4 Blessing To Pa nm ~

Mr.. N. j. Galloway, of Alabama,
thinks the standard bale 24x54 a bless
ing to the ginners and farmers. 81
think it is a blessing to the ginners to
have the uniform bale. 1t will save
thousands Of dollars to the ginners.
If the round bale system is established,
our machinery would be worthless. 1t
would monopolize the cotton business.
and bankrupt both ginner and farmer.
The farmers would have to haul their
cotton to some point on railroad, say
from five to fifteen miles. and sell it
in the seed at a reduced rate, without
the benefit of competing buyers. The
presses are very near all changed in
our section. The 24x54 packed bale,
weighing from 500 to $40, is a nice
bale of cotton. In conclusion, / think
it a blessing to all cotton growers and
ginners to keep away trust companies.
l believe a good thing has been done
for the south in getting up the standard
bale system" .

WILMINGTON GUARANTEES
Prompt Action Taken Yesterday to
Prevent the lnvaslon Of Yellow Jack

Our city authorities, with their US
ual promptness and cau%tiousness, have
taken action fortifying Wilmington
against the invasion Of yellow fever,
which the Associated Press dispatches
report is now at the soldiers home,
Hampton, Virginia, and, no doubt, to-
day, if necessary, will follow up their
lead. Yesterday afternoons incoming
train was met by Captain Robert
Green, chief quarantine officer, nd
inspected for passengers from the yell
low v infected district, but none
was found. The freight train leaving
the city early this morning on the Will
mington and Weldon railroad will car
ry Policeman Woebse to meet the in
coming northern train, which cache
the city at $40 o'clock. Policeman
Woebse will see that no refugees or
others from the yellow jack vicinity
are allowed to come to Wilmington.
AS soon yesterday afternoon as the
report Of the yellow fever in our sister
state reached the city Mayor WaddeIl
and DR.. w. D.. Mcmillan, superintend-
en- of health, held a consultation,
which resulted in the action alluded to.
Other steps are expected to be taken
TODAY.

WANTED TO LYNCH Huu
" hite Nan After the Scalp of Another
With "A N~enneauce

A member of the street force. James
Mobiles, was tried on a peace warrant
in Justice Fowler's court yesterday and
placed under a 800 bond to keep The
peace six months. He was unable TO
give bond and was committed to Jail.
Mobiles alleged offence was different
in nature from the usual peace warrant
cases, as, shown by the evidence. ne
threatened TO lynch another white man
and looked for his intended victim ac-
companied by several other men. Going
by the evidence it seems that Saturday
Mobiles got displeased with a certain
white man and went to his house in
search of him. He failed to find him.
but informed mis- wife that he intended
to kill him on sight. His next move,
accompanied by several parties, was
to go to the nan county home, at
Rock Hill, which he searched, but in
vain. If he had found him, he told the
negro in charge of the house, he in
tended to lynch him..
The prosecutor was represented by
Messrs. Bollamy & Bellamy.

The Time 10 Begin

Mr.. w. N. Bazenan, of Alabama, as
signs four good reasons for changing
to the standard size bale. 81 am in
with the standard bale
and I believe all thinking
are on that side. What / can
gather from the iron-clad, one-sided
agreement, which the round bale sys-
tenn wants to enforce, / think it is time
for the ginners to begin to hedge
against what appears to be one Of the
most selfish monopolies ever conceived.
Will say l think the 24x54 press box
the best for all ginners.
First. It makes the package small
enough, and make a neat bale, and all
presses being uniform make the bales
compress and store uniformly.
Second. 1t prevents patrons OF gin
tipping the packer to give them ven
or eight hundred pound bales.
Third. One more jale can be loaded
on a four-horse wagon and they will
not rub the wheels.
Fourth. 1t cost me only $500 70
change my box from BOXES to the
24x54 standard"

The cotton Trust
Pianter and Ginner.)

The announcement that the manager
of the Sugar Trust has resigned his
job so that he may give his whole
time and attention to the affairs OF the
Cotton Trust, alias the American Cot
ton Company, portends evil TO the pro-
Queer Of the South's chief staple. II
means that he intends bending the
power OF his intellect. the force OF his
viii and the influence OF III millions
OF money he can undoubtedly command
10 carrying out the aims and ends Of
the American Cotton Company. which
lie nowhere this side the absolute con-
troll of the whole cotton product OF this
country-the purchase and sale of
every pound grown or the continent.
The mere lease-perpetual though il
be-of enough presses 10 put up every
bale of cotton grown. with the attend
ant royalty of one dollar per bale, or
81. 900, 900 10 s12, 000, 900 per year in
the aggregate. is not a business large
enough TO suit the taste OF such a man.
nor does the management OF such call
for the exercise OF all the restless
ability which he must expend to be
happy and contented. II the round
bale press owned and being exploited
by the American Cotton Company had
the merit claimed for il, then its in
trincic worth, backed by ordinarily
good business management, would en-
able 1t 10 supercede the old style press.
and bring i finally into universal use.
But TO work up a trust to buy all the
cotton produced, to absolutely control
the entire product-that is a matter re-
curing a genius of finance, a master
of combination-is worthy the time
and attention of e such a skillful
organizer and manipulation as the man.
ager of the Sugar Trust has shown
himself to be.

CITY CoI1RT CASES.

In the city court yesterday the case against Jennie Nanton who was charged with keeping house of i'll re- pute on State street, was nolled, and the case against Lizzie Lowery, who was charged with residing in the place, was disposed of in the same way.
 The cases of Thomas J Badger and Ralph Hern, charged with trespass on railroad car were disposed of by a suspension of judgment
 The case of Julius Gerber, the bo- gus fireman, who was arrested by De- tective Donnelly last week, charged with idleness. was nolled.
 The case against Morris Crotty. charged with keeping his saloon at 161 Ashmun street open at unlawful hours, was continued until November 21. The case against Gottfried Kollert charged with being found in the saloon at un- lawful hours was continued until November F.

 Coonan saw Taylor and Campbell bear ing the crate of eggs down Broad street and placed them under arrest
 Because of their age, Judge Bishop gave another chance to Lewis Mcdonald and Arthur Little, boys residing in Fair Haven, who were charged with att tempted burglary. The boldness of the pair as told by the testimony of wit nesses in the court would have put the deeds of the professionals in the trade to blush, Although but fifteen years of age, the two boys Sunday evening tried to force an entrance into Peter Peterson's saloon, at 224 James street, expecting to rob the till. Judge Bishop continued the cases until Jan uary i, nisl. He said that if the boys came before him in the meantime that he would bind them over to the superior court.

CALLAHAN REPORT Ell LED

Lawyer William l.. Bennett, in behalf of the grievance committee of the New Haven count bar, sent to Judge FL mer of the superior court yesterday morning the report signed by himself and Lawyers w. B. Stoddard and George E. Terry, of their inquiry into the charges preferred against Lawyer David Callahan for the alleged misman- agement of the funds of the Williams estate. The members of the committee refused to disclose any of the contents of the report.
 Judge Elmer yesterday afternoon is- sued a citation at the request of the committee, as contained in the report, which was given to Deputy Sheriff George A. Stevens to serve on MT. Cal lahan. A copy of the committees re- port, 1t was said, was also given to Deputy Sheriff Stevens to serve. The citation asks MT. Callahan to make an- swer on November 2S, or two weeks from yesterday
 The filing of the report and the is- sue of the order to answer were all the information obtainable about the pro- ceedings yesterday. What the report contains as finding of facts ie deduce1 from the fact itself of filing the report and the issue of the order by Judge Elmer, and that is that the charges are worthy of the consideration of an Inquiry by judge of the superior court.

 The substance of the argument of Messrs.

 Corporation Counsel Robertson at- tackled the merits of the plaintiffs com- plaint on four grounds: First, that White and Maroney had been discharg- ed for reasons not political; second, that failing to show that the positions of as- sistant superintendent of streets and engineer of the road roller are vacant, White and Maroney cannot be reinstat- ed without Welch and Mills having their say in court; third. Maroney not hold ing a certificate from the civil service board, it was Troups duty to discharge him, and Maroney cannot invoke the protection of the civil service rules when he held office in violation of them; fourth, that the civil service board hav- ing authority to make rules pertaining to appointments for the offices involved and not having done so, the discharge of White and Maroney was within the discretion of the ordinary executive off, cer.

 That noted craft known as the Hol- land boat, which Is expected to revolu- tionize naval warfare as much as did the formidable little Monitor of civil war times, arrived in the harbor from | Greenport Monday evening and remain ed tied up to Heaton's wharf all night. Accompanying the Holland boat was the fine steam yacht Josephine, which Is owned by the Holland company and used to transport their experts and friends during the trial trips of the fa- nous torpedo craft. The boat is com manded by Captain Cable of New Mill ford, this state.
 Aboard the Holland are six men be- sides the captain. They are the en- gineer, electrical engineer, mate, chief machinist, assistant machinist and gunner. There is room enough in the boat for all, although their quarters are naturally very small. Since the Hol- land was manned her crew have been sleeping on the Josephine, which is a fine, commodious craft. t The Holland Is made of iron not much more than half an inch in thick ness. She Is fifty-three feet over all and draws eight feet She carries a dyna- mite gun and fires torpedoes from the tubes at the bow. The gun has been fired many times with great success. The boat can travel eight and one-half knots an hour on the surface and about | the same under water.
