now been completed about two thirds
of the distance, and with four or FIVE
days more of uninterrupted work II
will be completed.

have reached the bayou. 1t has now
been finished from the depot site on
Coyle street to Galvis Springs. about
two blocks west of the distillery and
only half a dozen blocks from the

New Orleans, manager at Bluefields

at the Bluff he was met by marine
pageant consisting of number of
decorated dories and the steamer

a break for liberty, and Tom McManus
fired three shots, ali taking effect.

days. The replies by the Balkan
states to the note of the powers vir-
tually rejecting Intervention, will be
delivered at the various capitals to-
morrow. At the same time the notes
are practically in the shape of an ulti-

ing autonomy for the Macedonian
provinces.
According to reliable dispatch
from Rome the Balkan coalition will
make a demand which will be praeti

that reforms be executed under the

that Turkey will assent, the imme-

The value Of wireless telegraphy to

is fast becoming apparent. The wire

interests of the world through the
cooperation of the navy department
with the department of agriculture

this service was noticeable on the
weather maps issued from the Wash
ington office dated October 5, and

ment off the South Carolina coast.
On the morning of the 7th the pres
sure at the center of the storm,
which was apparently about $50 miles
off the South Carolina coast, was
$3.50 inches. The storm at that time
was severe and had a slow northerly
movement.
1t will be remembered that sim
liar storm reached the South At
lantic coasts near Savannah at a.
M, on the 2Sth of August, 1911, and
caused considerable damage in Savan
nah and Charleston. At that time
the need of wireless reports from
vessels at sea was keenly felt by the
weather bureau because the storm
had existed off the South Atlantis
coast four days without any indica-
ton of Its presence being. detected.

Tallahassee, Oct. 1S.-The Florida
railroad commissioners have issued
an order effective October 25th, with
regard to the movement of fruits and
vegetables by express. that will be of
considerable benefit to the shippers
and receivers of those commodities
in this state
Under the rule now in force, the
rate on shipment moving over two
or more lines of railroad by express,
Is made by adding the local rates of
two or more lines and deducting ten
per cent Under the new rule, the
rate on a shipment moving over two
lines Of road will be the sum of the
locals on each line, less twenty per
cent and on a shipment moving over
three lines OF road or more the rate
will be the sum of the locals of each
line less thirty per cent. Below is
given an illustration of the result of
the application of the new tariff.
REDUCTION ON ORANGES.
A shipment from Wauchula to Ma
rianna would pass over three roads
and the rate at present on oranges
between these points is 85 cents per
box, on vegetables 72 cents per crate.
The new rate on oranges is Sc 1-2
cents per box, a reduction of 10 cents.
and the new rate on vegetables, Sc
cents per crate, a reduction of 16
cents.
A shipment from wauchula to De-
Funiak Springs would pass over
three roads. The present rate on
oranges between said points is 80
cents per box and the rate on vege
tables Is cents per crate The new
rate on oranges is 20 cents per box.
reduction of 20 cents. and on vege-
tables 56 cents. reduction of Is
cents.

reached from South Florida excep;
by the use of two or more lines OF
