PEACH GROWERS HOLD
RAILROADS AT FAULT.
For Failure of the Crop TO Pan out
Probably.


Probably.
Adairsville, Ga, Aug. ia meeting
of peach growers Will be held here on
Aug. % to discuss their grievances
against the railroads, and it is believed
suit will be instituted.
The returns are most disappointing.
The crop has been grown at loss,
whereas in the past large profits have
been made. This year cars of extra hne
Elbertas have only brought the grower
$50 net, when last year car would
bring from $500 to 500. 1t was not on
account of the quality of the fruit nor
the fault in any respect of the grower.
1t is placed by the growers at the door
of the railroads.
They claim that their fruit had to re-
main here piled on the ground in the
sun and rain for as much as thirty-siX
hours, waiting to be loaded into cars.
The railroad claims they could not get
the refrigerator car people to furnish
cars and they in turn said they could
not procure ice.

Japs Nav Capture It.

A dispatch from San Francisco last night
says: On board the Pacific Mall steamer
Korea, leaving Honolulu yesterday for the
orient. Is a shipment of supplies for yiadi-
vostok. valued at H.496. 1t consists prin-
cIpaIly of fifty-one carloads of barrel beef,
which is to be transshIpped at Nagasak to
It's destination. Now that war has begun.
Japan's cruisers are pretty sure to attempt
to intercept the Korea and take off these
supplies. There are slender chances that
the supplies will ever reach viadfvostok.
The steamer Coptic which left here on
January Is, carried a small shipment of
beef for Vladivostok. but that was trans
shipped before the war began.

Railroad Bars Women stenographers.

Another railroad has placed ban upon
women stenographers and clerks. MIR. I'm
derwood, president of the Erie system, has
just issued an order that hereafter no wo-
men are to be employed in the offices of
this road. The women now working for
the Erie are not to be discharged. but no
more are to be hired, and as soon as one
quits the vacancy is to be filed by man.
The primary objection to women in the
railroad business is their inadaptability to
promotion. Civil service is a feature of
railroad work, and the ladder OF promotion
is carefully guarded The stenographers
are In line for better positions. and when
women are employed this line in broken be-
cause they are not fitted for other branches
of work in this particular business.

French Opinion on the Torpedoing.

French Opinion on the Torpedoing.
A cablegram from Paris last night says:
The Japanese are severely censured for tor
pedoing the Russian ships without declaring
war. Their conduct is described as a second
violation of international usage. At the
same time the Russian commanders are
freely criticised for allowing themselves to
be caught mapping.
Naval experts think the operation throws
no fresh light on the tactical value of tor
pedoes, as the Russians apparently were
lying at anchor. without taking precautions.
Despite all of Deicasse's assurance that
France retains liberty of action, an uneasy
feeling prevails in many quarters in regard
to the possibility of this country becoming
involved Although there may be no
written pledge for France TO take action
II Great Britain or even China Joins with
Japan; n IN felt that France would be NOR
ally bound In this contingency to help her
ally. ~
