Tho South Is Slow in Turning Oul-
Finer Grades Of Gooda.
Houston Post: The rapid growth OF
cotton manufacturing In the south has
become a source of frequent comment
concluding mostly with the remark that
while we are doing mach and doing
well in this particular we should do
more and do better. In other words.
intelligent observers of the south's
progress in the turning Of the staple

It may be objected that the south Is
mot as yet prepared to compete In the,
manufacture of cotton goods Of the
highest grade; that it must feel its
lway.to the top of the ladder of produce
Ition in this particular. Admitting, FOE
the sake of argument, tina there Is
something in this, there is no good
treason for not making atfeW steps into

ltend that the south is not ultimately
destined to work up the bulk OF its raw

How Cheap Baking Powder is Made.
IA recent seizure Of a lot of Cheap
|9baking powders by the authorities of
a neighboring city has exposed the
character of the low priced brands Of
baking powders which many manufac-
turers are Offering throughout the
country. The price of the powders
first attracted attention to them. Sam
Piles We're taken and analysed The Of
fetal report OF the analysis showed the
stuff to be alum powders," composed
chiefly of alum, sulphuric acid and pull
verified rock. The powders We're de-
clared dangerous to health and several
thousand pounds We're sconfiscated and
destroyed.
Physicians have frequently cautioned
consumers against mixing food with
these so-called cheap" baking pow
ders. They az. all found, when
analysed, to contain large percentages
of alum and sulphuric acid, to which
are added various sorts. Of filling mat
ter, sometimes both injurious ano
nasty.
The high class, cream of tartar bak-
ing powders are the most economical.
and wholesome and should always be
selected for use. They will be found
cheaper in the end, besides making the
food better and more healthful.

DENOUNCES PREACHERS ARREST.
Magistrate Thinks Attempt to Railroad"
Some One Was Made.

Magistrate Ommen. in Jefferson Market court
yesterday. accused Patrolman Converse. or west
Thireth-st station. with having some ulterior mo
tive for arresting Justin R Rice. the husband of
Mrs Margaret Z. Rice. the street evangelist. on a
charge OF preaching without license. He not only
discharged the prisoner. but announced his inten-
ton OF making a thorough investigation Into the
causes that led Up to the arrest
In the examination OF Rice much bitter feeling
was shown by both sides. Converse accusing Mr.
and Mrs Rice with being common fakirs. wro ex-
horted only for their particular remuneration
Mrs Rice on tho ether hand. charged the police
man with melting her auditors into calling her

When Rice arraigned Patrolman Converse ex-
pIained that he had arrested him at the instiga-
ton OF four or five business men in the neighbor-
hood Of Broadway and Twenty-seventh-st., who
pronounced his singing a public nuisance. He de-
clared that Mrs Rice had license allowing her TO
preach. but that her husband had no license and
was violating the law in singing. Mrs. Rice showed
her license which, she said. was the same as that
used BY the Salvation Army, and carried with II
the right 10 have singer at her meetings She
said she had been told by Mayor Low and Secre-
tary Reynolds that her license gave her the same
rights as those Of the Salvation Army. which had
only one license for each band
Mrs Rice exhibited letters from the Rev. DIR.
Robert s. Macarthur. OF Calvary Baptist Church.
and other persons prominent in religious services,
in which they commended her efforts.
''Oficer Converse said the magistrate. sternly.
for some reason other you are making suspi-

As far as / can see. there has been absolutely no
excfse for the arrest Of this man. He has the
same right to sing the street as have the men,

as hacker for Quintard.
Mr.. Goodrich was walking past the elephant
when IL reached out fits trunk and, catching him,
drew him back hurled him heavily TO the ground
and then jabbed him with one Of its tusks
The tusk was not capped and the ivory was
driven through Mr.. Quintard's left thigh The
tusk made a hole five inches across where 1t en-
tered and one three inches across where II
emerged on the other side OF the hip The ele-
phant instantly withdrew the tusk and pre-
pared to stamp on Mr.. Quintard. when one OF
the circus employees jabbed the animal with
pitchfork and drove il away.

and ran out OF the grounds and to a swamp
where il disported itself for two hours before
il was recaptured.
Mr. Goodrich was taken TO the North Hud-
son Hospital where the wound was dressed

,Pittsburg Company to Buy Control
of RiUer Concern.

Pittsburg, Sept T.-Offcial sanction was given
to the purchase of the control of the MonOn-
Rahela Consolidated Coal and Coke Company
to-day by the board of directors of the Pitts
burg Coal Company. The deal is not merger
of the two companies. and there is no inten-
ton of making it a merger. according to the
official statement of President Frank l. Rob

under the direction of the Pittsburg Coal Com
pany in the future and there will be no compe-
tition in the sales department or conflicting in
terests. President ]. B. Finley of the MonOn-
gahela company is to retire. and il is likely
that President Robbins of the Pittsburg com
pany will become the official head of the River
company There will be other change IN
officials, the two companies being conducted as
independent of each other. in the past
President Robbins was asked II there was any
thing done at the meeting about the negotiations
with the Pennsylvania and other railroads and
the coal company. He replied that these nego-
tiations only generally discussed He did
not think that any public statement would be
made concerning them for at least thirty days.
This proposition. he said. did not involve the
selling of any stock of the company or The sale
of anything belonging to the Pittsburg Coal
Company. 1t was of an entirely different nature
than has generally been surmsed and when it
was given to the stockholders all would be made
clear.
Regarding the stories afloat that the deal with
the Pennsylvania and other transportation lines
in Pittsburg is intended in a measure. TO cut
off the Wabash Railroad tonnage. Mr.. Robbins
emphasized his denial of this report, saying that
absolutely nothing of that kind was considered
or even hinted at. and that the Wabash would
be as warmly welcome to this field by the Pitts
burg Coal Company as any other line.

BELLEVUE AFFAIR ENDS.
DR.. Brannan Meets COmpldinants-
Latter admit Error.
JONES TO BE TRIED WEDNESDAY,

AS a result of the petition sent to the COM
mittee of inspection Of the medical board OF
Bellevue Hospital by ten Of the staff of physi-
clans protesting against the suspension of Dr.
W. B. Jones' and the alleged discourteous treat
rnent of the staff in general by Dr. Mabon, the
superintendent, DIR. John w. Brannan, president
of the board of trustees of Bellevue, called the
ten doctors in question to a conference at his
home No. IL West Twelfth-st, last night. As
a result of the conference the young physicians
agreed that they had erred in criticising Dr.
Mabon, and that far they were concerned
they would let the affair drop
This decision was reached after DR.. Brannan
had assured the staff that he would be with Dr.
Mabon TO the end and that it wouIo be easier
TO fill their places than it would to I'LL that of
Dr. Mabon. He pra'1ed the latter in high
terms. and declared him to be the best superin-
tendent that Bellevue ever had.
DR.. Brannan began by telling his callers that
the hospital was run on a regular plan, and
that there could be only one head. He said
that DR.. Jones had overstepped the bounds Of
his authority. and that DR.. Mabon had been
justified in suspending him He pointed out
many things that DR.. Mabon had done for the
benefit Of the physicians and nurses. and those
present agreed with him. He also spoke OF
Miss Delano. the superintendent OF nurses.
against whom complaint had been made, ana
said that she the best head of the training
school Bellevue had ever known. The doctors
asked President Brannan TO define Miss Deano's
authority. and he told them that. as superin-
tendent Of nurses. she had the right to transfer
nurses as she pleased when she thought 1t best
for the discipline OF the school
After talking two hours. according to pr'
Brannan, the ten young physicians agreed with
him that Dr. Mabon was doing excellent work
for Bellevue and that he hadn't been so bad
after all Dr. Brannan said that DR.. Jones
would be tried before the Inspection comHlttee
on wednesday of this week He gave IL as his
opinion that Dr. Jones would be reinstated with
8 renrimand.
