FLORIDA’S NEW INDUSTRY. Mil. T. 11. C.ITHIMWOOD TALKS OF the camava plait. A %<■ Industry tt lilrh Mean* Mach In Florida. un<l Which llrrmli rra> In He an Anarnl Karrru. I HtiNva the Greatest March l*r*- •luclbk I'lnnl Known In ftclcacr. Kar Owtrunktag Ihr I'utaiii-H Well Adapted In Klorida'a Kail) holl and Growers Iterelve Large lletnrua—The I'lnnl.-r* Manufac turing I onipnny and lla Work In Developing the New Industry. Mr. Thoma* B. Ckthorwcod, a lormer wrii known Savannahlan. who la spend ing a few days in the city with frfrnda and relatlvm, tiring* an Intetesting atory of Florida’* new Induatry. the growth and manufacture of cassava. The Morning News ha* had frequent mention of lute of the wonderful proper ilea of the cassava plant, atal the remark able possitdlltle* which It aeetned to offer In return for Intelligent cultivation and handling, Large arena are now under cul tivation in Florida, and the result* term to prove all that ha* been claimed. Mr. Catherwood haa been for the ;#n n.nc moulds In the rfnploy of the Planter* Manufacturing Company of I.ike Mary, Kia.. which is engaged exclusively in the planting iR-l manufacture of <-a**ava 1 < ic.g employee! In an official capacity, Mr. Catherwood’* position gives him ample op portunity to obeeive the various procewee* of cultivation and munufacture and the results obtained. When seen yesterday by a Mormon News reporter, Mr. Catherwood was en tirely witling to give the readers of the Morning New* the benefit of his knowl edge of the Industry, but requested that the Interview be tmpersonal He wa* con vinced, however, that the us of hi* name would serve to give authenticity to the statements which, to many unacquainted with the cassava plant and Its properties, womd seem to be somewhat to.king in au thority. Until within the last year or two Flor idian* pinned uil their ho|>es of fortune, or at least of comfort," said Mr. Cather wood. "to the orange tree, but the *uc ereslon of freexes ha* simply killed that source of Income for some year* ahead. The sandy soil, almost barren to ce reals, can be made to yield rich returns tvben planted with suitable arops. The cassava plant ha* attracted much atten tion, and Northern capital Is being invest ed tti it* growth and cultivation. Ijiml thoroughly yah.ietere for other purposes, are finding ihelr u*e*. for the cassava doe* best on the poor safety soil*, with, of course, fair care and cultivutlon, and the use of proper fertilisers. "Such lands planted In cassava soil* yield, with a minimum of care, and about 3DU pounds of remlizer to the acre, much bower pe< ttnlary result* ttam corn or wheat. Ten ion* of roots per acre is not an abnormal yield. It is tn fact, about the average, amt the starch factories pav to per ton for the roots delivered ut their doors. Tnen the seed, the above ground source of revenue, j* worth considerate, during the past season the average price of sessi was aoout SO cents per hundred feet, and every hill which yield* uhou* ten pounds of root*, will yield also about ten to twelve feet of seed." "The value of the Cassava root lies In it* great percentage of starch. The starch manufactured from cassava Is nearly 100 per cent, stronger than the potato starch, which Is bought In the groceries, and Is really the only starch known to the pub lic. It Is 0 per cent, stronger than the highest grade of starch now made, a product of wheat. The cassava staivh I* stronger than the mucilage of commerce, and to be used must he thinned down by u plentiful supply of water, reducing it at least 0 per cent, below the *ame quan tify of potato starch, or 10 per cent, of the wheat article. “Herein lies It* great value. The great cotton factories of the New England atate* have bought up eargerly every pound of cassava starch placed U|>on the market and that was only a supply of about fifty tons manufactured by the Planters' Manufacturing Company of Lake Mary, fhe result of thetr experi mental run In March. It Is understood that one mill has made a contract with this company for tntrty carloads, of twelve ton* each, of their starch, at a very en couraging price. It Is fortunate for the new Industry, said Mr. Wood that such a company as The Planter* Hr** takes tip the business This company with very large capital, prove* It* faith by Its works. It has bought about three thousand acres of valuable lands and ha* under cultivation about tight hundred acres, divided Into about foriy acre farms, under th< direction of two superintendents. It gives alt Its tlnv and money to the cultivation of cas sava, ami besides supporting Its own force of about ISO laborer*. It furnishes money and supplies to other growers, the ephere of Its Influence extending through out many counties. Starch, dextrine, tapioca amt forlna are all made under patents and processes, the discoveries of Mr. F. O. Perkins, the president of the company, who had been at the head of amt thoroughly conversant with the manufacture of starch from i<o latoes. The company Is possessed of large re sources. ha* put nearly a hundred thou sand dollars Into the business, owes no debts and owns the flnest plant on the American continent for It* purposes. The existence of such a company on Southern soil, hacked by well-nigh unlim ited Northern capital. Is slnqdy another demonstration of the fact that "South ward the star of empire takes It* way." Naturally Mr. Catherwood Is enthusias tic over his company, but as the pioneer In what promises to prove a very Impor tant Industry for Florida the Pin liter* -Manufacturing Company I* undoubtedly entitled to very favorable consideration. It I* to he hotted that Mr. Catherwood has not overestimated the outlook for the new Industry and the results to be achiev ed by the Planters and other companies engaged In It* development.

With the arrest* of the previous day and night, the case* on the Information docket. and the continued cates, the Re corder had quite an Interesting court yes terday. Harry J.

HE A NEW TMIAL. I .Indue \nrnimd Granted One In the I llnniaue *l(tl of Iteberrn Welle. Judge Norwood rendered a decision In the City Court yissterday granting the motion for anew trial made by counsel for the defendant tn the caee of Rebecca Well# against the Brush Electric Light ami Power Company. The decision re cite# that the motion la granted, "there being no objection made by Ihe resjiond ent." Jn thia shape Ihe decision of Judge Nor wood will scarcely prove acceptable and pleasing to counsel for ihe defendant. When the case was last tried the Jury returned a verdict for H. 750, considerably less than the amount allowed the plaintiff by the verdict of previous Juries. She sues for the homicide of her husband, who was a lineman for Ihe defendant company and was killed by the passage of an electric current through his body, while hr was in the discharge, of his duty. When the defendant’* counsel made fit. Ir motion for anew trial, now some weeks Since, Judge Twiggs, of counsel for the plaintiff, rose In his place ami Stated that he would Interpose no objec tion to the grant of the motion—that he, too, was convinced that the verdict was contrary to the evidence. This conviction cf counsel, however. w* bas,d on a dlf-, ferent theory than that of the defendant. The latter theory was that the plaintiff could not recover becau*e there had been r,o negligence shown on the part of the company; the former theory of the In correctness of the verdict was that If the plaintiff was entitled to recover at all She was entitled to recover the value of her hushahd's life, which had been shown to bo more than It.TSO. Counsel for the defendant did not care to have the court grant their motion for anew l rial merely because counsel for the plaintiff assented to It, but wished Judge Norwood to grant tt or overrule It on the grounds set out In it Briefly, these W,re that Judge Norwood had erred grievously In his charge lo the Jury, both In giving tn charge principle* of law that were cither Incorrect In th'mselves or tn appltcabie to the points at Issue In the case, or lo refusing to give In charge principles of law that were correctly stat ed, pertinent to the Issue, and which he had been requested to charge apeclflcally and tn writing Thi further grtund of motion for anew trial was alleged to consist In Judge Norwood’# refusal to grant a non-suit, width he had been asked to declare at the conclusion of the Intro duction of evidence for the plaintiff. It is the contention of the defendant that the court should have ruled poriilvely upon the point# of law at Issue, and. If he still held to his belief In Ihe correct ness of the principles he had given in charge to the Jury, that he should have overruled the motion, and so permute,! ihe when this mutter could have been detcr ri,, lit Judge Norwood believed, on the „tb< ■ hand, that it was ohogether within 1 h legal proprieties for him to grant the motion by consent and without reference lo the weigh; of the ground* set out.

Continuod from Tenth Page. The court decided to retire to consider the objeriion. and. returning after a few minutes, announced that the objection whs overruled. Bergt. Murphy said it was tn the dining room patronised by the Blues tha* the trouble occurred. It was among members of the Blues, and the wltnpas said that nothing save the very promflt and decisive action of Cap*. (’. H. Richardson served to prevent very serious results. The po lice appeared on the scene, the principals in Ihe difficulty were hustled Into the company quarters and the disorder reused. No men were held tinder arreat for partic ipation In the affair. The Judge advocate objected to the wit ness terming the disturbance a riot, whereupon <’apt. t'.inn deflned the heal meaning of a riot, the wlinc.-- then •dy ing that the trouble could not be so term ed. He described the occurrence, telling of Ihe sudden outbreak and the great anger that apparently seixed upon num ber of Ihe men simultaneously. This was the affair In which ex-Corpl. Smith of the company tet)fted that he had received thre,- wound* from a bayonet The witness was asked by Lieut. Har row if he did not know that the dlffliultr had grown out of one member of the comtotny cursing another, and that the great commotion was due to the efforts of friend* to keep the men atvarl. Of hi* own knowledge, the witness did not know that such was the ease. Corpl. Harris was sworn, and, question ed by Capt. Cann. gave hi* story of his treatment In Louisville, hla stay over In *hat city, his return to Savannah, the loss of hi* position and other circumstances. He Instated that he was subjected to in famous treatment, and that meals were not allowed him. He was not permitted to leave his ecu. nor to took oul of the window. He hail not been accustomed to this, and so derided to escape. The accused told of Ids apology and repeated lta language. He was then re leased and returned to the company. He had never shown any disrespect to the of ficers of the company. He Intended *o re turn to the quarters after escaping, and was on his way Kick when apprehended. Intending lo stand hi* punishment and make somebody suffer for It after hi* re turn to Savannah. His counsel here ad monished him that It was unnecessary to sell about what he had Intended doing aft er gelling hack to Savannah. The statement of the accused required some time When hi* counsel had finished the questions by which the statement was drawn out. the court adjourned e* Lieut. Barrow was supposed to have a long rro* examination tn store for Harris. There is considerable speculation a* to the outcome of the case. A great deal of Interest tn It has Iven manifested, a court martial being on unusual feature In Sa vannah. notwithstanding the decided mil itary tendencies of the clly. Various guesses are made a* to what the action of the court may be. hut there Is. of course, no way of telling wh it will be done The guesses range from acquittal t „ dtsmls-al from the service. no one seeming to believe that any misdemeanor punishment will la* Inflicted.
