NEW MARINE RAILWAY
IESTED YESTERDAY
TUG INCA WAS SUCCESSFULLY
PULLED OUT OF THE
WATER.

Tne Brunswick Foundry, Machine
and Manufacturing Company, r. e.
Bresewick; manager has now one OF
the best marine railways OF any port
the size of brunswick on the South
Atlantic Coast. Yesterday the new
railway was tried for the .rst time
and it was a success in every sense
of sthe word. Superintendent Hen
sell, who, by the way, knows his busi
ness, had everything in shape when
he gave tne work to the tug Inca,
one of he largest boats in the har-
Dor. left old neptune and went grace
fully up the railway without a single
hitch
The work on the new marine rail
way nas been under way for some
time and considering the fact that
everything was made and put together
right here in Brunswick, not only
speahs well for the shop but for the
city.
A schooner of ordinary size, say
three master. can be handled as
easily as the Inca and it will only
be short time before these vessels
can be seen almost constantly on
the marine railway. Other improve
ments are in progress Briesenick's
shop and if council grants the lease
asked for on the foot Of Dartmouth
street boiler factory VIII be erect
ed and that it will be a great success
there is no doubt. TO Mr. Briesenick
Mr.. Hensell and Mr.. Stahl grea, credit
is due and the News hopes Inat the
enterprise, Which they so successfully
operate, will continue to grow in the
future as it has in the past.

THE CROP CONDITIONS.
Weather Conditions Not as Favorable
as Desired.


as Desired.
Washington, Sept o.-The weekly
summary of crop conditions made by
the agricultural department says:
The temperature conditions in the
northern districts east Of the Missouri
valley during the week ending Sep
tember ] were more favorable for
maturing crops than in tne previous
week, but as in the two weeks pre-
ceding, excessive high temperatures
prevailed, central and western gulf
districts, including Oklahoma and In
dian Territory. Continueu absence of
ram has intensied the drouth in the
west Gulf districts and ram is genera
ly needed in the Chic valley and in
coast districts from south New Eng
land to the Carolinas
In the states Of the Missouri val
ley and in portions Of the upper Mis-
sissippI valley, corn has made fair
progress, but has not malueu rapidly,
owing to low temperatures and exces-
sige moisture.
Dry, warm weather is greatly neeo-
ed in the Missouri valley for the
maturity OF corn.
But little rain has fallen over much
the greater part Of the cotton oelo
westward of the Mississippi river dur
ing the past month, the last three
weeks of which have been excessively
warm, the week ending September 1
being practically rbinless over the
greater part of Louisiana, portions of
Arkansas and Oklahoma.

DARlEN-SAVANNAH CLUB WERE
VICTORIOUS IN BALL GAME
YESTERDAY.
The SCORE WAS FIVE TOTWO
Brunswick Boys Made Many Errors
in the Fifth Inning Which
Cost Them the
Game

How easy it could have been won,
yet how easy il was lost
Probably the.4argest crowd that has
ever witnessed a baseball game in
Brunswick was out yesterday after
noon to see the game between Bruins
wick and Darien-Savannah in which
the latter were victorious by score
OF to 2.
The home team lost the game, no,
by the good playing OF the visitors,
but by the very poor playing of a
majority of the loqals. who made
errors galore and at a time when they
meant runs.
> Walker was in the box for Bruins
wick and pitched in his usually good
fashion, but the support he received
would have lost the game for Cy
Young or any other pitcher The
visitors only got five scattering hits
during the game but tney did not
need safe hits to get to first base, it
was only necessary to hlr the ball to
shortstop. the local would either FUN
BILE or cnrow carelessly to first and
here the baseman generally forgot to
each the sphere.
rhe game, while full of errors and
iistless playing by botn sizes, was

those so or rs Darien rooters who ac-
companled the Darien-Savannah boys
oyer--it they didn't have a good time
Well the entire crowd will ne unable
to speak above a whisper for at least
ten days. but they don't mind tnat so
long as they made their exit with
victory. The entire crowd occupied
conspicuous place in the grand
stand and the bleacners.
They were as mum as oysters as
long as the locals were in the lead,
but when in the fifth inning. the Oar
ten-Savannah aggregation made three
scores on account of careless errors
by Croyatt, Coleman and others. they
put up an awful yell an ~ was con
tinued until the last ball was pitched
across the plate.
Brunswick went 20 the bat first ana
failed to score. while Darien-Sayanna
made one run in their first inning.
Brunswick scored two in the second,
which ended their run-mah4ng for the
game
In the fifth Darien-Savannah crossed
the home plate three times, none OF
the runs, however, being earned.
Crovatt, Coleman and hopkins all
made inexcusable errors Which vir-
tually lost the game for the locals.
he visitors made another run in the
seventh inning.
McGrath was in the box for Darien-
Savannah and did some good work.
Ibe home boyspcould not MAKE hits
when they were most needed, in fact
they only made five nits during the
game. Dan Charlton, me wei known
Savannah catcher was beAlnd the
bat for the visitors and played an
excellent game as he generany does.
Downey, of Savannah, also did good
work at shortstop.
there were not many features to
the game, except the good work OF
both the pitchers and me pretty catch
OF Hopkins in the seventh.
The Darien-Savannah club returned
to their respective homes last night
and were inbilant over their victory.

FOUR PORTS TO
WORK TOGETHER
-
BRUNSWICK, SAVANNAH, JACK
soNVILLE AND FERNAN-
DINA IN 1T.
TO KEEP OUT OPPOSITION
Tugs Neptune and Dandy Which Have
Been Working in These
= Waters Have Both
Been Sold.

well founded rumor in marine cir
cles is going the rounds at present,
and there seems to be some trnth in
it, according to tug ooat eals which
have taken place during the present
week
The rumor Is to the effect that with
in the next few weeks, all tow boat
companies of Brunswick, Savannah.
Jacksonville and Fernandina will
come together and lorm somewhat OF
"towboat trust"
For many years all of ,Ae ABOVE
named places nave had more or less
opposition from tug boats of other
ports. he Neptune has been running
opposition to the Brunswick boats,
while the tug Dandy has been doing
considerable work around Savannah.
The News few days ago told of
the sale of the Neptune to the Az
lantic Coast Line railway, and now
comes the information tina. the Dandy
has been purchased by a Savannah
towboat company.
The sale of these two boats prac-
tically does away with all opposition
along this part OF the coast and it
is the object OF the towboat companies
o. me four above named cities to form
a combination for the purpose OF keep
ing out opposition OF course the
companies do not intend to form a
partnership exactly but they will all
work in harmony.
The sale of the Neptune removes
all opposition on Brunswicks bar and
the boats of the South Atlantic Tow
ing company now nave clear field.
Ihe Neptune cut considerable ngure
on the bar however while the opposi.
ton was on. She was quick at sea
and generally came out pretty well
in ner races for tows. The Brunswick
company was forced to keep more
boats at the bar than necessary. The
Neptune was making little or notn-
ing from her operations and the
Brunswick company was being put to
much extra expense.
A meeting OF representatives OF all
tug boat companies of the four ports
wall probably be neld at an early date
at which plans, etc, Tor the combine
will be arranged.
The towDoat men, of course, have
very little to say on the subject just
a. present, but it is known that such
movement is now on foot and has
been talked of considerably in marine
circles lately.
In speaking OF the sale of tio Dandy
yesterday Savannah News says:
The Propeller TowDoat Company
took possession OF the tug Dandy on
yesterday, which it bought from Da-
rien and Sapelo Towboat Company,
and by this closed the towboat war
which has been warmly waged for
several months. Negotiations for the
purchase have been on for several
weeks, the Propeller Towboat Com
panys end in charge of Mr.. William f.
McCauley, treasurer and a large stock
holder 1t was largely through him
that the towboat war ends.
The disinclination which exists to
the establishing OF precedents of buy
ing up competing boats was largely
responsible for the prolonged fight
which the Propeller Company engaged
in wnen the Dandy was sent here
from Darien to cruise on the Savan-
nan bar.

TEAMS WILL PLAY AGAIN

How Money May BE Used to Great
Public Advantage.
American Medicine.

American Meulclne.
1t is a truism that, used for selfish
agency, but the world Is only just begin
ming TO realize that, devoted to the pre-
vention of disease and of evil wealth is
the essential prerequisite of human prog
less in our modern world. 1t must secure
the means for realizing progress or benefi-
cence. IN his recent presidential address
before the British Association, Professor
Dewar illustrated this truth as regards the
relative use of chemistry by the English
and German nations. In 1901 there were
three times as many trained chemists en-
ployed in Germany as in the United King
dom. The German chemists, furthermore
are as superior in technical training and
requirements as in numbers, for the Eng
atically trained chemists against s4 per
cent in German works. Yet these German
industries. estimated at 50.000 900 per an
mum. are largely founded on basic discov-
cries made by English chemists never
properly appreciated or scientifically de-
veloped In England. And the still more
significant thing is not the appropriation
by the Germans of these industries but
the fact that IL will take two generations
of hard work to enable the English to
reach the level already reached by the
Germans, while Germany possesses ma
tional weapon Of precision which must give
her an enormous initial advantage in any
and every contest depending disciplined
and methodized intellect. But IL this is
il of the greatest asset OF a nation, her
living citizens and their health? The recent
demonstration in our country OF a quick
ened appreciation OF the value OF medical
science, consisting in the endowments for
medical research and higher education, are
OF tremendous importance not only to
medicine, but to our national welfare and
progress. There Is no way our wealthy
themselves, and at the same time do SO
much good to their fellow men.
