Farmers Of the Northwest Not
Selling Much of That
Cereal,
But They Are Rushing Their
COaTser Grains on the
Market.
More Flax at Duluth in Septem-
Der Than in All Last
Year.

ErDCLUTH, Oct. l5.-There ls no doubt
that Northwestern farmers are holding
back their wheat on account of the low
prices prevailing, and marketing their
coarser grain instead. For several days
past the receipts of wheat in this market
have fallen below those of last year.
Receivers say that offerings are daily
growing lighter, and the daily sales
here support the statement. On the
other hand, there has been more than a
corresponding increase in coarse grains,
though of course the daily reports Of car
inspection do not show as large total
for all grain receipts.
Big Flax Receipts.
During the first / days of the month,
the receipts OF fax were equal to nearly
two-thirds the total amount received
during the full month of September.
The quantity received during the
month of September was Sl6,662 bush
els, which was more than came here
during the entire last crop year
while for the first II days of October,
the receipts We're 527 $40 bushels The
same proportion prevails with regard tC
all coarse grains, except rye. The re.
ceipts of oats for II days of October
have been sc, 500 bushels, as compared
with Sl,245 bushels during the entire
month of September. Barley receipts
during October thus far have bren 356,
253 bushels. while the total for the
month of September was only 5lO,77i
bushels.
OF course it is not reasonable to feal
that the wheat movement will continue
relatively small for any length of time

Dissatisfaction with the Memphis
Convention Alleged.

Atlanta. Ca. May 25-The Atlanta dele
cation 70 the Memphis currency conven.
ton returned home this afternoon and
with their arrival the announcement is
made that another convention will be
called in the fan. which will permit a
discussion Of the financial question. The
Atlanta delegates were supporters Of the
financial policy Of the administration and
the announcement Of dissatisfaction at
the Memphis convention was received
with surprise here. II seems that the
delegates complain that the entire affair
was cut and dried and nobody had any
showing 10 advance any argument that
conhict.d with the prearranged pro-
gramme.
Among the prominent members Of the
Atlanta delegation were T. b. Neal. r. T.
Maddox and c. a. Collier. bankers. and
A. II. Cox and II. T. Inman. The GeOr-
gia delegation in caucus before the con-
ventiOn decided TO offer resolution sug-
costing the unconditional repeal of the 10
per cent. tax on state banks. II seems
that they were cut OF by the resolution
adopted Immediately on the assembling
Of the convention that all resolutions
should be referred to the committee on
platform without debate. Such resolu-
lions as were presented by the Georgia
delegates were never heard from again
The dissatisfaction OF the Georgia dele
cation is expressed in the movement be-
gun on the return trip 10 Atlanta TO call
another convention which will permit a
full discussion of the financial question
and which would be dominated by bust
ness men instead of politicians. II is
claimed by members OF the Atlanta dele
cation that not a business man was per-
mitted to open his mouth at the Memphis
convention, the only speeches made being
those of Congressman Josiah Patterson OF
Tennessee, Richard Clark of Alabama
and Catchngs of Mississippi.
Nothing has yet been done towards the
calling of the new convention further than
the announcement of the determination
that it is TO be held and that it will be a
business mems convention. Members of
the Atlanta delegation in interviews on the
subject admit that the movement Is under
way, and that the call for another con-
vention has been decided on. This step
was agreed upon in conference with dele
gates from other states who discussed the
matter on the return trip.
Mr.. Romare, vice president OF the At
lanta National Bank, in an interview to-
day expressed great surprise at the action
OF the convention in declaring for the
abolition OF the national banks. Mr.. Ro-
mare was one Of those who took promi-
nent part in sending a delegation from
here to the Memphis convention. He had
no idea that any attack on the national
banks was contemplated, and in to-days
interview says that fortunately the Mem
phis convention cannot repeal the ma
tional bank act, but that that must be
done by congress. and that 1t will not
do it,

sengers and the conductor and crew rush
ed up to the thief and arrested him. On
his person was found a gold watch and

capture. but. recovering. he grew furious
and swore that in a few days he would
kill the conductor. He was brought to
Wildwood and turned over to the officers.

kee, and took this method of replenishing

cARoLINA'S BITTER CONTEST.
HAMPTON ADVISES THE CONSERVA-
TIVEs NOT TO COMPROMISE.

He Takes no stock in the Attempt To
Create Fear Of Negro Domination.
He Advises the Conservatives to
Nominate as Delegates to the Con-
ventiOn the AbIest Men TO BE Found
in Each of the Counties.
Columbia, S. c.. May 25.-In compli-
nee with a public call for his views.
zen. Hampton has written letter giving
his views and advice upon the present
political situation. Since Judge Gof's de-
cision as 10 the unconstitutionality OF the
registration law. the standing OF the two
factions Of whites has been reversed-the
Conservative democrats having the sup
port Of the enfranchised negroes.
The agitating question is whether the
conservatives" should compromise with
the "reformers." or Tinmanites. and go
with them into a primary 10 nominate
delegates for the constitutional conven-
ton. which win call out opposing nomina-
tions from the negroes. or whether they
shall accept the proffered support OF the
negroes, who look TO them for fair deal
ing, and fight the battle at the general
election.
On this subject Gen. Hampton writes.
He says in part: when 1 last attempted
10 plead for peace and a restoration of
the fraternal relations which since &c
had governed all OF our citizens. South
Carolina audience refused to hear me, and
drove me from the stage. have taken no
part in public affairs in the state since
them not because my interest in them
was abated. but because had been rudely
notified that my voice had no longer any
weight in the counsels Of the state.
But am still citizen OF South Caro-
lima, proud of her honorable record in
the past. jealous Of her honor and deeply
mortified at the condition she now occupies
and the estimation in which she is held
throughout the union.
IF my advice can have any weight in
the state, IL would be for all conservatives,
the only truly national democratic repre-
sentatives in the state, to refuse to go
into any primary or any so-called com
promise; to nominate in every county the
ablest and best men-conservatives and re-
formers-who will strive TO make good
constitution, referring IL TO the people for
ratification or rejection, and in all cases
90 set their faces resolutely against all
fraud in our elections.
Il have no fear of negro domination-a
cry used only to arouse race prejudices
and to put the coming convention under
control of the ring which now dominates
our state. The negroes have acted of late
with rare moderation and liberality and If
we meet them In the same spirit they have
shown, they will aid in selecting good
representatives, for the convention. J. for
one, am willing to trust them and they
ask only the rights guaranteed to them by
the constitution of the United States and
that of our own state. Corruption wins
not more than honesty and / advocate
perfect honesty, for defeat on that line is
better than victory by fraud "
