CREW SHIPPED FROM BOSTON,.
Capt. Whittier Lived in Somervi1le and
it was His Third Disaster.
Boston, October 4.-Through messages
received in this city today, few details
of the loss of the big four Jnasted schooner
Sarah e. Palmer by laundering off Char
lesion, S. c.. during the hurricane Sun

from this port when the schooner was
here early in May, that is. it is believed
that the men lost were the same as regis
tered. Two colored sailors are the only
survivors.
Capt. William H. Whittier, who was
lost, belonged in Someryille, Mass, and
the Sarah E. Palmer was his third bad
disaster, having lost the schooner John
Paul off the Long Island coast several
years ago and the Job II. jackson, Jr.,
on Peaked Hill Bars in the winter OF
1895. both vessels being four masters.
Capt. Whittier was so years of age.
The officers OF the Palmer were probably
MIR, Briggs of Taunton, first mate; Charles
Mcdonald, aged Al, OF Nova Scotia, second
mate.
The Palmer was one of the largest
schooners in the American Register.
She was owned by N. T.Palmer Of Bath,
Me-, and was named after the owner s
wife. She was built in Bath in 1894 and
registered 1,08S tons net, and 1925 tons
gross. Her Dimensions were as follows

Precept Laid Down for Teachers b!
Miss KELLOGG.

Eva Kellogg, of Boston, addressed st. Paul
teachers at the Central high school assembly

She said that the teacher had TO deal with

alone. Let the beauty of nature and the
beauty Of thought inspire the youthful mind
in It's process of development. In this sense
flowers were an important adjunct Of educa-
ton in the lower grades. They tended
through the finite to teach the beauties of the
infinite.
Miss Kellogg strongly protested against the

THE PAPER-MILL SCHEME.
Bid OF the Valentine Syndicate to De
COusidered To-day.

Judge Hancock of Chesterfield, sitting
in the Chancery Court, will decide to-
day upon the recommendation of the
commissioners that the bid OF the val
entine syndicate for he -Iaxall Mills be
ACCEPTED.
An effort was made to bring the matter
up yesterday, but Judge Hancock-who
Is holding a special term for Judge Lamb
was in attendance upon his own court
the Circuit Court of Chesterfield. DR..
Upshur, who is Judge LAMBS physician,
refused to allow a proposition to Oe sub
mitted to his patient that an extra ses-
sion should be ordered, saying that he
needed absolute rest and quiet, and must
not be disturbed by even suggestion Of
business.
The case will. therefore, be submitted
i'm the Chancery Court at IL o'clock to-
day, and there is little likelihood of the
bid of S135,00O being refused, as the GUS
tom is to act upon the recommendation
Of the commissioners.
Two other bids were made for the pro-
perty-one for the purpose Of converting
the mills into an electric-power plant,
and the other in connection with a cotton-
compress scheme. The highest bid next
TO that of the Valentine syndicate was
the offer of $l35,000.
The mill property Is valued at s277,0OO,
but in the present shrunken state OF
values the price offered by the new syn
dicate is considered a very fair one Some
of the bondholders, at all events, will
reap a very substantial profit.

WILMINGTON, n. c., November L.
,s.,c.al)-There is no truth in a report
which gained currency abroad TO the ef-
t.., that this city is in the midst of a
,.ce riot. This. however. has been a no
,.ble day in political circles here. Gov
amor Russell was here all day, and sent
,lt runners to call certain ward Repub-
u.sn leaders into his presence. The OBJ
...t of these interviews was TO change
,he purpose Of certain negro leaders TO
keep negroes from going to the polls on
eIection-day unless they were allowed to
vote for a county ticket 1t is the Cover
rors wish that they cast solid vote for
the congressional and State judicial tick
o,s.
Governor Russell returned to Raleigh
tonight. and the Dispatch correspondent
has since been told by prominent negro
leaders that the voters Of his race would
u,rsist in making the running of Re
publican county ticket, condition on
which they would go to the polls at all.
The negro Register Of Deeds Of the coun-
~ one of the foremost negroes of the
city. was especially emphatic tonight in
the expression Of this opinion. He says,
though, that he does not know whether
"a Republican ticket will be put out or
not. If there is it will be on Saturday.
OF it may not be announced until the
morning of election.
Leading white Republicans refuse to
talk for publication. one of the most
influential, however. told the Dispatch
correspondent that he was sure no ticket
would be put out in opposition to the
Democrats in the county, and that he
does not believe more than one-third of
the negroes will go to the polls. He says
ne is bending every energy TO the avert
ing Of not and bloodshed, which he fears
would be sure TO follow If the negroes
ro 10 the polls in ballot contest against
white supremacy" for local offices.
The latest report is that an effort is
being made to induce the present Regis
fer of Deeds. above mentioned, TO be-
come a so-called Independent candidate
for reelection. the object being to bring
ont the negro vote. The Democrats
would regard this as a distinct and flag
iaut violation Of the agreement already
made i'm the interest Of peace, and will
mot submit to it, whatever the conse-
Gltnccs may be-
10 is q fair statement of the general
situation to say that the Democrats are
sleeping on their arms, while the Repub-
beans are in a state of Generalization.

TRADE PARALYZED.
Sbipment of Arms from Norfolk
CrOps Suffering.

NORFOLK. VA, November 1.-(Special)
The political excitement and the fear OF
q race war i'm North Carolina have great
l., unsettled trade conditions. Travelling
men declare that the serious aspect of
affairs has completely paralyzed business
even I'm the largest cities, and that the
fear of anarchy is genuine. Men just
returned from North Carolina state that
the excitement, instead of being found
ed on the TRADES of political spell
binders. springs from a cause much deep
or as is shown by the wiping out of
marty lines by the whites. The merchants
are buying no goods and selling few. ex-
cont the hardware merchants, who are
doing a rushing business in arms and
ammunition, which, however. are sold TO
whites only. The farmers find II almost
imnossible to secure help in harvesting
tbeir crops. The peanut industry in this
city is hampered by the non-arrival of
new stock from Carolina points. The
negroes are not working in many sec
t,ons. and 1t is impossible to get the
crons TO market. Shipments of arms
oontinue 10 be made by Norfolk dealers
80 North Carolina points. am told
mot these shipments have reached tre-
mendous aggregate
