WHAT DOES HAYNE MEAN.
Offers Big Price for Entire Stock OF
New Orleans Cotton.

Frank B. Hayne, the we'll known
cotton dealer, threw the New Orleans
Cotton Exchange into fever OF ex-
citement twenty minutes before the
final gong Tuesday, when he offered
to purchase the entire stock of cot
ton in New Orleans at 15.4S cents.
Mr.. Hayne jumped in the rig, push
ed aside his brokers and began cry
ing his bids.
Five thousand May at 49," he
said.
"Fifty thousand bales at 80"
Pandemonium reigned for a few
minutes, and the days of the great
Sully pool were recalled. Again and
again the big bull leader beloved
forth his challenge to the bears. In
the excitement. traders appeared
dazed and those who few minutes
before were offering to sell May
around 1910 were slow to accept
the increased price.
Finally, Mr. Hayne yelled: Il will
take the entire stock Of cotton IN
New Orleans at 15.4S."
When the gong sounded it was es-
timated that he had bought perhaps
5000 bales. But his sudden and
startling movement had the bears
guessing and May became very ac-
tive.
There are reports Of corner in
New Orleans Tuesday night in May

true

Radical Weather Changes.

The Newberry Observer says the
backbone of the cold weather is
broken. The break came somewhat
suddenly on Tuesday. That morn
ing started off at 43 degrees: in the
afternoon the temperature went up
to IS. The temperature Wednesday
morning was 55; Wednesday after
noon it reached 81. There was a
change of ffty-one degrees from
Tuesday morning to Wednesday af-
ternoon. The change was very vel
come, for everybody had got mighty
tired of winter weather in April and

good rain.

Appeal in Jones Case.

\ Columbia dispatch says it is
learned that an appeal will be had
in the John J. Jones case. from Or
angeburg, and that on account OF
the refusal of the State to accept the
defence's statement OF the case, the
papers have been forwarded to
Judge minger for his decision.
Il is the rule that when counsel can
not agree on the case, the Circuit
Judge must settle the matter for
them. 1t appears also that due
notice Of appeal was given, although
nothing is pending in the Supreme
Court. Jones was sentenced to ten
years and one month for the killing
of Abe Pearlstine, OF BranehTille.

WOMEN TOO BUSY AT BRIDGE.
Minister Says They Have Not Time
to Raise Families.

The Rev. J. E. Wray, pastor of the
Mulberry Street church, in Macon,
Ca, in recent sermon, declared
that the women of the present day,
so far as his observation extends, are
too busy playing bridge and going
in society, and the men too deeply
interested in making money, for them
to raise families of creditable size.
He deplored the fact that three or
four children are now considered a
large family, and contrasting this
era with the time when 10 and y
children in family were common.
He said that this indicated regreta-
BILE decline in the standards and NOR
ais of civilization.

PLAYING WITH FIRE
OPEN RIOTING By THE STRIKERS
IN TAMPA, FLA.
Declare Strike VIII Continue Until
della Campo and Other Leaders
Are Pardoned.

Are Pardoned.
AS the result of a mass meeting
at Tampa, Fla, Wednesday after
noon at which indignation was ex-
pressed over the confirmation Of the
sentences of Jose D. La Campo, Brit
Russell and J. F. Bartlum. three d
legged leaders of the recent tobacco
workers troubles, 5000 tobacco
workers declared a strike. About 20
per cent Of the number went out
Wednesday. The men announced
they would not return to work until
the ruling Of the court was rescinded.
Singing the Marseillaise, 5000
cigar makers marched through the
streets Of West Tampa and Ybor
City in a emonstTation against the
decision of Judge Wall Of the circuit
court, upholding the sentencing Of
one year Imprisonment Of Jose della
Campo, and other leaders in the
recent strike at Tampa, Fla, render
ed by the criminal court of record.
Following the parade general
strike was declared, and Tampa
faces the same grave situation which
prevailed through a greater portion
of last year. Further than the gath
ering of crowds of excited workers
on street corners to listen to speeches
by strike leaders, there was no dis
turbance of serious nature.
Wednesday night Judge Wall is
sued a mandate to the sheriff to not
ify the leaders in the movement that
unless the demonstration came to an
end before morning the strike lead
ers under sentence, Jose della Cam
pa, Britt Russell and ]. F. Bartlum
will be remanded to Jail and sent to
the changing at once to begin serV-
ing their terms.
When rumors were received in
the business section Of Tampa that
the cigarmakers had struck and were
rioting, large detail Of police was
hurried to the labor temple in Ybor
City to preserve order. The strikers
gathered in the labor hall and lis
tened to speeches during the after
noon.
When the factories closed the
crowd was augmented by thousands
who did not walk out, and that night
the streets of both Ybor City and
West Tampa are choked with gesti-
culating Latins discussing the situa-
ton.
In manifesto issued during the
afternoon the joint advisory board
stated that the strike will continue
until the men under sentence are
either pardoned or new trial IS
granted. The number who walked
out represent about twenty-five per
cent. of the men employed in the in
dustry in Tampa, and it is feared
that a majority of those who did
not answer the general call will
walk out later.
a meeting of the general trades
and labor assembly is in session dis
cussing the advisability of SYM
pathetic strike Of all of the trade
bodies of the city.

CAUSE OF DISEASE
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH con-
DENNIS HOSIERY MILL.
Outdoor Work Recommended for
ConvictS and i New Building Ask
ed for Females.

The hosiery mill al the State pen
itentiary, in which several hundred
convicts are employed, under five
year contract with the State Of South
Carolina. has been condemned by
the State board Of health, following
an investigation Of conditions to de-
termine the cause of tuberculosis.
The investigation was made as the
result OF a resolution passed by the
general assembly II is expected that
the contract with the operator OF
the hosiery MILL J. NJ. Graham. will
be taken up at the next session of
the legislature. The board Of health
recommends outdoor work for the
convicts.
The hosiery mill at the State pen
itentiary is an old bone of conten-
ton. and conditions there have been
investigated on several previous oc-
casions. The report was made to
4. X. Sanders, the chairman OF the
board of directors Of the Deniten-
tiary. The report quotes the resolu-
ton of the general assembly. The
resolutions provides that the condl-
tions may be remedied by the use
of the funds of the State penlten-
tiary.
1t was resolved by the State board
of health that the building used for
the female prisoners at the penlten-
tiary should be destroyed and a new
building erected at an early date. 1t
is recommended that the sick from
the female ward be removed to a
ward in the general hospital and
that the tuberculosis patients be re-
moved to the tuberculosis hospital
at once.
The board further recommends
that the toilets in the male prison
building should be removed to an en-
tension to be constructed adjoining
the building. that the bedding OF the
prisoners be kept clean, that only
one prisoner be allowed TO occupy
one cell, and that fresh water be pro
vided for the prisoners d.Sng the
night. This RECOMMENDATION condemns
the system in vogue Of causing
the prisoners to take water from
tubs as they enter the prison in the
evening to be locked up for the
night.
With reference to the hosiery mill
the report says: Resolved. That
after a thorough consideration Of all
the phases Of the hygiene and sanr
tation in connection with the work
in the hosiery mill it is the sense OF
the entire board that this form of
employment should be discontinued
and that work of an outdoor nature
should be provided
The present toilet arrangement IN
the general hospital building is con-
demned that toilets and baths in &C
cordance with modern sanitary ideas
be installed. 1t is also recommend
ed that the building be generally
cleaned. and that the entire building
be screened.
The board says that in the tuber.
culosis hospital nothing is found to
condemn, but much to commend
The only suggestion in reference tc
the building is that it be properly
screend.
Concerning the medical system the
report says: That we condemn the
present medical system as inadequate
and inefficient" 1t is recommended
that a chief physician and assistant
be named. White or colored nurses
are recommended.

FEELING is INTENSE
If the War Coin on in the Republi-
can Party Does Not Materialize
Now, 1t Will Come Into Evidence
at Next Republican National Con-
Tention.

The Washington correspondent Of
The Columbia State says an analysis
Of the row in the Senate over the
election of president pro tempore
has given special emphasis to the
growing division among the seLate
Republicans.
One thing after another is widen
ing the breach among them and there
IS no sign whatever that it will be
closed. The old guard leaders on
the Republican side and the progress
sives are getting further and further
apart. The feeling between the two
factions moreover is getting intense.
Not a few political observers be-
lieve that in the split now on there
| is the forerunner Of grave trouble
in the Republican party in 1912. = II
such trouble does materialize it will
materialize at the Republican con-
vention. Those who believe third
PARTY is coming believe the beginning
Of it is now being fashioned in the
senate in the struggles Of the old
guard and the progressives.
| Senator Gallinger, nominated in a
Republican caucus for president pro
tempore, might, under the circum-
stances that used to obtain in the
senate, he expected to get the Re-
publican vote, but the progressive
Republicans, with the exception of
lfour-Borah. Brown, Kenyon and
Dixon-did not go into the caucus
and did not therefore vote for SEN
ator Gallinger. They consider
themselves in no way bound to sup
port Senator Clapp, one of their own
mum ber.
The split comes after two years
Of constant factional fighting. OF
course there were forerunners Of
trouble before the last special ses-
sion on the tariff, but when that ses-
sion was held the differences be-
tween the regulars and insurgents
became acute. In the seven ballots
cast in the senate on the question
| four insurgents voted steadily for
Clapp. They were Bristow, LaFol-
lette, Gronna and Poindexter. Had
they been present, Senators Cum
mings, Bourne, Crawford and Works
would have voted FOR Clapp.
Senator Bacon, Democrat, got 35
votes as his highest number. The
highest Senator Gallinger got was
80. Clapp got four votes and the
others were scattering. Senator
Bacon narrowly escaped election but
he did not quite get majority Of
those present and voting. A few
changes, it is true, would throw the
election to Gallinger, but it is a
question whether any such changes
will occur.
In the first place Senator Calling
er is recognized as one of the lead
ling conservatives of the senate old
guard. The conservatives charge
him with being strongly reactionary.
They are fighting not Gallinger per-
sonaEy, but the things he is standing
for. They insist that man Of more
liberal views ought to be in the chair

A child of eleven years of age, lit
