Phillips Thompson, editor OF the Eyen-
ing Star OF Toronto, Canada, who is vis-
iting the larger cities of the country in
behalf OF a religious society, in relation
TO running of street cars on Sundays,
called upon chief OF police Reuben r..
Baker this morning and asked him IL he
thought that the running of street cars
In Providence did not encourage and in
crease drunkenness in Providence on
Sundays. The chief told Mr.. thompson
that the running OF cars in Providence
had a great tendency to decrease drunk
ennes In Providence Sundays, but IL he
wanted some interesting facts and figures
he had perhaps better call upon chief OF
police Adams OF East Providence. Mr..
Thompson inquired where he could lind
an East evidence car, but what he
learned from MIR. Adams is not known.

Rhodes Fully InfOr med
About the Raid.
Cannot Be Acquitted of Re-
SpOnsibility for 1t.
Finding of the Special Committee
of the Investigation.

CAPETowN, July 25.-Tbe House OF
Assembly has unanimously adopted re-
port of the select committee on the sub
ject OF the jameson raid on Johannes
burg. The report finds that Mr.. Cecil
Rhodes. ::who..at the time was premier OF
Cape Colony, was fully acquainted with
the preparations for the raid, and that
Mr.. Alfred Belt, o director OF the British
South Africa Company, DIR. jameson
and DR.. ther ford Harris, also director
OF the British South Africa Company
were active promoters of the raid. The
report further declares that there is no
evidence that Mr.. Rhodes intended that
the PItsani force should invade the
Transvaal uninvited, but that at the same
time there was an absence OF any per-
emptory command from Mr.. Rhodes
forbidding the RAID. Rhodes and Harris,
il is alleged, drafted a telegram contain
ing such prohibitory command, but the
message was never dispatched.
With these facts in.view, the report
says, the committee cannot acquit Mr..
Rhodes OF responsibility. The report
further alleges that all the funds for the
raid were contributed by the British
South African Company, and with the
knowledge OF the London office, the
money being aftcrwsrd refunded by Mr..
Rhodes. In closing, the committee say
that they are forced to the conclusion
that the conduct OF Mr.. Rhodes was not
consistent with his duty as Premier OF
Cape Colony.

share.

Germ TO be conducted in Providence and

New York, July o6.--R. G.. Dun & Co,
weekly review of trade says: The week

heavy outgo OF gold and the fall of the

Business of all kinds has been consider
ably affected by the monetary condi-
tions, and Is slower TO improve.
The produce markets have been seri-
ously depressed lard making the lowest
quotations on record, corn falling TO 30
cents. wheat TO CLIO cents and cotton to
7.l2 cents. There has been a slight re-
covery in corn. 10th In cotton, and 1
cent in wheat, hut the main cause of low
prices remains, namely: Prospects OF
large crops, with heavy stocks on hand.
Nothing appears of encouragement In
the inGustriea and there has been con.
siderable further decline in the work
ing force. The oloTng OF iron furnaces
continues Textile industries are rapidly
reducing working force as the prospect
for future demand does not grow clearer
and while prices are nominally un-
changed. Il is because there is little
chance OF business CT present. Sales OF
wool at the chief markets for the week
have been the smallest ever known.
Prices do not nominally change. but are

THE REGISTER IS BACK.
It Makes Announcement That It Will Support the Ticket and Hopes to "Go
 to Victory"

Mobile, July 1S.-The Register will say tomorrow that it has made an earnest appeal in support of principles, but the response from the south is: Those prin- ciples are true. Nevertheless we must sustain the party organization. It is our only defense against republicanism. One condition overshadows the ancient tenets of democracy. The white mans party is opposed by the black mans par ty. The conflict is always on and we must meet the opposing force wherever it presents itself and must seize upon whatever weapons present themselves to hand-Greeleyism in 1872, Altgeldism in 1896. It is not with us here question of upholding the principles for the guid- ance of the general government but such only as will be of use in sustaining the white race in the south against the ever present and ever retroactive influ- ence of a black and uncivilized race. $ Democracy means for us white mans rule. Republfcanism means for us the rule of the negro. The south has accepted the ticket We go with our people, and we go, we hope, to victory.

 MT. Hubbard is a son of the president of the company, and he and MT. Beattie, who is the company's superintendent, have been in the south, to be more def1- mite Alabama and Georgia, for two weeks looking over the ground and col lecting informa tion, the company propos- ing to establish a southern branch so as to be nearer the base of supplies of raw material and fuel, escape the rigorous climate of the north, and try southern labor. 4..l
 The data collected will be submitted to the other officers of the company, the place seeming to offer the most advan- ta ges will be selected and further nvesti- gated, and then the location will be de- cided upon.
 Messrs. Beattie and Hubbard were taken in hand yesterday and shown over the city, and it's many advantages faith fully pointed out by number or leading citizens. thev saw and learned, and admitted that they had been so favorably impressed that. while they visited other places only once. they had been here twice, the nrst visit having been not long since.

Interest Deepening-Take Your Basket and
 Go Today.

It is in beau- tiful grove, with abundance of shade and spring water. During the past week three services a day have been held Large crowds attend during the day, and from 1900 to 1500 at. night. Additional seats for 800 more were placed yester- day. At the close of the morning ser vice yesterday 145 persons had professed faith in Christ. Among these are some of our best citizens.
 Rev. R. c. George of Gadsden is as- sisting Dr. Wells. MT. Suspicion of Chattanooga has charge of choir of fif- ty voices.
 Preachers and 1aymen of all denomina- tions are made welcome and their help asked for. It Is hoped that many fam flies from the city and surrounding country will go today prepared to re- main until after the night services. Garry your lunch and enjoy the day. The North Birmingham dummy will car ry you within two blocks of the tent. Round trip 10 cents, day and night.
