Second Day of the Southern Industrial
Convention Proves an Interesting
One-An Increase in the Number oi
Delegates In Attendance.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 5.-The second
days session of the Southern Industrial
convention opened today with very
large attendance, many delegates hav.
ing arrived on the early morning traina
who were not here yesterday. The hall
was scarcely large enough to admit the
delegates and the general public was
turned away.
The first business on the program was
the report of the committee on organiza-
ton, but the committee was unable to
report. There is q strong sentiment in
favor of continuing President Hargrovs
for another year, but at the same time
there are several delegations here who
have favorites to press for the Office.
Shortly after 10 O'Clock Cardinal Glib
bons, escorted by a delegation of promi-
nent citizens, cleric and lay, entered the
hall and was given most cordial greet
ing. His eminence, dressed III the red
robes of his high office, opened the con-
vention with prayer. He said he hoped
that the dawning century would not
close until the prophecy of Isaiah had
been fulfilled, when swords would be
beaten into plOwshares and sickles.
President Hargrove turned the gaval
over to Vice President Sidney Storey and
the latter introduced DIR. Lyman Hall,
president of the Georgia School of Tech
nology, who spoke on technical educa-
ton.
At the conclusion of DR.. Halls ad.
dress papers on the subject of technical
education were also read by Professor
Brown Ayres of Tulane university, Pro-
fessor r. B. Fulton of tie University OF
Mississippi and Professor j. V. Calhoun,
state superintendent of education of
Louisiana. A general discussion of the
subject followed.
A paper on "The Railroads CT the
South and Southern Industrial Dovel.
opment" was read by Hon Stafford Ber-
ney of Mobile, and a Paper on Foreign
and COastwise Trade q Necessary Fac
tor In Southern Industrial Develop
ment" by n. B. Kelly, secretary Of the
Trades league of Philadelphia.
Jackson, Miss, Waco. Tex, and Mem

Morgan thanking the convention for the

''The prospects of success grow
brighter every day. Costa RIGA and
Nicaragua are in happy accord with our
government in making preliminary
agreements of vital Importance.

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

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 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
tiInately fail. I 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 years 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 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.
