Magistrate kelley's court Some
time ago the Road Commissioners

the Commissioners failed to notify
Amor Talley or get permission to
go to the quarry. Talley is the
tenant of the Petitedemange farm
and objected to the farmers break
ing his fences and trespassing on
his grounds. Accordingly he had
warrants sworn out for John s.,
Clarence, Louis Petitedmange and
Willard Handy. The cases will
come up for trial next Wednesday,

The Dry Spell Broken.

The prolonged dry spell has at
last been broken and crops are
again growing and farmers are
smiling as result. The long
looked for storm began yesterday
afternoon with gentle showers, but
during the night it assumed the
proportions of cloud burst, which
flooded city streets, and incidentally
washed them, saturated farm lands
to a depth Of several feet, and oth-
erwise contributed to the health,
happiness and prosperity Of the
people of the State. F,
Pasture has been greatly benefit
ed. Had the ram not arrived when
it did, some of the farmers about
this city would have been compelled
to feed their stock and the price Of
milk would have been increased.
Late potatoes have also been bene-
fitted to considerable extent and
there is now some hope of getting a
fair crop. Early potatoes were
badly damaged from lack Of rain
and the crop was very short. Corn
was more benefited than anything
else by the rain. This is the time
that corn needs rain. and some of
the farmers were afraid the crop
was doomed when the rain of yes
tcrday arrived.
What also pleased the farmers
was that the rain tell in the way it
did. They said that the water sank
into theground and remained where
it would do good. Sometimes the
rain falls in torrents for time and
then ceases, or falls in such way
that it runs into low places rather
than sinks into the ground, but the
ram OF yesterday was just the kind
needed to make things grow,

club and asked for financial assistance. MT. Stanley referred to the good feeling which existed between capital and labor in this district, which he attributed in measure to the good offices of the Commercial Club. While on the floor MT. Stanley took occa- sion to refer to matter which had been taken up by the Trades Council, which, he said was near to his heart-that of induc- ing the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company to restore to their former places the men who went out in the memorable strike of 1894. He eloquently portrayed the condition of these men, and thought that the policy of the company was against the spirit of American institutions. He stated that all other roads except the Louisville and Nashville had taken them back, and thought that the influence of the club would materially assist the council in bringing about the desired result. MT. Stanley spoke of the high regard in which the local officials of the road were held by the men, and expressed the belief that they would do all they could to get them back, but that it would be necessary to go to the higher officials.
 The matter was referred to the grievance committee.
 Colonel Hillyard, of the New Orleans Times-Democrat, was present at the meet ing by invitation, and made an interesting talk.
 Resolutions inviting the International Ty- geographical Union to hold its meeting in this city next year were adopted, after which the meeting adjourned.

BESSEMER LOOKS
 FOR STEEL PLANT And the Building of Iron Fur SHORT ROAD CONTEMPLATED Iv Valuable Ore Mines Twenty Miles Northwest of the City-Frictiou
 Between City Council and
 Police Commission,
SHORT ROAD CONTEMPLATE

Bessemer, August 4.-(Special)-It is tie concensus of opinion here that MT. Adlers plans for Bessemer embrace the building here of furnaces and a steel plant as well as the starting of the rolling mill. As is well known, MT. Adler is in control of some of the best coal veins in the state about twenty miles northwest of this city, to which it is contemplated to build a road connecting with the Sheffield road, which leads to his brown ore mines at Russell vile, which are said to be the finest and most prolific in the state. MT. Adler will thus mine his own coal and ore, make his own pig iron and steel and roll the steel ready for the market. While this is to a large extent mere speculation it is based on something more tangible than an idle dream on the part of enthusiastic citizens of Bessemer. The well known facts that MT. Adler has taken pains to purchase the water works and Hawkins spring, thus securing an ample water supply that he has been steadily purchasing Bessemer stock, and for many other reasons, it is believed and stated by people who should be in a position to know that his plans are as here stated. Whether they will be brought to fruition and how soon only the future can prove.
