidence of weakness in yester
day's market, indicating as it did. the
letting go of stocks by tired investment
holders was on a small scale to-day. SelL
; ing orders of this character caused re
action after the opening rise in sympathy
with London, and the bears started to put
out fresh short lines. But they soon dt
teeted the cessation of i.qukta.ions. t; 0
large borrowing demand for stock# la*
night had served as a warning to the
! bears that the short interest was becoming
rather unwieldy, and they followed Lon
don's example and started to cover. The
market then fell back into its purely pro
- fessional character, and drifted rather
: aimlessly for the rest of the day, net,
changes being slight.
The steel group was Inclined to weak
ness w-ith the exception of Federal Steel
which was firm on expectation of dividend
action on the common this afternoon, t'o‘i
ion Pacific, both common and preferred
Pacific Mail showed notable strength. The
cessation of liquidation seems to hav*
been caused by a revised estimate of thtf
motives of the strength in the whole
j market, additional importance being given
to the fears of European complications
over China, and less apprehension being
felt over the crop situation, fact that
I foreigners were selling ome wheat in this
market <o-day, did not seem to afreet this
feeling. Growing attention is being paid
to the money market outlook, in view of
the shipment of gold to Germany to-day,
and the intention to make further ship!
ments to France on Thursday. It j s f e | t
that this drain on New York’s low level
of surplus reserves, joined to domestic
conditions, must have an early effect in
the local money market. The demand
from Berlin is said to be for the purpose
of meeting the need for the semi-annual
settlements on July 1. This would leave
a short period for the continuance of tho
demand. The Bank of England lost gold
to Germany to-day, and a symptom of its
dissatisfaction w'as the raising of the
price of gold, three-quarters of a penri
an ounce. The price of American eagles,
was at the same time advanced one-half
penny an ounce, raising the question,
whether the Brnlsh Institution is to Join
in the demands being made on New York
for gold. The sub-treasury is just row
making heavy disbursements oh account
of pensions, which have been sufficient
since Friday, to offset the payments made
by the bank, for the gold exported. But
the $75,000,000 deposits, called by the gov
ernment, are due on next Monday, and
no part of the installment has yet been
paid by the banks. Meantime. New York
Exchange with Chicago to-day fell, front
30 cents to 20 cents premium, indicating
a decline in the flow of currency from the
interior to New York.
The bond market was dull and prices
went lower. Total sales, par value, 81 -
275,000.
