CROPS ARE IN NEED OF RAIN.
Small Progress is Reported From
Many Sections.

Small Progress is Reported From
Many Sections.
Atlanta, May 23.-The weekly crop bull
letin of the weather bureau, issued to-day.
gives the following epltome of crop condi-
lions in Georgia:
During the past week the weather has
been very dry, and as a result. crops in
many sections are making little or no
progress. In some sections good showers
fell on the 18th, doing much good to grow
ing crops and enabling farmers to set
sweet potato slips.
Oats seem to have suffered most; in
some sections the late sowing is almost a
tS>al failure. Dat harvesting is in prog
ress In several counties, and will be quite
general next week.
Cotton, corn and most other field crops
are in good condition, the Fields being well
cleaned and worked. Sugar cane and rice
are looking well as a rule. Gardens and
berries are needing rain very badly. 1t is
very probable that good showers have fall
len in the state during the past two days,
since the reports were mailed. Watermel-
ons need showers badly in the southern
counties

WEEK HAS BEEN UNFAvORABLE.
Cool Weather and Lack of Rain
Have Held Back the Crops.

Cool Weather and Lack of Rain
Have Held Back the Crops.
Washington, May 23-The weekly sum
mary of crop conditions, issued by the
weather bureau, is, in part, as follows:
Except in the Southern states the week
ending May %, 1899. has been unseason-
ably cool and unfavorable for termination
and growth, and while the week has been
much warmer than usual in the South
ern states. the continued absence of rain
in the western portion of Kentucky and
portions of Missouri and Arkansas has
retarded cultivation Of crops.
"NorthWard of the Missouri and Ohio
rivers, and in the Middle Atlantic states
and New England, the week has been
much too cool for corn, retarding the germ
ination and growth. In the more south
erly districts the temperature conditions
have been more favorable, but in portions
of the South Atlantic and Gulf states
the crop is suffering for rain and Is be-
ing damaged by insects.
winter wheat is reported as having
been considerably damaged by insects in
the central valleys and Middle Atlantic
states, and on the whole the prospect in
the states east of the Rocky mountains is
less encouraging than at the close of the
previous week. 1t is generally heading
low. Harvesting has begun in Texas and
Alabama.
The general condition of the oat crop Is
promising. In portions of the Southern
states, however il has suffered from
drought and in South Dakota and Wash
ington from frost Harvest has begun in
the South Atlantic and East Gulf states.
Cotton is dong fairly well in the Caro-
linas, Georgia and Texas being clean and
well cultivated. over the central portion
of the cotton belt insects have caused seri-
Gus damage, and over the southern por-
tons of the Gulf states and Florida rain
is much needed.
Tobacco is suffering from drought In
South Carolina and Florida. Transplant
ing has made rapid progress in Virginia,
and some has been transplanted in Mary
land.

WOULD NOT TEACH NEGROES.
INTERVIEW WITH LADIES WHO
WIRED EX-GOV. NORTHERN.

They Thought Moral Trninin :

south. but Did Not Care to Take
Part ThemseIves-They say They
Are Not Fitted for the work, But
They Think IL should BE Done 10y
Southern Women.
Atlanta. May 2S.-The following tele-
gram sent to former Governor Northen
and read by him during his speech in
Boston last night, mas caused quite a
commotion among the women of Atlanta
ana will doubtless cause similar interest
throughout the state. The telegram was
sent by the kindergarten League of Geor-
GA, through its officers:
You are authorized 10 say in your ad-
gia, realizing the great importance TO both
races Of early moral training of the negro
race. stand ready to undertake this work
when means are supplied
The thing that has caused the eommo-
ton is the fact that some of the ladies'
who signed the telegram, and who in
fact, had a hand in its preparation, when
pressed to the point, frankly admitted
that they have no idea Of taking a per-
sonal part in the education Of colored chill
dren.
They declare that this moral training
should be given. and in their message to
Boston, said the women of the South,
speaking through them, were ready to
take it up as soon as the means are pro-
Vided. Yet, for themselves, they beg TO
be excused from teaching classes of little
negroes, because they are not fitted for
that work.
At the same time these ladies who sent
the telegram to Boston, say that If this
moral training of negroes is TO amount to
anything, it must be given at the hands
of Southern women. not of Northern wo-
men, for they do not understand the con-
ditons and would only inculcate false doc
trines and ideas into the heads of the in
ferior race.
So far as the ladies of the kindergarten,
who sent the Boston message. are con-
cerned the situation is paradoxlcal. They
say the women of the South are ready to
take up this burden, but as individuals
they are not.
The question naturally arises, will the
women of the South indorse the Atlanta
ladies' and their Boston telegram. Mrs.
Louie NJ Gordon who Is one of the most
widely known women in the state, and one
of those who signed the Boston telegram,
said to-day that she would not herself
consent to teach class of negro children,
while Mrs. Frank p. Gale, general man
ager Of the Kindergarten League, frank
" admits that she would not do the work
herself
Several other ladies, who preferred that
their names be not used in the papers, de
clare along the same lines, while another
said she would regard it as lowering her
self to do such a work duty, as she put

Griffin, Ga, May 23.-Some time last
night large body of masked men went
to the homes of the colored employees Of
the Kincaid Manufacturing Company. and
taking them to the woods some distance
away, used the leather trace in vigorous
manner.
Three negro men employed at the mills
had been give notice to leave at once, and
not doing as commanded, they were fog
ged
The negroes tell the tale of the affair,
and it is impossible to get information else
where.
About Il O'Clock, they say, three negro
men were awakened by some one at their
door, who commanded entrance into the
house. The negroes say each place was
surrounded by armed White Caps, and SEN
tinels were placed along the roads lead
ing to the houses. At first they refused
to open the doors and one of the houses
were broken into and the occupant taken
out. Their wives were threatened death
If they raised any disturbance.
They were then carried TO the woods
some distance away and heavy leather
strap used upon their backs, which cut
the flesh at each lick.
Each negro was given about 100 lashes.
They were then placed in a line on the
hillside and told to leave the town before
morning.
The spokesman of the White Caps said
that negro laborers and white laborers
could not mix in Spalding county, and that
white women were opposed to working
with them; that they had been notified to
leave and failing to do so, it was the in
tention of the body gathered there to force
them to 80.
They were commanded to leave the coun-
ty before morning and never return again.
The negroes claim they had no notice
to leave, and the first they knew of the
affair was when the crowd woke them up
that night.
They were all badly beaten, but intend
leaving the place as early as possible
Officers are using every effort to learn
the participants in the outrage. If caught

CLASSIFICATION OF COTTON.
Plans for the Convention Are Now
Pretty Well I'm Hand.

Atlanta, May 2S.-Hon. Pope Brown,
president of the State Agricultural Soci-
ETY.. and Commissioner of Agricul-
ture Stevens will have con-
sultation tomorrow in regard to
the. details Of the proposed convention to
discuss the creation of cotton classifiers.
Mr. Brown reached the city this even
ing, and win be here several days confer
ring with Commissioner Stevens and look
ing after the interests of the agricultural
society in connection with the coming state
fair. Before he returns home ii is highly
probable that something definite will be
agreed upon in regard to the cotton classi-
flcation matter
Mr.. Brown thinks that there should be
a convention of representative people from
all the cotton-growing states and that a
concerted effort should be made to secure
similar legislation in all the states on this
subject.
Commissioner Stevens has been taking
the matter up with the commissioners of
other states, as well as with leading cot
ton growers and dealers, and he has the
views Of quite a number of them favor

Atlanta, May 23.-lt is possible that the
farmers may have the benefit of lower
