savannah, Sept. 27.-The situation in the

: made very interesting by the repeated
advances they have made during the past
tan DAYS. Unforeseen conditions have arts
an and exerted strong influence upon
noth markets, causing prices to jump to

for some time.

The light receipts of spirits, as com

rent below the highest official price paid
This season. 1t is commonly known, how
ever. that private sales were made this
season a 80 cents. The part the light re
rcipis have played has been to influence
some buyers into believing that there he
ing no storm this year, and therefore no
hiudrance on this account to shipments,
the receipts would be larger than they
were last year. The theory was that this
WOULD depress the market. The receipts
are much lighter just now than they were
This time last year, however, and the eff
feet has been to strengthen the market.
To the light receipts is added a strong
foreign and domestic demand, which is
making very firm market at steadily
advancing prices. Rosin was firm and I'M

THIS YEARS. GRADUATING CLASS
The Largest In the History Of the
HiQh School.

Prof. G. P. Putnam, superintendent
Of thereby schools, was seen at the
Central school this morning in
regard to the approaching graduating
exercises. He said:
1--WE will hold our graduation ex-
cersises on the 10Th of May or there
abouts, but the day will be definitely
decided On at the school board meeting
which will be held tonight"
1--WE shall commence general re-
view in about two weeks and [ antici-
pate fair average in the line of pro-
motion. It is to be hoped that non e
of the members of the graduating class
will fail but of course this is not de-
fnitely known and will GOT be until
the general review has taken place.
"The graduating class numbers IL, the
largest we have ever had, and doubles
in numbers any former class.
In all the departments in our schools
the work is progressing finely. There
will be larger numb Der of failures this
year ON account of SO much absence
caused by sickness. Parents and guar
dians are particularly enjoined to have
their children come to school every day
until the scholastic year is brought
to close. 1t is usually very grave
to child to fail, as promo
tic ms are made but once a year, aud
the general average offs per cent is
re guired from each and every pupil
seeking promotion"

Projected SUMMER SCHOOL
In the Sacramentos.

The teachers of Ell Paso and certain
portions of New Mexico have been
sgitating for a long time the opening
of q summer school in the heart of the
Sacramento mountains. and it looks
now as if the scheme will be success
fully operated this year. When Prof.
Putnam, who Is the prime mover in
the undertaking was seen by re-
preventative of the HERALD he said:
81 have contemplated along with 9TH
err teachers, organizing q summer
school in the Sacramentos, and I be-
lieve we will bring the matter to
successful issue. If we do we will pro-
vide accommodations for all
who desire to attend, and
taking into consideration the cool
climate, and. magnifcent scenery, we ex-
poet to give rery fine opportunities for
study and Improvement. We will make
arrangements with the railroad for spe-
cial rates for all those who attend from
this section. If the enterprise is un-
dertaken there will be an efficient corps
of teachers, some from here and else
where. The rates for tuition will be
reasonable. An effort will be made to
issue certificates from the school, good
in Texas and New Mexico for periods
of two and four years.
'In point of climate and scenery and
general conditions for genuine rest
there sis no better place than the
Sacramento Mountains"

AN AWFUL WRECK.
An Engine and Eleven Cars in a
Heap at the Foot of an Incline
Near Benson, Arizona.

An awful wreck occurred on the
Southern Pacific at $50 O'Clock last
night. The latest report which has
reached here. up to the hour of going
to press, ls very meager.
A short ways west of Benson there
is steep incline at the foot of which
there is bridge two spans in length.
According to the report this bridge
had washed out and when the freight
train came along the engine tumbled
in and eleven cars piled up on top of
it.
At this writing it is impossible to
learn whether anyone was injured or
not, but if the above report be correct
there must necessarily be some lives
lost, and from the best authority
Obtainable the above account is cor
rect.
The passenger train due here at 1:3O
this afternoon will not be here until
late tonight.
