GOmpers Criticises Decision.

washington, Aug. 27-Samuei
Gompers. president of the American
Federation of Labor, was greatly STIR
red by the decision of Justice Goff.
Mr.. Gompers said: Justice Goff
quotes an unjust decision in support
OF his own. and that is supposed to
be good law. The unions of labor
will live despite injunctions and decis-
ions which evade constitutionally
guaranteed rights and human liberty.
without the unions there is no pos
sibility for protection to the workers
against the tyranny of the absolute
autocratic way Of organized capital"

SUMTER, s. G, WEDNESDAY,, AUGUST 81 1910


terioration has been reported there
but weather conditions over other
parts Of the belt since the first OF
August have been considered much
| more favorable and some reports
have shown considerable improve
ment. The next report of the gov
ernment on condition will be issued
at noon next Friday and owing to
the conflicting nature of recent ad-
vices, opinions as to it's showing vary
largely.
To Bull New Crop.
1t is understood in the trade, how
ever, that the operators who have
gained such prestige on the bull side
Of the market will now turn their at
tention to bulling new crop months
They have issued a circular, outlining
their reasons for expecting higher
prices but that this action on their
part was not unbiased was naturally
suggested as any statement tending
to enhance the value Of the new crop
would make a better market for
winding up the odds and ends Of the
old and for disposing Of the large
supply of spot cotton still supposed
to remain in their hands.
AS a preliminary to the deal which
eliminated in such a sensational ad-
vance today, the bull leaders began
taking up cotton on contracts in
March. BY the end Of March the
price had advanced to the is cent
level. There was period Of ir-
regularity during April and many
traders believed that so much cotton
would be delivered to the bulls on
May contracts that it would break
their hold on the situation.
Government Helped Bears.
At this time proceedings instituted
by the department of justice en-
couraged spectators on the short
side but notwithstanding the fact
that more than 100000 bales were
brought here for delivery in May.
the bulls took everything offered
and by the end of May contracts were
still holding around the 15-cent level,
after having sold at nearly 16 cents
for May in the middle Of the month.
During June not much cotton was
delivered but in July the bulls re-
ceived over 100000 bales. Thus fur
this month It is estimated they have
received between $4,000 and $4,000
bales. This cotton has been shipped
out Of New York almost as fast as it
has been brought here and accord
ing to Official figures today there re-
mains available in the New York
stock only 111.ss0 bales.
Opinion as to whether the bulls
will extend their operations into the
new crop months are conflicting.
Some think that the old crop cam
paign will be carried through Sep
tember at any rate. but as the new
crop season opens on next Thursday
and the new crop cotton Is now
moving rapidly from the Southwest.
the weight Of the new maturing crop
must be figured upon.

For the last three or four months

the crop grown during the summer

To Plant Nuts.

Corvallis, Or, Nov. Benton
County is to have another large fruit
and nut farm. J. F. Moore and
George w. Stubblefeld. formerly of
Bloomington. Ill, have purchased $50
acres of land two miles west of Cor
Wallis. This land will be planted to
fruit and nut trees. The farm is
specially adapted to this kind of in
dustry. the land being rolling. ~he
seeds will be planted this Fall Apple
trees and English walnuts will con-
stitute the permanent orchard and
purnes will be used as filler to be
, removed when the other trees demand
the room. One noticeable feature
connected with the industry will be
the growing of walnut trees from
seed in place of trees.
/, Mr.. Moore is specialist in the
walnut industry and is convinced that
in the transplanting of tree tn
saproot is injured. To overcome this
disturbance of growth, the trees are
to be grown from seed. The seeds
are to be planted where each tree is
to remain and the seedlings left un-
disturbed from seed to maturity.
Mr.. Moore has located here and
Mr. Stubblefeld will arrive shortly. |
Both have large interests in Illinois.
The partnership concern will be known
as BLOOMINGTON Fruit & Nut Com
pany, and represents a large amount
Of capital. Mr.. Stubblefeld was for
years State Senator of Mclean
County. Illinois. and is prominent
both in the political and financial
circles of that state.
The company has options on other
lands and will carry on a general
orchard tract business Of which the
above farm is only the beginning.

Big Gain In Wheat.

brokers are busy counting the sup

Company. of which George Marcy iE
president and moving spirit, in big
wheat operations of the week.
It is the guess that In 48 hours
lines of about 5000 900 bushels of
wheat were bought in at profits rang
ing from to IS cents bushel. Keen
observers Of what has been going on
In the big pit think that Adolph J.
Lichsteru, broker il the RoOkery
building, either has been interested
with the Armour people in the opera
tions or has had out = big line Of short
wheat OF his own.
For weeks conditions have greatly
favored short sellers. There has been
no export demand. no outlet for the
100, 90 900 bushels Of surplus wheat
raised during 1910. Even Canadian
markets, with much cheaper wheat,
have bsen unable to sell wheat abroad.
1t is an outside estimate shat the
big bear combination had 100, 900 900
bushels Of wheat sold short on which
the profit might reach 10 cents
bushel or 81 900 900 in the aggregate.
In addition to the Armour Lichstern
big cleanup in wheat, James A.
Patten, Jim Runkin, Arthur Cutten
and many other big ira iers have
