MRS. 4. N. JULIAN IS
 BURNED TO DEATH
l HUSBAND SUDDENLY AWAKENED AND FOUND HER NIGHT CLOTH. ING IN FLAMES TOO LATE TO AID HER.

Jasper December 2O.-(Special.)- )-Mrs. A M. Julian was burned to death at her home here this morning at about o'clock MT. Julian was in the room with his wife at the time of the accident, but was not conscious of the calamity until it was too late to do anything for her.
 Mrs. Julian retired last night as usual, and was up at midnight, her husband being awake at the time. She did not seem to rest well and was up again at o'clock, but her movements did not arouse her husband at the time She was attired in her night clothes. and these must have ignited from an open grate, as when her husband awoke he found her in a mass of flames and the room filled with smoke The mortified hus- band did all in his power to extinguish the flames but 1t was too late, and the unfortunate woman was dead in a few minutes Mrs. Julian had not been in good health for some time. She has lived in Jasper for a number of years, having removed to Jasper from Berry. The remains were taken to Berry this afternoon, where they will be inferred.
 Mrs. Julian leaves a husband and one son, and her little grandson, that she had reared from infancy.

HARD YARN MEN ACTIVE.
Want to Get Rid of Their Products
 Without Loss.

Charlotte, N. C., December 2O-A gen. eral meeting of the hard yarn spinners of the south has been called to be held in Charlotte on January 5, when matters of vital interest to the trade will be con- sidered. A circular letter is being mailed to all the spinners interested today urg- ing their attendance. This course was de- clded upon at a meeting of the advisory board last night when the situation was considered and discussed at length.
 The recent slump in cotton brought about a chaotic condition in the yarn market. and the spinners feel that 1t is necessary for them to be ''up and doing'' if they would avoid something that must be close akin to a trade catastrophe. When the price dropped many mills were loaded up with the raw material. bought at high prices, and the matter that now concerns them is getting rid of their products without loss.

December 20.-The prediction that the fiscal year ending in June, 1905. will see the greatest influx of immigrants into the United States which the country has yet seen, was made today by the commissioner general of immigration, Frank P.

Sargent added that the incoming of for eigners are showing a notable deficiency Tn desirable qualifications for would-be citizens of the country, being inferior morally and physically, while financial ly they are almost paupers.
 MT. Sargent who came here from Mon treal, said that while in Canada, he made an investigation into the increased immi- grafton into the United States from that country. He found, he said, that for eign ticket agents send many of their ccuntryn1en across the Atlantic to Can ada and thence Into the United States Trading on the ignorance of the immi- grants as to the laws of the United States the agents convince them that the best way to get into the United States is first to go to Canada.
 Many of the newcomers find themselves excluded from this country and with out means of returning home
