New Orleans, November B.-(Special.) )- T may be just little ahead of the times in the south, but l am convinced that the San Carlo Opera company will more than make expenses during Its eleven weeks stay in New Orleans.

Russell has brought here with which to open the social season on No- vomber %. After last seasons French the conclusion that a very radical change in the annual opera programme must be made or the institution would soon die from lack of patronage, and with this idea in view subscription fund greatly in eX- cess of that of any previous season was raised, and a contract was entered into with Mir. Russell who, with a grand opera company second to none in the world believed that with New Orleans ass a starting point he could soon establish himself in the United States through merit alone.

This grading to be done when cotton is offered to a warrant warehouse for storage. If a buyer desires to remark or re-class he can do so, but 1t must be without destroy ing the official stamp.

 Late Saturday
 Night.

As a result of desperate rencounter with shotguns at Sayre mines Saturday night two white men, Oscar Linn and Doc Mann, and negro, Sam Stephens lie at the point of death in local hospitals suffering from abdominal wounds.
 The two white men seem to have been quarreling for several days, it being ai- legged that Mann, who is said to be a deputy, threatened to arrest Linn, but the charge which he had against him is no. known. Linn stated that he would resist under all circumstances.
 It appears that at about Il o'clock Saturday night Linn was sitting on a barrel in his alleged hop jack stand talking to several loungers, when the deputy went in and asked that he step outside to have a short conversation. Ex- pectlng trouble, on the excuse of getting his tobacco. the storekeeper is said to have secured gun and followed out of the door.

Two Shots Rang Out,

No sooner had they left the building when two shots rang out and the men within the store rushed outside to find both of their friends lying on the ground with shotguns lying nearby. Cries from d small grocery store about fifty feet dis tant also attracted their attention, and on investigation 1t was found that the negro Stephens, was perhaps fatally wounded by a stray bullet. He was standing in front of his store, not suspect ing any trouble, when the bullet struck him in the abdomen.
 Deputies from the sheriff's office are Investigating the tragedy and while the preceding version as told by some of them present, is accepted by some, 1t is believed that possibly there was general mixup in which a number of others had a part.
 Large crowds soon gathered around the injured men. Their wives and mothers were called to the scene, and the wounds were temporarily dressed by the com pany's doctor

Mason to St. Vincents, and Mann to the Hillman, with Dr. Dawson In charge. During the morning oper- ations were performed, but after twelve hours no change for the better had been noted. All of the wounds were in tho abdomen, much of the lead becoming lodged in the intestines. Twenty-six bull lets were taken from the b-ly of Mann alone.
 Linn is man of about 25 years and has wife, whom he married only last June. He was employed as boss of a number of workmen in the mines during the day and kept his store open until a late hour at night. Both men are we'll known in the district, especially among the miners, and expressions of smpathy are extended the members of both families in their grief.
