To Stop the Wheels al Night.

The meeting of the Southern Cotton
Spinners' Association at Charlotte, N,
o., on the 10th instant, is of unusual
Importance to the cotton mills of the
South. Some measures are to be
adopted to curtait the production Of
yarns by reducing the hours of labor.
The association hopes to stop nigh,
work in yarn mills altogether. One Of
the board of governors says that unless
the mills now running at night agree
to discontinue the practice, the othe.
mills advertise that they run only in
the day time anafmake more uniform
class of goods than is possible to pro.
duce at night. R. S. Reiuhardt. g
prominent mill man, said, Friday.
that the mills are in better condition
than they were three weeks ago, bui
the depression is hardly likely to be
relieved until the production is cur.

An Editor Assaulted.

A London dispatch says: While
+ Henry Labouchere, the editor of Truth
and radical member of parliament, was
on his way from his residence to the
house of commons Friday a young man
accosted him and struck him several
blows with horsewhip. It was re-
ported at first that the assault arose
from the charges Mr.. Labouchere
brought against some of the. people
connected with the Transvaal raid, but
later it developed that the assailaut of
Mr.. Labouchere is the son of the Rev.
George Brooks, otherwise known as
The Prince of Begging Letter Wri-
tiers, whose doings were exposed in
the columns of Truth.

One who claims to know says it is
a peculiar thing that one a ride a
bicycle in the sun for hours without
the air in the tires expanding to an
extent that will burst or strain the
inner tube; yet, if a cycle is placed
against a foot-path and allowed to
rest quietly for a quarter OF an hour,
the chances are that a bursted or
strained tire will be the result. When
resting'in hot summer weather, eye
lists should always place the wheels
under cover, or, If not they should be
slightly debated.

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 24-Our wheat mar
ket opened weak and lower this morning, in
sympathy with Chicago, which, in turn,
lower in sympathy with Liverpool. First
Liverpool cables quoted wheat at ed lower
per Genital on all futures and markets gen.
orally quiet. Berlin was reported as fiat
at decline of 1 mark. Paris was reported
as quiet These items. together with faVora-
Bile reports of the growing crops, rather
dampened speculation on the long side.
peaceful solution of the Cretan question also
had quieting effect on all speculative ven
lures. Commercial gossip was very meager
because of the inactivity prevailing at all
wheat centers. One notable feature of the
day was the strength shown in New York,
which led to the belief that something IA
vorable would develop later, but up to noon
no news of any improvement in the export
trade received.
Second cables advised that Liverpool had
gained I'D from the opening but closing
bles quoted a net loss of Nd for the day.
These lower cables show the effects of
probable peace and the weakness of our
markets Of yesterday on this side. The fact
that the worlds shipments are only one-half
OF the weekly requirements of England and
europe, and it's effect on the Liverpool mar
ket, is better understood when we realize
that the previous surplus shipments amount
to over q, OOO, 600 Blu, while the draughts upon
1t by this shows only amount yet to be but
one-haH OF that sum. New York advised
that exporting houses sold May options in
moderate way. European crop conditions
are nearly all favorable, except those of
France, which for the present is far from
good. Closing cables quoted Berlin ~ marks
lower and Paris 20 confines lower. Liverpool
spot wheat I'D lower. Clearances from the

wheat and -four
