FLoRIDA's PINEAPPLE CROP
More Than Double That of Last Year
A Big Industry.

More Than Double That of Last Year.
A Big Industry.
The pineapple industry is rapidly devel-
oping in Florida. A few years ago 1t was
comparatively unknown. This year the
crop OF the Indian river section, which Is
the heart of the pineapple section, is double
that of last year, and some estimates put il
treble last years. The most conser vative
estimates, according to a gentleman in
Savannah from Titusville yesterday, put
the crop at $4,000 to 10000 crates, while
some estimates 60 as high as 81, 900 crates.
The shipping season began about two
weeks ago. and will last about two weeks
longer. The season is a short one. lasting
only a month. The principal producing
section is about 100 miles below Titusville,
at Eden, on the Indian river.
The crop this year is very fine one. The
fruit is in excellent condition, and growers
are realizing good prices. The chief
markets to which the fruit Is shipped are
the northern markets, although Chicago,
Cincinnati and the western cities are becom-
ing large consumers.
The pineapple industry is even yet COM
paratively little known. Capt Richards of
Eden Is the pioneer Of the industry in the
Indian river section and he is by far the
largest grower. His plantation is an ex-
tensive one and he has realized large profit
from the fruit. Titusville is the point
through which the fruit is shipped and the
Indian river steamers do large
business at this season handling the
crop. A few other sections of Florida
grow the fruit but none 80 extensively
as the Indian river section. A few pine
apples are grown in the vicinity of Orlando,
but they are grown under sheds, while on
the Indian river both the soil and climate
are favorable to the crop, and i5 grows
luxuriantly In the open air. The industry
promises to become one of the most i'm
portant in Florida. and year or two from
now the crop will have been quadrupled.
The fruit is easily grown. A slip
planted one year becomes a bear
ing plant the second year.
The fruit from the Orlando section is
shipped principally to England. 1t is a
particularly fine variety and finds a ready
market abroad. A considerable crop is
also grown in the extreme southern part of
the state on the keys and is shipped to Key
West and from there via steamer to New
York.

ExoRBITANr HACK CHARGES.
The Need for an Ordinance Regulating
Hack Fares.

The Need for an Ordinance Regulating
Hack Fares.
The exorbitAncy of the hackmen Of Sa-
vannah is q subject of frequent complaint
with visitors aud one that Is altogether
justifiable. The attention of visitors is
frequently called to the most fragrant con-
duct on the part OF the city jehus who
seem TO consider 1t their prerogative to fleece
visitors to the utmost possible extent, and
where impotence and effrontery does not
succeed, to follow it up with intimidation.
a well-known gentleman yesterday called
the attention OF a MORNING NEWS reporter
TO q case which had, by reason Of the CIR
cumstances, been brought close by TO his
attention. A gentleman from q near By
city was in town one day this week. He
wanted to visit the armory OF the First
regiment, and after concluding his business
took hack downtown, and, in company
with member OF the regiment, the gentle
man who related the story went out to the
armory. first, however, ordering the driver TO
take them to business house on Bay street
where few moments stop was made. They
were then driven to the armory where a short
stop was made, when they again took the
hack and drove to residence near the park
where the visitor was to take supper. On
inQuiring of the driver his charge the gentle-
man was told 1.-TWO dollars aud a hail." He
thought this a little high and told the driver
so. Toe haokman, however. assisted on his
charge. The hack was a one-horse affair OF
no great professions, and had been
in use less than an hour in which
time it had covered a distance of
only about two miles. The Savanuahian ads
vlsed his friend against paying the exorbi-
tant charge and told him to leave the mat
ter with him. However. the visitor to save
ali trouble paid the charge and dismissed
the hack.
The little incident will not prove pleas
ant memory Of his visit to Savannah, how
ever.
The attention of the MORNING NEWS has
been called to several such incidents lately.
a negro driver was seen to curse and
abuse party of visitors not long ago who
declined to pay him his charge
for taking them to Thunderbolt
because he demanded dollar more than
they had agreed to give him. He continued
his abuse until a policeman approached
when he became very polite.
There should be some ordinance regu-
lating hack fares, said the gentleman who
related the first incident IA certain spe-
passengers from any point in the city to
any other point direct within the city linn
its. Then there should be specific charge per
hour fixed and any hickman attempting to
collect more than these fixed charges should
be reported TO the mayor and fined Macon
has such an ordinance, and the price for
carrying passenger from any point within
the city direct to any other point within
the city is 25 cents. You cannot ride two
blocks in Savannah in a hack for less than
so cents

Man.
Aleck Tillman, a colored foreman at the
lower cotton press. died of heart disease
while washing himself in the engine room
some time night before last. His body was
discovered yesterday morning at l o'clock

1t had been Tillmau's habit for a number
OF years TO battle himself every night in the
engine room after working hours Thurs
day night he went into the engine room as
usual and that was the last time he was
seen alive. His wife watched for him to
come home until nearly o'clock and then
becoming uneasy, she went to the press and
asked the Waterman to see IL her husband
was around the place. Together they made a
tour and when they reached the engine room
Tillman was found. He was stripped to the
waist and lying face downward on the
floor. One foot was In the bucket. Evidently
he had been dead several hours as the body
was cold.
Coroner Dixon was notified after day
light and gave per mission to Tillman's wife
to remove his body to her home on East
Boundary street near Wheaton. Later an
inquest was held and verdict of death

A COLORED PRIEST.
Rev. Richard Bright Ordained by
Bishop Nelson.

Rev. Richard Bright, a young colored
man, was ordained to the priesthood Of the
Episcopal church yesterday by Bishop
Nelson. The ceremony took place at st.
Stephens church, at Harris and Habersham
streets to which Rev. Bright has been
called as rector.
The services, which were of a highly inn
pressive character, lasted over two hours
and were participated in by Rev. Charles
H. Strong OF St. Johns church, Rev. Robb
White of Christ church. Rev. Hartley
(colored) Of st. Augustine's mission, Rev.
M. Pollard colored) Of st. Marks church
OF Charleston. and Rev. George r. Miller
(colored) of Calvary church Of Charleston.
st. Stephens was damned with people,
many white Episcopalians attending the
services.
Rev. George F. Miller of Charleston, who
was a classmate OF Rev. Bright, presented
him for ordination, and Rev. Charles II.
Strong preached the ordination sermon.
His charge to the newly-ordaIned clergy
man was eloquent and powerful.
Rev. Bright is only 25 years of age. He
is tall, Of spare build. with a strong intel
lectual face and dignifed clerical carriage.
he ia highly educated, a bright conversa-
tional1st with command OF language
which is destined to make him noted
as preacher. He was born In the Danish
vest Anules, ana reared In the EplScopallan
faith. During boyhood he came to the
United States and received his college train
ing at St Augustine's Collegiate Institute
at Raleigh. N. G. After graduating there
be took his theological course at the Theo-
logical Seminary OF New York.
Last year Bishop Potter of New York
administered deacon's orders to the young
man. At the same time he passed the ex-
animation for the orders of priesthood, but,
under the canonioal law, which makes it
rule that no one shall be raised to the
dignity Of a priest until he has reached the
age of %, Rev. Bright had to wait year.
The young minister is enthusiastic over
the work Of the Episcopal church and pre-
diets great strides for il In Georgia under
the administration OF Bishop Nelson, who,
he says, intends to push missionary work
among the colored people Rev. Bright
said that in the country from which he
came the Episcopalian faith is the strongest
among the colored race, and with the proper
encouragement in America he sees no reason
why 1t should not hold the same position
here.
The church generally throughout the
country is awakening to the necessity of
missionary work among the colored race,
and Rev. Bright thinks the day is not far
distant when the strength viii be felt

ARRESTS NOT INCREASING.
The Record OF the "Hurry-Up" Wagon
Eehind the Hand System.

The Record OF the "Hurry-Up" Wagon
Eehind the Hand System.
A generally mistaken idea has been pre-
vailing among the citizens that since the
introduction Of the Game we'll police tele-
graph system the number Of arrests have
increased. The accepted theory has been
that the novelty of free ride in the "hur-
ry-up" wagon has caused evil doors to COM
NIT breaches of the city ordinances in order
to experience the new sensation.
The "hurry-uph wagon began responding
to calls on the night OF June l and up to
yesterday afternoon at 5 O'Clock had hauled
81 prisoners to the police barracks. Dur
ing the same period last year the
police brought In 70 offenders, which
show that instead OF arrests increasing in
consequence of the new system they show a
falling of Of thirteen as compared with last
year.
Chief Green says that he supposes the
reason people get the idea that the wagon
was increasing the arrests over the old
hand system is that the innovation Of a
wagon running through the streets day and
night in response to calls attracts peoples
attention, when no particular notice was
taken of q policeman escorting q prisoner
on foot TO the barracks.
The escape OF prisoner few nights ago
from the wagon has caused an addition to
be made to the paraphernalia of the turn
out in the shape Of foot shackles on each
side, capable of holding eight men.

Chairman Charlton Unable to FIJI

Chairman Charlton Of the democratic

has no authority to fill the vacancy caused
by Mr.. S. Krouskoff's resignation from the
committee from the Third district, but that
the selection OF some other representative
from the Third district will deYolve upon
the committee.
What action could be taken in case the
Sixth and Seventh districts fail to report
any election as seems probable now, Mr..
Charlton said he was at loss to say.
The committee itself will hardly have au-
thority TO elect representatives for these
districts, and unless another election is
ordered it does not appear that anything
can re done, he said, except to allow the
places to remain vacant. No provision was
made in the resolution adopted at the mass
meeting Of the party for such contingencies,
