THE EIGHT HOUR BILL.
D. A. Tompkins Speaks in Regard to
Child Labor in the S outh.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, March 29.-In discussion
of the confusion which opponents of the
eight hour bill declared would follow the
enactment of that measure into law, Fred
erick W. Job, Secretary of the Employers
Union of Chicago, today said to the Sen
ate Committee on Education and Labor
that he did not believe the albor leaders
of the country represented the real views
of the rank and file of the workingmen,
organized or unorganized. Mr.. oh called
attention to labor troubles where non-Un-
ion men had been beaten down with clubs
or shot, and said that the official organs
of organized labor never had contained
one word of denunciation of these crimes.
Daniel A. Tompkins, of North Caro-
lima, was questioned in regard to child la
Dor in the South and answered that the
manufacturing interests of the South were
now recovering from the labor rcstric-
tions. caused by the slavery system. Slav-
cry was form of restriction, he said.

have no doubt that every cent OF every
loan will be repaid when due. AS these
annual installments are repaid they will
be lent to other counties and other coun-
ties entitled to loans The Loan Fund is
doing even more than was promised or
hoped for it by the most enthusiastic sup
porters Of the bill in the last General
Assembly.
There is still available about s96, 900 90
Of this fund. There will probably be
number of applications during the spring
and summer from many of the thirty-six
counties that have not yet applied for any
loans. These counties will of course be
given the preference in future loans.
The State Board of Education has exer-
cieed great care and will continue to ex-
erclse great care in making these loans,
requiring all districts to conform strict
ly to the law and the rules and regula-
tions adopted.
It is impossible to estimate the great
benefit that will be derived from a wise
use of this permanent Loan Fund through
the next decade.

many members of the House. 1t is stated
in opposition to the plan that even if the
district should be abolished Judge Swayne

Up A LITTLE BIT
Futures Made the AID.
vance While Spot Cot
ton Held Its Own.

The cotton market yesterday was in q
healthier condition as far as advances in
futures was concerned.
The spot market showed no advance in
New York, the figures being II cents for
middlng uplands On the Raleigh mar
ket there were no sales except some cot
ton in bad condition, but middling here
was estimated as being worth 1875 from
the wagon.
These figures show a slight advance on
the Raleigh market, and the buyers yes
terday talked as if they were willing to
buy. Two bales only were sold here and
these sold for but 10 cents a pound. The
cotton was tinged, badly stained and in
poor condition. A year ago one bale was
sold here the price paid being 9A cents a
pound.

fears that this has weakened other firms
The market leaves dealers guessing as to
the true condition. The spot market has
led futures for some days and it was only
yesterday that one month-July-got
past IA cents. The indications are that
any advance is apt to be a very gradual
one while no slump or fall-off to any
extent is 10 De anticipated. unleSS uneX-
pectedly cotton should be thrown in big
lots on the market, which is not to be
expected.
The next thing to anticipate is the
Government Ginners' Report. This is. to
be issued at neon next Friday, and if
the figures are for a small crop. or mate
rally behind those of last year. an adj
vance. in the market for both futures
and spots is not unreasonable to expect.
The estimate Of the value of various
grades Of cotton by Raleigh dealers yes
terday was as follows:
Strict good middling 1879; good mid
ding, 1875; strict middling, 131a mid
ding, 1875; stains and tinges, II to IS
