WHlRLED TO DEATH
IN FAST FLYING BELT

CHARLOTTE, n. c.. Oct. 17.-Frank
Hornbuckle, card room overseer at the
Atherton Cotton mills. this city, was
caught in a two-inch belt at the mill Mon
day and hurled to instant death.
The accident was most unusual one.
One of the driving belts slipped off the
pulley OF the main shafting. In order to
replace the belt Hornbuclkle mounted a
step-ladder and stood near the shafting.
While tugging at the belt the unfortunate
man was caught by another belt and
thrown over the shafting three times at
the rate of 20 revolutions minute, and
then dropped on the floor 30 feet below.
Those who saw the accident declare that
Hornbuckle did not move a muscle after
he struck the floor. His neck was broken
and his shoulders bruised. AS the body
was whirled over the shafting the unfortu-
nate mans feet tore splinters from. the
ceiling. e5aa1sss.rs5

Murphy & Co.'s Grain Letter.

CHICAGO. Oct. 1S.-There has been
strong wheat market, with May gaining
a little on December, it's spread being &c.
The superlative feature has been contin-
ued buying of May by Patten and the
Bartlett party. The prediction of unsettled
weather had some effect. Duluth reported
100000 bushels sold for shipment. The Wis
ible increase will be a small one. Trade
continues to show a broadening tendency.
1t is reported that a cargo of red winter
has been sold to go to Toledo. California
news is very bullish. The market was up
almost SAC over Friday. Liquidation at the
opening caused weakness in December
corn. but the decline was of short dura-
ton. There was an urgent demand from
shorts and Cudahy brokers that sent the
prices up quick, and the market continued
firm throughout the session. Trade was
heavy and buying was largely by the
same interests that have been taking corn
for several days. Prospects of bad wealth
er had some strength, but as a rule no
attention was paid to conditions that usu-
ally influenced the market. May was firm.

New Orleans Cotton Letter.

NEW ORLEANS Oct. 1S.-Liverpools open
ing today was quite disappointing. Deliveries
declined two points and spots were unchanged
with sales of 5000. bales but the tone was
called easier in both departments. Cables re-
ferred to the favorable weekly crop reports or
the New York Chronicle, fine weather prevail
ing in the south and the Indifferent attitude
OF spinners, all of which were held partly re-
gponsible for the adverse tendency. Trading
was Of the usual holiday character. Pre-
dictions for showers over night, followed by
colder weather in the western belt induced COW
ering by timid shorts and a steady tone was
maintained under this influence, though the
changes in prices were rather Insignificant
closing quotations are to points above yes
terday.
Reports to hand today from New York con-
veyed the information that the syndicate OF
bulls had been reinforced by the acquisition OF
an enormous trader who had heretofore given
his attention principally to stocks and grain.
In other words, II was said that John w. Gates
had become interested in cotton, but IL such
is the case he did not interest himself ex-
tensivelv judging from the narrow fluctuations.
But cotton is a peculiar commodity and has
invariably refused submission to the dictates
OF anv Individual or clique. so II is not the
part OF prudence to be guided by the actions
OF such Spectators
The condition of trade has always more 10
do with settling the price of cotton than the
size of tho crop, though the power of specWIa-
ton may temporarily Interfere like the present
case. 1t will be good policy to study the con-
ditions abroad as well as at home.

POLE HUNTER UNDER
KNIFE OF SURGEON

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 15.-The follow
Ing statement IN reference to Lieutenant
Peary's operation and general condition
was given out today:
The operation itself was simple and
successful. A speedy recovery is 'antic-
ipated, and it is thought that il will not
be long before he will be able TO resume
his official duties IN the navy.
The operation does not in any way
affect his physical condition. save in that
it will facilitate his walking. and will
contribute to even better health. He is
in first class condition physically. in
spite of his prolonged and necessarily try
ing experience for the last few years in
the Arctic regions"

MII-LI0NAIRES OF AMERICA

LONDON, Oct. 1s-English members are
greatly surprised at an article in The
Daily Express on the subject of the new
Atlantic club. which is Familiarity cillled
the Anglo-American Millionaires' club.
This organization, which proposes 10
secure quarters in Piccadilly, has. accord
ing to a circular sent out inviting men TO
join, already enrolled upon its member
chip list some three hundred members OF
prominent London clubs, such as the Carl

A number of wealthy Americans have
also Joined. On the committee list are the
names of the Earl of Albemarl the Earl
of Kintore, the Earl of Lonsdale, the Earl
of Craven, Lord Sufield. Lord Charles,
Beresford. Mr.. J. Pierpont Morgan, Mr..
John Jacob Astor, Senator Chauncey M.
Depew and many others equally proni-
nent.
The Express says one of the rules Of the
new club recently passed provides that
members shall not he allowed to lose more
than $500 a week at cards on the club
crimson. Both winners and losers must
place cards accounts in the cashiers box
before leaving the room. No member may
make ready money payments.
For the card transactions Monday IS set
ting day, and no member may play efter
his account has reached 5000 until It is
settled.
For instance" says The Express. "a
member losing 5000 on Tuesday could not
play in the club for the remainder Of the
week"
These alleged rules regulating gambling
in the club have caused much comment.
In most Of the principal London clubs
gambling for large stakes is frowned up
on, while in those where IL is uno9hclally
sanctioned the utmost privacy is main.

done by the Atlantic club. is an unhsaSd

of ordinary gambling rooms where the
proprietor calculates the amount which
he considers his patrons are good for.
What is still more remarkable is that
such a provision in any clubs rules would
practically be an announcements to the
police that gambling was openly INDUCED
in and an invitation to them under the
law to raid the club house.

CONTINUOUS TERM FOR
HALL COUNTY SCHOOLS

GAINESVILLE. Ga. Oct 1S-The Hall
county board OF education at it's last
meeting. decided that the county schools
would hereafter operate a continuous
term school instead OF a summer term
and a winter term with a long vacation
between.
Another thing Of interest the board did
was a direct ruling that all teachers must
contract for schools with the trustees be-
fore applying TO the patrons. This con-
tract is accepted by the board as EVIL
dence that the teacher is the choice OF the
patrons. This does away with divisions
among the patrons. and friction because
OF several teachers applying for the same
school. and each securing a number Of
the patrons of his articles"

There was a buiilsh sentiment in wheat dur
ing the greater part Of the day, Influenced by

Southern Exchange Cotton Letter.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-The lull' in the
cotton market for the past few days has
been witnessed by more or less pessl-
mistic class of spectators. Declines and
advances such as indicate a scalping
trade have been the only features but
nothing came out OF either. The week
closes with no marked changes. The
winter months have displayed a tendency
toward firmness the last two days Of the
week which, perhaps can be regarded
only as coming in the natural course OF
events. The bears have had, practically
nothing in the way of crop gossip today
to warrant short sales and they have held
off to await further developments in the
way of statistics.
The market at the moment looks like a
purchase for a short turn, In view of the
fact that receipts are decreasing predic-
lions for heavy showers during the next
"a hours in the greater part of the belt.
