 By James Bowron.
BANQUET AT THE FLORENCE

The graduating exercises of the Rirm- night at the Jefferson Theatre. The an- nnal banquet given by the Alumni fol- lowed at the Florence Hotel.
 At the Jefferson fifteen young men were given diplomas and a. happy. bright lot of fellows they appeared to be. The grad uating class was composed of the follow ing dentists:
 Lavette Cox, Ashville;. Ethridge Win chester Murphree. North Birmingham; Alberto Rodolphus Reid. Warrior: Will liam Arthur Collins, Birmingham; John Greer Hopping, Aurora. Ind; Leland Caldwell Spay, Mas: Abner Gather Thompson, Eldorado.

Ala: Eugene Clifton BasiSin, Whithed: Carter Randolph Bibb, Warrior; Oliver Wendell Sansum. New Orleans; Alexander Bragg Horn. Montevallo.
 The annual address to the class was delivered by James Bowron. one of the
  zens and was speech teeming with only such excellent advice a successful man Is capable of giving. The effort was ap- pIauded vociferously by the large nnm- ber of persons assembled to see the diplo- mas received,
 Dr. T. M Allen, dean of the college, conferred the degrees and delivered an address to the class. The valedctory ad- dress was to have been delivered by J. c. Hopping of Aurora, Ind, but the young man was called home by telegram on the sad mission of attending the funeral or his father. One of the most attractive features of the programme was the violin and piano solos by MT. and Mrs. Oliver Chalifoux.- They were enthusiastically re- ceived by the audience.
 Following the commencement exercises a banquet was rendered the graduates by the alumni of the college. This ban quet was given at the Florence Hotel and Manager Jones was congratulated on the menu served. It was exceedingly tempt ing. and the menu card was pretty sou venir of the occasion.
 Toasts were responded to by a number f Of the dentists present. among whom were the following:
 Dr. Fulton, toastmaster; pr. Alex Crumley, 's6 pr. R. P. McTyeire. 's7; Dr. II. M. .McTyeire. '9S; pr. R. S. Hunt, '99. and Dr. Baxter Rittenberry.
 Among the guests were number ot very pretty. charming women, and their br1llisncy added considerably to the oc- cassion.

made this statement to the Associated Press:
 We loaned S,OOoOOO in the street after le o'clock today, some of 1t as low as 6 per cent, and felt that the crisis was over do not believe that a single large house will go down. There have been tre- mendous losses. Thousands of accounts representing millions of dollars are wiped out. The bankers are firm and the large operators are, think. capable of caring for themselves. You see they have been taking large profits, and are capable of standing up. At present prices. feel that stocks are good investment and look for heavy buying orders good day and the market will be steady again. The banks acted together today, but there was no consonanee or agreement about It. We placed about S16,oO0. 600 in the az gregate and the moral effect was good Wall street could not stand many days like this, but as It is the storm Is weathered and the situation will improve from the opening tomorrow"
 An industrial leader made this state ment to the Associated Press;
 Nf'l believe the worst of the storm Is over, There have been conferences of importance among the larger financlers. and 1t has been decided that every man of standing in the street shall be pro- tected had thought there would be failures, but there are influences strong enough to avert them at work. and am sure now they will succeed. I look for buying orders and a rally In the mar ket. There will also be peace among he interests now at war
 James J Hlll, president Of the Great Northern Railroad. said concerning the struggle in the stock market;
 When have spoken at all have tried hot had nothing at all to do with these mar ket transactions. | have been busy all day long buying locomotives for the road. l have not been in the street. and 1 have neither bought nor sold n share of North ern Pacific stock"

A Tale of Two Governors.
n the Nashville American.

1 From the Nashville American.
 Governor Candler of Georgia was
 quoted some days ago as saying in
 reference to a visit of certain Eastern gentlemen to the South in the interest of education that Georgia did not need the oficious intermeddling of lot of "d---d Yankees" in its educational af- fairs, or words to that effect Governor Candler denounces the report as false in every particular Governor Longino of Mississippi got into hot water some days since through report that he had declared himself to be weary of something or other concerning Jeff Davis and the Daughters of the Con- federacy, and which he characterized as rot" That report set the women of Mississippi and the men, too, hot on the Governors trail, and he hast ened to explain and deny. Governor Longino can stand an ordinary attack such, for instance, as was made upon him by certain newspapers when he attended McKinley's inauguration, upon which occasion it was charged he was dragging the captive Democ- racy at the chariot wheel of Repub- lican conqneror," which in itself was a crime heinous enough to arouse the indignation of those who live in Mis. sissippi and the past and who eat fire
 but when the women got after him he ran up the white flag. The latter was a wise act upon the part of the Governor. To cast a reflection on Jer Davis in Mississippi is like blowing in the muzzle of an unloaded gun We are glad to know that Governor Long ino has denied the report, which was not to his credit We are pleased to know, also, that Governor Candler has denied that he made the reported re- marks concerning those miliionaires and wise men from the East who man fest a desire to distribute light among the dark places in the South, and whose conduct in some respects is more or less amusing. Hereafter, we trust. the Governors of Mississippi and Georgia will talk only to official and confidential typewriters and then carefully revise the copy before pub. lication. They should emulate the Governor of Tennessee, who says nothing when he has nothing to say, and who does not give forth half-baked opinions. A Governor should be very careful of his utterances. The white light that beats upon throne in these imperial times makes pimple resem ble cancer, and by some peculiar pro cess unknown to the ordinary laws of light has the power of magnifying a mild, tentative, private opinion con. corning the state of the weather into a public and positive declaration that it Is time to take drink The next time Governors Candler and Longino engage in private conversation of public character it should be with deaf and dumb man and in a dark room Let them remember the remark of the parrot that had figh, with the dog. et.

FLORENCE
More Money Will Be Raised for Battle
 ship Silver Service.

l
 Florence, May 9.--(Special) )-M. w. Camper, chairman of the Battleship Alabama Silver Service Commission of the Eighth District, has made his ap- pointments in the counties of the dis trlct and a number of the committee have accepted. The commission needs $5000 yet, and active work should be begun at once to raise the money. It would be a reflection on the State of Alabama not to be able to raise this fund, and MT. Camper is especially anxious that the Eighth District do its whole duty in this matter. EX-Gov. Robert l.. Taylor spoke last night to large and enthusiastic audi ence at the Auditorium on "Senti- ment." This was his fifth appearance in the city but he has never been more heartily received. The lecture was frequently interrupted with ap- l plauSe, and the speaker held his audi ence for two hours in rapt attention. Reports from over the county show that corn and cotton are suffering for the lack of moisture and the plants are not coming lp as they should. Much of the cotton and corn replanted has not sprouted, and the crop will be short in consequence, as it is too late to plant over again. Rain is badly needed, there being no precipitation since the heavy rainfall the middle of last month, when the cold spell killed the seed in the ground.
 Miss Mary Wesson, daughter of John E. Wesson of this city, and MT. James l. Mcclure, representing the Converse Bridge Company of Chatta- nooga, Tenn, were married tonight at the home of the brides parents. MT. Mcclure is the son of the late Judge w. B. Mcclure, Probate Judge of Lau- derdale County.
 The marriage of Miss Emma Ethel Carroll and Mr. R. w Simpson is an- nounced for Tuesday, May IA, at the home of the brides parents, MT. and Mrs. G. L. Carroll. MT. Simpson is well-known young man, and is a vet eran of the Spanish-American war, be- ing d member of the First Alabama Regiment.

NOT DEEPLY COMMITTED.
Our English Cousins Think 1t Savors
 of Romance.

London May e.--The Financial Times. commenting on the situation, thinks that the comparative absence of feverish. ex- citement in London untiliafter the closing hours affords reassuring evidence that the London Stock Exchange is not deep ly committed with Americans, although there is no doubt that acme individuals have heen badly hurt.
 Tn such wud markets" says the Flnan- cial Times, -'tha jobbers wisely re- Training from committing themselves ex- cept on A very wide margin, which in many cases has been absolutely refused
 '.One point comes clearly out of the hurIy burly.-that Is that the consolida- ton rumors and belief in community of interests in railroads would receive se- we're shock.
 "Yesterday's experiences would more nttingly be embraced between the covers of a Iiilesy Verne romance than in the records of ordinary life, and If the all legged uew day in American railroad af- fairs is dawnlng, 1t is dawning through stormy skies. When professional opera tors, wth ample means at ther disposal, are being ruined, It behooves the general speculator to stand aloof."
 The Standard. in it's financial articles, says the position may be summed Up as | one of extreme uncertainty rather than of actual alarm.
 Not only is the situation in New York imperfecty understood here," continued the Standard, 'but there must also be uncertainty as to the extent of the recent rise in prices which has attracted buyers on this side''
 The Chronicle, in its financial item, re- marks that the gamble was not extended to bonds and that the latter show few signs of business.

Russell Sage on Situation.

-- New York, May 9.-Russel Sage, when seen at his home tonight and asked his opinion of the stock market, said: T have been associated intimately with transactions in Wall street for half a century. and I can truthfully say that the last two days have been the most remarkable have ever seen. Fictitious and inflated values have prevailed, and the smash that was inevitable has come. I knew it would come and predicted it. True, thousands will go to the wall but that Is only an incident in the fight.
 This whole thing got it's origin in an attempt to divert traffic from it's natural and central source toward the west, in Omaha, to the northern route-an un- natural route. Yesterday CWednesday) was absolutely unprecedented in the his- tory of the financial world.
 However ] will not anticipate serious results. By tomorrow CFriday) things will have begun to settle and the general common sense of the people will put things to rights"
