SENSATIONAL
PISTOL DUEL
AT MOUNT PLEASANT. NEAR
NASHVILLE
PROMINENT MEN ENGAGED
Trivial Matter Causes Fatal Tragedy
Participants Prominent Young Men
of the County-One Fatally IN
jured and a Bystander is Hit

Nashville, Tenn, Oct IA sen
sational pistol duel took place at Mt.
Pleasant, small town near this city
this morning The principals in the
fatal tragedy were Ebert Cotton and
Alex Calvert, two prominent citizens
OF the county Cotton was shot twice
one bullet going through the abdo-
men and the other through his right
side. After Cotton was shot down
he wounded Calvert in the right
shoulder A man by the name Of Joe
Lee, who was with Calvert, received
ball in the calf of his leg.
1t seems that the cause Of the
shooting was due to fight earlier in
the day between Calvert and a man
named Freeman, in which Cotton at
tempted to separate them to which
Calvert eook exceptions, and when
they met this afternoon he duel was
the result. Cotton is twenty-one
years Of age and Calvert twenty-five.

prepared the ground for a saner view,
and one may hope that hereafter val
ues will adjust themselves with more
regard TO the real conditions.
The fact that, stands out as the
most hopeful is that the recent furry
was not based upon any essential I'm
soundness IN general business condi-
tlons. Hence, the notion of general
panic is considered absurd. Earning
of the various corporations whose Sc
curities have fallen continue not mere
~ unimpaired but show increases
The railroads are at loss to cope
with increasing business. The indus
trials are paying increased dividends,
With some notable exception, but not
such as greatly TO affect the general
situation. The extent to which im
proper manipulation has been dis
credited is a hopeful circumstance.
The attempt to discount future earn
ings, based upon false promises, has
led 20 distrust which IS well found
ed. The distrust OF other securities,
where there has been no manipula-
tion, may be expected to pass away
speedily

CUT OUT COTTON
GAMBLING

The suggestion made i'll the con-
ference of cotton spinners and cot
ton planters by Chairman NIAGARA, to
the effect that the cotton industry
should be rid of the outside nlalipu-
lators OF prices-in other words, the
gamblers-seems to have struck
home. The convention has delegat-
ed authority to its committee on per-
manent organization to evolve the
plan by which the gamblers will be
QUOT out without injuring the bushes
OF the necessary middle man.
1t seems to have been particularly
the object OF both Chairman NIAGARA
and of the convention that this mid
die man, that is, the man OF firm who
gathers the cotton from the planter
and affords a market thereby from
which the spinner may order for
either immediate of future delivery.
should not be interfered with while
the gambler is being disconne cted
from his we'll worn seat in the cotton
exchanges. President NIAGARA spe-
fically mentioned the importance OF
the middle man in his relation TO
both planter and spinner, and the
convention made it clear in its final
action on the subject that the mid
die mans interests were the same as
those of the main factors of the cot
ton industry.
h Chairman NIAGARA expressed his
opinion la the following language j

THE PUBLIC
TO BLAME

The public Is to blame for high
prices and not the monopolists, says
President f, Benjamin Andrews. Of
the University of Nebraska, and in
this We agree with the able sage,
The public is to blame Monopo-
lies have no more use for useless
thh1gs than consumers have, They
do not take a penny that the public
does not pay 1t,
Monopoly can not sell unless pco-
pR will Bury. and whom they add
cents 10 the cost of their products
and we the people pay it, then we
approve OF their acts.
1t is true the people have to live,
but fhey could live on much less to
day than they do, and by their econ
omy force the trusts down ou their
prices.

To great extent what the Presi-

cessfully carried ON except by work
ing on the broadest lines, and with
due regard to the legitimate interests
of all who are engaged IN the indus
try, whether growers of the raw ma
terial, the legitimate middle men who
are responsible for the distribution OF
that raw material, the spinners, the
manufacturers, or of any other in
terests that are dependent upoa
them. All these are entitled to 4
fair remuneration for their labor and
enterprise, and everything that in
terferes with the smooth working
OF an industry that concerns the vel
fare OF millions OF people ought to
be energetically dealt with by unit
ed action and removed Those !
have just enumerated are necessary
factors in the conduct OF this great
industry; but there are, unfortunate
~, people who are rot engaged il
any Of these departments who are
using the raw material OF the world
industry as a counter for gambling
operations
Taking up the suggestion of this
prominent factor in the world :
greatest single industry, the repre-
sentatives OF the five great organi-
cations in the conference adopted
the rcsolution locking to the clinlin-
alton OF gambling in futures, yet the
action was accompanied by the cx-
press declarations that no plan would
prove satisfactory TO the cotton in
rerests unless it shall enable the le-
gitimate buyers to provide against
heavy losses through future fluctua-
tons in the market price.
The discussions OF the extremely
important subject by the able re
representatives. OF the various cotton
interests Of the world has been
watched with deep concern, OF course
by the large number of citizens OF
this section whose business is that
of the middle man, or legitimate cot
ton buyer. and upon whose activities
the works. cotton consumers depend
Tor their market. That the confer
ence decided upon a plan of action
which promises to eliminate the cot
ton gambler without disrupting the
only means by which these middle
men may practically insure them
selves against the fuctuation of flu
ture prices Will. therefore, be OF ex-
traordinary satisfaction to this class
OF business men.
Ii would seem that such influential
factors as those who met here and
discussed the situation to the fullest
extent will enable TO accomplish
their object in regard to the cotton
gamblers, and in this movement none
viii join with more willing hands
than the Southern cotton buyers and
their allies.-Atlanta Journal.
