Two Watch Theft Cases Before the
 Court To Be Disposed Of.

Two Watch TheTt Gases Before the
 Court To Be Disposed Of.
 The times were hard, with Peter Buckwicz of Farm street. Peter is fifteen years of age, but he would be taken for seven He has been six months from school and for tha past three weeks times have been very hard with him. He has been out of job, the hardest plight one can well sur mise. Peter said he worked at s.Sco- yilPs,'' with an air of familiarity as though he had worked there many years instead of months; also at "Hitchcox." Yesterday Peters moth- CT went shopping and she took him shopping. They went to the great sale at Conlon Bros, and while Mrs Buck wicz was admiring the great bargains Peter slipped away from her to the jewelry counter. Unfortunately for Peter, gold watch worth $4 was lying on top of the jewelry case and while the jewelry clerk was looking the oth- CT way the watch got into Peters pocket. Edward Miller, a clerk at Conlon Bros, bought the watch from Peter for seventy-five cents, sbut I gave him eighty cents" said the clerk. 'He came to me crying, said his father was dead and he had to. get money on the watch" went on the clerk, ESQ I bought it from him." Peter denied he told the clerk such story. He was committed to the school for boys until he is 21, so that it will be some time before Peter is again out of a job.

The watch was up the spout Miss Lena Rus sell testified that I<ennedy's sister is employed at Mrs McLaughlin's on Spring street: that she herself was wis iting there yesterday and laid her wraps and watch aside for the time.

TRACKED HIS WIFE
OVER 1,400 MILES

VALDOSTA. Ca, Sept. 27.-After trav-
cling over 1.400 miles in search of his
wife and little boy. J. W. Benson, of St
Augustine, Fla, came upon the woman
face to face I'm this city this morning
He had notified Chief Of Police Dampier
that he was looking for her and he pointed
her out to the officer as soon as he saw
her. She was on her way to work at a
dressmalxing establishment on Patterson
street, but when she saw him she changed
her course and returned TO her boarding
house on Rogers street.
The officer followed her to the boarding
house and learned there that she was liv-
ing with a man named George Mier, of ST.
Augustine, who had also deserted his wife
and family. A warrant had already
reached the officer for the arrest Of Mier'
and he was promptly landed in jail. The
woman admitted that she had ran away
with AIier and that he had deserted his
family but she said that she had never
been married to Benson and that she was
not his wife.
Benson claims that he was only In
search Of his child, a bright little boy,
who has been living with the couple here.
Benson followed the couple for more than
a week, tracing them up into North Car
DINA and then back here. The child will
probably be given 20 him and It is prob
able that a warrant will also be sworn
out against the woman.

Murphx & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

NEW YORK, Sept. H.-The market
opened higher on rather active trading
being helped by a good advance at Liver
pool, where it was understood fears of
a cold wave were entertained because Of
yesterdays forecast. The early wealth
er map, however, failed to reveal a lower
temperature than AZ at Marillo, Texas,
while light frost was reported at Dodge
City, Kansas. Shorts were covering in a
small way, and bulls were encouraged by
numerous mail reports of rain doing
damage while the reports of Bradstreet
from their special correspondents were
confirmatory of a short yield on the
whole. Just what may be the program of
the bull leaders is not exactly understood.
but there are signs of uneasiness in some
mill quarters, where it was expected a
lower market would enable free purchases
before this time.
New England interests were buying May
delivery today and although the receipts
promised to be large, the trade ignored
them. Heavy buying of March for Wall
street set in after the opening and this
steadied the market and put an end to the
realizing which was threatened.
Cool weather for Texas and the gulf
states generally was fOrecasted. The
days business was moderate. Port re-
ceipts today estimated at $4,000; last year.
$4,000.

WEDNESDAY IS
DAY FOR THE
ELECTION
STATE AND COUNTY OFFICERS
TO REELECTED ON OCTOBER
FIRST-P0PULISTS IN THE
FIELD.

Wednesday is the state election day and
all the statehouse officers are to be cleo
ted at that time Despite the fact that
the Populists have out state ticket, the
Democrats will pile up tremendous ma
jority. For a time the Populists preten-
ded that they would not put out any can
o.date but 1t has developed during the
past few days that they have sent tick
cts to many of the counties in the state
with the request that they be voted next
Wednesday against the Democratic ticket.
The race between Judge John S. Cand-
Ter and Judge John p. Ross for the SUI
preme court rs the only race that will at
tract any attention, as the other men
being Democratic nominees will have no
trouble
While both Judge Gambler and Judge
Ross arc Democrats they are not the NOM
inees and for that reason the one receiv-
in5 the highest vote will I'LL the unexpired
term of Judge n. 7. Lewis.
Both men are hard at work and are
bringing every influence to bear in the
coming election. 1t is understood that
Hon. Dupont Guerry has been writing
letters to all sections of the state in in
terest OF Judge Ross who was his cam
paign manager during his race for gov
er
Elections will be held in every county
in the state on Wednesday. In many OF
the counties 70 primaries have been held
for county officers and the local fights will
be very interesting. In some counties
where there have been primaries indie
pendent candidates, who were dissatis-
fed with the way the primary went have
announced OF - position for which they
ere de-eated in the primary, but these
independents from all that can be learned
will be badly defeated

New Orleans cotton Letter.

Private wire TO r. M. Scale & Co.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept. 27.-In the face
of a large weekly movement and corresponding
gain in the visible Liverpool was decidedly good
today. Deliveries improved to the extent of 1854
and spots were marked up 1-32 with sales Of
5000 bales. This is rather conclusive indication
that foreigners are not disposed to take any
developments too seriously and somewhat fear
the commences of crop damage reports In
view of the Saturday holiday accompanied by
usual liquidation prices did not display any
marked degree of energy, but the record Of
heavy rains in Texas yesterday, with heavy
frost north of the territories and predictions
for colder weather over night in the central and
western belt created apprehensions of frost suf-
fcient to maintain very steady undertone.
Closing quotations are to points higher than
yesterday. Whatever else may be in the pros
pect IL is quite evident that the market will
continue very sensitive to any reference to frost
until the period for damage by that cause has
been passed. This is the result of a convic-
ton amongst the majority of traders that the
extent of the yield will be determined more by
the date of frost than by any current influences,
especially since the crop i'll afford TO suffer
curtailment from such a serious element, If
previous reports of deterioration are correct
Meanwhile the spot department has again con-
tracted irmness and with the monthly bureau
ahead no anxious desire to sell is likely to be
observed.

LATE SAMOAN JUSTICE
TALKS OF PHILIPPINES

Judge W. L. Chambers, late chief jus
tice at Samoa and now a member of the
Spanish Court Of Claims. arrived in At
lanta last night. and is spending today
with his sister. Mrs. w. II. Alexander, at
Isl Crew street.
Judge Chambers is one of the enthus-
iastic believers in the Philippines, and
talks giOwingly of the foreign trade to
come in connection with the acquisition
of the archipelago.
Il regard the Philippine archipelago"
he said, las worth TO the United States
every cent of the expense of the war
worth. in fact. two or three times what
it has cost US. 1t was the only way we
could get into Asia.
Manila. for example. is actually nearer
In point of trade relation to the interior
Of Asia than is Hong Kong. although
Hong Kong is now the fourth port of the
world. The United States has been in the
position of producing in seven months all
our own people could use in twelve
months. We had to have an outlet for
our productions.
Take the mere question OF cooking
stoves. There are eight hundred million
people who are still ignorant of the Amer
lean cooking stove. found the same con-
ditions IN Samoa when 1 first went there
suppose in the early nineties there were
half a dozen stoves in Samoa. Now there
are a thousand. When Asia becomes ac-
quainted with the American cooking stove
the people will want them, not by the hum
dred or by the thousand. but by the mil
lion. and the cooking stove is but one
small item.
IT am not speaking now of the Philip
pines themselves, although our trade there
will be enormous. but we need those is
lands on account Of the gateway they give
US into the far east, a gateway of special
value when Il is remembered how Eng
land Russia, Germany, France, the
Netherlands and Japan have been arrang-
ing and planning TO distribute this trade
among themselves"
Speaking or the Spanish Court Of
Claims, of which he is a member, Judge
Chambers said the sittings of the court
had been largely taken up with the con-
sideratiOn of questions of legality. Most
Of the claims come from Cuba, some of
them dating back as far as ten years
before the outbreak Of the Spanish war
These are claims against Spain, all of
which were assumed by the United States.

WITH FEARFUL CRASH
STEEL WORK COLLAPSED

WASHINGTON, Sept. H.-The front
portion of the nine-story Office building.
under construction for Henry s. Willard,
on Fourteenth street. opposite the new
Willard hotel, collapsed shortly after
O'Clock this morning and a large crowd
of people passing on their way to bust
ness hao a miraculous escape from death
or injury.
The accident was caused by overweight
ing the two iron columns supports for the
front wall, the pillars being insufficient 10
sustain the weight of the 500 and 1000
pound stones which were being piled as
a sill coping on the sixth floor
These immense stones and part Of the
iron frame work fell to the ground, but
fortunately the noise of the crash gave
sufficient warning to the forty workmen
employed and to the passersby.
Only one man, a laborer, named Wash
ington Gordon, was injured, but he was
able to return to work.
