The project to drain the Zuyder

some five years ago, when it was made
a part Of the Dutch Government pro-
grammc, has been withdrawn from the
States General by the new Ministry.
The reasons given for the withdraw
al of the scheme from the Netherlands
Parliament are the state Of the public
finances (requiring the practice of
economy and the fact that the low
ruling price for arabic land would
make the creation Of new agricultural
holdings undesirable. The ZuyGer Zee

Flax growing was begun in Argentina

until about twenty years back was any

some sixty-seven thousand acres were
planted in flax in the province Of Bue-

BLooDHoUNDs AND LYNcHING.
Mr.. Blacknall Thinks Vance County's Example
Worthy of Imitation

To the Editor: The Commissioners of
Vance county have ordered the purchase
Of blood hounds for me county If this

and the hounds after being purchased
were properly trained exercised and iso-
lated, and with a keeper or assistant
(and there should be an assistant) who,
at any hour day or night, could be easily
reached | believe it would to very
great extent lessen that most heinous
of all crimes; for the negro s fear of
blood hounds, like his fear of ghosts bad
luck signs, &C.. is bred in the bone.
Shooting, hanging nor burning at the
stake does not seem to abate this crime;
rather it appears on the increase, and
it is not because the criminal does not
hear of these lynchings for he is gem
orally vagabond, roaming over the
country, and from his very habits and
associates must hear of these shootings,
hangings and burnings. Is it not more
reasonable TO suppose that he does hear
of these lynchings, but that he thinks in
his case, as he is q stranger to his vic
finland he nearly always is-that the
chances of his capture are small? But
with the knowledge-and he would know
commission Of his crime blood hounds
would be on his tracks, this crime, as
we'll IS the lesser ones, would not. in my
opinion. be near SO often committed; but

COTTON GOODS MARKET
It Has Been reverish on Account Of Uncertain
Cotton Situation.
(By the Associated Press. J


Manchester, Sept S.-The market dur
ing the week past has been feverlsh and
unsettled owing to the uncertainties CT
the cotton situation. Actual business in
yarns and cloths has been meagIe. The
decline of the first half OF the week and
the subsequent recovery alike initiated
against operations. Until there shall he
some stability in cotton, serious re-
sumption of business is doubtful. It is
admitted that the statistical position in
Liverpool is such as to justify higher
rates in the immediate future, Supplies
are not coming forward sufficiently well
to relieve the market.
On the other hand, the position Of the
cloth market is very different from that
OF a year ago. Most outlets are well
supplied and there is no mood to pay
fancy prices in the face of certain
reduction within a few months. Ship
pers for India and China prefer to await
events. There were small miscellaneous
purchases for South America and the
levant to meet pressing requirements.

The FEAR OF S[PS|S
Otherwise the President S
Chances Are Good.
What MtdicsI authori les in Washington Think
of the Wounds Suffered by
Mr.. Mckinley,
washington Post, sunday,)

The physicians in Washington are still
condition Of President Mckinley from
all they can learn by tho newspaper re-
ports and official bulletins. There is by
no means a disposition to overlook the
gravity of the situation, but dozens of
local cases are cited where men have
been wounded in a somewhat similar
manner and have not only lived long
years afterward, but enjoyed perfect
-health.
DR.. II. l.. f. Johnson, when seen last
evening. made the following statement
regarding the chances of the President s
recovery: From all 7 have read re-
garding the injury to the President l
would say there is hardly sufficient data
upon which to base positive opinion.
All gunshct wounds of the abdomen are
serious conditions. The post-operative
histories and course in such cases differ
from all other operative work in the
abdomen. The two principal sources OF
danger are hemorrhage and shock. The
next serious danger is from septic infec-
ton. Hemorrhage and shock occur early
in tho history of these cases, while the
septic symptoms come later, varying
from the third day to one week.
There is no question that the surgi-
cal treatment given was as good as can
be secured anywhere in the country. It
is very unfortunate that such a large
city as Buffalo was not in possession OF
an X-ray apparatus, which could have
been used Immediately to determine the
