Crockett Courier.
The Courier is opposed to any unjust
criticism Of Joe Savers or HIS candidacy.
This observation is called forth by an Aus
tin special to the Waco Times Herall
which seeks to create the impression that
Mr.. sayeIs o. some of his friends are en-
cturagiag the organization OF an "amalga-
nation ticket with Joe Savers leading 1t
for governor. Such a ticket Is proposed in
German paper published at Austin,
known as the Texas Vorwaertz and edited
by Julius Scheutze. But we have no idea
that Joe Sayers has any connection with or
is in anywise responsible for such a scheme
as the one proposed Mr.. Cranes friends
will accomplish no good by an effort to
identify Mr.. sayers with such mongreI
programme and should disclaim and repu-
date all connection Herewith. We are
supporting Mr.. Crane for governor, but We
know Joe Sayeis well enough to know that
he will not be party 10 or connive at the
floating of such a bastard political mon
strosity as the one named All candidates
have more or less "damphool" friends that
do their favor-tes more harm than good.
and Joe Savers is not an exception. The
ticket suggested is very much after The
type of that hybrid OF which II was eaid
that ut was without pride of ancestry or
hone Of posterity." We are satisfied that
Mr.. scheutze has no authority from MIR.
Savers or his immediate managers to assoc
ciate his name with any combination OF the
Kind named, and any attempt TO couple the
name OF Mr.. Savers with the movement
wil recoil with disastrous results to Mr.
Crane . i 4

Aside from a quiet demand at a few lead

Some slight advances In pig iron In fact

are active and fruit aud vegetable ship
ments promise to be early aud heavy.
Other favorable features of the situa-
tion are summed up In liberal shipments
OF leading cereals, unprecedented totals OF

Prices have moved irregularly during the

OWENS!sDENIED MANDAMUs.

Corn Tor Local Cenaumption wa

Greater rate.

Galveston, Texas March 1s.-The appl,.
cation Of John Owens sfor writ of man
damus against the International and Grea,
Northern was denied by Judge Bryant OF
the Federal court today The court exam
ined the petition Of the plaintlff and the
answer Of the defendant, heard the argu-
ments Of the counsel and then decided that
the complainant was not entitled TO the
writ prayed for.
Owens in his petition set out that he
bought ten cars of corn in Kansas City,
on which freight was prepaid to Galveston.
On arrival here the International and
Great Northern refused to deliver the corn
without the payment OF additional charges.
He refused to pay more and the suit for
mandamus followed.
The company, in answer, showed that
the corn was marked for export and was
consequently entitled to lower rate than
a local shipment. When the grain ar
rived here, Owens directed that it be de-
liyered to warehouse for holding instead
OF to an elevator for export and hence ex-
ira charges were demanded.

morrow.
Neither peace nor war reports have
changed the onward course OF business.
The treasury receipts OF about si100, 900
per day have kept in check any question
about the currency, while exports OF pro-
ducts have continued at rate consider
ably increased and the demand for pro-
ducts of the great Industries has showed
steady expansion. Prompt action by the
senate and house have removed all fear
of embarrassment through conflicting pur-
poses at Washington. The government Is
making ready without any waste Of time.
while frankly assuring everybody that 1t
looks for peaceful settlement and hopes
that its preparations may prove unneces-
sary
The backbone OF the situation Is the
excess OF merchandise exports, more than
4l,0UU,U00 In February, with an increase
of $2.2G0, 900 iii miscellaneous products,
s2l, AGO 900 in provisions, s4,500,00 IN cotton
and $1000,00O in breadstufis compared with
last year, and SIS. 100000 In ali products.
In two weeks OF March exports have been
liz per cent larger than last year and inn
ports have gained but 81 per cent, though
especially swelled by receipts of India ruo-
Der. sugar aud hides The outgo of cotton
surlasses all expectations, though tho price
was stronger last week and the export de-
mand apparently paid no attention to mar
ket fluctuations.
Receipts from plantations continue much
greater than at the corresponding time
last year; SO that guesses about the future
crop are now the main reliance of spec
ulators.
Wheat also moves In spite of all specula
ton. Exports for three weeks for both
coasts were 10,659,125 bushels, against
4,5SS,441 last year. The price has varied
with conflicting reports, but closed quar-
ter higher for the week.
Wool shows no change in quotations.
though Eastern markets are extremely dull
and transactions were only 2,062,30 pounds
this week, against 10, s91, 900 last year.
In cotton good prints cloths are 1-l6c
lower than a week ago and standard grades
undersold by many of less note The de-
mand is large, but not large enough. In
wooden goods, on the contrary. the material
advance in prices has raised the only OBJ
stacle to increased transactions.
Pig iron is unchanged and so are nm
ished products, excepting wire nails,
which are &c ner keg weaker and steel
rails, which are said to be sold at sl7.5c
at the East by some establishments.
Failures for the week have been EOS in
the United States, against 216 last year.

Prices Touched below Those az Last

New York. March 1S.---Bradstreet's FL
nancial Review tomorrow will say:
Prices continued to break Saturday and
in many cases the figures reached were
below the level OF last November. There
was great deal of liquidation and consid-
trable activity on the bear side. who were
aided by the free circulation OF disquietng
reports from the foreign situation. Mon
DAY, however, the market responded to
more favorable news. London bought stocks
ana there was support from large manipu-
iaove interests. The bears were forced to
cover and prices rapidly reEaincd their de-
ciines. The rally continued on Tuesday
and Wednesday, though the principal char
acter OF the trading and evidence otSoutside
interest was apparent. On Thursday tho
expectation that the report on tho disaster
TO the Maine would reach the president and
the important developments in connection
with the country's relations with spaln ana
cuba were about to transpire. caused n
reaction. Support was withdrawn and
traders sold long holdings, while the bear
interests showed removed activity. Under
such pressure the market sold of agar,
with apparent readiness and continued this
course Friday.
