AN IMPORTANT MEETING.
The Southern Textile Manufacturers
Association to Hold Convention.


The Southern Textile Manufacturers
Association to Hold a Convention.
Mr.. Geo. A. Mebane, Of Ashcville,
represents North Carolina on the com
mittee that has called a meeting ip At
lanta Wednesday, May 18th, of all
Southern textile manufacturers. The
important subjects for the considera-
ton of the convention are suggested
az follows:
PRICE AND PRODUCTION.
The present Generalization in prices
could be checked and the market great
II stimulated by limiting production
for time. Concerted action Ia vitality
necessary to effect this result. This
project demands immediate and vigor-
Gus attention.
4 BUREAU or BTATISTICS AND IN
FORMATION.
Such bureau. if properly maintain
ed, would be Of great benefit TO the
manufacturers. Reports OF stock era
hand and other information supplied
monthly would be tablulated and is
sued to members, thus preventing the
accumulation of certain grades OF
stock. Valuable statistica regarding
foreign markets, etc, could be gather
ed by this bureau. This work would
be in the hands Of the secretary.
EXPORTS.
The direct export OF Southern mans
featured goods, especially TO the Span
ish- American republics, should be en-
couraged, and steps taken to promote
the interest Of manufacturers along
this line.
GENERAL BENEFITS.
The members of an organization of
the character suggested would cooper
ate regarding agents and brokers,
black-listing irresponsible and dishon-
est parties and regulating commits
sions. The influence OF the associa-
ton would guarantee an equitable ad-
justment OF freight rates, both local
and long distance. An exchange of in
formation regarding labor would often
prevent the employment and trans
portation OF families OF worthless
operatives. Great Benefit would result
from better acquaintance among the
manufacturers, made possible by the
annual meetings.

Each Other In Their Enorts.
While the duke and duchess Of MARI
borough were entertaining royalty at
Blenheim, Mr.. Astor was entertaining
royalty in London, and, it is said, the lat
ter's entertainment went off with the most
eclat. Blenheim castle is so big that the
guests wandered rather aimlcssly about
Some really lost themselves in the long
passages and suites of rooms. Such a
wealth Of flowers has seldom been seen,
and the palace is decorated with pictures,
tapestries and china worth the proverbial
kings ransom.
The duchess bedroom is beautiful in
deed. The bed is raised on dais and
hraped becomingly with pink brocade
and real point lace, while white skins are
thrown about on the beautifully polished
floor. The toilet things are all gold.
Mr.. Astor's party was only dinner, but
forty-four people were invited. The guests
included the duke of Sake Coburg (the
duke Of Edinburg), Princess Louise and
the Marquis of Lorne. The whole thing
was perfectly done. The dinner table
groaned with plates and was made lovely
with mass Of orchids.

buNRAvEN IN ANOTHER ROW

Opposes His Opinion Against Two
Adverse Decisions.
Lord Dunraven has been having, recently
q characteristic quarrel with committee
Of the Calshot Yacht Club. His twenty
rater Audrey won race at Calshot last
August, but subsequently was disqualified
by the sailing committee, on protest of
ground Of irregular entry. Lord Dunraven,
Of course, flo1ted the committees decision,
arguing in a long letter that the disqualifi-
cation was utterly unjust. The matter
was then carried before the council of the
Yacht Racing Association, which was
favored with . still longer epistle from
Lord Dunraven, in support Of his appeal.
The council unanimously upheld the decis-
ion of the Calshot committee, but as Lord
Dunraven, apparently, was still uncon-
WINGED, the committee has now, in its own
defense, ordered the publication of the
whole correspondence. 1t is a typical ex-
ample Of Lord Dunraven's controversial
methods in the point of his obstinate re-
fusal to acknowledge his obvious error.

legation In London, and who was suisse
quently released on the demand of the
Marquis of Salisbury, has published an

The Bessemer Steel Association, pOpu-

emily gone to pieces. A Cleveland manu-
facturer who uses steel billets, received
from concerns which have been members
of the association word that they were act
ing independently and would like to SUBJ
nit their prices. He received three letters,
one of which said that the firm sending it
had withdrawn from the pool and could
now make better prices. The other two
merely said the senders were independent
and wished to be considered when future
orders were made. A telegram was re-
ceived to the same effect. The recipient
Of these communications said he had no
doubt that all consumers of steel had been

Farmer Badly Frozen.

Rasmus Christensen, Buffalo County
settler, has been taken to Kimball in de-
plorablc condition as result Of terrible
experience. He left neighbours place
about O'Clock Monday night for home,
but got lost and wandered about on the
open prairie until 10 O'Clock next forenoon,
when he made his way back to the place
he had left. German socks and overshoes
which covered his feet were entirely worn
away and his feet, besides being frozen,
were terribly cut and torn by the snow and
ice. Amputation will undoubtedly be nee
essary to save the unfortunate mans life,

CONGRESS IN SESSION
CALLED TOGETHER At NOON ON
MONDAY.
Reading Of President Clevcland'k
Annual Message Is Listened to
with the Closest Attention by tho
Members-Other Items.
Congress in Session.

The assembling of the Fifty-fourth
congress for the closing session Monday
was one of unusual brilliancy and interest.
The day was all the more interesting be-
cause of the hard fought political battle
waged during the recess. The weather
was perfect. The throngs who streamed
into the galleries to witness the opening
ceremonies formed an unorganized civic
pageant.
The second session of the Fifty fourth
congress was called to order at noon, the
senate by Vice President Stevenson and
the house by Speaker Reed.
The senate chamber looked like con-
servatory, many desks bearing superb
floral decorations. Exactly at noon TIL
vice president entered the chamber. Going
to the desk of the presiding officer he gave
the tap which brought the senate to order.
Blind Chaplin Millburn delivered an i'm
pressive invocation. The roll call showed
seventy senators present. Senator Sher-
man and Senator Smith, Democrat Of New
Jersey, were appointed senate members to.
join committee to wait on the president.
A recess wa, then taken till p. IN.
Further recesses of thirty and fifteen
minutes were necessary before Senator
Sherman appeared and announced that
the president would communicate with the
senate in writing. Secretary Prudence ap-
peared and presented his message, which
the secretary of the senate, Gen. Cox, at
once began reading. 1t was followed with
much interest throughout.
Mustapha Bey, Turkish minister, and his
secretary left the diplomatic gallery i'm
mediately after the reading of that portion.
of the message as to prospective action to
stop Turkish indignities which have
shocked the civilized world.
The house presented very animated
scene. Members gathered early and talked
over the events of the late campaign
There were no demonstrations of any char
acter. As the hands of the clock pointed
to IL Speaker Reed quietly entered the hall
and assembled the r0strum. With sharp
crack of the gavel he called the house tC
order. Rev. Mr.. Cowden Of Michigan, the
blind chaplain of the house, offered SIM
pie but impressive prayer. The roll call
showed the presence of 81 members. A
message from the senate that it was in ses.
sion was received
Pages were scurrying about carrying to
the seats Of members flowers and floral
pieces from constituents or admiring
friends. But in the midst of this general
rejoicing there was an air of sadness as
the members glanced at the black pail
which covered the conspicuous desk Of the
late ex-Speaker Crisp, Democratic leader.
On it were some cut flowers, and his por-
trait in the lobby in the rear of the house
was also wreathcd with Gala lilies. The
ex-speakcr's death east shadow over the
whole house, and was especially apparent
on the Democratic side, where his loss will

1t is once more reported from the east
that the entire HOmestake and associated
properties have been sold, and the price set
is $S, 100000. The sale is said to include
the mines and mills at Lead, Terraville
and Central, of the Homestake, Deadwood-
Terra and Highland Companies. The pur-
chasers are said to be the British Explora-
ton Company, who have been reported for
some months as anxious to get the mines.
But Judge Moody, attorney for the Home
sta re at Deadwood, says there is nothing
in the sale. The owners of the valuable
property adjacent to the Homestake, who
recently bonded them for from Q to IL
months to an agent from Sioux City, are
now OF the opinion that he was working in
the interest of the company that has been
looking for the latter.

BAD TEXAS WRECK.


Two Engineers, Two Firemen and a
Brakeman Killed.
A head end collision between two through
freights ON the Southern Pacific road near
.Waelder, Texas, Sunday morning, resulted
in the death Of two engineers, two firemen
and q brakeman. The crew Of the east
bound freight went to sleep while waiting
on bliud siding and, on waking, thinking
that the second section Of the through west
bound freight was the third section of
the train, took to the main line. The
weather was foggy and the east bound
freight and the third section Of the west
bound train came together at the bottom of
a sag in the road a few miles from the sid
ing. The dead are:
TIP. Convey, engineer.
w. H. Brown, engineer.
William Holt, fireman.
George Atkins, fireman.

FIND MANY DEFECTIVE PLATES

ing Satisfactory Steel.

United States Has Difficulty i'm Find.
ing Satisfactory Steel.
For many months past the Navy depart
ment of the United States government has
been having more or less difficulty in OBJ
tanning q suitable grade of steel for the con-
struction Of naval vessels, and particularly
at Newport News, where defective plates
have been found in several war vessels.
Possibly the development of the weakness
in the plates may be attributed to the
adoption there of improved methods of
construction, involving the use of Hanged
plates instead of fiat plates connected by
angle rolls, or it may be that the con-
structor in charge at Newport News is
more particular than others as to the quail
ity of the plate he uses, but it is certain he
has rejected and thrown on the hands of
the makers-the Carnegie Company-a an
unusually large number of plates. The
attention Of the steel board has been di-
rected to this subject and consideration is
being given to the question as to whether
it will be necessary to change the system
of inspection at the steel mills or make the
specifications more rigid.

!. The.m0st notable feature Of the Repub-
1ican senate caucus Tuesday, as seen from

who bolted the nomination Of Mckinley
because OF the gold standard platform.
Ihat their absence was intentional il
shown by letter from Senator Dubois,
.xead in the caucus, resigning his position
- SECRETARY Of the caucus and as secretary
q the steering committee. There were
only Z few short speeches. Senator
0nbois' resignation was received without
j. word Of comment. There was no formal
acceptance Of the resignation, but Senator
Wilson was selected to serve in his stead
The. Dingley tarin bill was referred to q
ateexing committee with instructions to in

.that the best policy was to demand the

opinion seemed general that this result is
mt within the range of possibility. Sew

Were given attention.
