There rally from the ex- irene inside point of today right at tue close, but it was caused by that unsubstantial buying known as "covering,' and not from anyi hing denotng change in the situation. The wheat which came on the market was long stuff, and expressed the feeling of holders In the utter hopelessness of attempting to bull prices at the present stage of affairs. Al he opening prices gave evidence ot indecision on the part of traders due to the excitement and advance in corn and to a moderate decrease in the amount on ocean passage. The free arrivals al winter wheat points and the lower cables soon pointed the way, however. and there- after there was no strength in the market. September wheat opened al from 54A to S6esc and closed at 53sec. Cash wheat was in about the usual demand from nillers and elevator owners. The offerings were strong and prices declined l2d s4c per bushel
 Corn-More interest ccHtered in this market at the opening than anywhereelse on the floor. The shorts in May were particularly desirous Of covering up the.r contracts, and the other n..icns were strong, but not quite so excited as that month After the early animation had settled into less excited condition prices held strong and at the close took another up- ward jump. September corn opene at from N42l2 to 43l2c, sold between 437s and 42l2c, closing at 43Ac, 1hc higher than Saturday. May closed 2lsc hi2 her.

The dealings were attended with considerable animation, some The stock received inside support all day, and the buying was based on dispatches from Washington that the fate of the tariff bill was in doubt on account of the dissensions between the senate and house on sugar duties. The jump in Sugar led to several rallies in the general list. The bankrupt and other low priced stocks were notably heavy and touched tIe lowest points for some time past.

np NEWMAN AT BRooKHAvEN.

DIR. A. NJ. Newman, nominee OF the
PEOPLES party for Congress in this
district, spoke to small audience at
Heuck's Opera House last Friday. HIS
speech was devoted principally to Il
discussion of the currency question
and government ownership of rail-
roads. He also showed that the Dem
ocrats of the Legislature. and not the
Populists, were responsible for the
State warrant issue, ali the Popullsts,
lie said, voting against the bill on its
final passage. He paid his respects to
the Cleveland Administration for in
terfering with the rights of State
and arresting Gov. Stone and other
State officials, as he believed, at the
dictation of the National Banks which
are Jealous of all efforts to increase
the circulating medium other than
through banking corporations.
DR.. Newman is not fluent speak
er, but during his two hours effort,
presented many facts and arguments
which his Democratic opponents will
have to scratch their heads a long
time before they can answer.

The editor of THE LEADER is in re-
ceipt of q letter from Populist Pro
hibitionist, asserting that the nominee
of the Democratic party in a certain
district of this State is drunkard and
sot, and requesting us to write an ar
ticle warning all good citizens to vote
against him. 1t would not be q sur
prising thing for the Democratic party,
under the inspiration of the 21st plank
of the Chicago platform, to have that
kind of candidate, and it is a part of
the business of The LEADER to turn
the public gaze upon and expose
drunken officials and drunkards seek
ing official station. without reference
to the party to which they belong; but
it must have the facts and not be I'M
just and accuse any one wrongfully. Ii
the gentleman who makes the charge
and request mentioned will produce
proof of what he says or
give us the names of reliable persons
who will do so, we will write the very
best article we know how, embellished
with the name of the alleged sot, and
exhort all good citizens of his district
to bury him in November beneath an
avalanche of Prohibition ballots.

ORGANIZE! ORGANIZE {!

The following adopted by the last
State Prohibition Convention is com
mended to Prohibitionists throughout
he State at this time:
Resolved, That each County in this
State should be thoroughly organized
at once and to this end it is urged that
the Prohibitionists of their respective
counties, should meet and elect a
County Executive Committee, consist
ing of Chairman and u Secretary and
ono member for each election precinct
or Supervisors district, and report the
result &C their conventions to the
Chairman of the State Executive Com
mittee.
2nd, That the members of the State
Executive Committee be diligent in
this matter. 1t is also the sense OF
this Convention that the membership
of the party in this State should be
Systematically enrolled in each county
and the County Executive Committees
are urged to see to this.

VOTE FOR BARR.

Every county of the nine in this dis
trict except one (Madison) has adopted
local prohibition it therefore follows
as an indisputable fact, that if all
the voters of the district who believe
in the principle and policy of prohibit
ton would vote i'm accordance there
with when they go to the polls in No
vember, that Thos. p. Barr, the Prohi-
bition party nominee, would be easily
elected over both of his opponents.
Such a result would not only be
victory for grand and righteous prin-
ciple, but such victory would be sig
nificant and its influence far-reaching.
IL you believe in prohibition in fact
and in truth, why not vote for man
and a party that accord with you on
this question. instead of against you
That is what sensible and an honest
man ought to do. Do you answer,
there are other important questions
besides Prohibition, which need set
thing? Certainly there are, but de-
stroy the liquor traffic and its corrupt
ing influence in politics, and the cur
rency, the tariff, the transportation
and other questions can be settled the
quicker and better. II you are sure
enough Prohibitionist and RefOrmer,
vote for Thos. 2. Barr.

Mrs. Martha Fitzhugh, mother of
President L. T. titzhugh, of Belhaven
College, died at the home OF her daugh-
ter, Mrs. w. b. Easterling, in Rankin
county last week, aged about 10 years.
Mrs. Fitzhugh was one of the purest
and brightest Christian characters we
ever knew, and there was no one with
in the wide circle of her acquaintance
but admired and loved her. The very
mention of her cherished name carries
the writer back in memory to the joy
Gus associations of happy childhood
and to fond recollections of other low
ed ones who preceded her to the Beu-
lab Land.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1894-10-02

Not week passes that THE LEADER
does not receive multiplied evidences
of the growth of Prohibition party
sentiment in this and other districts
of the State. The people are fast
realizing the great political Importance
of the liquor question, to which selfish
politicians and in some instances
we'll meaning but misguided men have
long kept them blinded. Others are
awaking to their solemn moral re-
sponsibility in the matter and realiz-
ing the inconsistency and moral guilt
of supporting liquor party while at
the same time processing to be friends
of humanity, morality and prohibi-
ton. Let the friends of the Prohibi-
ton party every where take fresh cour-
age and press this issue to the front
all along the line. Truth and right
are mighty and will prevail. We are
growing.
