MEMPHIS MEET TUESDAY.
Grand Circuit Season Begins This
 Week-Some Biz Features.

Memphis Tenn. October 1S.-Probably the most important harness meeting of the present Grand Circuit season will be- gin here at the track of the Memphis Trotting association on Tuesday next. The programme covers a period of eight days and six well filled stakes are an nounced by the management.
 The feature of the meeting will occur on the opening day, when the two fast est trotters in the world, Lou Dillon and Major Delmar, both with a mark of two minutes flat, will compete for the Mem- phis gold cup. The horses will be driven by their owners, c. K c. Billings and E. b. Smathers, respectively. The track which is now pronounced by experts to be the fastest in the country, has re- ceived special preparation and with good weather conditions, 1t Is confidently expected that several new records will be established. Many horses arrived to- day from Lexington. Lou Dillon, Major Delmar and Dan Patch were given light work today.

the unexpected demand. This passenger traffic has naturally been the chief con- cern of the company up to this time. and the old-fashioned sleepy-lool1ing cars still carry the freight on it's way back and forth from city to port; They are, how ever destined in all probability to be sup planted by freight-carrying eectrics.
 Already the passenger carriages. that only a year ago went ratling along the ancient roadway with all the speed that the people of the tropics knew so well how to get out of their crazy little horses, have practically disappeared.
 The new line was built by native labor with a few imported Italians, whose presence at first caused small strike-a natural introduction, cynical person might say, of American civilization which was settled, however, without much difficulty. Very few negroes were em- ployed; in fact the negro is not as an important factor in Porto Rico as he is in Jamacia. Some zoo or 800 natives were required under the superintendence of small body of eighteen or twenty Americans. The equipment consists at present of half a dozen open cars, opera ted by motormen and conductors lin | khaki kit,''
 A dispatch from Cincinnati says: Hav- ing secured right of way from Jellico to Knoxville Tenn, the Louisville and Nash ville will hurry the construction of it's new line of eighty-two miles, and will secure thereby a short line from Cincin- nati to Jacksonville, 912 miles.

 The following is an abstract from a let ter from Ponce. P. R.:
 What the electric railway is doing and may yet do for Porto Rico, changing the business and social customs of the island making plantations pay where cultivation has languished for years, is an interest," ing example of the industrial occupation of our island dependency. Trolley cars buzzing busily through the Plaza Prln- cipe indicate pretty clearly the change that is coming over the face of sleepy old West Indian communities with the advent of the Yankee

MANCHESTER CLOTH MARKET
Advance in the Price of Cotton Made
 Business More Difficult

Manchester, October 1S.-The cloth mar lSet last week was dull. The advance in the price of cotton rendered business more difficult and the market was dis appointing. Fair inquiry prevailed with some increase in trade, principally for later delivery. Values are approaching more normal level and some makers, tired of having their machinery idle, have accepted offers which they had previous ly declined, in order to secure partial work. The Chinese trade was quiet, pres ent wants of merchants being supplied. The future prospects of the India trade are said to be hopeful but inquiries for the present are generally at impossible limits, and are confined to the booking of light goods, mainly for Bombay Shirt ings were neglected.
 Yarns were stiffer and the inquiry was rather better. The turn over in some directions was somewhat improved.

FATALITY ON SOUTHERN.
Train Derailed and John Pagan, the
 Fireman, is Killed.

Atlanta, Ga. October 1S.-By the de- railment of south bound freight train on the Southern railway, thirty-fve miles north of Atlanta, early this morning John Pagan, a white fireman, was killed. No others were injured.
 The accident occurred about 100 feet north of Pumpkin Vine viaduet, and ten loaded cars and the engine tender went through the bridge, seventy feet high. Conclusive evidence is said to have been discovered that the track had been tam pered with. The angle bars and bolts had been removed from the rail joints on the outside of the curve, showing that the injury was intentional Three days will be required to repair the break and trains are being detoured.
