A Case of Too Much Fish.

1t needs only one or two dull days on
the stock exchange to set the members
thinking over some new jokes to play
on their fellow brokers. Yesterday, rs
one of the most prominent and dignified
men on the exchange was vainly en-
deavoring to sell 500 shares of Anal
gamated Copper before the price faded
away entirely a fellow-broker came UP
to him quickly and told him that Mr.
Fish wished to speak with him, direct
ing him to call up 1914 Broad on the
telephone. A number of appreciative
listeners gathered around the instru-
ments. According to central the fol-
lowing conversation took place;
Give me 1914 Broad. Hello, Is this
1914 Broad?"
Yes"
Fish there?"
"F'ish?''
Yes, Fish"

outlines the plan of campaign decided upon by the present plutocratic element upon which the reformers stand. Tariff reform is to be made the chief issue. and the men who voted for Mir. Mckinley. the high priest of protection are to carry on sham battle with their companions of 1896. while the financiers make the dollar redeemable in gold and fasten upon the country an asset currency and a branch bank system. Trusts are to be denounced in sonorous terms, while the campaign managers mortgage the party to the trust magnates in return for cam paign funds. Some times imperialism will be denounced. as in Mir. Hopkins s Illinois conventipn; some times ignored as in Mr. CIeveland's speech but whether denounced or ignored. the secret and silent power that can compel submis- sion to the demands of the financiers and to the demands of the trust magnates can compel submission to the demands of the expioiterers and the representatives of militarism. The fight is on between a Democracy that means Democracy and a Clevelandism which means plutocracy, Every speech made by MT. Cleveland shows more clearly the odiousness of the policies for which, he stands. We have more to fear from those who. like Mr. Hill, indorse MT. Cieveland's views. but conceal their real purpose in ambiguous language" &

VIEWS OF OPERATORS
SAYS STATEMENT OF MITCHELL
 IS UNRELIABLE.
They Declare That the President of the Mine Workers Touches Only One Demand Made by
 the Men.

Wilkesberre. Pa., June 23.-Independent operators and superintendents were inter- viewed today on President Miteheil's ad- dress to the public None of the officials seen would perntt his name to be used. In the opinion ot most of the officials here the address Is "cleverly written" and will appeal to those persons who are not familiar with the conditions in the mining regions. On superintendent whose views were similar to the others said:
 President Mitchell touched on only one of four demands made by his union. He did not say anything on the uniform wage scale, the weighing of coal at all mines or the recognition of the union. These are vital points on which the companies are making a strong stand. Regard ing his claim that the productive capacity of me mine workers is increasing rather than decreasing we do not know where he gets his figures. The statistics for last year have not yet been completed
 The superintendent went on to say: "The assertion that the miner does not get paid for all the coal he mines is not true. The miner Is paid for 2,240 pound ton and he has to send to the surface on an average os 2,70O to 5000 pounds of coal slate and other impurities to get the ton of pure coal. Only about 10 per cent of the coal production is paid for by weight. the other 20 per cent being paid by measure. Attention should be called to the fact that MT. Mitchell, in speaking of last years prosperity in coal mining quoted only the Delaware and Lackawan- na and Western annual report. The re- ports of other companies tell an entirely different story"
 A secret meeting of engineers, firemen and pump runners was held at Nanticoke today and the engineers, according to report, decided to go back to work at the Susquehanna Coal Company's collieries tomorrow. It is stated 10 per cent of the firemen and per cent of the pump run ners will go back.

THE RICE INDUSTRY.
Report Issued by the Census Bureau
 Yesterday.

Washington, June 2s.-The Census Bu- reau today issued a report on the rice ii dustry, including cleaning and polish ing, showing capital of sg,601, 352 in- vested in the eighty establishments rev porting for the industry in the United States. This sum represents the value of land. buildings machinery. tools and im- plements and the live capital utilized
 The value of the products is returned at $s.72SI2 to produce which involved an outlay of $1s2.oSs for salaries of officials, clerks. etc, $2S5.5s5 for wages; $2S0, ,2o3 for miscellaneous expenses including rent. taxes, etc. and S.575522 for materials Used, mill supplies. freight and fuel.
 Since 1880 the number of establishments increased 264 per cent. capital 363 per cent and value of products 17S per cent. The increase in the industry in Louisiana and Texas is very marked their production having advanced from S56 pounds in 1890 to l79,9l9,293 pounds in 1900. an in- crease of 1875 per cent The statistics show that this industry Is being trans- ferred from the South Atlantic States to Louisiana and Texas. The eighty estab- lishments cleaned 39s,602.0is pounds of rough rice valued at $7lSi,2oS. From this were obtained 2fs03i, 200 pounds of clean rice, and 155,570,sls pounds of by-products Included in the quantity of rice milIed are 59,4l4459 pounds of foreign rice, re- ceived principally from China and Japan and handled b ymills on the Pacific coast, in New York City and In New Orleans.
 The report says: ''The large production of 1899 reduced the net imports for the fiscal year ending June 30 1900. to the very low figure of 75,sso. 764 pounds which was only A per cent of the consumption. Besides furnishing 76 per cent of it's total consumption in 1899 t..s country export ed 12,9470o9 pounds of clean rice. or per cent of the total production. The solu- ton of the irrigation problem in Louis- jana and. Texas will enable the United States to show a rapid increase in the annual rice production during the next decade, undisturbed by large variations shown in the crops of the past ten years"

WILL NOT RELEASE THEM.
England Declines to Free Citizens of
 America.

Washington, June 23.-The President to- day sent to the House a response to a resolution asking for the names of all American citizens detained by the Brit ish authorities as prisoners of war in con- nection with the recent war in South Af- rica. Secretary Hay in an enclosed letter gives q list of persons claiming to be cit izens of the United States held by the British government as prisoners of war and says:
 ''The prisoners in general have asked to be released as an act of clemency. The result of the investigation of illegal de- tention by consular officers has not 1ustt- fled the department in asking the release of the prisoners on the ground of wrong fuI detention. The ambassador of the United States at London under instruc- tions from the Department has made sev- eral efforts to secure the release of these prisoners on parole, on the understanding that they would return to the United States, but without success, except in the case of Mendal Miller. The rule of the British government has been that the application for release would be consid- cred only in cases where the prisoners were seriously or dangerously wounded.

THE SENATE.

Washington, June 2S-A motion was entered formally in the Senate today by MT. Quay of Pennsylvania to discharge the committee on territories from further consideration of what is known as the omnibus territorial bill-a measure to ad- init as States the Territories, of Oklaho- ma, New Mexico and Arizona. MT. Quay spoke briefly, but forcibly in support of his motion. maintaining that both politi- cal parties in national convention had pledged themselves to the admission to Statehood of the territories.
 Mir. Beveridge Qnd.) chairman of the committee said the measure had been put over until next session of the committee, because it was not believed there was time now to consider it properly.
 No action was taken on the motion.
 During the greater part of the session the unfinished business, the bill ratifying a convention with the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians was under discussion. It was not disposed of.

Rsciprocity Situation.

The administration has not pulled It. self together since the defeat of Cuban reciprocity. It is the general belief that Mir Roosevelt will make no more sugges- lions at this session. Congress is in too uncertain a mood, and the chances of a second rebuke are too great. The party leaders wish to relieve the situation by adiourning as soon as possible. But it is reasonably certain that Congress has broken with Roosevelt dn1 there are to be numerous other turn downs at the next session. If q Democratic house is re- turned and that begins to look more probable every day. it's first and main ob- feet will be to embarrass the occupant of the White House as much as possible. If the Democrats should not be SO for tunate as to carry the fall elections there will still be sufficient opposition in Re- publican ranks to combine with the Dem ocrats in making his life miserable. Roosevelt has brought the trouble on himself. He threw all precedents and policy to the winds almost before Presi- dent Mckinley was cold. He began making appointments without consulting Congressmen--often in defiance of them. This was something new. It was strcn- uous Some of his friends in the metro politau press 'sicked' him on. They told how he had a contempt for mere machine politicians.

into the Frateville
 Mine Disaster.

Knoxville, Tenn. June 2S,-The inquest into the cause of the Fraterville mine ex- plos.cn, May 10. was resumed at Coal Creek tl1i smorning.
 Attorneys for the Coal Creek Coal Con pany, owner of tho fated mine, ob- jected to the investigation on the grounds that three jurymen were relatives of men killed in the mine. and also that the law requires affidavits from two witnesses, charging that unlawful violence caused the deaths, before an inquest can he held.
 The coroner overruled the first objection, but sustained that as to affidavits. These pspers were flied by two witnesses, and the inquest proceeded.
 Charles Probert, a mining expert, tes- tified it was a dust explosion and the men died of suffocation, James Lewis. an expert. swore it was a gas explosion, suffccation causing death He said he had seen mines in many States in which explosions had occurred, but there was less destruction in this than in any he had witnessed.
 The inquest will be continued through ton orrow.

County Politics.

I find some county politics and learn that Hon. Joseph Norwood of this place and Capt. c. P. Rogers of Letohatchis are candidates to represent this. the Six teenth Senatorial District, in the Senate. They are both strong men and popular citizens and 1t will be a battle royal between them, for when 'GreelS meets Greek then comes the tug of war" These is to be straight primary and with all old time entanglements and environments removed, with only H5 legal white votes the contest is confined to these to decide it and the result cannot he foretold. with any degree of certainty. and yet it is very certain that Lowndes will be ably and faithfully represented in the event of the success of either. Captain Rog ;rs and Mir Norwood were both members af the late Constitutional Convention and were zealous and untiring fin the dis charge of their duties. Captain Rogers has also represented Lowndes in both houses of the legislature and has large legislative experience.
