TEE sourn,s GREAT STAPLE.
The National Cotton Exchange Meeting
Next Week

Next Week.
One week from to-day the National Cot
ton Exchange will meet at White Sui
phur Springs, Va. Savannah is entitled
to eight delegates. The following, beside
himself, we're appointed by President
Conner:
z. NJ. Green, J. r. Sheldon, r. D.
Bogart, J. b. West, John Fiannery, j. y.
Duckworth, j. j. Wilder.
IL ls animated that the question Of
branding ana inspecting cotton, which has
been az tated for some time on the New
ork Exchange, may be taken up and
settled. The New York Exchange is di-
Y'ded on the subject. A. it affects the
whole trade the matter may have to be
settled BY the national convention. Each
exchange has the privilege Of placing any
question which it desires discussed on
the calendar Of the national association.
such questions are given precedence, and
are the first taken up and disposed OF.
Asterw0rd member can bring up any
question.
The savannah Exchange has asked
that the subject Of ocean steamships laden
with cotton ana carrying part Of the
cargo on deck be discussed. The carry
ing Of deck load Of cotton, coal or any
thing is said 10 increase the danger to
life and property. The local exchange
suggests an appeal to Congress to enact
marine law requiring masters of vessels
to state under oath at the time of clear
ing whether any part of the cargo is
carried on deck. 1t Is also
suggested that records of the
same be kept at the custom
houses, where the public, and underwriters
especially, may have free access to them.
The question OF net and gross weights
which was so thoroughly discussed last
year will not likely be touched upon
The questions that have been placed on
the calender are known to Mr.. B. II.
Parker. Of New Orleans, the secretary of
the national association. What other
questions Will come up are not known.
The meagre reports from the cotton
crop the present indications are that it
Will be good one. An occasional com
plant is heard of too much rain in one
place or too little in another. In this sec
tion the rainfall has been rather heavy,
but the showers have been most frequent
along The coast. In the southwestern,
northern and interior parts Of the State
the plants are growing well under
favorable conditions. The cater
pillar has appeared in places along
the Chattahoochee river below Columbus.
Fortunately fewer rains have occurred in
that locality than in most places in the
cotton district, and If the present weather
continues awhile longer In that section
no great danger is feared from the worms.
The plants are reported to be growing
still. The fields are well kept, generally
the grass being kept well under. From
now until September ia the ticklish period
for the crop. Picking in this State is not
expected to begin for several weeks.

THE SHEPHERD MANSION SUIT.


A Decree In the Long Litigetcd Case
from which the Plaintiffs Attor-
neys Appeal.
Justice Hagner, in tho equity court
yesterday, signed decree in the case Of
Pepper VS.. Shepherd. The bill was fled
in July, 1881, for tho purpose of obtain.
ing a sale of the Shepherd house, situated
on tho corner Of Connecticut avenue and
X street, in this city, to satisfy two deeds
of trust held by Mr.. Pepper upon part
OF tho property, the property being
misdescribed in his deeds, the description
| not including n part of the back build
| ing. Mr.. Pepper had filed a similar bill
in 1873, in which it was claimed that he
was not injured by the misdoscription,
and that he was entitled TO have sold that
portion of the property which was COW
cred by his deeds. 1t was conceded in
that cause that the misdescription was
unintentional, and that Shepherd had
intended to include the entire property.
That suit resulted in decree under
which sale was made, and the portion
Of tho house and lot included in tho
deeds Of trust was bought in by aud
decided to Mr.. Pepper. Mr.. Shepherd
claimed that the decree was void, and
brought q suit to set aside the SALE
which was dismissed by tho court, be-
cause the sale and deed to Pepper were
invalid and in no wise affected Shop
herds title.
In the present suit Pepper claims that
he was greatly injured by the misdescrip-
tion, and asks that the deeds may be cor
rected, or that the whole property may
be sold and his claims be first paid out Of
the proceeds to tho exclusion Of Mrs.
GRAY, who holds second deed Of trust
upon the whole property. Shepherd set
up various defenses to tho relief prayed,
among others, that Pepper had elected in
his first suit to take the property covered
by his deeds, and could not now, against
Mrs. Gray or against him. claim to have
tho correction made, aud that ho was
barred from any relief in this cause by
tho first suit instituted, in which all
errors should have been corrected.
The property has boen in the hands of
a receiver for some time, and the rents
have been collected by him, the Chinese
and subsequently the Russian legations
being tho tenants. The court deereed q
sale of tho whole property, subjecting the
rear portion, omitted from Peppers deods,
FIRST to the payment of Mrs. Gray's claim,
and any surplus, together with tho pro-
ceeds of the sale of tho front portion of
the property to the satisfaction of Pepper g
claim, with a personal decree against
Shepherd for the deficiency.
From this decree the solicitors Of Shep-
herd-hessrs. A. G. Bradley, Mattingly,
and Totten-have appealed to the general
term. The complainants solicitors are
