"Tho increase OF the vote in 1884, as
compared with 1850, was marked and
conspicuous. The vote of 1883 will
probably reach 100000 or 100000. The
principal increase will undoubtedly be
in the South. Georgia, for example,
gave but l6S votes for st. John, because,
virtually, there was no Prohibition
party in that State in 1884. Its vote this
wear for the Prohibition candidate will
hardly fall below 1000, and may reach
5000 or even 5000"

JUTE BAGGING STILL FIRM.
st. Louis Manufacturer Says the
Trust is on Its Last Legs.

A st. Louis Manufacturer Says the
Trust is on Its Last Legs.
"What is this talk about that the jute
bagging trust is about to go underf" lead
ing cotton factor was asked yesterday.
"Theie's nothing in it," was the reply.
1.-THE prices are still firm, with no evidence
of decline"
The St. Louis Globe Democrat however
quotes Mr.. Douglass Murray, secretary of
the st. Louis Bagging Company, as saying
"he thought if the planters had patience to
hold on sixty days they could get all the
bagging they need for considerably less
than the combine price, say cents"
I'VE have large quantity of jute," he
said, land there are large stocks in New
York so that there need be no difficulty in
manufacturing. We have a capacity of
1000 900 yards year, one-eleventh of the
amount required for 1000, 900 bale crop of
cotton, and we propose to start up full
force on Jan. l. The agreements under
which the various mills closed down will
then expire, and they will all be free to go
ahead"
"Will this agreement not be renewedr'
was asked.
"Not much" was the somewhat emphatic
reply; land l don't believe there will be
any attempt to run a combine or trust next
year. Our company would never have
gone into the agreement to close the mills if
it had been known that combine such as
has developed had been contemplated. The
situation at the time the agreement was
made was such as to make such thing pos
sible There was a heavy surplus left from
last years manufacture and the idea was
to get rid of this"
The Globe Democrat adds: 1.-THE state
ment that renewal of the agreement is all
but impossible is made with a full knowl-
edge of the condition of trade in general
The statement is made from several sources,
however, that the mills which had to be
purchased outright by the combine may be
used as the nucleus of a regularly organized
trust. At the same time it is admitted that
this will he very difficult of contamination,
as any movement of this kind will have the
opposition of the Boston mill, the second
largest mill in the country, and owned by
very wealthy COMPANY

SMALL INVESTMENT AND QUICK
RETURNS.
That 100000 Capital Prize

"That was the first time ever bucked at

Picayune representative on Wednesday last.
He was waiting at the Louisiana State
Lottery Office on st. Charles street for a
check for $1,000, which was being drawn
up as payment of part Of the second capital

Where do you reside, Mr.. Caseyp
queried the reporter.

ship carpenter; work for the Red River
Line; am New Orleans boy; was born in
the Third district and am just % years old"
said the young man in a confident tone
peculiar to one who feels an interest in what
he is talking of.
"Quite nice little sum for 81. When
did you buy the ticket and what number is
it," asked the Ficdytr,e man.
81 bought one-twentieth part of ticket
No. 49, 46 on Monday last and it is the
first lottery ticket ever bought"
"If may ask, sir to what use do you
intend putting your newly acquired fort
unep
~ intend to invest it in real estate and
continue working at my trade" said Mr..
Casey.
At this juncture In the conversation one
of the gentlemen came from behind the
counter and remarked TO Mr.. Casey:
Here is check for 5000 on the New
Orleans National Bank, Mr. Casey. Please
let me have your ticket"
The lucky little piece of paper numbered
70 ,946, was handed the clerk, and young
Casey received his $1,000 check. He took
it TO the bank, drew a small sum on it,
deposited the balance and walked out into

The Young and Popular Tragedian
Enthusiastically Received.
Downing as "Virginius" had no end of
applause last night. 1t was the first time
that he has been seen in the play here. The
lower part of the theater was well filed, and
the galleries were crowded No tragedian
plays before larger audiences in Savannah
than Downing ''Virginius" is beyond
doubt his growing character.
His conception of tae part differs
from that of most actors who have played
it. 1t is a pleadng conception, and seem
ingly what the author intended should be
given the character.
Mr.. Downing was enthusiastically re-
ceived. He was given a round OF applause
upon his appearance, and was more
than twice recalled at the end of every
act. He was strongly supported. Miss
Eugene Blair as Virginia" is not only
beautiful young lady but fine actress. Mr..
Harry Meredith as "Appius Claudius,n Mr.
Charles Herman as "Icilius," and Miss
Helen Tracy AS "Servia," gave Down
ing support stronger than most
actors have. Miss Tracy is well known
as leading lady Of talent, and play-goers
still remember her as the leading support of
John Mccullough.
The company throughout is an excep-
tionally strong one. At to-dav's matinee
.'Ingomar" will be played, with Downing as
"lngomar." and Miss Blair as "Parthenia,"
