RUSHTON SPEAKS FOR
 MALLORY AT EUFAULA
Voters Have Apparently Made Up Their Minds How They VIII Vote-The
 Crops Are Not Badly Hurt

Eufaula, April 29.-(Special.) )-Ray Rush. ton spoke at the courthouse here today in the interest of H. s. D. Mallory for governor and was greeted by fair audi enee. MT. Rushton grew eloquent at times in his appeals on behalf of MT. Mallory, but he failed to arouse any great enthusiasm. Conservative citizens are of the opinion that he came too late to change very many in their views, as 1t is plainly evident from expressions of those most interested that the minds of the masses have long since been made up as to how they would vote and no amount of persuasion could change them at this late hour. MT. Rushton left here for Clayton.
 After an absence of % years W. W Bostwiek of Marshall, Tex, is visiting his former home in this city. MT. Bostwick is an old war veterans and is returning to his home by way of this city from Mobile, where he has been in attendance upon the reunion. He moved here with his fathers family during 1852 and re- sided in and around this city until 1880 He enlisted with the Eufaula battery and served throughout the war.
 It is believed that a good portion of the field crops in this section have with stood the recent freeze better than was at first expected. Much of the cotton in the lowlands is badly injured, while the uplands 1t is thought will come out al, right. The fruit crop was pretty well protected by the heavy foliage and willie much will drop off a fair yield will rc><-n which 1t is hoped will maintain a better growth. A strange feature Is that while vegetation in one row would be nearly all killed, the corresponding row will show but little effect. In some sections, where scarcity of seed Is reported, the destruction of the entire field crops would have proved disas- trous in the extreme.

Announcement Surprised Battle

W. ". Battle, United States revenue collector, was in the city Friday, and he said in reply to a question that he was surprised by the announcement from Washington that two additional revenue men would be sent to this county for the purpose of destroying the illicit distilling business in the An niston district. MT. Battle says that he knows of only one illicit still in three miles of the 1eounty lines, but that he will be glad. to have the new officers come to protect the home dis trict, as he has Gll he can attend to in other sections. He destroyed a 40- gallon still near Edwardsville Thurs day and secured the name of the oper- ator for an arresting officer. It is Ne lieved that the new men will be given commissions to cooperate with the county and city officers in destroying the blind tiger business.

"Guides, Giving Trouble

Consternation has spread over the po- litcal circles of the state by the dis covery that marked tickets to be used in the primary of next Monday have been distributed and that the probable result will be to greatly confuse the voters. So far as can be learned ali of the tickets thus marked have the name of Col. Elm. met O'Neal for governor; Judge C.. c. Nesmith for chief justice.
 Other marked names on the ticket vary, some times it being one man and some times another. The idea seems to be to get the name of a popular man in his home section on the ticket distributed in that section. Just who is responsible for the distribution is not made plain. The guide" sent along states that the men designated are in line with the antl- amendment fight, and are entitled to the support of the men on the anti side of the prohibition amendment contest of last November
 It is charged by those who are stirred up by the distribution that the result will be to secure other than an expression of the will of the voter If he should get one of these tickets and undertake to vote for his choice without elimination of the name already marked the vote would be void. It is also argued that a great many will vote the ticket un- consciously, thus giving support, possi- ply, to one not intended. Under the act the voter may use ballot of his own choice.
 Mallory leaders are sending out notice in every direction to watch out for the marked ballots and to insist at every polling place that only the official ballot be used An effort will be made, 1t is reported, to have w. D. Nesbitt, chair man of the state democratic committee, take some action to put the ban of disapproyal upon the marked tickets. Mallory men are out in local strongly condemning the course taken and charg-

Due to the fact that numerous per sons in the business and residence sec tions of the city have been found to have not been enumerated by the cen sus takers, 1t is said that Supervisor George ". Persons will likely take cognizance of the appeals of the An niston chamber of commerce and grant an extension of time in order that the census may be made thorough. Prom inent negroes of the city have united with the chamber of commerce in go- ing over the city and a particularly large number of negroes have been missed, it is shown.

 Corporations Reported

Montgomery, April 29.-(Speciai)- Charged with implication in jewelry frauds, the particulars of which the pub lie now knows by heart, seven members of the Shreve family, some of whom were owners of the lately bankrupt City Jcwelry Co., of Montgomery, and five others charged with complicity in or knowledge of the alleged frauds, were, on Friday, held to bail in heavy sums, their attorneys waivng examination. Two others of the Shreves are on their way from San Antonio, Tex, where they were arrested
 The hearing was before Judge John A.. Elmore United States commissioner, with Assistant Attorney General Ambrecht of Mobile the prosecutor. Half dozen spe- ciai agents of the department of justice sgt by him, backing him with testimony gathered in many states. The only bond reduced was that of John Savage, a negro, who will be released on $500, the reduction being half. The government intends to prove by John Johnson and John Savage that shortly after they went to Greenville to work as porters for the store of Jesse Shreve the store was burned.
 The bonds required are as follows J. H. Jernigan, John Johnson, $5000 each; John Savage. $250o; Sam Coplan, A. r. Michler, Archie shreve D. H. Shreve, George shreve, Jesse Shreve, Joseph Shreve, Hilliard Shreve, Reuben Shreve, n0,0OO each. They must be made by Tuesday next or the defendants go to jail The assistant attorney general also demands that there be proper showing that Tn bonds made no indemnity be provided to any of the signers by any of the Shreves The bonds of the two on the way from Texas were also fixed at s1O00O by agreement.
 Two women were in the list of wit nesses, Miss Daisy Whiddon of Green vile, once a stenographer for the Shreves. and Mrs. NJ. B. Mckenzie of Andalusia. telegraph operator at that place. Both say they are not the "mys- terious woman" in the case. G. F. Mer- tins of Montgomery is associated with the prosecution, while Hill, Hill x Whit ing of Montgomery; Claude Hamilton of Greenville and W. L. Parks of Andalu- sa are for the defendants.
 A. J. Hoyt, detective of Jacksonville, Fla, is here, and says he represents values of s130,Oo0 outside of jewelry said to have been lost in four failures in which the shreves are said to have had part. His work has nothing to do with that of the government.

Dun's Weekly Review

New York, Aprll &.-R. G. Dun x Co. s weekly review tomorrow will say:
 Business conditions are still irregular, but the volume of business continues heavy. Certain unfavorable developments have apparently been exaggerated, and their effect on business sentiment has been out of proportion to their real significance. Much as usual depends this year upon crops.
 No concerted action has been taken to curtail production of pig iron but sev- erai more furnaces have blown out their stacks and others are expected to do like wise. A preparation has been advanced among merchant furnaces in some of the largest Pennsylvania districts to shut down for 30 days between now and July 1. Insofar as demand for pig iron is con- cerned, conditions are, if anything, more quiet than in the preceding weeks, but prices now have some resistance to the declining tendency except in steelmaking iron. In finished goods conditions are
 mixed, and no great amount of business Is being done Rail requirements of the railroads apparently have boen mainly filled, and two export orders call for 2S, ,0oc tons
 The primary dry goods markets are steadier but still rule generally quiet Cottoh soous are snade nrmer, as shown
 by an advance of Ac on drills and sheet- ings and curtailment of production is steadily increasing. It is seasonably
 quiet in the Jobbing trade, but retailers buy steadily and carefully without de- sire to anticipate beyond Immediate re- | quirements Duplicate orders for fall | mems wear woolens are coming in but 1 the trade in worsteds rules quiet More | favorable prices in the worsted yarn mar
 kets promise wider buying in the near fu-
 ture. Dress goods trade continues light. | A good volume of new orders for the next fall run have been received by shoe
 manufacturers in all sections of the coun-
 try. Sole leather Is stronger, and the largest tannery announces an advance of
 2 to 3 cents per pound. Sales of western
 packer hides during the last 10 days ag- gregated about 175,O00 hides. and this has | served to steady the market.

TRADE RETARDED
 BY COLD WEATHER Reports of Crop Damage Have
 Affected Fall Orders
JOBBING TRADE IS SLOW
in Textile Production, Cotton Is still Unsettled and Iron Is
 Very Quiet

New York, April 99-Bradstreets tomor- row will say:
 Cold weather with snow west and south has checked retail trade and duiled re- order business in spring goods, while the reports of crop damage resulting from the return of winter have tended to discour- age fall business pending clearer views of the ultimate crop outlook.
 Taken as a whole the reports from job ping and wholesale trade lines and indus tries point to a slowing down rather than quickening of demand, and the down. ward tendency of many commodities does not seem to have brought out much new business, the feeling being apparently that buying to fill only actual needs is now the part of conservatism. pending clearer views of crop and price outturn. The textile trades fail to reflect much expan- sion of demand. The cotton situation is still unsettled and extension of curtail- ment is being advocated, while the wool market is easier. both for old and new supplies.
 In the iron and steel trades pig iron production is in excess of demand and some furnaces are blowing out. Indictment weather temporarily checked building op- erations, but activity in that line is still manifest. The leather and shoe trades are quiet but eastern shoe shipments are equal to a year ago.
 Prices of commodities have tended downward, which is a possible reflection of faith in future supplies and of crop damage being exaggerated Food prod ucts are generally lower at wholesale.

SELMA MAN BITTEN BY PET DOG VISITS MONTGOMERY FOR TREAT MENT--yETERAN VISITS SCENE OF BATTLE

Selma, April 29.-(Special.)-A -Adolph P. Schweizer, well-known young jewelry merchant of this city, has gone to Mont gomery to undergo a course of treatment at the Pasteur institution there.
 A few days ago MT Schweizer was bit ten by little pet dog which he has had for several years The pet also bit two dogs and later developed signs of rabies. Both of the dogs bitten have since gone mad and were killed. Upon the ad- vice of his physicians MT. Schweizer yes terday took the body of the dog which had bitten him and left for Montgomery. An examination of the animal will be made, and If it had been suffering with the rabies MT. Schweizer will undergo a course of the Pasteur treatment.
 l.. c. Bramcamp, Union veteran, whose home is in Cincinnati, and who has been attending the reunion of Confeder- ate veterans in Mobile, spent today in Selma. Mr. Bramcamp was a member of Wilson's raiders when they fought the battle of Selma a little over 45 years ago. He came to Selma for the purpose of again visiting the scene of the last battle that was fought during the war between the north and the south.
 During his visit here today MT. Bram- camp called upon number of the older residents of Selma and discussed with them the battle of Selma and incidents connected with it. He was cordially greeted by all of the older residents upon whom he called and his visit to Selma was most pleasant one.
 The younger society set of Selma are indebted to Miss Louise Hooper for most delightful entertainment this even- ing in celebration of her fourteenth birth- day. The affair was given at the cozy cottage adjoining the handsome home of the honoree's parents MT. and Mrs Lloyd Hooper and the lawn where many of the guests fingered was made decidedly att tractive by an artistic arrangement Of Japanese lanterns and number of rus tic swings and settees. About 50 young people were present and they made merry by playing various games and dancing. From prettily appointed table fruit punch was served by Misses Minnie Me Kinnon, Eleanor Gary, Marguerite Eie- bash and Jennie Calen.

ARIZONA MICHIGAN EXPLORES SILVER
 FORMATION

The development of the 500-foot level of the Arizona-AIichigan continues in hard dioritc south of the shaft and in congIomerate ir the north crosscut. The drift started l3J feet north of the shaft few weeks ago has been exploring q silver-bcariHg quartz vein which, during the past two weeks, has been found to be highly mineralized with iron and manganese in the form of oxides, and as greater lengths are attained by the drift, the general appearance of the vein improves both in character and in size This vein dips as though it joined the Dewett ledge, which outcrops farth CT north. The rock in which the vein occurs is diorite and the walls are we'll defined. After driving the north cross cut l7j feet farther from where it cut this vein, quartz conglOmerate was entered and the crosscut has continued in this formation from the 3O5 foot point to the present face $50 feet from the Telfair shaft.

CORDOvA ASSAY|NG TWO PER GENT
 COPPER

A new Star churn drill has arrived at the Cordova Copper eompany's prop erty in Miami district, and within few days, when the road to the initial position will be completed, this drill will begin operations, in the vicinity of the Jennie Shaft on which sinking has been temporarily discontinued.
 The work in the Jennie shaft has opened ground of very nearly average commercial grade The last assays made of the porphyry near the bottom of this shaft gave returns of ? per cent and when the schist which underlies the granite porphyry IS. eventually opened the assays will probably show good commercial grade of ore. Ev- dence in support of this belief is found in the crosscut east from the 470-foot level of the Sullivan shaft of the Flu reka claim of this property. This shaft is located several hundred feet east of the Jennie shaft, and the crosscut al ready driven 37j feet eastward has been in sulphide ore running per cent copper for about half of its length. The schist in which the work on that part of the property has been done was first entered by the shaft at depth of about 355 feet and continues to the bottom 40 feet lower. More quartzose schist was entered by the crosscut east ward, where the chalcOcite is the prin- cpal copper mineral. All assays taken of this schist have shown it to be of a good grade, assaying about per cent.

GLOBE COMPANY |s
 KEEPING BUSY
Operations on Small Scale Being Carried on at
 Property

The Globe Mining company is contin uing operations on a small scale at it's property in the Copper Hill district. The crosscut westward on the 400foot level from the shaft is being driven through diabase at the present distance of about 60 feet from the shaft. Cop per bearing quartz stringers are encoun- tered occasionally which gives the ground a similar appearance to that being opened by the shaft and cross cuts in the Superior & Globe property, adjoining the Mineral Farm on the east.
 The large ledge outcropping a short distance west of the shaft of the Globe Mining company is estimated to be only a few feet from the face of the cross cTt now being driven. If, at this depth, the ledge looks promising, the shaft will probably be sunk 200 feet deep CT, and the ledge will again be opened at the 600-foot level.
 The tunnel work farther south on the property is expected to encounter cop per ore very soon as the face of this
