NEGRO LODGE
 OFFICIAL ACCUSED
II. II. Holloway Says EmbezzIement Charge Was Inspired By His
 Enemies

II. H. Holloway. the negro treas urer of the colored Odd Fellows lodge at Randell, who was arrested Tuesday night by Deputy Constable King on charge of embezzlement, and who was remanded to jail by Magistrate J. A. Frazier, made bond yesterday afternoon for his appear ance on Monday, September p, at 10 o'clock, at which time number ot witnesses will be in attendance for both sides. The charge of embez- clement grew out of the handling o1 funds sent to Holloway to pay g death claim of deceased member of the Randell lodge. The wife o1 the dead negro, who was beneficiary it is alleged by Holloway, instructed him by letter to sign her name to the warrant and to pay the indebtedness of the deceased out of the money from the lodge due her as bcnefici- ary. This Holloway claims he has done and that he has also turned over to the woman the balance of the dant that it is a conspiracy on the part of several of his enemies to dis credit him and get him in trouble through these charges.

The origin of the fire is unknown. but it is supposed to have resulted from a tramp or tramps accidentally setting the ..cars, which were empty, on fire.
 From parties arriving here this morning on the north bound Cotton Belt, it is learned that the cars were still burning as the train passed, there being no way to put the fire out
 The average cost of box car is S400 which would indicate a loss oi about S16,000 were the cars new Many of them of course, were not ol much value. but the loss will come pretty heavy. The company, however carries insurance on all it's cars.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Sept. 17.-Cotton-Tu- lures opened steady at an advance ol 13M17 points on sensational cables. The rise ill Liverpool was said to have been due to unfayorablc crop ac- counts from Texas, and Oklahoma and fear that labor troubles in Galveston and England would interfere with the movement of raw cotton to mills. Buy ing in this market in the early trad ing was largely sympathetic. The weather map was wet and indicated more rain ill the western belt, whore dry weather is now much desired. This and the better news from Washington regarding the Clarke bill caused some little buying, but the main source of strength was Liverpool. At the end of the first half. hour of business prices were 21M23 points up.
 The market became quiet around the middle of the morning, but held a very steady tone, and on moderate vol tune of business the advance was well maintained and even slightly increased on some months. All the highest ol the morning trading months were g @27 points up. LCngs took profits al the rise, but their offerings were cas- fly a few points. The forecast o1 showery weather for practically tho entire cotton belt was regarded as un favorable in the extreme. Bullisl crop accounts were sent in from i'm portant sections At noon prices Wert 13M24 points over yesterdays las quotations.
