Cotton Region Letter.

The following cotton crop letter Is
furnished as information by w. F.
Klumpp G. Co: Weather conditions
continue favorable for the crop and
while there have been complaints OF
too much moisture IN some sections OF
Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas, caus-
ing fields to become grassy, showers
have been a benefit to the crop IN the
Eastern belt, and with the return OF
fair weather within the past few days
farmers have been able to do consider
able field work.
The Boil weevil is causing consider
able apprehension in many sections OF
Texas and it remains to be seen 10
what extent this pest may ravage the
crop.
The crop generally is in good condl-
ton and making rapid and satisfac-
tory growth, blooming and fruitins
we'll, and is at least fifteen days ahead
Of last season, and with favorable
weather, picking will be general II
Southwest Texas latter part Of this
month: and Southern Louisiana and
Mississippi by the middle OF August.
Weather conditions will continue to
govern the course of prices. Any un-
favorable reports would cause a rapid
upward movement as a large crop Is
necessary to replenish stocks.

ENGLAND IS EXCITED
RUSSIAN Bear Now Up Against Truly
Serious Proposition
THE STAlDEST PAPERS STIRRED UP
A Storm of Indignation Among All
Classes at What is Regarded as
Russia's Dire Insult to the British
Flag.

London, BY Cable.-The Associated
Press interviewed many prominent
persons connected and in close touch
with the government relative to the
seizure of British volunteer feet in
the Red See.
AS a result of these inquiries there
is shown to be o remarkably hostile
feeling against Russia, Of a strength
and a bitterness almost without pre-
cedcat since the Crimean war. 'Even
the most coservative who have been
In the service of the government for
many years ard who openly depiore
the haste with which they thought
Great Britain had plunged into the
Traasvaal war, frankly declare for a
policy of reprisal against what Is re-
sardede here as Russia's violation OF
treaties and her piratical attack on
British commerce.
The warlike tone Of such papers as
The Times, The Standard, The Morh-
ing Post and The Daily Telegraph
which, in national crises hitherto, al
most invariably advised caution, has
hae its inevitable effect. There has
been stirred up storm of indigna'
tion among all classes in the United
Kingdom and Of strength with which
the government itself can scarcely
guase.
Those who deplored the outbreak OF
the war between Japan and Russia and
insisted publicly and privately that
Great Britain, crippled financially after
her South African experiences, must
not at all costs, be drawn into the far
Eastern struggle, are now amongst the
most outspoken champions Of a physi-
cal force that will prevent the repeti-
tion of the Malacca incident in the
Rec Sea.
Lord Lansdowne," says the Daily
Telegraph, voicing the views OF the
government, has faced the situation
created by the abuse of the right OF
search in the only manner worthy OF
a British minister compelled to defend
the interests of British cumm9-"e and
the honor Of the flag, and acting with
UNI Lesitating firmness and prompitude
which recall the strongest days Of the
national policy, he has justified the
trust CT the country. While not one
rash word should be said which would
have the effect Of increasing the ten
sion OF anxious and dangerous inter-
val. it would be futile to disguise the
character or to minimize the risks OF
the situation which has arisen. We
hove and believe that solution Of the
difIculty may still be found in the
withdrawal Of the Russian government
from it's false position"

CAROLINA AFFAIRS
Occurrences of Interest In Various
Parts of the State.
Another Sad Killing.

Greenwood. Special.-Thomas J..
Lyon, magistrate for Yeldell township,
in this county, shot and instantly kill
ed his son-in-law, Ed. Stevens, Tues.
day afternoon about 5 o'clock. Stew
ems was shot through the heart and
died instantly. The fatal shot was
fired while the two men were clinched
and scuffiing on the ground. The kill
ing took place in the public road di-
rectly in front Of Stevens house, and
| was the result of the second attack
made on Lyon during the day by Stew
ems.
The first attack was made while the
two men were at fish fry at Brooks
Spring, few miles from their
homes. Lyon asked Stevens to help
clean some fish and Stevens made an
insulting rem ark, so one Of those
present states, and after a reply by
Lyon, struck Lyon over the head with
stick twice. The men were separ-
ated. An effort was made to get Stew
ems to apologize to Lyon, but he re-
fused.
Lyon started home, unarmed, in a
buggy with ]. NJ. Mccain. Some one
insisted on his taking pistol. He
did and put t in the foot of his buggy
When he and Mccain arrived in front
of Stevens's house Stevens and Gary
Dorm met them, also in buggy.
Stevens jumped out and struck Lyon
on the head with the butt end Of his
buggy whip. They then clinched and
in the struggle Lyon shot him. Dorm
then tried to get Lyons pistol, but
failed, Lyon agreeing to give 1t up to
his daughter, Mrs. Stevens.
Lyon drove to Greenwood In com.
pany with T. w. Mcmillan, chief OF
police Of Greenwood, who was visiting
in the neighborhood. He went at
once to the Jail and surrendered vol
unfairly. The shooting seems to be
the elimination Of long and bitter
enmity against Lyon by his son-in-laW
and his son-in-law's father.
Dorm is a magistrate and once de-
cided a case against Stevens, Sr.,
which, it is said, started the bad feel.
ing. When interviewed Lyon said
that he would not talk. He expressed
his great sorrow at what had been
done, but also said that it could not
have been avoided. In speaking OF
Stephens he said: "He married the
choicest Of my family. always treat
ed him as my own son."

wood, of the Southerns surveying de-

business connected with the survey
of the proposed line and there seems
little doubt but that the road will be
built very soon. There has been in
that section Of the Stae a movement
to build an independent line from Sa'
luda by way of Johnston, a distance
of about forty miles, but nothing has
been heard from this recently. and 1t
is supposed that the promoters are
