NEGRO ARRESTED

John Mason Had Four Quarts OF
Gosh And Pistol In His
Possession.

John Mason, negro, fell into the
clutches Of the city police court, yes
terday when he was arrested in Green
wood by Assistant Chief Of Police
Tom Chapman with suit case, con-
tanning four quarts Of gosh and a
pistol.
Mason was brought before Judge
E. V. Hughston this morning and was
fined $100 and costs on two charges,
one of having intoxicating liquors in
his possession and the other for car
rying concealed weapons.
Although Mason protested that he
bought the liquor from tall mulat-
to in Greenwood, the officers are Of
the opinion that he manufactured the
booze himself.
Chief of Police Bonner stated this
morning that negroes who were ar
rested and fined now, were having
much more difficulty in getting some
one to pay their fines than they were
year ago. A negro who is fined
heavily in the city court now, stands
good chance Of going to the farm,
Mr.. Bonner stated, money is not 80
plentiful among the negroes and they
we're finding it hard task to raise
thei rfines.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 26-There had
been a good deal of selling in connec-
tion with the past January deal, part
ly to liquidat straddles and partly on
opposition to the deal.
The markets in consequence are
probably somewhat temporarily over
sold in the later positions and some
natural rallies on covering were like
ly. That this happened was shown
today by the action of the Liverpool
market which, after being 10 down as
due presented futures about Is high
er than due at opening time here with
cables reporting, Small failure; un-
important; rallied on better demand;

General news from abroad showed
no particular encouragement and the
news from Paris that some Of the
Allies problems will have to be car
ried over for a later conference in
London and that British forces are
withdrawing from Persia because of
soviet conquest of that country, made
rather unfavorable impression.

news from abroad conditions on this
side could work towards further re-
covery and buying on reactions on
the whole seems to face better pros
poets on technical conditions alone.

Report Of The Audit Committee Is
Made Public-Find Books
Neatly Kept.

The undersigned, Auditing Commit
tee of the Chamber of Commerce,
having completed the final monthly
audit of the books Of the Chamber of
Commerce for the year 1920, report
same found correct and neatly kept,
with all expenditures covered by pro-
perly numbered checks and vouchers.
The affairs of the organization
have been economically managed, and
Notwithstanding a material increase
in expenses, due to abnormal prices
and a number extra demands, there
has been slight gain in funds.
This Committee took occasion in
its report last January, to refer to
the fact that the rate fight won by
the Greenwood Chamber of Com
merce before the Interstate Com
merce Commission had not only saw
ed the wholesale business Of this city,
but anywhere from one to two hun
dred thousand dollars year in its
freight bills. Just now it is engag-
ed in another fight almost as serious,
and one in which it should have the
unqualified support and backing Of
every citizen of this community.
There is not commercial organiza=
ton in the State that has done more
for its community than this one ac-
complished in the rate case OF 1918.
There is not person in the commu-
nifty who is not benefitting either di-
rectly or indirectly by the results ac-
complished on that occasion, and who
is not directly interested in the out
come of the present effort to preserve
fair and reasonable rates.
