Bop meCarty Gets Drunk and the Off
GERS Get Him.
Yesterday about noon Bob McCarty
was seen near the First National bank
in a very drunken condition and rails
ing considerable disturbance.
Special Officer Frank Kolb, Of the
fire department noticed him. and with
the assistance of others, conducted
him to the calaboose, where he was
locked up. Pretty soon friends Of Bob
interceded and stood for the fine Of
disturbance, and Bob was released.
The surprise came to Bob, however,
when he was turned loose by the city,
for Deputy United states Marshal b,
V. Henson to step up and arrest him
on an alias warrant that was issued
on Sept. 10, 1898, charging him with
stealing 500 pounds of seed cotton.
McCarty was indicted for this Of
fense and gave bond, which he forfeit
ed, and has been at large ever since
Bob let whisky lead him into troub
le, as it most always does, and he is
now hard and fast behind the bars oI
the United States jail.

oUTwITTED THE OFFICERS.
W. J. starks Steals Wagon and Team
Comes to Ardmore.

OCUcb 10 ATuUlOTes
Something like couple of weeks
ago there arrived In Ardmore one w
J. Starks. having I'm his possession a
wagon and team. His actions were
queer from the jump. and one Of Ard.
more's policemen kept his eye on him.
II was not long before Starks dis
posed OF one of the horses, and was
attempting to sell the other and the
wagon when he was stopped by the
officer from further action in that
direction.
The officer did not place him under
arrest, wishing perhaps, to get further
evidence against him, and shadowed
him up into the telephone Office where
he was telephoning to some parties in
Texas.
Starks saw the officer as he came
out of the booth, and know that he was
watching him, and come to the con
clusion that he had better skip. II
was nearly dark then, and under
cover Of darkness he took the other
horse and rode out of the city to parts
unknown.
The officer had found out that Starks
hailed from Bowie, Texas, and some
days afterward the authorities tele
graphed here that he had returned
there, had shot up the town and made
good his escape. And so far as the
Ardmore officer knows he is stin at
large.
A man from Sunset, Texas, has lait
claim to the wagon, and the same 1,
being held here for him.

EDUCATORS ADJOURN.

Very Successful Meeting mt Minne-
 apoIis-BostOn For Next Year.
 MINNEAPOLIS, July 12.-The great educational convention of 1902 has come to an end, and it has proved the most successful meeting of the kind ever held.
 Forty-five meetings of the depart ments and six general sessions con- tributed to the work. Some of the best known speakers in the United States have delivered addresses, and nothing has been left out that could have add ed interest to the convention. Most of the delegates will depart at once to their homes, but a thousand or more will stay in Minnesota and vicinity for some time to visit various places of interest.
 It seems to be generally understood that the meeting place for next year will be Boston, the election of Presi- dent Eliot of Harvard university be- ing taken by most of those in attend ance to mean that there will be no , further competition by other would be aspirants for the honor.

TRADE CONDITIONS.
Good Reports Generally In Spite of

Good Reports Generally In Spite of
 Bad Weather and Strikes.
 NEW YORK, July 12.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Good news predominates. although unfavorable weather proved draw back at many points, and new labor disputes arose. Oppressive heat check ed retail trade, and excessive rains in- terrupted harvesting, yet experience teaches that crop disasters from too much moisture have been rare, the other extreme having furnished the < great records of loss.
 There is less than the customary midsummer idleness in manufacturing industries, despite the scarcity of fuel.
 Commodity prices are fully maintain ed, Dun's index number on July ris- ing to $101910 against $1O1.16S a month previous and $91.509 year ago.
 Statistics of pig iron production on July l are somewhat surprising. Ac- cording to the Iron Age, the weekly output was at new high record of 352, ,590 tons, notwithstanding the shortage of fuel.
 New England shoe shops are more fully engaged than at any previous time this year, and shipments from Boston for the last week compare more favorably with last years move ment than at any recent date.
 Export orders for cotton goods are still disappointing, and the home de mand is quiet, yet mills are well oc- cupied.
 Corn has again been the prominent feature of the markets for domestic staples. Spectators at the west SC cured control of the 6,000000 bushels in the visible supply and compelled the short interests to cover contracts at disastrously high prices. At the tor point on Tuesday July corn command ed 90 cents bushel. or about b cents more than wheat.
 Failures for the week numbered 19a in the United States against POS last year and 19 in Canada against 27 a year ago.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July 12.-- Police Captain John Fitchette, known throughout the west as Coffee John" has been convicted of trafficking in po- sitions on the police force. The specific charge was that he accepted S200 from John Long for procuring the appoint ment of the latter as a policeman. While the offense is only a misdemea- nor and does not involve penitentiary sentence, the conviction is regarded as of great importance in the current mu- nicipal corruption exposures because of the implication of other officials

MITCHELL TALKS

Cannot Forecast Conventions Ac.
 tiOn-Leader Wrfght's Open Letter.
 WILKESBARRE, Pa, July 12.-For the first time since the mine workers decided to hold special national con yention President Mitchell yesterday consented to say something for publi. cation about the gathering. He said it was utterly impossible to forecast the action of the convention. From his remarks it is almost certain the convention will do one of only two things, either decide on a general sus pension or provide q defense fund for the anthracite strikers.
 J. Ridgeway Wright of this city, the leader of the citizens alliance which was recently organized in this vicinity, has sent an open letter to President Mitchell, in which he calls the latter's s Sttention to alleged intimidations, boy cotting and other annoyanceS practiced on all persons who are working in the mines. He pays a tribute to or ganized labor generally for the good it has done aud reminds MT. Mitchell that every man has right to work or remain idle, as he sees fit. In con- LluSilI5 ulS NAA. " A15hI says:
 We therefore appeal to you to de- clare:
 "First.-The highways are free to all who desire to work, notwithstanding a strike is in. progress.
 Second. nd.--Boycotts against any busi- ness or professional man on the ground of services rendered to nonunion worker are condemned by the union.
 'Third-That hanging in effigy, the digging of mock graves and every other form of violence, threat and libel are condemned by the union.
 Fourth Strikers who participate in any of the offenses thus itemized will be held responsible to the union for all disturbances, unlawful boycotts, etc, i'll which either they themselves or their wives and children partici- pate.'
 For the first time in five months the pumps at the Stanton mine of the .Le- high and Wilkesbarre Coal company were put in operation yesterday, and the work of pumping the water out of the mine begun. Ever since the strike began this colliery has been a target for the strikers and their sympathiz- CTS. The boy McCann was shot there, and several attempts were made to burn outbuildings within the inclo- sure.
