your attitude as soldiers at Sea Grit,

cumstances, the treatment you re-
ceived is not adjudged to be about
what your deserved.
During our stay at Sea Grit, the ten

of disinterested contestants relative to
your position was that after your pro-

appeared. The men who were held up
were inclined to treat their experience
as joke, but some of the citizens of
Pelham heard of the matter and
brought it to the attention of the vii
lage president, William B. Randall,
who was forced to act.
Accordingly, a warrant was sworn
out, and it was served to-day by Chief
Marks, who found young Strachan at
the office of S. Mum, Sons & Co., in
Beaver street. He brought the broker
to Pelham Manor tonight and he was
arraigned before Justice of the Peace
Hill, who held him in $500 for trial
Bail was furnished by Horace Hatch,
a wealthy resident of the Manor The
young broker when arraigned still de-

when they rushed at him were rob

1t was reported tonight that some of
the people of Pelham Manor, indignant
at the way their police officer had
been treated would bring the whole
affair before the governors of the Ath-

Strachan, a young cotton broker of
New York, was arrested to-day by
Chief of Police Marks of Pelham Ma

the result of some fun which he had
on Sunday night at the expense of the
Pelham Manor police.

were surprised upon reaching the pros

level a big revolver at them. The
broker declared to the officer and the
artist that they were robbers, and he
told them to throw up their hands or
he would kill them. The two men, I'M

NEARLY A PANIC.
Iucipient Fire Next to Music lIau
Causes COmmOtion.

Cincinnati, sept 2O.-The unusually
successful celebration attending Presi-
dent Roosevelts visit here came very
near being marred tonight with
panic that would have caused a count
less loss of life. 1t is estimated that
there were over 5000 people packed in
to the auditorium when the President
began speaking. At the same time the
adjoining Exposition halls were crowd
ed with people viewing the exhibits, as
they were unable to gain admittance
into the Music Hall After the Presi-
dent had been speaking fifteen min
utes there was a great commotion in
Mechanical Hall adjacent to Music
Hall on the north. The sparks from
an electric wire had set
curtain on fire and the fire
department had been called
TO the scene. The police
and attendants of the exposition soon
put out the fire but they had much
more trouble in controlling the alarm
ed crowd, and 1t was with great diff

ment from rushing into the building.
Happily one of the bands struck up.
and those who had left the auditorium
were supposed to be going out to stop
the band rather than to head off
panic. Very few in the auditorium
where the President was speak
ing knew anything about the
incident and the President suffered
only a slight interruption without
knowing the cause of it. The aisles
of the auditorium and all Of the stand
ing room about the exits were packed
with people, as we'll as the great bal
cony and the great gallery. Had there
been cry of fire or any knowledge of
what was going on among those in
the auditorium, ihe fatal results could
not be estimated. The information re-
garding the incident in the adjoining
hall was carefully kept until after the
hall was cleared and even then it
caused a shuddering sensation about
the grounds and Throughout the city.

Internal SuuabbIes Among timer
ant Gypsies Furnish Interest.
Valdosta. Ga, Sept. 20.-Two bands
of gypsies on the outskirts of town
have been contributing their part to
the life of things this week. At first,
one from a party on the south of here
came in and created disturbance
among some children on Troupe street
and was pulled by the police. His
brother came into help him out of his
trouble, but got in a row with some
negroes at Happy Chance Hall, and
was also pulled by an officer.
Last night, the crowd on the north
of the city went on the war path, and
TIL women and children of the party
flocked to the city to get the officers
to go to the rescue. The fighting oc-

local police had no authority to arrest
the belligeernts, though one of them
and deputy sheriff went out to see
what was going on. They found that
the men had left for the swamps, while
the women said that all had made
friends and everything was serene in
the CAMPS.
This morning the officers visited the
camps again and found everything al
right? The fighters were pretty well
bruised up, but parties living in the
neighborhood say that it was a fair

but the fighters were disturbed by it.
No arrests were made.
1t is reported to-day that Mr.. S. B.
Goodwin, one of the most prominent
business men of Valdosta, is laying at
the point of death at his home on Hill
avenue. His condition was reported as
hopeless last night and since then his
death has been expected at almost any
time. Mr.. Goodwin came to this city
from Berrien county fifteen or twenty
years ago, having served as sheriff
there. He began business here and has
prospered, occupying many places of
public trust, and accommodating quite a
good fortune. He was a member of
the Board of Alderme,A%'or number of

the Street Committee, where he did
good service. He was director of the
First National Bank, the Valdosta

fering with constitutional trouble,
and it is reported this evening that

SEA ISLAND Al VALDOSTA.
Decrease i'm Price brings Receipts
Down TO Almost Nothing.

Valdosta, Ga, Sept. 20-The receipts
of sea island cotton in this market
have dwindled down to almost moth
ing since the decline in prices a week
or so ago. The receipts for the sea-
son here amount TO about 300 bales,
though only fifteen or twenty bales
have been received this week. The
staple is little off in color, but the
quality is about the same as last
year.
1t is claimed. too, that the weather
conditions for the past ten days have
been very much against a clear, clean
staple, there having been a good deal
of rain and cloudy weather. Local
buyers are paying about port prices
for the staple, but the farmers refuse
TO turn it loose at present prices. Well
posted local cotton men claim that
the crop for Florida, a well as through
this entire section, will be far short
of the present outlook, and this be-
lief is so general that farmers will
not part with their cotton at present
prices. The receipts here to-day were
three bales, whereas it should have
been fifty or a hundred.
A negro named Lucius Sutton DELHI
erately destroyed a deed which he
Claimed TO nave to about an acre of
good land in the northern part wf the
city last night and this morning in
formed the policemen of it. He had
been trying to sell the land, Calming
that he bought it from a man named
W. r. Jackson for $3.50. Chief Dampier
thought that the land belonged to Mrs.
r. S. Thigpen and when he met Sutton
he told him that somebody was fixing
to get in big trouble about selling land
which did not belong to them. This
morning Sutton approached one of the
police officers and showed him the
cancelled deed to the land. 1t is be-
lieved that the negroes were in a plot
to steal the land and having found
that their game was discovered they
decided to cancel the deed which they
had made.

man Bros. created a good deal of ex-

whipped the flying horse into changing
its course. This threw the Animal
