4 Are Building Vessels.

Pascagoula, Miss Sept. Is -Lum-
Der manufacturers and exporters on
the Mississippi coast are now having
their own vessels built for forei gn
trade, and in the near future it is
probable that the bulk of the lumbe r
trade will be carried in home vessels.
Schooners with from two to seven
masts, and of commensurate. beam
md light draft are being constructed
both for the coastwise trade and for
trips to Mexico, Cuba, South Ameri-
"a and the West Indian ports. These
vessels have distinct advantage over
The foreign ships for they load direct
1t the landings along the Pascagoula,
Pearl and Escatawpa rivers and have
} carrying capacity of from 175, 600
70 4O0,O feet of lumber, max ing
quick trips and being capable Of with.
standing almost any kind Of weather.
The shipyards at Pascagoula are of
sufficient capacity to overhaul these
vessels and make them seaworthy,
and the gulf ports are fast becoming
self sustaining in providing their own
transportation for the lumber trade.
With improved harbor facilities the
growth Of business along the coast
will steadily continue and the govern
ment is display ing an inclination for
the betterment Of the channels along
tho entire course of Mississippi's sea
front.

Contest for the Palma Trophy

Ottawa, Ont, Sept 15.-Much in

which is being shot off today on the
new Dominion rife ranges. In itself,
the trophy amounts to comparatively
little, but it stands for the champion

Last year a Canadian rife team went

Whitfield r1urder Mystery.

Corinth, Miss, Sept. 1S-The de-
velopments in the Whitfield murder
mystery today have been few. The
interest in the case, though, is not
waning. but instead is increasing.
The publication in today's Memphis
Morning News of the new features in
the case have caused much comment.
These features were not generally
known. Their publication has caused
many people to speculate as to the
new suspect. The officials conducting
the investigations are now keeping
very quiet as to what they have dis
covered or as to their new theories.
No additional arrests were made to-
day. The body of Mrs. Whitfield has
not yet been exhumed for a chemical
analysis of the stomach. The officers
say that both are probable and may be
anticipated at any time.

LIPTON'S THIRD CHALLENGER
American Sportsmen Believe that
1t Is Building.

Although it has been Impossible SO
far to get a confirmation of the rumor,
it is generally believed among Ameri-
can yachtsmen that Sir Thomas Lip
ton has arleady begun the construction
of third challenger for the Amari-
cans cup. The report gains here
daily and is received with mingled
surprise and pleasure; with the latter
because the news gives assurance OF
great sport; with the former, beca use
the opinion seems to prevail that it is
the intention of the EngIishmen, if
possible, to catch the Americas cup
defenders mapping. IF Upton is build
ing another challenger, the question
OF another defender becomes Of vital
Importance. Members Of sthe New
York Yacht Club who are in posi-
ton to discuss the matter refuse to do
so, but it is safe to say that if new
defender is constructed, it will be
built by q syndicate composed of men,

TAX LEVY INCREASE.

S94S, Sra 30, but in spite of this show
ing the board advanced the levy from
four and one-fourth mills on the dol

citizens are entering a strenuous pro-
test, claiming that the increase in
valuation ought to justify q decrease
instead Of a higher figure.
The county made special levy for
the extension of the rural school tax,
but it's finances are in. good shape,
and it is regarded as rather singular
that the Board should deem the in.

the growth of the business and as

pertaining to the organization s

more than ordinary Importance to
come before the present convention.
Foremost among these is the case Of
P j. MCGUIRE, former national sec.
rotary treasurer of the brotherhood,
who was arrested six months ago
charged with embezzling $4,000 of
the funds Of the organization. The
national executive board effected q
compromise with Mcclure, but gen.
eraI vote of the members overruled
the action Of the board and the mat
ter is now up to the convention to
decide whether criminal proceedings
shall be taken. Mcclure, who
for many years has been
one Of the most prominent labor
leaders of America, has many warm
friends and supporters and it is posi-
BILE that their influence may be
strong enough to prevent any severe
measures being taken against him.
There is surprising little talk heard
among the delegates in regard to the
election Of new officers. Several names
are mentioned in connection with the
various places to be filed, but there
are no avowed candidates ana the
outcome of the balloting is problem
