HARTMAN TO THE PRESS.
He Gives Out a Characteristic Affa-
BILE Message.

Arden, N Y, August Boulevard
4. Hartman, urged by weary repre-
sentatives of the press, who have
1amped about his mountain home
since Wednesday last, came cut today
with a statement that he was all
light. Though brief, the statement is
straightforward and explicit
The message was so characteristic
Of Mr.. Harriman's affable attitude to
the newspaper representatives, an at
litude which was marked when he
underwent the strain of lengthy in
terview on the day of his return, that
most of the men who have been here
1uring the scare over his illness re-
turned to New York tonight, relying
on his word. Mr.. Harriman's state
ment is as follows:
s'I am pursuing the course laid out
before I went abroad and advised by
the physicians I intended taking a
would permit. My treatment abroad
reduced my strength and vitality and
weakened my digestion. The most
expert physicians in Munich advised
me to have an examination by sur
geons as a matter of precautlon.
This has been done very carefully by
Drs Brewer and Grille in conjunction
with DR.. Walter James and DR.. Lyle,
and the whole result is that they
find nothing serious, and renew the
advice previously obtained that
should have rest and not gee many
people at one time, and this I am
trying to do.
This covers the whole case, and
later no, if the representatives of the
press desire and there is any purpose
to be accomplished, I will see them
up here; but now I ask that the sur
veillance of the operations of my
home be withdrawn, not SO much or
| account of my family or myself, but
that the coming and going of my
1 friends may not be interfered with
| I appreciate the interest shown in my
welfare by the press and by friends
in all sections and perhaps by some
| others. If there was, or should be
anything serious, I will let the press
know, and as I have never deceived
them, ask that the press now with
draw it's representatives and rel.
upon me-"

Oar COMPOSITION IN QUESTION.

lla assault all along the line Is 60
ing an against the pure food law.
Eqe, since Secretary Wilson and
President Roosevelt conspired to
override Dr. Wiley in the matter of
benzoate of soda, strong interests
have been assiduously at work to put
back into human food poisons that
DR.. Wiley had driven out.
TIE boric acid crowd have gone
into court to restrain by Injunction
DIR. Wi1ey's pure food commission
from interfering with their use of
boric acid. BY the favor of Secre-
tary Wilson the beef trust is now
permitted to use boric acid in pre-
serving meats, and the entire boric
acid brigade do not, therefore, see
why they should be ordered to use
no boric acid while the beef trust is
permitted to use this poison freely.
A suit has been begun by concern
that desires to preserve canned eggs
in boric acid, and this suit in the
Federal courts will have, 1t is said,
all the support that skilfd1 state
ments and unlimited money can give
it,
In like direction the manufac-
turers of baking powders are con-
tending that baking powders are not
flood" within the scope of the pure
food law, although people eat the
powders. The point at issue is the
use of alum and aluminium salts in
pickles and by baking powder man
ufacturers.
All these attempts to refill the food
of the people with poisons are due
to that unfortunate Remsen board,
which declared that benzoate of soda
is good enough when used in COM
mercial quantities. Al these poisons
scraps and refuse of canning houses.
These scraps, when so preserved, are
sold at low rates to the poor in the
larger cities. The responsibility for
these things rests on the secretaries
of the Departments of the Treasury,
Agriculture and Commerce and La
bor. It would be unfortunate indeed
if the provisions of the pure food law
are broken down just when the peo-
pie are getting confidence in pickles
and canned products. The good work
accomplished by DR.. Wiley may be
| lost even before he returns from Eu-
rope. He fought brave1y for the peo-
pie against millions of capital, and
| the administration can i'll afford to
refill the food of the people with pol
sons even in commercial quantities.

NATIONAL G1NNERs REPORT.
Gives Condition of Cotton Crop on
August "a at 64.1.

Memphis, Tenn, August 30.-The
report of the National Ginners' Asso-
citation, made public this afternoon,
gives the condition of cotton up to
and including August "a, as GAL per
cent.
"This is the lowest condition in a
number of years." the report says,
"and indicates crop of about 10,50O,-
900 bales. An early frost would re-
duce these figures somewhat, and a
late frost would probably increase the
total yield to 100000 bales
The report of averages by states as
follows:
Alabama, 64; Arkansas, SO; Flori-
da, 76; Georgia, IA; Louisiana, 54;
Mississippi, 62; Missouri, so; North
Carolina, rs; Oklahoma, So; South
Carolina, rs; Missouri, rs; Texas, 81
General average, CAL
This indicates crop of about g.
100000 bales for Texas. Ginners re-
port that they ginned 1,656.785 bales
last year in Texas and they estimate
they will gin 776,119 bales this year
with average weather.

IL UlU Virginia
Republicans Are Hopeful
And Active In GuberRa- !.
tOnaI Campaign.
Plans Making for Most Strenuous and
Thorough Campaign Seen i'm
Virginia for Many
Years.

Washington, D. c., August 2O.-Rer
publican leaders in Virginia are not
at all willing to concede that the Old
Dominion will go Democratic at the
gubernatorial election in the fall.
They have about completed plans
which will make the campaign one
of the most strenuous that has been
seen in the state in many years.
The Republicans are counting
largely upon the "stay-at-home' DEM
ocratic vote; upon the solid strength
of their own party and upon the fac
tional differences among the Demo-
cratic leaders. The Democrats who
reason or another are legion. Lead
ers of the party admit that there are
at least 10000. In order to clinch
the election of Judge Mann Demo-
cratic candidate for governor, they
hope to arouse these eligible voters.
The Republicans declare that if the
usual number of Democrats remain
away from the polls Kent will surely
be elected governor.
An effort is being made to have
the administration throw every pos
sible bit of influence into the cam
paign, in the shape of patronage, at
time when it will do the most good.
Representative Bascom Slemp, who
declined the Republican nomination
for governor, is in Washington con-
ferring with Postmaster General
Hitchcock regarding the situation in
his state. Virginia, of course, is a
Democratic state, but Mr.. Slemp de-
clares that it can be captured by the
Republicans this year if the party
leaders are careful to take advantage
of every opening.
1t is declared that the bitterness
the Democratic nomination by Judge
Mann and Henry st. George Tucker
has not disappeared and that Mann
will be badly cut at the polls. An
other difficulty in which the Demo
Gratis find themselves is the distribu-
| can they agree and when they do the
/ discovery is made that the man Sc
| lected for the place is active in poll
tics and, under the ruling of Presi-
dent Taft, is ineligible for the place.
| Postmaster-Genera1 Hitchcock has
promised Representative Slemp to as
sist in the campaign and it is not al
| all improbable that one or more mem.
| bers of the Cabinet will make speech
es before the campaign is concluded.

THAT B. B. PERMIT
But in Any Event l,u.d,- :
bero is Not "lIi
It."
Wilmington Fans Contend That There
Is Triple Tie-Meeting of Di-
rectors Probably to Decide
Question Situation.

Wilmington Star.
Wilmington fans are still discuss
ing the why's and wherefores of the
Eastern Carolina baseball pennant
and according to the way they have
it doped out, it will take meeting of
the directors of the Association to de-
eide the contest as between Wilson,
Wilmington and Fayetteville.
According to the official standing as
given out by Secretary r. T. Gowan
of the League and printed in Sun
days paper there have been 269
games won by the several clubs and
only 268 lost. The local fans are
unable to reconcile this difference
and want to know chow come" one
of the teams is credited with a game
that was not lost by any other team.
They are also curious to know ''how
come" that last doubleheader with
Rocky Mount was not played when
both Wilson and Rocky Mount are
shy" one game; in other words, Will
mington, Fayetteville and Raleigh
were required to play the full sched-
ule of 80 games, while Gcldsboro,
Rocky Mount and Wilson have played
only 80. The contention of Will
mington is that in the face of the
resolution offered by Manager Gwalt-
ney and passed at the Goldsboro
meeting, the officials Of the league
had no authority to throw out the
games in which Luyster played and
that they also had no authority to re-
lease Wilson from playing the last
game of the double-header due at
Rocky Mount on Saturday. Having
failed to play this game, Manager
Gwaltney contends that it stands
forfeited to Rocky Mount IN spite of
the telegram from Secretary Gowan
played The reason assigned for not
requiring Wilson to play this post
poned game was that it was tie
game with Rocky Mount in which
Luyster pitched under the name of
| Lloyd on July 25, and this game had
been declared forfeited to Wilson. It
is contended here that without action
by the directors, Secretary Gowan
had no right in face of the Gwaltney
resolution which was passed at the
| Goldsboro meeting to call this game
off. Rocky Mount sets up the claim
| that the team was ready to play this
double-header and have wired Sec
retary Gowan that it will lay claim to
| Wilson's forfeit money for declining
| to complete the series of games. The
standing Of the teams according to
the action of the directors declining
to throw out the Luyster games and
counting the game that should have
been played in Rocky Mount Satur-
day as forfeit to the Railroaders is
as follows:

which had one postponed game
which it was impossible to play off
before the end of the season. This is
understood to be the contention of
Wilmington, Fayetteville a-.l Rocky
Mount as it will be presented at a
meeting of the league to be called at
an early date to finally settle the
pennant question.

SITS IN HIS FACE:
Rev. Sara aad Attorney Mcfver I'm
court Monday.

New Bern Sun.
Mr. W D. McIver appeared before
Justice of the Peace w. K Baxter
this mo1ning to answer to two
CT arges i orst assault on Rev. J. w.
Han by epitting in his face-and
second, fer disturbing a religious
meeting which Rev. Mr.. Ham con-
ducts every Saturday night at the
Bowery Mission. Justice Baxter
found the defendant guilty of an as
sault and imposed fine of $25 and
costs of the proceedings, from which
tie defendant took an appeal. In the
second case, for the disturbing re-
ligfous meeting the Justice found
probable cause and held Mr.. McIver
under a 500 bond for his appear
ance at the next term of Craven coun-
ty court. Bonds were furnished.
The cause of this difficulty was due
attacked Lawyer McIver on several
occasions from the pulpit of the Tab
ernacle Church. On last Saturday
night the minister had just conclud-
ed with his services at the dork on
iddle street when Mr.. McIver walked
up to the preached and "spat" in his
face as a resentment to what the
minister had said of him.
The insult offered by the attor-
ney to the minister was not resented
by Mr.. Ham, so that ended the per-
sonal encounter for the evening. On
account of the prominence of both
men much interest is manifested on
both sides by their friends.
