INJURED BY THE RAINS.


The heavy rains during the past three
weeks have caused great damage to the
vegetable and fruit crops throughout the
southeastern part OF the state. The losses
in the peach wing section in Washing
ton county aud at various points along the
Central railroad are very heavy.
Up TO about two weeks ago the pros
poets were that the peach crop would be
larger than it has been for years. The
almost incessant rains that have fallen
since then have greatly damaged the
prospects. No peaches have been re-
ceived In Savannah since last Thursday,
owing to the washouts On the Central
railroad near Davisboro, which is in the
heart of the peaoh-grOwing country. The
ir4t trains are expected through to-
morrow, and the marAet will then be sup
Piled? Gne last fruit that was received
here was poor and was sold Tor almost
any price. Much Oft rOtted in the dealers
hands before 1t could be disposed of.
Owing TO the delay in the mails very
few adVices have been received for over
week, and these have been incomplete
and did not give much OF an idea OF the
general condition OF the crop. The melon
crop is also injured, aud the fruit is drop
ping from the vines. The melon season is
not quite a it's height. This weeks ad-
vices will most likely show what the crop
will be.
Farm crops generally on the lowlands
throughout the Southeastern section are
in bad condition. In many places, owing
to the uyerflows farmers nave been unable
to plant at all. The corn crop is. how
ever IN fine condition, and the prospects
are for Il good yield. II the wet weather
continues farmers will be unable to clear
their fields of grass and the cotton crop
especially Will suffer more injury than
it has already.
In this immediate section the rains have
been heavier than they have been further
up in the state. On the truck farms
around the city the vegetable inter
ests have suffered heavily. The melon
crop is much injured, the fruit cracking
and dropping from the vines. The tomato
crop IS badly injured and other vegetables
have been more or less hurt. The only
vegetable which has thrived during the
wet spell is the sweet potato, which is
growing rapidly and gives indications OF
a fine yield.

RAIN HURTS THE COTTON.
PROGRESS or THE CROP DUR
ING THE PAST MONTH.

Long Continued Wet Weather Retards
It's DevelOpment-The Condition of
the Crop slightly Below Fair-Ihe
Outlook for an ImprOvement-The Best
Cotton in the southwest Section.
The weather during June was not IA
vorable for the cotton crop. 1t was less
favorable than it was at the same
time year ago. In consequence the
general outlook is considered consid-
erably less satisfactory than at the
same time last year. Taking the
South as whole. the conditions did not
gain anything during June. While the
reports from three states are very good,
the preponderance OF unfavorable reports
from other states is such as to show the
crop to have been almost at standstill
in the matter of progress.
In Texas, Arkansas and Florida the
plant conditions will rank as good, and,
indeed, in the first two States Will eX-
coed the good conditions of last year. In
North Carolina also the outlook is nearly
good and will equal last year. In South
Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee the gen
eral condition and outlook will rank as
fair, and will not equal last year. In
Alabama and NJ ssissippi Things are be-
tween fair and bad, and IN the latter state
especially the condition Of things is ia"
from favorable. Louisiana is rather
mixed, the Mississippi side Of the state
returning rather an uufayotaDle report,
while on the Texas side things seem well
toward good. The chief reason for,
the rather untayOrabie crop conditions
Is to be found in the prevalence OF long
continued rains and the consequent
growth of grass. The trouble, however,
is one whlca may be successfully com
bated in the majority of cases with the
continued spell OF dry weather. In view
OF the long continued wet weather dur
ing the past month the result of the strug-
gle with the grass is yet to he learned.
1t is too early yet to speak with certainty
of the outcom of the fight. The con
dtoD otthe crop at this time last year was
exceptionally good, bot reVerses came
later which reduced the ultimate yield.
On the other hand the situation, which
may now be characterized as slightly
below far, may improve materially as the
month advances. Indeed, the present
month is a critical one in tue life OF the
plant.
The following table from Bradstreet's
will show the condition and prospects OF
the crop:

Louisville has sent Neal home to Gre
cuperate."
Savannah now has the three greatest
back stops in the Southern League. Gill
len, Arundel and Sutcliff.
The Sporting Life says that Charley
Morton resigned the American AssOcia-
tiOn umpIreship because he wouldn't
stand the abuse and his voice gave out.
The Atlanta Constitution ranks Savan-
nah third in the league. If the Atlanta
Constitution man will take the pains to
figure out the position of the clubs he will
find that Savannah is less than .0Ol be-
mind the Atlanta team.
Sam Jones SAYS: "There is something
wrong when preacher gets $500 and u
base ball pitcher gets s. ,000." The Sport
ing Life replies: mot at all, Mr.. Jones.
If the devil could made as few base hits of
the preacher as ball players can off the
pitcher, the preacher would probably be
getting $4,000, too.'
After a weeks hunt for base ball play
ers in the South Manager Sharsig OF the
Athletics has returned to Philadelphia
without getting a single contract signed.
He started out with his gripsack half full
of blank contracts, aud although beauti-
fully printed, and inducements with n
gold lining were put in between
The trip was absolutely ruthless
Sharsig says he came To Savannah and
Charleston, and goes on % tell mis- story:
"He first made decker for three men
Collins, short stop, Gillen, catcher, and
weighing, pitcher. He offered $1,000 for
the three and little more than twO-thirds
OF that sum tor Collins and Weynng. The
offer was apparently satisfactory and
Billy was told that he could have them
The Savaunahs were 81, 400 behind and
had determined to drop out. BY bad luck,
for us, the Savannahs won that afternoon,
although Sharsig almost prayed they
wouldn't. Then the manager wanted a
little time 10 think. Sharsig went with
the club the next day to Charleston, and
il they had lost there he would have come
out all right. but they didn't lose, and
enough money was taken in TO insure the
Sayauuahs another months existence,
and Billy sadly gave it up. In Charleston
and Atlanta he looked after two or three
men, nut it was no use" Manager Shar-
sig has now gone West.

CHATTANOOGA SHUT OUT.
THE SAVANNAHS DO UP THE
TENNEs SEEANS z TO o.

Only Six Base Hrs Msde-O'Day aud
shreve Pitch Great Game--The VIsI-
tors Errors Shut Them Out-Savan-
nah Gets Shrevs and Arundel-The
Last Game with Chattanooga To
Day.
The biggest crowd that has been ut the
ball ground since centennial week saw
the home club shut out the Chattanooga
yesterday. 1t was a prettily played
game, and was sharply contested. The
visitors put up Shreye and Arundel
as their battery, and Savannah
presented O'Day and Gillen.
Sbreye proved very effective and yielded
buS two hits. He struck out six men.
O'Day was found for four hits and struck
out five men. Shreve is inclined to be a
little wild in his delivery, and gave three
men bases on balls.
The visitors errors lost them the game.
Neither Of the two runs that Savannah
made were earned. The first run was
scored in the third inning. O'Day was
given his base on balls and advanced to
third on a two Dagger by Gilen,
HOtallng was the next man
at the bat, and hit tho ball
n the direction OF second base. Cross
ran for it, and O'Day started home at
tearing pace. Arundel stood on the
plate Yelling. Cross was little slow,
and before he got the ball home O'Day
had scored.
In the next inning MorlarIty led Off
with a hit TO second base. the ball was
fumbied, and he got first. lie stole
second, and advanced TO thlrd
on II throw TO second. Arundel
watched his chance, and as MOriarItY led
OF from his base, quick as lightning he
threw to the baseman. The ball went
wide and MOrarIty scored. These were
the only runs that were made. Lewis
was twice on third base, but each time
O'Day's fatal curves did their work.
The visitors errors We're made at criti-
cal points in the game and were costly.
The home team was only charged with
two errors, one a mutf by MOriarity
and the other by Gillen. The
battery work was the feature of
the game. Lewis sized up O'Day for two
double base hits. Glllen got in two
Dagger on Snreve's delivery, but the few
hits that were made were so scattered
That they were Intellectual. There were
few what might be called brilliant plays.
The crowd numbered upwards OF 1000
people, and it cheered and applauded al
most every play that was made. The fol-
loving is the score:

their friends, followed the yachts. At
the start the Julian was minutes and II
seconds ahead of the Glance.

This makes the tenth game that Savan-
nah has won from Chattanooga, and the
second consecutive game that the visitors
have been shut out. They have played
hard to win every time, but have been un-
fortunate. Luck has seemed against
them. Iney will play their last game
here to-day, and will go to Charleston to-
night. IL was expected that an exhibit
but arrangements have been made
50 that the last deferred game, that, &C
cordng tn the rules, should be played in
Chattanooga, will be played off here.
If Savannah wins, the club will take its
place at the head of the league. Atlanta
Is now only a fraction Of point ahead
and does not play championship game
until the Savannah atlanta games, which
begin here tomorrow. Savannah's bat
terry to-day will probably be Mortarity
and Sutcltle. MOriarity was on
the grounds yesterday in uniform
and reported that he was in condition to
pitch. II he is ali right to-day he will be
put in the box.
Sutciif will arrive this morning. He
was to have been here Yesterday, out the
Augusta management asked that he be
allowed to play ia Yesterdays game at
Charleston, and the request was granted.
The ChattanoOgas' battery will be either
Hart or Shenkel and McClung. The
game will be the last that Chattanooga
Will play here this season.

TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF.
The Steward of the Bark Nellie
Moody Puts Bullet in His Head.

The Steward of the Bark Nellie
Moody Puts a Bullet in His Head.
II. ;. Fowler, lately steward on the
British bark Nellie Moody, attempted to
commit suicide yesterday by shooting
himself in the head.
For month or more Fowler
mas been boarding with Capt.
Daniels. on Houston street, near
Bay. Yesterday morning Fowler shaved
himself and asked Capt. Daniels to walk
up town with him. The Captain had
been waiting some time when be heard "A
pistol shot some distance away. He dld not
mink much OF it until some one came in
and said that a man had shot himself in r
yard back Of a vacant house around the
corner on the Bay. Several went to the
place and found Fowler lying on the
ground with a hole in his forehead.
Or. Brady was called in and ne extract
ed the bullet. 1t had struck bone and
was mashed as fiat as a penny. Some
persons In the neighborhoOd said that
they heard two shots fired. When the
blood was washed from FOwler's face a
slight wound was found higher up on his
forehead. 1t was probably made by the
irst shot. The bullet had glanced With
out going beneath the skin. The wound
is not cOnsIdered dangerous. Fowler IS
apparently 50 years old. He Is "A Nova
Scouan and widoWer with one child,
daughter, who is said TO be married to a
well-t0-do business man. Six weeks ago
Fowler was paid of and received, 1t IS
said, over 500. Since then he has been
drinking considerably, and has lost the
mOst Of his money. 70 that is attributed
his attempt to take his life.
