BILL SENT TO RALEIGH,
Bill Empowering Aldermen to Estab-
lish A. and NJ. School Will Go Be-
fore Legislature This Week.

City Attorney William J. Bellanly
has prepared the bill empowering the
city OF Wilmington t establish an
Agricultural and Mechanical school and
sent he same to, Raleigh last night
The bill provides that the city shall
appropriate not more than $1,000 per
year to the schools nor less than 81, 900.
It was the original intention to appro-
pirate only 81, 600 for the school but
upon investigation it was found that
s., 900 would not be sufficient to main
tain the school. Mr.. Hugh MacRae
offered to give $4,000, payable in ten
annual installments. provided the city
would donate 50. 900. which amount. with
the help the city expected TO get FROM
the county, they thought would be suffi-
lcient. And it would, but the county
commissioners do not think the couaty
Is able to appropriate any money for
such a purpose.
The Abdomen are yer anxious to have
the school established for they realiz,
what a benefit it would be to this sec
ton of the state.

New York Spot Cotton Made an Adj
of % Points YESTERDAY.

Cotton reached the highest figure
yesterday 1t has attained since last
fall. New York spot made an ad-
vance Of Is points over the day pre-
|vious, going to 3.15. Once before
this month the price of the Aeecy
staple went to 7.9O but it quickly fell
into the regions of the Z cent mar
again.
1t has been said all along that
when cotton reached 8 cents that the
merchants and bankers who had
loaned money on cotton would place
all they had on the market, so the re-
lceipts are expected to make an
enormous increase within the next
few days. Cotton at this market was
quoted at $50 yesterday. The farm
iers have been fooled so often by wait
ling for high prices azad then have. to
sell it for a low price and have
lseen the market go very low this sea-
lson sc will not probably run the risk
lof allowing it to drop on them
lagain for at this season Of the year
lthey need the money very badly.

All of the frequenters of the Mayors

book in police headquarters has
not shown an arrest since the first part
at the week. Things are exceedingly
tame now in the vicinity of the city

element to vary the monotony.
Wilmington has rla3c a fine record
since the first of January as an order

There have been times when rs 'onS as

would think that the police we're not do
ing their duty, but they are and nave
been all along and that is what IS max
Ing such an orderly town. TIE bad
and worthless characters nave 1nun0
that if they are disorderly they will get
locked up, and they further realize that
getting locked up is not all, for Mayor
Springer has a say so before they are
