TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER.

The amount of cotton being taken to
Cuero is not so heavy as last year for the
same period. The fall in price aud the
TACT that the bolls are opening so fast as
to necessItate prompt picking, will ae-
count in part for the short receipts.
The Post Mirror of Pilot Point says;
Crops are nearer a failure in this vicinity
than ever before. Corn will average
about five bushels per acre and cotton
about $50 pounds per acre, while wheat
and oats were an entire failure.
Bell county cotton is very good and is
being rapidly gathered.
Cotton in Lavacca is not yielding as
well as last year.
Corn Averages very low in Denton
county this year. Cotton is being mark
eted rapidly. at least half the bolls are
open.
A few weeks ago the sanguine in Mo
Lehman county expected a bale of cotton
10 the acre. Now it is believed that one
third OF bale is about the best that any
cotton will do, and some will even fall
short C that, as the worms have done
great damage.
Good rains have fallen in the country
around San Felipe and fall gardening Is
being attended to. Cotton is being
marketed as fast as 1t can be gathered
and ginned. On the uplauds the crops
are light and will all be picked by Octo-
Der 10, but good i'll the bottom.
The peach crop in Erath county was
not killed by the late cold, and the peach
trees there are loaded with fruit.
Fine rains set in around Corpus Christi
Ia Ia Of
deners are hustling US usual preparing
for their fall crops.
At last Jack county has gotten a good
ram, aud farmers and stockmen have
broad smile on their faces and it is
thought cotton will yet make a half
crop, provided frost is late.
The cold snap which played havoc with
the fruit the last days of February
had also bad effect on the pecan. The
crop will be decidedly short thi. fall.
ELGIN, Sept. Cotton is coming in
very laggardly; fully two-thirds will lie
put on the market this month. Only
about one-third crop will be made here.
SHERMAN, Sept. This section of
Grayson county had a copious RAIN this
afternoon, and everybody is happy in
consequence.
CoLLINsvILLE. Sept Cotton is COM
ing at the rate of thirty or forty bales a
day, and as the fields are "white to the
harvest" the daily receipts are likely to
increase considerably
MEXIA, Sept. 6.-Seventeen hundred
and forty-fve bales of cotton have been
received to date.
ENNIS, Sept. Cotton pickers are in
demand here. The number of bales
sold to-day was $50. Corn sold in the
street to-day at 70@75c. !
BELToN, Sept. THE cotton is open
ing rapidly and is beng brought into
market at the rate of 300 bales per day.
Receipts to date are 1922 bales.

TEXAS MILLS AND FACT DRIES.

The first product of Galveston's new
cotton ind wooden mills was turned out
last week. This is q new and splendid
enterprise for South Texas and more of
them will certainly follow.
There is a good deal of strong talk at
present of the cotton seed oil mill at
BRENNAN being removed to Temple. The
mill has not been in operation for some
time, and it is very likely that such
change will be made.
FoRSEY, Sept. 7.-Our three gins,
though running day and night are
crowded beyond their capacity. Water
is getting scarce, one of the gins having
TO haul water now. Others are likely to
have to do SO also if the drouth continues.
ENNIS. Sept. 6.-The cotton gins here
are kept running night and day and the
congresses are busy all the time.

The Outcome of the Tabash's Trouble
With the Chicago and Erie.
The managers Of the Chicago and Erie have
notified the Wabash that they viii not allow the
latter to use the Chicago and Atlantic tracks
from Laketon to Chicago. In regard to the
move Attorney Crawford Of the Canadian Pacific
said: 1--WE connect at Detroit with the Wabash,
which runs from Chicago over the Chicago and
Erie tracks Laketou Junction. If the Wabash
can t use the Chicago aud Erie tracks it would
have TO make deal with some other road for an
eastern outlet. or carry the freight over its own
tracks via Belmont. making an Eastern route
800 miles longer than that formed by the Chi
cGEo and Erie. But our friends, the enemy. are
growing already too soon. We have t0reseen
this move and are prepared for il. We will Sc
cure a temporary injunction against the Chicago
and Erie $ attempt 90 close its tracks TO the
Wabash. Meantime the wabash has only 10
huild loo miles more Of its short line to Butler,
Ind, and 1t VIII have line eighty miles shorter
than the presen. one. Wabash tracks are being
laid on the Butler cutoff at the rate of three
uileS day, and will be in running order in less
than six weeks and perhaps month. The Chi
cage and EEie move will not bother US a parti-

Mckee struck out following thsm; at the farm

The cattle movement over the Missouri. Kan
sas and Texas via the Fort Worth and Denver
from the Panhandle, and portions of the India II
Territory has been quite heavy during the past
week, there being 40 carloads moved over that
route Saturday. This movement has been
brought about by the belief that the cattle from
the reservations of the blanket Indians would
have to be out of the Territory by October !.
but now the time 10 vaCate has been ex-
tended to December l there is no doubt that the
cattle business of this route will be materially
reduced. A livestock agent of one of the
heaviest cattle hauling roads in the country,
speaking OF this matter to a GAZETTE re-
porter last night, and his opinion is in accord
with the above
Il am not sorry that it will be so, either"
he said ''for the reason that il the cattle ship
MCnts should continue they have for weeks
past it would be bad thing for shippers. We
livestock agents always like to hear of stock
men getting good prices and we know they
could not do so if the order to vacate the Indian
country by October had been insisted on by
the president. Railroads viii lose nothing Uy
the Stacking up OF business, for they will haul
the cattle in the end, and the cattlemen will be

TEXAS PROGRESS.

The two new hotels at Arkansas Pass are
both closed up and will soon be ready for
the entertainment Of a vast number of
winter visitors who will visit the place.
AT Rancho, Gonzales county, there are
now five flowing wells, one of which
forces the water TO a height of twenty
two feet above the surface of the earth.
There is IN course of erection in the fair
grounds Of Dallas magnificent building
capable of comfortably seating thou
SANDS, to be used as a music hall.
Halletsville is to have a complete sys-
tenn OF waterworks. Sealed bids are
called for.
The city council of Henrietta have
accepted the proposition of company to
put in waterworks plant at an annual
rental with the reserved option of pur-
chase. Electric lights are also to be put
in by the same company.
The Arkansas Pass Beacon says: The
ice factory and cold storage of large
capacity is being pushed to completion By
those energetic enterprising citizens,
Aessrs. Mckay and Barlow. The work
is done In good style and in q substantial
manner, showing the firm belief of the
proprietors In the rapid growth and
permsnency OF our city. The splendid
and unexpected procurement of an I'M
limited supply of excellent water Is
astounding. They were sinking q reser-
Yoir for their ice factory, on the ridge in
front of the bay, and when they had
reached ten feet in depth they struck a
strong stream of good fresh water, which
soon rose six feet at which 1t continues to
stand. It is our opinion that il L. mex
or at least viii furnish all the
water required By the ice factory.
