The Prohibition Election Yester-
day the Hottest Ever
Known.
ANTS WON BY FIVE HUNDRED.
Temperance Lectures at the Polling Places.
Sensational Features Numerous Bar
room Men Spent Money.

Columbus, Aug. 2S.-The most ex-
citing election in the history of Mus
cogee county occurred today.
The fight for and against prohibit
tion has been waged unremittingly
and at times fiercely in every district,
and the issue eliminated today in a
battle of ballots that was rich in sem
sationsl features.
All day long the "prohibs" and the
'antis" have been contesting every
inch of ground. Rallies have been
held on street corners and enthusiastic
temperance lecturers have inveighed
against the liquor traffic at the polling
places.
The actual vote from all districts is
not yet known, but it is certain that
the county has gone wet by as much
as 500 majority.
The election has been a warm one,
and the victory Of the ants has not
been achieved without much hard
work and expenditure of money.

A Chicago Inventor Solves Most Important
Problem.


Chicago, Aug. 2S.--The most diff
cult problem in railroad operation,
how to communicate with a moving
train by telegraph, has been solved
by young Chicago inventor, George
v. Trott, former telegraph operator,
who has devised system which will
shortly be put in operation on the
Pennsylvania railroad by which every
train on the line is in constant COM
munication with the station next
ahead, and when desired with the
train dispatcher or any telegraph sta
tion.
The device, which the railway en-
gineers declare will reYolutionize

Paine, Murphy & Co.'s Grain Letter.

GalHe, Murphy " CO.'S Gram Letter.
Savannah, Aug. 2S.-The market
has lost ground during the past week
to the extent of over 10 cents per
bushel. Fluctuations, as the range
indicates, have been violent, which has
materially reduced the trade and in
fluenced it to coarse grains and pro-
visions. The exciting closing last
Saturday aDd further large advance
which many expected, but which did
not materialize in the December de-
livery, induced liquidation by holders,
who were anxious to clinch profits,
just as soon as the market displayed
signs of weakening. Advlces for the
most part have not been bearisb, but
prices have been inflated to such a
degreee as to make the buying of
wheat around the dollar mark rather
dangerous, then again, the advance to
that figure seems rather to have been
fully discounted all the strong news
and conditions, and areaction is more
than could have been expected.

GREAT Big DEAL
TN WATER FRONT.
The Southern Pine Company Buys
the Entire Cooks Mill
Property.
FIVE VALUABLE DEEP WATER LOTS.
Sixteen Thousand Dollars Paid for the Prep
erty-Will Build New Wharvss-0ns of
the Biggest Items of the Year.

A most important transfer of Brnns-
wick wharf property and water 'front.'
age has just been consummated, where
by the site of one of Brunswick's old
est enterprises has passed into the
hands of large lumber firm, which
has been doing considerable shipping
from this port.
The Southern Pine company has
purchased the entire wharf and water
front property formerly owned by
Cook Bros. & Co., the site of the we'll
known and long established Cooks
mill.
The property is very valuable as a
shipping terminus, having a splendid
depth of water, and admirably located
for the use to which it has always
been put, and for which 1t will be
used, though much more extensively,
in future under its new ownership.
The property lies on the west side
of Bay street and includes the entire
water front block between London
and Prince streets, being known on
the map of the city as Old Town water
lots 81, 80, 80, "a and So. 1t has
water frontage of 400 feet, or 80 feet
to the lot.
On the property is the old Cooks
mills and fixtures, which has been in
operation for twenty-five years.
The property was bought from
Boston parties and A. Kaiser 6 Bro.
of this city The price paid was $780,
900.
1t was to close this trade that Presl-
dent John j. McDonough and Secre-
tary Stlllwell of the Southern Pine
company, came to the city on Thurs
day. THE TIMES noted their visit,
and the fact that it meant big item
of good news. The prediction has
been handsomely verified. The trade
is closed and the new owners will at
once proceed to improve it.
They will probably tear down the
old mill and the old store building
which now stands on the property,
and erect new and modern office
building. They will also build new
wharves along the entire extent of
the water front.
This will give the Southern Pine
company a most valuable piece of
property. Their purchase indicates
that they intend to increase the
amount of their business through this
port. The Southern Pine company is
a big concern and when it buys prop
erty of such an extent, it means BUSH
ness and no mistake. The company now
occupies the Whaley 6 Tison wharf.
1t may be stated in this connection
that the report recently published to
the effect that large Savannah firms
intended making large business, VEN
lures in Brunswick, which was indus
triously denied by the Savannah news
papers, included this movement of the
Southern Pine company. The news
paper forecast is thus confirmed in
one Of its particulars-and the other
combinations will come out later.
The Southern Pine company's pur-
chase of 45O feet of Brunswick water
front is one of the best and most en-
couraging news items of the year.

Savannah, Aug. 2S.-Futures today
closed at net decline of from ; to l
point which was rather better than
expected. The very limited demand
for spots, however, were disappoint-
ment, only 1900 bales. This limited
demand for actual cotton reflects the
bearish feeling which prevails abroad
and spinners are evidently disposed
to hold off IN anticipation of being
able to secure their supplies at lower
figure little later on. Our market
opened steady at point decline to 5
advance. There was a fair volume of
buying orders in the market for exc
cutlon on the opening, which had the
OBJECT of causing a slight improve
ment from the opening level.

STRIKERS IN A PARA DE.

Wheeling, w. Va, Aug. 28.-Today
is Labor Day in Wheeling, and it is
made in reality a demonstration in
favor of the striking coal miners. In
the parade, which moved at 10 O'Clock,
the miners were given the head of the
column, and there were over thou
sand in line, with representatives from
all the mining districts Of the upper
Panhandle and Eastern Ohio. At the
picnic on the state fair grounds are
booths where help for the miners can
be given, and many dollar ordinarily
spent for good cheer is going to the
miners fund. 1t is needed, too, for
destitution is staring the strikers IN
the face, and many are hungry.
The output of coal in the Kanawha
valley has been cut to almost nothing,
but in the New river there is an
increase, nearly all strikers having
gone to work today.
