A PRESIDENTIAL KISS.



Mother Before Thou'nnds.
Baron Perro de Coubertin writes In
the Century OF Emile Loubot. presi-
dent OF the French Republic. record
ing incidentally one OF the little oe-
currenees that have made the chief or
ecutiye a popular man; What was IL
That Emile ioubct did 20 cause hirn
to be 80 highly thought OF by thoss
who gave him their votes7 II you
should ask the general public or In
terrogate current opinion or the press
you would be answered with the COM
monplace which one hears 80 Often u
similar cases "Oh." they would say
TO you. he didn't do anything" At
the famous Partisan tavern. the Black
Cat" where all the men OF the day
are touched on In popular ballads. the
answer was somewhat different, Tho
refrain OF political song that met
with great success year ago was thiRi
"Loubet. oh, how much hq
loved his motherl" And from stanEs
to stanza we find the good people oe
Montellmar. and even the entire
French people. represented as overs
como by the Affection which Emilio
Loubet showed for his mother that
most respectable peasant woman, who
lives In Montollmar. The explanation
OF this song Is an episode In the llto
OF the president. which rebounds COM
pletely to his honor. On the day that
he entered his native town for tho
first time as president OF the republic
he saw his mother seated on one OF tho
tribunes. watching the procession pass.
At once he caused his carriage to DO
stopped. and. without the slightest
regard for the pomp aud oiiielaldom
with which he was surrounded. he got
out OF the carriage and ran over to kisa
the old lady, being unwilling to wait
TO the end OF the ceremonies. Such o
spontaniety OF feeling as his, and such
simplicity OF manners. far from shock
ing, were sure TO gain for him the
hearts OF Frenchmen. But by putting
this LITTLE episode In relief the ballad
maker wished to Impress his hearers
with the idea that there was nothing
IA the political career OF Emile Loubet
which was more interesting TO note
than this family scene.

COL. R. L. MEADE
FULLY EX0NERATED.
FOUND NOT GUILTY OF CHARGES.
Restored to Duty at Onee-So Rec
omme endatiOns by the Court
Regarding Counter
Prosecutions.

The acquittal of Col Robert L Meade,
U. S. Marine Corps by the court-martial
before which he was ordered for trial at
the Brooklyn navy yard some time ago
was reported TO the Navy Department
yesterday by Lieutenant Niblack, recorder
of the court. The records were turned
over to Judge Advocate Lemly for review
after which they will go 10 Secretary
Long for his approval of the findings.
Pending the conclusion of these formali-
ties Colenel Meade has been restored to
duty at his station.
Colonel Hende's Tiadication.
Colonel Meade was charged with
drunkenness on duty and scandalous con-
duct. the latter charge involving allega
tions of false swearing on the witness
stand before the court OF enquiry which
preceded the court-martial He was ac-
quilted of both charges and every specif-
cation. Beyond the mere formal finding
Not guilty" no comments were submit
ted by the court.
The court made no recommendations
with reference TO the other officers in
yolYed in the case OF Colonel Meade. but
there is considerable gossip in naval cir
cles as TO whether the Navy Department
will take any action against Major
Charles II. Lauchheimer, assistant adju-
tant and inspector of the Marine Corps,
who was the main accuser of Colonel
Meade. and who was in turn accused by
that officer.
Origin of the Charges.
The charges against Colonel Meade
were brought by Major Lauchheimer and
Col. Frank L. Denny, quartermaster of
the Marine Corps. These officers alleged
that Colonel Meade had been drunk on
several occasions.
Colonel Meade replied with charges
against them of conspiracy. He also ac-
cused Colonel Denny OF collusion with 4
contractor and Major Lauchheimer with
drunkenness. On the stand Colonel Meade
explained that he did not claim that
Colonel Denny was engaged in any fraud
ulent pecuniary coliusion with the con-
tractor, but that he meant that the two
we're trying 10 inJure him. 4 great deal
OF testimony was produced. however, to
show that Major Lauchheimer was intOXi-
Gated.
other Prosecutions Unlikely.
The naval officials will give no inkling
of whether any further action will be
taken on Colonel Meade's charges against
Colonel Denny and Major Lauchhemer,
but there appears 10 be an understanding
that the first named officer will not be
called on to stand trial.
II is contended in some quarters Of the
naval and Marine Corps contingent that
no further proceedings growing out OF the
trial Of Colonel Meade can be taken by
the Navy Department This opinion is
based on the Interpretation OF the findings
and recommendations of the court of en-
quiry which investigated the charges orig
inally as ylndication of Colonel Denny
and Major Lauchheimer. This court in
yestigated Colonel Neade's charges
against his two juniors as we'll as their
charges against him. and the result Of
their inquisltion was that Colonel Meade
should be urt-martialed.

Murphy d. Co.'s Cotton. Letter.

New York, Nov. IA recovery in
prices ranging from to s points, was
the feature of the early market in cot
ton to-day. Several facts combined to
produce a more cheerful feeling, First
of all, Liverpool was in better condi-
ton, and gave evidence of having
touched near the bottom. Receipts
while fully not excessive, ruling prices
are so low, that even with big crop.
they are regarded as moderate. and
besides this, the so-called crop experts,
who figure on a crop of eleven millions
or more, may as likely as not be half
a million or more too high in their
views. Ice was reported. at Camden,
S. c., and the temperature was gem
orally low in Alabama, Mississippi and
Georgia. While frost was indicated
tonight for Arkansas, Louisiana and
Texas, no little support came from New
Orleans, and shorts betrayed nervous
ness. Cables were higher. Receipts at
ports estimated at $4,000, against $4,000
last year. The statistical situation con-
tinues strong enough to inspire the bull
faction. The visible supply is 2,763, 900,
against 2,S6S,00 last year, and receipts
for the season 2,246, 900, against 2,312,000
last year. Great Britain has taken so
far this season, 757 900, against $4,000
last year. The stock in all ports is

ding cotton is quoted here to-day at

at Liverpool, at AID, against 5 1-16d
last year. The India receipts for the
season so far, are LA 900, against 617,-
900 last year. Texas reports show no
change from previous claims of no top
crop in most sections, and little holding
back, while receipts for the season. so
far, indicate such loss from last year,
that it is difficult to see how that state
will raise a big crop.
