Crops Doing We'll.

James Islard, June 21 The con-
tinued dry weather has worked the
salvation of a considerable part of
the cotton crop by enabling farmers
to destroy the grass developed by
continued rains in May. The crop
is DOW in fair condition and fruiting
we'll. There are more blossoms than
at the same date last season, but
rain is now needed to give life to
the plant. There is considerable
complaint of blight or wilt, as known
by the agricultural department
There is scarcely@ doubt but that
this disease would destroy the sea
island crop, were it not for the i'm
mune seed, now 90 generally used,
and which was first discovered and
developed by Capt. E. L. Rivers, of
this island. Crops of colored farm
ers are in much better condition
than usual.

Fraud in Pensions.
Columbia Evening Record,

Columbia Evening Record,
AS result of fraudulent pension
claims filed in Colleton county, pros
ecutions are now pending and one of
the biggest sensations OF the year is
promised when the truth is known.
From the facts made public by the
chairman of the county pension board
it seems that in 1891 some claims for
pensions for widows were fled be-
fore the State Pension board. The
applications had been passed upon
by the county board and tbereupon
the State board accepted them. It
has been discovered that all Of the
claims are fraudulent and that the
afidavits filed as a result are per-
jury.
Comptroller General Jones said
that these claims had been regularly
paid since they we're passed upon by
the State and county boards Of 1901,
and letter received states that the
investigation has just started and
promises to uncover some sensational
testimony. The parties concerned in
the fraud will be brought before the
courts by the grand jury and instruc
tions have been issued to push the
investigation through. :;

Cuba Diarrhoea.

u. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what this
disease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than so much
water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost severe
and dangerous as a mild attack Of chole-
"a. There is one remedy, however,
that can always be depended upon as
will be seen by the following certificate
of Miss Minnie Jacobs of Houston,
Texas; II hereby certify that Chamber
lain's Cholic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy cured my husband Of severe
attack Of Cuban diarrhoea, which he
brought home from Cuba. We had sev-
eral doctors but they did him no good.
One bottle Of this remedy cured him as
our neighbors will testify. I thank God

Government Officials
Helped Get Rich Quick Scheme In
Post Office.


! Post Office.
Chicago, June 22.-Attorney Cor.
don A. Ramsey, who is representing
Attorney General Stead in the pro.
caedipgs against the Continental
Financing company, the latest alleg'
ed get-rich quick scheme to come
into collision with the law, will call
at once upon the unnamed legal
counsel for the institution, who cad.
justed" it's troubles in Washington,
to learn how the post Office officials
were persuaded to withhold action.
Little more than a month ago In
spector Stuart sent strongly word
ed recommendation to Washington,
urging that fraud order be issued
against the concern, debarring it
from the mails.
Instead of that summary action
the department caused the financing
promoters to change the style of
their literature somewhat. They
then returned to Chicago, notified
their agents in writing that their
difficulties at Washington were at an
end and they would soon be in an
>invulnerable position. They then
proceeded to resume operations
until complaints from investors caus-
ed the attorney general to close
down upon the company with re-
ceivership proceedings.
Discovery of these letters to the
agents, letter from the general
manager to the promoter of another
similar concern, urging him to 60 to
Washington and"get right to avoid
trouble, and a communication from
the lawyer who handled the trans
action jntimating that it was of a
character he would not care to carry
on his books, have caused inquiry to
turn on the question what methods
were employed at Washington to
''get right"
It is said that at least $4,000 per-
sons invested in the concern, and
that over million dollars has been
lost. Henry Wulf, ex-State Treas.
urer, who has been president of the
company, tried to get some of his
letters from the receiver today, but
Mr.. Ramsay decided to hold them.
It was stated last evening that the
case of the Continental Financing
company had not yet reached Post
master General Cortelyou, although
it has been before the assistant at-
torney general, assigned to the de-
partment for the consideration of
such legal cases. Mr. Cortelyou,
however, has requested that state
ment of the case be made up at once
and presented to bin for considera-
ton. He will 60 carefully into the
matter and ascertain what, if any,
foundation there is for the suspicion
entertained in Chicago.
The department is compelled by
numerous considerations to proceed
cautiously against persons and co.,
porations alleged to be doing an
Illegal business through the mails.
Often important law questions are
involved, of which an inspector can
have no I'D. quste knowledge. Thus,
it some times happens, as was ex-
planned by prominent official last
evening, that fraud orders are not
ISSUED where they are recommended
by inspectors. It some times hap
pens, also, that the wording of lit
erature is changed, at the instance
OF department officials, 40 as to
