For the Ledger
The Price Of Cotton.

Cotton futures went down near
ly every day last week, and are
still going lower this week. Bro
kcrs and spectators say it is be-
cause they are beginning to find
out that the farmers are not keep
ing their pledge to reduce the
acreage. On June 3 they will
find out exactly how much the
acreage has been reduced, if any,
and if it is none or but little,
down will so the price to five
cents. And it will stay down.
And it ought
Sensible men have reduced
their acreage. But the trouble is
that all men are not sensible. The
biggest part of them arc not SEN
sible. The fact is, that many
Of them deserve worse name.
They thought others were cut
ting down, and SO they plant the
same as usual or increase. But
the other fellow was doing the
same thing. And all are playing
the fool together. Men who
travel around and see say that
there is more cotton being plantcd
this year than they ever knew be-
fore. All right; let them plant it
and burst.
The whole Southern business
world sympathized with the
farmers in their fight and joined
hands with them, giving time,
money and moral support to them
and now the farmers are refusing
to stick. 1t looks almost like a
betrayal Of ones friends. And
running themselves at the same
time. Well, they deserve it. Men
who do not grasp an opportunity
when it is placed into their hands
do not deserve it. If they prefer
to continue to be slaves to the
rest Of the world, it is their own
lookout 1t is free country and
they can do as they please. Ifa
man prefers yoke around his
neck to being free and indepen
dent its nobody's business. Let
him hitch up and be driven on.
Give up and quit, Mr. Editor.
You have done everything you
could to give aid and encourage
ment to this movement but it was
labor wasted. We did not ap.
preciate it. Look at the guano
used and cotton planted and sec.

Charleston, April I4.-In the
United States circuit court today,
on instructions Of the court,
Rudolph Rabens, Chris Rabens,
James Johnson, Frank Williams
and Robert Stainback, the de-
PENDANTS in the Kingstree postof-
flee robbery case, were found not
guilty.
Jndge Brawley said that the
government had established a
strong suspicion Of the guilt Of
the defendants, but still the facts
had not been proven and the court
was in duty bound to instruct fof
the defendants. Judge Brawley
made it very clear in his charge
that strong suspicion rested on
the defendants, and he assumed
that the jury viewed the case in
the same light but the evidence
did not warrant the case being
given TO the jury. in the opinion
of the court, for Notwithstanding
the hard work Of the district at
torney's office and the postofice
inspectors, and with no intended
reflection upon these Offices,
Judge Brawley ruled in favor OF
the defendants, and a verdict oi
not guilty was accordingly render
ed upon the instructions Of the

on. The hour set for the execution was between 1 and ? o'clock. Soon aft CT o'clock two deputies were dispatch ed to Mrs. Rogers cell to escort her to the death chamber. The deputies found Mrs. Rogers receiving spiritual consola- ton from Father Delaney, her confess or who the day before had administer ed the sacrament of the holy commun- ion to her. Father Delaney did not ac- company the procession to the gallows.
 At 1:06 the death march was begun. Down three flights of stairs from Mrs. Rogers cell in the central section of the prison, the procession wended its way. Through the great guard room and into the west wing, where the gall lows had been erected, down another flight of steps, across a short space of brick floor and the foot of the scaffold was reached. Holding her head high Mrs. Rogers never faltered for an in- stant as her eyes rested on the scaffold.
 Unaided She mounted the steps, step- ped on to the trap and then seated her. self in g. chair on the scafford. A mo- ment later she arose, having declined to make any statement on the gallows.
 Even at this tragic hour, Mrs. Rogers thought of others. Just as the deputies approached to bind her limbs, she re- moved her glasses. and passing them to one of the deputies, she said:
 These are for my sister. ,. Please see that she gets them" .
 A moment later the straps and moose were arranged and, the trap was sprung. The rope was a trifle too long, and the womens toes barely touched the floor beneath. She was beyond suffering, however, her neck having been broken, and she had instantly lost conscious" ness. s5, s.t.. .M E.
 A little more than fourteen minutes later, the physicians pronounced that all signs of life had vanished, and soon after the body,swas cut down and placed in a coffin that had been in waiting beneath the galIows. +

So Says Our Cold Weather Prognosti-
 cator. Henry Jordan.
 According to Newsletter Jordan, this winter is to be an open one. Only two snow storms are in sight. as far as he can see, and neither of those Is due un- til after Christmas. Santa Claus will have to come on wheels unless Mir. Jordan is greatly mistaken, for Christ mas this year will be & green one. There may be little snow, of course, but nothing worthy the name until af- ter the new year sets in. The winter will be rather a mild one, and much less coal will be required than last year. There will also be an early spring.
 Last winter Mr. Jordan created a stir locally by predicting the exact number of snow storms. He also de- tected the coming of spring weeks be- fore other prophets even thought of such thing. Mir. Jordan is strictly a cold weather prognosticator. All summer long he has steadily refused to, comment on the weather, and out side of furnishing inside information to private parties as to the best days for outings, etc, he made no predic- tions during the hot months.
 Since the little furry of snow last week, however, he has kept his weather eye open and the result of his observations is now given to the public -Ansonia Sentinel.

qufred to answer that question"
 MT. Ryan-"Same answer"
 At the order of Senator Armstrong the last two questions were repeated tC MT. Ryan, who again refused to answer saying that he did so lon advice ol counsel"
 Mir. Hughes the masked the following question:
 Did MT. Hartman say to you there would be an investigation by committed of the legislature or that steps would be taken to have an investigation by z committee of the legislature of either house of insurance companies or insur. ance conditions if you did not permi him to share in the ownership"
 MT. Cravath-'The same advice"
 MT. Ryan-tHe did not say that"
 Now did he say that any action or the part of the legislature or any off. cial or officer of the government would be taken in the event that you refused to accede to his request?"
 MT. Cravath--'I advise you not tc answer the question"
 MT. Ryan-''I refuse to answer on the same grounds"
 X" Now, MT. Ryan, think you will be entirely free to asy twhat you said tc MT. Harriman?"
 MT. Ryan-"Well, I tald MT. Harri man I wanted to be free. and did not want any partners in the transaction , ,.ss'Did you tell him why?"
 MT. Ryan-"My principal reason was that I wanted to make this trust deed in my own way"
 T ''Did you tell him that?"
 N MT. Ryan-"I did,
 MT. Cravath-'I advise that you are not required to answer, MT. Ryan,"
 Mr. Ryan-"The same answer, MT Chairman"
 The chairman-"Mr. Ryan, the con- rnittee does not want you to think that it is seeking to be offlcious in the mat ter"
 Mir. Ryan-'T know that.'' .
 The Chairman-'It thinks you per formed great public service and is only seeking to get you to complete that service"
 Mir. Ryan-"I still feel I should not bc required to answer"
 The. chairman-"The committee di- TGClS you GO dASWSF IIl0 question Wllcl is asked in regard to what MT. Harri- man said to you. Do you still refuse?''
 MT. Ryan-'I still refuse on advice of counsel"
 In reply to further questions bearing on this subject MT. Ryan said the re- lations between MT. Hartman and himself were quite strained for several days and that the upshot of several in. tervieWs between the two men was that MT. Ryan told MT. Hartman that he intended to carry out his original plan regardless of what he or anyone else might do. MT. Hartman would have taken any part of the stock which he could have got, said MT. Ryan. The witness again declined to answer when he was asked whether MT. Hartman offered to put any share that he might get into the trus twhich was afterward created by MT. Ryan.
 Neither Mr. Hughes nor the members of the committee insisted any further upon answers on this subject but asked MT. Ryan about other matters. Later in the day, however, Senator Arm strong made an announcement that the committee had determined to transmit a ascertified copy of MT. Ryans testimo- ny to District Attorney Jerome with a request that proceedings be instituted by him to punish Mir. Ryan for refus- ing to answer the questions.
