Today is Manning's tobacco opening
dav. 4 public dinner, the contribution Of
the merchants is in progress in the Pres
byterian church grove. There are a num-
Der of prizes to be given away also donated
by our enterprising merchants, thus show
ing that cur business men are lending
every possible aid to induce the tobacco
here. We think our merchants should be
commended for the spirit of progress they
display in contributing lot Of prizes and
public dinner They also propose to sell
goods cheaper than any other market IN
this section Of the State, not excepting
Charleston. Notwithstanding the fact that
the grades at the Peoples warehouse were
poor, the thousands Of pounds OF tobacco
brought satisfactory prices; some few
cards were tucked, but this will happen
everywhere Mr. Mason is perfectly salts
fed with the days work and Will continue,
as he has started to give the people mar
ket where sharp practice and tricks Will not
be tolerated, and where every effort Will be
made to give the growers full market prices.
I It was through the efforts OF Mr.. Mason
that our market had so many buvers on
the floor today. \ large number Of ladies
attended the sale and enjoyed the music OF

Cess with the lnsarrsctien
when the Dry Season Degins.

San FRANCISCO, July sI.--An oficer Of
one Of the volunteer regiments now In the
Philippines has written the following let
ter to the Associated Press:
manila. July q.
THE arrival Of the rainy season finds
the insurrecticn az vigorous as II has been
any time since tho outbreak. The insur-
gent armies are well recruited, notwith-
standing Their heavy losses. and are weIl
fed and clothed. They have proflted by
their Ave months of warfare against the
Americans. They are fast adopting Amer
lean tactics and are becoming better dis
cipiined and more skiliful In the use Of
Their weapons every day.
Zone hundred thousand solclers should
be here ready for business by the begin
ming OF the dry season In November. Gar
risons could then be stationed at strategic
points. a continuous warfare cannot be
carried on In this enervat.ng climate by
the same troops. Frequent reIiefs are
necessary. Troops should not be kept here
longer than year. Men from northern
climate retain their native vigor six or
eight months after arrival here, and then
begin to succumb to the var.ous ailments
OF tropical weather. This Is exempiified in
the cases OF the volunteers and those reg
uiars whe have been In the Philippines
since last summer. The most Of them are
saturated with malaria. many have rheu-
mat.sm and all are greatly debiliiatei.
They are unfit for further duty. and re-
cuperation seems slow and unsatisfactory.
As II has been with them. so II u likely
TO be with their successors.
The s.Op.oo people OF the Philippines
are as highly c.viiixed az the l2 cocoon OF
Mexico. II the american people will I'm
agine the United States 10 have acquired
Mexico against her win and to be engaged
in an at,eppt TO put down a universal re-
beii.on OF the Mexicans with 2o.ofD troops.
they will have duplicate picture AT close
range OF the situation In the Philippines,
with the exception that the climate Of the
Philippines ts from ten TO nsteen degrees
more tropical than that Of Mexico"

NO CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS,
President Holds They Are Not Needed
In the PhiIippines-ReEul
VIII he Sent.

Washington, June 3.-The cabinet at
its meeting Friday decided that there
was no present necessity for the enlist
ment of volunteers.
The situation was gone over very
fully before this conclusion was
reached. The president stands ready at
any time it may appear necessary to
authorize the enlistment of the volun-
teers should more men be deemed
necessary, although hoping that such a
contingency may not arise. Gen. Otis
is to be given the 10000 men for whom
he has asked. The additional 5000 or
6,00O troops to make up the 10000 are
to be taken from the regulars now serv-
ing in Porto Rico Cuba and this coun-
try. The rainy season is now on in the
Philippines and aggressive field opera
tons will have to be suspended for a
couple of months at least.

Train Robbers Use Dynamite,

Omaha, Neb., June "A special to
the Bee from Laramie, Wyo., says: The
Union Pacific transcontinental west
bound mail train was held up, dyna.
mited and robbed at one o'clock FRIDAY
morning near Wilcox, lonely station
on the Wyoming division. The hold-uI
was accomplished by waving a danger
signal short distance east of Wilcox
bridge. 1t is not known at this time
the amount secured from the express
car safe. The hold-up occurred in dis.
trict where escape to the mountains is
comparatively easy.
Salt Lake City, June "A special to
the Tribune from Rawlins, Wyo., saws
the robbers at Wilcox obtained S36, OOC
in money and about $4,000 worth OF
diamonds, and that large amount OF
money in bills was destroyed by the ex.
plosion.

quilted without a New Trial
Esterhazy Confesses.

Paris. June st is practically ad-
mitted the decision of the court of cas-
sation will be a complete acquittal OF
Dreyfus without an order for new
trial. This means that Dreyfus will be
free man on Sunday.
Paris, June 3.-Maj. Esterhazy, who
has been accused repeatedly of writing
the Dreyfus bordereau. has admitted
his guilt. In company with a conf
dental friend he called at the office OF
the London Chronicle Friday night and
confessed the authorship. He declared
it was written under instructions and
that the chief of the army, who, he said
had abandoned him, knew of the entire
affair and shared the responsibility
This fact Esterhazy declared, he could
prove positively. Efforts, he said, had
been made to secure his silence. but
now neither threats nor emoluments
would deter him.

GOLD GOES ABROAD.
shipment of 81 ,0OO,OOO to Europe by
IA New York Bank Surprises
Will Street.

New York, June 1.-The announce
ment made late Thursday afternoon
that the National City bank would ship
Sl.000,0G0 i'll gold to Europe on the
steamship Lucania Saturday was a sur
prise to Wall street. Although sterling
exchange has ruled rather high. il has
been maintained by bankers that there
was little likelihood of any gold eX-
ports at the present time. This view,
which has been held by some of the
best authorities in the banking bust
ness, has led 10 the belief that the
present shipment was arranged by the
bears i'll the market, who have been
industriously working for lower prices.
Another view, taken by conservative
men, is that the United States is produc-
ihg SGT, coo, 600 in gold annually and now
has on hand more of the precious metal
than any other country, and can there
fore easily afford to send several mil
lions to Europe.

of Franklin county, attorney general of
the state, member of the supreme court.
and during four campaigns chairman
of the state committee.
The platform adopted rcaflirms the
principles declared by the st. Louis
platform and indorses President Nc
kinley's administration.
In reference to state matters the gen
eral assembly is commended for the
passage of an antitrust law and such
unlawful combinations are denounced
as inimical to the interests of the peo-
pie, and the party is pledged to such
further legislation as experience may
determine necessary to prevent the
formation and operation of such
iniquitous and dangerous combina-
tions. \ protest is made against lynch
ing and the Ohio centennial at Toledo
in 1902 is strongly favored.
