ken in the Old Fort
Jimmy Dunn and Lucretia Walton, two
combative young colored people, fought a
few rounds on the commons early yesterday
afternoon, in which Luoretia was severely
kicked and Jimmy was gashed in the face
with rock. Officer Murken took the pair
to the barracks. After the cases against
them had been booked and the officer was
conducting his prisoners to the station

liberty, and, dashing out of the sally port,

to say that Dunn's sentence will not be
lessened any by the race he gave the police

AN AMIoABLR ADJUSTMENT.
No More Rebates on Compressed Cot

No More Rebates on Compressed Cot
ton After Get. 10.
The compress and rebate war which has
been going on since the opening of the cot
ton season between the Central railroad on
the one side and the Savannah Cotton Press
Association and the Savannah, Florida and
Western Railway Company on the other,
will end the coming month, as they have
settled their differences and propose to quit
their suicidal policy which was inaugurated
last August.
Notices were posted in the cotton ex-
change yesterday, signed by General Man
ager Cecil Gabbett and Terminal Superin-
tendent Morgan Of the Central and by the
officers of the Cotton Press Association, in
which 1t is stated that the rates for COM
pressing for direct ports foreign will be SIS
cents per bale, the same rate for cotton by
coastwise vessels for foreign ports, and 50
cents per bale for northern and eastern
points. For recompressing 40 cents per bale
will be charged.
The new schedule takes effect on Oct. TO-
after which date no rebates will be allowed
TO shippers. This arrangement will have
some effect 10 lessening the local receipts
somewhat, but it will, however, have BEN
ef1cial effect on the f o. b. cotton, and will
tend TO increase the latter very much.

Savanpah's Receipts Yesterday Ia, All
Bales of the Fleecy Staple.
The total receipts of cotton at the ports
yesterday were very large, reaching 60, 116
bales, of which Savannahs receipts were
14,421 bales, pretty nearly one-fourth. and
this, with one or two exceptions, is the
largest days receipts ever received at this
port. certainly the largest this season, and
in fact the. largest of any South Atlantic
port in any season.

the above receipts. Savannah has yet to

tenn that is now being put in

LARGE ORCHARDS.-The month
of December which is just closing
has been busy one among fruit
growers and those starting in that
business. Some large orchards have
been set to trees. Orchards ranging
from one thousand to several thous-
and trees are repor ted from many To-
calities, the work o. planting trees
has as yet but fairly begun. Num-
erous orchards are now only being
prepared for the trees put will be set
out before spring. Marion, Polk and
the northern part of Iamhill coun-
ties seem to be the main districts
which are receiving the attention OF
large fruit growers. These counties
are in the heart of the great William
este valley and the most prolific fruit
country in the world, especially for
prunes, plums, cherries and apples,
Fruit in this part of the valley will
soon be of great revenue to owners OF
fruit lands. 1t is only few years
since Oregon has had facilities for
shipping fruits to the Eastern mar
ket. The past season probably more
green fruit was shippedEast from the
Willamette valley than in all time
previous. Oregon fruit is attracting
world wide reputation.

THOUGHT THERE WAS A FIRE
A few persons who were near the
Postofiice block yesterday afternoon
thought they had discovered a fire
in that building. Smoke was seen
emerging from the roof sear one of
the fiues. Two persons rushed up
with buckets of water, but were un-
able to find the location of the fire
for some time. After a thorough ex-
animation it was found to be only
the SCOT in the iue burning and had
become ohoked. The alarm was
about to be turned in when the re-
port was given that all was safe.

EARLY CLoSING.-The JOURNAL
is requested to again call attention
to the advisibility of closing stores
during the winter evenings, except
Saturday, at seven O'Clock, that the
statesmen and ladies may have an
opportunity of enjoying the long
evenings at home or in social anus
ment. Experience has proven that
the trade suffers nothing from such
movement when it is universal
throughout the city, while on the
other hand there is a great saving
to the proprietors in the matter of
lights and in other respects. This
is no attempt on the part of em-
ployes TO dictate to the storekeepcrs,
but there is natural interest which
makes the rights of both Identical,
and where the employe can be given
added means Of enjoyment without
injury to the employer; it encourages
the former and instills a deeper de-
sire for faithful and efficient service.
If the matter is taken hold of there
will probably be no opposition to an
agreement to early closing.
