JOE cANNoWs MISTAKE.
Said II "Wasn't His Lead" When Called
on IN PRAYER Meetinn

Said II wasn't His Lead" When Called
on in Prayer Meeting.
Washington October r. From OYER the
hills far away, comes story concerning
Unclc Joe Cannon ana what happened
when he went to church one day recently.
The tale is not well authenticated, but
the thing that Is alleged ia be fact is
so probable that II viii hear telling. II Is
solemnly alleged that on the day in qucs-
tion, the man who used to delight IN hav-
ing himself called the "haysecd congress
man went 10 prayer meeting. The nig6t
before IL appears, he had been out with a
number Of congenial spirits who whiled
away The time by playing cards at a penny
heart They tarricd long AT the game.
Therefore II was quite natural that on the
next evening, Mr. Cannon yielded TO the
spmnolaut Influences of tho meeting house.
They alicge that the Hon Joseph fell sound
asleep and further that he entered a ston.
torlan suorr This shocked the good
brother who was leading the meeting so
that he determined 10 awaken the sleeper.
"Wil Brother cannon lead us IN prayerf'
he asked in n loud voice. The sleeping
statesman half awoke. rubbed his eyes.
and thus he spoke:
Faint my lead; dealt last"
IL may be that that tale Is apocryphat.
bnt Cannon Is good natured man and
whenever the story tellers about town hear
what they thiuk rs new tale. II j.
gtraightway said that the Illinois man Is
the mortal to whom u should be credited.

Time---Steamship Released-cotton
Reoeipts--Other Matters.

Galveston, Texas, October i5-The ocean
freight situation az Galveston which mas
been In dcmoralEcd condition for the
past three months IS growing slightly Arm.
err As yet the condition has NOT strength.
encd TO sufficient extent to Justify the
Galveston ship agents in quoting an osub-
llshed rate. but 1t is probable that rates
VIII be quoted some time next month, If
not sooner.
For some time there were vessels here
whose agents were SO anxious To secure
cargocs that they would accept freight at
any rate they could get. which would lusti
fy them In handling freight at an. During
the past two weeks however. such vessels
have become less numerous aud during the
past week the Tonnage situation here was
relieved considerably. Eight steamships
have arrived here. however, SO FAR this
week and there are now thirty-hyc In
port, so there stl is NO scarcity of ton
mage.
Cotton has been moving sluch more rap
idly through this port during the past two
weeks than IL had during the earlier part
of the season and there has also been %
considerable quantity Of cotton seed pro
duets exported during the past Two weeks,
the demand for tonnage Increasing as
season advances. There are also fcw
vessels destined Tor Galveston than Their
has been and THIS tends to strengthen the
situation While the Improvement
been very slight It Is u movement ~
direction of more stahiv ldtes and Is an
Indication that ocean rates out Of thlS
port have already reached their lowest
mark aud from this time there Will be an
Increase.
II has now been three months since the
Galveston ship brokers ccuscd quoting
ocean freight rates and during this time
they have hecn making the best terms
with shippers they could As thrre was o.
regularity I'm the rates 80 can not be learned
exactly what they were, but II Is known
that they went lower than they were ever

The same conditions that have existed
at Galveston have existed nc other port
