More Elevators Needed.

There is a great lack of facilities for
handling grain at New Orleans. At the
Illinois Central depot in that city few
days ago there were 200 cars, while be-
tween the Southern Pacific, Texas and Pa
citic and Louisville and Nashville depots
there were 404 carloads, making total of
6O4 cars of grain. This state of affairs is
is attributable to a lack of elevator facili-
ties. Grain being stored at this season of
the year, and exposed, as some of it must
necessarily be, will cause a shrinkage IN
weight 1t is loss to the importer. 1t is
q loss to the railroad company, also, as fire.
Quently the arrangement is made that the
grain is to remain IN the cars free of charge
until delivered aboard ship. Some of this
grain las been in that city for fifteen days.
Lack of export facilities is also answerable
for the hold-over, there being mo steamships
in port to handle the cargoes out. A st.
Louis railroad official some time since pre-
dicted freight car famine because of the
inSufficiency of storage room for grain.
Just sucn features as the present one will
bear out his prediction. Six hundred and
four cars being stored with grain at one
time, in one city, early in the season, indi-
Gates that freight ears will be in demand
before the season has fairly begun. The
only solution of this evil seems to be for
the railroads to build their own elevators,
or build more cars than they can use eX-
cept ut certain seasons. They will hardly
do the latter, and will not do the former if
individual enterprise can be induced to
do so.

The Gazatte,s Schnol Girls

There's fun ahead The fight over The
GAzETTE's school girls will be on to day,
and the Santa F'e, the Katy and the Texas
and Pacific are in three cornered fight
over it. The announcement of President
Yancey that the girls must go over the Texas
and Pacific has aroused a storm, especially
when they had been contracted for the
Santa Fe, and this road had ordered the
special car and the decorations for it. The
Katy was also figuring on the business and
expected to get at least portion of the
business. The st. Louis rate of 81. 10 had
been cut by the Texas and Pacific to sl995
and this rate was promptly met by the
other lines. The Santa Fe people say they
are in it and that they propose to have the
business. The Katy offers a special chair
caSjsrthrough from Fort Worth to Mexico
without change for the exclusive use OF the
party, and some had already contracted for
tickets over this line. H. G. Thompson.

They Slashed Rates.

The sale of harvest excursion tickets yes
terday from Memphis to Texas, Arkansas
and Western points was the cause, or re-
suited rather. in a spirited and unexpected
slashing of rates, the parties INDUCING in
the cut being the Iron Mountain and the
Kansas City. Fort Scott and Memphis roads,
says the Memphis Commercial. The point
TO which the reduction in rates was made
was Guthrie, o. r. The authorized eXcur-
sion rate to that place from this city was
$50 81. but before the local ticket offices
closed tickets were being sold at Sl1.15. 1t
is hard to determine which road first made
the cut, but II. d. Wilson, ticket agent OF
the Iron Mountain, claimed that the reduc-
ton was started by the Kansas City. Fort
Scott and Memphis, and that that roads
first cut was TO $40 The excursions over
all the roads were well patronized, while
the number of colored people going to Okla
homa amounted almost 10 an exodus, a
party OF about 100 going from this city to
Guthrie alone.

Special to the Gazette.
PoTTsBoRo, GRAYsoN COUNTY, TEX,
Aug. 21.-The campmeeting at the arteslan
well is success in point of attendance,
5000 being present to-day 1t was hoped
joint debate would materialize between
Harry Tracy for and someone represent
ing the anti sub-treasury idea.
Letters and kilograms were sent
out to Chiffon, Bailey, Culberson and
others asking them to hold up the anti-sub-
treasury idea. Unfortunately they failed to
materialize. Tracy was ON hand, so was
Pardue, Rhoads, Leach and other Alliance
men, trimmed for the fray.
At 10 a. N. Judge league of Denison was
introduced and made an eloquent and
pointed speech of welcome, repiete with
sound Democratic doctrine. At its conclus-
ion it was noticeable that Tracy and Pardue
arose and congratulated him.
Pardue was then introduced by DR. Scott
of Pottsboro Mr. Pardue in substance
said the trainers of the constitution had
delegated TO congress the sole right to pro-
vide a postal system, an army and navy,
and that congress had always provided
sufficient postoffices and postal routes
to reach all the people That con-
gress had at all times executed its
constitutional power in this direction That
the constitution had also delegated to con-
gress the sole power to coin money, In
this respect congress- had been derelict In
its duty. That congress had farmed out
the finances to corporations, to private cor
po.ations, and that in doing this congress
had disinherited the people. That money
TO civilization was what blood was to the
human system, that unlike the other func-
tons delegated to congress in the matter of
money it failed to legislate for the people
Mr.. Pardue's speech lasted two hours,
and appeared to please the Alliance people
greatly.
The crowd thickens and the interest will
reach its maximum tomorrow. 1t is
great picnic and great crowd. Eight
thousand people are present now.

Rates on Cotton.

CHICAGO, ILL, Aug. 27.-At conference
between committees of the Southeastern
Mississippi valley association and Central
traffic association held here, it has been
agreed that whenever Southern lines have
advanced rates on cotton from Memphis to
eastern points, lines from Ohio river
points, East st. Louis and upper
Mississippi river points will make
corresponding and simultaneous
advance. 1t was resolved. however,
that if the rates on cotton as fixed by the
commission of Texas prevent routes
through st. Louis, Cairo and Hannibal car
rying their proportion of Texas cotton on a
basis of advanced rates east of the Missis-
sippi river, then such lines will be entitled
to such revision of rates as will enable them
to carry their proportion of the traffic.
