Liverpool Markets.

Liverpool, Aug. 11.-There was quiet
opening to the speculative wheat mar
ket and values were unchanged to "
lower, being influenced by the lower
American cables yesterday. Following
the opening and during the entire ses-
sion flrmness developed and prices ad-
vanced Ia TO 1% with the principal
strength in December. Support was
the result of active covering on the
part OF shorts due to a good demand
for Manitoba parcels with few sellers.
At midday, the market was strong and
] to 1B higher than yesterday. Corn
was firm at the opening and % high
er followed by further advance OF
". Support was the result of good
demand for plata parcels, continued
drought In Roumania, Russia, and
Bulgaria, the outlook Of which is be-
coming more serious.

The pecan is variety of hickory
(Hickory Pecan of Carya Olivaefor-
mis). The tree grows to heighth OF
from so to 100 feet, and the trunk to
4 in diameter A tree in full bearing
will produce as much as 600 pounds
to the tree. The age of the tree is va
riously stated; some say 100 years,
and some say 600 years.
Within the exception of a few ia
vorable spots in Mexico, the United
States is the only country in which
the pecan grows naturally. 1t is ma
tive of no other country on the globe.
Very little attention was paid to it as
a source of wealth, until quite re-
cenaly, in spite of which it is already
becoming a staple on every market.
Twenty years ago no such thing as
a budded or grated pecan tree in
bearing was known, and now there
are thousands of budded and grated
trees being planted every year.
The effect of budding or grating
the pecan is truly remarkable. From
a tree that takes twelve or fifteen
years to come into bearing, it changes
it to tree that will bear in from three
to five years and we have seen few

A BANQUET OF
TROUBLE FOR
NEGRU LAWYER

JACKSON, Miss, September L.
Elan johnson, the negro lawyer who
seems to have acquired the fa2alty ol
appearing more often before the courts
in the role of defendant thsA IN thai
of counsellor, was acquitted before
Police Justice Allen Thompson this
big pistol, which the prosecution was
fond Of ref ring to as a cannon.
Johnson had been arrested Saturday
by Policeman Davis, and relieved Of
the weapon while his office in the
American theater building was being
searched for whisky. He therefore
made no denial of having the pistol
but claimed a legal right to carry il
on the ground that he had been threat
ened. and that public sentiment here
against him is very strong, to the ex-
tent that his life is momentarily in dan.
ger He was represented in court by
Attorney Lamar Easterling, and sur
prisingly large amount of testimony
was produced as showing both threats
and bitter feeling. Among other
things, letter was produced, shown
to have been found under Johnson's
door. containing some epithets which
it was not denied were appropriately
applied, accompanied by threats that
unless he left Jackson within day Or
two he would be done away with"
and emphasized by a crude picture
not difficllt to identify as that of d
coffin.
Johnson seems to have succeeded in |
making himself more thoroughly de.
spised by all men than any other ne.
gro in Jackson, and this is especially |
true among the members of the bar,
including those of his own race. And
in making this defense he took occa-
sion to get together much evidence Of
this fact, Notwithstanding which hi
persists in remaining here and at.
tempting to practice law.
Disbarment proceedings have beer
pending against him for severa!
months because of alleged unprofes.
sional conduct in connection with the
of some examination ques.
tons which he is alleged to have tam
pered with while three young mer
were standing an examination for ad.
mittance to the bar. H

trees that we're less than one year old
with well-developed nuts on them, and
we have seen many trees at two
years old from graft in bearing. Its
geographical distribution in this coun-
try is large, extending from Iowa to
the Gulf of Mexico, and from the At
lantic to the Pacific coast; but the
nuts reach their greatest perfection
south of latitude "a.
No doubt the budded varieties would
do well as far North as the pecan
trees are found growing wild, but they
would hardly reach the same perfec-
ton as where climate and length of
season are more favorable. The nuts
are worth on our markets from to
20 cents per pound according to size
and quality. These are seedlings; no
budded or grated sorts have yet been
sold, except for the purpose of plant
ing, and bring from so cents to $500
per pound.
Quite an increase has already been
shown in nut culture in the South,
and there is no doubt but that the
South is destined to be a large pro-
Queer, enjoying as it does many CHI
mate advantages over the North.
That the planting of nut trees is a
lucrative and profitab bic business, as
well as safe Investment, there can
be no question.
On account of the erroneous belief
that it takes lifetime for nut tree
TO bear, people have been afraid to |
take hold of the business. When it |
becomes generally known that graft |
ed or budded pecan will come into |
bearing as soon as an apple, or a |
peach, and when it is known that
full sized pecan will bear from 500 to
700 pounds to the tree and that a
japanese chestnut will bear from
three to five bushels, and that Japan
walnut will bear from two bushels to
hree barrels to the tree, according to
he size, the people of the South will
awake to the fact that they have had
| gold mine at their doors and under
heir very noses without knowing it.
The land can be cultivated until
hey come to bearing, then seed down

THAT BAROMETER.

Usually. at this time OF year, and !;
little later, considerable interest
cen:ered in the possibilities and prob
abilities uf storm.
Tropical storms of more o. less
strength are liable to occur in tie
months of August, September and DC
tober, though years may intervene
from one to another.
When the usual sky and air indica-
lions begin to make people suspect
the approach of a storm the most fire.
quent question asked is, "How are the
barometers acting?"
Outside of seafaring men there Il
little knowledge of the scientific in.
strument known as the borometer.
1t is a delicately adjusted instrr.
ment, and in its accurate use requires
considerable calculation on the part
of the observer.
The cid salt, however, who has his
barometer for his nearest companion
cares little about calculations, but by
long familiarity with his instrument
and experience of cloud and skv and
wind, he readily reads of any az.

PROTEST AGAINST
FREIGHT INCREASE
Raise in Tariff on Rugs, Mats
and Mattings Arouses Los
cal Dealers.

Furniture and rug dealers of this
city at a meeting in the Board of Trade
rooms today framed a resolution of pro-
test which will be lodged with the off
cial ella ssiication committee of the rail-
roads against a proposed increase in
freight rates on rugs, mats n mat
tings. The committee Of the railroads
will meet in New York city April 6 and
will then AXE up, it is said. the increased
rates. A committee of the dealers con-
sisting of Charles E. Cannon and John
II. Ruckelshaus, which was appointed
by Stephen Harrison, of the furniture
and carpet dealers section Of the Board
of Trade, who presided, presented the
resolution of protest. This, 1t is ex-
pected, will be signed by every dealer
in this line in the city.
About a dozen dealers were repre-
scented at the meeting. The resolutions
were addressed to d. 0. Ives, chairman
official classification committee, 14l
Liberty street, New York, and were as
follows:

one-balf times first class. when in bales.
and first class when in boxes; or IL the
official classification committee deem it
necessary that a three valuation be estab-
lished."
The merchants of this city desire to
enter a protest against any change In the
present classification which would compel
the boxing Of rugs or mating for ship
ment.
They also wish 10 record a protest
against any increase in the present rate.
for the reason, that the number Of claims
for damages does cot in our judgment,
warrant such an action.

large unnecessary increase in cost to the
consumer. !
We submit that If the cost Of operation Of

for damages are of an excessive character

ment OF such claims should be prepared
and given to the trade.
The trade has actual knowledge on which
they feel justified in making the statement
that the careless use Of hooks on the part
Of employees and a neglect to give proper
care i'll the consignment of merchandise Is
the direct cause of a majority Of the claims
presented.

protest against an Increase In the rate, and
particularly as a protest against a rule to
