Ward six in Grant parish, has been
greatly stirred up this week over the op-
erations of . band OF regulators. A
number OF negro families residing on
the plantations Of j. G. Calhoun. joseph
Billes. and others, have been notified to
leave, q party Of ten or twelve pSrsons
having visited each house last Tuesday
night and ordered them to move within
the next ten days The regulators are
said to have told q number OF persons
that there were too many negroes in
ward six, and that they proposed to
make them move out 20 there would be
more room for the whites, and lands
could be bought or rented ct cheaper
figures.
We hope the reports from that section
arc exaggerated, and that tho disturb-
ance of the community may not b -

that some Of the youngsters while out

But it should be remembered that these re-
suits are largely speculative and may be
very much Influenced by the disposition of
weights and internal arrangements of the
vessel. Thus in some italian experiments
with model of a ship with a triple bottom
seVenty-hve pounds of gun cotton exploded
IN contact broke through two of them and
when the space between the two inner ones
was nlied with coal only the outer bottom
was injured.
Comparing dynamite with gun cotton, the
TWO explosives with which we are most ia
mliar, 1t may be said that dynamite loses
Strength by the evaporation of the nitro
glycerin. Pure gun cotton, whether wet or
dry. is unaffected by changes of telnpera-
lure Gun cotton, as we'll as forcite and GEL
atine dynamite. are unaffected by water
when drowned in water. Nitroglycerin is
lnsoluble in water. so that most of the COM
pounds are uninjured by being submerged
With regard to safety in handling and
transportation dynamite and nitroglycerin
are the most sensitive. They should not be
4exposed to a tropical sun. Gun cotton is
more liable to defamation by influence when
dry tnan when wet, and dynamite when
compressed than when loose. Buoyant
mines, when planted, if filled with five hun
dred pounds of blasting gelatine, need to be
spaced every 456 feet; gun-cotton mines re-
quire 321 feet. while gunpowder requires
one hundred feet.
Summing up-and here we are quoting
from Lieutenant Simpson-we find blasting
gelatine and gun cotton as the two explo-
siyeS best fulfilling all the requirements
and they are the ones generally in use for
submarine work. Blasting geiatine shows a
superiority with regard to strength, shatter-
ing effects, Elasticity and specific gravity
but gun cotton from it's stability safety
and capability of exerting it's full force even
when confined simply in net, combined
with its high standing in the other require
ments, all tend to make it the best high ex-
plOSive for naval use.

Rain for seven consecutive days is very
conducive to trade, still more business is in
progress than would expect under the con-
ditiors. Prices continue steady in most lines
Dry goods, staple groceries. drugs. hardware, iron
and leather all rule firm. On Commission row
prices on most vegetables weak, but good
fruits are well held. Wholesale merchants are
not complaining, being satisfied chat when good
weather and settled roads do come business will
be at it's maximum. The flour market is unset
tied Hay is weak the home supply still being
about equal to the demand. Seed merchants re-
port their business good. Wool is quiet and prices
firm. Poultry, eggs and butter all rule easy at

Wool.

BOSTON, March 23-The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow of the wool
market The volume of sales has been a trife
heavier than the week previous. Taking the mar
ket as whole, duler situation can hardly be
imagined. The Cuban crisis has put an end to
all activity The manufacturers do not want
wool except occasionally small lots for the pur-
pose of piecing out their present holdings. The
principal factors which are influencing the market
at present may perhaps be reduced to three.
First, of course, is the war scare. A second and
very important factor is the presence here still
of considerable amount of cheap last year S
wool. Until this is all cleaned up there can be
no guarantee that prices will be fully maintained.
A third factor is cancellation of orders for I'm
ished product The extent of this evil will per-
haps be appreciated when we state that one mill
had one order for SAC, 900 Cancelled. All that can
be said about prices is that there is not enough
of a market to make prices. Quotations are nom
inaily unchanged, but market so dull as the
present is bound to sag of it's own weight. Con-
cessions are made and sporadic cases of unusually
low quotations are encountered Most dealers in
carpet woods have done business to speak of,
but in certain quarters there have been large
sales. Prices are well maintained on carpet
woods as on anything in the list. The sales OF
the week in Boston amount to $751; 600 lbs domestic
and AS 500 lbs foreign making total of 1929 900
lbs against total of JOY 600 lbs for the previous
week and total of - 679, 600 lbs for the CORE
spending week last year.

Dry Goods.

NEW YORK. March 23.-The continued dull
weather and the weakness of print cloth markets
are details which initiate against a heavy bust
ness IN dry goods. AS a matter of fact the trade
of cotton goods Staples are dull and subject
only 10 the passing demand Of manufacturers.
Bleached goods have shown decided weakness
in the last two days particularly in the cheaper
grades. In brown goods the weakness is not so
pronounced. Print cloths are still quoted at 2hc
less per cent. nominal for extras at Fall River
but the actual bidding is nearer &c than the
quoted price. Odd goods are in feeble request at
relatively weak prices.
