GEORGIA's COTTON CROP.
Director Redding Says 1t VIII Only
BE Half an Average.

Atlanta Ga, Sept. 24.-Hon. r. J. Red
ding, director of the state experiment
station at Griffin, was in conference with
Commissioner of Agriculture Nesbitt to-
day. Mr.. Redding says that 95 per cent.
of the cotton crop in his county has been
gathered, and a short time ago he esti-
mated from the appearance of the cotton
on the state farm, that it would make
two bales to the acre, which is just half
a bale better than it made last year. but
on account of the drought the land would
not yield more than a bale to the acre.
This is about what is being done in other
parts of the country. The land is yield
ing only half as much cotton as ii ought
to yield The crop throughout the state
is estimated by Mr. Redding to be about
half what it ought to be. Georgia is not
alone in this matter, however, for Mr.
Redding says he has received a letter
from Texas, in which it is stated that
the late cotton planted in April has not
come up, the early crop has matured and
brought forth very small crop, and that
cattle have been turned into the fields.
Commissioner Nesbitt has a letter from
Commissioner Vincent Heller of Arkan-
sas, in which he says that the crop in
that state will not be half of an ordinary
crop.

EAsFERLIN IN A BAD BOx.
The Steinmeyer Girl Claims to Have
Given Him a Child.

The Steinmeyer Girl Claims to Have
Given Him a Child.
Charleston, S. c., Sept 24.-The finding
of the body of a white child in an arm of
the Cooper river here Tuesday, still re-
mains the sensation of the hour. A stone
was about the neck of the body, and it
looks as if a case of murder will be
brought to light. Electrician w. H.
Easterlin of the metropolitan police force
is still held, pending the coroners in
vestigation, and a second inquest, which
will be held tomorrow. Easterlin has
admitted that he was living a double
life. He has a wife and children in the
city, and he had been living with a young
woman named Steinmeyer, on Concord
street, near the pond where the dead body
was found.
Easterlin denies that he was the father
of the Steinmeyer girls child, or that he
was present when 1t was born. 1t is now
claimed ON excellent authority that the
girl has confessed to giving birth to a
child, and that she asserts that it was
given to Easterlin in good health, he
promising to take care. of it. If this is
so the case against him lis very black.
The doctors, who have completed their
examination of the body found in the
mill pond, say that that child came to its
death by asphyxia. 1t is now thought a
strong case viii be made before the cor
oner's jury tomorrow

RYDER CASE ARGUMENTS.
Four Speeches Finished and the
Fifth in Progress.

IN
Talbotton, Ga, Sept. 24-Four speeches
have been made in the Ryder case, and
the fifth one is in progress. At the ad-
journment of court Mr.. Hatcher and
John McGehee have spoken for the state
and A A. Carson and Col. ]. J. Bull for
the defense. The speeches of each of the
gentlemen did them credit. Nothing has
developed that can leave heart burnings
or bitterness. The gentlemanly bearing of
all the counsel in this case is matter of
general remark. Mr.. Hatcher opened the
argument, and without effort of oratory,
laid down the basis Of all the arguments
that were to follow. He made out the
case, fastening the crime upon the de
PENDANT. and gave authorities to sustain
his position.
A A Carson was the first to speak for
the defense and such was his argument
and eloquence that he held the attention
of the audience for four hours.
John H. MeGehee is an eloquent and
convincing speaker before a jury, and is
one of the rising young men of the state.
For two and half hours by the power
of forceful eloquence, he held the au-
dence enchanted.
Col J. J. Bull made an able and ef-
fective argument for the defense, and
condensed a great deal of law and argu-
ment under one head.
This trial, so far. has consumed two
days court In May, and will consume this
entire session of court. The expense. so
far, to the county is about 50, 800, and no
one can estimate the loss from neglect
of business. one of the jurors is sick
to-day and no one knows what surprise
tomorrow may hold in store.

SEIZURE OF THE DAUNTLESS
BRUNswICK MADE LIVELY BY THE
CASE.

Residents of the city Confident That
There Are No Expeditions on the
Point of Leaving That City For
Cubn-Spies on Hand For Both the
Cuban Junta and the Spanish
Government.
Brunswick, Ga, Sept. A.-Special Agent
Anderson of the treasury department ar
rived here to-day to assist the custom
house officials in the work connected with
the Dauntless and other alleged expedi-
lions that have occurred and are sup
posed to be in contemplation. Just what
grounds the rumors regarding these ex-
petitions have Is unknown to the public.
The concensus Of opinion among those
who are in position to know seems to be
that there are no expeditions waiting
here now for the Dauntless or any other
boat in Brunswick waters. The custom
house officials are kept lively with tele-
grams from Washington, but investiga-
ton has failed to disclose any matter of
a public nature.
The Spanish government is very active
here, and has two spies continually on the
lookout. They are supposed to be Pinker-
ton men. There may be others, but these
two are known, and their every move
ment is watched by spies in the Cuban
service. Judge Crovatt Of Crovatt &
Whitfield, attorneys for Spain, left to-
night for Jacksonville on the Three
Friends case.
AS far as Brunswick is concerned just
now the Spanish spies may have some
information that causes them to watch
this port. 1t is certain that the govern
ment officials are not uneasy, so far about
the Dauntless, as she is in the hands
of the United States marshal, and is now
lying at her dock, with no fire under her
boilers or indications which point in any
way to an early departure.
The arrival of late trains tonight
brought a boom In Cuban circles. Col
Bisbee, the owner of the Dauntless, and
his attorney, John c. Hartridge of Sa-
vannah. arrived, and are supposed to be
here for the purpose of arranging bond
for the tug tomorrow. Near
them at the hotel were Com
missioner Lehman, Special Treasury
Agent Anderson, the local custom in
spector, and John f. duBignon, whose
name appears on the Dauntless documents
as managing owner Spanish Consul De-
lago was also nearby. A. H. Lane has
been appointed master in the case and
will assess the bond tomorrow. Ten
thousand dollars is the probable amount.
The scene at the hotel tonight has start
ed all sorts of rumors and every one CON
nected with the Dauntless case is on the
qui vive.
