SHIPMENTS TO MOVE
Southerners Confer with State Depart
ment-Attomey Beall Places Blame
Upon Owners of Vessels.

Not a scarcity Of ships, but refusal of
shipowners to accept cotton for trans
portatIon except upon way bills designat-
ing the particular consignee. is the reason
assigned for the inability of Germany to
receive shipments Of American cotton. by
H. NJ. Threefoot, representing the cot
ton exchange and board Of trade of
Meridian. Miss; Mr.. Rosenberg. also of
Meridian, and Fred Beal, an attorney Of
this. city.
Mr.. Threefoot, who has been comforting
with shipowners and officials regarding
this discrimination against cotton ship
ments, received word yesterday that the
New York shipmasters have receded
from their former position and now It
is hoped that cotton will move more
rapidly. Shipments Of cotton, II is. said,
may be made under the usual reguIa-
tions.
Blame ShipOwners.
Referring to an interview with George
S. Atwood, secretary OF the American
Association OF Commerce and Trade, with
headquarters in Berlin, appearing in
Saturdays Herald, in which Mr.. Atwood
the trade bodies OF the country and a
scarcity Of merchant marine is responsi-
BILE for the failure of the United States
to take advantage of the cotton famine
in Germany Mr.. Beall replied by placing
the blame on the want of nberality upon
the part OF the shipowners.
They have refused to accept cotton
except upon way bills designating the
particular consignee," said Mr.. Beall.
The usual way OF shipping is to con-
sign the cotton to a certain place and
ask to have some financial institution
notified. upon whom a draft Is drawn
for the purchase money Of the cotton.
ShIpmasters have insisted that the cotton
should be consigned to a particular in
dividual at a particular place. which
handicaps the exporter"
Mr.. Threefoot and Mr.. Rosenberg. with
Mr.. BeaIl, called at the State Depart
ment In reference to this alleged dis
elimination against cotton shipments, and
Solicitor Johnson offered to take up the
matter and use his best services to Sc
cure reasonable and proper treatment
from the shipowners.

Forced to Retract
BY ELIZABETH DRAKE CAREY

did not trouble him, for not q year
passed that he fought fewer than half a
dozen. But he did not like fighting the
husband Of a woman on a charge
that he had stared at her. and he was
not satisfied as to the status Of the wo-
man herself, since she had. been In a
public cafe unattended. He belonged
to the court circle and to fight n
n except a gentleman would detract
from his social standing. He endeav-
ored to discover who was NJ. du' Pies
sis, but found no one who had ever
heard Of him. However, thinking to
suffer less by fighting a man Of the
people than by declining to fight, he
concluded, SO long as the affair would
not interfere with his meeting with
Mathewson, to let it proceed.
He was OF the ground the next
morning waiting for NJ. du Plessis,
who had not arrived, when a carriage
drove up and out. stepped a lady<sat
tended by a maid. She drew aside
her veil and revealed the features OF
Mile de Boyer. Vaudelais was .thuD
derstruck.
"How long, NJ. lie Count" she said.
'since you constituted yourself my
guardian. with the right to say who
shall and who shall not pay me at.
tention" | &c..
"Hortense, what do you mean by
such words?" ~.
II mean that l have heard that you.
whose brains are in. your limbs, have
under pretext, challenged a mar
whose brains are in his head because
he danced with me several times at {
recent ball. l propose that you shall.
first settle with NJ for accepting his
invitations. after which you may set
tie with him for giving them"
Throwing off a long cloak. she re
vealed a fencing costume. Vaudelais
did all in his power to. avoid fghtin::
a woman and succeeded only by
pledging himself to withdraw his
challenge to Mathewson.. admitting
the true reason for having given it
with an abject apology.
Mathewson was in a shooting gal
lery when he received the counts
withdrawal. He endeavored to dis
cover the reason for its reception. but
Mile. de Boyer had pledged every II
concerned not to reveal the truth.
When Mathewson left for America he
would have taken Mile. de Boyer with
j him as his wife, but she was related
to the royal family, and to marry q
co1nmoner and go to the American
wilderness was not to be thought of
for i moment. .

The Weekly Farm Budget
FATTEN LAMBS BY OILMEAL.
It Is a Much More Economical Way
Than Using Cottonseed Meal,

Thai Oillncai is much more ecOnom
zeal to feed lambs than cottonseed
meal has been shown by many tests,
says the Iowa Homestead. One OF the
most interesting tests showed a differ
cnce Of 13 cents per pound in the
cost of producing lambs in favor Of the
Oilmcal.
One lot Of lambs rs near like lot No.
, as possible was fed a ration consist
ing Of one part oilmcal and two parts
cornmeal. In addition to this the lambs
pasture.
Having access to n similar pasture,
the other lot was fed Il ration of one
part ~cOttonseed meal and two parts
cornnleai.
At the time this test was conducted
the price Of oilmeal was 500 per ton
and the price of cOttonsced meal 500
per ton. SO. in addition to making bet
ter gains. the oilmeal cost less per
tom.
Lot No. l.. which was fed the oil
meal, made a weekly gain of 3.3
pounds per lamb, while the lot fed cot
tonseed meal made . weekly gain Of
only 2.95 pounds per lamb.
With the oilmeal it cost 50 for each
100 pounds of lamb represented by the
gain. In the lot fed cottonseed meal
each 100 pounds Of gain cost 1881.
This is a difference of $1.31 per 100
pounds gain.
But. in addition to this. the lot fed
oilmeal gained more pounds, so the net
result was a cost of . cents per pound
for the gain made by the lambs on the
oilmeal ration. while the gain of those
fed ]cottonseed meal cost 1-3 cents
per pound.

FOOD FLAVORS cows MILK.
fastest Product From Animals Fed
With Bran and Corn.

The department Of agriculture has
just concluded Il series of experiments
to determine the effect on the favor of
milk of feeding different kinds of ra-
tons to cows. The department has
decided in favor Of bran and corn as
producing the finest favored milk.
Some dairymcn have Il theory that
feeding crushed oats to cows will i'm
prove the flavor of the milk. Six cows
were used in the experiments. and the
various kinds of rations were fed to
them. Fifty opinions were passed on
the samples OF milk. Sixteen prefer
red milk from coWs fed on crushed
oats. twenty-five preferred that from
the bran and corn ration. while nine
expressed no choice. The department
decided that the ration containing bran
and corn was preferable in producing
a fine favored milk.

MIL, XIV. and XIV. of France
dueling was SO prevalent that
at one time it began to ap-
pear that all the bravest men in
France would be killed. While Louis
XIV. was on the throne a young gradu-
ate Of the College Of New Jersey went
abroad for the purpose of finishing his
education by travel.
Paris in those days was a favorite
resort for the few colonists Of North
America who ventured to cross the
Atlantic, and young Mathewson made
quite Il sojourn there. The principal
reason for his doing so was Mile. Hor-
tense de Boyer, a dashing girl, who was
setting the young bloods of the capital
wild. She was considered the most
graceful dancer and the best horsewo-
man in Paris and had so far practiced
the art Of self defense as to stand
we'll as a handler of the foil.
One evening after Il ball, at which
Mathewson had paid marked attention
to Mile. de Boyer. he was addressed by
Il young army officer as follows:
II am the bearer of a, challenge to
you from Count CASTOR Vaudelais. you
having during the evening brushed
against him In the dance"
Mathewson knew very we'll that the
charge was but a pretext for the chal-
, lenge and concerned himself only about
| the latter. Moreover. he knew that he
must either accept it or leave Paris.
followed by the contempt of all who
had favored him by their good will.
| He suspected that the true reason for
being called out was that he had paid
marked attention to Mile. de Boyer.
He replied by referring the officer to
a friend. then went to his apartments.
The friend joined him 0 after, and
upon consultation it was determined
to put off the meeting so long as pos
sihle in order that the American might
prepare himself by practice. for he had
no skill whatever with any weapon.
The best. however. that could be done
was to defer the encounter for ten
days. Then Nathevson began to prac-
tice shooting with a pistol.
The next evening after the ball while
Count Naudelais was dining at the cafe
where he was used to taking his dinner

given him was tantamount to a chal-
lenge, he waited for a friend of the
gentleman to appear. Presently a mar
entered and said that he represented
Du Tlessis and made arrangements for
the duel to take place the next morning.
Vaudelais now had two duels on his
hands on successive mornings. This
