Reports from manufacturers show

there is more reserved stock in the

practically one broker for every manu-
facturer in the yellow pine telt.
Labor conditions are very unsatis-

boom in the naval stores industry fol
lowing the advanced prices of these
products and to the development OF
the farming interests which is taking
greass deal of labor from the saw

in south Georgia and Florida during
the last IL months has been so great
as to cause a scarcity of labor even
in the sawmill industry, despite the
fact that many mills have shut down
altogether and many others are run.

to hide them. In all there were three
or four dozen half-pints OF whisky
and q few dozen bottles of beer. The
negro, as well as all of the goods.
were placed in hack and brought to
the city barracks. Smith failed to
give bond and is teing held until this

Smith stated to the officers that he
was keeping the whisky and beer in
the store for his own private use,
but there is pretty good evidence that
he has been selling it.

COMMISSIONS
GRAHAM ONC0TTON
He Thinks Extended Markets
Are More Desirable, if Pro-
durable, Than Reduced
Acreage

State Commissioner Of Agriculture
w. A. Graham, in speaking of cotton
said:
TWo-thirds Of the cotton crop is
exported. The foreign markets reg
ulate the price. For five years the
National Government, through the
Department. of Commerce and Labor
have hy sending agents to almost
every ountry that has my commerce
endeavored to extend the market for
cotton goods and procure statistics as
to node and cost OF production.
cit Is but just that the same pro-
ceedings should be had through the
same department or the Agricultural
Department to endeavor to extend the
market for raw cotton or cotton in
the bale, and if Congress at its ap-
preaching session will make provision
for this it may be productive of much
good to the cotton farmer. Let these
agents visit China, Japan, Morocco
and also the great markets in Eu-
rope where cotton is bought and fur
nish suggestions as to measures to
increase sales"

WORLDS SCULL|NG
TITLE At A STAKE
Australian and a New Zeal
ander Race Saturday at
Sydney, N. S. w.
National News Association

Sydney, N. S. W., July 2S.-The
sculling match for the championship
of the world between Richard Arnst of
New Zealand and Harry Pearce of
Australia will be rowed tomorrow on
the Paramatta River The contest will
take place over course of three and
a half miles. The stakes are $4,000 a
side. Arnst is a favorite in the betting.
Arnst, the present holder of the ii
tie, is generally regarded as the great
est oarsman the world has ever pro-
duced. He is twenty-eight years old
clist he is known in New ealand and
Australia as one of the best road rae
ers, while he has been equally success
full on the track His chief success in
that line was in the Sydney "thous-
and the most valuable race in the
world
In 1906 he decided to take up soul
ling. and on Jan. IS, 1907, completed
in the allAomers' Best and Best boat
handicap. That event was won by S.
Pearce. with twenty five seconds
start, Arnst being second. The follow
ing month Arnst competed in the Rush
handicap, and received thirty-one Sec
onds' start. He had in the meantime
made such improvement that he won
easily.
His success caused him to be brou-
ght back to the scratch mark in the
subsequent handicaps, but such form
did he show, that both at the Ulmarra
regatta, on Nov. II, 1907, and Coraki
regatta, nine days later, he won. At
about this time he defeated Charles
Towns, who subsequently was beaten
by Webb for the worlds championship
On Aug. 1, 1908, he sculled Harry
Pearce on the Parramatta and won
easily, and then on Dec. Is, 1908, de-
feated William Webb on the Wangan-
nj for the worlds title. Shortly after
he met Webb in a return engagement
over the same course and again was
successful In the early part of last
year he successfully defended his title
against Welch and last August he de-
feated Barry, the English chapmion,
on the Zambest River in Rhodesia.

DR.. HALOEMAN NOT
GUILTY OF CHARGE
Wife Refuses to Testify that
New Paris Inventor
Tried to Kill Her.
palladium Specially

Eaton, Ohio, July 28.-Because Of
the refusal of the wife to testify, Dr.
Allen F.. Haldeman, of New Paris,
charged with assault with intent to
kill his wife, was acquitted Thursday
afternoon by justice l.. r. Stephen.
Rachel Haldeman, daughter of the
couple. testified against the father and
charged that she had seen him point
revolver and attempt to shoot Mrs.
Haldeman. The charges of the daugh-
ter were all denied by the accused,
and no further evidence would be pro-
duced to show his guilt.
The alleged attempt at shooting
took place last Wednesday morning at
the Haldeman home, The Cliffs"
near New Paris.
For some time troubles have existed
between Haldeman and his wife, and
he left her some time ago, taking up
his abode in a little shack a consider
able distance behind the palatial res
idence. Haldman testified that on the
morning Of the trouble his wife and
daughter, hunting blackberries, came
in the vicinity of the shack The wo-
man, he said, attacked him and made
great scattering of his household eff
fects and breakfast, which he was
about to enjoy. Fearing she would
grab the revolver, which was lying on
table, he seized it, only to retain it's
possession. But at this juncture, the
daughter charged he leveled the gun
at his wife and pulled the trigger.
The cartridges did not explode.
Because of the prominence of DR..
Haldman, the case attracted consider
able attention, both in Eaton and at
New Paris. He is reputed to be veal
thy and has prominent relatives in this
city. Several years ago he was in
control of the Cedar Springs health re-
sort. He has lately gained much
prominence by the invention of a con-
crete bed for electric railroads.
