A CORNER IN LARD.

The recent coffee corner In New York Is

though lard Is one OF the iayoric footballs
for those who mako business Of spUculai-

TAyING COTTON OIL.

Vigorous resolutions were passed ycslcr.
day by the Cotton and Merchants Tx
changes against the proposed law proyid-
ing for the taxation OF cotton seed oil
when mixed with lard, and for lis subjec.
ton TO inspection. We print this morn
ing an article from The Philadelphia Tne,
which conveys the information that GER
tain men interested In a lard corner are
backing the measure in orlcr 10 prevent
the delivery Of cotton oil lard. That cot.
ton oil is healthiul cannot be questioned
at this late day. The article has
now come 10 10 great com
mcrcial staple. Its manufacture gives en-.
ploymont TO thousands oimcn and millions
Of dollars Of capital l;s utilization has
added immensely TO the value Of the cot.
ton crop. 10 crush ont such an industry
would be n gioyous legislative error, and
10 do this for the benefit Of another indus
try would be crime. Tho tax is not
needed 10y the government, and can only
be looked upon as punitive. Certainly
no good reason can be Offered for
thus removing from the market a food

THE EXPOSITION.


The movement for the organization oil
IN industrial exposition TO be held in
Memphis in 1890 is taking definite shape.
Mr.. I. J. Graham, who has taken tho lead
in the promotion Of tho enterprise, has
brought TO his aid number OF the most
responsible business men OF Memphis,
who have promised cordial cooperation.
It was TUE APPEALS suggestion that
1889 be the date, but Mr.. Graham
is OF the opinion that the post
ponement OF the opening TO the next
year would, by giving more time, insure
grander affair. By that date Memphis
will have added many thousands to her
population and the exposition will Of itself
bo confirmation OF her commercial dignity
and supremacy in the southwest. Two
years should be ample time TO reach
splendid result. We have the experience
OF Philadelphia, New Orleans and Atlanta
by which TO be guided. That Memphis
should take the initiative in thus calling
the attention Of the world 10 the marvel
ously rich territory over which her queen
ship extends is entirely fitting. That this
should be as great a center Of manulactur-
ing MS 1t is Of trade goes without saying,
and such an exposition OF resources and Of
industries actual and possible is necessary
10 justify the claims we so confidently as
SORT But il is TO be understood that this
exposition is not TO DO an affair in any way
local TO Memphis. II is TO be compre-
hcnsiye in its scope and 10 adequately
represent all that wide and product
i've territory Of which she is the
natural cntrepot. The yitalizing effect Of
such an undertaking, successfully carried
out, viii be immense, and the material
good to come Of il will be incalculable.
The very fact that the serious proposal Of
the exposition has met with such favor is
an indication Of the general quickening
of commercial activity and the spirit Of
enterprise. Memphis does not propose to
boom herself by adyentitious articles or
by forcing land values or by mock auction
methods. No city In the South has grown
ut once 30 rapidly and 80 substantially,
and at the same time, so quietly. She eau
afford TO rely upon her deserts once they
are made known, and TO spread the knowl-
edge Of the iructiierous region she com
mands will be the aim OF the promoters OF
this exposition.

RepOrts nj New York.

New YORK, Jan. 30.-The fury OF tho
storms which began Thursday, and which
swept the railroads of northern and east
ern New York with snow, was not spent
until Saturday afternoon, but the railroads
up to that time completely at their mercy,
began vigorous light against the drifts,
which ended in complete victory. I'M
less more snow falls today, the blockade
of New York snow is ended. The New
York Central and Hudson River roads,
rs soon as the snow had ceased fall
ing, and the wind had stopped
blowing Saturday afternoon, ordered out
the army OF men TO clean the tracks, and
soon the road between New York AND
Albany was literally lined with men,
while the huge snow plows went plungins
through drifts in some places higher than
the caves OF the cars. Passengers who ar
rived Saturday night at 2 o'clock by tn,
"vestibule limited" from Chicago-and
they did finally arrive at the Grand Cen
trail station, though they were five hours
late-tell graphic and thrilling storie;
OF the appearance Of the tracks between
Albany and this city. In some placed
they said IL was like passing through q
marble-lined tunnel, the snow being piled
so high that the view out OF the car WIN.
dows was obstructed. After IL o'clock
Saturday night the Central was able 10 an.
nounce that IL would thereafter run pas.
senger trains upon schedule time. In the
superintendent's Office II was ascertained
yesterday that freights would be running
today upon schedule time.

THE BRIDGE AGAIN.

Memphis naturally looks with greater
reliance for the river bridge to be built
under the Phclan charter now in the
hands OF Senator Harris for its passage in
the Senate than TO the Ford, Van Ben
thuysen Company. Back of the Phelan
charter stand the railroads, urged by the
necessities OF their business TO build the
bridge. 1t is no speculative scheme with
them to make money out OF tolls. They
must have the bridge. Nobody doubts
either their ability or determination to
build il as soon as they are authorized by
Congress TO do 30. Tho same cannot be
said OF tho Ford, Van Benthuyscn Com
pany. II Is purely speculative scheme
with them. They are urged by no neces-
sity. They merely want TO make money
out Of 1t. 1t is not definitely known yet
whether their speculation contemplates
collecting tolls ovcra bona isle iron bridge
or whether II is simply their purpose by
juggling with Congress to continue II on
paper, as they have done for
no many years, until tho railroads
are forced 10 buy II from them.
II has been their habit for years TO boast
loud and make many sweet promises just
before and during each session OF Con.
grcss, only to relapse during adjournment
into very obnoxious desuctudc.
The Van Benthuyscn party appeared as
the new sponsors Of this old scheme just
on the eve OF the present Congress, and It
is said that they have ample means to
build the bridge. This may be 30. But
they are constrained by no necessity TO
build the bridge rs the railroads are, and,
even though they may presently desire
and intend TO build II, before the work is
done they may find more profitable invest
mont for their money in something else,
and certainly under such circumstances,
like every other set OF business men, they
would be quick TO abandon the bridge.
Either this, or they might DO diverted
from their work by change in the money
market, or change for any cause in their
expectation Of rich profit from the enter
prise Not 30 with the railroads. They
must have the bridge and will have it, II
Senator Harris will drop his little amend.
mcnt and secure the passage Of the
Phelan bill.

a French Explorer In south America.

From the ST. James Gazette.
The French geographical society has re-
ceiyed telegram from Nj. Joseph de
Brettcs, who has been intTusted with q
mission by the minister OF public instruc-
ton, informing il that he has recon-
menced his travels through the Chaco
and the central region Of South America.
Nj. dc Brettes started about q year ago
from France with the intention OF follow
ing up a journey which he had begun a
short time before, and OF passing
through the triangle in South America
which is bordered by civilized and
inhabited countries, such as Peru 10
the west, Chill TO the east, the Argentine
Republic, Uruguay Paraguay and Brazil.
business relations between these countries
are very difficult 10 maintain, as the center
OF this triangle is occupied by an immense
extent of territory which has never been
surveyed, and over which there arc no
routes or roads. This territory is called
the Chaco, and il subdivided into the
Northern, the Central and the Southern
Chaco, all three Of which are inhab-
tied by savage Indian tribes. Sew
cral efforts have been made TO
penetrate into tho two former by
water; and il will be remembered that DIR.
Crcvaux persisted three or four years ago
while following the course OF the Rio Pil-
comayo. Other travellers have reconnoi-
tered the course Of the Rio Vermejo; but
II is generally agreed that these two
streams are not nayinble in their entire
length, 40 VI. dc Brcttes Resolved 10 try
the land route through Southern Chaco.
His first journey was commenced in 1885,
when, going up the Panna river from
Bucnos Ayres rs fur rs Couicnties, he en-
deayored TO roach the town OF Candeiard,
upon the opposite coast. The distance
was 200 miles, and NJ. dc Brcttes
started with caravan consisting OF two
Indians and sixteen horses. When he
had got 200 miles inland ho came upon an
immense salt lake ll6 miles long, and
convinced himself that the land route was
practicable. But upon the fony-thrd
day Of his journey he was struck down by
fever and had " return 10 Corricntics.
Ills illness having left him almost without
resources, he determined to come home and
cndeayor TO interest the Geographical So-
ciety in the work. This he succeeded in
doing, and, though he Is only twenty-five,
he il now making his second expedition in
this uncNplored region.

government can afford to pay the
deficit. This the government can Ger.
tainly do. The people have never asked
that the cheapening Of postage or the cx-
tension Of postal facilities should depend
solely upon postal receipts. The resolu-
ton was introduced by Senator Beck, who
maintained that il was not scheme to de-
pleie the treasury, as had been charged.
II the chcapening OF postage had depended
upon postoilico receipts in the past the
of the country would have
been much retarded.
