PEACHES AT NEW YORK.
Review of the Past Season at the
Greatest Market.

A Review of the Past Season at the
Greatest Market.
In a review of the peach crop, as far
as the New York market was concerned,
during the season just ended, the New
York Commercial says that the receipts
al that market have been unusually large,
being over 100000 packages.
The season opened the last part of May
with the first shipments of the fruit from
Florida arriving in small, scattering lots,
which sold for 50 and $3.50 per carrier for
ordinary varieties, an occas ional LOT of the
japanese variety bringing 81 and $3.50. 1t
was not until the first week in June that
the fruit from Georgia, South Carolina
and North Carolina began to arrive in
small lots, bringing $3.50 and 81.
with the exception of few
Bidwell peaches, which commanded
as high as 81 per carrier. About
the latter part of June the Hale peaches
from Georgia began arriving in large
quantities. Prices dropped considerably,
and the amount of fruit received from
Georgia alone has done more to keep the
price low than that from any other state.
Peaches were a drug on the market, So
600 packages arriving in a single day, and
July % nearly 10000 packages of the fruit
arrived from all points.
Prices broke, and il was common to buy
fair lots from 60 cents to Is cents a crate
of six baskets. Many care did not bring
transportation expenses and several were
, condemned by the Board of Health.

SECURED THEIR DISCHARGE.
Four of the Guards to Return From
Huntsville.


News was received yesterday that hon
orable discharges had been granted by
the Secretary of War to Sergts. william
B. Stephens, E. F. Lowell and Robert c.
Fleming and Private Simkins of Company
B, of the Second Georgia Regiment The
four men are now with the regiment at
Huntsville. but may be expected home to-
morrow
The discharges were secured, 1t Is un-
derstood, through the good influences of
Senator Clay. The four soldiers enlisted
with the Guards at the breaking out of
hostiities and have good records They,
like many others, saw no reason why they
should continue in the service now that
the war is over, and accordingly applied
for discharges.
Senator Clay Is understood 10 favor all
lowing all of the privates to give free ex-
preston as to whether or not they desire
to continue in the service. No discredit
rejecting on any one who sees fit to with
draw from the army rather than waste
eighteen months at guard duty in some
town of Cuba or Porto Rico.

CAR LINES AND FARES.
Is 1t Two Fares on BrOughton
street Around on st. JuIinn.

Street Around on st. Julian.
The question of fares on the Habersham.
Broughton and ST. Julian street car line
is causing a good deal of trouble The
company says that the line is not a belt
and charges two fares for the round trip
from Bolton street, or from the market
1T has been a practice for passengers
boarding a down car anywhere on Brough-
ton street and going around by the mar
ket out Habersham street to pay one fare.
During the heavy rains of the last day
or two the travel on that line has been
unusually heavy. A passenger boarded
the Broughton street car at Abercorn
street, intending to ride around by the
market and st. Julian street and out Hab-
ersham. He paid one fare on
3roughton street. When the car had
passed the market and started out St
Julian street the conductor demanded an
other fare with the remark that This
amt no belt line"
Patrons Of the line would like to know
what the rules are as to fares, and if the
company intends to exact a fare for rid
ing three or four blocks down Broughton
street and another as soon as the car
passes the market, from passengers who
go out to the southern section of the
city. On many cars during the last three
or four days about the only convenience
offered was a place to stand. The seats
were in the same condition as the streets
water soaked.

PROTECT THE DUMB BEASTS.
Humane Society NBny BE Organized
This WeeIx.

This week.
The move for the organizat ton of a So
ciety for the prevention of cruelty to an
imags which has been taking shape dur
ing the last few days, it is expected Will
result in a meeting being called this week.
Plans win then be discussed and an effort
made to put the organization into effect
at once. The plan of organization
win be determined later.
The need for some means to put a stop
to the cruel treatment of dumb beasts by
the punishment of their prosecutors is APP
parent to most people. II may be that the
Louise King Association, which was in ex-
istence a number If years ago, may be re-
viyed in honor OF that philanthropic lady,
who did much for the protection of dumb
beasts. An association in her name is now
in existence in Augusta, under the man
agement of Mr. Samuel r. Craig.
One of the needs in Savannah is more
drinking fountains for draft animals. There
are but two in the city, one on Bay street
at the foot of Whitaker,
and the other on Montgomery
street. At almost any time during the
day these fountains are surrounded by
horses and mules. Every day or two in
stances are seen of animals overworlled or
being worked when sick and bruised. Not
long ago a railroad and steamship bag
gage transfer wagon, loaded down with
trunks, was hauled to the Baltimore
wharf by a single horse. The driver was
late, his wagon was overloaded, the day
was hot and when the load reached the
wharf the horse was scarcely able to
stand from overwork having been goaded
, by the driver to reach the wharf in time
Numbers of these instances are seen al
most every day. The laws against cruel
treatment of animals exist, but the rec
ords of the police and state courts show
that they are seldom enforced.
