PRICE OF COTTON.

The price of cotton on the Yorkville
market continues to range as has been
reported some days past-from ST to
St. Just at this time Yorkville is one
of the highest markets in the county
The following from Messrs. Hubbard
Bros, of New York, under date of
Monday describes the general situa-
ton {:
The Liverpool market was affected
at the opening by the fear of the war
with the Beers, but recovered smartly
at the close on the brighter movements
in the southwest. Today Houston was
10 per cent. less than last year, while
for tomorrow the estimate is 33 per
cent. less. Spinners are paying prices
for cotton away beyond any basis with
the foreign. markets, and the southern
markets are comparatively very high:
The movement of the crop will from
now on compare with the movement
of the largest crop on record, and we
believe the comparisons will be in
favor of this season. Every indication
points to a crop decidedly less than
last season, which, coupled with the
largest consumption ever known, will,
we believe, bring higher prices.

department has not entirely abandon
ed the project of delivering mail in
boxes along star routes without ex'
pense to patrons will, no doubt, be re-
ceived with a great deal of pleasure
by great many people. Further than
the statement published elsewhere, we
are not prepared to say anything def
mite on the subject just at this time.
The readers of The ENQUIRER re-
member very we'll the splendid fight
that DR.. Stokes and Others made for
the necessary appropriation during the
last congress. In our opinion, it was
the best and most intelligent fight that
southern representatives have been
able to put up in recent years. 1t was
not, it will be remembered, pretend
ed fight "for buncombe )" but real
fight, which all but overwhelmed the
-blooded senate committee, which
would have agreed to the appropria-
ton had it not been for the enforced
absence of one favorable member.
But it seems that DR.. Stokes was not
satisfied with that. He has managed
to persuade Postmaster General Smith
to take an unusual step on his own re-
sponsibility and call for bids for the nec-
essary service, even without express
authority from congress. 1t does not
necessarily follow that this free deliv-
cry system is yet to be adopted. That
will depend largely on the result OF
the bidding; but the chances of sue
cess are good. However, whether
contracts are let as indicated or not,
DR.. Stokes has performed good service
for the state, and in the name of a
large number of people in this section,
we take it upon ourselves to return to
him especial thanks.

From some of the Associated Press
dispatches it appears that there is at
least shadow of hope for Democratic
success in Ohio, this fall. The princi-
pal basis of the suggestion is the al
legged disgust of the people with the
subserviency of the president to Mark
Hanna. As much as we would like
to see Democratic success in Ohio,
we have but little hope of it. John
R. Mclean is a shrewd politician, with
a barrel of money that he is not afraid
to spend. But the Republicans un-
derstand too well what the loss OF
Ohio would mean to them at any time,
especially just now, and with all the
money they can possibly use, together
with the prestige and power of all
the governmental machinery, both
state and national, at their control, it
is not likely that they will let such a
plum slip through their fingers. We
hope we are mistaken; but we do not
believe that we are.

THE HOSPITAL.

Drs. Walker and Carothers, at the
request of the patient, through DIR.
White, who has the case, went out last
Saturday and made a careful exami-
nation of Benjamin Armstrong, who
was recently wounded by Constable
Ferguson. 1t was necessary to use
chloroform. The examination devel-
oped the fact that the bullet did not
lodge in Armstrong; body I; also that
the bladder was not injured. The
wound is still very painful but unless
blood poisoning sets in is nor likely to
prove fatal.
Will Jones who was so badly carved
by Adam Mckinney not long ago, is
getting along very nicely. There is
every probability of his recovery. Alf
Massey is out of danger. Adam Nc
Kinney has entirely recovered from
the pistol shot wound inflicted by Will
Jones. He is still in Jail.

= There are no important new de-
velopments in the Dreyfus case. The
first wave of indignation over the Ver-
dict seems to be subsiding, and there
is doubt as to whether any OF the
threats of boycotting the Paris exposl.
ton will be carried out. There is still
every reason to believe that President
Loubert will pardon Dreyfus, thus
saving him from further imprisonment.
This, however, will not satisfy either
the prisoner or his friends and SYM
pathizers. They will be satisfied with
nothing but vindication. 1t is stated
from Paris that on account of the ter
rible suffering through which Dreyfus
has gone within the past FIVE years, his
health is undermined to such an ex-
tent that he cannot hope to live more
than few months longer.

along as satisfactorily as could be ex-
pected. The bullet hole in his wind
pipe has caused the escape of con-
siderable amount of air, which puffs
up his skin like the blowing up of a
rabbit. This swelling, which Scales
says has caused him no inconvenience,
is subsiding somewhat. Scales is still
splitting more or less blood from his
punctured lung, and at times is quite
sick. He has but little fever, how.
ever-at times none at all He is not
thought to be out of danger !; but his
chances of recovery appear to be much
better than on the morning after the
shooting.
Will Sims, the crazy Negro at the
jail, is still as mad as hare but the
other prisoners have become so accus-
toned to him that he no longer in
spires them with fear. His mania now
takes GQ6 lOTtu VI ueSlTc W uduCCJ
and at the direction of two of the
prisoners who seem to be able to exer-
else considerable control over him, he
makes any other prisoner who may be
pointed out, join him in his antics.
At intervals the mood changes and
then the fellow flies into transports of
rage, throwing at his fellows whatever
comes nearest his hands, from tin
plate to heavy pine table. All the
while he utters gutteral sounds but
never articulates a distinguishable
word. His fellow prisoners say that
he has not spoken a connected SEN
tence since he was seized with the first
raving spell. His case is very strange
one, and DR.. Walker is more or less
puzzled over it. 1t is possible that the
Negro is shammiug; but not'at all pro-
bable. ...
There is a Negro woman in Jail
who is threatened with a case of fever.

the northern markets. 1t was his in
tention when he left to buy big stock
of goods Notwithstanding crop failures,
and he says that is what he has done.
His new goods are arriving every day
now.
Up to this date last year, the Nor.
row ginnery had ginned only 70
bales of cotton, and already this year
it has ginned l4O bales. In all last
season this ginnery handled 1850
bales. Our friends on the New York
Cotton Exchange would, of course,
take these figures as indicating a big
crop; but it is unnecessary to say that
they only signify an early crop.
Mr.. H. G. Strauss reminds the pub.
lie today that his cash coupon sale in
competition for the handsome piano he
proposes to give away will come to a
close on September 80, and that all
coupons must be banded in by 4
o'clock p. NJ, of that day. This, it
will be remembered, is in accordance
with Mr.. Strauss's original proposition,
and the name of the winning competi-
tor will be announced not later than
October 4. AS to just how many cou-
pons are out, Mr.. Strauss has no def
mite information but there are lots of
them, and the competitor who has the
largest number is to become the owner
of the handsome Kingsbury piano.

- The long drawn out diplomatic
correspondence between Great Britian
and the Transvaal remains unsettled.
1t was thought that the. British note
of August %, which was very much in
the nature of an ultimatum, would
bring the situation to climax at once ;
but it appears that the Transvaal gov
ernment knows how to juggle with
words and secure delay as we'll as the
British. The Transvaal reply was
made public last Monday morning. 1t
does not definitely answer any of the
British intimations but on the con-
trary, is negative throughout. The
London papers of Monday said that
there would be a meeting of the Brit
ish cabinet on Wednesday or Thurs
day, at which action would be taken
to bring matters to a conclusion.
Judging from the press opinion, there
is no escape from war. The Beers
don't show any disposition to yield to
the demands of the British, and it is
not thought probable that the British
will withdraw from their position. 1t
has been suggested that if the British
send an ultimatum the Transyaal will
ask for arbitration of the dispute; but
it does not now appear that there will
be such development. 1t really looks
like fight. 1t is doubtful if the Brit
ish are at all desirous of arbitration
and to avoid it they may take the steps
to force aggressive action.

- In his defense of trusts, Bourke
Cochran made a very pleasant point
by characterizing Mr.. Bryan as a
monopolist of intellect. The point
was we'll taken. Mr.. Bryan really is
something of a monopolist along that
line; but there can be no question OF
the fact that he came by his intellect
honestly, and as it is admitted that
there is no objection to honest posses
sions, Cockran's argument does not fit
the case.

mill. The matter is now all but a
foregone conclusion, and we do not

for the people of the town ; but of the
surrounding country. There is not an
individual living within six or seven
miles who is not as much interested as
those living within the corporation.

times for all. 1t will furnish employ
