 CAUSE OF RAIN.

Operations Were Suspended in the State
 League-Meridsn yyiI CIay in This
 day-BasebaII Notes -LeaG ue Standing.
 All games in the Connecticut State league were postponed yesterday as result of the heavy rain which fell throughout the state. 4 double header was scheduled to take place on the Savin Rock grounds, the contests being between New Haven and Norwich. A large crowd would certainly have at- tended the games had the weather per mitted. To-day the Blues will play in Meriden. No game for the New Haven team is scheduled for Thursday. Mer1- den will play on the Savin Rock grounds on Friday and Bridgeport Will wind up the season in this city on Sat urday afternoon.
 Contrary to expectations George Ban- non has not gone to Toronto. He Is still in this city, and will finish the season with the Blues.
 Speisman would have caught in the games yesterday had the contests taken place. His hand has wholly recovered from the injuries sustained sometime ago.
 Cornell was very badly injured by the foul tip which split his hand last Saturday. The injury has caused him great amount of trouble and it will be several weeks before the hand is com- pletely healed.
 Springfield has second place beyond all question. Roger Connor has made money in the Forest City and people of that place have been we'll pleased with the game the Springfield team has been putting up. Bristol will probably not appear in the state league lists for sev- eral years to come.
 New London and Hartford are fight ing it out for third place honors. and the chances seem to be in Hartford's s favor pr. Reisling has made good showing despite the adverse treatment accorded him by the Hartford populace. Bridge port stands a good show Of dropping into sixth place. Norwich is only one game behind O'Rourke's hob ies' and there are many baseball en- thusiasts who would like to see O'Rourke drop to that position, that is, unless Jim pays that fine.

Athens, Ga, Aug. 3.-The State Nor
NAL School has it's two hundred schol-
arships. Tne last of that number has
been secured, and all of them are now
available. Yesterday President Branson
deposited $4,000 in the Athens Savings
Bank to the credit of the scholarship
fund; that amount represents the fifty
scholarships secured since the meeting
of the Southern Educational Confer
ence, in this city. President Branson
then drew on the general Education
Board for a like amount, all the condi-
tons imposed by that body having
been met. A check from DIR. Buttrick
will be Forthcoming in a few days.
These scholarships are of $50 each.
The student will have to supplement
them with $95, and with that sum the
expenses of an entire session of nine
months can be met

The origin of the scholarship idea
was interesting. A poor girl came to
the president of the school from a farm
in a neighboring county She wanted
any kind Of honorable work to help her
through school. No work was at hand
for her, but the members of the facul-
ty contributed and made up a scholar
ship. President Branson saw the good
that could be accomplished, and set
to work to secure more scholarships
AS result fifty were secured in a few
months. Then the General Education
BOARD gave fifty more and offered to
duplicate others to the number of fifty.
The extra fifty have now been secured,
and the General Education Board will
duplicate them. making two hundred
in all.

seventeen were from Fulton county.
eleven from Clarke and the others
from various counties in Georgia. some

Spencer of Washington, d. c., met
with a few members of the Chamber
of Commerce at the Southern Hotel in
this city last night to consult about
the sugar cane industry in this coun-

Secretary of Agriculture at Washing
ton, and Capt. Purse is also represent
ing the Agricultural Department of
the United States government at pres
ent. The two gentlemen are visiting
most of the cities and towns through
out Southern Georgia, with a view of
selecting four locations at which cx-
perlments In cane culture and syrup
manufacture can be carried on during
the coming winter. 1t is not the in
tention of the Agricultural Department
TO locate permanent experimental sta
tons at present but the department
will send four men to Southern Geor-
gia during the coming season to Sc
cure samples of soil, sugar cane and
syrup. Later, locations for the ex-
perimental stations Will be selected.
Waycross chances Of being selected
as one of the locations for the experi-
mental work Is considered good.
Mr.. |. Davis, who resides near Hy-
pert, Ca, went out on a bear hunt
near the Okefenokee swamp last week
and killed bear Weighing about 100
pounds. The bears in the neighbour
hood of the Okefenokee seem to be

reported killed the present year.

GEN. SMITH WAS SURPRISED.
Had Only Expected a Reprimnnd.
Natives of Samar Savages and Tor
tured American Soldiers

San Francisco, Aug. 3.-Gen. Jacob
H. Smith, who returned last Friday
from Manila, said to- day of his forced
retirement from the army:
1T was an unwelcome surprise to
me. l naturally supposed that 1 would
receive reprimand as a result of the
verdict of the court-martial, but moth
ing more. l have always tried to do
my duty in a conscientious manner
and conduct myself as a soldier. l am
still in the governments service and
not at liberty to discuss recent per-
sonal occurrences. l could be as
readily court martialed now as If I
were not on the retired list.
THE natives of Luzon seem consid-
erably more civilized than those of the
other islands. Some of those in Samar
are nothing but savages, and, of course
cannot be treated like civilized people,
They all would resort to most barbar-
Gus methods of warfare at times. In
stances of the torture and slaughter of
American soldiers are very numerous.
Any one of my command knows that
they were not unduly severe with the
natives. l always have tried to conduct
my campaigns according to military
regulations.

LONDON'S STOCK EXCHANGE,
Various Things Contributed to Make
1t Very Dull

London, Aug. 3.-The August holt
days, an apathetic public and in
creased demand for money all tended
to make last week on the Stock Elk
change a dull one. Once more South
Africans closed below the closing
prices at the beginning of the week,
consuls, home rails and most of the
others following suit West Africans
attracted more attention than usual.
and, with American shares, formed
the brightest features of a listless and
falling market.
The shipments Of gold from New
York and the release Of several million
pounds in dividends are now tending
to make money easier, which is hailed
as favorable to the long waited rally.
Continental holders are still continuing
to realize, however, all along the line
and the process of wedding out weak
accounts scarcely seems to be conclud-
ed. 1t is an open secret that the last
settlement would have witnessed more
failures but for the fact that opera

White Rock Ledge-Was Captains
Last Voyage and He Was One Hum
dred Miles Out of the Way.
Halifax, N. S.. Aug. 3.-With her for
ward compartments filled with water
and hole in her bottom amidships,
the freight steamer Blaamanden, Capt
Amundsen, from Hamburg for Phila-
delphia. with a general cargo, lies on
the rocks at White Point lodges in a
dangerous position. The two passen-
gers, Mrs. Moffatt of New York and
Mr.. Grey of Elizabeth, N. j., have
landed at Canso and will go home by
rail-
The Blaamanden left Hamburg on
July 20 and met with no mishap un-
I'll Saturday morning, about l o'clock,
when she went on the lodges during a
dense fog. The weather was quite
calm at the time. When the steamer
began to make water rapidly the cap
tain decided to launch the boats for
fear that she might slide off the rocks
and go down. The two passengers and
the crew were transferred, and the
boats stood by until daylight. The first
officer and the passengers proceeded to
Canso and reported the wreck The
New York agents gave instructions to
forward the passengers by rail to New
York. The crew returned to the
steamer
Capt. Amundsen was on the bridge
at the time the steamer struck and
soundings had been made continual
Iy. He thought at first that the
steamer was on Sable Island AS it is
he was over 100 miles out of his cource
and is at a loss to understand this.
He feels the loss of the steamer keen
ly, as this was to have been his last
voyage. He intended to engage in bus
mess in New York.
The cargo in the forehold of the
steamer is chiefly kainit, while the
after-compartments are filled with
dry goods, glass and liquors.
The coastal steamer City of Client,
which arrived to-day, sighted the
stranded Blaamanden yesterday and
sent a boats crew aboard with an offer
of assistance, which was declined with
thanks.
The officers of the Client believe the
Blaamanden is on the rocks to stay.
She is resting on the lodges amidships,
with heavy list to port, and her
bow under water almost to the rail.
