prettiest exhibitions of the season. The
score was to /. and though the error

FROM FIVE TO TEN PER CENT.
This Seems to be the Increase in the Cotton
Acreage.
(Bv the Associated Press.)


New York, June 13.-Dispatchcs to
Dun's Review from the entire cotton belt
make a most satisfactory showing. I'm
favorable weather condition during the
opening weeks of the season injured much
of the seed and made replanting neces-
sary. This adds to the cost of the crop,
but does not prevent full yield. There
seems to be from five to ten per cent in
crease in the acreage under cultivation
and while damage undoubtedly has been
severe in some sections, fairly good
weather from now to the beginning Of
picking would insure an abundant yield
Excessive rain has made the growth of
grass unusually rapid, and the scarcity
Of labor. together with large grain crops,
makes it difficult and expensive to keep
the fields in good condition. Injury from
insects is light in most States, except for
boil weevil in parts of Texas, and lice in
regions where moisture has been excep-
tionally heavy. These pests are not as
harmful as usual, however, and aside
from the probable increase in cost, the
planters have cause for qualification.

LEE OF THIS STATE
The Brave Young Officer
Killed at Lipa.
He Leaves at West Point Memories Of Qualities
That Should be Comfort 10 His
Friends.

To the Editor: Another name has
been added to the honored roll of the
sons of North Carolina who have given
up their lives for their country, and
another son of West Point has yielded up
the extreme measure of soldiers devo-
tion and by the highest test proven his
loyalty to the motto of his Alma Mater:
Duty, Honor, Country"
Walter Hatch Lee, Lieutenant, En-
gineer Corps, U. s. Army, killed in action
near Lipa, Luzon, Philippine Islands,
June 10, 1901
When this announcement was flashed
across the seas it produced no deeper or
more genuine shock of regret than at
West Point, where it seems but a mo-
ment since Lieutenant Lee, proud of fin
ishing his long course with distinction,
bade his many friends farewell to enjoy
at his home the few days of leave the
exigencies of the Government service al
lowed him before his long journey to Ma
nila.
Born in Norh Carolina Lieutenant Lee
entered the Military Academy from the
Asheville district in June, 1897. when IS
years and 10 months old. He graduated
with his class on February Is, 1901, the
date of graduation being advanced by the
Secretary of War on account of the great
need for officers. He was given a leave
of absence to March 10 and arrived in
Manila April 19-not two months ago
when he joined his Company B of the
First Battalion, U. S. Engineers.
Rushed from the halls of learning to
the field of battle, young Lee has died
soldiers death. He leaves here the mem
cry of an engaging personality, kind
ever helpful and sympathetic bearing,
with a record for straightforward, manly
and efficient performance of every duty
that should be a comfort to his relatives
and friends.
The Military Academy is proud of her
sons and proud that they are willing to
go forth to the ends of the earth. sep
arated from all that is dear to them. to
labor with cheerfulness and a success that
the world does not quickly see for the up
lifting and the civilization of alien and
less fortunate peoples and the death of
Lieutenant Lee in the very beginning of
his career deprives the Government of an
able, conscientious and highly trained
soldier.
To his many friends here the news of
his death, on the very day when, IN the
normal course OF events he would have
graduated from the Academy, comes with
peculiar sadness. w. c. r.

HUNT FOR FOSTERS MURDERER,
A Dozen of Edwards Companions Held in a
Cabin Under Guard.
(By the Associated Press.)

Shreveport, La, June 13.-This city and
vicinity have been in state of feverish
excitement and unrest since yesterday
when John Gray Foster, a prominent
planter, was shot and killed by Prince
Edwards, a negro employed on the Foster
plantation five miles east of this city.
Armed posses of white men have been
securing the country for miles around in
an attempt to capture Edwards. A dozen
or more negroes are under arrest In
Kennebew's store and their fate tonight
is uncertain. Foster was widely known
and very popular. He was a brother-in-
law of Governor McMillin, of Tennessee,
and belonged to one of the Oldest families
in this State.
There had been bad feeling for some
time past between the negroes and over
seers on the Foster plantation, and Foster
was appealed to to settle the differences.
The planter started for the plantation
and upon reaching negro cabin he was
fired upon and killed. There were dozen
or more negroes in the cabin and they
broke and ran in all directions. The
oyerseers were quickly Joined by white
citizens, and it was not long before all
the negroes were arrested, a single eX-
ception being Prince Edwards, who did
the shooting. Posses were quickly form
ed and started on hunt for the negro,
but as yet have made no further arrests.
There were many wild rumorS afioat
throughout the day, the most sensational
being that the negroes in the Kennebrew
store were in imminent peril of being
lynched. This rumor proved to be untrue.
a oh M tc are r1 a p0i ne
the prisoners. The store where the ne
groes are confined is guarded by a posse
f25 men armed with Winchester rifles.
and unless sentiment changes the dispo-
sition tonight would indicate that the ma
jority, if not all the prisoners will be let
off with thorough whipping. Edwards,
if caught, will be burned or lynched.
There is much feeling against "Proph-
ct" Smith and Edward Washington, both
of whom are under arrest Smith is be-
lieved to be at the bottom of all the
trouble while Washington is said to have
been active in aiding Edwards to escape.
Houston, Texas, June 13.-The negroes
who are corralled at Shreveport were
taken from Houston during the winter by
a negro preached named Smith, calling
himself elijah the Prophet" He cre-
atedea great furor among ignorant blacks
by predicting dire disaster and finally
Louisiana in order to avoid death in the
persuaded about 200 of them to go to
prophesied destruction of Houston. 1t
was ascertained afterwards that Smith
was acting as an agent for planters who
we're short of help and had used his in
fiuence as an exhorter to get the negroes
to go with him.
