CURING OF COTTON.

The farmers of the south have a
commendable pride In making the
record each year on first bales OF
cotton. and as rule they are well
paid for their enterprise In this di-
reCtion. for first bales always bring
fancy prices. But the habit of mar
keting first bales invites distinct
loss to the farmer who follows up
the practice of rushing his product
to market as soon as It can be baled,
according to the testimony of grow
ers who have made a study of the
curing OF the cotton product. II
is positively asserted that the lint
continues to grow after the picking
process has been completed. and that
the farmer who properly cures his
cotton makes noticeable gain In
the quantity as well as the quality
of the product he has to sell,
The general habit is TO get the
crop OF to market or TO the ware
house as soon as possible after II Is
picked and ginned, and It is asserted
that this Is wasteful manner In
which TO treat the crop, because the
lint undcrgoes positive develop

MRS. LAURA CARTER WILL MAKE
CLAIM TO AMOUNT.
FOR THE FUGITIVE TELLER
Reward Was Specified as $4,000 and
Ten Per Cent Of the Stolen Money
Recovered, Which Will Make
Total Of S7,44i.

New York. Sept. 9.-It is practi.
cally certain that Laura Carter will
now take steps to obtain the reward
which was offered for the apprehen.
sion OF Chester Runyan. The reward
which was offered was $4,000 and 10
per cent OF the amount of the stolen
money recovered. When Runyan's
suit case was taken to the police sta
ton 1t was found to contain s5i.ilO.
so that the reward will amount to
s7.441.
Now that the woman has been ac.
quilted of any completely in the crime
II is hard to SEQ how she can be re-
fused the reward II was she who
gave Runyan over to the authorities
when they had absolutely no idea OF
his whereabouts. and he was after.
ward easily convicted on his own
pleading.
The verdict means, for one thing
that there is $4,000. about one-third
OF the original loot, which is entirely
unaccounted for. Runyan's story ac.
counted for all but $4,000 OF the
banks money. but with Runyan's
testimony practically declared untrue
by the jury 1t means that some one
got safely away with a good part OF
the cash with which the paying teller
walked out OF the Windsor Trust com
pany. There are plenty of opportuni
ties to hide s25. 900 in New York with
out fear OF discovery. but whoever
has done the trick has done 1t unu
sually well.
Except for the mysterious disap
pearance, the Windsor Trust com
pany robbery is over. The Carter wo
man says that she will leave New
York and go to Baltimore with hei
sister. Runyan will soon come up for
sentence before Judge Whitman. He
hopes for clemency.

WALL STREETS wogFUL wILgs

In recent editorial the Chatta.
nooga News voices an opinion often
put forward by those who think in
ul,raconseryatism lies safety and
that all reforms are dangerous.
1t points out that tho south is a
railroad builder and largely depend.
ent on the house OF Morgan. There
was recently a baseless rumor to
the effect that Mr.. J. Pierpont Nor.
gan had threatened TO throw th- rail.
roads into the hands OF receivers.
Uncle Sam, that Is T. r.. little
while ago was really threatening to
do what sir Morgan never even con.
templated in the remotest vision OF
his minds eye.
The News declares that one word
from Mr.. Morgan might precipltate

this BE- so. with all respect TO that

is probably worth more to us than

to build more railroads, and We will
build them II let alone; and In this
work the house Of Morgan q Co, is
very valuable. Practically all OF the
railroads OF the south depend on
Morgan for money TO make large
improvements. and yet We occasion.

Where is the sense In such a policy?
Instead Of hurting insulting epithets
