Mccullough Bros Fruit and Produce
Letter.

Atlanta, July 25--The market has been
more or less active during this week.
The demand and consumption, gener-
ally speaking is more limited at tnlS
season Of the year than any other. ASIDE
from these facts, the home gardeners
they monopolize naturally detracts fRm
the volume Of business generally done by
the produce merchant.
The recent glut on watermeons has
been very largely relieved during the
last three or four days, and with the
light receipts the market is naturally
showing more activity with better re-
suits to all parties concerned.
Cantaloupes from distance are
scarcely bringing express charges In
fact, nothing but the best varieties and
qualities are being received by the pro-
duce merchants.
Vegetables of every description are at
low tide and attracting little attention
at the hands of the trade.
Pineapple receipts much heavier With
the market unsettled and prices show
ing q downward tendency.
Peach receipts have not been excessive.
However, the demand has been less than
was anticipated, hence lower prices are
existing.
There is a great overflow Of both
onions and Irish potatoes, with light
sales, and the buyers debating their own
prices.
EGGS receipts liberal. However, no
break in the market has yet occurred
The demand for medium and large
fries continues normal at market quota
lions. Small fries are not wanted at any
thing like decent prices.
Butter Is plentiful; In fact, large
per cent of rancid stock is now accumu-
lating.

GENERAL CASSIUs M. CLAY.
Famous Kentuckian Lies Dead at
His Home, Aged 90,

Lexington, KY, July 22.--Generai Cas-
sus Marcellus Clay, ambassador TO Rus
STA under President Lincoln noted abo-
litionist and author, died at his home.
Whitehall, in Madison county, at $40
o clock tonight Death was due to general
exhaustion
General Clay was born October 10, 1910,
in Madison county He led a stirring life,
which began to tell on him In late years.
He believed conspiracy to assassinate
him had been formed and some years
ago fortified his home, Whitehall, and
entered a life of secluson that ended only
few weeks ago, when the courts ap-
pointed committee to take charge of
him and his effects.
Clay was one of the most picturesque
figures In American politics in the six
ties. His home at White Hall has been
guarded by armed men. A loaded cannon
sits in his hallway and his room Is a
veritable arsenal gathered for the pur-
pose of repelling an attack of an imagi-
nary vendetta.
General Clay fought several duels when
he was in active politics and his abolition
sentiments drew him into several bloody
fights IN Kentucky.
Several years ago Clay created a great
sensation by marrying a 16-year-old coun-
try girl. The girl was very ignorant, but
Clay said he would educate her. Life
with the venerable general, however.
palled on Dora and she fell in love with
young fellow named Brock. When
Clay was Informed he allowed Dora to
get a divorce and fixed sum of money
on her when she married Brock. Some
time ago Brock was killed in railroad
accident and since then Clay has been
importunng Dora to return.

JUDGE GARY TO GRAND JURY.
He Says Election Frauds In Rich
mond County Must Stop.

Augusta. Ga. July 22.-(Special.)-On
Monday. when the superior court con-
vened for The July term, Judge Gary
devoted the larger part of his charge to
the grand jury to election frauds In this
city. Among other things. he said
THE evil can be destroyed If our best
citizens will unite for its DESTRUCTION
Let some Of our worthy grand jurors de-
wise a plan. Many of US may not De
able to say that we have not been guilty,
but any of us in good faith may agree
not to do so any more You cannot leg
islate morals into unwilling hearts. NO
matter what plan is adopted II the Hla-
iority of our voters are not opposed to
the evil 1t cannot be suppressed by
pl7arisaical charges to grand juries, nor
by an occasional indictment against some
friendless criminal. l urge you to re-
member that 1t is a high privilege OIL
grand jurors to originate and cultivate
a public sentiment which has for 1ts op-
ject the welfare of our people"
1t is a notable fact that prominent
members of the grand jury have been
prominent leaders in local politics, fully
conversant with the methods employed
This afternoon the grand jury made
presentmenrs and recommended legisla-
ton that would make all laws governing
general elections and the purchase OIL
votes applicable to primary elections;
that registration for primaries shall close
four months before the primary; that
the payment of voters taxes by canol-
dates be prohibited. and the raising OF
funds by or for candidates prior TO an
election beyond an amount necessary 10
defray legitimate expenses be prima
facie evidence of intention to use the
same unlawfully and justify ruling out
such a candidate; that a club be formed
to carry these regulations and such others
as may be adopted into execution:
ITO this end we urge all good citlzens
in sympathy with this movement to
unite and as evidence of our perfect sim
cerity and of our desire to see these re-
forms accomplished. We pledge our CO.
operation, individually and collectively,
and that such organization as heretofore
suggested may be Immediately perfected:
we invite the clergy. the judges ana
solicitors OF the several courts OF this
county, the mayor and members of coun..
ell of this city and Of the village or

Of our daily papers. the white primary

ty executive committee, and all others
indorsing this movement to meet the
members of this body at the court house.

TO AVOID TROUBLE AT POLLS.
Election Managers in Mississippi
Given Advice.

Jackson. Miss, July 22-(Speciat)-As
the date for the first primary on the 9Th
of August approaches. the election man
ayers are being urged to stiffen up their
backbones and assumS the moral courage
necessary to withstand all the tempta-
tons that will confront them on that
memorable day. particularly in reference
to the disqualified citizens who will ap-
pear at ting polls and demand the right
TO vote, despite the fact that they failed
to pay their poll taxes. The general
instructions to election managers are to
allow only persons to vote whose names
are on the poll books, but occasionally
a citizen viii appear with a poll tax re-
ceipt, properly dated. but which was is
sued by the sheriff after February /. and
demand that he be allowed to cast his
ballot Registration alone is not sufficient
qualification for suffrage at the prima-
ry, and If the election managers stick
strictly to the poll books they will avoid
all trouble and the possibility Of con-
tests and complications afterwards.

NO WEEVIL EAST OF TEXAS.
Government Expert SCOTS at the
Story From Alabama.

Washington July 22.-(Special)-Dr. L.
o. Howard, chief Of the bureau of ento-
mology In the department of agriculture
stiIl refuses to believe that the Mexican
boil weevil has passed the borders OF
Texas and Is to be found east OF the
Mississippi sriver.
When his attention was called to an
account that has been widely published
in the southern states OF the exhibition
of samples Of the boil weevil from
plantati ton Is miles south of Montgomery,
Ala, he said that he was confident that
there had been some mistake about the
matter. This exhibition was made a a
meeting of the Ginners' Association of
Alabama at Montgomery, Ala, on July
10, and those who saw the insects do not
seem to have entertained any doubt as
TO their being genuine Mexican DOLL
weeyils. DR.. Howard has received nu-
merous samples OF weevils from Ala
bama and other cotton states east Of
the Mississippi which the senders have
believed to be the Mexican boil Weevii.
In every case thus far an examination
of the insects has shown them to be
samples of weevils Of other varieties
which are well known to the entomolo-
gist and which are not harmful to cotton
The season has not yet advanced far
enough for DR. Howard to venture any
predictions az to the extent OF the dam
age that will probably be done by the
weevil In the infected districts IN Texas
this year. He Is receiving reports from
time to time from his agents who are
conducting experiments on Texas planta-
lions. The most interesting report thus
far received is one bearing out the theo-
res of the department as to the greater
vitality of cotton grown from northern
seed. One Of the experimental tracts
near Victoria, Tex, was completely over
flowed after the cotton plants were well
grown and the plants were covered with
silt. After the food sunsided these plants
continued to grow, while all the cotton
outside of the experimental tract that
had been overfowed was killed

the late replanted districts In the Mis-
Sissippi valley. Slight damage by hail
is reported from Nebraska. In some parts
of Ohio rain is needed. Winter wheat
harvest is now practically complete and
reports still indicate a light yield of fair
quality, except in Kansas, where the
yield is heavy and quality good Spring
