Charlotte, n. c., July 31.-The water
situation in this city is steadily grow
in'~ more serious. There is no water
to be obtained from the regular
sources and the only relief at present
is afforded by hauling water in tank
cars from the Catawba river, 10 miles
away, which was begun yesterday.
A large force of men is engaged in
connecting the city reservoir with
Briar Creek near here and this will
give about two-thirds the usual sup
ply. This connection will be made by
tomorrow night and then water will
be turned on at regular periods in the
dav. ..--'. '.-.
Bonds have been voted to extend the
line to the Catawba river but work
has not started on this as yet.
The drouth has affected practically
every town near here. The supply has
been curtailed and many cities are
running pipe lines to creeks. Wades-
boro reports the condition serious
there. Greensboro is making prepara-
tions to get an additional supply. Nor
ganton's plight is serious, and other
towns in the state report the same
conditions.
AS a climax to the unprecedented
drouth one hundred and fifty-two cot
ton mills in North and South C ,aina
were shut down today because the Ca
tawbs. river is so low it cannot supply
the mills with power. 1t is estimated
that seventy thousand operates will be
thrown out of employment.

COTTON PRICE
GOES HIGHER
JULY PRICE GOES UP TO FOUR
iTEEN CENTS, BUT SMALL
flAMouNT CHANGES HANDS
CROP SELLING AT 1882.

New York, July 31.-An advance of
practically a cent and a half a pound
marked the final trading in July con-
tracts In the cotton market here to-
day. Trading for that delivery ended
at midday and shortly after IL o'clock
1t became evident that there were q
few shorts still to be covered.
The price of July shot up from 1915
20 14.00 without a sale and then to las
and lat points above the closing OF
Saturday. 1t was estimated that not
more than 10000 bales changed hands
on this advance and with the interest
involved so small. there was no par
ticular excitement
Later deliveries responded only
slightly to the jump in July, but prices
rallied few points from the low rec
ords which had been established at the
opening when all new crop positions
had sold around 1882 owing to the
yveakness in Liverpool and continued
favorable crop reports.

Jackson, Miss, July 31.-Mississippi's
state campaign, the bitterest in the
history of the state, closed tonight and
the ballot battle takes place tomorrow.
The three candidates for the United
States senatorship, the present Sena-
tor Leroy Percy, former Governor Var
daman and c. H. Alexander. delivered
the final speeches tonight. United
States Senator Williams spoke with
Percy at Itta Bena today, denouncing
Vardamanism and appealing to the
voters to return Percy to the senate.
Weather prospects are not favorable
to bringing out full vote. Showers
fell in many parts of the state today
and unless there is a clearing of skies
tonight, it will be a damp and dis
agreeable election.
1t is not likely, however, that the
weather conditions will cut much
figure in the vote. Interest in the
is so intense that the electors will
brave almost any sort of weather in
order to get to the polls.
Since it's inception, the senatorial
campaign has been replete with bit
terness and already reports are coming
in of fist fights resulting from heated
political arguments.
Ex-Governor James K. Vardaman
spoke today at Flora, Madison county,
was met at the union station by a
large crowd of his supporters, many
of whom are expected from the ad-
joining towns. A torchlight procession
was formed, the parade moving east
ward on Capitol street to Smith Park,
where Mr.. Vardaman delivered his final
address.
Mr.. Alexander had no speaking en-
gagement today but his forces had a
great rally at Poindexter Park in the
western section of the city tonight.
Senator Leroy Percy spoke to sew
eral thousand citizens at Itta Bena.
Leflore county, today. He was intro
duced by his colleague, Senator John
Sharp williams, who journeyed from
Washington to cast his ballot for Mr..
Percy and who spoke in his behalf.
The supporters of Vardaman declare
that their candidate will be nominated
in the first primary by from 10000 to
35, 900 majority.
The Alexander and Percy bureaus
are agreed in the conclusion that there
will be no nomination on the first pri-
mary.

Railroad Commutation Rates are
Declared ExcessiOe by Commission

railroads and commuters in every CEN
ter of population in the country.
What is regarded as the most i'm
portant holding of the commission
from the viewpoint of the railways, is
that 1t takes full Jurisdiction over all
Communication rates and assumes, under
existing law, the power to regulate
those rates precisely as it regulates
straight passenger fares and freight
rates.
The respondent railroads in this case
denied the commissions authority to
assume such power, maintaining that,
as communication fares were far lower
than straight passenger fares, which
were conceded to be reasonable and
that. as all commuters were treated
with absolute equality the railroads s
right to adjust Communication rates
without interference could not be
questioned.
