COTTON CRAZE HAS AFFECTED
WHOLESALE TRADE HERE.
Merchants Report Collections Slow on Account
of Rural Speculation

While the present high price of cot
ton has undoubtedly benefited produc-
ers throughout the state, the constant
fiuctuation of the market has seriously
effected business in all other lines, ac-
cording to the opinions advanced by
wholesalers and retailers of this city.
They report that while they are able
to sell almost as many goods as in
former years, they are experiencing
great difficulty in making collections.
A Morning News reporter interview
ed several representative wholesalers
and found that their opinion was the
same on this subject.
1--WE are doing a good post-holiday
business said a we'll known whole
sale grocer, but we find 1t very diff
ficult to get the money for the goods
we sell. Customers who have always
paid their bills promptly are now ask
ing for time. and Of course we have
to grant their request. In some in
stances Arms in the interior who have
bought largely are now either curtail-
ing their purchases or not buying at

of affairs on the hypothesis that our
country cousins have caught the pres
ent cotton fever, and have been using
all their available cash in specializing
in futures. Or else" he continued,
some of the farmers are holding back
their cotton for still higher prices, and
not paying their bills. This in itself
would have a tendency to make col
lections very slow with the country mer-
chant who has given credit to the cot
ton grower in the expectation of real
izing at the end of the cotton season,
as has been the case in years gone by.
I'm my opinion" he said, "a great
quantity of cotton has not been report
ed, and is at the present time stored
away like stocks and bonds in the in

mo one will know just how much
cotton has been thus hidden away I'M
til the market assumes definite shape
and settles down to it's original nor

The banks and mercantile agencies
corroborate the opinion advanced by
the city merchants. and many Of the
former report that they have never
known conditions to be so slow, or

ELECTIONS IN CUBA.

Havana, Jan. 9.-The first primaries
preparatory to the election of half the
members Of Congress and of provincial
councillors were held and were
lightly attended.
The day passed quietly everywhere,
except in Cienfuegos, where the ex-
preston of partisan feeling developed
a disturbance during which several
shots were fired and one or more per-
sons wounded.
The disturbance was caused by a
party of Radicals, who were on horse
back and armed with machetes, and
who were led by one Cantacho, who
is under bond for having wounded a
policeman. CamaCho fiourished a re-
volver, which he fired when ordered
to give it up. The police and others
attacked Camacho's party and several
shots were fired. 1t is reported THAT
Camacho has been wounded, but he
has not been captured.

GEN. LONGSTREET.
from the Norfolk Landmark.

From the Norfolk Landmark.
1t is reported from Savannah that
the Daughters of the Confederacy in
that city refused to send a wreath of
laurel to be placed on the grave of the
late Gen. James Longstreet. The
pretty custom was ignored by the
Savannah Daughters in this instance
on the ground that Gen. Longstreet
disobeyed the orders of his superior
at Gettysburg.
From our point Of view, this was
an untimely exhibition of bitterness.
The late warrior always denied with
Vehemence the charge that he dis
obeyed any order received at Gettys-
burg, and while many are convinced
that he was at least dilatory at a criti-
cal time, it must not be forgotten that
the matter is by no means settled, that
Gen. Lee voluntarily assumed full
blame for any errors that may have
been committed at Gettysburg, and
that Longstreet did an immense
amount of effective fighting for the
Confederacy and was highly praised
by his famous chief.
The Savannah Daughters Of the
Confederacy could have sent that
laurel wreath without being open to
the slightest criticism. 1t is far bet
ter to err on the side of generosity in
a case of this kind than to he too
dnicky.

From the Jacksonville (F1a.) Metropo

Il TOHI the JdCkSOnVlllo Trial. MSlTOpO-
lis.
I read with much regret the item in
your issue of yesterday to the effect
that the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy in Savannah had declined to
send a wreath to decorate the bier of
the late Lieut.. Gen. Longstreet. my
old commander. These ladies seem to
have forgotten the old proverb. "De
morris nil nisi bonum.' Fortunately,
however, the reputation of the general
as commander of the First Corps of
the army of Northern Virginia stands
high in the hearts of those who follow
ed him on many a hard fought field.
1t is a we'll known fact to all of our
corps that Longstreet's command Oft
en- held the entire Federal forces in
check while Gen. jackson (the below
ed "StonewalPO was making his flank
movements. OF the generals post bel
lum record 1t seems to me he was
only in advance of his time in ac-
cepting federal office so soon after the
war; but since then Gems. McLaws,
F'itzhugh Lee and Joe Wheeler have
all served the United States govern
ment. 1t is also to be remembered that
Gen. Longstreet at the close of the
war had lost his profession (having al
ways been a soldier), on account of his
being in the Confederate army, and
he was obliged to accept Federal Of
flee. I have no wreath to send my
dear old commander. and can only Of
fer this very poor tribute to his glo-
rious military record. "Requiescat in
pace" Very respectfully,

See no Reason Why Cotton Should
Suffer From Threatened War.
New York, Jan. 9.-Cables were
again higher to-day, and this was a
good sign. The war news from the
Far East was better, and although
there is no reason why cotton should
suffer from an outbreak, weak specu-
lators are hanging back and fear to
enter the market before the uncer-
tainty is removed. The larger specu-
lator is quite satisfied with the gen.
eral situation. Mills are gradually
failing into line and buying cotton and
advancing the prices of their prod
ucts. The short interest is very large
everywhere.
While it is true that cotton Is be-
ing held for Is cents and over, 1t is
equally true that there has been large
short selling ever since cotton touched
II cents, and anything higher was out
of the question, and the same selling
policy has been followed ever since up
market to an enormous extent.
The market opened 10 to IA points
up. Sellers were very cautious. Liv-
erpool bought some cotton here Hous-
ton estimates for tomorrow were L. 300
to $500 bales, against $500 last year.
Local prices the first half hour rose
as much as 20 points. largely because
of indications of a moderate movement
next week.
Port receipts were estimated at 30
600, against 5000 last year. Interrupt
ton to wire service interfered with

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Jan. 9.-The cotton mar
ket opened to-day with moderate ac-
tivity at an advance of 10 to - points.
The volume of business was small, but
the market was strong, at one time
showing a net advance of 26 to 81
points, the opening prices being the
lowest of the session. The principal
basis of to-day's upward movement
was the assumption at home, and
abroad that the Russo-Japanese sit
uation would end peacefully.

to have confessed to the murder of
John Blevins, former city treasurer of

der of Alexander Mcknight near here
on April IS, 1902, and to many other
crimes. Kruger's confessions have
been made to Sheriff John H. Trescher,

the extreme
