ON THE LIQUOR QUESTION.
Rev. DIR. Mitchell Advises Everybody
to Abstain From Drinking.

Rev. DIR. Charles E. Mitchell preached
on THE Church and the Safoon'' at the
Hennepin avenue Methodist church last
evening. The gist of his sermon was
that neither the church nor the legis
lature can accomplish a great deal of
reformation in drunkenness unless So
clety places ban on those persons who
drink, and who sell liquor in any form.
IF man sells liquor by the glass"
said DR.. Mitchell, ''he is called a. Gin
singer and many other equally unpleas-
ant names, but if he be q GistilIer or n
manufacturer on a large scale, he be-
comes a. respectable member of society,""
DR.. Mitchell explained that he does not
consider every man that drinks liable to
eternal punishment, nor does he condemn
all who are not total abstainers, but that
he advises everyone to let liquor alone
He spoke of the growing tendency among
the railroads to refuse to employ per-
son who uses strong drink, and of the
good effects the edict has had He be-
neVes the country is getting better in
this respect daily. and looks forward to
time when prohibition will be possible.

re1ormer that attacks the church,, said
he. I'VE must not encourage such men

christianity has fought the curse of
LIQUOR for years, and has been the
foundation of all the attacks against the

church and such a man as Mr.. WooIlev

battle together, instead Of being on bad
terms with each other"
In conclusion, Dr. Mitchell said that

MAY NOT HAVE BEEN MURDER
But Police Are St1II Investigating
the Peck Case.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-The police have
settled down to the theory that Charles
S. Peck, the aged real estate dealer,
found dead early Thursday morning on
Seventeenth street, was not murdered,
but after having fallen in the street and
fraeturing his skull, was robbed This
theory was strengthened today by a story
told by James Layburn, truckman, who
says he ran across the body early Thurs
day morning while on the way to work,
and at the time two or three men and
women were standing by it. He turned
the body over, saw that life was extinct
and then notified Officer Patrick Kehoe,
the policeman on that post. One of he
women, then remarked that she had
seen the man fall. Layburn declared that
Kahoe had paid no attention to the re-
mark.
One outcome of the story was that
Chief Devery at once suspended Kahoe,
who 1t was charged did not properly re-
port the case.
John S. Niron is locked up in connec-
ton with the matter, but just what he
had to do with it, has not yet been given

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. SO-The
Democratic poll takers finished the sixty
day poll some days ago. A few scat

The poll sustains the Democratic asser-

SECRETARY HESTER'S AN.
NUAL COTTON REPORT.
Last Crop Nearly Two Million
Short Of '9S. Southern Mill
1akings. Interesting Figures
to Follow.

New Orleans, Sept. 1.-The
totals of Secretary Hester's an
nual report of the cotton crop of
the United States were promul
gated today. They show receipts
of cotton at all United States
ports Tor the year Of G.734 3G4
bales against 1913 ,426 last year;
overland to northern mills / .161,
l99 against 1,345, ,G23; southern
consumption taken direct from
interior of cotton belt, ,54O,S63
against 1,353,79l, making the
crop of tie United States for 1899
1900 amount TO 9,436,4l6 bales
against 11,274,S4O last year and
II, 10000 the year before.
Mr. Hester has made his usual
investigation into the consump
ton of every. cotton mill in the
south, including wooden mills
that have used cotton and the re
suits show a total Of 1,597,112
bales, but of this 56,249 bales
were taken from ports included
in port receipts. This total
shows that the mills Of the south
have used up 1918 bales more
than in 1898 against a consump.
ton by the north of 100000.
He makes the actual cotton crop
of Texas, including Indian ter
ritory, 2,590,512, or say 964,579
bales less than last year. His
reports on the cotton crop for the
different States show that in thou
sands Of bales: North Carolina
raised 561; South Carolina 921;
Georgia 1909; Alabama 1,O44;
Florida so; Mississippi 1880;
Louisiana 625; Arkansas $50;
Tennessee 35S and Texas 1851.
South Carolina in this instance
includes Kentucky and Virginia :;
Tennessee includes Oklahoma,
Missouri, Kansas and Utah; Texas
includes Indian Territory.
Mr.. Hester's full report which
will be issued tomorrow will con
tain interesting facts in relation
to the enormous increase in the
spindles of southern mills and TO
new mills now building. He will
also show that while the past
crop was 1,836,424 bales less
than that of last year it produced
in money $61 ,012,000 more.
