yInGINIA'S PROSPERITY.
During the Past Six Years II Has Been
Phenomenal.

"N Notwithstanding the cry Of power
ty and hard times which is heard
whenever a political campaign is in
progress in our State, we think that
the census which will be taken in June
will disclose the fact that Virginia
has made great progress in many dl-
rections during the past six years,
and that her condition has very great
ly improved since the census of 1880
was taken. Her railroad mileage has
been increased fully thousand miles,
several large towns and one populous
city have taken the place OF corn and
wheat fields, and her iron production
has grown from less than thirty
thousand to more than two hundred
thousand tons annually, with Il pros
pect IF it reaching half a million tons
within less than five years.
In the matter of employment the
demand for labor in the western por
tion of the State has caused IA thin
ming out of the negro population of
the southside counties east of Lynch
burg. as is evident To those who have
travelled along the line of the Nor
folk and Western railroad. Formerly,
t nearly every station throughout
The black belt large numbers OF idle
negroes were to be seen congregated
about the depots, but change has
taken place during recent years, as
such idlere are no longer to be found.
They have been furnished with
profitable employment. very mary OF
them being now engaged in construc-
ing railroads, working in the mines
and ore beds of the mineral belt and
in performing other pnskilled work
in that portion of the State Indeed.
we and the Southside counties can't
very much longer supply the demand
which is constantly being made upon
them for laborers.
For several years to come railroad
construction will be continued in the
Blue Ridge and Allegheny sections of
our State, and the iron furnaces
which are now being constructed.
added to those which are contemplate d
will cause a still greater demand for
labor. Then, TOO. rs the new indus
trial centres which will spring up a
round the furnaces assume the pro
portions of towns and cities. a demand
will be created for house servants
which will be met by the eastern
counties, so thar on the whole one of
the first effects of Virginia's industrial
growth will be to relieve the eastern
counties of considerable portion of
their negro population. These are
some of the changes which will be full
ly disclosed by the census returns.
but there are others which will also
tend to show the progress which the
"Old State has made"

sick. They Refused TO Go Farther.

The Southern excursion of the Pan
American Congress was a fiasco of the
first water.
After a days delay the special train
went to Norfolk, but there was but
two delegates on board Mt the time
and about forty deadhead passengers
1t was expected that at Richmond
they would be joined by the remand
er of the members, but these latter
gentlemen did not appear.
Instead there came dispatch sign
ed by james Gilispie Blaine, secre
tary of State, to the effect that the
train had better come back to Wash
ington.
This was done because so few of
the delegates desired to make the
excursion Thirteen of the foreign
delegtes accepted the invitation, but
only two of them. Drs Marines Silva,
of columbia, and Dr. Zegarra of
Peru, left Washington with the party.
The others sent letters Of regret CIV
ing various reasons for withdrawing
their acceptance; some were detained,
by Important business, some were
called TO New York by telegraph and
thus had started to sail at once for
their home, and the rest were i'll or
too tired to make the journey. Sew
eraI promised to join the excursion at
Richmond, but were unable to do so
and the Secretary of State decided
that the number of those going would
not justify the expense of the journey
which would cost as much as the
entire conference The whole outlay
would probably have been ten thous.
aud dollars.
1t has been whispered about town
several days that the proposed excur-
sion would turn out farce, and when
n meeting of several distinguished
citizens and members Of the Chamber
OF commerce was called, il was unani-
mously decided that no preparations
for the entertainment OF the foreigner
would be made This meeting was not
reported in the TINES or any of the
local papers, because it was not kown
positively whether or not the South
ern excursion would be made.
Yesterday morning acting-M Mayor,
Evans, received the following dis
patch from VIM. E Curtis, the Secre-
of the Conference:
'The secretary of the State directs
me to express his regret that the
Southern excursion of the Inter-Na.
tional Conference had to lie abandon
ed, but there would have been only
one foreign delegate after leaving
Richmond. and there was II great un-
certainty whether others would join
later. He thanks you sincerely for

funeral.

The South Salem Land company
have purchased 319 acres of very me
land lust south OF the Roanoke river
The land comprises what is known az
the "Col. jack farm, and is most de-
sirably located. 1t is bounded by the
property Of the Riverside company,
the Salem Development company,
and the Salem Improvement colnpa-
ny, and is only $50 yards from the
furnace. A handsome and durable
iron bridge is to be constructed across
the Roanoke river, and the property
will thus be connected with that OF
all the other companies.
Two hundred and eighteen acres OF
the property is the finest plateau iano'

How Seemingly Small Theft Put the

Wesley Briggs, q drayman. and

grand jury Monday by Justice How

trunk check Mt the Union Depot. Ii
seems Briggs presented the check at

it was easy enough to duplicate his
check
On being brought before the Mayor

check and sent him after the trunk.

CARNEGIE CITY.
L, Was q Big Sale Attended by Big
Crowd.

Yesterday was Carnegie day and a
big day it was Big Spring is no more
it is now Carnegie City. The train
which left here for the West at s a.
III. was crowded from engine to sleeper
with capitalists, real estate agents and
others bound for the big lot sale at
Carnegie City. The ten o'clock train
also carried a great crowd. The trains
from the West unloaded several car
loads of human freight at Big Spring
and by II o'clock there were not less
than five hundred people on the
grounds, and the trading and traf
ficing that was INDUCED in was simply
immense.
Until the Pittsburg development COM
pany announced its price lists on lot
the trading was confined to Carneglt
stock and it varied in price from 81. 81
to So premium.
after the sale of lots the stock was
very firm at So to SO so premium, and
some sales were made at 81.
This morning it will be difficult to
buy it at So premium. Among the
bidders on the lots were capitalists
from all the principal cities in Vir
ginia and from a number of Northern
States. All the lots offered were read
lily taken at the list prices, and where
more than one person had listed the
same lot, it was disposed of at auc
ton.
All the lots in the business portion
of the city were listed by several buy
ers and hence all had to come under
the auctioneer's hammer. The bid
ding was lively and every lot brought
more than the list price, the highest
being knocked out at $3.50. The ag
gregate sales were $156,000, which
sales place Carnegie among the most
successful of the booming towns.
This immense sale will enable the
Pitssburg Development company tc
declare sufficient dividend to pay
up in full the stock held by the
ground floor men and leave a hand
some sum in the treasury for the i'm
provement and development of the
400 acres of land still held by the
company.
