The cotton market yesterday
did no more than hold its own,
but after an advance the day be-
fore of eighteen points, it was
regarded as strong enough.
The cotton world now seems oc-
cupied in making estimates of
the crop, varying all the way
from 10, 200, 900 of Mr.. Newberg-
er Of Grenada, made public Fri
day, to IL. 100000.
The cause of restricted sales
of spots it is reported, is the
firm attitude of the holders who
demand top prices and refuse to
make concessions.
On Dec. 8, the Ginners' re-
port will be issued covering cot
ton ginned to Dec. 1, and on
Dec. 10, the governments esti-
mate of the crop will be an
nounced.

Columbus is to have a new rail-
road. II was incorporated Wed
nesday and it will be strongly
backed to its completion, it is said,
connecting Columbus, on the east
with the main line of the Frisco
and to the south with the Carroll
tonr road, bringing in the trade from
Columbus natural but neglected
territory, rich in products from the
mines and products for the mill.
II is the Columbus, Mississippi
& West Alabama railroad. The
incorporators are j. NJ. Brown, C..
f. Sherrod, of Columbus; Robert
w. Watson, Harrisburg, Pa; A..
+. Silverthorne. st. Louis, and Dr.
j. A. Root, Erie, Pa.
This railroad, it is stated, has no
connection with any former pro-
ject of the kind. 1t is to blaze its
own way unhampered by entan-
E nents of franchise or otherwise.
And it has no identity with any
other corporation. The organi-
zers will be the stockholders and
their known financial ability and
enterprise warrant the belief that
the plans will be fully carrier 0ut.
The charter granted by g.
Noel Wednesday, and framed by
the incOrporators' attorney, Mr..
+. j Belts, is liberal. In brief it
authorizes the road to run from
Winfield, Ala, or some point on
the main line of the Frisco, from
Memphis to Birmingham; TO a
point on what is know as the
Cochrane road, Aliceville, Dancy,
lr some other point.
From Columbus it is 50 miles to
Winfield, and with the extension
to the south, the new road will
cover about 80 miles of territory.
Terminal facilities here, it is ex-
pected, will be provided for in a
short time, as at other points.

AND RAISES ST, 10000

Rev.T. w. Lewis will leave to-
morrow for OkoIona to attend
the North Mississippi Confer
ence, in session there this week,
Bishop Hoss presiding. At this
Conference ministers ale ap-
pointed and reappointed through
out the state. There is said to
be little doubt that Mr.. Lewis
will be reappointed to the First
Methodist church here. No
minister could be more popular
with his congregation and fellow
towns-people and his work for
the church it Is believed can not
be improved upon. During the
past year 132 have been taken
into the church and 81, 700
raised for various purposes.
Mr.. L. M. Lipscomb, presiding
elder, having served the full
limit of time allowed minister
at one assignment, must be
placed in another field. His
hosts of friends here regret that
he cannot be returned.

FOUR NEGRO CROOKS
TAKEN FROM TRAIN
R0BBERIES OF ALL DESCRIPTION IN
ALABAMA LEAD TOARRESTS AS TRAIN
REACHES COLUMBUS


Four prosperous looking. soft
handed negroes, suspected of
picking pockets and other lighter
accomplishments. were taken off
the Mobile & Ohio at 10 o'clock
Friday morning by Chief of Po-
lice Munger and three other Of
ficers and placed in the city Jail
to await information from some
of the towns visited by the John
Robinson shows, in the wake of
which the negroes were pleas
antly travelling.
Reports from many of the
towns east of here lately have
told of burglaries, postofice rob-
berries, and the haul of Chief
Munger Friday helped matters.
Yesterday afternoon Special
Agent McGill answering a tele-,
gram, arrived here and identi-
fled one of the quartette as a
pickpocket he had chased at
Centerville Thursday when the
show was there. This was Felix
Harris, who had in his sock leg
when arrested SIS in currency,
two leather bags in his pockets,
one filled with dollars and halves,
and the other smaller change.
Fifty-two copper cent pieces
point to a postoffice robbery.
Chief Munger thinks, and he
also believes that the other three
negroes are wanted somewhere,
and that Harris is the treasurer
of the outfit. In their, grips. one
an expensive suit case, were two
pistols, and a lot of new clothing.
The Harris negro is being held
pending the arrival of Sheriff
Oakley of Bibb county, Alabama.
The other negroes are Clarence
Davis, Brady Jones, Jake Har-
ris.
Jake Harris says he halls from
Virginia, the rest from Georgia,
but each says he knows the
other but slightly. Each from
his mixed account of himself,
has travelled extensively, and
incidentally, along the route of
the show they were still follow
ing-through the Carolinas,
Georgia and Alabama. They are
from 25 to 80 years old. All
were removed from the caliboose
to the county Jail last night.
A telegram from Conductor
Smith. sent from Reform, noti-
fed Chief Munger Friday that
four negro crooks were aboard
his train, and as it pulled into
Columbus a few minutes after
the receipt of the message, all
hands in the negro coach sud-
denly pointed skyward. Officers
Cummings, Cook and Morton had |
guarded the doors and windows
OF the car, while Chief Munger
entered it, with the above result.
The conductor had gotten the
tip about them from the brake
man. All four had tickets to Ar
tesla, where the Robinson shows
were to perform that day, from
Centerville, Ala, where the show
had been the day before.

GOOD FOOTBALL

| Face to face with twent.
pounds to the man heavier, th'
Franklin Academy football team
held the Aberdeen High Schoo
down to an even score game IL
Aberdeen last Thursday. The
result was 5 to 5. Under thi:
tremendous weight handicap
which counts SO much in a game.
the work of Columbus boys was
nothing short of the finished
article. 1t was a game to make
the Columbus boys, even those
that didn't see it, feel happy all
over.
From the moment the ball was
kicked off by Columbus, through
out the twenty-five minutes of
the first half, the play was held
to the center of the field and all
the weight and pluck of the
Aberdeen eleven, failed to gain
'any headway that endangered
Columbus goal. There was no
score in the first half.
The second half was started
by the kick off of Aberdeen, and
like the first half, the ball was
kept near the center of the
field, until after ten minutes of
play it was recovered by Column
bus AS soon as referee Will
liams called thiG down, McCol-
lough made a forward pass to
Cook, who made touchdown.
Protected by superb interference
Cook had clear dash for the
goal, and he got there beautiful
ly(and without the help of any
Eskimos). He is an excellent
quarterback. Through some tech
nicality Columbus lost its chance
to kick goal. Aberdeen then re-
ceived the ball from the visitors.
After a short time of play, came
one of the features of the game,
when Pope made hair raising
run with the ball. He ran at
least fifty yards for touchdown.
Aberdeen also missed a chance
to kick & eoal. This tied the score.
The few minutes more of play
brought nothing to the advant-
age of either eleven.
Notable among the star per-
formances of the game was the
interference of Hairston, Burris,
Hayslett-but what's the use,
every man on the Columbus team
played cracking good ball, and
it would be an injustice to ignore
the work of single player. Re-
markably good was the defens-
i've work of the Franklin team.
1t was a game to make the
Academy's pride rise several de-
grees, and the enthusiasm and
of Prof, Frierson
contributed no little to the feel
ing which made the boys play
the best ball of their lives.
The following was the lineup:

After the game the Columbus
boys were given a banquet at
the Clopton House and a dance
that night at the same place.
The Aberdeen people have won
the hearts of the Columbus boys
and they have come home think
ing that there is no place like
Aberdeen, except Columbus.

Thus far the second time this case is on its way to the highest court. The appellants are Frank and John Luke, parties to the defense. The suit grew out of claim by the Luke brothers against w J. Rainey who was the owner with Jesse Hoyt Smith, his cousin, of tract of land lying northeast of the city known as Las Palmas. They ob- tained judgment against Rainey and his interest in the land was seized Smith in the meantime began action against Rainey for foreclosure con tending that he had never any real in- terest in the land In the first trial of the case judgment was given against Smith and the case was appealed to the territorial supreme court which af- firmed the lower court. A further ap- peal was taken to the United States supreme court which reversed the Ari- zoua ocurt and sent down mandate ordering judgment for Smith. That was given d few weeks ago. the amount of the judgment being more than s24 GOO and foreclosure was or dered. It Is from that judgment that the present appeal was taken.
