EXPOSITION NOTES.
Kentucky Editors in Charge Yesterday -Exhib- itors Combne-WII Diaz Come ?-The
 Show Is Complete at Last.

Atlanta Ga., Sept. 27.-The Kentucky editors were in complete possession of
 the exposition again today. After they grew weary of walking over the grounds
 and seeing the show, the entire party re- paired to the barbecue pavilion, where
 the editors had royal time of it. They
 will remain here until tomorrow night
 The exhibitors at the exposition have perfected an organization to be known as the Exhibitors Association of the Cotton States and International exposi-
 tion. Several kicks against evils real
 or imaginary were registered but the
 meeting was all in all harmonious one The association was formed to further the social as well as the business inter- ests of the exhibitors.
 Gen. Carlos Diaz Gutierrez. the gover- nor of San Luis Potosi. Mex, has started for the expositionA General Gutierrez is special commissioner to the exposition
 and was appointed by President Diaz as
 his representative. It is not known
 whether President Diaz will visit At
 lanta. There is law in Mexico prohibit
 ing the chief executive from leaving the
 country during his term of office, but the
 president may find some way of evading the law on this special occasion.
 The exposition is now complete and ready for the visitors Last night for
 the first time 1t was ablaze with lights '
 The woman's building will be opened
 with formal ceremonies Monday. A
 splendid programme will be presented.
 Speeches will be made by Mrs Joseph Thompson, president of the woman's S
 board, Col. John Temple Graves and an
 ode will be read by Mrs. Maude Ohl of the Constitution.
 There will be a rich programme next
 week. The Georgia Bar association will hold a convention and be addressed by
 Judge Hornblower of New York. the national mining convention will meet, the Texas and Missouri press associations will be here and there will be two women's congresses.
 The Mexican Village company will ask the directors of the exposition to give
 one of their bull fighting exhibitions. This exhibition is for the purpose of giv- ing the agents of the society for the prevention of cruelty to animals a,chance of deciding whether such exhibitions
 would be cruel. There will be no bull fight

NO MORE LIEUTENANT-GEN G ENERALS The Title Will Expire With the Retirement
 of Genernl Scbofie1d


 Washington, Sept. 27-The rank of lieutenant-general of the army expires with the retirement at noon Sunday of John McAllister Schofield, he then having attained the age limit of 64 years. This title was revived in favor of General Schofield by special act of congress last February and had previously been be- slowed but three times-on Grant, Sher- man and Sheridan. By reason of this extinction of title Major-General Miles, as senior officer of that rank, will probably become the major-general commanding the army but the retirement will not, as is usual in such cases, promote any junior officer until the successor of General Schofield has been named. The orders issued from army headquarters will probably be by direction of the secretary of war. The course was followed when General Sheridan died. when for nine days, until General Schofield was desig- mated to command, orders were issued by the direction of the secretary of war.

sentence will be passed by Judge T. R. Roulhac next Saturday and the date fixed for execution. This was the first death verdict rendered by a Lauderdale county jury for many years.
 The state was represented by Solicitor A. H. Carmichael and. Hon. John B. Weatherly. Jr. the defendant by Hons. H. c. Jones, John T. Ashcraft and Cu- ther Smith, all able attorneys. The ne- gro's defense amounted to naught. Not a single witness for the defendant was examined. He did not make any state ment himself. s
 The history of the case is as follows: The murder was committed on Sunday night, April 7 1895. near, Rogersville, in this county. Foster had a warrant for Brown on a frivolous charge and with several companions went to a negro cab in where Brown was thought to be to make the arrest. They approached the cabin and knocked at the door, which the occupants refused to open. Foster inquired for Will Brown, saying he had papers for him and the door would have to be opened Then the command was obeyed and Foster walked into the house and struck match to search the room. When the light flashed Brown emptied the contents of double barreled shot gun into Fosters body, killing him in- stantly. These facts were established in the court room during the trial.

figures were reached by a withdrawal for export at New York of $1 ,500,0 900.
 Since the present export gold move
 ment began on July 13 last there have
 been withdrawn from the United States treasury $32, 450, 900 in gold, all of which, with the exception of less than $1 00O,
 has been sent to Europe. The total ex- ported gold exceeds this figure, as some
 gold, and especially the gold bullion ex-
 ported, was furnished by the banks of
 New York During the same period god
 was furnished by the syndicate and by
 the New York national banks and others
 to the amount of $15, ,325000 The figures
 to which the treasury gold reserve has
 now been reduced by incessant exports are lower than since April 90 last, on
 which date they were stated at $91 PAT IA Under the syndicate agreement gold was then to be paid into the treasury, and from that date the reserve increased up to June 29, when it attained it's maximum heighth for this year, standing at $1O7.- 512,360. From that time the gold reserve has gradually declined until today's fig ures were reached.
 Treasury officials decline to discuss the prospects of further gold shipments as
 the situation is very much mixed. While no official information can be obtained on the subject, the belief Is entertained that the national banks of New York may come further to the relief of the treasury next week and strengthen the gold re- serve by $10,000 GOO or so Government
 officials are encouraged to believe that within month the number of commer- cial bills that will be on the market as
 the result of the export of American oe-
 reals and cotton will turn the tide of
 exchange and stop gold exports for some
 time to come. The situation, however,
 is so kaleidescopic that no one here
 whose opinion is worth quoting will ex- press an opinion for publica tiOn.

AMULTITy $ SJF CONFLICTING CLAIMANTS

Washington, Sept. 27.-The Mora draft has been paid and the money is now sub ject to the order of Secretary Olney. On Sunday, September 2, the Spanish minis ter, Dupuy de Lome, gave the draft on the Spanish fiscal agents to Acting Secre- tary Adee the time for it's delivery, ac- cording to the dema nds made by Secreta- ry Olney expiring September 15, which date happened to fall on Sunday. Sec retary Olney returned from his vacation Monday and took charge of the case. The secretary, it is understood, forward ed the draft to New York for transmits sion to London on the first steamer, and the prompt way in which it was paid shows that there has been no attempt at diplomatic delay in settling the account.
 This afternoons cable to Secretary O. ney announced that the draft was paid today, and that the net proceeds, $l444,- 900 in gold, is placed to the credit of the secretary of state or sub-trea surer of the United States al New York. It now re- mains for the secretary to distribute the sum among persons interested and this seems to bc task of some difficulty, ow- ing to the many assignments of claims that have been made extending over a period of twenty-five years, and having passed through the hands of numerous attorneys, 1t is to be expected that there would be more or less of a conflict be- tween claimants. Just what the secre- tary will. do has not yet been determined. Two expert clerks have been at work some time docketing these assignments and getting them in shape and their task is not completed by any means. When all the known assignments have been ar ranged the department will still be una ble to say that no more exists.
 Meanwhile one suit in injunction has been begun and others are threatened It has been suggester that inasmuch as all these conflicting assignments, grow ing out of the 40 per cent set apart for at torneys and other expenses, there is no reason why Mora who gets the remain ing 60 per cent, and who is the chief ben4 efclary, should not be promptly paid his share, although he might be required to give an indemnity bond. This is merely suggestion however, and may be ig- nored entirely by the secretary.
 With the threatening suits impending a prominent official this afternoon made another suggestion, which was that an invitation be sent all known claimants to meet In conference and settle their claims amicably otherwise the final dis tribution would have to drag it's weary way through the courts.

his travels through many states where he had been, Nearly every member of the body had a word to say on the re- port of the secretary before it was finally disposed of. Luke had made the charge that through some of the states he had travelled he had been forced to pay his ex- penSes, and 1t seemed to be the object of the delegates to have him enpmerate these states. After a lengthy discussion the report was finally adopted.

Bradstreet's Review.

New York; Sept 27.-Bradstreet' to- morrow will say:
 The striking features of the week are Increased demand for money east and west, the maintenance of the widespread and active demand for iron and steel and the further upward movement of the price of raw cotton. together with ad- Vances in flour. wheat and wool. Sud den changes in the weather affecting d wide expanse of territory have made gen eral trade irregular, but reports from the sections unfavorably affected are in part offset by the stimulation of demand for certain staples in other portions of the country The improved demand for funds continues a feature of the money market at Boston, New York. Chicago, St Louis and at minor centers. Inquiry among bankers at cities referred to re- veas a better demand from all classes of mercantile borrowers.
 Higher prices for foreign wools In Lon don have compelled domestic manufac- turers to pay more for raw material. At present quotations foreign wools in do- mestic markets can be sold abroad at a profit Trade in light weight woolens is unsatisfactory, and owing to the high price and strength of cotton caution is being exercised in buying cotton goods. The south is more bullish on cotton and the continued evidences of q short crop appear to have at last compelled recog- milton abroad
 General business with the south has shown improvement as Memphis. Nash vile. Atlanta and Birmingham Demand for funds there is improving and all that appears is needed Is freer movement of cotton.
 There were 9299 merca ntile failures in the United States during the past nine months. as reported to Bradstreet's, only fourteen more than in the like period of last year, which coincidence is parall led by the total amounts of assets and lia- If fo or hainO substantially the same S in like period one year ago. The feature of the failure record for the nine months lies in the rel- atively large number reported in the first quarter of tbe year. since which time totals have fallen off from week to week very sharply Business failures in New England have increased notably. as com pared with year ago. while those of tho south have increased about as much There are more failures reported from the western states this yeay than the last, while In the northwest and on the Pacific coasts there are fewer.
