ssxAins OF CORP. MURPHY.

AS far as the military authorities of
this state are concerned the movements
OF the First Rhode Island Regiment are
just as much of mystery as ever. and
absolutely nothing is known as TO
whether the regiment is to be mustered
out OF service or whether It is to be
sent to one Of the present colonial de-
pendencies. 1t appears now that the
report sent yesterday afternoon from
Camp Meade. Middletown. Pa. TO the
offeot that the First Rhode Island Regi-
ment would probably be sent to the
Philippines. is incorrect.
At the adjutan. generals Office moth
ing denn1te WAS known about the mat
ter although some OF the officials had
heard that the war department had not
decided anything as to the ultimate
destination OF the Rhode Island troops,
and that the idea of sending them to
the Philippines had never been enter
tatned by Adjt. Gen. Corbin or by Sec
retary OF War Alger. IL is generally
believed that the regiment Will not be
mustered out for the present. but that
final orders will be sent to Camp Meade
in tho near future.

SAN Francisco, CAL, Oct. 29.-Mrs.

by the Grand Jury of the city and coun.
ty of San Francisco for the murder OF
Mrs. John E. Dunning, in Dover, Del,

Presiding Judge Belcher, OF the Su-
perior Court, to whom the indictment
was presented, declared from the Bench
that, according to the facts and evidence,
the crime charged was murder in the
first degree. He, therefore, instructed
the Clerk of the Court to indorse the in
dictment, with the statement that bail
would not be accepted.
The case was then assigned for trial to
the criminal department Of the court
which is presided over by Judge Carroll
Cook. No time for the opening of the
case was SET The prisoner remains
in the custody OF Chief of Police Lees.

PHILADELPHIA Peace Jubilee is over
1t was an unparalleled success in ever,
point of view. BY reason of the rain on
Tuesday it lasted one day longer than
was originally intended and in that re-.
spect benefited many at the expense OF
others.
The whole week was given up to tie
occasion. so that little else was done or
thought of. The great channels of trade
were interfered with and retailing was
practically at a stand still.
In this CITY it has been an off week
with dealers in almost all kind>of house
hold commodities, and the week is gen
orally set down as one of the dullest in
local trade circles. Much of this trade
Will yet be made up, and during the
next few days things should go at a
lively pace to make up for ground lost.
The expenditures incidental to the
great occasion should have the effect of
btneIitln5 many, for bv reason iof these
expenditures good deal of money has
been diverted into other than the regular
channels OF trade, and thus will large
amount OF money get into circulation
that otherwise would have been tied nm
elsewhere.

A BUJSINESS 'HAr GREW.
In Eighteen Months the Business of
James H. Wright OutgreW the
Quarters, and il Still Growing.


The new store of James H. Wright at
Eighth and Market streets is standing
estimonial Of what properly directed
business, hustle and tact will do.
Mr.. Wright was, for years, the efficient
and capable manager of Hambnrger's.
When less than year ago he left this
firm and bought the stand at Eighth and
Market it was settled fact that hp
would succeed, but few, and probably
Mr.. Wright among the number, dreamed
hat in less than eighteen months the
already commodious quarters would be
.ntirelv too smaH to contain the business
which has resulted from Mr.. Wright's
management.
Last August the rebuilding operations
were commenced aud last week marked
the completion of one Of the handsomest
stores in the city.
Immense plate glass windows on both
Eighth and Market streets furnish
npIe space for the display of special
ties.
In the interior every thing has been
changed.
The store is of immense depth, and
lie long line of tables loaded with good.
show an assortment that would be hard
equal.
Two floors are devoted to the sale of
read, -nade goods, specially being made
Of childrens clothing A lady attendant
in this department makes things pleasan,
tor the mother who buys for the young.
ster. Capable sa esmen are ready to wait
upon everybody.
The line OF goods is unexcelled and the
store magni6cently lighted.
During the day many windows admit
plenty of light to show goods to advan.
age and at night great arc lamps ,,ah'
things as light as if they were SO many
suns.
Mr. Wright employs over fifty people
and with his immense facilities is fair
example Of the men who make and are
responsible for the prosperity of a COM
munity.
Everything is now complete. Stock
and store are more than doubled in size
Now they have the best lighted, contest
and most complete clothing store in the
State.
This, however, would be unimportant
were it not that the expansion of room
and stock, following an equal expansion
of trade, clearly demonstrates the success
of their policy" Better goods for the
same money, or the same goods for less
money than elsewhere"

IT is time that Samuel Bancroft &C.

why he, through the columns of his
paper, charged the Levy Court men
with Observation-Disclosures" "mismanage.

1t has been some months since Mr..
Bancroft gave vent to his uEsupportt d
statement of financial crookednrss, a, d
although the public has demanded it. Mr..
Bancroft has WEIGHED and remained
silent.
The public is becoming, or to put it
rightly, have become disgusted with Mr..
Bancroft, who, after making sucl
charges, plainly shows his cowardice by
not revealing them, if they exist, ana
publish them through the columns of his
paper.
Mr.. Bancroft Is in the position Of the

IHE threat of Governor Tanner to
meet every train bringing unwelcome
laborers 10 Illinois 'at the State line and
shoot it to pieces with Gatling guns"
may do very well as a wild Western idea
OF abstract justice, but it is not consistent
with the orderly procedure of an estab-
llshcl Commonwealth.
1t is ony y the worse because the Gov
ernor has not the slightest intention of
literally carrying out his threat.
1t is merely his wav of saying that he
will repel the deprecated class of travel
e"' by force, if necessary. But he will
not do even that.
The Constitution Of the United States

Govrn cannot override the fundamen.

Governor Tanner is simply bidding

The Spanish Governor of Guam, it
will be remembered, had not even heard
that the United States Was at war with

Shreveport La, December 8, 1897.
Commencing on this date I will receive,
dray, insure, store and sell all cotton not
heretofore advanced on during the spring
and summer months, that may hereafter
be shipped to me, for Csc per bale, and
will hold such as may be desired held, for
sixty days without additional charge; Csc
per bale covering all charges for sixty
days or less time.
Cash will be advanced on bills of lading
or warehouse receipts.
Desiring an increase of business in my
cotton department, having secured the
lowest rate of insurance and storage ever
effected in the State of Louisiana, 25c per
bale covering all costs, should divert to
Shreveport and to me an immense vol
ume of cotton.
Believing it is with cotton as with gro
ceries, when satisfactory prices are made,
business is half secured, 1 submit the
foregoing to all shippers of cotton in
Territory and North Louisiana for consid-
