Though Maj. Richard Sylvester, SUPER

people Of Washington to cooperate with
the city officials in the enforcement of

EMBARGO ON PRESENTS
BY WAR DEPARTMENT
Enlisted Men May No Longer Make
Gifts to Wives Of Their CON-
handing O6eers.

Gifts from enlisted men in the army to
the wives Of officers will not be per-
mitted by the War Department. Recent
ly the War Department learned that q
number Of enlisted men had raised a
fund and bought a gift. which they pre-
scented to the wife Of their commander,
as he was about to leave for another
post.
This action by the enlisted men was in
partial recognition of her disinterested
work for the benefit Of the enlisted men
and their families. notably on behalf of
widows and orphans at the post
The department holds that, no matter
how much the enlisted men may desire
to show their appreciation of kindness
and service rendered to them, it Is con.
ttary to the maintenance or military dis
cipline for them to make presents to the
wife Of any officer. No action was taken
by the War Department in this instance,
in which no names have been revealed.
beyond calling the departments view to
the attention of the officer concerned.

ust 25. Toward the end Of this week
the trade will begin to get interested
in private estimates on condition. One
or two of them may be important
enough to move values.
The trade has an easier feeling re-
garding the Clarke amendment to tho
tariff bill, because reports from Wash
ington of late have conveyed the i'm
preston that the desire among con-
gressmen is growing to regulate
rather than to destroy the present
marketing system. However, the mar.
ket will be sensitive to influences
from this quarter until the matter is
settled.
The spot demand will be watched
closely because there are indications
of improvement in it. Increased ac-
tivity in the spot centres of the South
hardly can fail to have a bullish effect
on the future market

Demand for Spots Legislative News

cupy the Stage for the Present.

New Orleans, Sept. 21.-Weather
conditions this week probably will
play less prominent part in the cot
ton market than for long time past.
The spot demand, exports, Legislative
news from Washington, the pending
final report on condition of the sea-
son and ideas regarding the size OF
the crop, all promise to receive more
cosideration than the daily weather
maps.
The trade feels the weather Of the
near future can have no very great
influence on the size Of the yield.
Rains would reduce the grade of the
crop but hardly would reduce the size.
The time of the first killing frosts
is not yet near enough to receive par
ticular attention. The belief is grow
ing that it is too late in the season
for the plant to make anything that
can mature.
Thursday will end the present con-
dition period, which is the last of this
season. Figures on condition will be

ture October 2. 1t generally is thought

Sherman. The men knew that Hat
tons wife had, during Saturday, gone
back to her home and secured Hat
tons clothes and had taken them to
Sherman's home. The suppositiOn wa:
that HattOn would go to Sherman's
house during the night to get hi,
clothes and then skip out of the coun.
try. The clothes were found and
were inentified, but the negro's where
abouts was not learned.
Detailing q couple Of men to watch
the Sherman house from nearby
bushes the crowd of men went on a
searching tour of the woods and
nearby houses, but they met with no
success.
Rain fell in torrents at intervals.
and the searchers were driven indoors
to wait until the weather changed.
The searchers returned to their
homes this morning without having
found the man. The search is being
prosecuted this afternoon and will
probably be carried into the night
The young woman whom the negro
insulted is the daughter of probably
the largest farmer in the township
The husband is the son Of a very
prominent and influential farmer,
and is one who has wide and we'll
known family connection. Besides be-
ing a bit nervous the young woman
has suffered no ill effects from the
incident. She has been staying with
her fathers family since the occur
renee while the search for the negro
has been directed from the home Of
the young husbands father.
Eugene Hatton is described as being

Of age, weighing probably $50 pounds

Brushy Creek Section Scene of Oc-

is That Negro Will be Caught.

Anderson, Sept. 21.-Sheriff Ashley
and his deputies together with vol
unteer posses, have been securing the
Brushy Creek section of this county
since Friday night in search of Eu-
gene Hatton, negro, accused of
grossly insulting the wife of his en-
ployer, a planter, in the northern part
of Anderson county. The search, it
is understood, is still being prosecuted
by the volunteers. the officers having
returned to the city, after leaving in
structions for the pursuit. 1t is con-
sidered scarcely probable that Hat
ton can escape from the searchers. He
will hardly be taken alive.
Friday afternoon the negro went
to the farm where he worked and
asked the young woman whether her
husband was at home. Learning Of his
employers absence. the negro is said
to have offered gross insult to the
young woman. She fled to the home
Of her father-in-law, and returned
with two women members of the
household. One of them with a pistol
covered the negro and demanded his
name. He gave it as Eugene Hatton.
Then, in spite of the pistol, he man
aged to make good his escape.
Returning from Piedmont, the
young husband learned Of the Incl
dent, and with his father went to the
negro's house. The two called Hatton
out, but accepted his explanation,
inasmuch as they were imperfectly
informed as to his conduct. The young
woman had begged, too, that his life
be spared.
Later in the night the two learned
further details Of the negro's actions
and decided to search for him. Mean
while, Hatton had fled.
Saturday the sheriff was notified
end he and Deputy Sanders went to
the scene. They, with the assistance
Of the Brushy Creek people, made u
thorough search, but were able to get
but the slightest traces of the negro's
course.
Last night about s o'clock word was
received that the negro had been seen
crossing the, watermelon patch of a
neighbor and that he had gun across
his shoulder. Between Is and Is
men, headed by the father of the
young wife and the father Of the
young husband, began systematic
