Compares Testimony Closely.

Mr.. McGhee has closely compared
the testimony of the witnesses in the
present trial with their previous testi-
mony, and has called attention to all
changes. These changes will probably
be used to strengthen The defense. The
witness Dorm stood firm on his original
testimony, but some witnesses have
wavered or denied their testimony at
the preliminary examination.

BAD CROP REPORTS.

The most distressing cotton crop
reports come from all sections Of Le-
fore C0unty-iH fact the worst we
have ever heard during our fourteen
years residence in Greenwood. The
planters have just recently begun to
realize how excessively short the
crop really is, Mr. J.. r. Prophet.
Of Sidon, was in the city Monday
and stated 70 the editor Of The Com
monwealth that the cotton crop in all
his portion Of the county was less
than 50 per cent. short Of last years
yield. He says that many Of the
green bolIs-about 10 per cent.
have the dry rot that they look to
be sound but when cut into are
perfectly rotten on the inside. Sim
liar reports come from the planters
all over the county, and we are con
fdent the yield Of LRGore county as
a whole will not exceed 80 per cent
as compared with last year. The
outlook is very dIscouraging.
