RAYTI REVOLUTION.
ReyoIutionists Defeated-Exeitement at
BIuefieIds.

Mobile, Ala, July ia private letter
from Bluefelds gives details of the repulse
of Reyes and the revolutionists on July Z.
Martial law was declared on the fifth OF
July and there were hurried movements
of government troops on the following day.
The citizens hosted flags for protection,
and Jamaica negroes in great numbers
came into town seeking aid of the British
consul. The town itself was guarded at
all points, although it was known that
the bluff was to be the point of attack. On
Saturday large barge carrying soldiers
arrived from Rama and was at once order
ed TO proceed to the bluff. Reports came
that the Colombian war vessel had also
landed troops at the bluff, and an impress
nent of negroes was made to serve as a
home guard. The fight proved TO be a
small affair." although brisk while it lasted.
On the government side two were brought
in dead and three wounded, with thirty
prisoners, two being officers. There was
great rejoicing when Reyes was known
but as there was apprehension of a land
ing of revolutionists at another point,
military precautions were continued.
Reyes defeat was due chiefly to an
accident. His invasion was made on the
steamer Pinson. He landed one party at
the bluff in large boat, but the second
boat overturned in the heavy sea, and The
extra ammunition and supplies were lost.
The insurgents were afraid to make sec
ond attempt to laud troops, and those who
had been pat ashore were overcome, killed
or captured. The Pinson, being short OF
coal, put to sea, but is expected to return
with more men. The government has
obtained a loan of $4,000 $4,000 in
American money! from the merchants OF
Bluefelds. 1T was in the nature Of forced
loan.

TAZEWELL VS.. GRAHAM
A Rather 0nesided But an Interesting
Game.

On last Saturday the Tazewell and Gra-
ham baseball teams crossed bats at this
place. Many of the lookers.on expected
to see a close and hotly contested game,
but were badly disappointed, the Graham
boys not being allowed to cross the home
plate during the entire game. Our boys
seemed to have on their batting spell and
succeed in batting two of Graham's
pitchers out of the box. At the begin
ming of the third inning it looked as if the
score would be very close but our boys
made runs in each of the next three in.
nirgs.
The Graham team as a usual thing is a
very good one and has Played some fine
games this year but they seemed to lose
out Saturday.
The success of the game, We believe, ls
due to the wonderful skill shown by Boyd
as twister. Graham only making seven
hits off him, andIhe did not let but one
man have first on ball. The feature of the
game was fly ball caught by Rufus Har-
man, Mho ran from short and caught it
in center field.
The score was as follows.

Mr.. MLAURlN DECLINES.
will Not Accept Appointment on the
Court of Claims.

Oyster Bay, July 2l.-President Roose-
welt is in receipt of a letter from Senator
John i. McLaurin, Of South Carolina, de-
Ginning the profered appointment to the
vacancy on the bench of the United States
Court of Claims The President, 1t can
be said, much regrets Senator McLaurin's
decision, as he believes that McLaurlns
Senatorial experiences and his car eer as
attorney general of South Corolina would
have rendered him a particularly good
addition to the Court of Claims.
The President now is uncertain what he
will do about Senator McLaurin. 1t is un'
derstood that he is anxious to appoint him
to some position in recognition of what The
President regards as bis service to the
country, and his demonstrated ability in
public life. Senator McLaurin'e letter is
couched in the most positive terms, and
evidently was based in particular upon a
newspaper article which accompanied the
letter. The article stated that the Senator
had sold himself for the prospect of get
ting such an Office as that offered to him.
1t can be said, however, that the Presl-
dent REGARDED such type of accusation as
beneath notice and sincerely regrets that
Senator McLaurin should have deemed it
necessary to pay any attention to it.
Senator McLaurin evidntly has changed
his mind about accepting the proffered
appointment since he was in Oyster Bay
on July H. At that time his readiness to
accept the vacancy upon the Court OF
Claims was announced, and the only ques'
ton then was when he sh ould resign from
the Senate.

HAWAII AND THE TARIFF.
Decision by the General Appraisers
Board of Classification.

NEW YORK, March 3.-The board of
classification of the United States general
appraisers to-day announced a decision re-
garding the status of Hawaii and the tariff
laws. A manufacturing company imported
a hundred tons of old scrap iron from
Hawaii and the collector at San Francisco
assessed the regular duty on it. The COM
paDy filed a protest. claiming that Hawaii
was part of the United States, and that
consequently no duties could be levied on
goods imported from there since the pas
sage of the act to provide a government
for the Territory of Hawaii. The cargo
was entered at the custom house April 80
1900. the very day the act went into effect
The board OF classification holds that I'M
der the doctrine laid down by the Supreme
Court Of the United States in the insular
tariff cases the protest should be dismissed
for want of jurisdiction. Judge Somerviie
writes the opinion Of the majority of the
board. He says that the customs adminis-
trative act which provides for hearings
before the board gives it jurisdiction only
in cases where the rate or amount of duty
usually chargeable upon imported mer-
chandise is to be determined 1t would not
have jurisdiction IN case of goods brought
in from Hawaii since the passage Of the act
providing a government for the Territory
The protest should, therefore, be dismissed
General Appraiser Fischer writes a dis
sentng opinion. He holds that even where
the claim is made that the board has no
jurisdiction it should go into the matter
with sufficient care TO determine whether
not the claim is good in the present
case, however, there was proper Ger
tificate of origin" as required by law. and
the merchandise in question may have been
the production of some country outside of
either Hawaii or the United States. He
SAYS. therefore. that the protest should be
overruled all grounds and the decision
of the collector affirmed.

MEETS WITH OPPOSITION
REFORM WHICH MAKES TROUBLE
FOR RAILWAY TICKET AGENTS.
A Peculiar Decision as to What Con.
stitutes BaERage-MisceIIane
and Personal Notes.

BY a recent reform which has been adopt
ed in Illinois and Ohio, and by the Van
dalia and the Big Four's St. Louis division.
a rule is in effect that no charge shall be
made by a railroad for a fraction of a
mile. a ruling that effects many way sta
tons 1t makes the rate to Greencastle
by either line. formerly s1.27. now 1926: to
Terre Haute, formerly 1886 for round trip,
sS.91; to Plainfeld. formerly 20 cents. now
"A cents way. Charles Stilz. general
ticket agent at the Union Station. says
the people who travel over those roads
understand the change, and some are
pleased over the slight reduction. while
others are displeased over the increase
of or cents. 1t is understood that other
indianapolis lines will adopt a similar
course. Roads in Ohio and Illinois are re-
quired by law to sell tickets on an actual
mileage basis of cents per mile. as is
the case on the Vandalia and the st. Louis
division Of the Big Four. Reports current
are to the effect that the Pennsylvania has
found the court ruling inconsistent and
has taken an aggressive stand in hopes that
the case may be reopened for argument.
At the conference held at Pittsburg the
matter was discussed thoroughly, and it
is reported the decision reached by the
Pennsylvania that revision will be
made. Representatives of the lines in
Ohio have been instructed to act in &C
cordance with the court ruling, as have
all the other lines in Ohio. The Pennsyl-
vania is the only railroad that has shown
| the aggressive spirit in this affair. 1t is
held that the ruling is unjust accord
ing to the statutes. the fare for nine miles
being less than that for eight. At the rate
of cents a mile it would be q cents for
nine miles, but under the law must be made
nearest the multiple of five, or, in other
words, 25 cents. Ii is on this point that the
! Pennsylvania officials have taken their
| stand. The opinion is held that another
/ ruling should be made in order 10 eliminate
the alleged unfairness of the present law.

March.

The stormy March Is come al last
With wind. and cloud. and changing skies.
/ hear the rushing OF the blast.
That through the snowy valley flies.
All passing they who speak
wild stormy MONTH in praise OF thee:
Yet though thy winds are loud and bleak
Thou art a welcome month TO
For thou TO Northern lands. again
The glad and glorious sun dOst bring
And thou hast Joined the gentle train
And wears the gentle name OF Spring
And in thy reign of blast and storm
Smiles many long, bright, sunny day.
When the changed winds soft and warm
And heaven puts on the blue OF May
Then sing aloud the gushing rills
In JOY that they again are free,
And brightly leapiEg down the hills,
Renew their journey to the sea
The years departing beauty hides
OF wintry storms the sullen threat.
Eut In thy sternest frown abides
look OF kindly promise yet.
Thou brine'st the hope OF those calm skies
And that soft time of sunny showers.
When the wide bloom earth that lies
seems OF a brighter world than ours.

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKET
THE WEEK OPENS WITH 4 GOOD
TRADE AND FIRM PRICES.
Small Cut i'm Refined Sugar at New
YOrk-Light Arrivals in the Local
Market for Grain.

The week opened with considerable &C
tivity in trade circles. Travelling statesmen.
during the latter part of last week. brought
in good orders, and with mail orders and a
number of buyers who were in the city
business was above the average at this
season. The dry goods houses are doing an
unusually good business for so early in the
season. as are the wholesale grocers and
the confectioners in their lines. On Com
mission row there was considerable activ-
ity, weather conditions permitting the
shipment of perishable articles in closed
without warming them. as they have
been obliged to do heretofore. In prices
there were no important changes. Con-
trary to expectations the commission
merchants did not drop prices on any arti-
Gle that comes into general consumption.
Irish and sweet potatoes carry a weaker
tone, but only to effect large sales would
the commission men shade prices. The sup
ply of both seems ample to meet all de-
mands. Choice apples are really scarce and
some inferior fruit is now selling at higher
prices than could have been obtained few
weeks ago. Oranges are fast movers and
prices are well maintained. The fruit is
large and well ripened. Were prevailing
prices for fruits and vegetables as low as
usual in early March trade would now be
booming. Canned goods and dried fruits are
moving freely and at good prices. Staple
groceries are selling well. Seldom do prices
go along from week to week with so few
fluctuations in the grocery line, but all
goods are now sold on close margins and
there is little room for shading prices or
for making bad bills. The provision mar
ket. with a good home and export demand,
is active. and prices are steady at the re-
vision of yesterday. Indications are for a
good March trade should weather cOndi-
tons be favorable, much depending on the
condition of the roads. Receipts of poultry
are increasing and of eggs also, but with an
active demand prices are well held. Choice
butter is still in good request. Sugar is I'M
changed locally, but all refined grades were
cut points at New York.
