and S1,041 reported dairy COWS upon
them. At the same time We had in all
South Carolina only 422 dairy farms
owning 1897 dairy COWS. Of coarse.
there are more now, but the increase
has not been a noteworthy one, and
the showing is a pitiful one.
In 1889 the total value Of all the
dairy products in South Carolina (on
all falms) was $3,232,725, Of which
$2,S90,342 was consumed on farms.
The butter production was only $780,
437 pounds, of which only 1,103,637
pounds were sold; out of the 44,031,-
52S gallons Of milk only 1,lS6,045
gallons were sold; 1851 pounds of
cheese were produced and only 500
pounds sold.
You will thus see that we have prac-
tically no dairy industry unless You
term the raising of milk and butter on
farms for farm consumption an in
dustry, and I certainly do not con-
slider it such. There are not half
dozen real dairies and dairy farms in
the State-I mean modern, up-to-date
establishments. The people know
scarcely anything Of the dairy indus
try as such, and are letting run to
waste what is a fine opportunity to
benefit the country at large, in the
light of the splendid conditions eS-
isting here for the development Of the
industry. Very truly yours,
E. J. Watson,
Commissioner.

Mr.. Richards and the Morgan Bill.

Having published the former re-
port Of the free conference on the
Morgan bill, it is proper to print the
additional explanation from the Co.
lumbia correspondent Of the News and
Courier:
In some way slip got into the re-
port Of the statements regarding the
free conference on the now famous
Morgan BILL Mr.. Sanders stated that
Mr.. !. G. Richards, Jr., who was
member Of the free conference COM
mittee, on the part Of the house, was
not present at the meeting Of the conl-
mittee at the time mention was made
by Mr.. Efrd regarding a license sys-
tenn for Charleston. He went on to
say that Mr.. Richards was not in the
room at the time, but that he was at
tending a meeting Of the committee Of
free conference on the general appro-
priation bill. Mr. Sanders plainly
and unequivocally explained that Mr.
Richards knew nothing whatever
about the talk or the suggested over
lures, and that the whole incident was
opened and closed without knowledge
Of Nh. Richards.
Mr.. Richards plainly stated that he
knew nothing about the. matter and
would never have consented to such
advances had he been present. Mr..
Richards position has always been
plain, and it is altogether out Of the
question for anyone to suggest that
he would have consented to any COM
promise on the lines indicated.

percentage OF cars which It furnished It 0he rail-
road company acted unfairly and without con-

BY reason OF this alleged discrimination. the
plaintiff asserts that Il has been compelled to

especially the Fairmont Coal Company, have been
enabled to earn large profits.
Had the defendant railroad company furnished
the necessary cars the plaintif asserts. i could

TBy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]

Albany, May 4.-Governor Higgins announced
to-day that in disposing Of the thirty-day bills
ne would not give hearings on the disputed
measures has been the custom in previous
years. Instead, he will allow those who wish to
appear in favor OF or In opposition to the
bills before him to hIe briefs. as was done when
the Page-Dowling Recording Mortgage Tax bill
he vetoed was under consideration. This, he be-
Iieves will hasten greatly the disposal Of the
bills.
OF the bills now before the Governor. the new
mortgage tax repeal is by far the most important.
The Legislature passed more bills this session
than in any recent yeaE. and while UP to date
the Governor by his signature has added 353 new
chapters to the laws of the state. he has yet to
consider a large number Of measures.
The charges preferred against Borough Presi-
dent Coler Of Brooklyn were received here to-
day. They ask his removal by the Governor on
the ground that to insure his election he made
bargains with the Brooklyn Democracy, of
which ex-senator Coffey is the leader, and the
German-Amer1can League. promising it is al
legged, that for their support Of him they should
receive jobs at his disposal. Governor Higgins
has not decided what action to take regarding
the charges.

OPPOSITION'S POLICY.
Constitutional Democrats Outline
CAM paign-D Divisions.

ST. Petersburg, May 4-The convention of the
Constitutional Democrats opened this afternoon
at Princess Tenisheff's school to discuss the
partys programme and tactics in Parliament
Besides two hundred members-elect Of Parlia-
ment belonging to the party there were present
as spectators sixty peasant members. 1t was
evident at the outset that the leaders, while
resolutely determined to secure the fruits of
their victory at the polls and force the govern
men to yield a constitution, would try to avoid
an open conflict as long as possible. A minority
favored open rupture at once NJ. NIilukof
spoke in a hopeful tone, believing it possible
that Parliament would accomplish something,
and that the government dared not go too far
in thwarting the wishes of the people
NJ. Kareieff a member-elect from st. Peters
burg called the meeting to order. and Prince
Paul Dolgoroukoff was chosen president amid
rousing cheers. In a brief speech the prince
urged the necessity for serious work. Then. If
the government stupidity attempted to frustrate
the plain will of the people the responsibility
for the consequences would be on its head.
NJ AIukoff editor of the organ Of the Con-
stitutional Democrats. outlined the tactics OF the
party in a general way, saying however, that as
their course depended on the attitude Of the
government. the new Cabinets policy and the
speech from the throne they could not afford to
