Lawlessness Feared at Tonopah.

Ao WtNoohSos RC0tC& OF htp0
A dispatch from Tonopah says there
is a great deal of criticism expressed
among the better class of citizens in
Tonopah at the outcome of the trial of
Smith for the murder of Walter Dunn,
and it is generally felt that the thing
is not altogether straight, for the evi.
dence went to show that Smith was not
wholly without blame. The result Of
the trial of Smith and that of the
Chinese rioters may have q tendency to
encourage lawlessness in Tonopah, but
it is possible that the next killing in
this region will receive some little i'm
mediate attention from the citizens
direct, as the authorities can hardly be
depended upon in all instances to Sc
cure the results most desired for the
good Of the community.

A test of a flying machine made on
the coast of North Carolina, by the in.
ventor last week, was a complete sue

who, If he has no bad luck, will be a
very rich man. He has sawnills and
turpentine mills, sends big consign-
ments of naval stores to Savannah

cane and cotton, fattens and kills his
own hogs, and is a large employer of
labor.

One of our chief industries is the pro-
duction of spirits of turpentine and

mand at a present price that is highly
remunerative. Savannah is the great

are fixed there. 1t will not be many
years, however, until our Georgia for

now pine lands are getting scare.

after that time It is cut down and sent

Drafting Law-Win Present
Amended Form of Buffalo Agree
ment to COmmissiOn-Win Not
Make Public Changes Proposed.
New York, Aug. 3O-A meeting of the
National Association of Baseball Clubs
was held in this city to-day. Among
those present were T. ]. Hickey of the
American Association, NJ. H. Sexton
of the Western League, w. M. Kava-
naugh of the Southern League, P. I.
Powers of the Eastern League. E. c.
Packard of the Western League, be-
sides representatives of minor leagues
and of individual clubs.
The purpose of the meeting was to
discuss and frame an answer to the
big leagues concerning the position the
small leagues will take regarding the
national agreement the National AS
ISOLATION has been invited to sign. The
bone of contention is a membership on
the national board.
That board now consists of Presi-
dent Pulliam of the National League,
President johnson of the American
League and August Hermann of the
Cincinnati National League Club The
minor leagues claim that they are the
bone and sinew of baseball, have
larger following all over the country
than the two major leagues, and there
fore should be represented on the ma
tional board. The other articles of
agreement that do not suit the minor
leagues are the drafting law and the
method of paying for players drafted.
After the meeting Secretary Far
rel gave out the following statement:
THE meeting unanimously decided that
1t could not subscribe to the agreement
presented at Buffalo, and the Nation
al Association Committee was author
lied to present the Buffalo agreement
in amended form to the Buffalo COM
mission.
"A resolution was adopted that it
was the sense of the members of the
National Association present that we
adhere to the terms of the Lucas reso-
luton unanimously adopted at the an
nual meeting of the association held
last October.
THE Lucas resolution provided that
In the event of a joint invitation being
extended to the National Association
to confer with the Board of Directors
of the National, and the American
Leagues in the interest of tripartite
of the National Association should pre-
serve to the National Association its
present form of government, and it's in
dividual organization supreme, and in
tact, and it was also resolved that the
instructions were mandatory and com
pulsOrv.
What the amended form of agree
ment the National Association would
present to the Buffalo commission will
be, Mr. Farrell refused to say.

Manchester Cloth Market.

Manchester, Aug. 30-The tone Of the
cloth market last week was steady and
hardening. The appearance Of a gen.
eral inquiry was rather encouraging,
though there was considerable differ
ence of opinion regarding the progress
of business. Some sellers reported
more business, while others complained
of continued slackness. There were
fair sales in the lower grades of In
dia shirtings, prices being often low
er. Some business was done in sheet
ings for China. Heavy goods found
few buyers. Trading on South Ameri-
can account was slightly more active.
Yarns were stronger. Uses of twists
and welt cops from American cotton
purchased more freely and the manu-
facturers cleared up many stocks.
