Lumber Market Improving.

- - r
Although the market is still persaded
with q feeling Of uncertainty owing tc
pendingtaritf legislation at Washington:
The lumber trade outlook has shown some
slight Improvement in South Mississippi
during .the past week, according to re-
potts from the leading manufacturers.
: Prices remain practically unchanged,
but thera have been more inquiries from
prospective buyers, and a .goodly number
of mills have booked fair-sized orders for
delivery TO domestic points.
Purchases of car stock and the heavier
grades have been more numerous than
for any weekly period within the past
two menths, and the purely local de-
mand, orders from towns within, the
State, have increased, owing to the ar
rival of the spring building boom. .
The foreign market is still dull. Elk
ports from Gulfport and P~ascagoula for
the month drawing to a close, will be
much lighter than for the same month
last year, and probably Below the Febru'
airy record.
During the months of January and
February exports from Gulfport amount.
ed to 36,735,O0O feet, valued at $769,91s
Exports for March from the same har
Dor will probably be between 10000 oC
and IS, 0O0, 900 feet.

The house did not take the vote on the
final passage of the bill, but the prohibi-
~tionists insist they will force a vote.
In the event the bill should pass the
house the senate will have to consider 1t
between now and next Saturday, when
the final adjournment of the special SEES
sion takes place by limitation.

NAPLES HoNORs ROOSEVELT
Reception in Bay of Naples Looks
Like Great Carnival.

Naples.-Ex-President Roosevelt spent
several hours in Naples Monday, and dur
ing that time was given many evidences
of his personal popularity with the ltal-
ian people, and of the admiration which
they have for his distinguished services
to his country. The steamer Hamburg,
on which Mr.. Roosevelt was a passen-
ger, coming in soon after noon, was
greeted on her way to the anchorage
with the blowing of whistles, the futter
ing of many flags and the playing OF
bands. Italian warships in the harbor,
steamers of various nationalities, private
yachts and craft of all kinds, dressed in
bunting and signal flags from stem to
stern, added to the picturesqueness OF
the scene, which Mr.. Roosevelt himself
characterized as magnificent.
Great crowds, too, waited for his ap
pearance on the streets, and when he rode
along in an automobile he was greeted
with enthusiasm that astonished him.

NJ ESCAPED FROM GANG
Hold Been Sentenced to Shackles for
Twelve Months.

Athens, Ga.-Kate O'Dwyer, the young
woman who was shackled and chained
and forced to work on the changing,
made her escape here Sunday night.
The woman, who is said to be comely,
had been sentenced to the gang for IL
months for disorderly conduct. The SEN
tence was suspended on condition that
she leave the county and never return.
She returned a month ago, was arrested
and ordered shackled and chained day
and night as the desperate men convicts
were. Her treatment BECAME public
when an attorney asked a writ of habeas
corpus on the ground that no one can
be condemned to infamous punishment
except by a jury. The case attracted so
much attention hat Gov. Smith took it
up and the prison commission issued an
order that no woman prisoner, no matter
what her ~offensc, was ever to be shackled.

Kellogg opens Life and Death Suit
Against Trust.


Against Trust.
st. Louis, Mo.-In the federal govern
ment's. suit against the Standard Oil
Company, charged with being a trust
and operating in restraint of trade,
which was opened in the federal court
here Monday, Nh. Frank B. Kellogg, as
special counsel for the government, de-
.clared in his argument that the tax cor
~poration laws of New Jersey had given
to the Standard Oil Company the foot
hold from which it n grown into a
trust 80 strong that if allowed to con-
tinue its process of monopolization in the
future as it has in the past, it's power
will become so great that no one can tell
what the ultimate result will be. He
defed the Standard Oil to point to a
single instance where it had reduced the
price of oil. -
@If this court gives the STANDARD Oil
Company the power to go ahead in the
future AS it has in the past, there Will

Writ Adams Gratifed.

Hon. Writ Adams, State revenue agent,

F. Johnston of Friars Point, announcing
the result of the first round in the F. L.
Williams litigation and the overruling of
the demurrer to the bill of injunction,
set up by counsel for the defendant. 1t
may be several months before the case
gets before the supreme court, as it is
anticipated that the defendants below
will not rush the matter of appeal in or.
der to get it before the court during the
current term, but once in the supreme
court, the revenue agent feels satisfied of
an affrmance of Chancellor Denton's de-
cree overruling the demurrer. 1t will
mesn something like $4,000 or $4,000
recovered to the State, according to the
figures compiled in the revenue office.

ly impressed with the idea that the prac-

the uplift generally of the people
through more thorough and systematic
care of the rising generation. He believes
that Mississippi was well represented
and hat the representation of the EN-
blowers of the labor which it is sought to
effect and the interests of the crusaders
in behalf of juvenile labor laws was
about equally divided.
