COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing Prices
At the Monday meeting at Elgin last week s
prices of creamery butter were reatfirmed,
so that our quotations will hold good for
another week. Choice country butter is in
limited supply and active demand at an ad-
vance over last weeks prices. High grade
cheese is firm enough to go higher. Strictly
fresh eggs are still scarce and sell readily
at outside quotations. From all trade CEN
ters comes the report of an unusual scarcity
of fresh eggs. Cold storage stock is almost
exhausted in this market. The movement of
vegetables and fruit is still SLOW Tropical
fruits still favor the buyer, lemons and
bananas being unusually quiet the past few
days. The demand for seeds of all kinds
has steadily increased the past week, and
cloverseed has been decidedly advanced.

increase in the deposits. which for the first
time reached over $500,00 900, have had an
effect in stimulating speculation, and there
has been gratifying increase in loans which

THE WEATHER YESTERDAY.
The Hottest Day of the Year Recorded at
Many Places.

Dispatches from different portions
of the country show that the weather
was exceedingly hot yesterday.
In Cincinnati there were several
cases of sunstroke, some of which
proved fatal.
In Louisville the thermometer in
the observatory, six stories above the
street, registered 101 degrees, while
on the first floor of the same building
the mercury touched ITO degrees.
There was very hot weather all
over the country and many cases o.
sunstroke are reported.
AT Clarksville the thermometer
did not go as high as at other points
Last night, however, was the warm
est night so far. Maj. Tapscott's
thermometer at sundown registered
88 degrees. At O'Clock last night
when put on the ground in the grass
it fell only to 80 degrees, which is
about 10 degrees higher than the dew
point. The temperature this morn
ing at Z o'clock was fraction over 8(
degrees, the highest it has been, ac
cording to Maj TaL scott, this season
at that hour.

THE PINEvILLE DEAL.
Two Big Kentucky Corporations Come to
an Agreement.

Special to the Leaf-Chronicle.l
LOUISVILLE, July 26.-The nego-
tiations which have been going on
between the Pine Mountain Iron and
Coal Company and the Southern
Land Improvement Company, look
ing to the payment by the latter
company of the interest on its bonds,
it is said, have been satisfactorily ar
ranged. However, all the details
have not yet been fixed upon, but it
is probable that they will be in few
days.
The Southern Land Improvement
Company, it is said, is to be reorgan-
ized. MIR. F. Fremont Reed, who
has had active charge of the affairs of
the company at Pineville for some
time past, is to resign, and Mr.. j. d.
Blake, one of the largest stockhold-
ers, will probably succeed him. Mr..
Reed was in Louisville recently and
stated on his return to Pineville that
he had sold out his stock to Mr..
Blake and his friends.
Mr.. Ray, the President of the Pine
Mountain Coal and Iron Company,
was seen by reporter yesterday af-
ternoon. He said he did not know
whether matters had been fixed up.

ber of years a member OF

was also member of Clarks-
vile Royal Arch Chapter No.
8. He was a good Mason and loved
his fraternity as he did his church.

Some twenty-five or thirty people
went to Russellville this morning to
see the game OF ball between the
Gracey- -Woodwards and the nine of
that place. The game will be good
one and will be published in detail
in the LEAF-CHRoNICLE tomorrow.
The game tomorrow evening be-
tween the Queen Citys and the Guth-
rie nine will be called about $3.50, and
will be one of the best of the season,
Judging from the former playing OF
the two clubs.
Did you see the game of base ball
between the tobacco men yesterday +?
II you did not, then you have lived
| in vain. For two hours and half
these gladiators struggled in tine
arena while Rome looked on and
laughed. At the end of the fifth in
ming, which was about the eleventh
hour and darkness was descending
upon the red hot world, victory
perched upon the Warehousemens'
banner. And the playing! Oh! it
was great. The way those eighteen
men chased flies and fell on ground
ers was a sight which the 800 people
who braved the intense heat will
never forget. Where all played so
brilliantly it is difficult to particular
ize, but it would be unjust not to
mention the short stop work of Dar.
den for the Buyers. Once he fell
on a ball so hard that pick aud
shovel had to be used to dig it out OF
the earth.
Those two mines are the sorest lot
of men in town, particularly the
Buyers who in addition to their
many bodily hurts have to endure
the sting of defeat. AT late hour
last night the book-keepers who had
charge of the score declared that the
Warehousemen had won by the score
of 40 to IS, but as all the returns are
not in it is thought that the correct
score will be 400 to 1870. Another
game will be played soon, as the
Buyers are not satisfied at the result
The thanks of both teams are due
the Queen Citys for their kindness in
lending the players their equipments

The Dickson County Lynchine.

The hanging of Jas. Wynn by the
mob in Dickson county, yesterday,
will meet with severe criticism from
both the press and the public. 1t was
nothing short of murder in the first
degree, and the perpetrators should
be punished. The following excerpt
from the American Is sample of the
condemnation which will surely fol-
low:
"rhe perpetrators have branded
themselves rs criminals. They have
vio'nte the law in the identical de-
gree that their victim violated 1t.
They should be arrested, brought to
Justice and treated exactly AZ the law
says he would have been treated.
Every mothers son Of them should
be tried for murder and hanged by
their necks until they are dead, dead,
dead."

BEFORE BUCHANAN.
The Third Party Committee
Calls on the Governor.
He Does Not Decline to Become an In.
dependent Candidate, and ''Silenoe
Gives Consent"
The Nashville Banner says:

The Nashville Banner says:
"Ex. Senator G. I'll. Slaughter,
Messrs. John Allen, w. HI. Smith, r.
Ledbetter, John HI. Shelton, J. w.
Langford, Col. VIM. Young and E.
s. Dance, composing a committee ap-
pointed at meeting of Buchanan
Democrats held at Clarksville Satur-
day, called on Gov. Buchanan at
noon and presented to him the reso-
lutions adopted at this meeting call
ing on the Governor to run as an in
dependent candidate.
"The committee were closeted with
Gov. Buchanan for an hour. Col.
Young, chairman of the committee,
read the platform and resolutions.
Gov. Buchanan did not give the
committee an answer as to his inten-
tion, but listened attentively to the
committee.
"Ml. John Allen, member of the
committee, was interviewed after he
left the executive Office, and said he
did not know what the Governor in
tended to do. He said the Governor
made no reply to the requests in the
resolution, but quietly listened to the
committee.
"Mr. Allen said the people of Mont
gomery county thought Gov. Bu-
chanan had teen badly treated and
they wanted him to be their cam
didate."
1t is but proper for the LEAF
CHRONICLE to state that this ac-
ton of the "People of Montgom-
cry county" was in accord with the
sentiments of about 200 men, possibly
not so many. The Democrats OF
MontgomerJ county are for Judge
Turney, and that gentleman will car.

Commenting on this action the
Banner says:
"It occurs to us that if the Govern
or had made up his mind to abide
the action of the Democratic conven-
tion in August and support the ticket
nominated by that convention, be-
fore which he is expected to 60 as q
candidate, he would have no reason
for deferring an answer to the com
mittee from Montgomery county.
1t seems to be reasonable as
sumption that If the Govern

possibility of candidacy indepen-
dent of the Democratic nomination,
he would have been prompt to in.

FRANKFORT, KY, July 26.-The
Conference Committee ON the reve-
nue. and taxation bill held private
meetings yesterday afternoon. The
members agreed to keep the proceed
ings secret, but, as usual, a good deal
has leaked out. In general way 1t
may be said the Senate amendments
are being adhered to, though some
concessions have been made. The
conclusion has about been reached 10
leave the assessments of corporations
as provided in the Senate amend
ments and to give the Auditor the
power to appoint Auditors agents.
Quite squabble arose over the coun-
ty treasurer system, and this matter
will be discussed again to day. 1t is
understood that the action of the
committee so far is subject to recon-
mendation. Members say that they
think an amicable understanding
will be arrived at today, and that a
report will be made TO the General
Assembly Wednesday morning.
Then the battle will rage in earnest,
as the most exciting fight of the ses-
sion is promised in the House If the
Senate amendments are recommend
ed by the committee, as is generally
anticipated.
