significance. The present treaties cov- ering the Dardanelles. 1t is pointed out do not provide for their denun- citation. The only regular way to ob- tain their modification or abrogation would be by a congress of the pow CTS signatory to the treaties. similar to that of London in 1871 wh&eh legalized the maintenance by Russia of fleet in the Black Sea.
 The other alternative Is for Russia to simply announce her refusal to be any longer bound by the treaties, in which event the powers would be com pelled to adopt measures which might seem proper. Although egress from the Black Sea might prejudice the position of the Mediterranean powers. it is not believed that any of them except Great Britain would act with the view to continuing what has always con- tended to be an unnatural situation. Great Britain. however, probably would base her action on the theory that the Japanese alliance compelled her to prevent the abrogation of treat les which insure advantage to the ene- my of her ally.
 Tn this connection a despatch to the Move Vremya from London revives the story of the existence of secret claus es in the Japanese British Alliance, OhC OA "hiSh tnc COEIcSpOnuGAL Cle1iInsp binds Great Britain to keep the Black Sea fleet locked upr in roturn for which Japan agrees not to send Japanese ships to European waters. The Novoe Vremya's argument that it is only ne- cessary for Russia to arrange with Turkey in order to liberate the Black Sea fleet is pronounced by the foreign office to be absurd, it being pointed out that if true, Great Britain or any other power could negotiate with Fur key for the ingress of fleets without the consent of other signatories, In- stead of sending the Black Sea fleet to join Admiral Rojestvensky's squad ron. some of the papers urge the im- mediate preparation and despatch of another division of the second Pacific squadron.
 That Great Britain does not consid- CT present agitation serious is shown by the fact that Ambassador Hardinge has not even made unofficial inquiries on the subject

BIG SLUMP IN COTTON
DROP OF S10 BALE HAS CAUSED
 UNEAsINESS.
Montgomery Dealers Believe Condi- tions are Due to Opinion That
 Crop Will Reach Over 12,- 100000 Bales.

Blue faces and dark brown tastes again characterized the condition of Montgomery dealears.
 A sudden drop of nearly $fo bale in a few days is an incident not calcu- lated to make interested ones pleas by one who has not been struck by the bolt A sudden downward shoot of an elevator is the nearest approach to the experience.
 Yesterday cotton was quoted at 2 Is cents and conservative cotton men are afraid there will not be any reaction within the near future.
 What do think caused this slump" asked a local cotton man. Why my opinion is that the country has at last awakened to the fact that this crop will. be fully 12.00O,O00. The country could stand the high prices that have prevailed for some time past as long as the belief was current that the crop would be short. 100000 or even 11,500O00 crop would have steadied the price. It is the unal- terable law of supply and demand. There is not much doubt that this crop will be 12,000.000 bales. and natural ly the price has gone 10 where II is' No. I don't think that the slump Is caused by the manipulations of Wall Street and cotton brokers. I think the shrinkage is natural and my belief is that it will stay low"
 Continuing he said that the country around Montgomery and all over this section of Alabama is In healthier financial condition than has been the case for twenty years The advances he said, are far less than they have been in years while in some cases planters have paid out of debt entirely and are absolutely independent There is still a good deal of cotton left in the fields. but he said that of course there Is no way of telling the amount accurately.
 While this sudden low price has made conidtions gloomy I don't think it has nurt this part of the country. The planters as a rule are in a splen- did financial condition" he added. Most of them have sold lots of cotton at unusually good prices. and there is more money in the country now than in many years. And the prosperity of the planter makes the prosperity of the Montgomery business men

Gilmore called upon many of his re- sources for histrionic exercise. A su- pine repose when the Signor defied the husband was Mr. Gilmore's. feint- ing perturbation when the 'Humming- bird" threatened the exposure of a scandal was neatly turned by the Mummy" And there was equal clev- erness in the dramatic scene where the Mummy" unfolds the impromptu TO- nance that startles the malignant Sig nor with the realism applicable to his wicked career. Those were few scenes where MT. Gilmore grew tense and did not weary.
 John Martin, for two years now the portrayer of Giuseppe. the organ grinder. earned the genuine applause which was accorded him in the first act. his busiest period. His adaptation of the Italian language of just few weeks encounter with the English must rank at the highest. Not less worthy was also Mr. Martins dramatic point where revengeful emotions rise like tempests in his soul and speak the vendetta for Lord Lumley to witness.
 Miss Zelma Wells made good Lady Lumley t~z for a lack of zeal in her machinations. to which the designing Signor is q party.
 Theodore Terry responded well in his associations with MT. Gilmore, and his portrayal of the part of signor D'OrelIi evidences keen understand ing He has excellent stage presence and fulhlls his trust as a factor in the swift action of the play.

 Serious Accident Averted.
 One man was killed in a railroad crash on the P. and A. division of the l.. and N. at Milton the other night, but as the later reports continue to come in in the matter of details. it seems that a providential act interfered and saved the life of half a hundred sleeping negroes. A heavy train crash ed into the end of cars in which half half a hundred negroes slept, and the only reason why hurnan life was not taken was that the train had just passed over a drawbridge and was travelling slowly when the cars were struck. The young man killed was named Alexander, and his body was shipped to Michigan. He was sent down the track with red lantern to flag the freight, which was due. A storm was prevailing at that time and he fell asleep. The red light was be- tween his knees, and consequently out trains engineer. Alexander sat on the track and he was discovered too late for reversing of the engine. His body was badly mangled. The engine was ! damaged.

 The progress of this actor. Mir. Gll- more, has been remarkable. Theatre goers of Montgomery even yet wear in their memories the humble rank of Gill; more as he trudged across the boards in some obscure role. This was but four and five years ago. The eye of the critic Aew to choose any artist. for word architecture of a laudatory nature until he is two-thirds made, saw little stellar future for this single man.
 So last afternoon and evening ad- mirers of Mir.

 A comparison of the work of Jules Murry's choice, MT. Gilmore. with that of John Drew who first undertook the role of Lord Lumby two years ago would not be available on the plan of grades. Comparisons of the two to distinguish them in all their qualities and interpretations of the part are cer- tainly welcome in view of the antithe- sis they would afford. Mir Gilmore Is peculiarly Mir Gilmore as the Mummy and Mir. Drew Is MT. Drew as the same character.

 As Vinol contains in a concentrated form all of the healing and strength creating clements of cod liver oil, actu- ally taken from fresh cods livers, but without oil or grease, 1t has genuine vital principles that enable 1t to heal and tone up the irritated, worn, tired stomach.

He complied with the suggestion, turning over to the clerk among other papers a certificate of deposite for $1.3o0. He said he came from Mississippi with $500 in money. He remembers taking a drink in a sa- loon, and after that all Is blank. If he is a victim of knockout" drops" it is rather remarkable that he did not lose all of his money.

The American Heiress has Made |
 

"England's army of younger sons should be grateful to the American heiresses." says an English writer.
 There was time in the near past when even A moderately good looking girl in London society treated all bach elors but elder sons with ill-concealed contempt For her there was, appar- ently, no choice between the titled or rich and spinisterhood. Since the American heiress-that newly acclima- tized matrimonial hawk-has come to England to stay, the ordinary society girl has become much more reasonable There was a time when the latter would not accept the offer of any man con- nected with finance or trade. however promising his prospects. but now most of our unmarried women will pursue that inferiof game as eagerly as if 1t were coroneted. t

Colonel seIIars Remains.

The remains of Col. L. H. Sellars. whose death at Rialto. Cal. was noted several days ago. arrived this afternoon after five or six days of railroad travel. Mrs. Irving Bush, the daughter who was with her father at the time of his death, came over with the remains.
 The funeral takes place tomorrow. it had been intended that the ceremonies be held today at 3:30 o'clock in the af- ternoon, but on account of a failure in railway connections the obsequies were necessarily postponed. Colonel Sellars was a distinct character. At one time he was the superintendent of the Pen sacola branch of the L. and N. Railroad, and was so attentive to his work that several of his improvements to the modern locomotive are now being used by the largest railroads In the coun- try He was a Confederate soldier, but on account of his mechanical genius, was assigned to the ordnance branch of the army. His funeral will be large ly attended.

fine game of football was played at Palmetto Beach yesterday after noon when the University of Alabama eleven defeated the local team in a score of 10 to 6. The game was wit. messed by large number of Pensaco- Hans and a distinct feature of the game was the playing of a full -blooded Carlisle School Indian. who was in this section of the country. and who was engaged to play. He would go through a rush with remarkable activity and at all times had smile upon his swarthy features. After the game he was feted by the home boys, whom he saved from an inglorious defeat.
