 Some of the towns included in the itin- erary of Dr. Leighton and his party are making arrangements to have a great day of 1t. Natchez has issued 4OOO invi- tations to farmers and business men in that territory, and expects great crowd. Others are doing all they can to have a good turnout

 The Mississippi Official and Statistical Register for 1908 is out. The act estab- fishing the department of archives and history. passed in February, 1902, provided for the publication by the department tical register of the state these volumes to be prepared under the immediate su- pervision of the director of the depart ment. The first of these registers, work of nearly 700 pages, was issued in 1904 and contained so much valuable informa- ton concerning the state, it's resources, institutions. government, and history, as to receive the warmest commendaton from all who saw it, both at home and elsewhere. Up to that date no such com plete work had ever been sent out by the state of Mississippi
 In the second of these volumes, the Mississippi Official Register for 190S now just issued from the press, we have a work that notably surpasses the first, not only in size--having with its index 1917 pages-but also in historical value.
 There is no doubt that this excellent and exhaustive work will be welcomed by all intelligent Mississippians, as well

ENGINEERS MAKE SURVEYS

Decatur, August 16-(Special.) )-About midnight last night c. L. seitz was run over and instantly killed by switch en- zine in the Louisville and Nashville rail- road shop yards in New Decatur, his body being horribly mutilated and mangled.
 MT. Seitz was a watchman in the shop yards. It is said that just previous to the accident in which he lost his life he was standing between two tracks in the yards watching freight train pass, and that he stepped backwards onto one of these tracks and that the switch engine backed over him. It is said that several men standing near shouted to him, but it seems that he did not hear them, or at least did not understand what they said.
 MT. Seitz leaves wife and three chill dren. His remains were taken to Pike vile, Tenn, his old home, for interment.
 Ethel Jones, the 2-year-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Hiram Jones of South New Decatur, had the misfortune of falling from a high bench on which she was playing yesterday afternoon and broke one of her arms in two places She is suffering intense pain.
 The civil engineers are now in the field making profiles and estimates of the cost of building the pike roads in this county. The engineers in charge estimate that 1t will be necessary to build 140 miles of road. Contracts for 30 miles of the roads will be let on September 1, and Probate Judge William E. Skeggs will advertise for bids on this amount of roads at once. Work will commence just as soon as the bids are accepted and all necessary ar- engagements can be made.
 The county commissioners have just gone over number of the pike roads to be built with Engineer R. E. Boyd, and MT. Boyd will immediately commence the survey.
 These new roads are to be paid for with the money which has already been ob- tained by the sale of county bonds to the amount of s26O,00O

EXPORTS AND IMPORTS
The July Movement of Merchandise Be-
tween This Country and Europe

The New York circular of Henry Clews says:
'Our foreign trade returns for July plainly
showed the effects of trade depression Imports
were the smallest since 1905 and amounted to
only $50. 900, compared with $l24 G00,O0O a
year ago. This was a shrinkage OF $3S 2UO.u .uDO,
or about 80 per cent, due largely TO lessened ar
ufacturing purposes. Exports meanwhile were
the smallest since 1904 and fell to $103 200 900,
against $12S. SOC, 900 in 1907, loss of $50 300-
600, or about 20 per cent. The decline In ex-
trade, however, was not confined TO the United
States, but extended TO Great Britain France.
Germany and other countries showing the world
wide character of the late depression. British
imports amounted 10 $500, 600, 900 in July, a de-
crease of 10 per cent compared with year
ago. while exports were only $165 000. 600, loss

left an excess of exports of $16.S00, 600, COM
pared with So 300. 600 in 1907 and $1,000 900 In
1906. For the seven months covering July the
excess OF exports reached $372, 900 900, against
$1SS, ,0O0, 600 in 1907 and S229, 600. 900 in 1866

The Financier says this week:
The statement of the associated banks of

interesting feature of the exhibit was the less

The decrease in surplus reserve, incident tc

for the purpose of strengthening their reserves
over the present and approaching crop season
and also as the result of bond sales. The
chief feature of the situation is the piling up
of money in New York from all sources despite
the fact that the season for crop money is now
approaching its highest limit Some banks in
the interior report demands them for crop
moving purposes, but these demands have not
as vet been reflected in New York except In a
diITiinution of the food of excess money which
HAS been pouring into this center almost continli
ously during the past seven months. There seems
to be nothing in sight which foreshadows an
early hardening In rates for money. and even the
trust companies which have been loaning their
money freely since they have found 1t impossible
TO obtain 2 per cent interest idle funds in
banks, report for the week an increase of less
than $500. 900 in loans. Some bankers seem to
look forward to the fall season foreshadowins
higher rates for funds. but TO Offset any coming
drain the New York banks the situation al
present appears to be working into condition
which really invites imports of gold from
