Nayal stere. wharf.

wharf for receiving naval stores only has just been completed by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, and hereafter all of the river and bay steamers bringing in cargoes of this nature will land at this dock.
 The wharf is located at the foot of Jenersor street. which property was acquired several years ago by the Louisville and Nashville, but never used or improved for the; reason that the company already owned thre large ex- port docks. Now the rush of business has caused the Louisville and Nashville to build substantial wharf about one hundred feet wide out into the bay, and all naval stores is to be unloaded there. Es
 The receipts of naval stores each week by water average 5000 barrels, many small river steamers and schoon- eres bringing cargoes of this charac- ter.

yesterday afternoon of the Escambia County Farmers Institute. which was held in the court house. Planters from all sections of the county gathered and took much interest in the organization of the association and the plans out lined for the betterment of condi- tions generally.
 the meeting, and the principal speak CTS were Prof. R. N. Roifs.s of the Florida Experiment. Station, and Prof. Vincent c. Brewer, connected with the United States Agricultural Department.
 Prominent and successful planters gave their views as to diversified farm ing. and the success which had attain ed such ventures. The principal matter discussed, and the one in which the greatest interest was evinced, was the growing of tobacco. Professor Vincent, who has made an especial study of the growth of tobacco in Gadsden County, Florida, addressed the planters on this subject, and added much to the inform ation alro ady obtained regarding its growth and the results that have been obtained elsewhere.
 From experiments already made by two or three companies. who are en- deavoring to introduce tobacco grow ing in Florida, it has been found that the same grade of tobacco can be grown here as in the famous Gadsden County Section. and many of the plant CTS have determined to turn their att tention the coming year to this means of farming. Shaded tobacco it has been decided, can only be grown in Florida at profit. and owing to the cost of building these sheds the farm CTS this year will not embark upon an extensive scale. but will gradually in- crease their acreage until, 1t Is fondly predicted Escambia County. Florida, and Baldwin County. Alabama, will be- come as famous as a tobacco growing section as Gadsden County. where the yield from each acre Is immense.

Bartholomew Quilter Found Noi
 Guilty To-Day.

The district court, criminal side, has adjourned to tomorrow. James DeLucia, the reputed king of copper thieves who was on trial yesterday for theft of copper was found guilty and committed to jail for three months. Sheriff John F. O'Brien took him down after court adjourned. The case of Bartholomew Quilter charged with breach of the peace in Hamilton park took an unexpected turn. A question of law arose as to whether the act Quilter was charged with having committed was breach of the peace or disorderly conduct This occasioned much argument be- tween the contending counsel. It was finally determined to let the case stand as 1t was The trial was short after that and the jury found Quilter not guilty.
