EXCHANGE.
report Of the Committee on the '.Sight
Draft Grievances"

At a special meeting of the Merchants
Exchange yesterday morning, the COM
mittee appointed at a previous special
meeting made the following report on the
grievances presented by Mr.. H.. Fursten-
helm protesting against the acceptance OF
sight drafts for goods several DAYS previous
to the receipt Of the goods, and against the
buyer paying exchange on goods pur-
chased for Memphis delivery:
MEMPHIS, Tenn, August q, 1888.
To the President and Members of the Memphis
Merchants Exchanges;
GENTLEMEN-We, the undersigned COM
mittee appointed by you honorable body
to investigate certain mercantile grievances
as presented in general meeting August
18th, make the following recommended
tons: That an experienced man be APP
pointed by the Board OF Directors in
spector Of meats received at Memphis.
All purchases of meats should be subject to
inspection at the option OF the purchaser,
but if had shall be inspected within forty
eight hours of receipt of goods. Decision
Of inspector shall be considered final, as
between buyer and seller. Inspection fees
shall be two dollars and a half per car
load, to I've paid by purchasers. It is the
opinion Of the committee that in all cases
where goods are sold at a stated price for
Memphis delivery it is not obligatory on
the part Of the purchaser to pay ex-
change. Respectfully submitted,

haviOr. = --.-r o. r-- -t-
MoIlie Blair, alias MOsby, colored, or
rice rersd, was up again yesterday, charged
with being Gisorderfy and disturbing the
public peace. Mollie's name has figured
on the dOckets of nearly every magistrate
liz the county either as defendant or pros
ecutrix in some dirty case, and she has be-
come so enthusiastic in her pursuit OF the
ends OF the law that she could not spare the
time Yesterday morning to hear what eight
witnesses had to say about her, and
through her attorney, submitted her case.
The Court accepted the proposition, and
very promptly fined her fifty dollars.
Mollie metsthe sentence with a look Of
scorn and contempt that would have o
the envy of the Crushed tragedian." The
Court wilted under its influence to the ex-
tent that half the fine was RENTED during
good behavior. 1t was only a day or two
ago when this same woman was let OH
from a t~wo-dollar fine because OF her two
little children brought into court to ex-
cite to action his hOnor's fountains of SYM
pathy. Annie Dunn, also colored, and a
partner in sin Of Mollie's, was treated to a
similar dose, rebate and all.
