The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1899-11-11

A grand jury in Philadelphia recently
reported to the court that 1t found a great
preponderance of colored defendants" and
in casting about for an explanation of why
there should be such a large percentage
of crime among the black population, the
grand jury reached the conclusion that it
was due to the limitations under which
they live in our midst" by these limi-
tations." says the report. there are fewer
avenues of employment open to them;
they are largely excluded from employ
mcnt in our industrial establishments,
and are therefore. consigned to securing
work OF the lowest and severest kind. "
The grand jury. however, could suggest
no remedy for the condition of affairs. 1t
was Booker Washington. we believe. who
said that the right to work was much
more important to the negro than the
right to vote or to sit at the table with
the white man. and that the right to work
was more generally accorded to the negro
in the South than any other section of the
country.

GOOD TIMES IN FLORIDA.

1t was thought after bhe orange groves
were destroyed over the greater part of
the orange section of Florida, that it
would be years before the state would
again have a fair degree of prosperity,
But we cannot see far into the future.
The stare is now having greater prosperity
than for a long time previously. The
orange groves are not of course in bear
ing condition again, but il will be but a
few years before the orange crop viii be
pretty nearly as large as it ever was. In
the meantime the farmers have turned
their attention to tobacco and early veg
etables.
Just now, however the prosperity is not
owing to the products Of farms and or
chards, but to phosphate, lumber and
naval stores. The prices of all of these
articles have advanced from fifty to one
hundred per cent, and there is great activ-
ity in all of them. The output of lumber
and phosphate is very large, and that of
naval stores is increa sing rapidly. For
tunes are being made in Florida and there
is plenty of employment for those who
are seeking it in the phosphate mines,
lumber camps and on the turpentine farms.

Just 200 invitations were sent out, and of that number 157 have already subscribed and there are no more to come. The first afternoon meeting of the new club was held last week at the home of Mrs H.

kEW H1V POLO TEAM PLAY ALL
 AROUND INDIANS.
Both Cashmsn and Lations Put Up Brilliant Gnme-Bone and Whipple Keep Cotter and Ills Team on the De- fcnstve Most of the Time-Score 7-O.

A large crowd witnessed the Hart ford polo team receive crushing de- feat at the hands of the Blues last night. Cotter and his men were late in arriving and made the crowd very inn patient by their delay, which could have been saved had they left by an earlier train. They were also minus substitute and were compelled in the second period to pay the penalty by Everstts skate breaking and thus com- polling them to play with four men un- til goal had been made.
 There was only one team in the game last night and that was the Blues, who completely played the Hartford contln- gent to q standstill The first period was a very fast one. Bone and Whip pie were playing like flash, while the the blocking of the Whiting brothers completely broke up the usually fine play displayed by Wodtke and Mooney. The only two goals in this period were scored by Bone, the first after some pkllIiduI SluPpiilS Uy GdoliiIiuL anu tAAS second on a beautiful pass by w. Whit ing.
 The second period was similar to the first, the Blues playing an aggressive game and keeping the Hartfords on the defensive. During this part of the game Bone's skate broke and Leydon took his place. After some very hard play ing on the part of Whipple and Leydon A1 IoJ al number three Brilliant playinn on the part of Bone enabled Whpple to score the only other goal in this period.
 Bone opened the third period by scor- ing a goal in fifteen seconds. After this Cotter and his meen seemed com pletely played out and the Blues did not exert themselves to any great eX- tent Hobe Whiting scored a clever goal in the final period by quick shot from the middle of the rink. Sum mary:

Colonel Mills sent word TO Commander
Ingersoll of the Annapolis and the latter,
