several hundred of the prettiest styles of
the best makers. Many of them have
what is known as a collarette bow at the
top aid either bayadere striped or plaid
silk in the cover. Handles are usually of
natural wood.
Others are one mass Of dainty White

stitched, while others are so plain as to
almost suggest the umbrella. There is

M'KISSON EXPLAIN S.
Says Hanna Boilers Elected Farley,
Democrat.

Cleveland, o., April 4.-Mayor McKisson,
republican, has made the following signed
statement concerning his defeat:
1.-The Hanna boilers and corporation in
fluenoes through lavish use of money
elected Farley, democrat, and defeated the
head of the republican ticket yesterday.
That is all 1 care to say at present.
ROBERT E. M'KISSON."
Mayor-elect Farley in interview said:
my election simply means that the peo-
pie of Cleveland want honest government:
that they are tired of McKssontsm, and
are opposed to pillage and blacKmail."
= Congressman Burton, republican, who
supported McKisson, said: 1.-THE defeat of
Mr.. McKisson can be attributed to fac
tional fight in our party. OF course, the
charges of corruption had much to do with
it, but after all factionalism did the
work"
what is the cause of the factionalism: :"
was asked.
''Oh, there can be but one answer, and
that is the Columbus episode of a year
ago. McKisson made the mistake of his
life in trying to thwart the will of his
party"
McKissons fight on Hanna caused the
formers defeat for mayor of Cleveland.
The plurality of Farley, democrat, is about
$500. The remainder of the republican
ticket won.

AT TER REACTIONARY TURNS

New York, April 4.-The market for cot
ton futures made a steady start today but
later turned weak under a renewal of the
b liquidation which sent prices lower yestef-
day.
The bear element hammered the present
crop positions quite freely. The opening
was at unchanged prices to one point ad-
vance, with business for time very light
During the first hour the market wavered
news being quite conflicting and orders few
and far between. Shortly after midday,
however, unloading of old long stuff was
started by a more bearish semi weekly re-
port than expected, coupled with estimates
for continued moderate receipts and stop
orders we're soon reached.
The handsome profits in sight tempted
foreign and local shorts to cover later, but
after several reactionary turns the market
closed quiet and steady at net loss of
one to five points. The reopening of Liver
pool this morning developed a less favora-
bile state of affairs in the market than the
crowd had been led to expect. Speculation
in futures according to private adviees
were very slack, while demand for spot

fore the holidays set in.

DREYFUs' HEALTH Is BAD,
Acts Like Man Returning From
the Dead to World of Life.

London, Sept. pa correspondent Of the
Daily Mail, who Joined the Dreyfus party
at Bordeaux and accompanied them to
Carpentras, describes Dreyfus as
thoughtful, prcmaturely aged, with soft
eyes, smile like a woman's and rather
the appearance of savant than SOL
der"
When told of the great wave of British
sympathy in his behalf, he wrung the cor
respondents hand and showed the deep
est emotion.
His health, the correspondent says, is
lar from satisfactory. He ate meat yes
terday for the first time. 1T is against the
doctors orders" said Matthew Dreyfus.
All said the former captain Of artil-
lery, Get me have holiday to-day. 1
VIII be sedate and Obedient again to-mor-
row. l am just like a boy now. and feel
that l could run and jump about the green
nelds for very joy. Just think! I shah now
be able TO laugh and play with my chill
dren in The beautiful country"
After the meal despite his bro hers half
laughing protest, he smoked several cigars
TO celebrate the holiday" The sad note
amid the rejoicing was the death of M
Schurer- Kestner.
Il am grieved beyond words" said
Dreyfus, TO think that I shall never be
able TO thank that noble heart"
one of his first acts on obtaining his
freedom was to have a wreath sent TO be
placed on the coffin of his champion ana
friend
AT present he speaks little of past events.
He says: II have forgiven, but l cannot
forget"
He intends to devote himself to proving
his innocence. When that has been ac-
complshed he will only ask to be allowed
to spend the remainder of his days with
his loved ones, far from the busy world.
Ills delight at every thing on the jour
ney," continues the Daily Nails CORE
spondent, was that of man returning
from the dead to the world he loved. The
affection and solieitude of his brother are
touching to see. His physical weakness
causes the deepest apprehension 10 his
friends. The journey was in the main I'M
eventful except for a few expressions Of
disappointment on the part of people who
endeavored to get a glimpse of him"

Springfield. H., Sept. IA Carterville

secret verdict of the coroner's jury in the
Carterville riot case is in two sections. The
first states that Huse Bradley, John Black,
r. L. Floyd and Henry Barnum came to
their deaths by gunshot wounds inflicted
during riot, and charges Wesley Shadow
en-, Willis Shadowen Elmer James Lem
ShadoWen, Willis Carney, Win Kelly and
others unknown to the jurors with being
engaged in the riot. The jury states THAI
it is unable to say which of the accused
men killed The negroes,
In the second section of the verdict the
jury finds that the fifth negro killed, Sam
Cummings, was shot by Elmer James and

The special says the negroes at the
Brush mines attempted to kill one of their
number whom they accused OF betraying

The negro was rescued by the militia au1
fed the neighborhood. The white miners
are now looking for him They desire to
prosecute him for participating in the
Sunday riot to Offset the cases brought
against them.
