ton OF the Crop,

New York, September Io.--.A special "a
the Journal of Commerce from Washing-
ton says the news of the discredit thrown
upon the cotton report OF the Agricultural
department has already aroused marked in-
terest in Washington.
An attempt was made this afternoon to
obtain from Mr., Hyde a definite state
ment Of the methods by which his results
were arrived at. He, however, declined
TO discuss the subject under any conditions.
He said II refuse to say word as :
intend to issue very shortly statement
concerning the report issued by me on tho
sd instant, and | do not wish to antici-
pate it."
Mr., Hyde also stated that he had tele-
graphed the New Orleans cotton exchange
and the New York Journal of Commerce
and Commercial Bulletin concerning the
feeling towards the department prevalent
among cotton dealers and brokers in New
York,
To a question regarding the cause Of
the falling off in cotton the curt reply
was merely returned;
Ut was due 10 severe drouth and the
ravages of boil weevilV
Several men today recalled tbs fact,
in connection with Mr. Hydes statement,
OF his intention to publish tn explana-
ton of his latest cotton report, that just
such statements had been made by him
on several occasions in the past concern
ing other reports None of these cxpla-
nations, however, say the men. have been
published.
Apropos OF the dissatisfaction Ia the
New York market and Of the fact that
the statistical investigating committee
10 coming 10 Washington next week. the
suggestion has been prevalent this after
noon that the New York Cotton Exchange
should send on one or two representatives
who should inquire into the methods Of
the department of agriculture in getting
out the cotton reports.
The general opinion seems 70 be that
Mr.. Hyde's refusal to make any state.
mcnt concerning the cotton report must
be very quickly offset by a published
statement, or falling in this, that an I'M
vestigatiol should be made, preferably
at the time that the statistical committee
visits Washington next week, while inter-
est in the matter is still strong.

THE TABLEAU.

At this juncture Green and Hawiey
stepped to the front of the platform and
each grasped the hand Of Lyon, while
the audience went wild with enthusiasm.
Chairman Lyon then invited Rev. D, b.
Dabney OF Seguin to offer divine invo-
cation.
Mayor T. J. Powell welcomed the con
vention to the inequalities Of Fort Worth
in few well-timed remarks, which were
applauded throughout
w. II, Atwell OF Dallas responded 10
the mayors welcome, and said that the
republicans would be found standing patri-
oticaIly together as they formerly stood,
and as the baby grows into manhood, the
party would now serve notice that the
great republican partsis after Texas.
The report OF the executive committee
was as follows:
In the matter Of contests, we submit
that the delegations indicated below were
recognized as constituting the delegates
OF the regular organization in their re-
spcctive counties. and such entitled 70 seats
in this convention: Austin, Cummings

TIE FIGHT ON TRUSTS.
Alleged II win Start at Chicago Against
Railroads.

Alleged II viii Start at Chicago Against
Railroads.
Chicago, September Io.--It was authon-
tativeiy stated here today that Chicago is
to be the storm center of open warfare
by President Roosevelt and his admins
tration against trusts.
In the first conflict the adversaries OF
the government will be thirteen of the
great Western railroads, which are tenn
porarily enjoined from departing from the
published schedule Of freight rates on
packing house products, dressed meats,
grain and other commodities of interstate
commerce,
According to the program, there Is to
begin in the United States circuit court
for the Northern district Of Illinois, on
October IS, one Of the greatest legal bat
ties ever fought in the Federal courts
Of the nation. The government will try
to have the temporary injunction made
permanent.
Vastly important as IS the case against
the beef trust, the government has de-
cided, for reasons Of expediency, 10 give
the suit against the railroads the preced-
ence. The vital issues al stake in the
two cases are identical.

ADMIRAL KILLlcK,s nEArH.

Rather Than Surrender.

He Blew Up His Ship and Killed Himself
Rather Than Surrender.
Gonaives, Hayti, September ro.--An in,
vestigstion made by a correspondent of
the Associated Press into the sinking of
the Firmiuist gunboat Crcte-a- Pierrot at
the entrance of this harbor Saturday,
shows that Admiral Killiek, her COM
mander, personally fred the after magazine.
of that vessel when the German gunboatl
Panther attempted to capture her, and
that he apparently went down with ais
ship.
The Panther, which had previously at
tempted to board the Crete-a-P ierrot, the
latter being moored TO the shore, reversed
her engines when the magazine exploded
and one hour after fired thirty shots from
her guns az the Crete-a-Pierrot in order
20 finish the work Of sinking her. The
Panther then left Gonaiyes
II is claimed here that the rifles and
machine guns Of the Crete-a-Pierrot have
been saved.
The body of Admiral Killick was re-
covered Saturday afternoon and YVES buried
the same evening.
The surgeon 81 the Crete-a- Pierrot. who
was asleep in his cabin and two sailors
OF the vessel also perisAec.
The Panther is expected to reach Cape
Hayden on Friday.
A newspaper Of Port au Prince, July "a.
contained the following telegram from
Admiral Killick to General Boisrond Canal
provisional president Of Hayti:
"Gonaives, July ra.-Boisrond Canal,
Port au Prince Killick does not fear
anything will blow up. ship and company
for the sake of the national honor. You
aloae remain responsible"
Previous TO sending the message to
General Boisrond Canal, Il appears Ad-
mirai Killick had received orders from
the latter to give up his vessel to Lieu-
tenant Reid his second in command, and
it was also reported that the provisional
government had requested the United
States gunboat Marietta and the French
cruiser D'Assas TO capture the Crcfera-
Pierrot, hence the defiant dispatch to
Boisrond Canal.

ma. GREEN,s LErrrR.

The following Is Mr.. Green's letter,
withdrawing from the Craftsmanship race .
Hon. Cecil a. Lyon State Chairman Hon.
r, B. Hawloy, National Committeeman
Fort Worth, Texas. September Io.--The
republicans of Texas, as well as all sincere
friends Of President Roosevelt and his
administration, will rejoice to learn that
you as the official representatives Of the
organization have adjusted our differences.
which have for some months, and until a
few hours ago, seemed irreconcilable and
which threatened TO divide our party
against itself into warning factions, thereby
destroying its usefulness for the campaign
OF 1904.
Assuming and believing that the re-
Cancellation between you is complete and
permanent, and that ii has been prompted
by sincere and patriotic purpose upon
your part to terminate all discord in our
party, there seems now to be nothing which
can mar the enthusiasm, unanimity and
harmony in the State convention which is
about to assemble.
There seems to be no good reason why
we can not at this time wipe out all fac
tioual differences that have divided the
party in the past, SO that all so-called Haw-
ley, I.ydn, Grant and Green men shall
now and forever hereafter work together
on an equal footing, with the sole purpose
in view Of advancing the best interest Of
our party. II this can be accomplished and
the convention shall unanimously and en-
Enthusiastically pledge the republicans Of
Texas TO favor the denomination and re-
election Of President Roosevelt In 1904
/ shall consider that a great work has
been done and that the purpose Of my
mission here has been accomplished.
In that case, there is nothing that could
induce me 10 remain a candidate for the
State Craftsmanship, since my candidacy
for that position was only inspired by the
hope that il would contribute to this re-
suit.
l would be glad to confer with you to
that end. T. II. r. Green.

COLoRED BRETHREN DISsATIs
FLED.

Since the Green-Lyon combine a large
number of the colored delegates are dis
satisfied The fact OF the matter is that
the colored brother feels that he has not
been treated Just as he should have been.
The combinations which led 10 the alleged
harmony tend to white supremacy, and
while the eolorcd delegates have been treat
ed with courtesy and it is said that com
siderable money was turned into their
hands before the combines were effected,
they we're not consulted in the harmony
