NO FROST THIS FALL YET.
It win Take Pretty Cold weather I,

It Win Take Pretty Cold Weather to
Damage the Fall Truck Crops.
The cold snap so far as reports from
the truck farms and lowlands go, has not
yet brought any frost. The truckers have
considerable stuff in the ground at this
time of the year, and they were all inter
ested yesterday in knowing how it Jared
after the weather Of the night before
Mr.. Nj. l.. Exley was on his plantation
early in the day. and he said he could
discover no signs of any frost in any sec
ton there and it was reported to him by
his oVerseer that the thermometer did not
so lower than 45 degrees. They say no
frost will form as long as the thermone-
ter remains above AZ degrees, and even
then it would not be sufficient to do any
material damage. 1t takes about IS de-
grees to bring frost that will damage the
crops in the ground. and at this season Of
the year they stand it far better than they
DO in the spring. There is in the ground
now a considerable quantity of snap
beans, some Irish potatoes cabbage tur-
nips. lettuce, cane, etc, but the heavy
rains which prevailed during the summer
damage that they win amount
to much less in this section this
year than they have in the previous
years 1t takes a freeze to kill Irish po-
tatoes in the fall, and a pretty severe
frost to do much damage to the other
crops.
The lowest that mercury went yesterday
was a degrees, and the highest was C4
degrees. The mean was Sc degrees, or y
degrees below the average. The average
lowest temperature for the thirteen sta
tons in the Savannah district was Al de-
grees. The lowest temperature reached
at any point was 40 degrees at Albany,
cambridge, Cordele and Fort Gaines. The
average highest temperature for the thr-
teen stations of the district was 70 de-
grees
There was no frost up to late last night
The weather was clear and a good many
people took the precaution to cover up the
choice flowers in their gardens, for fear
the temperature might go low enough to
injure them. The indications sent out at
midnight for this vicinity are for fair
weather to-day followed by coudiness this
afternoon. warmer tonight with north
east to east winds.

the sights of the town last Friday. The
two visited the house of the Morrison
woman on Wayne street. While they were
there the woman claimed to have had 500

THEY WILL NOT SUBSCRIBE.

Northern Fertilizer Men Say They Get
Cheaper Rates Through Other Ports.
The fertilizer men and others are very
much exercised over the fact that the New
York, Baltimore and Philadelphia fertil-
izer manufacturers have refused to con-
tribute to the freight bureau which is to
be established here. the requests having
been made on account of the fact that
they have heretofore been shipping large
quantities Of fertilizers through this port
Several large fertilizer firms were writ
ten to about the matter, all OF them hav-
ing shipped their product through Savau-
nah to interior ports Replies were re-
ceived from two or three of them TO the
effect that they did not care TO
subscribe TO the freight bureau, and stat
ing that although they had shipped con-
siderable stuff through Savannah, they
would not do so any more at present as
they were able to get lower rates in other
directions.
It is inferred that they have been able
to get lower rates for their stuff through
Charleston, and expect to ship that way.
The amount Of stuff shipped from these
places TO interior points through Savan-
nah has been from 10000 to 5000 tons of
fertilizers annually. This is a consider
able amount and adds quite a little bit 10
the business of the port. Those interested
in the trade win want the freight bureau
10 take hold OF this matter and see where
the trouble lies
The fertilizer men expect to subscribe
$1,000 to the freight bureau, on the basis
of three years, which means all together
5000. The lumbcrmen have subscribed or
VIII subscribe a similar amount, and other
interests are piling up the figures. Tho
subcommittee meet tonight at the res
idence Of Capt. D. G.. Purse 10 report to
the general committee on the progress
of their work, and it is contemplated that
they VIII have enough subscriptions to re-
port to go ahead with the work. The next
thing is to outline the manner of organiza-
ton, and it is expected to make q report
to meeting of the business men Of the
city to be held at the city exchange about
Thursday.
Another matter that those interested
in the freight bureau are turning their
attention to, is the question of tourist
rates. Capt. Purse says it is his belief
that il this matter is taken up and agi-
tated properly, it viii cause the southern
passenger men to hold another meeting
this season, and consider at least the adj
Visibility Of putting Savannah on the
tourist list. He says that Jacksonville
and other places to which tourist rates
are given, are commercial points as well
as Savannah, and there is no reason on
that account why Savannah should not
be given the same advantage

POLICE oFF1oERs at ODDS.

Report that Two Policemen Waylaid
Two City Detectives Last Night.
It was reported last night that early In
the evening two policemen who had a
night off laid in wait for Detectives Bos-
sell and Kavanaugh near some poplar
trees in the neighborhood of the barracks,
and brought up a conversation with them
which led to a difficulty the outcome of
which was that Policeman McHugh was
arrested for assaulting and beating De-
tective Kavanaugh, and he then had De
tective Bossen put on the docket on a
charge OF drawing pistol on an officer.
The story was to the effect that the two
detectives had just left the police bar
racks when they were met by the police
men, and some talk began about some
statements that had been made about the
latter derogatory TO the detectives When
about the gate to the old cemetery some
thing was said about a statement made
by Policeman McHugh to the effect that
he had always voted for Irishmen, but
there were certain ones among them he
would not vote for again.
The policeman, it is said charged De-
tectiVe Kavanaugh with reporting that
ne mad made this statement Kavanaugh
said that he had made the statement, the
lie was passed, and, according to the re-
port, the policeman struck the detective
defective Bosseu then took a hand and
arrested Policeman McHugh on a charge
of assaulting and striking the detective.
He was taken to the barracks, where the
charge was made and he also preferred
charges Of drawing a loaded pistol on an
officer against Detective Bossel.
When asked about the matter last night
Detective Bossel would not discuss it,
but denied that ne drew any pistol The
matter is expected to come up in police
court this U0OrpiDo 11n1aGG m
takes it in hand and holds a private in
yestigatiOn.
The officer on duty at the barracks was
asked about the report last night, but he
stated he had heard nothing of it, and
knew nothing about the arrests.

DID THE TALLAHAssEE cATCHIT
Ocean Steamship Captains Discuss
Report in a Boston Paper.

Some of the captains and officers on sew
eral Of the Ocean Steamship Company's
ships were having a good laugh last night
at the De Soto, at the expense of Capt
Askins of the Tallahassee or of a Boston
newspaper reporter, but just which one
they were not quite able to decide.
The fun grew out of d report of a recent
trip to Boston by the Tallahassee, which
caught a portion of the storm of Sept. 26,
a day or two after it was felt here The
report of the trip which brought about
the comment, appeared in the Boston
Journal. Capt. Askins was reported as
saying he had passed through typhoons,
cyclones, and the monsoons of the China
seas, but he had never experienced any
thing so bad as the storm which he en-
countered the day or two before his ar
rival in Boston.
The Chattahoochee. the Augusta and
the Birmingham were all out on the sen
at the time, and their captains report that
they never had any extraordinarily Sc
we're gales. They are at a loss
to account for the storm which
beat the typhoons and the mon
soons of the China seas, and they
did not know whether Capt. Askins really
caught a heavy gale or whether the Sc
verify of the blow was exaggerated by the
Boston reporter.

Salt creek and the band wagon has
been filled, to overlooking, with
successful candidates, let us lay
aside partisan feeling and partisan
prejudice. Let us also forget the
hard things which were said on both
sides, and come to a realizing sense
of the fact that we are all citizens
of San Juan county, and each and
everyone of us equally interested
in the clearing up of our forests
and the creating of orchards and
fields, happy homes and cheerful
fresides.
The very situation Of our island
is such as lends sort of charm and
novelty to our location such as few
can boast of. Lying, as do the
islands ofthe Archipelago De Haro,
in the very northwestern part of
the U. S., whose rugged shores are
kissed by the waters of the mighty
Pacific, through the straits of San
Juan De Fuca, on the west; the
Gulf of Georgia on the north; and
the placid waters of Puget sound

location comprising much of the
rugged and much of the sublime.

Moffatt Bros, of Spokane hav

Moffatt Bros, Of Spokane have
been awarded the contract for the
construction of the foundation of
the new capitol at SAT 400. This
is nearly $4,000 more than the
original bid of Lillis & Tucker
and is yet less than Architect Flagg
or the members of the commission
estimated the work would cost.
The bid of Moffatt Bros. is not the
lowest submitted, but the commits
sion exercised discretionary power
in accepting what they considered
the best and most responsible bid.
Tenino stone from the Van Tine
quarry will be used, and in conform
ing with the terms Of the contract,
the bidders will furnish bonds for
the protection of laborers. There
will now be no delay and work will
be commenced next week.
