THE PRODUCERS COMPLAINT.

the Operators.

Naval Stores Too Low in Price to Paw
the Operators.
The following communication has been
received from large firm of naval stores
operators in this state, and shows the
general feeling among the producers
throughout the turpentine section.
1--WE have read an article in the SAvAN-
NAH MORNING NEWS some days ago stat
ing that there was movement on foot to
erect tanks in Savannah and hold spirits
of turpentine in Savannah. and the
factors to become exporters, thereby doing
away with the middle man, and also be
able to name prices, and not be forced to
accept the prices of the middle men.
what has been done in regard to this
matters We think the move is good
one.
1.-The turpentine producers must
have relief, and at once, or
the industry will, in few years be a
thing of the past.
Operators. likewise factors will be
broke and discouraged, and many will
be forced to seek something else for a
living.
I'VE, the operators, a class of men who
are hard worked, likewise shut off in the
backwoods, and almost cut of from civil
lzation, expect the factors to devise, or
help US devise, some plan for our imme-
date relief As prices continue to go
lower, we, the producers, search into the
workings Of our business and stop all
cracks and leaks, and see no place or
chance for US to use less or make the
product cheaper, Factors know that
rosin and spirits made at the present
prices means starvation for the pro-
ducers.

WHAT'S WRONG UP RIvERp
Dead Bodies Keep Coming Down AM
Lodging at Brier Greek.


Sylvania, Ga, April 1.-THE body of
an unknown white man was found few
days ago lodged against some bushes in
the Savannah river near the mouth of
Brier creek, in this county. The discov-
cry was made by Peyton Vickery, who
notified the coroner. The latter went
down yesterday and held an inquest,
after which the body was buried in the
swamp. 1t had been in the water over a
week and most of the flesh was gone
There was nothing on it by which he
could be identified, neither was there any
marks of violence visible. He was
well dressed, but no papers of
any kind nor anything else
was found in his pockets. The body had
evidently fioated down the river but
from how far up is not known.
About two weeks ago Mr.. ViCkery also
discovered the dead body of a negro
lodged against a snag in the river near
the mouth of Brier creek, and several
weeks prior to that time he saw another
body, whether white or black he could
not tell, floating in the water. There
seems to be something wrong somewhere
up the river

ARGUMENTS ON AT TAvAREs.
Two of the Main Witnesses for the
State Couldn't Be Found.


State Couldn't Be Found.
jacksonville, Fla, April IA special
to the Times-Union from TaVares, Fla,
says: THE arguments in the Packwood
murder case were begun to-day. There
is no time-Iimit on the speeches, and it
will probably be two or three days before
the jury retires to reach a verdict The
state rested its case yesterday, and
when court convened this morning the
defense announced that it would intro
duce no witness. While the lawyers for
the state will, of course, plead for con-
viction, no one believes that a case has
been made out against the defendant.
And yet nearly every one is NOR
ally certain that the murders were
committed by Jenkins, McRae and
Clinton. The trouble with the
states case is that the evidence has all
been circums tantial, and not very strong
at that. 1t is rumored that John B.
Verona and Mrs. Poppleton, whom the
state depended on to clinch the case
against the accused men, have been paid
to leave Florida. AT any rate these two
witnesses could not be found and the
lawyers for the prosecution say their evil
dence was most important

SUED FOR A WINE BILL.

A High Roller of Atlanta Sued by a
Woman Now in Washington.
Atlanta, Ca, April IA suit that is
likely to result in a series Of sensational
episodes was filed here to-day. On the
record it stands, Cora Graham VS.. Nc
Allan B. Marsh. The purpose Of the &C
ton is to recover a s245 wine bill alleged
to be due the plaintiff. The debt was con-
tracted in Jacksonville last November,
although the residence of the plaintiff is
now Washington, d. G. She appears to
be of a rowing disposition. Mr..
Marsh is the son Of e. w. Marsh
one of the wealthiest merchants of the
city He is high-roller of the first
water. Other interesting evidences of
his career are expected to be disclosed
Within the past two years, it is said
young Marsh has allowed 800 1000 to slip
through his fingers doing the society act,
and in other ways. During the Redwine
defalcation trial he gained good deal of
unpleasant notoriety on account of his
intimate relations with the fallen cashier
and Tom Cobb jackson, whose suicide
was caused by the case.

AN OLD MAN IN HARD LUCK.
A Neighbor From Whom He Wanted
Money for Whisky Indicts Him.

Atlanta, Ca, April 17.-William Mer-
rift, white man 60 years of age, was
brought to Atlanta to-day and offered to
the county authorities to work out SEN
tence upon thechain-gang imposed in Polk
county. Polk is dry county. Some time
ago Merritt loaned a neighbor some
whisky When he asked for return of
the corn juice the neighbor said he didn't
have it. A quarrel ensued and Merritt
demanded the money, whereupon the I'M
grateful neighbor had him indicted for
offering to sell liquor Merritt owns
a farm worth $4,000 but obstinately
refused to pay fine He was rejected
by the Fulton county authorities as being
too feeble to work on the changing. At
ter being brought here Merritt was so in
censed that he telegraphed his son in
Polk county TO burn down his house and
horne and utterly destroy all his posses
sions in Polk county as far as possible II
his son refused to obey he says he will
apply the torch as soon as he IS at liberty.

1t will be seen that at the present price

A difference of from 20 cents to 50 cents

tween n, w q and w w rOsin. To-day
the difference between the grades is only
