The New Chief Justice.

The nomination Of Melville W.
Fuller, of Chicago, rs Chief Justice
of the United States, is regarded
with unbounded satisfaction by the
leading men Of both parties. Fuller
in every respect is fitted to fill that
high Office. He was born in Aug
usta, Maine, February II, 1888.
He graduated at Bowdoin in 1853,
Minister Phelps being his class
mate. After studying law at Ban
gor and attending lectures at Har-
ward, Fuller came west to Chicago.
His ability was speedily recognized
and for thirty years he has won
distinction among the foremost men
of the bar. He has been prominent
at several Democratic National
conventions, and in 1860 was ST.
lected to deliver the address Of well
come to Stephen A. Douglas. In
his practice in the Supreme Court
of the United States, Fuller has
frequently come in contact with
Edmunds, Thurman and other
great lawyers, but has never failed
to hold his own against the great
est of them. He is familiar with
the decisions Of that court, and es-
pecially on all constitutional ques-
tons. When Fuller was informed
of the nomination he was over
whelmed with surprise, and re-
quested that he be not pressed for
an extended interview, simply
stating that he would accept the
nomination.

Why Conkling Was Not q Mason.

Aid. Conkling was asked if Mr..
Conkling was not member of a
Masonic lodge, and, if SO, if his
lodge would not like to be present
and take part in the funeral SER
vices. "No," said Mr.. Conkling,
"the Senator was not a Mason nor
did he belong to any other secret
secret organization. When his
father, Alfred Conkling, was public
prosecutor in Montgomery county,
about sixty years ago, he was at
one time prosecuting a murderer
who in the midst of the summing
up against him made the Masonic
sign of distress. My grandfather
was so disguised that he resigned
from his lodge, and since that day
no Conkling has ever joined the
order.

GEoRe1A,s BIG MELON CROP.
The g., F. g. w. Expects to Handle
5000 Carloads.


The Georgia watermelon is a power in
the land. 1t Is in demand as far north as
Canada, and as far west as Duluth, st.
Paul and Salt Lake city. Instead of the
demand falling off it is increasing year by
year. The early melon catches the nimble
penny, and Florida first and southwestern
Georgia next furnishes the first melons OF
the season. Georgia, in the neighborhood
of Augusta comes third in order OF ship
ment, an winds up the season.
The Savannah, Florida and Western or
Plant system moves the Florida melon as it
moves the Florida tourist. The Savannah,
Florida and Western people have b en-
handling the crop of Flordt melons for the
past week and the season will end about
July l, and possibly little earlier There
is large increase in the melon acreage and
output of Florida this season.
The great bulk of southern melons, how
ever, come from southwest Georgia, be-
tween Valdosta and Boston. The season
begins about the 18th of June, and by the
18th Of July the heaviest shipments are
over, but there are more or less shipments
until the middle of August.
The Savannah retail market is largely
supplied from the melon fields of southwest
Georgia and the islands adjacent TO
Chatham county, Tho Central railroad
handles the Augusta melons and the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western the southwest
Georgia and south Georgia and Florida
crop.
An official of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway in an interview with
MORNING NEWS reporter yesterday, says
that the outlook for the melon crop OF
southwestern Georgia is that it will be much
larger than last year. He says that he has
heard from all the melon stations in the
melon district, except Albany, Meigs and
Ousley, and he gave the following as the
estimates reported by the station
agents: Naylor SO cars, Valdosta
20l, Thomasville 100, Ochlocknee 40, Pei
ham 200, Camilla ASS, Baconton 1856, Harda-
way $50, total 1850 cars. This he thought
was an overestimate, but as Albany, Meigs
aud Ousley are large shipping points he
thought it would be perfectly safe to set
down the crop this season at 5000 cars. an
increase of about $50 or ,015 cars over last
and !, $50 carloads of melons last year.
The melons are loaded in box cars.
layer of common forest pine straw being
first spread upon the floor of the Car. From
800 to 200 melons are loaded in a car, the
melons ranging in weight from twelve to
thirty pounds. The melons are well
handled in transit, with very small per-
centage of breakage or loss, except when
the season is we'll advanced and overripe
melons are shipped to a glutted market.
The bulk of the melon crop Is looked after
by corps of specially detailed men, who
leave Savannah about June Is and are
stationed at the principal shipping points in
the melon districts. Fully one-half, or
more. of the melons come to Savannah and
are transferred to the steamers of the Ocean
Steamship line, and the principal crop of
the Augusta melons is brought in on the
Central for ocean transfer.
