BARBECUE GIVEN
At ALEXANDER CITY
Daughters of Confederacy
Entertain in Honor of
Veterans Thursday

Alexander City, August 29.-(Special)
Under the auspices of the Sidney Lanier
chapter, United Daughters of the Con-
federacy, a barbecue was given Thursday
at Alexander City in honor of the con-
federate veterans Of Camp Lee, the local
camp of the confederate veterans at
Alexander City.
There were many visiting veterans from
neighboring camps of Goodwaetr, Hollins,
Lineville, Dadeville and other points. A
similar occasion was held in honor of
these esteemed veterans only eight years
ago here, and it was noticeable at yes
terday's functions only 60 of the old
guard answered to the roll call, whereas
eight years ago 140 were present.
The weather was ideal and the long
tables loaded and to those who were
present it was day of great pleasure.
There were about 1000 or more people
present and not one word of politics was
limited at by any one present

New York. August 2e.-speculatioa
failed to maintain today the brisk pace
set yesterday, although the recent gains
were well held. In the absence of definite
news from Mexico and with no striking
developments in any other quarter, incen-
tive for active trading was lacking. The
approach of a triple holiday tended still
further to curtail dealings.
Bears attempted to depress the list at
the opening, but the market was 100
strong for them. With Smelling, Steel
and the coalers in the lead, highest prices
of the present movement were reached.
Later in the day, owing to realizing and
the weakness of few stocks, the list
moved slowly downward with increased
heaviness toward the close, which in
many cases eliminated the earlier gains.
