The Victoria Colonist of "Wednesday

Bendrodt, at his home over James Bay,
is IA weatherb eaten name board which
recalls once more to mind the terrible
storms THAT swept the Pacific coaDt during
the closing weeks of 1894. 1t re-opens
speculation, too, AIS to how the ill-starred
MontseTrat and Keweenaw met their fate.
and offers new theory for the con-
sidertatiUn Of those anxious for so;u.

The nameboard iierred to, and wtnion
Captain Bendrodt brought to Victoria on
Saturday last, bears the name "Kewee-

EUFAULA.
The Alliance Is Considering the Location of
 a Warehouse.

Eufaula, April 21.-(Special Correspond ence )-Mr. Bud Wood and Mir. Warren J. Clark, two of a committee of four alli- ancemen appointed at a late meeting at Rocky Mount to secure a warehouse in Eufaula, were in town yesterday looking over the situation and getting some data
 MT Clark said that the alliance paid $2700, including interest, for the ware house at Clayton in the four years 1t had been engaged in the cotton business and that 1t had now $700 in the bank and owed nothing at all. The warehouse had been paid for and the surplus accumulated without costing a single member of the order 1 cent. The whole was clear gain. His committee and the alliance be- leved it quite possible for the order to- do as well here at Eufaula and they expected to try it. Both of the gentlemen said they had met with encouragement from every business man with whom they had conversed. The committee will meet here again on the first Saturday in May, when something definite will be done.
 The cotton market is still looking up, the figures at the close yesterday stand- ing May 6S7. The stock on hand. how ever, is about 50 per cent off from what 1t was this time last year. In many in- stances those who have been holding for three or four years seem to have become disgusted and took advantage of the re- cent rise In the market to sell and some of the warehouses are almost empty.
 Information reached here yesterday that prominent farmer, who became in volved In difficulty with negro boy fn Ozark Friday night, was seriously cut by the latter No further information as to the unfortunate affair could be gained.

 Abbeville, April 21.-(Special Core spondence .)--The farmers of this section are busily employed working their crops. Corn and cotton are both growing rap idly.
 Several have gone into the melon busi- ness and have splendid stands already up. There will be more attention paid to hogs, tobacco and tomatoes this year than ever before. Tn fact the farmers of Henry county have decided to greatly reduce their acreage of cotton and to plant in its stead such products as VIII enable them to live at home.

The Iron Market.

Cincinnati, O., April 20.-The forces that have been gathering strength in the general iron market for month past, made themselves decidedly felt near the close of the week. Southern irons which have been the slowest to re- Spond to the upward tendency were ad- vanced all along the line under very heavy sales. The advance was small only 20 cents ton, and the feeling of the trade is that it will be maintained with ease The leading producer, the Tennes- see Coal, Iron and Railroad company, had kept on selling at the old schedule, not wishing to make any false start until it has over 200, 900 tons of thrilled orders on it's books The other leading compa- nies, Sloss and Woodward, are equally well sold in proportion to their capacity. The feeling of southern makers through out is conservative, but this trif1ing ad- vance seems quite justified by the facts of the market, and it will be fully main tained, unless there is marked falling off in demand. This seems improbable at present.
 In northern irons the advanced figures are realized without difficulty Bessemer has sold at $11 at Pttsburg, and Grey Forge at $9 at valley furnaces. It seems probable that the larger demand for Bes- semer will divert some stacks from foun- dry and forge grades to Bessemer, thus relieving the pressure of these grades upon the market.
 Another element of strength that has developed is the scrap situation. Rail- roads have forced scrap to sale for two pyears past, to provide ready money. The result has heeYi an excess supply and ex- z sceptionally low prices. Now it develops that the roads which have forced the ma : terial for sale are bare of all kinds of scrap, while the roads which have been holding on are very bullish in their views. Scrap dealers are quick to see the situ- ation, and short supply and higher prices are the result. It is believed the effect will soon be felt upon forge irons which have so long been stagnant be- cause of very limited pudding.
 The condition of things illustrates very we'll the general law that evils and in :, equalities in trade have tendency to cure themselves
 We make no formal change in quota tions but the close is strong, with an ad- vancing tendency.
