Mr. and Mrs, T. G. Hymwi Return From a
Southern Trip Grainy Ptuttd ind
- BinefitUd.
Mr: and airs. T. G. Hyman returned
yesterday from Savannah where they
attended the fourth annual 'meeting of
the Southern Supply &. Machinery
Dealers Association, i They were de
lighted with their trip especially with
their yisit at Savannah. -
They enjoyed the hospitality of the
citizens immensely. They were given
receptions, rides, picnics and the social
events for their entertainment were
numerous. They have the warmest
words of praise for their splendid re
ception. '.
The meeting was interesting and im
portant. An auxiliary known-as the
American Supply and Machinery Manu
facturers Associatioa. was organized
and the twos working together will be
of great assistance to each other. The'r
aggregate wealth represented in the
meeting was cnirmous and perhaps
nothing could show to better advantage
the progress and wealth of the South
than such a meeting. - Many millions
of dollars were represented there. The
Savannah News speaks of it as being
one of the. most important meetings
ever held in that city. . .
Mr. Hyman was honored m the con
vention appointments by ' being - made
Chairman of the Transportation Com
mittee and was also made a member of
the Executive Committee for the com'
ing year. In the convention he was
Chairman of the Grievance Commit
tee.
One of the most unique and enter
prising features oi the association was
the handsome program. It was I work
of art and beauty and contained much
interesting Information . of Savannah.
It is filled with cuts of fine views of
the streets, residences and other attrac
tions of the city. ,
After the convention" Mr. and Mrs.
Hyman visited in Jacksonville Fla.,
and Charleston, 8. C, ano: reported
very pleasant time. Tbey spent Sun
day in Jacksonville and found H as hot
there as the weather ever gets to be
hers in July. . ' .

SERIOUS LOSS. TO GROWERS
Caused ky c; Car Famta oa Atlantic Coui

, Thousand of Dollars.
Wilmington Messenger 3rd;
(The car famine has become worse,
and a produce man direct from Chad
bourn yesterday stated that in the
strawberry belt there were at least 150
cars of berries in the crates at the sta
tions ready to be shippedbut no cars
could be secured to. ship them. He
stated, that the produce men had re
fused to purchase any more berries un-
til .Ihey could see an opportunity of
getting cars. The gentleman who was
mpkinn' of the matter said a fair esti
mate of the. value of i car of berries
was $500, which jvould mean that $75,
000 worth of berries have been ruined
The
during The past few days. The farm
ers are disheartened, but they are de
termined to make some one, either the
railroad or Armour Car Line, make
good their losses.
The strawberry shipments at Chad-
bourn during the past week were enor
mous and, this week will be the time
when the lanrest quantity of berries
should have been shipped from Chad-
bourn, but instead of being able to get
them to. the northern markets the ber
ries will be lost.
Instead of over one hundred cars go
ing north yesterday, as should have
been the case only 45 cars were got
away. On Monday 155 cars were ship
ped and then between 75 and 90 cars of
berries were left on the ground for
lack of cars. The cars that have been
used have been packed to their utmost
capacity.
