IS IT GOING ON UP2
Cotton Made a Slight
Advance on Spot Mar
ket Yesterday.
"wiIl the advance continue ?"

'Will the advance continued"
That is the question that is being pond
cred over by FOLKS in the cotton world.
For yesterday there was a slight rally
IN the market, and cotton advanced just
little on the spot market.
Only three bales were sold here yester-
lay and these were at prices ranging
rom IS to 1872 cents On the day previ-
JUS the market closed with the cotton
buyers willing to pay only t2A cents a
}ound A year ago ffty-three bales were
sold here at from 914 to 8 7-16 cents q
pound.
There is a demand for cotton from the
Mills and this demand is not being met
Y the receipts. The tone of the market
yesterday was steady, and this was good
ign0on the slight advance. The cotton
armers who have cotton are holding 1t
light. and are not selling at the present
lrices. Among cotton men it is said that
he demand for cotton is better, with little
TO be had.
The future market was feverish during
he day but closed with an advance OF
rom 25 to so points, the bulls coming in
It the close of the day, though during the
,arly part Of it there had been a see-saw
process.
TIE government ginners report after
full investigation, is not considered by
.he Gotten world as bearish as was at first
thought To men who desire cotton to
advance the outlook is brighter than it
has been for many days

HANDS TIED STILL
Judge Purnell Orders
Another Hearing.
Order Restraining Corporation Com
mission Continued Until That
Time.--!t Will be About
so Days.

In Federal Court yesterday Judge Pur-
nell, after hearing the last of the argu-
ments in the injunction suit Of the South
ern Railway against the Corporation Com
mission, made the following order:
And now after full argument by cour-
sci it is ordered by the court that the
motion of complainant to continue the
restraining order to the hearing be al
lowed and this mater be referred to the
standing master under the rules IN
equity.
"A proposition having been made pend.
Ing the argument to regard this as q
final hearing, said proposition being
pending, it is ordered that if consented 10
by all counsel in writing and accompan
led by a statement OF facts agreed with
in ten days. there being some controvcr-
sy as to the facts, which the court can
not determine from the facts now before,
it, the court will consider this PROPOSE
ton
This means that the hands of the Cor
poration Commission are tied for about
ninety days more, during which they
cannot sue the Southern Railway for that
five hundred dollar day penalty for fail
ing to obey the order of the Commits
sion in the Greensboro Ice and Coal Com
pany complaint.
The standing master is Judge James e.
Shepherd. He will now take testimony
from both patries to the suit, for the pur-
pose Of determining the correct facts in
the case. This is made necessary by the
fact that during the argument before
Judge Purn2ll yesterday and the day be-
fore it developed that there was some dis
pute as to some of the facts. and Judge
Purnelps court being a court of equity
cannot hear testimony as to facts, but can
only pass on questions of law.
The rules OF equity practice allow each
side thirty days for the taking of testi-
nony Then ten days are allowed for
testimony in re5uttal and hen more time
still before the hearing. So, altogether,
it will be some ninety days before the
next hearing before Judge Purnell.
Judge Shepherd will submit all the evil
dence to Judge Purnell, who will then at
ter the hearing pass upon the validity Of
the order of the Commission and all the
facts in the case in the light of the evil
dence
1t is not deemed at all likely that coun-
sci for the Corporation Commission, At
torney General Gilmer and Messrs. Bat
tie and Mordecai, will agree to the prop
csition submitted by General Counsel
Henderson, of the Southern Railway, to
regard the hearing just concluded as a
final hearing.
OF course Judge Purnell will not rule
upon the question of the constitutional
ity of the act creating the Corporation
Commission, as that mater is outside the
jurisdiction of his court.
The argument before Judge Purnell
was continued yesterday morning at half
past nine o'clock Attorney General R.
d. Gilmer pTesened the case of the Cor
poration Commission in a long and eX-
haustive speech, covering every phase
and detail Of the case. Col w. A. Hen
derson of Washington, General Counsel
of thu Southern Railway, followed Gen
eral Gilmer and concluded the argument
for the railroad.

Letter TO A. Williams & Co.

Raleigh, y. G.
Dear Sir: "Tlr-e-quarter paint" is a
good phrase for the best outside Of Devoe.
Devce is the standard; 1r.@rk it 700. The
next best--there arc several not far apart
are thrce-quarter paints; gov may mark
them IS to Devoc' s 100.
The bulk Of the paints in market are 40
or 90 or SO; 4 f-w are better thar 60; a
few arc worse than 30.
How co they act? They cover from
one to thrcc-guarters Is much IS pevnc;
and they last from enc to threc-quartors
as long a. DcT@e.
What arc t6cy worth? The came rule
don't hold; it costs more to put-on some
paints than they are worth; they arc not
worth anything; the "put-on" costs two
Or three times as much as the pant.

men of Virginia and North Carolina are
just now quite busy preparing for the
opening of the oyster season In the wa
tiers of these states on September 1. Last
year there was a great scarcity OF oysters
In these parts. and as a result the supply
sent to western and northern markets
was far below that of previous years and
prices were high. This year the prospects
are for a large supply of oysters and the
quality promises to be good, with fairly
low prices. The oyster pirates of former
days are being wiped out by the efficient
service Of the Virginia and Maryland oys-
ter navies. working Jointly. and II now
looks as though the natural oyster rocks
In the waters OF these two states will be
preserved for supply for many years to

fin to fin four feet eight inches. Its weight
was 1913 pounds
Mr. Tyler out in a row boat accom-
panied by Thomas Southland of Alexandria,
when he went to draw up the trap net.
The net seemed to be unusually heavy and
he fastened one end to the boat and pulled
up the other end. when he discovered the
shark. After getting the net high enough
out of the water Mr.. Tyler took a cable
from the boat and fastened it about the
man-eating fish. He was assisted in this
task by his compan MON in the boat
The shark was then towed ashore where
1T died within half an hour after 1t was
captured.
Mr.. Tyler said the shark did not make
much of a fight when being captured. but
just before he put the cable around 1t, sew
eral catfish swan along in it's front and
the shark swallowed two of them and snap
ped one in half as clean as any one could
have cut it In half with a sharp knife. The
shark had evidently been In the net sew
