From Thursdays Daily Herald
This is indeed Carmack Day in
Maury county and Maurys illustrious
son has come into his own.
Since early morning the crowds
have been gathering and by the time
the senatorial train arrived frim Nash
vile, at 1850 thousands had gathered
from every civil district in the county
in spite of the fact that the farmers
were behind in their work and the day
was most favorable for farm work.
In addition to this Davidson, Giles,
Marshall, Lawrence and williamson
sent their delegations to do honor to
Tennessee's most noted statesman.
Preparations have been under way
for the past month for Senator Car
mack's reception and that good work
was done was proven by today's
ovation. Early Wednesday the work
of decorating the town began, and this
morning the town was ablaze with
red bunting. The court house, the
Bethel, the Clubs, business houses,
offices, private residences were fes-
TONED with red, while the colors of
the red-haired senator were seen on
thousands of lapels of sturdy voters,
while Maury's fair women gave evil
delce of their loyalty by wearing red
ribbons, red sashes, red badges and
roses. Hundreds CT private and pub
lie vehicles we're tastefully adorned
with red bunting and rcd trimmings.
r-very train arrivinG in Columbia
thu morning brought its crowd of
Carmack admirers. BY horseback
and vehicle they came by every road
entering Columbia. The Institute
and the Military Academy gave Holt
day in honor of the Homecoming of
the man, who has always stood for
the interests of his home, his state
and the Sounth Land BY ten
o'clock all streets in the central por-
ton of town were crowded, while
every available window and porch
along the line of the parade was filled
with fair women. Soon the marshals
with their cavalry escorts began
forming, and there was a geneneral
towards the depot. The
streets leading to the depot were
packed with cavalry, gaily decorated
floats and decorated private and pub
lie vehicles. A thousand or more peo-
pie filled the depot, the grounds and
the streets around, nearly every one
wearing a Carmack badge.
Conspicuous among the waiting
crowd was Master r. S. Mcdaniel !
Moffett, Marshall county's represen- |
tative, who was attired entirely in
red. This young man is a grand son

DOWIE'S BATTLE FOR CONTROL
OF ZION CITY WILL BE OPEN
ED TODAY.

CHICAGO, April 11-Dr. John Alex
ander Dowie and his counsellors will
tomorrow fire the first gun in the bat
tie to regain the $2O,0O0,OOO said to
be involved in the control of Zion
City, when they will file in the courts
bill in Chancery petitioning that the
transfer made between Deacon Gran
ger, Oyerseer Jane Dowie and General
Overseer Voliva, deposing Mr.. Dowie
as the controller and owner of this
vast estate be set aside.
The grounds upon. which the pc
tition will be based will be that Voliva,
Granger and Mrs. Dowie endeavored
to fraudulently and illegally despoil
the former First Apostle" of the
property which he rightfully claims as
his own. The court will also be asked
to issue an injunction commanding
Voliva be prohibited from in any way
handling the estate
These legal steps that are being ia
ken by DR.. Dowie are only prelimin-
airy, however, for Dowie and his en-.

The Parade.

First came the banner bearers or
! horseback, and the banners they car
ried bore he following inscriptions:
"Maury County Welcomes Her Son,
"Maury Welcomes Her Plow Boy
From The County Court to The Uni
ted State Senate" I'VE Prefer g
Statesman To A Funny Man." From
The Pillow Handles To The United
States Senate" "Maury's Representa-
tives In The Senate: Andrew John
SOD, A. o. P. Nicholson, James H
Thomas, Henry Cooper, W. c. Whit
thorne and E. W. Carmack"
"Hurrah, Hurrah For Carmack,
Let Every Patriot yell,
For Taylor Wears The White Feather
And The Red Hair Never Fell"
This last banner, by-the-way was
carried by DR.. E. A. Timmons.
Following the banner bearers came
one of the bands and scores of caval-
ry, then the senatorial carriage, fol
lowed by a dozen or more decorated
carriages in which were seated dis
tinguished visitors and prominent cit
liens. Then came hundreds of caval-
ry, ladies and their escorts and hun
dred or more Confederate veterans on
horse back. These were followed by
scores of private vehicles decorated
in red, by float containing loyal
women, and the float in which the
pretty girls of the Columbia Institute
were seated, another containing pref
ty bevy of younger girls, the second
band wagon and more cavalry.
The line of march was lined by
thousands of enthusiastic friends of
the senator. All along the line the
colors of the day were displayed. All
along the line arose cheer upon cheer
for Carmack The scene touched
every heart and could not but appeal
to the nobler sentiments of every 10y
al Maury countian. That the Senator
was deeply touched by the love and
homage of his own people could be
easily seen. His face was wreathed
in smiles; his hat scarcely touceh his
auburn locks as he bowed from right
to left to those friends who stood
nobly by him in the days when the
way was difficult and the fight was
hard, and who have rallied around him
yet again to repay the faithful dis

implicitly.
The train bearing Senator Carmack
rolled in on time and was greeted by
cheer after cheer, while mill and fac
tory whistles took up the salvas of
Welcome. The senator was one of
the last to leave the train, and the
two bands and scores of friends who
had accompanied him swelled the
crowd on the platform, making the sight
all the more welcome to the home
coming statesman. He acknowledged
the hearty greeting with barred head, !
clasping at the same time the hands |
of friends who pressed in hundreds |
about him. When the Senator had
reached his carriage, where his family |

BRYAN WELCOMED HOME
One Of the Largest Crowds in Lin
coins History.

Lincoln, Neb,, Special.-William J.
Bryan returned to his home and the
"home folks' welcomed him with
every evidence Of approval and sat
isfaction. 1t was a neighborly well
come, planned as such, and carried
out as planned.
It is doubtful whether Lincoln ever
held a larger crowd than that which
came to the city on Wednesday. 1t
was a half-holiday in the city and ev-
cry train from over the State ar
rived loaded down, bringing not only
Nebraskan people, but many from
nearby States.
The city was handsomely decorat-
ed. The n~on-partisan nature of the
reception was emphasized in every
way possible.
Two hours before the time for the
exercises at the capitol grounds, So
600 persons struggled for points Of
vantage around the speakers stand.
Mr.. Bryan was escorted to the stand
by Governor Mickey from his private
speech of welcome, Mayor Brown
said:
"Before Introducing Governor
Mickey who will extend the greetings
of the State, MI. Bryan, I, as mayor,
welcome you home; not as a states
man, not as a Democrat, but as that
dearest to us all, our beloved neigh
tor.:
Governor Mickey spoke of the
awakening Of the public conscience to
civic righteousness, and in this con-
n%ection spoke Of "bogus reformers.'
The crowd seemingly misinterpretins
his thought, INDUCED in some hiss
ing.
AS Governor Mickey concluded and
Mr.. Bryan arose, there was renewd
cheering and handclapping. Mr.. Bry-
an began by saying that in his travels
he had learned that the Arabic Ian
guage contained 900 words meaning
camel, and that since returning to
the United States he had wished that
the American language contained as
many words meaning II thank you.'
He declared the happiest part Of the
long journey was the homecoming,
and then went into a general descrip-
ton Of his travels.
Following Mr.. Bryan's speech, a
reception took place in the capitol.
There was a brilliant display of fire
works on the State house grounds.

Southern Cotton Association
Fixes Minimum Price
CROP SHORTER THAN THOUGHT
After Two Days Deliberation Execu-
tive Committee Adopts Resolutions
Declaring That Crop Has Greatly
D~eterlbrated Since Aug. Is and
Urging All Southern Interests to
Stand For 10-Cent Cotton as a
Permanent Minimum.

Hot Springs, Ark, Specialize
executive committee Of the Southern
Cotton Association late Friday after
noon recommended to it's members
and cotton growers OF the South that
30 cotton be sold during the present
eason at less than 10 cents per
pound. In a resolution adopted by
the committee, it is stated that the
crop is in a state Of deterioration,
and for that reason no estimate Of the
crop was made. The resolution states
however, that the committee is salts
fed that the crop will not be as large
as the current estimate. The placing
Of the minimum price at 10 cents was
in the nature Of a victory for the con
~servative element Of the association.
The resolution adopted by the COM
mittee, which is in the shape Of an
address to the public, follows:
"lnasmuch as we, the cotton grow
ers of the South, know that there has
been great deterioration in the cotton
crop since August Is, and,
"Whereas the consensus Of opinion
Of the members Of this committee is
that the deterioration is still going
on. we deem it unwise to make an
estimate Of the crop at this time. We
are satisfied the crop will not be as
large as the current estimate.
"We therefore suggest and urge
upon all our members and producers
throughout the South not to sell their
cotton at a figure less than the cost
Of production.
eve call unon all Southern in
terests to aid in maintaining for all
time this price AS a minimum. We
urge the necessity Of marketing slow
ly and only on an advancing market,
and Withdrawing all cotton from the
market at every decline.'
The committee took up the charges
against Secretary Richard Cheatham
Of dealing In futures while an officer
Of the association. After a spirited
debate, in which J. A. Brown. Of
North Carolina. led the opposition,
the committee decided to go in exc
cutive session to consider the charges.
Mr.. Brown then left the room in
which the committee were meeting
and announced that he had refused
to sit in executive session on the mat
ter.
Mr.. Brown has maintained through
cut the session that tEey should be
open and not executive.

The evidence presented through
witnesses by District Attorney Bell
at the hearing Of Segal, North and
Cpllingwood disclosed the methods
by which Segal and Nipple wrecked
the trust company.
How Wreckers Worked.
The most damaging testimony was
to the effect that both Nipple and
Seeal had repeatedly overdrawn their
accounts with the knowledge of the
treasurer and assistant treasurer.
These o%verdrafts were carried as
cash accounts. On the day Nipple
died there was an overdraft of $64,-
600 against the president which was
converted by Collingwood into a loan
showing Nipples account to be APP
parently straight. These overdrafts
of Nipple and Segal at times amount
ed to more than 100000. There
was on deposit in the bank approx
mately 100000 and the loans made
TO Segal amounted to $5,309,2OO.
Many Of the securities which have
since been found to be insufficient
were bonds and stocks of the Segal
enterprises and weer approved per
sonally by Hipple.
Although Receiver Earle appears
hopeful of opening the bank at an
early date, many Of the creditors ex-
press som doubts as to his ability to
do so.
Many depositors who placed money
IN the bank on Monday and Tuesday
after the directors knew that it was
lnsolvent were allowed to withdraw
their deposits.
