began bleeding from the repeated stiff
Jaos, and terrific punches on the law
annoyed him. In the eighth round hon
ors were even and both men appeared
10 be much to the bad. 1t was a toss
up TO pick the winner and had this
round been the only one, the bout
would have been draw. In the ninth
and last round Corcoran fell to the
moor twice and in getting up avoided
dangerous swings. The Savannah
boxer landed on the Brooklyn mans
nose moment before he felt the law
with his powerful right, and Douglass
was uncomfortable when the punch
was followed by the knockout.
AS a preliminary Kid Kelly and
BERTHE Cecil went in for the WRESTLING
game. Kelly won the third fall and
got the decision. This exhibition was
followed by fast six-round go he
tween Joe Sheehan from the West Side
and Jake Hurt from the East Side. The
bout was not fake one, and the men
went at 1t from start to finish. Both
boys worked hard, but Sheehan was
much the cleverer. They lost but little
time in clinches and the fighting was
faSt throughout the six rounds. Shee-
nan got the decision on points. 1t was
announced that owen Zeigler will meet

ETHERIC SPACE TELEGRAPHY.
me Part Ii Is Likely to Play in
Weather Bureau system,

Apropos of the wide interest in the
remarkable results recently attained
by Marconi in wireless telegraphy, it
is not so generally known that the
government under the direction of
Prof. Willis L. Moore of the Weather
Bureau, has been experimenting for
several years along the same lines, and
is now successfully operating the sys-
tenn along the North Carolina and Vir-
ginia coasts.
In his annual report for 1901, just
received by the Savannah Weather Blu
reau, Prof. Moore says that "substan-
tai improvements have been made
during the past year in the Weather
Bureau system of wireless telegraDhy.
The line of research has been divided
into three classes: First, the perfec-
uon of a more powerful transmitter,
In Which the energy of radiation shall
be greatly increased; second the de-
Vlsing of a more delicate receiver, one
that would be positive instead of de-
pending upon an imperfect and varia-
BILE contact, as do all systems now
In use; and, third, the perfection of a
system of SelectiVe biography whereby
messages can be differentiated and
only the receiver that it is desired
shall receive the message become re-
sDonsiVe to the waves of ether.
THE first of these problems may be
said to have been successfully solved.
and a transmitJer devised capable of
radiating all the energy generated; the
second is believed to be nearing sue
cessful solution: the third is thought
to be we'll demonstrated theoretically,
but has not been fully tested in prac-
tice.
while there is much experimental
work yet to be done before our system,
or any system of which | have knowi-
edge, is reliable for intership commu-
nlcation. or before any two systems
can work within the same field with
out each rendering the other useless,
such progress has been made by the
government experimenters that, with
no interference by private systems
stations can be successfully operated
over at least $50 miles of coast on the
North Carolina and Virginia coasts,
and soon will be instituted between
the Farallone Islands and the MAIN
land, and Tatoosh Island and the MAIN
land. on the Pacific coast.
IF system of selective telegraphy
can not be perfected so that one svs-
tenn does not interfere with and rem
der useless another and thereby pre-
vent all use to commerce of recent dis
coveries in wireless biography, it may
become necessary, on account of the
value of these discoveries to our ma
rine interests, for the government to
take exclusive control of all systems
of etherfc space biography and to es-
tablish stations along our extensive
coast lines at such distances and IN
such relation, the one to the other,
that they shall not interfere Even
will r,1 IA
Guilty in communicating with the main
land whenever two ships in close prox-
unity are attempting to transmit or
receive messages at the same time"

DEMURRAGE CHARGES STAND.
An Agent Says Railroads Are Justi-
fled in Making Them.

The lumber dealers will hardly sue
coed in bringing about the increase of
the period that cars may be kept load
ed before demurrage is charged. The
agent of one of the lines said yester
day that they have perfect right to
make such charges after five days,
and that they will continue to do so.
Lumber dealers are endeavoring to in
duce the Railroad Commission to in
crease the period to ten days, as it
stood before it was reduced some time
ago to five days.
lumber dealer who handles as
many as 200 cars of lumber a. month
probably has to pay about $40 to $50
a month demurrage under the five
days limit, the agent said. 1t is
where lumber is to be shipped by the
steamships that have regular sailing
dates that the difficulty is encountered,
he said. In such cases the wharves
are often filled. and room cannot be
made to unload a car until two days
before a ship is to sail. Demurrage
charges, 81 a day on a car, result.
Where lumber is received for ship
ment by sailing vessels, it may be I'M
loaded at the wharves of those by
whom it is received. 1t is seldom that
demurrage charges are made in such
cases. as the cars are unloaded within
the limit.
The railroads have been needing
empties badly lately. and that has
caused them to reduce the limit OF
unloading. The shippers in the interior
wanted the time reduced also, as they
had to listen to the railroads COM
plants of "A scarcity of cars.

BALTIMORE'S BALL TEAM.
VIII Reach Savannah for PreIimi-
nary Spring Practice in ApriI.

Mr.. John j. McGraw and Mrs. Nc
Graw OF Baltimore, reached Savannah
yesterday and are guests of the Pu-
laski. Mr.. McGraw is probably one of
the best known baseball players in the
United States, the third baseman of
the Baltimore team, and played that
position when that team was a mem
Der of the National League and the
best team in it.
Mr.. McGraw is still connected with
the team, though now it is a member
OF the American League, but he may
not play with it this season. He is
here, however, to arrange for a trip
of the team to Savannah in the spring,
probably about April 1, and a stay of
two or three weeks to get in shape for
the opening of the regular schedule of
games in the North.
II will have with the team on this
visit" said Mr.. McGraw yesterday,
'about eighteen men, practically all of
the players of last season, among whom
are McGinnity and Hughes, whom /
consider the best pitchers in the league,
and also several youngsters that are
promising lot and whom we hope to
develop"
To-day Mr. McGraw will see the
agents of the Bolton Street Park with
a view of securing that place in which
to have his men put in their practice
while here. The Baltimore team was in
Savannah for this preliminary work in
1899, and also number of times be-
fore that, so that some of the men are
quite likely to find number of friends
here. Mr.. McGraw stated that the
Cleveland team probably will be in
Augusta about the time his team
reaches Savannah and also that either
Boston or Washington will be in Char
lesion, and that he hopes to have sew
eral games among these teams and
will be glad to have his men meet the
local players if the latter care to get
a team together for that purpose.
