with Tailor Suits.

With the severer tailor suits worn with a
masculine collar and cravat young ladies
wear a high straw hat the color of the dress,
made Of rough straw, or else in IN open
braid that has no lining. The rim turns up
closely behind, and rolls also on the left side,
while the right side is straight, or in ex-
treme cases is fiattened low against the
head. The brim is bound with velvet, and a
narrow velvet band encircles the crown. A
ladder Of cross bows of ribbon may extend
up the back Of the crown, or else it may have
long, erect loops with a bunch Of long
stemmed blossoms, usually of very small
flowers.
For older ladies to wear with tailGr suits
the newest bonnets are Of rough, dark straw,
made small, yet very high in the crown, SO
that the extremely high bows Of last season
may be dispensed with, and instead a rosette
Of velvet ribbons is used. This large rosette
may be all Of one color, but Is moro often of
two or three colors, made with all the loops
OF each color massed together and forming a
third Of the rosette. Thus, on a black rough
straw bonnet there are cream, pale yellow,
and black loops in the r~osette; for n blue
dress, dark blue, dark red and cream white,
or else pale blue loops form the rosette;
with brown dresses are white, yellow, and
brown loops This trimming Is also seen on
the black tulle bonnets worn with dressY
black suits and is especially pretty when the

Misses and children's hats are very pref
tily trimmed. Leghorn straws are lined
with fine gauze ruchings and have large
falile bows. Quite as much care is be-
slowed on the "garnitures" of English straws,
straws in open work and coarse straws.
They also have the under part of tho brim
lined with ruchings Or plaitings, and often
the outside of the hats are covered with
s%hell-shaped lace fastened down here and
there under flowers or ribbon ~rossttes. If
the brim of the round hat is raised on one
side, a band of ribbon is taken across it and
fastened on the crown under a bow or a
bunch of flowers. Sometimes there are three
or four small bands OF faille arranged in
this way. They ara bordered IN either side

JACKSON.

A Protest from. President Bond
Commissioners.
Special to Commercial Herald.
JACKSON, June 5.-The railroad COM
mission recently reduced the passen-
ger tariff on the Vlcksburg & Meridian
railroad, which is a part Of the Queen
& Crescent system, from four to three
cents per mile. The V~icksburg &
Meridian road has been declared in
solvent by the federal court, and TO-
day Frank S. Bond, receiver Of the ".
s. M, and president Of the entire sys-
TEN, files with the commission a
lengthy argument protesting against
the proposed reduction from the net
earnings of the road. He says that
three cents per mile would not be what
the law allows-"a fair and just return
On the value Of the railroad, ETC."
In figuring the net earnings be
bases his calculation on the liability Of
the road and not its value. The stock
and mortgage exceed $4,000 per mile.
and its value is not more than 2 5000.
He states that the matter has been
submitted to judge R. A. Hill, of the
Federal court, who suggested that he
confer with the commission and report
to him for further instructions. The
commission, after mature reflection,
refuses to recall the order fixing the
rate 1T three cents per mile. The
records of the Federal court contains
an order to Receiver Bond to comply
with the commissions order, and at
the end Of three months report results
to the court. 1t seems a conflict be-
tween the court and commission is i'm.
minent. The Memphis and Tennessee
railroad has filed its passenger tariff
reducing the rate to three cents pei
mile.

The MemphIs crop Report.

MEMPHIS, June 5.-The cotton crop
reports for the Memphis district, which
embraces West Tennessee, North Mis-
sisslppi, North Arkansas, and North
Alabama, to be published tomorrow
by Messrs. Hill. Fontaine s. Co., will
say the weather in the main has been
favorably for cotton. This is espe-
cially true regarding Tennessee. From
Arkansas and Mississippi some COM
plant is made Of prolonged dry
weather, which has retarded the growth
of the young plant. In Alabama, how
ever, the reverse is reported, and sew
cral of our correspondents complain of
too wet weather. which has prevented
them from making crops. Good stands
are reported and the condition of the
cotton crop is on the whole promising
Where the weather has been favorable
planters report the crop clear and well
worked and with a favorable season
there is every promise Of more than
average yield OF cotton throughout the
district. Since June first generous
rains have fallen in many localities
where complaint had been heard OF
too dry weather, which adds to the
hopeful outlook.
The condition Of the corn crop il
only fair. II has suffered from drouth
in many sections, but not to any appre.
ciable extent, and with a propitlous
season the yield will be equal to last

Further News from Geronimo.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The depart
ment of State has received information
from the consul at Guaynos, Mexico,
that a band of renegade Apache In
dians, and thtir chief Geronimo, well
mounted and armed, continue their
murderous raid through the north
eastern portion of his district and a
number OF Mexicans and Americans
are reported as having been b%utchered.
Two engagements with Mexi-
can troops have occurred in the Mag
dsline district, in which the troops
were defeated. The American troops,
by order of Gen. Miles. are on the
trail, Papaga Indians, instead of Aps-
cheS, being employed as trsilers. The
vigorous measures adopted inspire
confidence among the people of Sonora,

German American National Bank, of
this city, convicted of making false
entries 10 the books of the bank, were
to-day sentenced to five years impris-
onment each, but the execution of sen.
tence was deferred for a time.

How ignorant, too, women seem to be

rDamaqefo for Injuries Received BY a
q child from a Mud Drum
New Orleans States.
A snit OF considerable impoItine3 to
the citizens Of New Orleans for the bet
ter part Of the past two days engaged
the attention Of the United States Cir
emit Court, Judge E. C. Billings presid-
ing. The case is J. J. Thomas ct 81
against John Ward. It is a suit for
damages in the amount Of $4,000.
The attorney for the plaintiff is Mr..
W. S. Benedict, who is pitted against a
legal tito composed of Messrs. Thomas
+. Semmes & Legendre and j. Ad
Rozier, who appear for the defense.
The question involved is whether a
business firm can unlawfully obstruct
the banquette with its goods with no
resultant damages accFuing through
accident or death to persons passing,
should they in any way contribute to
their own injury through coming in
contact with the obstruction; whereas
M. accident could possibly have occur
edif the obstruction had not been in
be way, and unlawfully for the pedes-
trian to come in contact with. The
facts of the case are that on the after
noon Of the 18th Of May, 1855,
Thomas four-year old boy, while in
charge of his sister, nine years of age,
in some way came in contact with a
"mud drum" eighteen feet long.
and occupying a portion Of tie
banquette in front of Wards foundry,
on Calliope street. The drum"
which was on two pieces of timber
across the gutter, was "scot;hed," tt
prevent it from rolling in the street or
on the baDquette. 1t had been there
for some time, and on the day men
toned, while the young girl was look
ing elsewhere, the little boy, through
some means, caused the "drum" to roll
over upon him, causing a compound
fracture of the thigh.
The defense is that it was negligence
on the part of parents to allow theiI
child to be on the street without being
in charge of a competent nurse; conse'
luently as the negligence of the parent
G9ntribut d to the &C ;ident, the plant f
should not recover damages.
The plaintiff claims that the streets
and %banquettes are free and open high
ways, and Instructions in either are
unlawful and in direct violation of the
city ordinances prohibiting such OBJ
structions to the free use Of the high.
ways, and the plaintiff should recover
for damages caused.
The court charged the jury that il
was for them to decide whether thu
sister was a competent nurse; If so
and her ~inattention at the time of thu
accident was not unreasonable, thu
plaintiff should recover. If, however
the girl was incompetent to care fol
the child, the accident occurred
through the "3ol tributory negligence
of the parents, and he cannot recover
The jury returned a verdict for tn
plaintiff John Thomas in the sum o
$500, and the minor child, VIM. 7
Thomas, in the sum of $1,000.
