NO RESPECT FOR AMERICA.

The MOOrs Regard This Country as OF
little Importance.
Washington. June 6.-The following
Department today from Consul Cum
mere. dated Tangier, June 8:
The feast passed without disturb
ance. Situation unchanged. Await
ing reply from court"
The mail report from the Consul Gen.
eral relative to the Perdicaris casa
reached the State Department today. 1t
was dated May 20. The report spoke
bitterly of the situation. and said that
there is no doubt that the Kidnapping
of Perdicaris. although he has been a
public benefactor, was most popular
with the Moors. who openly declared
that this first incident will be followed
by others of the kind.
The whole country, the report said,
appeared to be seething with discomfort
and the Government is we'll nigh pow
erless. The Consul-General regarded II
as of the utmost Importance that a
warship be sent. The American stand .
ing in Morocco, he said, has not been
one of Importance, and the Moors have
little or no regard for the United States
or of its representatives, considering
them as OF little Importance.
Mr.. Gummere's report showed thar
he was much impressed with the gra =
ity OF the situation, and expressed a
that II was only by an eN :
tremely delicate negotiation that very
serious consequences would be averted.

MR.. 0'HARA ACCEPTS
WILL PREACH AT CLAYTON STREET

sidering the Call for Some Time
Finally Announces His
Decision.

Rev. ]. w. O'Hara, pastor of the
Wylam Baptist Church yesterday ac-
cepted the call to the Clayton Street
Baptist Church of Montgomery and will
take up the duties of his new charge as
soon as he can consistently leave his
present church in Wylam.
Mr.. O'Hara, at the urgent request of
the congregation of the Claytan Street
Baptist Church came to Montgo .aery
Saturday and delivered two sermons
to the congregation at the morning and
evening services Sunday. His sermons
were received with marked interest and
attention and he was further urged to
accept the rendered pulpit. He said
at the time that he wished further time
in which to consider the matter and
promised his answer to the call within
three or four days. His field in
Wylam, he said. he considered Just as
broad as the Montgomery field for work
and wanted to be careful in making
his determination to accept or decline
the call. Yesterday, however, he an
nounced that he had decided to accept
the call and the news of his acceptance
was received with much joy by the con-
gregation of the Clayton Street Church.
The church has been without a pastor
for several weeks. Mr.. O'Hara is a
young man. He is married and II is
expected that he will come to Mont
gomery soon.

The local administration organ

rious screed on the political effect OF
the reported increased acreage of cot
tor and the prospect OF a record-break-
ing crop:
The effect of cotton production on
the coming campaign is a subject that
has proved interesting to politicians
since the statement of the Department
of Agriculture was issued last Satur-
day. The consensus OF opinion on the
part of both Republicans and Demo-
cotton yield of the coming year con-
Germs the political world, 1t will tend
to the advantage Of the Republican
candidates In that 1t indicates condi-
lions that will make for added pros

The cotton report of tthe Depart

of the area planted in cotton of 2, $780,
00G acres compared with last year. This
brings the area planted in cotton up to
over 1.000,0 900 acres. which breaks the
record in the history of the industry. x,

supply being depleted all over the
world with a shortage of cotton goods,
produces a condition. in the opinion OF
cotton experts, that will prevent the
, lowering of the price beyond a profit
able margin for the producers and
making the value of the total yield
about as great as was the value OF the
crop in the present year.
The political significance OF the
prospective increase in the volume OK
the crop and the lowering of the price
| lies in the fact that especially In
Rhode Island and New Jersey. where
many cotton mills have been closed on
account OF the high price and the short
crop. there Will be resumption OF
business and thousands of idle men and
women will go back to work. This
result, II is expected. will be realized
next fall. so that it will have an ef-
feet in these States during the cam
paign.
Every one acknowledges that con-
tinuanee of prosperous conditions will
vastly help the Republican ticket.
MASSACHUSETTS mills have also been
aTected by the condition of the cotton
market. but in that State the closing
OF mills has largely been avoided. But
Rhode Island and New Jersey, which
arc regarded as lighting ground for the
Democrats, will feel the effect of the
changed condition in a very material
wav.
The profitable crop will also have a.
reflex effect on New England and the
Middle States by the increase of trade
resulting from the large purchasing
power of the South and business men

the elements that make for prosperity.

On May IL. Mr. Murray was elected

Bishop Thomas Underwood Dudley.
His election occurred at a meeting of

Mr. Murray accepted the call to the
Baltimore church a year ago from last

going to Baltimore he was elected
bishop of, the diocese of Mississippi,
but after mature consideration declin-
ed that high honor.
Thus since leaving Birmingham, Mr..
