New York, August 15.-The cotton mar ket opened easy at decline of two to six points and following the call ruled quiet and particularly featureless with prices nuctuatng within a point or two Of the opening figures. The decline was under the lower cables and realizing which was also encouraged by the apparent disap- pearance of the tropical storm as factor and by the favorable average of crop weather accounts. There seemed little disposition to sell aggressively, however preceding the closing of the market for over Sunday and after the opening losses the market showed little tendency either way.

that it was an old auger hole, he pro-
ceeded to investigate the strange hole in
the plank. The more he examined the
hole the more thoroughly he was of Tire
opinion that it was an auger hole. He
dug deeper into the auger hole and to
his great surprise and exceeding Joy he
pulled out a twenty dollar gold certifi
cate. The date shows that the bill was
made twenty-five years ago. 1t was in q

that Bud ought to divide the money
among the crowd but not so. Bud would
not hear to IL and packing it away in
his old purse he declared that that twenty

Greensboro, n. c., Nov. 1I.-(Speclal)
Last night some white men met some ne
gro men on East Market and III a few
minutes there was scrap. From scrap
it grew into fight and soon into regu-
lar war. No one knows how 1T started,
though both sides claim that the others
cursed them. Fists were first used. but
soon a knife was brought into play and
this brought other knives and razoos,
when there was some disastrous work
done. Two white men and two negroes
were lacerated, one of each being 50 bad
ly cut that they had to be hauled home
One of the white men had seven stitches
taken in his breast and arms, his coat was
cut into shreds, but his antagonist did not
escape. He was carved to the bone on his
left breast, a big piece of meat being sim
ply carved out. The wounded were finally
removed from the field to their homes and
physicians were summoned Today the
whole layout were said to be doing fairly
well, except the white man, and his case
is yet in doubt, for his fever being high
No arrests were made for the reason that
the parties are too badly wounded to be
locked up.
