VOICE OF THE RICE PLANTER.
He Wants the Savannah Rice Mills
to Keep Up with the Procession.

lie wants the savannah RlCe Mills
to Keep Up with the Procession.
Editor Morning NeICS: The Charleston
rice mills having decided-sO represented
in the Charleston News and Courier-to
reduce the rate OF milling from 12c. to &c.
per bushel and cost of barrels from Coo. to
40c. and 45c. per barrel, is it not time and
in order that we should hear from the Sa-
Yannah rice mills touching their charges
the present season.
If tue Savannah rice mills adhere to
the rates that have been ruling in the
past-l2c. per bushel. and cost of barrels
60c.-while the Charleston mills are
booked to do the same work, and as sat
isiactOrily, at a reduction of One-third of
this amount, must it. not follow that the
'Old city by the sea" will mOnopolIze the
entire crop, with the pestles in the Savan-
nah mills hung up to keep time TO the
music OF cherries, unbrOken silence.
1t is claimed by parties engaged in the
rice milling business that at SC. per bushel
and 45o. for barrels the interest will prove
remuneratiye.
The rice interest in Carolina and GeOr-
gia is now greatly depressed, cvclonic
vlsitatiOns with crop destruction having
proved the rule instead of the exception,
for several seasons, wrecking at least one
half Of the investment embarked in rice
culture, hence reduction in cost, both in
production and milling, in face OF mini
mum values, cannot lie otherwise than
reasonable and in strict order all along
the line OF charges connected with mark
citing the present crop.
1t is computed. owing to the disastrous
crop results Of 1889 and the spring and
summer foods Of the present season, that
the area planted IN rice has been reduced
One-third compared with the acreage here
tofore under cultivation.

ATLANTA's SHARP METHODS
Savannah Refuses To Play Without
IA League Umpire.

ATLANTA, GA, Aug. 1S.-Large dele
cations from Griffin. Macon, savannah
and other points were in the city today
TO witness the opening OF the great cham
pionship games, and in spite of the
threatening weather an immense crowd
was at the park. Never was such interest
or excitement manifested here. 1t was
discovered before the game that
Umpire McQuade. VINO was here
this morning, had disappeared. He
was reported as saying that
he had an offer of a position by the Amer
lean Association and had to go at once.
His absence at once created trouble.
Atlanta base ball men asserted mysteri-
ously that Haas, Secretary of the Sayan-
nabs, spirited McQuade away. This of
course was ridiculous rumor in view of
the fact that the SaYannaEs have been
demanding league umpire, and
McQuade' absence necessitated a local
umpire. ON the other hand, il is more
than intimated that the Atiantas are at
the bottom of McQuade's disappearance
to bring about just such complications.
When the umpire question came up the
Atlantas insisted ON Stricken. The Saw
annals reminded them how similar
question was generously settled in
Savannah in the absence OF q
league umpire, Savannah waving her
prerogatlNc aud proposing that each club
umpire halt the games. The Atlantas
laughed az this suggestion and demand,d
the rule. savannah yielded 80 tar MS to-
day is concerned, and GunsOn, OF the Al
lanias, was put in a. umpire. Atlanta's
battery was Shatlor and Mappes. Savau-
nah pat up O'DaY and GIilen. the At
la tds made two runs in the NTH inning.
The Atlantas scored two rams In the
seventh inning, but the game was called
before the inning was finished.
The situation Tonight is seriously COM
plcatcd, aud there is a prospect OF no
more games. Secretary Haas and Di-
rectors Martin and Powers bad a
conference tonight rs TO what IL the best
course to pursue. They expressed lhem-
selves Disguised at the unfair ana iiliberal
treatment at the hands OF the Atlantas,
and considered the prupriety OF taking the
team home tomorrow morning. All
thought this the proper course, but they
decided to wait until tomorrow and see
If they will be treated more literally and
fairly.
Late tonight it was decided not TO play
the rest Of the series with a local umpire,
and II the Atlantas insist upou their
claims the club will be taken home to-
morrow night. Secretary Haas is i'm
dignant at the charge made by the At
lantas that be caused the departure of
Umpire McQuade. II is highly probable
that TODAY closed the league games.

They Want Everything

ATLANTA, GA, Aug, 1S.-Umpire Nc
Quade mysteriously disappeared to-day
Just before the game was called. Gunson,
Will accede nothing. They want the Sc
lection OF the umpire and the whole bust
ness. 1t is a perfect farce TO remain and
play and allow such proceedings. 1t was
finally settled By the Savannah directors
tonight that unless Savannah is allowed
to select the umpire tomorrow there
will be no game.

Mrs. Whalcn's Experience with
Laudanum.

Laudanum.
Mrs. Mary Whalen, the woman who
drank three ounces OF laudanum on Mon
day night, is in a fair way to recover.
Her physician yesterday pronounced her
out OF danger. Mrs. Whalen says that
she did not take the poison with suicidal
intent, but took it as a remedy for
cramps. The first dose she drank was a
teaspoonful. After that she took more OF
ne drug, hut does not know how much.
Hec physician applied the most vigorous
treatment, and he states that in few
days she will have entirely recovered.
Mrs. Whalen will probably take lauda-
mum in smaller doses in the future.

MACON, Aug. lS.-MacOn braced up
this afternoon and defeated Charleston in
a prettily played game. A small crowd
was in attendance and there was not
much enthusiasm. Macon did some hard
hitting and good base running, which,
coupled with the several days OF rest the
club has enjoyed, enabled 1t to down the
Charleston boys. The following is the

THE NEW u. O. SITE.

Ii is said that the postoffice department
has made ar order removing the postoffice to
the G.. 4. 4. building. The postmaster has
had no notice of such fact, but we expect the
information is true. There were three points
or locations offered and considered but the
Grand Army boys made such a generous
offer as was hard to get aronrd. However,
as 2 free delivery is TO go in in few days, it
will make little difference TO the people Of
the city The new location will probably ia
convenience the newspaper men more than
any one else. as compared to The old, espec-
tally this paper, which delivers a large
anoun. OF mail matter before daylight six
days IL the week. But We shall not grumble
or find any fault The c. A r. boys showed
great enterprise III constructing such hall
and if the postoffice will help them any we
viii continue as happy as though it had been
placed just across the alley in Snitzier's
building. We expect the east Douglass ave
nue. interests would have desired the David
son & Throckmorton building, but that
place would have been, maybe, just as incon-
venient or more SO. The postmaster general
and supervising architect say.wh6n they get
at the new building it will be rushed. In
the meantime Wichita can't afford to quar-
rel about or over anything-she is entirely
too prosperous and happy for any jealousies

FACTS ABOUT wIcHlrA.

The new directory which is now substanti-
ally comp.e1ed shows that Wichita has a
population Of q, 900, an increase in the last
twelve months of over 5000 There are 5000
names in the directory from the city alone,
last year there were 1880; this year there are
z, 200 names from the thirty other postoffices
in Sedgwick county. There are eight bank
ing houses, fifteen dry goods houses, forty
three grocery stores, twenty-five hotels, be-
sides scores of boarding houses, twenty seven
drug stores eighty attorneys, sixty-one ply
sicians, one hundred and forty real estate
agents, all of whom have regularly established
offices. besides at least two ohundredmode who
are connected with these Offices and
make this their chief business, eight
printing establishments, five arch
itects, ten blacksmith shops, three car
riage makers, four colleges and seminaries,
five iron boundaries and machine shops
twelve hardware stores, nine jewelry stores,
twenty livery stables, tweuty-three loan
offices, five planning mills, eight merchant
tailor stores, ten lumber yards, eighteen
meat markets, and other classes of business
in their proportionate ratio.
During the year ending September. 1st,
1856, thirty-three attorneys, twenty-four
physicians, ninety-three real estate agents in
addition to those. already here have estab-
hshsd Offices. The directory contains 3l3
closely printed pages, is elegantly bound and
printed az the EAGLE Publishing House, and
shows that the publisher, F. A. North, has
done his work with the greatest care and
l,eIsiStence

HERE'S A CHANCE.

There are those who are daft on the subject
OF manufactures for Wichita, just as though
such matters didn't take care of themselves.
Just as though subsidy would make sue
cess of factory when it would otherwise
fail. Factories to succeed must be in response
to demand. And those most successful are
such as find surplus of raw material at
hand Now Mr.. G. T. Wells lays upon our
table specimens of sand and sand rock taken
from a bank on Mr.. Perry's land four miles
south of town, some of which Capt c. 7. Myers
carried back to the Canton, Ohio, glass
works. The proprietors and experts of that
establishment unite in saying that the sand
is IS per cent. pure glass quartz and that
it will make number one plate glass, better
glass than is turned out by them or by any
other factory OF Ohio or of the west. Number
one plate glass, remember. Here's an oppor-
tunity Let this be worked up by our en-
thusiastic manufacturing advocates There
seems to be no mistake or chances of a mis-
take for the supply is unlimited.

DID YDU NOT NOTE IT?

With twenty-four thousand five hundred
people attending the Arkansas Valley fair at
this city Oh last Thursday, and which was
undoubtedly one of the largest crowds ever
seen in the state of Kansas one would natur-
ally have concluded the jam on the streets
would be unprecedented. Bat the business
thoroughfare of Wichita on Thursday did
not compare for rush and jam with that of
yesterday. 1t is perfectly safe to say that
aside from the streets of Leavenworth at the
time when the war was at its height, no such
life was ever witnessed on the streets of any
city in Kansas as was afforded by the streets
of this city yesterday. Douglas avenue for
full mile or more and Main street for a full
half mile, and Market and First streets for
several blocks each, were rush of vehicles,
and the sidewalks upon either side and for
the distances named but counter marching
professions of traders, shoppers, etc. No
man or woman could have looked upon Wich-
ita yesterday, and failed in spite of the mud
and overianging weather to have been proud
of the fact that they lived in Wichita.
