Insulted Man

Insulted Man
New York, Dec. 7-At the instance
of George W. Porteous of Chicago, De-
lancey Nicoll filed papers today in a
suit against John Brisbane Walker,
editor and publisher Of the Cosmopoli-
tan. charging him with libed and claim
ing $50. 900 damages for his client
Mr.. Porteous is the American manag-
er Of the Bertillion system of measure
ment for the detection of criminals. The
libel alleged was obtained from a series
of photographs of an alleged noted
criminal. published in connection with
an article on the methods of detecting
criminals, written by A. F. 3. Crofton.
Mr.. Porteous says that he had six pho
tographs Of himself taken six years
ago, when he took up the business. The
only set of them which passed out of
his possession was the one he gave his
friend, Major W. McC1aughrey, pres
ident Of the Pontiac reform school in
Illinois.
Crofton, he alleges was a convict there
and obtained the pictures for use in
his article. Mr.. Porteous says that his
consent to the publication of the pic
lures was not gained. He alleges that
he has been greatly troubled by the
affair and says he may at any time
be taken to police headquarters in
large city for the purpose of Identified
ton as a suspicious character.
He alleges that the pictures are Of
him and the statement that the like
ness Is of a noted criminal is sfficient
grounds for the libel. He does not
allege that any malice entered into
Mr. Walkers part in the affair. Mr..
Walker, through his manager, disclaim-
all malicious intent and says that the
photographs was obtained by his mag
azine from Major McClaughry for spec
ial use in the article.
Mr.. Porteous admitted that the man.
ayers of the Cosmopolitan had offered
TO make full retraction, but this, he
says, cannot satisfy him.

parents, were the only occupants of the
house. The son at once notified the
coroner and also reported the facts TO

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1895-04-23
The Fruit and vcgc,nhIc Con-.

II the season continues favorable the
fruit and vegetable crops Of Georgia and
Florida viii be enormous. We published a
letter yesterday from a Fort Valley peacb
grower who said he would have fully 1O0.
600 bushels Of peaches from his orchard
and that the peach crop in the vicinity Of
Fort Valley would be at least $50 600 bush
els Ana II must not be forgotten that all
the peach orchards of the state are not
in the immediate vicinity Of Fort Valley.
The peach orchards of South Georgia
promise a bounteous yield. It is not an ex-
asgeration to say that if the conditions re-
main unchanged there will be thousands
of car loads OF peaches moved by the Cen
trial railroad and the Savannah. Florida
and Western railway.
The peach crop promises to be unprece-
dented in abundance. The trees all through
South Georgia ana Northern Florida are
loaded with fruit. In some localities the
blight has afflicted the trees to some ex-
tent but it VIII hardly become general.
The outlook for melons is rather start
ling for those who hope for good prices. A
dispatch in the Morning News to-day
states that Florida will send to market
5000 car loads. And the Georgia crop Will
be almost, If not quite as large.
The vegetables are already moving from
Florida and the crop is greater than in
any previous year. The prospect for vege-
tables in this section is very promising
The railroads and steamships will soon
have all they can do to move the products
Of the orchards and fields Their carrying
capacity will be taxed to the utmost limit
until theend of the watermelon season.
Even now the fruit and vegetable
growers ought to be thinking about finding
new markets for their products. The coast
cities. Baltimore. Philadelphia, New York
and Boston cannot take all they have to
send them. The great inland cities must be
reached. If they are not the eastern mar
kets VIII he glutted and prices will drop
so low that fruit will have to be left on
the trees and vegetables in the ground.
There ought to be a regular system of dis
trbution so that no one market would be
overstocked. Such distribution cannot be
had without organization.
