She further states that about the same date she obtained loan of $1000 from the respondent, to secure which she and her husband, now de- ceased, executed their note for S2O00, bearing per cent interest, and further secured the loan with the fifty shares of stock and a mortgage on thelr nome stead The bill states that the building and loan association delivered to the complainant $9S0 and that that sum was all they obtained of said loan of 5000.
 The bill further claims that con- plainants are chargin 8 per cent in- terest on s2000 which, it is alleged, Is usurious and illegal.

Contractor Shepherd Talks of the Alabama Building -Woman's Department.
 The Cotton Mill.

1 ATr. r. c. Shepherd, contractor for the , Alabama building at the Atlanta exposi- tion, was in the city yesterday. He re- ports work On the building progressing satisfactorily, the only drawback being his inability to get lumber as fast as needed His trip to Birmingham yester- day was to hurry up the shipments of lumber. He says that work on the Ala bama building is considerably in advance of that on most of the other state build ings, and he is confident he will be ready to turn the building over to the board of managers by the date agreed upon in the contract.
 County Exhibits.
 Several counties of the state will have creditable exhibits in the Alabama build ing, among them being Morgan, Etowah, Cullman, Madison, Limestone and Dal- las. Mobile will also have a splendid exhibit, and the lumber and textile in- terests will be represented with hand some and attractive displays.
 Woman's Department.
 Space in the gallery, with the exception of the school exhibit on the right and left of both entrances, has been assigned to the ladies. and they will have ample space in which to make a magnificent ex- hibt. The board of managers will con- tribute out of the general fund amounts necessary to meet the expenses of the eX- hibit to be gotten up by the ladies, and the board will cooperate with them in arranging it.
 The Cotton Mill.
 Capt. James F. Webb yesterday noti- fled Mir Cotton and associates of Ches- ter, Pa, who will build the cotton mill al First avenue and Eighteenth street, that all matters were ready to close the deal. MT. Cotton will be here early this week, and work on the mill will probably be- gin in a few days.

JAPAN,s GRIEVANCE.
Feeling That She aas Been Treated I'm

Feeling That She aas Been Treated I'm
generously by Foreign Correspondents.
VIsToRIA, b. c. January 1.-THE
steamer Tacoma brings advices from
Toxic up to December %. The absorb
ing topic in Japan at that time was the
disclosure regarding the conduct OF the
japanese troops at Port Arthur. The
earliest detailed accounts were brought
from the seat OF war by four foreign
newspaper correspondents. The result
is that the people look upon the foreign
press as their enemy.
Correspondents are condemned not for
telling everything that they saw, how
ever appalling, but for abuses of their
privilege, such as would not be prac-
ticed ID any western country, and for
perversiOn of the truth calculated TO
bring uumerited shame upon the Japan
csc nation. The abuse OF privilege is
held to be that these visitors sOughtand
received permission TO follow the army
for the purpose of supplying their
journals at home with authentic
war news, and although knowing that
certain newspaper published In
Yokohama under extra-territoriai
or OtectlOn, is unfriendly 10 this coun-
try, they have nevertheless FASTENED 20
supply 10 with material for working
harm in its own way. II was not, the
critics said, to enable them to afford as
sistsuce and announcement 10 an ene-
my of Japan, on her own soil, that
strangers were given opportunity 10
pursne their avocston unanimously.
The careiessneSs alleged is found In
such assertions as that al entire peace
iul population was mastered, when 1t
is now indisputably proved that
the peaceful population aed be-
fore the attack and has since
largely returned 10 It's haoita-
ton. the persons slaughtered having
been mainly Chinese soldiers in disguise.
The psrversion OF truth is said to lie in
statements like that which represents
correspondents as deserving the army in
body because they were horrihed by
the spectacles Of bloodshed aud com
peIled TO leave their duty because they
could not countenance by their presence
the wickednesS Of Japan embodied IN
the crimes of her army, when in fact
they came away by prearrangement TO
most their letters, having previously an
nounced their intention to start as soon
rs Port Arthur was taken.

MONOPOLY SECURES A MONOPOLY.
sr Louis, Mo, January lit is
learned here that E. 5. Gardner q Son,
Of Saundersonvile, Tenn, have relin-
onished their control Of the foreign bet
ting privileges of the various race
tracks of the country 10 the Western
Union Telegraph Company. The Gard
nars have for over a decade had aoso-
Int control OF the foreign betting priv
ilsges on all Western race tracks. They
supplied all the pool rooms and foreign
hooks in America with the official bet
ting from every track on the Western
circuit. Naturally with this monopoly
enormous profits have been realized
and for that reason racing men DO not
believe the Gardeners gave up their mo-
popoly voluntarily.
