PENSACOLA, FLA, April 1s.-It is very
probable that the strike in the mills and on
board the vessels OF the Southern States
Land and Timber Company, which was de-
clared off few days ago, will be resumed
next Wednesday morning. This strike was
originally in support of demands made by
the company's log men in Baldwin county,
Alabama. and was ordered off by the Flor
ida executive board of the Knights Of Labor
on the strength of representations
unreasonable. The log men have
now shown the Florida board that the
representations made TO the latter were
misleading and have secured a reconsidera-
ton of the matter. The result is a dele
gated authority to Pensacola and Millview
knights Co strike unless the demands shall
be complied with. The company has been
seen again with reference to the demands,
with which they absolutely refuse to COM
ply, saying they would shut down for
twelve months before they would give heed
to single one of them-

fected, but the enlistment of sympathy

the timber ships as well.
The demands Of the strikers are as fol-
lows: ]. That log sawyers shall receive
40 cents per thousand feet. 2 That
scalers of logs shall give TO each log man a
copy of the scale before the logs are re-
moved. g. That employees be allowed to
once month. g. That the company shall
not boycott any member on account Of the
strike, shall employ union labor only, and
reinstate employees discharged on account
of the strike
About 1000 men will be directly affected
by the strike. The company's Investments

HoMERvnLE HAPPENINGS.
A Very Curious Administration OF
Crops.

BONNEVILLE, April 1s.--J. ID. Ellis. a
turpentine operator living near this place,
is the owner of quite curiosity-an animal
which seems to be half bear and half hog.
The animal is three months old, and
weighs about twenty-five pounds. 1t has
hoofs, nose and eyes like hog, but it is
covered with hair exactly like bear. It Is
perfectly gentle, and it will eat anything,
often standing erect on its hind legs to
walk. 1t has perfect set Of bear teeth,
and makes a noise which sounds like
the grunting of young cub.
Mr.. Ellis proposes to place the animal on
exhibition. A SOW owned by Mr.. Steedly,
who lives near the Okefinokee swamp,
brought up two Of the curiosities--a male
and female. The female has since died.
Farmers through this section generally
have a good stand Of corn. Cotton, owing
TO the continuous dry weather, is not coming
up well. The oat crop has come out won
derfully, and many think there viii yet be
pretty fair yield.

AGAINST BUTTHRwoRTR's BILL
A Vigorous Argument by New York
Cotton Brokers.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-President Hentz
of the New York Cotton Exchange and
delegation Of cotton brokers interviewed
two score of the leading men of the House
on both sides, including especially those IN
tho delegations from Georgia, Florida, South
Carolina and the other cotton growing
states in opposition to the Butterworth bill
to restrict if not destroy dealings in futures.
They pointed out sato the congress-
men that inasmuch as the production and
distribution of cotton in the United States
depended on futures the passage of the bill
would disarrange, if it did not disrupt, the
cotton raising and cotton selling system of
the country, and so produce loss to the
cotton growers as well as the cotton dealers
of the country. Their arguments made
such an impression upon the congressman
that it is now probable that the bill will not
