A DISMAL YEAR FOR THEM.
Ma val Stores Operators Have a Ha
Time Pulling Through.

Naval Stores Operators Have a Hard
Time Pulling Through.
Savannah's receipts OF spirits are now
about 20 per cent. in excess Of what they
we're at this time last year. The percentage
of increase is gradually dropping down,
though, and at the end of the season the in
crease will probably not be more than Is
per cent.
The price still remains at an improbable
point to all concerned in the industry. At
1854 cents per gallon 1t is practically out Of
the question for producers, even under the
most favorable circumstances, to make
money. The financial results Of the pres
ent crop will be thoroughly unsatisfactory,
and were it not for the fact that they
started out this season in good condition
many producers would have been forced
out of the business before this.
While the spot market has been steady
at such low prices, little better feeling in
the past few days has been evidenced In
futures. with speculative offerings as fol-
lows: September December 291S January
April 81, May-August 80.
while producers are making nothing
this year, they will still manage to keep
their heads above water and be il position
TO do something the next season" said a
factor yesterday in discussing the situation.
Next year the output will not be 30 large
as this year. The operators are working
together in harmony and are fully alive to
their true interests. There are reasons, out
side Of any action they may voluntarily
take that must result in a reduced crop. The
most important is the fact that they and the
factors as we'll, will be short of money.
Without cash they will be unable TO cut as
many boxes as usual, and will be forced to
abandon many old boxes. | suppose an
operator here and there may be compelled
10 go out of business this season, but they
will be few In number By careful economy
the great majority will pull through and
make money next year"

The Pullman company is building a
great many new cars this year, not
especially for the worlds fair business, but
for travel TO conventions. Within a few
years it has become customary to combine
with attendance on conventions a sort of
pleasure trip. This requires large num-
Der OF cars, often for two weeks at time.
By giving reduced rates and sidetracking
sleepers, 80 that they can be used as
hotels the railroads have encouraged the
travel OF delegates to conventions Over
500 sleeping cars we're in use to carry dele
gates to the democratic convention in Chi
cago, and the Knights Templar had $50
chartered for the Denver travel. The Pull
man company is building $50 vsstibuled
sleeping cars OF the latest design. For the
worlds fair business a different sort of
car will be used. IL will be Of less expensive
type and will be so constructed that 1t can
be changed for other uses when the worlds
fair is over. These cars will have the
standard 6O-foos day coach body, with the
Pullman strengthening and anti-telescop-
ing devices used in first-class sleepers. They
will not DO vestbuled. They will contain
fourteen sections, with Iavatories and
saloons, but will have no smoking or draw
ing room. The interior finish will be ma
hogany. Berths will be arranged as now
used in Pullman sleepers. When the worlds
fair is over these cars can be turned into
day coaches by removing the berths and re-
placing them with ordinary seats, or they
may be made into chair or parlor cars, az
the interior finish Will be better than is ordl-
narily put a. day coaches.

BAKING POWDER.

The Royal" the Strongest and
Purest Baking Powder.

Whether any other baking powder is equal to
"Royal," let the official reports decide. When
the different powders were purchased on the open
market and examined by Prof Chandler, of the
New-York Board of Health, the result showed that
Royal Baking Powder contained twenty-seven
per cent greater strength than any other brand
When compared in money value, this difference
would be as follows:
If one pound of Royal Baking Powder sells
for 50 cents,
One pound of no other powder is worth over
SO cents.
If another baking powder is forced upon you
by the grocer in place of the Royal, see that you
are charged the correspondngly lower price,

Sketch of Col. Vim. a, Mac
Corkie.

-
Tie Charleston Gazette furnishes
the following Biographical sketch of
Col. YIN. A. MacCorkle the Demo-
cratic nominee for Governor of West
Virginia:
"William a. MacCorkle was born
near Lexington, Rockbridge county,
Va, on the 7th of May. 1853. He
is the oldest son of the late Vim.
MacCorsIe, also n native of Rock
bridge county, Va. He comes from
a long line of Scotch Presbyterian
ministers and elders. When William
was only four years old his father
died, having removed with his family
to Missouri. Previous to the war
the elder MacCorkle was in excellent
circumstances. but ear the close of
the war he was utterly broken up by
the invasion of the Federal armies
into Virginia. William and his
mother therefore had a struggle in
life, but the boy was remarkable for
his energy and perseverance, and
worked hard to support his mother.
Mrs. MacCorkle and her three chill
dren returned to Virginia, and Will
liam entered the Washington and Lee
University at Lexington, from which
he subsequently graduated-from
the law course of that institution-
when only twenty years of age. He
was a remarkably hard STUDENT
His mother states that she never saw
him asleep at any time while attend
ing school except when she saw him
lying across a table with his head bur
led in a book. Hard labor has been
the foundation of his Soon
after graduating from Washington
and Lee University he zane to
Charleston to seek his fortune. He
arrived here in the year 1879 almost
penniIess and taught one term of a
private school. By this means he
was enabled to support himself and
at the same time render some assist
ance to his widowed mother, till he
was enabled to gain some practice in
the profession of law. He succeeded
in building up a lucrative practice
and since his residence in Charleston
has been very successful at the bar.
The only civil Office he ever held or
sought was that of city solicitor of
Charleston, which he held for three
| consecutive terms. At present he is
largely interested financially in var
ious business interest of Charleston
and of the State. He has given a
great deal of thought and labor to
the material development of West
Virginia."
