Increased Railroad Earnings.
From the Birmingham News DEM.

The increase was largest in the south,
no other section of the country excepted,
and the next greatest In the southwest.
The difference between the showing of the
lines Of these two sections and those else
where is very marked, too, indicating a
bigger improvement in business in the
south than in any other part of the coun-
try. Railroad earnings and bank clear
ings both show that the southern states
are to-day leading in increased commerce.

CURRENT COMMENT.
Wants to Fight Somebody.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem'

Ex-President Harrison having paid no
attention to the challenge of Senator Till
man of South Carolina for joint debate,
that disputatious parsonage has issued
challenge ito all comers' He is aching
for verbal scrimmage with somebody.
Some dabster in the art of vituperation
ought to accommodate him as a matter
of polite attention. Else he may go away
from Philadelphia dissatisfied with it's
hospitality.

AS we expected the Arkansas republic
cans are saying that their vote in that
state was kept down by fraud. 1t is an
easy matter to cry fraud. Nobody. except
those who want to. win believethat fraud
was committed, however, unless some evil
dence that there was is produced. The
election was very peaeeable one, and
that is good ground for thinking that no
one was deprived Of any of his rights. or
That any fraud was practiced. The big
democratic majority was genuine one.

The republicans are beginning to hedge
on the Maine election. They are now say

plurality of Ss,s7s. II they should have
only 10000 next Monday they would not be
in a position to do much Boosting.

MIR. wrights wild TaIIS.

The statements which Mr.. Wright, the
populist candidate for governor, is report
ed as making relative to the reception he
is receiving in different parts of the state,
are calculated to lead one to believe that
the vast majority of the people are anx-
ious for the day to come when they can
cast their ballots for him. We have no
doubt that Mr.. Wright is very sincere,
but has he not mistaken what few have
told him as an expression of the senu-
ments of the many? We are rather in
clined to think he has. We have watched
the reports of his meetings pretty closely,
and we have not noticed that there is
any great amount OF enthusiasm in his be-
half
He speaks of the heartiness of his re-
ception in Valdosta and repeats what
some one has told him of the great things
that are going to be done for him in Sa-
vannah. AS matter of fact does he think
he made single vote for himself and his
ticket by his visit to either of these places?
II he does what ground has he for think
ing so? Surely there was no great mani
festation of enthusiasm in his behalf in
Savannah. and our report from Valdosta
was not of a character to justify him in
believing that he is going to draw any
considerable strength from the demo-
Gratis. In both places he was accorded a
respectful hearing, but the signs that he
made converts were lacking, and are lack
ing still No doubt in each place there are
few democratsN who have grievances
against Gov. Atkinson. and they may have
given Mr.. Wright the idea that the peo-
pie are turning to him in way calculated
to make his heart glad, but he should re-
member that few men who may be dis
satisfied with the nominations of their
party do not express public sentiment
when they give vent to their feelings by
announcing their appreciation of the can
didates of the opposition.
We have no doubt that Mr. Wright is
very generally liked over the state, be-
cause he is an estimable gentleman, but
because of that fact II doesn't follow that
the majority desire TO see him governor,
or that democrats will forsake their own
party to lend him a helping hand,
Mr.. Tom Watson is Of the opinion that
the number of gold standard democrats in
Georgia and Alabama is much greater
than II is generally believed to be. There
will be a chance to see how large It is ear
ly in November. In the meantime it is but
proper TO say. that dt wouldn't be any
smaller II Mr.. Watson should be put into
Mr.. Sewalrs place on the democratic
ticket we feel quite safe in saying that
II the democrats should make the mis-
take OF accepting him in place of Mr..
sewan the popularity OF the Palmer and
BuckDer ticket in Georgia and Alabama
would be greatly increased.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1896-09-10

Gen. William Cox, secretary of the
United States Senate, who has just re-
turned to Washington from his home in
North Carolina, expresses the opinion
that the populists and democrats of that
state will find a basis for fusion, and
will carry the state FOR Bryan. From the
way Chairman Butler is talking now he
would rather have the populists fuse with
the republicans unless the democrats will
give the populists the vice presidential
nomination. sulL 1t is pretty certain
that Mr.. Bryan is going to get the cleo
toral vote of North Carolina. Mr.. But
Ter will come TO terms when he finds he
isn't as big a man as he thinks he is.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1896-09-10

The New York Tribune says that Mr..
Bryan's proposal to come east and de-
vote some time Ito a tremendous effort
in that section is "eminently satisfac-
tory to republicans" The Tribune and
Mr. Hanna are mighty anxious to get
him out of the west. They are afraid
to have him remain there. Hence the
Tribune's statement that his proposal
ITO come east is eminently satisfac-
tory" If Mr.. Bryan is wise he will not
waste much time in the east. The east
is likely to stand by the gold standard.
The field for him to work in is the middle
west. The more he does in that section
the better it will be for him.

THE WOOL MARKET.

Boston, May 22.-The Boston Com
mercial Bulletin will tomorrow say of
the wool market: The market contin-
ues exceedingly dull. There have been
however, no further concessions i'll
prices. Indeed quarterblood combing
which has been more depressed than
anything else, shows a recovery of 1ac.
this week, that is to say. holders re-
fuse to sell wool longer at lower prices
than it costs laid down. The west IS,
as usual, at clip time, stronger in Its
hopes than the east. There have been
no large sales, but manufacturers at
last are beginning to take cut woods
bought and stored for them in Boston
last fall. The stoppage of wool ma
chinery is estimated at about one
half of the total. The sales of the
week are 1,233,000 pounds domestic and
81 900 pounds foreign against 1,157, 800
pounds domestic and $4,000 pounds for
eign last week and 1,557, 600 pounds do
nestle and SS4, COO pounds foreign for
the same week last year The sales
to date show a decrease of 13,215,613
pounds domestic and 2,544,S00 pounds
foreign from the sales to the same
date in 1895. The receipts to date show
a decrease OF 1919 bales domestic and
an increase of II, ZOO bales foreign.

DANCING EXHIBITION
Given Last Evening at Christensen's
Hall.

GlVcn LAST evening at Cnr1StenSeh
Hall.
Dancing has grown to be a. graceful,
bewildering and beautiful pastime.
Some of the brightest minds have been
brought to bear on the subject and
the result has been to evolve an art
that might reasonably be called a sci
ence. AS an accomplishment, dancing
ranks close to music and sculpture, adj
ding grace and beauty to the person,
giving the subtle charm not seen in
those who dance not at ali, or dance
badly. AS with the study of language,
the best time to teach dancing is
when the child is young-just as you
might train a tree or vine in the shape
and position which would be most de-
Sirable and most delight the senses.
At the exhibition given last evening
by the Christensen Bros. at their hall
one might observe by the graceful
movements of the pupils how
much the dancing art had i'm
proved them. Dainty little misses
and gallant little men courtesied and
bowed and piroueuted about until the
whole was a maze of form, color and
grace.
The entertainment, which was well
attended, began with an old English
nlinuet as danced by Queen Victoria
at Windsor castle in 1874, and was
given by the following named boys and
girls:
Fairchild Sherman, Morice Delovidge,
Aaron Christensen, Wesley Clawson
Catherine Paris, Edith Miller, Clara
Stephens, Dale Jacobs, Sidney Beatie,
Thornley, Haywood, Edna Jacobs, Ha-
Eel Beatie, Miss McCune Ed Williams
oh 10
Dcugall, Chetche Wells, Lulu Keyting
Sybilla Clayton.
Calcium lights enhanced the beauty
of this, and amidst the decorations of
flags, streamers, plants and flowers it
won we'll deserved applause. Following
this, a French minuet OF 1853 was
danced by sweet little Sadie Delovidge
and Lawrence Mcdonald dressed in the
costumes of the time of Louis XIV
Miss Katie Webster, a pupil of Ernest
Nichols, did very clever skipping
rope dance and Masters Sid Beatie and
Dale Jacobs danced a sailors hornpipe
The younger pupils then retired for a
short time while the elder ones per-
formed French gavotte, the following
named persons taking part:
Mamie Homer, Lillian Papworth
Berd Yates, Matte Bywater, Mabel
Harker, Lottie Vincent, O. R. Grow, w
B. Hall, Joseph Mellen, w. Wilding, Il.
Solomon, S. G.. Reed.
Catherine Paris and Edna Jacobs
gave a very dainty skirt dance, and
Edith Miller and charming Lulu Keat-
ing in Japanese costume a graceful and
pretty fan dance. The exhibition came
to close with a comical clowns dance
by Sid Beatle and Aaron Christensen
to the music of the gaiety dance. After
this the floor was given over for a time
to the audience, who joined the festivi-
ties or watched those who did
The exhibition is to be repeated this
afternoon and evening, and is well
worth seeing.

VIEWED BY DUN.

NEW YORK, May Pr G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade, which issues
tomorrow will say:
TIE waiting condition, which to some
people is nothing better than stagnation,
still continues. Bdi there is a difference.
Thousands of orders and contracts are
merely deferred because they can be more
safely given little later. There is moth
ing exciting in the speculative market for
expcf.able products and stories about
damage to wheat having been numerous
but the general belief regarding the future
supply is fairly reflected in the decline of
1.62 cents per bushel. The western re-
Aceipts continue larger, for three weeks,
ISIS. 625 bushels, against 1862, 537 last year,
while Atlantic exports, flour included,
have been only 3,19S 500 bushels for the
same weeks against 4749,674 last year.
The home market fails entirely to re-
spond to short crop stories, for il is known
that western reports indicate a crop ex-
ceeding last years.
II The output of pig iron were always a
reliable barometer of business conditions
IN blast May 1st, according to the Iron
Age, 1888 tons against 1877, 45l April l.
would be convincing. But the increase
Of stocks unSold since January has been
293, 243 tors, and this, deducted from the
output Of furnaces leaves 1855 4S tons
excess Of the actual consumption, because
the stocks of the great steel companies are
not included in the statement Since the
steel billet pool was formed the stocks
nave doubtless increased largely.
There is scarcely any Improvement in
the Ear association has become strong
enough to enable makers of steel billets to
get slightly higher price.
Sales Of wool have been 2,648,2 200 pounds

SEEN ny BRADsrREET,

New York, May 22.-Bradstreet' Re
view OF the week says:
Speculation during the present week
has been even more narrow and more
professional than before. The tone,
however, has on the whole, been stead
Ter. and the apprehensive feeling in re-
gard to the political results as bear
factors accumulates.
That large holders of securities have
lot been affected by the recent hqui-
dation tendency, but that the latter
was confined TO the smaller Selni-pro-
fessional bulls. The exhaustion of sell
ing from this quarter has imposed a
check upon bearish activity on the part
of the room traders, and the absence of
any decided pressure ON the market
has been to less significant than the
total lack of outside interests, commits
sion houses as class being almost
idle London has not been a factor
either way.
Among the incidents of the week is
the news that J. p. Morgan has placed
an option for Sc, 600 oG the new
Northern Pacific prior lien four per
cent bonds with a London banking
syndicate, the belief being that the
securities viii be taken up in the au-
tumn This weeks gold shipments have
been comparatively small, amounting
to $3.50, 900 and in the early part Of the
week IT was understood the special
orders for gold from Germany had
been flied. There seems to be some I'M
certainty about this, however, and the
existence of considerable inquiry for
exchange would in any event tend to
force rates to level at which gold
would move To London, as the record
for many years past shows to be a
normal proceeding at this season
So far as any speculative interest de-
veloped ii was mf My in connection
with the manipulation Of some OF the
industrials.

one of the most plainly dressed and in
conspicuous men on the floor. He used
to walk unconcernedly about the ex-
change on the most exciting days, never
looking except to give slight signal

When he went broke he would dis
