NEARLY NINE HUNDRED BALES.
Cotton Poured In the Warehouses
Here Yesterday.

With more than 700 bales to the
good, last Saturday was considered q
banner day among Americas ware
housemen, but the record made yester-
day collapsed that of week ago by
more than one hundred bales.
Yesterday was the seasons record
beaten up this time.
The deecy staple poured in steadily
from every direction, and q careful
count at nightfaIl showed 835 bales in
The warehouses.
This was exclusive of 2, ZOO bales re-
ceiYed at the compress from other
points. Only wagon cotton is count
ed, and the total warehouse receipts In
Americas to date is very near the eight
Thousand mark.
To be exact about it, the warehouses
have handled 1902 bales.
Yesterday s receipts were the best so
far, and as the market was pretty near
Iy right many farmers sold their cot
ton. The best grades brought y
cents, but there was little of the
'best" grade.
The merchants felt the impetus Civ
en- business by the sale of so much cot
ton, and trade in all lines was very
good. Collections were also better
than for some time past, and altogeth-
or the day was a good one.
Americas would like to see just a
dozen or two such ''trade Saturdays"
as was yesterday.

SCORES DROWNED.
Steamer City OF Pnducah strikss .
Snag ard Sinks.


Carbondale, Ills. May 1.-THE City
Of Paducah, a Mississippi river pack
ct, struck a snag and sank near Brunk-
hort's Landing, about four miles north
of Grand Tower. Between 25 and SO
people were drowned. only seven es.
Gaping with their lives. The body Of
DR.. J. w. Bell Of Bells Landing, Tenn,
was taken out Of his state room, The
remains Of an unknown young woman
were also recovered.
The steamboat drifted one-third OF
q mile below the landing before she
sank. The first mate was ON the cabin
deck and escaped by climbing through
the skylight. 1t was supposed that
most Of the missing deckhands, who
were on the lower deck. were washed
down the riySr. The boat lies doNS
about 100 feet from the Iliineis shore,
The majority of the victims were
negro ro4stabonts.
Rabbi Bloch had Just retired for the
night in berth next to that occupied
by his wife and daughter. when the
boat struck the snag. No warning
whatever OF impending danger was
given. "The boat" he said. took on
at Fountain Bluff 1.500 sacks Of corn.
Some Of us thought the boat was
overloaded. When the vessel struck
the snag she broke In two lengthwise,
one side careening and going to the
bottom at once. while the other float
ed. happened to be on the floating
part" The seven passengers saved
are Jews.

6ition in life, and he has not done it
by elbowing others out OF the way.
On the contrary, his record is full OF
good deeds. kindly acts. helps here
and helps there to struggling young
men. To be his friend once is to be
his friend always. He Is plain, frank
and honest. He never forgets a friend
ly act. and this trait alone has made
him innumerable friends among all
classes Of people. He possesses all
the elements of strong candidate be-
fore the people. His record will bring
to his support a large following from
the farming community and from men
who have come up from the ranks by
their own efforts.
Mr.. Zimmerman began life as a
farmer boy in Mahoning county. He
got his first book-learning in coun-
try school. He became ambitious, and
was such success as scholar that In
1874 he taught school in order to get
start for attending college. The de-
termination that has made him one OF
Ohio's leading lawyers and business
men was shown In his early youth.
Mr.. Zimmerman stands high as a Cit
len In his own town. His remarkable
popularity is best shown by the race
he made In this (the SEVENTY congress
SIGNAL district against Hon. Walter l..
Weayer for congress. Although the
district Is ordinarily 1000 Republican.
Mr.. Weaver won out with but a plu-
rality Of 2T6.
Mr.. Zimmerman was asked for an
expression OF his views upon what the
state platform should be. He replied:
Tho state platform should contain
not less than four planks: Anti-impe-
riaiism; antirtrust;f more economical
administration ofithe state affairs. and
home rule in the cities and villages of
the state. There should be more
economical administration OF the state
government. The taxpayers and cit
iEens are becoming disgusted with 1t.
A better example could not be OBJ
tained than right here In Springfield.
We have three fraternity homes here
maintained with excellent and com
Portable appointments for the wards
of Masons, Knights Of Pythias and
Odd Fellows. The comforts and serv-
Ice to the occupants OF these homes
are superior to those in any of the
state institutions. and yet the cost OF
maintaining them per capita is about
osc-half less than 1t costs the state
