EASTERN CAPITAL
in COTTON PRESSES.
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FINAN-
CIAL DEALS EVER IN THE SOUTH.
Transaction May Have Some Connection
With the Struggle Between the Round
Bale and Square Bale Interests.

The New Orleans States prints the
following: A deal has been practically
completed here for the purchase
of the twenty cotton presses of New
Orleans by wealthy eastern capitalists.
One million dollars has been deposited
in New York in connection with the
deal, and millions more are involved
in what is considered one of the most
important financial transactions that
ever occurred in the south.
According to the terms 40 per cent
is to be paid in cash based on the esti-
mated value Of the property, and sixty
per cent in preferred stock upon which
dividends of per cent are to be guar
antced. The only hitch in the deal IS
in the matter of the presses owned by
the Heine interests of Paris.
The Heines are willing to surrender
their holdings, but have notified the
syndicate that they desire to sell out
right for cash. 1t is understood that
the manager of the deal in this city
has secured options upon every press
upon the terms mentioned. The negO-
tiations have been carried on very qui-
city, and the names of the capitalists
who are financing the enterprise in
the east are withheld.
What the intentions of the syndicate
are with respect to the property have
not been learned, but it is suggested
that the deal may have some connec-
tion with the struggle between the
square bale and the round bale inter-
ests in the south.

UNIVERSAL FRUIT CONGRESS
Plans for Great Gathering of Or
Chard Men in St. Louis.

TWO of the leading fruit experts Of
the United States-H. l.. Messick Of
Quincy and A. j. DUNCAN of Spring
field, Ill.-were at the Southern hotel,
in st. Louis, the other day in consulta-
ton with orchard men of st. Louis and
vicinity. 1t is proposed to held an ap-
pie congress in st. Louis next Deem
Der, at which apple growers and deal
ers from all parts of the world will
meet to discuss questions of mutual In
terest, says the st. Louis GlObe-De1nO-
crat. AS st. Louis is the center of the
greatest apple producing section on
the globe it is deemed proper that the
apple growers should start the move
ment for an universal fruit congress.
Among those interested in the pro-
posed congress are H. G. Cupp of Fall
Greek, ILL.,, president of the MISSISSIPPI
pi Valley Apple Growers association;
G. H. Williamson of Quincy, E. G. Will
son of Hannibal and j. M. Crow of
Louisiana, Mo.
Mr.. Messick says the greatest apple
country in the world is without doubt
along the Mississippi and Missouri
river bluffs and in northern Arkansas,
southwest Missouri, eastern Kansas
and other portions Of the same states,
where there is a rocky foundation and
plenty of iron in the soil.

you will, think, be easily able to de-

not be able to decide so well, and in
that case repeat the experiment an

MEMENTO FOR MANILA:
Pen Which Signed Philippine
Bill Goes to Public Library.

In the Manila public library there
will soon be deposited valued SOU
venir, says a special dispatch from
Washington to the Philadelphia Press.
1t is only an ordinary American steel
pen, but it was used by President
Roosevelt to sign his name to the bill
giving a civil government to the Phil
ippines. This memento of an act
fraught with so much significance to
the people of the archipelago was
begged from the president by Senior
Buencamino, the Filipino leader, the
other morning.
Senior Buencamino had learned that
the president had given the pen to Sen
ator Lodge, but hoped it was not too
late to have the gift recalled and
placed where it could be seen and
treasured by the Filipinos. He said it
would cause great disappointment If
he did not take the pen home with
him, as some of the prominent natives
of Manila had announced their inten-
ton of asking for the pen to deposit
in the public library of Manila and had
commissioned him to present their re-
quest to the president
Senator Lodge happened to be one Of
the presidents callers at the time and,
approaching the force of Senior Buen'
camino's argument, gave him the pen.

Artificial EyeIidS.

The latest surgical triumph, accord
ing to the London Science Siftings, is
the grating of a new set of upper and
lower eyelids to the eyes Of man who
lost his original set in fire. The acct
dent had left both eyeballs entirely I'M
protected, and there was danger of the
victim losing his sight entirely. 1t was
resolved to replace them by grating
four new eyelids, if possible, by taking

was necessary to proceed slowly, but
he experiment was successful from the
start. The four new eyelids perform
their normal functions naturally.

Fashionable Young Women Cae-
ate a Sensation at Newport.

A jolly party of young people of
fashion who had been playing ping
pong and lawn and court tennis start
ed at noon the other day for drive

her arms, took the correct posture for
that functionary and continued it dur
