PEACHES MOVING BETTER,
RAILROAD OFFICIALS SAY
Central of Georgia Agents De-
clare Only Fourteen Cars
Have Been Lost

MACON, Ca, July 1s.-The Georgia
peach situation is not quite so black as
has been painted, according to railroad
officials and growers today. One hum
dred and fifty cars left Georgia yester-
day and equally as many will go to-
day. Superintendent of Transportation G.
b. Gambler, Of the Central of Georgia
railway, today furnished the following
statement on the fruit situation, showing
that about only Is cars have been lost.
I'VE will probably be in position to ali
with reasonable promptness nearly all
orders for cars in which to load fruit
that is now being picked and packed.
I'm our territory yesterday there were
approximately 100 cars OF peaches pack
ed and stored in packing houses and sta
ton platforms waiting for cars not
a. ailable at "a. time. The majority OF
this fruit, according to reports we have
received, was in reasonably good ship
ping condition and we hope to be able
to get it to market in that state.
so far as my information goes at
this time, there has not as yet been a
total loss Of more than IA or 10 carloads
OF fruit
"As to responsibility for failure to
provide cars as required, this question
has not been gone into, All neforts now
being direr.cd Il taking care OF fruit
that is in proper condition for market
ing.
THE Central railway has an agreement
with the Armour lines to supply neces-
sary cars and ice and to look after the
proper refrigeration of all fruit that is
offered us, and the trouble in providing
a sufficient number OF cars when need
ed must be due to unavoidable causes.
This Is matter. however, that will Of
course be handled later"

CROP PROSPECTS ARE
Better IN DOUGLAS

DOUGLAsvILLE, Ga, July 1s.-After a
weeks steady work, the farmers of Doug
las county are more encouraged over
crop prospects. At times there were
showers that interfered to some extent,
but a wonderful change has been wrought
in crop conditions.
Prominent farmers Of the county state
that the corn prospects are probably the
hest in the history of the county, and
there is an unusually large acreage the
present year.
OF course in the lowlands there are
some spots that have been injured by
high water, but even in the bottoms the
crop is promising. Cotton is backward,
small, and not very promising.

BY CONSTANCE CARRUTHERs,

WASHINGTON, April SO.-(special Dis
patch to The Bee)-Mrs. Alice Roose-
welt Longworth will, upon her re-
turn from Europe, set about with
great determination to bring about
a revival of the old French salon in
Washington This is the most ambitious
project which Washington society has un-
dertaken in many a day and Mrs. Long
worth is leading the movement, 1 hear that
some day the rule in Washington will be
small, select functions with only occa-
sionalIy q big crush reception to which ali
society is bidden.
This city seems to have the foundation
for a salon. The resident society is cul-
tured and polished and its cosmopolitan
nature is such as to initiate the great
social centers of Europe where the salon
still thriyes in some degree.
The foreign born contingent Of the cap
ital society would joyously welcome the
return of this ancient and classic French
institution. Indeed, among those who will
assist Mrs. Longworrh in bringing it about
is the Countess GAY, wife of the naval
attache Of the French embassy.
Mrs. Larz Anderson Of Boston and Wash
ingtou, who goes in for literature and Mrs.
Preston Gibson, who dabbles in art ooca-
sionally, are others interested in the re-
viyal of the salon While the artistic popu-
ation Of Washington is not extremely large
this city is near enough to New York to
make tho Importation Of artistic celebrities
a very easy matter
/ should mention Mrs. Herbert Wads-
worth as another salon possibility"
have heard no expression from Mrs. Taft
upon the proposed salon, but l daresay
she favors 1t. II is certain that President
Taft looks with favor upon it.
