PEsSIMIsTIC VIEW.
London Spectator On Probable War
Between Spain and America.

beVWeeH sPaIl aHU AlHeIICo-
London, Oct. 30.-The Spectator takes
a pessimistic view of the situation be-
tween the United States and Spain, and
expresses the opinion that the chances
are in favor OF war (which would
gravely concern England, because OF
the consequent rise in the price of
wheat. and owing to the extent of Brit
tsh. shipping. Dangerous marine ques-
tions in regard to prtvateering. the
neutrality of search and the supply of
munitions would rise. while Spain's in
solvency would involve a grand crash
in banking circles in Paris.
The Spectator also expresses the fear
that the fear Of war existing might
have the same effect upon the strained
situation in Europe as shooting among
gunpoWder barrels"

however, did not expect from 81. % to
81 as other protected employees did. They
were content with less. Placing hemp
on the free list had reduced wages from

gar wool and lumber. He asked for a
duty Of $50 per ton on hemp and so

ically denied. He argued that there

IN BEHALF OF AGENT REID.



Wake Forest, n. G., Jan. 2.-(SpeciaD
-1Ne feel compelled to reply to the arti-
Gle - the column of to-day's paper relative
to rne ''high-handed'' way with which
the agent of the Seaboard Airline, at
this point, has been running things lately.
Mr.. David Oates has made complaint to
the Commission that the agent here
would not allow woman, who held n
second-class ticket, to enter the ladies'
waiting room, because she was not nicely
dressed. Can Mr. Oates substantiate
this statement? ANY one, who is ac-
quainted with the agent In question,
knows that he has too much charity to
mistreat one, just because that one had
on poor clothing. Can Mr.. Oates eX-
plain then, why it is that this agent does
permit a negro female patron Of the road
who is poorly dressed to enter the ladies'
waiting room, when she is the purchaser
Of q frst-class ticket? Mr.. Reid put the
woman in question in the other waiting
room for the reason that the late Maj.
Winder, in his instructions to him. con
cerning these waiting rooms told him to
do so, and that he must allow the female
purchasers Of a first-class ticket to use
the ladies' waiting room, regardless Of
color. Another thing, Mr.. Oates, it seems,
has stated that the bulletin board is
situated inside the freight depot, a place
which causes the patrons much incon-
Yenience and annoyance. and that the
trains are rarely reported, so that one
never knows when they are right, which
causes them to have to ask each time,
whether they are correct. We would like
to say that the bulletin board is in the
most conspicuous place at this station
and is not inside Of any door, also that the
trains are properly marked each day ac-
cording to the train dispatchers' orders
This can be proven. We met one of the
professors of the college to-day and he
remarked, concerning the article Of Mr.
Oates, that he regretted it much, it being
so utterly uncalled for; that he could not
understand his object. Concerning Mr.
Reid, anything which Mr.. Oates has said
or may say, viii have little weight with
those who are acquainted with said Mr.
Reid. r. p WALTERS.

Atlanta. Ga. Jan. 2.-The Journal this

statement from Comptroller Of the Cur
.xency Eckels:
Washington, D. c.. Jan. ?,
The Atlanta Journal;
The bank failures which have occurred
are entirely due to local conditions and
in almost every instance to defects pecu
liar to TIE institutions failing.
This is strikingly so IN the case OF tlle
National Bank at Roanoke, Va, and as
smucb 50 in the failed bank in Texas some
weeks since.
The same may be said Of all the Ma
tional banks failing since November l.
and I imagine the same thing will hold
good in the State and private banking
houses which have ceased to do business
The banking institutions Of the South,
made with mere and there an exception,
a remarkably good showing during the
panic of 1893 and the financial distress
was general and acute. No such condl-
tion now exists, nor will occur upon ths
one hand, while on the other hand, during
the years since then liquidation has gone
on, bad paper has been weeded out, and
the banks are stronger IN cash means
There is no basis for any expectation that
either now or in the future, the South or
any other section of the country will suf-
fer from more than the ordinary num-
Der Of bank failures incident to the accu-
mutation of slow assets and bad methods

any difficulty beyond that due to tho
causes / have stated.
If the attention Of the country could
be directed towards attending to business
affairs In Il business way, undisturbed by
"wars and rumors of wars" and prom
ises of renewed and continued agitations
the country would enter upon an era of
prosperity which in the largest measure
would fall to the lot of the people Of the
South.
The South to-day offers a marvelously
rich field for investment and the capital
is at hand to be invested, but it viii not

runors are everywhere to be met with
an uncertainty as to gaining return for

Immediate needs Of their own country,

ment.

A COUNTESS BURIED ALIVE.

London, Jan. "A special dispatch
from Warsaw says that a painful sensa-
tion has been caused there by the alleged
burying alive Of q prominent society wo-
man, the Countess Helena Polocke, who
died on December %, and who was in
tered on the following day. Persistent
rumors were circulated that the Countess
was not dead, but merely in a state OF
catalepsy, and the family in order to
prove this statement baseless, had the
body exhumed yesterday, when it was
found that it did not bear the appearance
Of a corpse and that there was no sign
Of putrefcation. The body was then re-
moved to the family mansion where it IS
being watched.
