Proposed Scheme for the Benefit
of Cotton Planters.

COLUMBIA. S. c., Aug. 21.-A scheme,
the main object of which is to save the
present stock of cotton from being sacri-
feed, has been formulated and is to be
at once pushed through all cotton-grow-
ing districts. The scheme was origin
ated by farmer-E. NJ. Stoeber-and
will be put into active operation
by the Alliance. which has already
approved it. The scheme proposes
that rtust companies with a capital of
from $4,000 to $4,000 each shall be
formed in every county in the cotton
belt. These companies shall receive
subscription, One-third of the cotton
crop of members. So firmly are these
trust companies to be bound that cotton
thus placed in their trust can positively
not be touched for year. At the eX-
piration of that time the companies will
be dissolved and the cotton held in trust
be returned to its owners. By this
means it is calculated to hold the cotton
supply for this year down to about
6.500,O00 bales, and consequently bring
the price up to about ten cents per
pound, instead of six cents, as Is the
present average.

as to how he felt, said that he had noG
slept and had been in pain all night.
The complaint of murder, which was in
the customary form,w was signed by Ma.
Frost, and was read to Almy as he lay on
his cot. When asked to plead, he heSi-
tated and said: 81 don't know what to
do" Attorney General Barnard then
suggested that it was always safe to
plead mot guilty." and in that way his
plea stands recorded. He waived ex-
animation and was committed without
bail.
1t was learned from the prisoner that
the pain of which he complained was
more from the apples which he had so
rravenously ate, and which tempted him
from his hiding place in Warden's barn
Wednesday night, than from his
wounds. Although he did not sleep he
was apparently much rested, was shaved
early and looked bright. Attempts
were made in vain yesterday to take
Almy's photograph. The light was poor,
and the picture was not good. To-day
the sheriff told him that better must
be had. The prisoner called for look
ing glass. collar and necktie, and took
considerable interest in arranging his
moustache and fixing himself up in the
best possible shape.
The scenes in Hanover this morning
were similar to those of yesterday after+
noon, after Almy had been brought to
the Wheel0ck house. At an early
hour teams commenced to pour in from
the surrounding towns, and soon filled
the space in front of the hotel on Main
and WheelOck streets. The sidewalks
were lined with people and everybody
was discussing the tragedy and the
capture and expressing great desire
to see the man in the hotel who is be-
ing so attentively cared for. 1t soon
became apparent that some thing must
be done to quickly inform the neigh
boring towns that Almy could not be
seen to-day. kilograms were accord
ingly sent to surrounding towns that
it is useless to come to Hanover eX-
pecting to see Almy, as the officials
will not allow him to be seen. The
upper story. 1t is not likely that the
prisoner will be taken to the county
Jail, because of insecurity and lack Of
accommodations for the man. =
In further talk with Almy to-day he
emphasizes his desire that the people,
shall not rank him with common MUIR
derers. He says: Il know [ committed !
brutal murder; nevertheless, am not
a brute, paradoXical though that state
ment may appear. l don't desire any
pity, and ought to suffer fer my crime. !

James Mcfarland, the great Denver

JAMESTOWN, n. D., Aug. 21.-To-day
has been lively one in state prOhibi-
ton matters. and the result of the two
cold water conventions held here is the
realization that the Republican machine
cannot longer run the Prohibitionists of
North Dakota. Last night and to-day
the leading active Prohibitionists of the
Republican party have been earnestly
laboring to convince their national
party brethren that their political Or
ganiZation is useless. Leading Repub-
licans like Congressman johnson,
Charles Pollock, George Goodwin, O.W.
Francis, j NJ. Adams and others have
to-day labored with the straight-outs in
vain. A preliminary conference of the
Prohibition factions developed split of
marked proportions. The promises of
Republicans to maintain the law were
regarded with little confidence by Chair
man Dickie, of New York, and others.
He was sustained by Walter Muir, state
president of the State Alliance, who
showed the infidelity of the last Re-
publican legislature in passing a resub-
mission bill and all but repeating the
penalty clauses of the prohibitOry law,
something only prevented by opponents
of capital removal. Editor Foss, of the
Grand Forks Normanden, was opposed
to Republican rule and he stated that
he represented the Republican district
of many Scandinavians of the state.
Many are members of the Alliance, and
in his opinion wodld act with the
Alliance on Prohibition matters. The
PrOhibitiOnists completed the OrganiZ-
alton of their party by appointing the
following state central committee:
II. II. Mott Grafton; A ]. Carver, Leeds;
Walter Muri, Hunter; NJ. D. Williams James
town, Rev. G. H. Wartham, Steele; NJ. H.
Hon. r. B. Richardson, of Pembina.
In addition, the present chairman. E.
E. Saunders, was retained on the COM
mittee. No one who was not vouched
for as a deep-dyed Prohibitionist was
appointed. The committee was in
structed to call state convention next
March. Funds were provided by the
na tional committee for expenses. The
work of polling the Prohlbitionists of
the state will soon begin. The Repub-
lican enforcement league proceedings
were held in a different hall and lasted
several hours. An effort to pass reso-
luton protesting against the Prohibi-
ton party completely failed. The Pro-
hibitionistS Outnumbered the enforce
ment contingent and sat down hard
upon the proposition.

Hugh Campbell Wants Democrats
to Indorse Him.

Special to the Globe.
YANKToN, S. D., Aug. 21.-Hugh j.
Campbell, leader of the Independent
party of this state and a prominent SEN
atorial candidate last winter, says the
Independents must nominate candi-
date for congress to preserve the party
identity. The Independents are the re-
suit of a revolt from the Republican
party, and if they made no nomination
the result would be the old fight
of the Democrats with $4,000
votes against the Republicans with
$4,000 votes. An Endorsement of the
Democratic candidate could not convert
100 votes to that party and would re-
suit in nothing good to the Democrats,
but ruin the Independents. If the
Democrats make a nomination, there
will be three tickets in the field. The
Republican ticket will be elected, and
the Democrats will be responsible for
the result. The only way to defeat the
Republicans is for the Democrats to in
dorse the Independent nominee. 1t is
understood that Bartlett Tripp. the most
prominent Democrat in the state. will
decline to become a candidate for con-
gress because of his belief that with
three tickets in the field tue Republi-
can would win.

WALsENBURG, Col, Aug. 21.-The
famous bandit, Catello, was shot and
killed this morning at his home, near

Yocum, of Park county; Deputy Sher-
iff Tom Brewer, of this county, and
three others surrounded him and
he refused to surrender. He
is wanted in Park county for
the murder of two Swedes. The fight
lasted for three hours. The bandit
was we'll armed and had large supply
of ammunition. Every opportunity
was given him to surrender, but his
final answer was a shot from his re-
yolver. Deputy Yocum and Wilson are
both good shots, but the bandit was so
protected by rocks and trees that
it was three hours after the
first shot was fired before any
of the officers bullets took effect, al
though many of them grazed his body
whenever it was exposed. He fought
desperately, and, although he was sub
ject to attack from six quarters, he
fired so rapidly and with such accuracy
that it was impossible to close in on
him. The canon is infested with other

CHICAGO, Aug. 21.-Noble G. Butler,

company estate, spent most of to-day at
the concerns general Offices in the Home
insurance building. There he met
Nathan Morris, the complainants' attor-

company. The conference related to
arrangements for carrying on the busi-
ness under the altered condition of
things. Books were examined and a
detailed statements of gross as
sets was drawn off. It shows:
plants (estimated), S2.031, ,209; material,

OF the S1,S00,000 liabilities, 81, 600, 900
is in the form of promissory notes and
accepted drafts. The remaining $780,
900 is credited to open accounts. By
these figures the company has an excess
of nominal or gross assets of S2,274, 1853

the assets are thoroughly good and will

The total issue of stock was S3,000,-

to gain absolute control of the wheel

plants were leased or bought and some
of the former owners became stock
holders. New factories were built and

A COLUMN OF FIRE.
Thousands of Barrels of Oil Go Up
in Smoke.

PITTsBURG, AUG. 21.-The early re-
ports concerning the oil fire at McDon-
aid, Pa, were somewhat exaggerated.
The true statement of affairs is, how
ever, bad enough. The flames have, so
far, been confined within a radius of
fifty square yards. The air is almost
motionless, except for the huge whirl-
winds created by the intense heat. The
fire burned off the oil saver, from the
casing head, giving free vent to the
massive volume of oil, which. as it
gushes high in the air, is instantly trans
formed into a seething geyser of burn
ing oil. Four $50 barrel tanks, filled
with Oil, have also ignited and are burn
ing fiercely. The loss to the owners OF
the Cook we'll will be very heavy.
Already over 10000 barrels of oil have
been destroyed. The owners are pre-
pairing to pur the contents of 250-bar-
rel tank of water over the casing head.
hoping to smother the flames. Should
this plan fail tunnel will be excavated
several yards below the surface of the
ground, the casing cut and the flowing
oil shut in.
