Not Much 10 GIVE Out at Democratic
state Headauarters

Removal of Bryan badges became the
order at Democratic State headquarters as
early as 10 o'clock last night. BY that time
the returns from the State began TO come
I'm pretty steadily. and the ratio of Repub-
lican gains indicated a plurality of some
thing like forty or fifty thousand. The
Assistant Secretary Howard Gates said
plaintively: well, 1 guess we carried
Texas. anyway" John Rockford, who
knows the meaning of defeat by previous
experience, vainly trying to hearten
o few of his friends in the reception room
just outside Chairman Martins securely
barred den. Rockford made the wild dec
laration that Bryan would be run again, to
which one of fhe discouraged responded:
II guess he will have to be run, for he
won't have the strength to run himself.
One lone Democrat vowed he would con-
tsnue to wear his portrait of Bryan for -
said he, sit is the emblem of liberty"
Chairman Martin made an early start
last night at his old tactics OF refusins
to allow newspaper men access TO the re-
turns as they were coming into his room
by leased wire. AT 8 O'Clock he began Ia
deny even a glimpse of his person to re-
Iorters. This surliness said to have
been caused by report sent to New York
from Democratic State headquarters by
a newspaper man, to the effect that Mr.
Martin mad conceded Indiana by $1,000
The chairman grew very wroth when ne
learned how ne had been betrayed" He
declared that he had made no such state

ether regards, il is not likely that he die

IL is said that one reporter who managed
to get into the room was removed witt
some little show of force. The indications
at 10 o'clock were that the headquarters
would not be kept open much longer, and
that Mr.. Bryan's worshipers in this viciu.

many hours previously-of going to beG

DEMOCRATS WE'RE GLOOMY.
JOY Fled ms Soon as the Returns Be
gan to Come In.

Mayor Taggart and his henchmen at
Democratic headquarters had about fifteen
minutes of glee early last evening, when
the first returns from Marion county in
dicated Democratic gains. Their merri-
ment was soon changed into despair by the
returns taking a sudden shift in the other
direction. AS the Democratic losses piled
UP with discouraging regularity, the gloom
in the apartment deepened, until finally il
seemed as though joy had winged her way
from local Democratic countenances, never
more to return.
With Spartan fortitude a few of the
truly loil' held on until the returns in
dicated that the Republican plurality In
this county might reach as high as 5000
when a silent exodus began. By 10 O'Clock
the mourners were distressingly few

PREDICTED OVER 10000.
Senator Beveridge INDICATED as n
Political Prophet.

Senator Albert j. Beverage spent part
of yesterday evening at Republican State
committee headquarters, and with others
listened to the reading of returns. He was
much gratiied over the great victory of the
Republican national ticket and was espe-
cially elated with the prospects for big
Republican majority in Indiana.
AT an early hour Senator Beveridge re-
iterated the statement he made two weeks
ago that Indiana would give a Republican
majority of 10000. For two or three weeks
Senator Beverage had insisted that this
would be the figure in this State. The re-
ports received last night indicated that the
senator was not far wrong in his guess,
and as a prophet he was indicated. AT
midnight the senator said he thought the
further returns would increase instead OF
diminish the net Republican gain.

THE CLOSE OF THE CENTURY.

We are reminded by an advertisement
in todays paper of Turner's North Caro-
lima Almanac for 1901, that this year
will close the nineteenth century. For
nearly three quarters of century this
"old reliable publication has been the
State Standard Almanac. 1t grows year
by year in usefulness and popular favor.
and has disseminated more valuable in
formation to the people Of the State than
any other periodical of it's kind ever pub
lished The Ennis Publishing Co., the
proprietors and publishers, has made
the -oxt years edition indeed premium
number, in honor of the close of the con-
fury now waning. There are almanacs
and almanacs, but this trustworthy insti-
tuition has gained a reputation for ac-
curacy and reliable information equaled
by no other publication of its kind. May
it love long, not only to usher in the
twentieth century, but many other cen
turtles to come.

THEY HAD THE COW.
Officers Beaslsy and Belvin Arrest Two Brothers
For Stealing Cow.

Henry and Bob Morris, two young
white men, who give their address as
Purnell, were sent to Jail here yester-
day for stealing COW. The cow was
the property of Mr.. w. n. O'Neal, OF
Newiight township. The cow was
stolen Friday night, and Mr.. O'Neal
discovered his loss yesterday morning.
He tracked the COW to Raleigh. arriv-
ing here just in time to appear as a
witness against the men, who had al
ready been arrested for the theft by
Officers Beasly and Belvin.
They attracted attention and arous-
ed suspicion by their peculiar con-
duct. The first thing that aroused
suspicion was that they offered to sell
a COW, evidently worth $500 or $4,000,
for $500. Then, at different places
they gave different names, and a~Va-
riety of other discriminating circum-
stances appeared, and when Mr..
O'Neal arrived in his search for the
COW. the evidence against them was
complete. On the trial. one of them
tried to throw the blame of the affair
on the other, and Bob Morris admit
ted that the other had no part in tax
ing the cow. but as he had assisted
in the attempt to sell he was sent to
Jail with his brother. who appeared
very solemn and refused to make any
statement.
They are both farm laborers and
Mr.. O'Neal having known them BOTH
easily identified them. They were I'M
able to give bail and were placed IN
Jail to await the action of the next
grand jury.

FROST WILL SEND COTTON UP.
Meanwhile Farmers Are Not Sacrificing Their
Cropg.

Touching the cotton situation and its
price, Haven & Stout, of New York. in
their weekly letter issued yesterday,
have this to say:
Speculative activity in the cotton
market has been interfered with by the
approach of the election, which naturally
restricts the operations of outside in
terests. The volume of bushes has con-
seuuently been reduced and the trading
is essentially professional. Sentiment has
been more or less mixed, although the
tendency Of the market seemed in the
earlier days of the week to point to
rally from the recent depression. The
large short interest formed on the de-
cline exhibited signs of nervousness and
their covering responsible for the rather
sharp rise which actually occurred. The
advance, however. attracted no support
from Liverpool and brought in only
moderate amount of fresh outside buy
ing here. Receipts have continued large
and the principal bullish argument was
the fear of frost which grows nA'e
acute every week in view of the lateness
OF the season and the probability that
whatever growth is still in progress may
be suddenly cut off 1t was generally be-
lieved on Wednesday and Thursday that
the expected frost was at hand and
renewed covering movement set in on
this idea, although it proved to be un-
founded, the low temperatures only ex-
tending to extreme Northern points in
the cotton belt. The market at the end
of the week was nervous, with renewed
scattered selling of long holdings, under
which prices receded again to some ex
tent, while it is noted that considerable
section OF the trade is anticipating a
sharp rally the moment there is any de-
cided change in weather conditions at
the South. Advices from various South
ern points indicate that the cotton move
ment during November is liable to fall
off materially from the October figures,
as there is very little cotton left in the
Eastern cotton growing States. The
Government crop report due next week,
is awaited with interest and will proba-
bly, have considerable effect. Spots have
been rather heavy, but there is no ma
terial change and the election may re-
suit in a considerable alteration in the
position of the cotton goods trade, which
if favorable. would have an effect on
cotton prices.
