COTTON MILLS MUST
BUY THEIR SUPPLIES
None of Them Have Yet Bought
Large Stocks.
PRICES WILL GO HIGHER SOON
And the Farmer Who Holds His Cot
ton Can Fix the Price For Ire
ceipts May Depress Prices Now
But Only Temporarily.

A decline of eight points yesterday
caused some of the Americus cotton
men to believe that the market would
rule even lower, but the loss was re-
gained ere the close of the days ses-
sion and the market remained steady.
It is quite possible that many farmers
may sell small holdings during the
month and particularly during the hol-
iday seas on, and this may cause de-
cline IN prices, but general reaction
will follow in the new year and high
6r level of prices will undoubtedly be
reached. The mills are obliged to
have the cotton, and the farmers have
only to fix the price, in reason, at
which they are willing to sell. Ten
cents will not stop the mills; it will
only enhance the price of shirts few
cents. It will only reduce somewhat
the enormous profits that manufactur-
ers have been making on five and six
cent cotton. 1t is the farmers time
now. He is entitled to at least ten
cents for good cotton-and he has only
to store and hold his bales until the
money is rendered to him, which will
be in thirty or sixty days.

COURT IS LOOKING
AFTER JAIL CASES,
Criminal Docket Was Entered Upon
Monday.
GRAND JURY STILL AT WORK
Most of Cases Tried Monday Were For
Petty 0fenses Negro Pleads Guilty
to Cow Stealing Blind Tiger Cases
Set For Trial Wednesday.

The court will be engaged all this
week in disposing of criminal business,
and start to this end was made Mon
day by clearing a half dozen cases from
the docket, while others of perhaps
more importance have been set for trial
at later date during the week.
The few jail cases to be tried were
first called by Judge Littlejohn Mon
day.
There were but very few of these, an
evidence that CRIME is on the decrease
in Sumter. The most serious, per-
haps, was that of Dock Crouch, a
negro, charged with COW stealing.
Crouch entered plea of guilty, and
the fine which the court will impose
would have bought several COWS. Jim
and Burrell Nixon, brothers, pleaded
guilty to simple larceny and were SEN
fenced to pay $50 each or serve term
of twelve months il the gang.
Jim Brown was tried for assault with
intent to murder, but the jury returned
a verdict of guilty of shooting at an
other, only.
R. B. Rucker, negro, was tried for
assault with intent to murder, but at a
late hour yesterday the jury had not
returned verdict. Dink Minis was
on trial for larceny after trust when
court adjourned for the day. There
are but few more jail cases to be tried.
Several bonded cases will be heard.
Those for alleged violation of the
liquor laws will be tried tomorrow,
while the case of the Whitley Grocery
Co. versus Heys is assigned for trial
Thursday.

CLOSING OUT ENTIRE STOCK.
E. D. Sheffield Co. to Sell Their Stock
immediately.

4mmCu4dtC4ys
Having accepted a position with the
Bank of Commerce, made vacant by
the resignation of Mr.. Lott Warren, I
am compelled to close out the entire
stock of goods of the E. d. Sheffield
Co. at once so that I may enter into
my bank position by Jan. 1st. In
order to accomplish this I realize that
we must sacrifice the goods to get rid
of them in so short time. This we
will do. We all know that merchant
who is in business to stay must charge
a reasonable profit on his goods or ul-
timately fail. [ propose to sell out our
entire stock at less than New York
cost, and much less than any merchant
can afford. It will pay you to buy
now at least year supply. You will
not have such an opportunity again
soon, Come and see us right away be-
fore the stock is badly broken. At
present our stock of shoes and cloth
ing is complete, and quality second to
none in this city. While our dry
goods stock is small there are yet
many fine pieces of goods to be dis
posed of. We will sell the entire stock
in a lump or in lots, at retail, or, in
fact, any way to suit the buyer. Re-
member, this IS your chance now to
get what you want for this stock must
be sold right away. Very respectful
ly, E. D. SHEFFIELD.
