merly done during the day and
night. This explanation is made
because an increase of spindles
usually indicates larger business
and greater prosperity. In point
of fact, the Italian spinners have
been doing only very moderate
business.
"In consequence OF the high
prices which have been ruling
in the. United States considerable
cotton has been shipped from
Europe to New York and New
Orleans since July 1st. Ship
ments have been made from
Liverpool, Havre, Bremen, Tries
te, and perhaps from other ports.
About 5000 bales are now on
the way from Bremen. In pre-
vious years some cotton has been
sent from Europe to the United
States, but never to anything
like the extent of the shipments
of this year. These shipments
emphasize the artifciality of the
prices which have been ruling in
the United States for several
months as a result Of speculative
manipulation in New Orleans
and New York. The price of
American cotton for many weeks
has borne no relation to the
price Of cotton yarns and goods.
La this connection | will men
ton that European spinners have
used great deal OF Indian cot
ton in place of American cotton,
and In some instances at a saving
OF fully a cent pound for simi-
lar grades of cotton.
The high prices for American
cotton will stimulate the produc
ton OF cotton in every part OF
world where it can be grown to
advantage, and will surely in
.duce more careful cultivation and
preparation for the Indian crop.
The world needs a good. sized
yield Of American cotton from
the crop now growing, but a
large crop now (Which is Equite
possible), if followed by another
large crop, would probably cause
a decline to unremunerative
prices"

GORDON'S TRIBUTE TO JACK.

| count OF tne DattIe OF SharpS-
burg in the June number of
Scribner's Magazine is the fol-
lowing tribute to Gen
oral Thomas Jonathan "Stone-
wall') Jackson
But to return to the considera-
ton of Gen. Jackson's character.
Every right. minded citizen, as
well as every knIghtly soldier,
whatever the color of his uni
form, will appreciate the beauty
of the tribute paid by Gen. Lee
to Gen. jackson, when he re-
ceived the latter's message an

"that his loss is small compared
to mine; for while he loses his
left arm, lose the right arm of
my army" No prouder or juster
tribute was ever paid by a great
commander to soldier under
him.
But more important than eny-
thing | have yet said of Jackson
may be compassed, | think, in
the observation that he added to
marvellous genius for war a
character as man and christian
which was absolutely without
blemish. His child-like trust
and faith, the simplicity, the sim
cerity, and constancy of his un-
ostentatious piety did not come
with the war, nor was it changed
by the trials and dangers OF war.
If the war affected him at all in
this particular, it only intensified
his religious devotion, because of
the tremendous responsibilities
which it imposed but long be
fore, his religious thought and
word and example were leading
to the higher life young men en-.
trusted TO his care, at the Vir
ginia Military Institute. In the
army nothing deferred or divert
ed him from the discharge Of his
religious duties, nor deprived him
of the solace resulting from his
unaffected trust. a deep-rooted
belief in God, in His Word and
His providence was under him

MR.. STEPHENSON ON Cer-
TON.
Special to Charlotte Observer.

Baltimore, Sept. 3.-Ool. AL
fred B. Shepperson, the we'll
known New York cotton statisti-
clan, who has spent several
weeks in Europe, visiting impor-
tant centers of the cotton trade
in Germany, France and Bel
GUM writes as follows:
''The cotton manufacturers of
the countries named above have
done fairly active business dur
ing the past season, but, taking
them as whole, have made very
little money. Considerably more
s cotton has been spun into yarns
than the previous season, but
often at very small profit, and
sometimes at a loss. The spin
ners who bought freely during
October, November and Decem.
Der, when prices were or the
basis of A. to A pence for mid
ding uplands, have had a re.
munerative season, while those
who bought at prices ranging
from ST pence to nearly 7 pence,
have made no profits, and those
who sold their product ahead on
the basis of lower-priced cotton
(as many did), have scored seri-
ous losses. AS a result of the
high price of cotton many of the
continental mills have no work
ed on full time since early in
June, but short time has not
!, prevailed to anything like the
same extent as in England, most
of the mills having run five to
five and one hall days in the
week, against four days in many
of the British mills. German
spinners are in far better shape
than a year ago, as the large
stocks of yarns and goods then
existing have been disposed Of,
aud the depression resulting from
such a condition has been re
moved. While their stocks of
cotton are quite moderate. |
think .ey are larger than at this
time last year. Many of the
French spinners bought cotton
freely IN the early part of the
season, and have done well.
Those who bought sparingly in
the hope of still lower prices
have paid the penalty for their
conservatism. Some of the
French spinners have cotton suf-
ficient for their requirements to
the middle Of October, while
others have practically no stock
and are buying, as it were, from
'hand to mouth My impression
is that the stock of cotton held
by the French spinners is less
than a year ago. In Belgium
much the same conditions exist
as in France, but | think the
spinners hold about as much cot
ton as at this time last year. The
French spinners have, on the
average, done better than those
# Germany and Belgium. The
spindle capacity of the three
countries differs but little from
last year. In Italy there has
been an increase OF about l,2O0,,
900 sDindles. but there will be q

FINDS BALANCE OF GANG.
Accused Are Under Care of the Turn
kew

Shawnee, o. T., june 2-The News
says the arrest of Peyton InEess the
other night for stealing horses at Violet
Springs, has unearthed the balance of
the gang engeged with him in stealing
horses through this part of the terri
tory. 1t was thought that Inness was IN
a position to divulge some valuable in
formation regarding the men operating
in stolen horse flesh. and after he was ia
ken tin the sweating process was gone
through with and While at first he re-
fused to give up any information regard
ing his pals, he was finally trapped into
letting the "cat out OF the bag" and the
names of his accomplices at the same
time.
The two parties who have been stand
ing in with Innes were run down and ia
ken in Friday and are now under the
fostering care of the turnkey at Tecum-
sch Jail where they have been given
quarters until the grand jury can hear
the evidence that will be given before IT,
of their operations in live stock belong
ing to other people and for which they
have been handling without the permis-
sion of the owners thereof The evidence
is said to have been regarded by the off,
cials as almost conclusive against them
and a conviction is almost a certainty.

DURING AN ALTERATION.
Iowa Indian infIicts Wound on His
Chief.

Ripley, 0. T., June 22-Last Saturday
during an altercation between Robert
Reaubodieux, an Iowa Indian, and Dan
iel Tohee, the chief of the Iowa tribe,
on the latter's allotment, about seven
miles southwest of Ripley, Reaubodieux
inflicted an ugly wound with garden hoe
On Chief Tohee's head and face, from
the effects of VIII ich he died Wednesday
morning.
1t is impossible ii learn the facts from
the Indians, as they are adverse to talk
ing about the affair. Reports say the
trouble was regarding some affairs in the
tribe which has been brewing for some
time over the management of certain
matters. 1t may have been caused as 70
who should look after the crops.
Reaudidieux has been arrested and
will be taken to Chandler.
Dan Tohee was a p opular chief with
his tribe and also had the respects of
the whites in his community. He was
about forty years old.
It is not k nown who will succeed To-
hee. but the Indians all like Frank kamp,
and no doubt at their next conclave he
will be selected as chief of the Iowas,
who now number about eighty Indians.

fee, came in today to attend the meeting
of the territorial Republican committee
and to mingle with the many Republicans
from various parts of Oklahoma who
gathered for this event.
THE people of our part of the terri
tory are for immediate statehood for
Oklahoma said Judge Museller, "and
We are not looking out for the Indian
Territory when We consider the state
hood question. The other day when a
call was issued for county convention
to select delegates to the single state
hood convention at Shawnee, it was
signed by five Democrats. Only Demo-
Gratis are paying any attention to the
statehood talk in connection with the
union of Oklahoma and the Indian Ter
ritory, and this is on account of the agi-
tation of east side Democrats for a sin
gle state. We want immediate statehood
for Oklahoma and believe that we will
soon see the time when we viii get such
