FIRST COTTON BLOSSOMS.
Three of Them Shown at Huntsville
 the Same Day.

Huntsville, July 2.-(Special)-Madiso County's three first cotton blooms were brought to the city yesterday from the plantations of Thomas Young, Gen. Sam Moore and Blount Watkins. The first bloom generally appears in this section during the middle of June.
 Reports from over the Tennessee val lev of the cotton prospects show that the warm weather and rains of the last few weeks have materially benefited the growing crops and improved the pros pects for a fair yield. The net increase of acreage in this section is 10 per cent. larger than in 1900 Planting was late, but this disadvantage has been overcome bv the unexpected favorable weather. The plant is small, but the yield will be good There has been neither too much nor too little rain and the fields have been kept free from grass
 Replanted crops in the overfiowed river sections are doing as well as might be expected, and if the same kind of weather continues the bottom land planters will not lose so heavily as they expected by the floods.
 Wheat in this county is doing very badly. Rust has reduced the yield 50 per cent Some acres that were expected to produce twenty-five bushels of the grain will produce only from eight to ten.

THE MACH|NISTS
 WHO ARE ON STRIKE Held a Meeting at Avondale
 Yesterday REPORTS PLEASED THEM They Said Situation On Southern and the A. G. S. Was satisfactory-Res- oIutions of Carpenters and Join-
 ers' Union No. 75 Received.
REPORTS PLEASED THEM

A meeting of the striking machinists of the Southern Railway and the Alabama Great Southern Railroad was held at Avondale yesterday morning and reports from different committees were received. These reports the strikers say, are satis- factory and favorable to their side of the dispute.
 The following resolution from the Car penters' and Joiners' Union Mo- 75 was read to those presents:
 "In view of the fact that there is a great principle involved in the machin- ists' strike on the Alabama Great South ern and the Southern Railroad, and
 Whereas, The good and welfare of union labor of every class in the entire district Is to some extent at stake,
 Resolved, First-That we, the carpen- ters, think the machinists' strike just one and that their demands are reason able and should be granted.
 "Second-That we admire the courage they have manifested in standing by union principles and the very gentleman ly manner in which they have conducted themselves since the first day they left the shops.
 ''Third-That we feel interested in this strike because of the fact that we use more material that is being daily shipped over these roads than any other class of merchandise.
 Therefore we feel 1t our duty to stand by our brother machinists In what we consider just cause. , 'Fourth-That we extend our sympa- thy to the machinists. and congratulate them on their effort to secure better pay and for a better class of machinists
 ''Fifth-We express our belfef that these railroad companies cannot afford to do otherwise than grant the demands made on them and we earnestly nope that an early settlement will be made But in the event such settlement Is not satisfactorily made, the machinists may rest assured that they will have the cooperation of the carpenters in an ad- iustment after the manner of union adjustment
 "Sixth-That we express the sentiment of every union organization in the en- tire district when we say that we do not believe in excessive demands on any man, or corporation, but we do believe that all men who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow should only work government hours and receive pay ac- cording tc the kind or class Of work they are able to do.
