Mr.. E. d. Smith, president Of the
South Carolina Cotton association, and
organizer for the general organization,
has issued a call for a meeting in CO.
lumbia, August 30th. of the county
presidents of the state to get at the con-
census of opinion among them as to
what the minimum price should be set
at by the executive committee. which
meets in Jackson, Miss, September 5th
In a statement issued for publication,
Mr. Smith stresses the Importance OF
the farmers standing together solidly
for the associations price, particularly
during the months of September, Oc-
tober and November, which ere the
months in which the mills and specu-
lators make their greatest efforts to
get hold OF enough cotton to control the
market. Mr.. Smiths statement in full

HuCk'S DEFEAT.

A most interesting feature Of the ex-
ercises in connection with the unveil-
ing of the Sumter monument at State
burg the other day was literary ad-
dress by Hon. H. A. M. Smith OF
Charleston, giving a comprehensive ac-
count Of the life and labors Of General
Sumter. From the address we repro
duce the following reference to the
battle of Brattonsville:
The British had established a mill
tary station at Rocky Mount, In what
Is now Lancaster county. The COM
mandant at this post sent Capt. Chris
tian Huck-the notorious Capt. Huck
to repair among the Tories the con-
sequences of the dispersal Of party
of them shortly before at Fishing
Creek. Huck commanded thirty-hve
dragons Of Tarleton's legion, twenty
mounted infantry Of tine New York
volunteers and about sixty Tory native
militia. He was therefore, in command
of a force of regular British soldiers In
addition to militia. Huck In his prog
ress, destroyed the forge, furnace and
mills at Hills Iron Works, and ad-
vanced, destroying the country and
committing offensive outrages on inof-
fensive inhabitants until on the 12th
of July he had taken post at William
sons plantation, In York county. Here
In the early morning Huck was attack
ed by detachment Of volunteers from
Sumter's camp and, after a short en-
gagement, Huck was killed and his
command entirely dispersed. The Brit
ish lost between thirty and forty killed
and fifty wounded. The Americans
lost one man killed.
The effect Of this success was great.
II has been well characterized as one
of the turning points in the Revolu-
ton. It was the first success gained
over the royal forces since their land
ing for the investment of Charles
Town. It was a success won by an or
ganized force Of Americans over an
enemv composed in part at least OF reg
ular British troops. It's result was to
reinforce Sumter's force by 600 addi-
tional men.
The effect upon the representatives
of the royal cause was equally great.
They had considered the state practi-
cally conquered, and armed resistance
at an end From this pleasant dream
the fight at Williamson's and the death
of Capt. Huck awakened them.
They found themselves faced by an
army-altnough small-in organized
shape and led by commanders VINO
were evidently in earnest and knew
their business.

be effected between the progressive
Yuan Shi Kaa and the conservative
Chang Tu Tung, there appears little
hope of realizing the complete stability
of Peking authority so imperatively
necessary to the integrity Of the en-
pire and the peace of the Far East in
general While a fresh guarantee of
peace has appeared in the form of the
Russian Japanese entente, peace will
be constantly subject to disturbance
until some decided measures are taken
to re-establish order in the Peking pol
itics. This, however, is deemed impos-
sible of accomplishment so long as a
manchu and q mandarin survive.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

Not nearly all Of the otherwise
qualified voters of Yorkville are reg
istered.
- Messrs. ]. ]. Keller & Co., COM
menced laying brick on the Lockmore
mill yesterday.
Mr.. Thomas Caldwell has rattle
snake, which his friends are viewing
with great curiosity.
A negro woman named Nelly jack
son died in the Jail yesterday morning
OF heart failure. She was committed
during the morning at about 10 o'clock
for lunacy, and was very violent. She
died in a few hours. The physicians
say her death was due to heart failure.
There was no inquest.
- Because of the wreck on the
Southern at Gillmore's trestle, near
Chester Monday morning. all Of the
Southern's through passenger trains
over the Charlotte and Columbia di-
vision had to pass by Yorkville. going
over the Carolina and North h-Western
between this place and Chester and
over the Rock Hill division between
here and Rock Hill. The people were
very much interested in the trains and
quite number went to the railroad to
see them go by.
- Tom Meek, colored, came near be-
ing killed last Sunday morning by the
Southern passenger train No. 135,
which passes Yorkville going toward
Blacksburg at ITO. When the train
came along, Meek was sitting on the
.acn asleep, about 500 yards west of
the station. The engineer saw him and
blew the alarm whistle to make him
get up. Meek, however, sat still and
the engineer applied the air brakes;
but was unable to stop in time to keep
from hitting the negro, who was
knocked some distance from the track.
The negro's shoulder was injured and
he was hurt otherwise. The train
men took him aboard and carried him
back to the station. He will recover.
1t is understood that at the time he
was struck, Meek was in a stupefied
condition from either whisky or CO.
caine. The train was in charge of Con-
ductor Graham and Engineer Groce.
There are several people in Yorkville
who say that they have heard this ne
gro threaten at different times that 1t
was his intention to sit down on the
railroad track and let the train run
over him.
