Flood of Applicants at the Market.

At the food market, yesterday. there was
a constant stream of applicants for sup
plies Last night the manager stated that
the business had been nearly double any
other day. There was also an unusual
number of applications at the shoe counter,

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 21-Great
excitment prevails in Union County,

nuggets. Abouta week ago. a Cherokee
woman named Anna Mcdonald, a
granddaughter of Chief Mcintosh, one
OF the famous chieftains of her tribe,
appeared in the neighborhood with a
map showing the purpoted location OF
a large amount of hidden treasure.
She claimed that s500,000 had been
buried there by her grandfather. Peo-
pie were disposed to treat her as a
crank at first, but finally the owner
of the farm on which the treasure was
located, agreed to open the mound for
half of the treasure, if any was found;
Three days ago workmen commenced
excavating and early this morning
found SIC of gold dust and nuggest IN
a jar. Later they unearthed and iron
box containing $4,000 worth OF the
precious metal. She claims that there
IS a great deal more to be unearthed.
Over 1000 people gathered in the
neighborhood of the mound and fifty
men armed with Winchesters are
guarding the treasure spot tonight.

duction of the said bonds and stock to
the amonnt ofS56, 1878, of which the
amount of S25, 400 has been invested

RODDEYS PLAN ENDORSED.
Bat Few Dissenting Votes in the Cotton
Convention.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 21.-An impor-
tant meeting of cotton growers repre-
senting several States occurred IN At
lanta today.
They were called here to consider
plan recently suggested by J: T. Rod
dey, a cotton broker of New York, for
controlling the price Of cotton.
The meeting was presided over by
Hector D. Lane, Commissioner of Ag-
riculture of Alabama.
After some discussion, the plan as
announced by Mr.. Roddey was, on mo-
ton, recommended, Chairman Lane
and one or two other dissenting. a
committee was appointed consisting OF
J. Roddev, 81. 8. Lipscomb of South
Carolina and J. E. Nunnally of Geor-
gia, to call county and State conven-
tons for the election of delegates to
the Interstate convention to be held
at time and place agreed upon by the
committee.
Mr.. Roddey's plan, as explained by
him, is to form a combination of the
cotton growers with a capital of $50,
00O, 900 or 800, 10000 Each cotton
producer is to contribute one bale out
of every five made TO the trust. Esti-
mating the crop at 5000, 900 bales,
this plan would stock the trust with
/, 100000 bales, the withdrawal Of
which from the market, it is urged,
will appreciate the price Is per cent.
One general office is proposed with
branch Offices and warehouses at all
cotton receiving points. The gins in
every county are to be listed and, if
possible, controlled so as to know the
exact production and to regulate the
supply of cotton.
In regard to the management of
the company, it is to have one general
or head Office, say in New York or New
Orleans, with two general directors
from each cotton growing State; have
one office in each State with one direc-
tor from each county in that State and
have sub-ofhces in all the principal
cities and towns in the different States
to control the local cotton, all to be
controlled by the general or head Of
fee; have either special insurance
company organized or the present
companies brought to low rate; let
company Warehouse receipts be issued
with insurance policies and if the far
mer needs money, let the company ad-
vance him fve-eights or two-thirds of
the value of his warehouse receipts.

TOBACCO AND SILK CULTURE.
The Board of Control of the expert
mental station makes an interesting
report. Among other things it says:
The question of tobacco curing
was very fully discussed. Letters were
addressed last winter to number of
the leading growers, intimatlng our
willingness to render the industry any
assistance suggested. Thetenor Of the
replies received led us to forego any
thing in that line for the present.
anticipating favorable action by
Congress on the bill now pending
locating a number of silk growing ex-
perimental stations, we have taken
proper steps to present our claims and
have filed an application for the loca-
ton of one of them at our college.

Annual Report of the Superintendent of
the State Penitentiary--The General Con-
dition of the Prison--Other Facts of
Note.
COLUMBIA, s. c., Nov. 21.-The an
nual report of the superintendent of
the State penitcntiary to the General
Assembly, just issued, makes interest
ing reading 1t presents an array of
facts bearing on crime in South Caro-
lima which affords an interesting
study. Superintendent Neal says:
''On the 31st of October, 1898, there
were confined IN the State penitenti-
ary and convicts camp ,033 prisoners.
Received from county courts during
the year, $50; recaptured, 36; total l.
73S. Lost by expiration of sentence,
535; by pardon, so; by escape, 80; by
death 81; killed attempting to escape,
/: killed accidentally, 3; transferred
to thesasylum, /; total lost, SIS; leav-
ing this day in confinement, 1.062;
making an increase of 20 over last
year.
I'VE have made during the year
many improvements, having now a
perfect system Of water works and
sewerage; no better to be found any
where.
We had the misfortune to lose by
fire the hosiery mill on the 25th of
April, which had just been enlarged
and improved at cost of $4,000. |
am glad to report that the hosiery mill
has been rebuilt double the size of the
old one, and substantial and conven-
lent. at cost of $4,000. The i'm
provements inside of the yard have
been upwards of $4,000. Feeling the
necessity of more land, to use the
convalescing and cripple, and such
labor as we could not hire out or send
out ON farms, we rented 175 acres of
land for three years near the yard.
We planted 100 acres in cotton, 80 In
corn and 25 in potatoes, &C., from
which we have made at the low price
of farm produce, about 81, 900 worth,
which was almost a clear profit. l
am glad to report that the crops this
year are all good. with few exceptions,
altogether good average. At the
best estimate which is possible for me
to make at this date, I would say that
we have on hand and to be gathered,
$50 bales of cotton, 10000 bushels of
corn. 5000 bushels of oats, 5000 bush.
els of peas, $50 bushels of wheat, and
at the low or present prices of farm
products we will be able to pay the
$1,000 now due on the DeSaussure
farm, and all other outstanding in
debtedness of the institution and to
have on hand 1T least $4,000 in cash
to begin the next years operations.
I'VE have purchased during the
year seven head of mules and horses
and have now on hand sixteen head,
all in good condition and most OF
them young and valuable. We will
have $50 head of fine pork hogs to
kill this winter. and also have on
band thirty head of milch COWS.
Il would especially call your atten-
ton to the fact that this institution
has been heavily drained during the
past fiscal year by Clemson College
and the Girls Industrial School at
Rock Hill and the South Carolina
lunatic asylum, as follows:

so YOU will see that this institu-
ton has been taxed during the year
by these institutions to the amount of
s22, ,S5O,33 besides furnishing four or
five convicts and one guard to the
State house the entire year free of
charge, as required by law. I would
especially call your attention to the
small death rate and list of escapes,
both of which have been remarkably
small this year; the recapture of prls-
oners for the year has been equal to
the escapes. | feel sure that under
the find water closet and sewerage
system which we now have, our death
rate will be much smaller in the fu-
ture than in the past. In reference to
the food, clothing and sanitary condl-
ton of the institution, would refer
you to the report of our efficient ply
sician, DR.. D. S. Pope. It gives me
much pleasure to commend the faith
full service of our chaplain, Rev. A. ?.
Norris, and for the spiritual condition
of the prisoners would cali your at
tention to his report. I would beg to
thank the board of directors, officers
and guards for their kind treatment,
which have at all times received at
their hands: our relations and busi-
ness transactions have BEEN most
pleasant during the entire year. For
the business transactions of the office
would call your attention to the full
and complete report of our competent
clerk of board and booEkeeper, R. E.
Burris."
The report of the board of directors
of the same institution shows that the
actual and estimated profits of the in
stitution for the past year were S27.-
