CHICAGO REVIEW.
business i'm the Grain Center Dur
Ing Yesterdays Session.

CHICAGO, September 12.-The wheat
market was quite active, and attera tenn
pOrary weakness early in the session an
other decided bull turn was witnessed.
Fluctuations, as on the two previous
days, were within a moderate range, but
prices OF late appear to advance more
easily than they decline. The local crowd
got short a little wheat yesterday, and
there was more selling to-day when De-
Gem Der was around 7S3Ic, but the bears
realized that with stocks of contract
wheat so light they gave no leverage,
and they cover speedily on every sign of
substantial reactions. The opening fig
ures were about on a level with yester-
days clOSlngs to shade better. There
was a large volume of trade during the
last hour of the session in the local and
outside order account, with the bulk of
trading in December at 793sa79H. There
was firm close at a net gain for the day
OF I2c.,in all futures and Ha3sc. below the
extreme top.
A moderate business was reported in
corn in the carly part of the day, but as
the session advanced the market became
quiet and inactive. The feeling developed
was easier earlier and trading was at
lower prices, the local crowd being long
and the market opened weak at 1saAc.
below the closing prices of yesterday, and
under liberal offerings prices declined
Ha2sc Upon the decline better demand
sprung up, the crowd becoming short,
and tine market rallied Nc, ruled steady
and closed lsa12C. lower than yesterday.
Oats ruled weaker and prices a shade
lower. Trading was lighter and chiefly
for October and May.
An easier feeling prevailedin pork, with
moderate trading. October ruled 3Oa40,
and January 5a10c. lower, the market
closing tame at medium futures.
A moderate business was transacted in
lard. Near deliveries were easy withligh
trading, while longer deliveries were
steadier and prices wcrefavorabIe to sell
ers.
Little interest was manifested in short
ribs. Prices declined 1Oa13c. onnear and |
&C. on deferred deliveries, and the market
closed steady at medium figures.

THE EASTERN HANDICAP
Run In "a Binding Storm and Won
by Tournament.

New YORK, September 12.-The Concy
Island Jockey Club determined to hold
the races at Sheepshead Bay to-day, no
matter what the condition of the weather
was. The day was decidedly bad for
racing. The rain was so binding that
spectators could hardly see the start, and
only occasionally could they distinguish
the colors OF the Jockeys. The track was
letlock deep with mud. The event of the
day was the great eastern handicap, for
which twenty horses started. The lot
terry of racing was admirably exemplfed
in the result. Hearst's stable relied upon
the $40, 900 colt King Thomas, but he
was left at the post, and the race was
won by his stable companion Tourna-
ment, who was SO little thought of as a
winner that a stable boy rode him. He
started at odds Of eighty to one, but he
defeated Belmont's Representative and
Civil Service quite handily. Most of the
finishes were close. The crowd was
small.
First race-seven furlongs: Cartoon
won, Maidstone second, Cassius third
Time .33.
Second race-mile and furlong: Oars
man won, Swift second, Leila May third
Time POI.
Third race-mile: Badge won, Bess
second, Hindoo Craft third Time As.
Fourth race-great eastern handicap
for two years old-six furlongs: Tourn-
ament won, Lord Dalmeny second, Civil
Service third. Time LII. Mutuals paid
S4S.
Fifth race selling seven furlongs:
Gregory won, Prince Edward second,
Mary 7. third. Time 1.33.
Sixth race-mile and three furlongs on
turf: Belwood won, Burnside second,
Lotion third. Time .. .43.

GORDON AND 1.ONcsTREEr.
A Meeting Between the T-ieuten-
ants of Lee and Jackson.
From the Brunswick, Ca, Times.

From the Brunswick, Ca, Times.
Yesterday, while l was at the capitol
Governor Gordon came it.. In his mimi
table style he began greeting friends. In
the midst of it all another form came in
view; the hair was white, the beard of
the same hue. the eyes dim, the right arm
trembling NTH age and wounds.
why, general, said Gordon, II am
glad to see you"
And l." replied the other, lam glad to
see YOU"
Gordon and Longstreet!
They were standing hand clasped in
hand. Lees old war horse and Stone
wall Jackson's worthy successor stand
ing heart to heart; the old 1st and 2nd
corps once more side by side. No poll
tics there. No democracy, no rcpubli-
canism-only two soldiers. Their voices
sounded less distinct than usual-like the
soft murmer ofsummer seas. Tears, too,
cloudcd their vision.
Other eyes also grew dim, for those
two represented, in the most tragic hour,
the Wilderness and Lees army. 4. Back
again came the scene: The light of May
5, 1864, has passed, and from the clark
ling woods" came the sharp crack of the
skirmisher's rifle, groans dying prayers.
Each army waited tor the morrow.
Longstreet at Gordonsville, twenty
miles away; Hill hard pressed; Ewell
only holding his own 40, ,000grays, 1O0,-
900 blues; Longstreet not yet up.
What of the morrow:
Down the line of Hill and Ewclls
troops is heard the cry: Pass word
along that Longstreet is here!" From
the tangled depths of the Wilderness
mighty shout goes up, even the wounded
teebly answering back: "Longstreet is
heren' Grand old 1st army corps, brave
old Longstreet, we may differ in politics,
but Second Manassas is yours, the Viii
tlerness is yours, andhamid the gathering
gloom of life's fading years, we dare deal
you justice!

sun Cotton ReXIeNv.

NEW YORK, September 12.-Futurcs
exhibited struggling uncertain tone till
about the last hour, when the big re-
ceipts at ports discouraged some of the
buyers; and small movement to unload
caused a slight decline. The pressure on
September contracts is about over and
short interest" for October pretty well
covered. These months were conse-
quently exceptionally weak. Weather
reports from the South were generally
good; but there were advices of rust and
worms in some localities Cotton on
spot was more active, holders meeting
the demand more freely.

MORGANTON's SENSATIONS.
Three of the L.yncIAers Identified
and Arrested.

The StateSville Landmark of yesterday
contained the following additional in.
formation concerning the lynching OF
Stack and Boone at Morganton, Wed.
nesday morning:
The lallor, who was much outraged
by the transaction, swore to the identity
OF two or three of the lynchers, and these
were having a hearing when the train
coming east passed MOrganton yester-
day afternoon at 4.15. The body OF
Stack came down on the train, marked
to his counsel, Messrs. Covington &
Adams, of Monroe. That of Boone was
still lying under the water tank at the
depot and a crowd of colored women was
gathered at it.
At Willow Tree camp meeting, Quaker
Meadows township in Burke on the night
OF August 81, David Boone, colorcd, shot
and killed Eli Holder, white. Boone and
two other negroes had entered into a
conspiracy to kill one Copeland, white
man. One of the three furnished the
pistol, another the cartridges, and Boone
was to do the killing. As he fired Cope
land jumped behind Holder and the latter
received the ball and was killed. All
three OF the negroes were arrested and
put in jail and one of the others turned
States evidence on Boone.
Some twelve years ago, Hoke Secrest,
OF Union county, while passing through
Burke county on foot with his wife and
child, murdered them at a point not
more than three miles from where Parker
was assassinated. Ingenious counsel
saved his neck and the case cost Burke
about 81, 900. There has been much talk
since the killing of Parker and the arrest
of Stack to the effect that Burke has
paid out about enough money on ac-
count of Union murderers, and that this
one would go free like Secrest if left to
the courts, the juries and the lawyers.
1t is further said in justification of the act
of yesterday morning that though there
have been many murders there has not
been a hanging i'll Burke in thirty-hve
years"
Parker killed Stacks brother in Union
county, and not in Mccklenburg, as was
stated yesterday morning.
A special to the Charlotte Chronicle
touching the same says
Jailor Ward says he identified three
of the lynching party, and warrants have
been issued by Mayor Robertson. The
accused were: w. w. McGallaird, John
McGallaird and Steve Duckworth.
Two of the masked men, after the hang
ing, went back to the depot, and rousing
the telegraph operator made him wire
Superintendent McBee at Asheville, that
the men were hanging to the bridge, and
that he had best have them cut down
before train hit them. 1t is
reported that Boone confessed his guilt,
but that Stack protested hisinnocence to
the last"
The statement that Boone killed a |
farmer at the Tabernacle meeting row,
near Connolly Springs, was made upon
what afterwards, turned out to be in
accurate information furnished THE CITI- |
ZEN late Wednesday evening.

We are requested to call attention to
the change in the location of the Hominy
postofice which has been made by the new
appointee without reference to the rules
in such cases made and required. Thenew
office besides having been moved without
regard to forms, is also located so as to re-
duce the proportionate distance between
two contiguous Offices arranged to suit
the objects for which the two offices were
established, giving one set of neighbors
too much ot,the good thing, the other set
too little. As we have not the ear of the
powers that be, we can only regret the
trouble, and fear the complainants will
have to grin and bear it.

THE ENGI.IsEz STRIKERS.
Comparatively No Change in the
situation Developed.

LONDON, September 12.-The dock
companies have decided to adhere to the
offer made by them to raise the wages Of
their men on January |. After the con-
ference between the directors of the dock
companies and Cardinal Manning was
concluded, the latter informed Burns and
'rillett, leaders of the strike, that al
though the directors adhered to their
original offer to advance wages on Janu-
airy 1st, they were still open to further
negotiations. He had been charged by
the directors to tell them that if the
strikers had any other terms to suggest
it was for them to first agree among
themselves what the terms shall be. The
directors had nothing from the men at
present which they considered sufficiently
clear and explicit. If the leaders of the
strikers formulated final proposals and
presented them through Cardinal Man
ming, the directors would again consider
what course they would pursue in re-
sponse to the strikers demand.
The Pail Mall Gazette suggests that
an organization be formed for the pur-
pose of raising the 100000 necessary to
pay the dock laborers six pence per hour
from November l, to January 1. The
Gazette says that leading business man
of the city has offered to contribute e2,-
900 for this purpose on condition that
the remaining four-fifths be subscribed
Immediately. The 10000 which the
Gazette suggests should be raised by
subscription is the amount that the dock
companies claim they would lose by adj
vancing the wages on November 1, in
stead of January l.

COL. J. ID. CAMERON,
Commissioner to the American
Forestry Congress-.

Forestry Congress-.
We note with pleasure that Col ]. D.
Cameron, editor of THE CITIZEN, received
his appointment yesterday from Governor
Fowle as commissioner from this State to
the annual meeting of the American For
eStry Congress, to be held in Philadelphia
October 1913. In making this appoint
ment Governor Fowle has done honor to
himself and the State as well as to Col,
Cameron and the paper and section of
the State that he represents. Col. Cam
cron, from his long residence in the differ
ent sections of the State and the special
study that he has given her forests and
woods, is eminently qualified to fill the
position to which he has been assigned.
No man in the State probably has a larger
fund OF general information on this i'm
portant subject, to which far less atten-
tion has been given in North Carolina
than it deserves.
We trust that Col. Cameron's duties
will not prevent him attending this
meeting, as we feel sure that it will be
productive Of good to all concerned; to
those outside the State in bringing our
many valuable woods into notice, andto
our people at home in suggestions for the
better care Of our forests.
