WARRENToN, Mo, June 16.-The
dormitory of the Central Wesleyan
College was destroyed by fire last
night. At the time the fire was dis
covered 1,20O people were in the
college hall in attendance or COM

quietly had the doors locked seps-

The Cotton Crop.
By Southern Associated Press.

By Southern Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Ga, June 16.-In a brief
interview in the Constitution with
s. NJ. Inman concerning the cotton
crop, that we'll known gentleman,
who stands high in the cotton trade
of America, was made to say that
this years crop would be smaller
than last year. This was an error.
In talking TO reporter of the Con-
stitution, Mr.. Inman said that this
years plant was smaller than last
year, referring to the plant itself
and not to the crop, the lateness OF
the season and frequency of cold
snaps during the spring being TIE
cause of the undoubted tardiness in
the development of the cotton plant
It was to this that Mr. Inman re.
ferred in speaking of the smallness
of the plant. As to the size of the
crop he expressed no opinion, stat
ing that he was not prepared t
talk with any degree of accuracy OF
the subject at this time.

The Southern Railway Association.
By Southern Associated Press.

New YoBK, June 16.-The annual
meeting of the Southern Railway
ana Steamship Association was con-
tinued today at the FIFTH Avenue
Hotel, the session beginning at 10
o'clock. Discussion over the new
agreement was Immediately begun.
The various roads did not agree to
sign the document with the alacrity
that had been anticipated. A sub
committee, which was appointed at
yesterdays session to act on the
matter OF the new agreement, re-
ported no progress, and asked that
the matter be referred back to the
meeting, and that the committee be
discharged. At noon the discus
sion was still going on, no action
having been taken.
There has been a general cutting
OF rates by various roads, and there
is q cause in the new agreement for
the purpose of putting an end to
this practice. Few of the roads
have been able to resist the tempta-
tion to thus secure business that
would otherwise 60 to rival roads,
and strong opposition has been de-
veloped against changing the old
agreement in this particular. It is
this clause in the new agreement
that has made trouble, and the execu-
tive board and the board of adjust
ment has been unable to smooth
matters over.
The other point which has been
turned over to the subcommittee
is the exact relationship to the
association of the extension of the
Norfolk and Western to Columbus,
Ohio. This extension was formerly
known as the Scioto Valley road
Its situation gives it little in com.
mon with other roads in the asso.
citation other thsn its connection
with the Norfolk and Western sys.
tenn. 1t taps large business in
the neighborhood by other roads
in the association, and comes into
competition with lines not affected
by their rules and regulations
The complication is one not easily
disposed of. The meeting contin
ued in session until 1:3O o'clocl
without arriving at settlement o
any of the questions involved
The discussion WAS lively and a
times warm. Finding it impossibl
to come to any settlement of tn
questions involved. The meet

of the parties as indicated by the

Social Democrats had continued to
gain at the expense of the Richter

lost apparently four of their former
seats, but had made up for the loss
by increasing their chances in the
second ballots and by winning three

THE BORDEN TRIAL.
The Defence Opens.

A New Bedford despatch says
that in his speech Andrew Jennings,
counsel for the defence, said:
"You will find that motive as
one of the links in the chain of cir
cumstantial evidence becomes of
tremendous Importance. The gov
ernment's chain is that whoever
killed one killed the other, and
where they have assumed to show
q motive for the killing of her own
father. In measuring the motive
you have got to apply in it this case
as between That girl and her own
father.
"The blood which was shown in
the axes has disappeared. The
claw-headed hatchett has disap-
peared from the case. It did not
disappear until after Professor
Wood had said on tnat Ito the de-
| fense) most glorious morning in
Fall River that there could not
have been blood on it to have
washed so quickly.
| "The attempt has been made
| here to surround this house, to
completely shut it in; but you have
heard the evidence on that matter.
