Boycott on B. B. & M. F.. Line Was
Not Lifted.

Last night there was a special ses-
sion of the Belmont Central Trades
and Labor Assembly at Bellaire, to
consider the proposition of repeating
the boycott placed upon the B., B. &
M. f. street car line. The Ohio dele
gates were in favor of lifting the boy
colt, but the three delegates from
Wheeling and the dozen or more strik-
ers accompanying them, were firmly
opposed to such action. After long
and spirited debate it was decided to
leave matters in statu quo and await
developments.
During the meeting it was officially
announced that the employees on the
Ohio side have been organized, and
their executive board was present at
the meeting.
The Ohio delegates contended that
the Belmont Assembly had the author
ity to lift the boycott, while those
holding the opposite view claimed it
would require the joint action of both
the Belmont and Ohio Valley Trades
Assembly to accomplish that end
AS the meeting appeared to be hope
lessly divided in sentiment, it was de-
cided at a late hour to leave matters
as they have stood for the past seven
weeks.

Their music shows improvement each

their work as their parents possibly
can be-a pride which may be pardon

SUBMARINE wREcKER


There is q strange. freakish boat ~.
ing on the Atlantic Highlands pier, N.
Y. It has the long. low, rakish
lines of q mud scow, and Is the in
nocent submarine boat Argonaut, in
vented and owned and captained by
Simon Lake, of Baltimore.
The Argonaut is designed for sub
marine wrecking work and II IL fitted
with complete appliances. including
searchlights, small derrick. and
other parapherpalia. 1t has come
from Baltimore under fits own steam,
taking the Chesapeake and Delaware
canal, and thence the outside route to
New York. 1t Is not fast. but makes
about FIVE knots an hour on the sur
face. It is brought here to be exhib-
tied with a view to demonstrating its
utility.
Exactly how the Argonaut will come
up the harbor Is not known. 1t can
either navigate the surface of the
water in what oldtime mariners con-
slider the legitimate way, or it may
take . fancy to dive and rumble along
the bottom Of the sea until its nsviga-
tors think It time to bob up serenely
and show the world who and what they
ere and what they propose to do.

NEW NAVAL LIGHT.
II II Extremely Bright and Cannot
BE 0uenched By Either Water
or Earth.

A new and highly important inven.
tion was tested at the German naval
maneuvers at Berlin. 1t was In tha
shape of q Greek Phoenician fire. i'm
vented By Berlin engineer.
It ignites on contact with the air or
water, and cannot be quenched By
either water or earth. 1t burns with =
brilliant fame. exceeding big search
lights, and IL can be sunk under wa.
ter or underground, and when brought
to the surface instantly bursts into
flame at any desired point. 1t was test.
ed during the night evolutions of the
Island Of Heligoland and of Kiel and
proved most efficient in detecting the
presence Of the enemy.
Emperor William visited Stettiu TO
open the new harbor. During the
course of speech which he delivered
in reply to the address of welcome Of
the burgomaster his majesty said:
"Our future lies on the water, and l.
rs lord and king OF the land. express
gratitude to you for having brought
Etettin to this degree of prosperity. I
hope, expect and might also say de-
mand further development a the same
rate of progress"
Work has been commenced on the
new mammoth dock at the imperial
xhipyards Of Kiel. II will be $50 feet
long and 65 feet deep. It Is intended
TO dock large ironclads Of the Kaiser

The Cotton Crop is Short.

Pretty fair information as to the
size of the entire cotton crop of the
world is now obtainable, and the in
formation already in confirms the be-
lief in short crop. This is true as
to the African and Asiatic crops, as
well as the American crop, and as a
consequence our farmers may conf
IDENTIFY expect to realize 8 cents for
that portion of their crop that yet
remains unsold. We publish below
the N. o. Picayune's summing up Of
the opinions of its correspondents,
which, although a little disposed to
defer to the trade spectators, is still
quite fair to the farmers in stating
the conditions. 1t says:
In another part of this mornings
issue, will befOund our final report on
the cotton crop OF 1899. Theconsen-
sus of opinion among our correspon-
dents is to the following effect:
While some sections report rela-
lively good result, the extreme short
crop view is, in the main, fully sus-
tanned. In some districts, there lie q
possibility OF a small top crop, but the
expectation in that direction is still
more or less enveloped in doubt.
The wonderfully fine weather has
favored the piekers, and the harvest is,
Is . rule, approaching completion.
Most farmers have been induced, by
the relatively high level of prces, to
market their crops with all possibleex-
petition.
The smaller view Of the yield ID con-
flrmed by the difficulty experienced by
the on mills in procuring seed.
The Southern mills, in the belief
that the yield is deficient, are laying
in stocks, at prices distinctly above
values prevailing at the outports.
The exhibit viii undoubtedly tar
the creduiity of the trade, but We
are fully assured that our corresp0n-
dents have reported the facts exactly
a. they ses then. Time alone can tell
who ie right and who il wrong in the
matter. The figures ofthe movement
must soon afford q fairly clear idea
Of the ultimate result.
