Want Big Damages.

Mobile, Ala.-The American Ba-
mana Company through H. L. Nc
Connell, of Mobile, and associate
members, have asked the state depart
ment TO intervene in their behalf on
account of the Costa Rican govern
ment having interfered with their
planting and other operations in the
erritory now belonging to Panama,
but at one time under the jurisdiction
of Costa Rica and have asked for
damage in the sum of $2,210,000. A
special from Washington states that
Mr.. Mcconnell has placed the case be-
fore the state department which IS
now considerating what right the ad-
ministration has to intervene in the
affair During the past two years
the United States has been on as
friendly terms with the Central and
South American countries as hereto
fore and in case Solicitor Penfield de-
icdes that the government should
stand by Mcconnell, some difficulty
in the settlement may be encountered.

Brood Mares.

The Prison Board Of Control Will
make another departure, which. it Is
believed, will prove profitable. Some
sixty or seventy brood mares are to
be purchased and placed on the two
places, along with a number OF
Jacks, and the State will go exclusive
ly into the mule-raising business.
The mule bill of the State each year
is quite an item, and the members
of the Board believe that they can
raise all the mules needed by the
State to replenish their stock. This
will be quite a saving to the State,
as some forty or fifty mules year
are purchased to replenish those which
are worn out and unfit for work.
Mules can be raised in this State
which are just as good as those raised
in Missouri. The two places selected
for this experiment are ideal. There
is plenty of range for the stock and
Hne water all over the places. 1t is
estimated that mule can be raised
in this State for very little money,
and when grown will represent very
near all profit.

POSTAL PROGRESS LEAGUE
Opens War on the New York Boss on
Ground that Senator Platt Subverts
Interests of the People.

New York.-At the meeting of the
ostal Progress League in Cooper I'm
ion, Chairman Post, of Battle Creek,
Mich, said he had prepared, and will
ask the United States Supreme Court
Tor restraining order to prevent Sen
ator Thomas C. Plat from taking his
seat. He said he would take this
action on the ground that Senator
Platt subverts the Interests of the
people he has sworn to represent in
The interest of a corporation he really
represents. The matter relates to the
parcels postage.
Mr.. Post made his announcement
in the course of a speech, entitled
Our Errand Boy" After having re-
ferred to the postal deficit, and the
eact that the people of the country
oay annually to the railroads $40
100000, Mr.. Post said:
"Senator T. c. Platt, of New York,
IS President of the United States Ex-
press Company. Word was passed
around to other Senator's that no def
lite action should be taken on the Post
Check Money Bill. Senator Platt was
approached by my Representatives to
tnow his attitude on the question, and
le clearly defined the fact that he was
opposed to the measure because it
vas contrary to the interest of the
express companies.
"We met with strong opposition
rom a New York State man in a
position to lay some heavy blocks in
'front.' of the wheels Of progress, Ellis
Il. Roberts, Treasurer of the United
States.
"I have the papers already pre-
,ared, and will ask the Supreme
Court at Washington for a restraining
,rder to prevent Senator Thomas G.
olatt, of New York, from occupying
lis seat in the United States Senate
IN the grounds that he does not fulfill
lis duties.

Efforts to Save M'Cue.

Lynchburg, Va. After consultation
tttorneys for Samuel McCue, who is
o be hanged for the murder of his
wife in Charlottesville, decided to do
nothing further until the return of J.
!. Lee, senior counsel, from hunting
rip to Georgia.
While it is believed that an effort
S to be made to secure a respite for
McCue to give him opportunity to pre-
pare for death, it may be that an
.ffort will be made to have the SUI
,rcme court review the case on sup
elementary petition.
There seems to be no doubt that the
attorneys for McCue will not ask for
,ommutation Of sentence to life I'M
orisonement or for pardon. Their on
y hope is in review of the case by the
appellate court. McCue knows moth
.ng of the action in his ease.

Antitrust Bill Passed.

Little Rock, Ark The Senate by a
vote of % to 2, passed the antitrust
measure known as the King Bill, the
of which was demanded by a
plank in the last Democratic State
platform. It provides prohibitory
penalties upon any corporation trans
acting business in Arkansas which is
a member Of or party to any pool,
trust, agreement or combination wheth
er in this state or elsewhere. The bill
was transmitted to the House, where

Cotton Held at Jackson.

1t was stated in these dispatches
some days ago, on authority of one Of
the warehousemen at Jackson, that
there were 10000 bales Of cotton be-
ing held in this city. 1t is stated now
that there is but half this amount be-
ing held. The manager of the COM
press says that ten thousand bales will
cover all the cotton that is being held
in Jackson at present awaiting better
prices, but each day sees some addi-
ton made to the number of bales
which are being held.

Cashier Skips.

J. H. Mckay, cashier at the Ala
bama & Vicksburg railway freight
office in Jackson is apparently de-
faulter in the sum of three or four
hundred dollars. There is consldera-
BILE mystery about the affair. The
officials of the road say they cannot
understand what impelled the young
man to become defaulter. As far
as they know he had no extravagant
habits. He was not society or
club man, but lived quietly and I'M
obtrusively and apparently he was
we'll within his income. When he
failed to show up for work the other
day it was thought that he was sick,
and not much attention was paid to
the matter; but the next day when
he did not show up an investigation
was made and it was found that he
was not in the city His books were
then examined and the shortage DIS
covered. The railroad will lose moth
ing, as he was bonded in guarantee
company.

Biggest Lumber Contract.

Sears, Roebuck & Co of Chicago,
have just closed contract with a
Mississippi man for perhaps the lars-
est single lumber purchase ever made
in the state. The deal calls for fif-
Teen million feet Of long leaf yellow
pine lumber to be delivered in Chi
cago, and the gentleman who has
secured the contract for furnish
ing this enormous supply Is l. L..
Morris, native Mississippian and
we'll known throughout the state. Mr..
Morris announces that the greater
part of this lumber will be purchased
from mill men in Mississippi, in facet,
it is his intention to give the prefer
ence to dealers in this state where
possible. Mr.. Morris estimated that
it would take 1000 large lumber cars
10 haul this supply of lumber, making
train nearly 20 miles i'll length.

Good Roads Delegates.

Gov. Vardaman has appointed the
five members of the seventy-five
Boards of Supervisors in the State as
delegates to the National Good Roads
Association at Jacksonville, Fla, Jan
uary 10Th. A few years ago Missls-
sippi took a great deal of interest IN
the Good Roads movement, and had a
convention Of her own at Jackson.
The effect of that meeting is still felt
and in several counties is seen In the
betterment of the roads and the sys-
tenn Of working them. Monroe coun-
ty has just let contracts for working
about six hundred miles of roads, and
at prices that are eye-openers to
some of the taxpayers. 1t is hardly
probable, however, that many Mis-
sissippians will attend the Jackson
vile, Fla, Convention, as it is too far
away.

be used in placing an enclosure around
the Confederate monument in the old

New Method Adopted.

The Prison Board of Control has
decided to try intensified farming on
the Rankin and Oakley Farms. The
members of the Board and the Gov
ernor have been looking over the Oak
ley place, and it has been determined
that no more land on this place is to
rented. Hereafter the State will
work it with an idea of getting more
out of it than has been secured by
leasing. 1t is believed that enough
hay can be grown on this place to
supply the Penitentiary with al
most all it needs.

murdered Thomas Fogarty, an en-

Valley railroad at Tutwiler in Febru-
ary last, was hanged at Sumner in
the presence of about 1000 spectators.

with God and was reconciled to his
fate.

much excitment and a mob formed
with the avowed intention Of burn
ing Baldwin. Gov. Vardaman acted
promptly and sent troops to Bates

The six Great Points.

The great points to be noted, in order
to secure promptly a highway system
which will answer. the requirements
for comfortable and economical inter
county and interstate vehicular traffic
are:
First. The greatest possible mileage
of earth roads shall be treated SO az
to render them available for the great
est period OF time during each year.
Second. When old roads are to be
improved by matchmaking extreme
care should be taken in the prepara
ton of the preliminary estimate les
confiding investors waste their money.
or would-be investors be frightened
away.
Third. The preliminary estimate ane
design for an improved road system
should contemplate the expenditure OF
no dollar that is not absolutely neces
sary to the placing on the particular
mile of highway where it is expended
a substantial road Improvement, adapt
ed to subsoil conditions which prevail.
on that mile of road.
Fourth. Good road advocates should
persistently agitate the question OF Ma
tional aid for highway construction.
Fifth. The legislative bodies OF the
various States not as yet cooperating
should be persistently appealed to until
all have agreed to loan the credit Of
those. States, in order to wipe out the
discredit of their present highways.
Sixth. The boards of supervisors in
counties should be urged to supple
ment the work of their States by the
sale of long term bonds, from the pro-
ceeds of which would cone the road
funds.
Do this, and the ermy Of good roads
people. once so small, will swell so as
20 number in its rank all public spirited
Americans, and the day will not be
far distant when the people Of this
land will be as likely to leave their
important roads without smooth water
tight roofs as they will be to live in
houses which are equally unprotected.
