There is the usual obscurity regarding
the changes in the loan item OF tne
banks There has been nothing in the
stock market to indicate extensive llqul-
dation of loans The change in that item
is likely to depend on syndicate opera
tions and on movements in the foreign
exchange market Tension in the time

of grain show rising tendency, promls-
ing some relief from that source for the

Second Crop Of Cotton.
(Wadeshoro MESSENGER. !

The papers are having a good deal
to say about the enormous SECOND crop
of cotton that is being made, but evil
IDENTIFY a good deal of what is being said
along this line is written by editors who
do not know what they are talking about.
The M. & I. happens to have small
sized cotton patch of its own. and there
are spots in it where the cotton plants
are loaded down with the much exploited
second growth bolls, but so far none
of them have opened and the indications
are that few, If any, of them will open
in the future. Second crop cotton is a
delusiori and a snare in this section, and
the farmer who fools himself into be-
lieving that it will amount to anything
is pretty sure to be disappointed.

New York, Dec. Sowing to the Sc
we're weather telegraph wires were badly
interrupted today and as consequence
outside business was very light, which
caused our market to be very narrow,
fluctuations ranging between two and
three points only. The in sight figures
were considerably less than last year,
and the severe weather continues
throughout the South. Receipts are very
light and the spot situation remains firm.
We believe the market will do better with
the resumption of telegraphic facilities.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Dec 5.@-The cotton market
opened steady / point higher to l lower,
ruled generally quiet, orders from the
country at large being more or less re-
stricted by weather Interruptions to the
telegraphic service. Trading was almost
entirely of local character throughout
the session. In the absence OF public
support the more professional element
depressed the market, but was cautious
in view of the disappointing movement
and the possibility of some damage to
late cotton from the continued unfavor-
able weather prevailing over much of the
cotton belt, with some reporting ruina-
ton to any further top development
while the rains and food following frosts
have done much towards degrading the
quality of late cotton. The demand came
principally from parties who had sold
previously although there was some buy
ing for Wall Street accounts earlier in the
session 1t was a local market most OF
the time with long intervals between
transactions towards the close OF bust
ness The total sales did not amount
to more than 5000 bales, representing
the smallest since, the season commenced
The market finally was quiet at net
loss of 1 to points, the entire change
following the opening, having been within
a range of five points.

PRES. PALMA is HOPEFUL.

Investments of American Syndicates
Day When Sugar BOunties Will BE
Suppressed.
Havana, July 20.-The Union Espan-
ola quotes President Palma as saying
in an interview that he has great
hopes that the country will emerge
VIGOROUSLY from the present crisis.
President Palma said:
IF American syndicates have
bought all our cigar factories and
considerable land, besides a number of
smaller estates, it is because of faith
in the economic future of Cuba. More
over, Senior Terry, who is a planter,
admits that a price of three reals
per twenty-five pounds of sugar
offers profit, which, though not very
great, makes. 1t worth while for those
to cultivate sugar who can avail them
selves of the best methods. Further
more we are approaching a day when
sugar bounties will be suppressed and
when Cuban sugar will be able to
compete with the European product
and there are besides favorable symp-
toms of reciprocity with the United
States. With these reasons as a basis
we may hope that the economic future
of Cuba will soon improve.
When once the economic problem is
solved, the political situation will not
present difficulties. The inexperience
regarding official organizations is COM
pensated for by the good sense of the
people. Annexation is not the way to
save Cuba, as it will not come when
the present population of Cuba would
benefit by it, but when the Americans
choose-that is, when the influence ex-
ereised by the Latin element in Cuba
shall have ceased"

WILL NOT RENEW THE STRIKE.
Chicago Freight Handlers Find
They Are Wen OF.

Chicago, July 20.-There will not be
a renewal of the freight handlers
strike in Chicago. This decision was
reached at a special meeting of the
Freight Handlers Union tonight, call
ed by President Curran to consider a
report that four of the roads are dis
eliminating against the old employees
who went on a strike two weeks ago.
After careful investigation commit
tees appointed to investigate the sup
posed grievances reported that all the
railroads with the exception of the
Panhandle are living up to
their agreements and that in
some instances the men had
been accorded better terms than
had been demanded while they were on
strike. While the Panhandle people
have been unable to place all the
strikers, it was reported that the old
men would be back at work in the
course of few days or as soon as the
contracts of the non-union men who
had been engaged during the strike
should expire. This state of affairs
met with the approval of the union
and it was decided that there was no
cause for any future controversy with
the railroads.

LAMAR MAKES A PROTEST.
Files Affidavit of Fraud In Leon
County Precinct.

SOuuty IFecInct.
Tallahassee. Fla, July 2o.--The Leon
County Executive Committee met here
on Saturday to canvass the returns
from the primary election held here on
Tuesday to nominate state and county
officers. AS the count progressed. when
the vote for congressman in precinct
IA was reached, Hon. w. B. Lamar
presented a protest against the vote
recorded for congressman in that pre-
cinct being counted and presented af-
fidavit from eight voters of that pre-
cinct stating that they had voted for
Lamar. The returns from said precinct
gave Lamar only five votes.
Senator Myers objected to any pro-
test being made except in writing and
Gen. Lamar turned to him and said:
THAT is just the way have made it,"
Gen. Lamar stated that this matter
had only been brought to his attention
late on the previous day, making the
time very limited for him to secure
affidavit. He stated to the committee
that there were others in that pre-
cinct who would make affidavit If they
had voted for him, and requested that
the committee allow him until Monday
at noon to secure them. w
Maj. Myers here addressed the COM
mittee and said that If he could not
receive an Office fairly he did not want
1t, and he was perfectly willing for
this investigation to be made In order
that 1T might get properly before the
congressional committee. He asked
the committee to give him time after
Gen. Lamar has filed his objections to
make reply. The request was
granted.

"Oh, yes" he said, on one occasion,
when complimented on his linguistic
improvement, II have made great for
ward steps. Last year / would have
said, i go by q party but Now I
must say, i go at party.
On another occasion the baron was
the recipient of a favor from an Eng
lish lady, for which he expressed the
most profuse thanks.
"Oh, please don't mention 1t, baron!v
said the lady, overwhelmed by his
gratitude.
mo, madam, won't" he replied, In
a confidential whisper.
The most noteworthy manifestation,
however, Of the baron's tendency to in
terpret English in it's most literal sense
was on the occasion of a formal call
which he paid an American girl in
Munich.
Goodnight, baron" said the young
lady as he was leaving, do come soon
again."
II shall indeed" said the Hunga-
rian; and, having passed two hours
turned to keep his promise.
As the possessor of a garden of con-
siderable extent in Vienna. the baron
found himself molested by trespassers.
and in order to check the evil he pre-
pared a polyglot notice to the effect
that trespassing was forbidden. The
English portion of the notice read as
follows:
"rhls ground is private. You VIII
please keep out Immediately"

A village washed ont.

Gowanda, N. Y. July 2O.-A disas-
trous flood did great damage to this
village and surrounding country to-
day The creeks went over their banks
and the streets were soon like rivers.
A dam in Thatcher's brook gave way
and the rush of water carried away
sidewalks, fruit trees and small out
houses. Bridges were badly damaged
and several houses were moved from
their foundations. The Erie tracks
were washed out and no trains have
passed since early this morning.
