4 Generating Apparatus EXPlodes in
Russal's Grocery StOre-The Operator
Wounded by the Flying Fragments
Heavy Copper and Lead Bent Like
Pieces Of Tin.
People in the vicinity of Barnard and
BroughtOn streets and Market square,
were startled b. a loud explosion about t
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. 1t was i'm
possible for moment to locate its origin,
and there was a general rush into
the street. Everybody was eX-
cited. 1t was soon asceTtained that
Russak's grocery store, No. 221l Barnard
street. was the scene of the disturbance
A MORNING NEWS reporter was on the
spot shortly after the explosion occurred,
and learned that a soda water generator,
operated By a cOlOred man named William
Brown had exploded with terrific violence,
Gripping the operator and shaking up
things in the store at lively rate.
The apparatus was in the rear part OF
the store. The negro, as far as could be
learned. was standing by the side of the
generator turning it, when, without
warning. it exploded, tearing away the
whole side of the heavy copper chamber,
and hurting the negro among lot of bar
rels standing near by. One Of the pieces
struck him on the right leg near the
thigh. cutting a deep cash and becoming
almost imbedded in the flesh.
The clerks employed in the store rushed
back TO where the apparatus was and
pulled out the negro from where he lay.
He was able to stand up. and for mo-
ment it was thought that he had escaped
uniniured. An examination of his leg
showed the wounds to be deep. but IL was
impossible to tell whether the bone was
broken or not. He was removed TO
his home on Pine and st. Gaul
streets. and DR.. Harris summoned to
attend him. A more careful examination
showed that the thigh kwas fractured.
Brown had been operating the apparatus
for the past seven years. and was believed
to be a competent and careful man.
In the manufacture Of soda water, the
generating apparatus consists Of two sec
tons. one containing soda, and the other
vitriOl. The vitriOl is let in upon the soda
drop by drop. and creates the. gas, the
quantity Of which, as it is produced, is
indicated by a gauge. Mr.. Russak said
to the reporter that Brown had in
structiOns to watch the gauge
closely, and when he saw that Ii
showed a pressure of over $50 pounds to
let some Of the gas escape, and never I'M
der any consideration 10 permit the pres
sure 10 20 as high as 200 pounds, as there
would be danger OF an explosion. IL was
evident either that the negro had
been careless in allowing the
pressure 10 run beyond that
limit or that something was wrong
with the apparatus. The generating
chamber is enclosed by heavy copper
tom * To a of an inch in thickness lined
with lead. This was rent in pieces and
the fragments twisted as though they
had been sheets Of tin. The explosion
created intense excitement for a time
until II was learned that no one had been
Killed and that the extent of the damage
was tri1ing.

They Wipe out the FIOridians by
Score of to 5-The Game with the
Dixies To-Day.
A fair crowd witnessed the OglethOrpe-
Gopher game at the Base Ball Park yes
terdav. The rafting defeats the Gophers
have met with during their Georgia trip
have warped their courage, and they
went into the field with anything but a
firm grip on their confidence. Those
who witnessed the splendid game last
Saturday. and the hard fight they
made the Dixies. were looking for
a much better game yesterday than
was PLAYED. 1t was an easy walk over
for the OylethOFpes. IL was understood
that Norton would 90 into the box for the
Gophers. with Higgins behind the plate,
but before the game began some changes
were made, and Hill went in instead of
Norton.
The GOphers won the toss and
sent the OglethOrpes to the bat, shut
ting them out in the first inning with
out n run. HOggins led of for the
visitors and stole around the base line,
crossing the plate on an error OF wells.
This was the first run of the game. COlly
welded the ash for the home nine IN the
second inning to the tune OF base hex,
getting to second on a passed ball OF Hog
gins and home on foul ny.
This wound up their score for
awhile. In the next inning both mines
were shut out, but in the fourth inning
Banet and CullOm popped across the
plate. making the game look haZy for the
visitors. The GOphers went in for the
fourth time, Higgins making first on
called balls and second on error Of O'COn-
nor. Wells made his base on error OF
O'CounOr. and HOggins went home closely
followed by Wells, who scored on a passed
ball. Hill went out at first. GuinOt
made a base hit, stealing to second.
Whitehead went out on fly to Miller.
and GuinOt scored on a foul fly.
Comm scored for the OglethOrpes in the
| fifth inning, and the GOphers were BANKED.
In the sixth inning both the Oglethorpes
and GOphers were shut out. In the seventh
| things began to look like close pull. The
/ OgIethorpes went to the bat with Tanning
/ out on a fly, captured in fine style by Gull
not. The rest of the inning was failure to
\ get further than first base. Guinot made
/ a two Dagger for the visitors and got
/ home on a base lick by Whitehead. john
| son returned the compliment and brought
/ Whitehead across the plate. In the last
| inning Rossiter led off with a base hit
/ and started out on a round around the
/ diamond. Wild throwing brought him
| across the plate without a stop. The
/ GOphers closed the game with a blank.
| The Oglethorpes' battery was in hne
| trim and did pretty work. CullOm covered
| first base in good shape. Hill, for the
/ visitors, pitched a pretty curve, but Hog
/ gins failed to show up his usual cOlOrs.
| The following is the score:

THE FIRST NEW RICE.

4 Visit to the Upper Rice AIilIs-FaYOra-
BILE Reports from the Plantations.
Reports from the rice plantations in
Georgia and in South Carolina, on the
Savannah and New rivers, are very
favorable. 1t is said that the crop pros
poets are better than they have been for
several years, and if there is no heavy
gale before the crop is harvested the out
put will be much beyond the average.
Habersham's( Upper Rice Mills started
I'D Yesterday for the season on the first
new rice. The rice is part of the crop of
Mr.. James S. Bailey, of Satilla river, Ca,
and is consigned to Capt. Fred. Nj. Hull.
The turn out is of excellent quality.
The No. 8 has been put in thorough or
der during the summer by the Superin-
tendent, Mai. n. o. Tilton. All the drop
pestles have been taken out and seven
pair of McKinley's crank pestles SUBJ
stituted. This change increases the ca
pacity of the mill from ,, 600 to $500 bushels
of rough rice in days run of fourteen
hours. The entire machinery has been
overhauled, and. in addition to the usual
screens, ssshakers" have been put in for
the purpose of winnowing the grass seed
and indigo that may pass through the
screens. Mills Nos. l and will be used

Sneak Thieves Get in Their Work and
bag q $500 Haul of Jewelry.
The residence of Auditor f. II. ThOm-
son, Of the Central Railroad, was the scene
Of a daring robbery last night. Mr.. Thom-
sons residence is on Montgomery street,
corner of Jones. During the evening while
the family were engaged in various parts
Of the house negro thief sneaked in, and,
stealing up stairs, opened, by means Of
false KEYS. a trunk and bureau containing
a collection of valuable jewelry. After
ransacking the rooms and Overhauling
the clothing in the trunk, he selected a
ladies' full-jeweled gold watch and chain
with diamond setting, valued at $3.50,
silver watch and chain, several gold
rings with topaz and amethyst set
tings, and a number of other
trinkets of less value, with a
quantity of clothing, and was coming
down stairs when Mr.. John Thomson, who
was sitting in the rear parlor, heard the
stair creak, and, seeing the shadow
Of man, jumped up just as
the fellow reached the bottom stair
and drawing his revolver fired at him.
The negro lodged as the bullet struck the
wall just over his head. He sprang for
the door and as he went out Mr..
he had reached the street and disappeared.
An investigation revealed the loss of val
uables to the amount of not less than
$500. The opening Of the trunks
and bureau where the jewelry was,
showed that the thief was familiar with
the premises. The fact that he used
skeleton keys was an evidence that
the job was planned to succeed.
10 was evident from all appearances
that the thief was not alone. He prOba-
bly, had an accOmplice waiting outside in
the street to warn him Of any Interrupt
ton, and to take the plumber as
his pal left the house. In his hasty flight
a topaz ring, with diamond setting, was
dropped on the floor, showing that his
operations were disturbed in some way.
Mr.. Thomson has a suspicion as to who
committed the theft and has placed the
case in hands of detectives. The police
we're not advised of the robbery, and al
though it occurred about O'Clock 1t was

The Proposed Steamboat Line Between
Savannah aud HawkinsViIle.


Correspondence Of the Morning Ne1os.
PINEY BLUFF, GA, Aug. 2T.-W along
the banks of the Altamaha river have
scanned with interest every move which
has lately been taken tending to the es-
Enlistment of line Of steamers between
Savannah and Hawkinsville, and heartily
indorse the sentiment of Savannah in
lending its aid to the furtherance of the
scheme, believing as we do that she will
be much benefited by its contamination,
not only in securing cotton receipts from
Middle and Southwest Georgia which
might find its market elsewhere, but also
by iudiciOus effort on the part OF Savan-
nah in consolidating the trade OF the
Altamaha and Ocmulgee rivers, which to
some extent is at present divided. To
merchants and manufacturers in this ter
ritOry the prOsDect of a line insuring a
lower rate of tariff and prompt delivery
Of goods in good condition, will
be hailed with gladness, and to the
support of such line it will
be no difficult task to obtain the undi-
yided patronage OF nearly all the business
men on the rivers above named. Oar
present freight facilities are very unsatis-
factory, as our freight bills show that we
pay to s per cent. on the cask of groce-
ries when shipped via the joint transpOr-
tatiOn of rail and steamer. All rail rates
are not excessive. but to parties in this
section who receive goods by that line at
the nearest railroad station the cost of
wagoning renders this route equally as
expensive. Should this steamboat line
be established, and there is no doubt of
its practicability and beneficial influence
over the commercial interests of the cOun-
ty.r- fn
EXPECT through the efforts of our coming
Congressman, Mr.. Norwood, an apprO-
priation which would so improve naviga-
ton that boats could be run over the
entire line during our dryest summer
seasons. y.

Freight and Passenger Rates to be Ruth
IessIv Slaughtered.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-Something of
sensation was caused to-day by the re-
ceipt of a letter from Commissioners Fink
to Joint Agent. Moore, of the East Bound
Freight Pool, authorizing a reduction in
the rate on cattle to 20 cents per 100
pounds, the former rate be-
ing 80 cents. and on dressed
beef to 81 cents, the former rate
being As cents. The cause assigned is
that some lines in the pool have been cut
ting rates and it was thought best to
teach the offenders a lesson. 1t is stated
that the complaints of cutting rates on
grain and hog products are frequent.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2S.-Official in
formation was received in this city to-day
that one of the principal trunk lines was
selling large blocks of tickets to and from
Chicago at S12. 1t was stated in railroad
circles that this was thought to be the in
ceDtIOn of more extensive cutting. The
road charged with the offense is to be in
yestigated, and if it does not amend its
course others will follow the cutting and
