Lyman B. Goff. prominent cotton and
wooden manufacturer of Rhode Island,
well known as a high tariff Republican. and
as a friend and supporter of President Nc
Kinley. both before and since his cleo
tion to the Presidency. is at the Arlington.
He has been in the South recently. and on
Friday called on the President at Hot
Springs. He said last night regarding his
visit: THE President is in excellent
health. He has entirely recovered from his
fatigue and is rosy and in very happy
frame of mind. Apparently he gave up
business almost entirely during his vaca-
ton. His visitors have been all social
callers only, except General Corbin, and
one or two of the Cabinet officers" Mr.
Goff said of the business conditions in
New England There is very general
prosperity, though, perhaps, not as much
of boom in business as some parts of
the country have begun to experience. The
cotton trade is hurt somewhat by the low
price of raw cotton. which always keeps
the prices of cotton goods down as we'll
There is apparently little chance that this
condition will be improved. All my obser-
walton in the South has confirmed me in
the belief that the price of cotton Will be
even lower this year than last unless some
unforeseen accident to the crop occurs. All
the Southern newspapers have preached a
diversity of crops to the farmers. and they
have had acute experience of low prices,
but every year they plant new enormous
acreage"

The Governors Foot Guard of Connecti-
cut, an organization even more ancient.
If not more honorable. than the famous
Boston warriors of song and story, has
already sent a delegation to Washington
to make arrangements for its fitting re-
ception at the Centennial next year
The delegation is four strong in mum
ber only, but much more notable
in all that makes Foo Guardsman
powerful. 1t is composed of John G.
Healy, w. W. Price, E. Mcintyre. and E.
NJ. Clark. and it is housed and entertained
at the Ebbitt The actual truth about the
Foot Guardsmen, unadorned. is that the
organization first fought at the battle of
Bunker Hill, and has since that time en-
gagged in many less bloody but not less
hilarious contests. At the Centennial
celebration next year it will muster 200
strong with its band.

Fred NJ. Odena, of Detroit, representing
one of the largest standard drug firms in
the country, is at the Raleigh. He said
last night regarding the prevalence of
smallpox and other contagious diseases:
THE drug business is sharing the pros
perity of the remainder of the country, but
not for pleasant reason. There are cpl
denies of smallpox, diphtheria, and men
engitis in many parts of the country. 1
have been on trip through the South re-
Gently and have found all these diseases
nearly everywhere. In one town in Texas
there were 800 cases of smallpox while |
was there 1t would be interesting to
learn the explanation for the general prev
alence of contagious diseases in parts of
the country SO far distant from each
other"

America and Europe Were Devoid
of Speculation.
New York. July l9-The intense duuness
of the stock market continued to be the
main feature of the trading to-day as for
some time past. Not only was it true Of
the New York market. but of the CONT
mental and London markets as well, and
speculation at different exchanges in the
United States was reported n the same
dun neglected condition.
The whole speculative world maintained
its waiting attitude. Many factors which
have been adduced to account for the hes
itation have been successfully eliminated
and the hesitation sun persists
The bears took some heart of
grace from this continued disin-
clination TO advance and made quite a
vigorous attack on the New York market
laJe to-day. Earlier gains in some of the
specialues were Wiptd out, notably in the
tobacco stocks, in sugar ard IN Steel ana
Ware, and the whole market dropped to he
low Level of the day. Missouri Pacific and

ter with a net loss of 1l2. The GIaug-
ers ali weakened Sharply and Atchison
preferred was notably heavy in tone

of the dividend declared on the stock had
