HESTER M AD
Writes Rather Scorching Letter to
Statistician Hyde

New Orleans, November 16.-Secretary
Hester, of the New Orleans Cotton Elk
change, has written to John Hyde, statisti-
clan of the agricultural department, rela-
tive to the failure of the New Orleans and
other exchanges to get the cotton report of
the department issued on November IA I'M
til two or three hours after the spectators
got the news. Mr.. Hester's letter closes
as follows:
1.-THE result of all this was that the specu-
lators received the benefit of the informa-
ton, which was known on the streets, and
the legitimate trade doubted the matter on
account of it's unusual appearance in ad-
vance. The feeling is quite sore a the i'm
preston conveyed by the telegraph COM
pany that prominent official had, in issu-
ing information of the greatest importance
to the entire southern country, permitted
the trade to be victimized for the benefit
of a few spectators. OF course you under
stand l give you this for your information,
knowing that one story is good only until
the other is told. The last Geographic ac-
cdent, coming soon after the Dewey day
affair." when false quotations of the price
of cotton were published in all the southern
cities, has aroused a great deal of indigna-
ton and suspicion, and the Cotton Elk
change will insist that the matter be probed
to the bottom"

no news of his death further than that
conveyed to them by today's Associated
Press dispatches. They did not credit the
report of Greenhouses critical illness, pub
lished in the newspapers three weeks ago,

TWO ACCIDENTS IN
The DAYS RECORD
Both Happened to A. G. S. Pas
Sehger Trains
COST AN ENGINEERS LIFE
Head End Collision Near Bibbville Re
suited in the Death of Alvin Pat
terson-No. 3 Struck Freight.
&c cond Not So Serious

Passenger trains Nos. and 8 on the Ala
bama Great Southern railway met with
accidents last night, the most serious being
a head-end collision near Bibbville, thirty
miles west of the city, between No. and
an extra double-header freight, which re-
suited in the death of Engineer Alvin Pat
terson of this city.
Passenger No. 8, south bound, in charge
of Conductor Dunlap and Engineer Pape,
left the city on time at 4:90 o'clock yester-
day afternoon with orders to pass the ex-
ira at Bibbville ait 5:55. According to in
formation obtainable, No. 3 ran into the
siding at Bibbville, but instead of waiting,
pulled out under a conditional order, and
at 55S collided with the extra about three
miles west of Bbbbville. The trains were
running at a high rate of speed, but were
slackened before they struck, preventing
a greater loss of life and property.
Both engine crews jumped, but Engineer
Patterson was caught between his engine
and box car and his life crushed out. Only
neaSer details were ODldlHdDle UP W d ihto
hour last night, but it is given out that
none of the passengers were injured, and
that the damage to property is compare
lively light. The accident is said to have
been caused by a difference in time.
Superintendent Wickersham left for the
scene with the wrecking crew and reported
that the track would be open for No. 1,
due to pass that point shortly after IL
o'clock.
The accident to No. 1 happened at the
Twenty-seventh street crossing at 10 o'clock
last night. No. was just pulling into the
city and whistled for the crossing as re-
quired by law AS the train started again
the engine was struck by an incoming
freight on the western division of the
Southern and the engine derailed. The ac-
cident caused two hours delay and consid-
cradle inconvenience to the passengers,
who We're taken back ITO Irondale and
brought into the city over the Southern's
track.
Engineer Patterson, who was killed in the
south end collision, resided with his family
at 2205 Fourth avenue and was one of the
most popular men on the road. His re-
mains will be brought in this morning.

WILL MAKE NO
RECOMMENDATIONS
President TO Keep Quiet Regard
ing Cuban Franchises.
ATTITUDE OF THE OFFICIALS
Matters Pertaining to Telegraph and
Gables in the Island Must be Laid
Before Congress at Its Ses-
sion-The Administration

Washington, November 16.-After careful
consideration of the subject the president
has decided to make no recommendations
to congress at the approaching session
touching the repeal of the legislation which
has prevented the granting of any fran
chises in Cuba. The administration has be-
come convinced that such serious harm has
been worked to the best interests OF the
islands by this legislation and that the at
temps of the government of the United
States to forward the development OF the
industries of Cuba and advance the condltioh
of the people have been greatly hampered
by the inhibition which prevents the pullu-
ing of railroads or wharves, the construc-
ton of bridges, of trolley roads, of water
and sewer concessions and all that class of
semi-public works which give employment
to many persons both in construction and
operation.
The attitude of the administration officials
In refusing to approve the numerous appii-
cations for franchises which have been
made has exposed them to severe criticisms,
based on the presumption that they were
clothed with discretionary powers in passing
upon them. This has been particularly the
case in regard Ito the Cuban cable and tele-
graph system, a problem which confronted
Secretary Alger soon after the adjournment
of the congress which passed the Foraker
resolution prohibiting the granting of
franchises in Cuba. The secretary was fully
disposed to allow competition in that line,
but his attention having been drawn to the
expressed intent of congress, the matter,
after being discussed in the cabinet, was
referred to the attorney general for his
opinion.
That official at once decided there was no
possibility of doubling the intention of con-
gress and therefore the president felt OBJ
liged to refuse to allow any competition in
telegraph and cables which involved the eX-
tension of granted right to the competing
parties and directed Secretary Alger to
abide that decision. 1t appears that these
facts must be laid before congress at the
approaching session though it is certain
the president and Secretary Root will not
feel it incumbent to moro than let the facts
speak for themselves and will refrain from
making any recommendations on the
subject.
