little enthusiasm. Mr.. Bisbee violently

GEoRGIA's REPORT.

Georgia reports that rains have been few in
that State this month, and the fruit and cot
ton plant not developed. The top crop is not
as good as last year, but the bottom crop
promises good average crop, though twenty
days late.
Louisiana reports the acreage about the
same and the prospective yield less than last
year. The crop is late and suffering from
drought.
Mississippi reports the crop generally from
ten to fourteen days late. There has been
some suffering from drought in Yazoo county,
lnlurlng cotton on sandy lands.
In south Mississippi the crop is slightly bet
ter than last year, and in the eastern por-
ton of the State the acreage is about the same
and the yield unchanged. Boll-worms are re-
ported in several counties, but there IS not
much fear of their doing any damage.
North Carolina reports drought decreasing
the prospective yield. Cotton is two weeks
late and much smaller than last year No
worms are reported. Picking will begin gem
orally on Sept l3. The wheat and corn crops
are larger and generally better than last year.
South Carolina reports the present
condition of the crop better than
last year, but much injured from rust, which
may cut short the yield. Texas reports the
condition generally unfavorable. A drought
OF two months has injured the crop, particu-
larly IN the central portion of the State, and
cut it short from one-f fifth to a quarter Rain
now would not materially improve its cOnd-
ton.
In Eastern Texas, around jefferson, the
crop is better, and larger yield is expected
than last year. Rust is reported in several
localities. The grain crop is not much in
lured by drought, having generally matured
before il came

Burned at a Dangerous Hour.
AsBURY PARK, n. j., Sept. THE
Hotel Newport, on the north bank OF
Shark river, about two miles south of

this morning. The house, though small,
was one of the finest on the New Jersey
coast. 1t was owned by Charles Bud
meisteT, of New York. The fire started
IN the kitchen addition on the west side.
The flames were discovered by one of the
maid servants, who aroused Adolph E.
Dick, the proprietor.
Mr.. Dick removed his daughter and sis
ter from rooms near the blazing kitchen
and then awakened the guests Of the
house. All of the 125 guests escaped from
the burning building. Some of them saved
their trunks and wearing apparel, while
others lost everything excepting their
night clothes. Mr.. Dick was the only
person injured. He was badly bruised
by trunk which fell upon him after he
jumped from the piazza of the second
floor. The loss on the hotel and furniture
is about $35O,0O0. 1t is fully insured.

coTToNs GROWTH IN AUGUST.
The Showing Made by the National
Cotton Exchange Rather Gloomy.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. Following is
the National Cotton Exchange report of
the growing crop for August, 1894:

the growing crop for August, 1894:
The month of August has proven unfayor-
able for the cotton crop and the condition has
deteriOrated. it being now so as against 81 for
July; IS for June, and 81 for MAY. In the last
report it was said in the Atlantic States,
Alabama and parts of MiSsis-
sippi the crop has grown rapidly,
and is very sappy and exposed to loss of fruit
from a hot and drv spell. This fear has been
realized, and in South Carolina. Georgia, AL
ALBANIA and Mississippi the loss from shedding
and rust has been serious, causing q decline
in condition west of Mississippi. Contin-
ued drought in Texas has further injured the
crop ofthat State, bringing its condition down
quite low, while Louisiana and Arkansas now
need rain, though the damage has not
yet proved very serious. These
two latter States, with Tennessee,
rank the highest. Our meteorological table
shows a lower range of the thermometer than
last year, but rising to excessive figures last
week. The rainfall has fallen below the
small figures of last season. The growth of
the plant has, on the whole, been pretty good
over most of the belt excepting Texas, of
course, and the fruitage fair, but this has been
Offset by shedding. The plant is still back
ward from two to three weeks, and the crop,
therefore, exposed to Vicisstudes from an
early or even average frost. Worms have done
scarcely any damage. Picking will become
general from Sept. TO TO 10, and later in the
northern part of the belt,
