Formation of a Syndicate to
Control the Price of Cot
ton Seed Oil.

A special from st. Louis says: Some
two or more years ago j. V. Lewis, an
extensive manufacturer Of cotton seed
oil, of Cincinnati. conceived the idea OF
forming pool intended to control the
price of the commodity, and has since
that time been quietly but zealOusly at
work. with several other large manufac-
turers, to put into execution his plan.
Il is now stated that his efforts have sue
ceeded, and that there has been formed
cOrpOratiin known as the Cotton OIL
Trust company. which controls every de-
sirable mill west of the Mississippi river
and 60 per cent Of the mills OF the en-
tire country. The capt. Il of the country
is placed at $2O,OOO,OOO Of which about
100000 has been issued to the mills
bought by the pools. The plan OF the
procedure is az follows II the officers
of the company decide that certain
factory should be subject to pool control,
the owner is approached and invited to
sell his property. II it is unincunbered
and in good working order he is given
certificates to the amount of three times
the value of his mill. For less valuable
property. less is paid. If the mill thus
bought can be operated with profit, the
trust company places it in the hands Of
a superintendent f its own. and takes
possession of its property. From that
time the mill is run as the best interests
of the company dictate, the output being
regulated by the current price of the
cotton-seed products. Instead of encoun-
tering opposition from the mill owners
the pool has been besieged by applica-
tions for admiss on to the syndicate and
it now finds itself an almost complete
master OF the situation.

Modern Surgery.

John Driscoll Of Cory, sometime since
lost an eye by a cows horn penetrating
it accidentally. His other eye had also
been blind for many years. A few weeks
ago Mr.. Driscoll consulted DR.. Carey. who
performed an operation on the organ by
which an artificial pupil was substituted
thereby restoring the sight. The opera
ton was performed by opening the eye
ball and taking out portion Of the iris,
thereby making an artificial pupil.
Mr.. DriscOll, who was in the city to-day
stated that his sight was fully restored
to the injured eye.

Dromios at the Capital.

A Washington correspondent writes
There are six pairs Of drOmios in WASH
ington this winter, and the curious mis-
takes which are daily occurring are the
gossip of society and the hotels. Tom
Reed, the leader of the republican side
of the house. has cOunternart in the
leading photographer Of Washington, and
the joke is that the general air and voice
of the two are precisely alike. The other
night Stanley Matthews and a fellow
Congressman Of Reeds saw this photo
grapher at the theater and took him for
Reed. They went over to him and ad-
dressed him, but he knew nothing Of the
subjects OH which they asked to be posted
and it was some time before they dis
covered that they were interviewing the
wrong man. Two other drOmiOs are

flying "trip TO Richmond, was seen yes-
terday by representative of the AP-
PEAL, TO whom lie expressed himself
SIS v, ry much pleased with tie result
Of his trip.
"Did you fud the gentlemen very
badly ( ightened by tue preparations
which Gen. Nettleton is making ?"
was asked.
"Not a bit of it," Col Patterson
smilingly replied. "Their instruc ions
are to push the work of construction
as rapidly IS possible, emitting moth
ing aud going nothing because of the
opposition; in other words, to build
the read as fast as men and money
eau do it, regardless OF what the Kan
sas City people are doing or threaten
to do. One OF them let fall very
shrewd remark, which impressed me
at the time. Said he: If the Kansas
City Company, with all lis knowl-
edge and wisdom, is building to
Birmingham, think that having so
good a start in that direction we have
q good thing to hold on to-" And he
meant what he said. They are all that
way. The Kansas City people may
build or they may not. But you may
put it down as an assured f,ct that,
tIade or no trade, the Memphis, Biz

Moro InEeIioity In the Family OF
oliver Racine.

A short time since young man
named Oliver Racine, who resides on
Avery street, figured as the hero in a
rather sensational story told by pretty
Mrs. Panther, the wife OF street car
driver. She had separated from her
husband aud was living in the house
with X clne's family, but concluded
10 leave. aud acco,dii < TO her story
would have been killed by Rscjne

him, except for his wife. Up to that
time they had been fast friends, sitting
together for a Photograph, and giving
other evidences OF an affection which
might have been pla'onic and might

for Texas saved Racine, aud his neigh
bofhcod hss been serene until The
pas day or two. From all that ca1 be
gathered II app arJ that he made q
flyiog tiip to Little Rock ehqrt time
ago, end when he returned his servant

having seen a lodger named Mendle
in Mrs. Raeine's bedroom. He ques-
toned her about il and the air was
filled with vocal sparks for while.
She said at last that there was some
foundation f)r the cooks story, hut
as everated her own innocence. That
awful man, she said, had forced his
way into her beiroom end remained
there sJme time in spite OF her pro-
tests. Racine took bis wife at her
word and bwore out warrant against
Mendle for rape, but at asst accounts
was making an effort to withdraw IL.

ATTEMPT At FUSION.
THE WORK OF A SELF.APPONTED
COMMITTEE.
Some SpeculatiOns As to the Causes
Which Led to It-Unsuccess-
full Venture.

Bigh' and early yesterday morn
irg a trio OF citizens calling them
s-lves committee gallopsd about
from Plnc1 to Fort p ckering trying to
get up what they were pleased TO call
a Fusion Ticket. They called upon
several citizens, p)ked them mystic
iiously in the rits, wound their fin
gers in their but onholes, got their
hooks in by degrees aud hsuled them
out Of earshot Of the madding crowd,
while they poured into their ears a
sweet story OF combination, RECALLED
them with r,ssate visions OF big offices
and fat fees, and then backed off on
both wheels - seek other ports or
the discharge OF their cargo Of saw
dust.
ONLY AN INRLING.
Credit must be given them for q
great deal OF address, as tbs most
searching inquiry failed tD disc over
but one man 10 whom the COM
mittee" had untos amed tself. They
laid a great deal Il st 'ess IN the idea
that the ticket is to be non partisan.
The inquiryN, naturally arises, by
whom were they appointed, and who
will be willingto respect their man
date when il Is given out2 There
are several answers which might be
made TO such question.
THE REPUBIIeANs WEAVING.
But the most reasonable solution is
that the movement was SIT on lot by
the II publicans. They are discour-
aged, their forces badly scattered,
Federal pa ronage gone, the masses at
war with the bosses, and general con-
fusion reigning. Certain of defeat
without some outside aid, it seems
Datural tina. they would make up
the minds to accept half loaf
rathetthan attempt TO get the whole
and miss II all. They do not seem to
underst md that the same conditions
do not e&iA now as in 1878, aud at
any so.Called FLU sion ticket will be at
once branded as Republican from bot
tom to top.
CAN'T DELIvER THR GooDs.I
Takirga gepsfal view OF the field,
the idea Of fusion ticket is about as
clear and harmeiiious ~ the IL lola
puzzle. The white and colo,ed wings
of the Republican, party no longer
flop with one accord for the support
OF the bird. The various subdivisions
Into which the workingmen are d.
videi represented nearly as many
candidates. Tney are GOT In harmony,
and the masses don't care fig
whether hjicklayer, a carpenter OF
timer is put on ticket, so long as
good men are put up to vote for.
NO OCCASION FOR FUSION
amid all the noise and smoke which
few oillce-hunters are making to try
and hide weakness under an appear
ance Of strength At present the com
munity, Democratic community, has
nothing to complain OF. The man,
ayers OF the party have so far displayed
admirable tact, and II they have done
anything likely to cause popular oppo-
sition they have done II in the dark.
The convention has not yet put out
its candidates They promise to nom
mate the best men to be found. Until
they do otherwise, there does not seem
20 be any meet s;ity for au independent
or iUs'on ticket.

New YoRK, June 23.-There was
conservation among the bucket
SHOPS today. The fiat Of the Stock
Exchange went forth that the bust.

bucket shops must cease. The indi'
Gators were removed from over a
dozen bucket SHOPS in Philadelphia
and from several in this city. The
war has been In earGest and the ex-
changes have determined to leave
nothing undOne TO break up the ser

that there are twenty-five to thirty
bucket shops in this city which secure
their quotations surreptitiously by
tapping the regular quotation wires.
A number of these concerns hold in.

their "iickers." 1t is asserted that
there is company in this city which
