A DROP IN COFFEE.
Sharp Speculation and Panic In this Brazil
Berries.

Sharp Speculation and Panic In this Brazil
Berries.
NEW YORK, June 25.-The speculation
in Brazil coffee in the New York Exchange
this morning was of a semi-panicky char
scter The early cables from Havre and
Hamburg reported the most marked de-
cline, though the recent bearish temper,
all ports were anxious to sell. Large
blocks of coffee were blown on the market
at steadily yielding prices to point at
which they could be marketed. The
longs lost all hope and got rid of their
holdings at the best prices offered. The
short side, which was grown in importance
latterly, was jubilant and increased their
interest that way, although some parties
were contented in taking in full profits on
the break. The "irst call" lasted fully
twenty-five minutes, at which there were
fully 40, 600 bags sold and decline of 80
to 80 points, with very irregular feeling

Gambling and Agricultural Fairs.
[KinStOn Free Press.

The Free Press is glad to see that
very determined stand against the
licensing of gambling at agricultural
fairs is being taken by many of the
leading papers of the State. The fol-
lowing from the Henderson GOLD
LEAF is a sample of the determined
stand that a number of the best State
papers are taking:
"For one the GOLD LEAF will not
lend its influence to any fair in the
future that does not advertise mo
gambling allowed And then if we
find that the people have been deceived
we will denounce the fraud and hold
the officials up to public scorn and
contempt"
The Free Press takes its stand
along with the GOLD LEAF and other
papers, and will make no mention OF
any fair that does not advertise I" No
gambling allowed" We hope that all
papers that feel the interest Of the peo-
pie at heart will join in the denuncia-
ton of such licensed thieving at agri-
cultural fairs, whose ostensible object
is the benefit Of the people who are
robbed.
