the r'ore outstanding that of cleah
Illness and sanitation.

man, and has lived here all of his life.
His father, the late r. S. Turner, es
tablished the business many years
ago, and at his death the son took
over the business and has carried on
in the we'll known traditions of the
family. Mrs, P : Turner is an. able
assistant IL tn: market devoting
much of her time to the bookkeeping

Mr.. Turner is very active in affairs
of the city. He is a member and a
vice-president of the Kiwanis club.
and is also a moving spirit in the

POULTRY AND EGGS
ARE TOBE HIGHER
Extension Poultry Specialist At State
College Says There Will
Be Fewer Hens

College Station, Raleigh, Sept. s.
Higher prices for poultry and eggs
within the next year are foreseen by
G. F. Parrish, extension poultry spe-
cialist at State College.
Moreover, the cost of feed in COM
parison to the selling price of eggs is
more favorable to poultrymen now
than at any time during the past sew
eral months, he stated
A slight seasonal decline in poultry
prices is expected, but will not equal
the decline last fall, and thus prices
are expected to be higher than they
were for the same season a year ago,
he added.
The prices farmers receive for eggs
this fall are expected to be about the
same as last fall, but during the first
half of 1888 prices will probably be
higher than in the first six months of

MRS. ROOSEVELT
MUM ON APPLE

The question whether the "big
apple" will be danced at the White
House is something entirely new
to Mrs. Roosevelt.
Explaining today on her return
from Seattle that she had seen
newspaper stories on whether or
not the current dance craze would
be performed at tonight's young
peoples party" she said that so
far she hadn't been asked about it.
The party is to be given by
Franklin. jr., and John Roosevelt.
Mrs. Roosevelt flew into Wash
ington at 4 a. m. She was "still
deaf from flying" at her press con-
ference later in the morning.
New Year Eve at the White
House, she said, will be very quiet.
The President and Mrs. Roosevelt
have nothing special scheduled
for tomorrow night. They will,
however, wait up until midnight,
and will phone members Of the

TOKYO'S REPLY
ANNOYS BRITISH
BY KINGsBURY SMITH


LONDON, Dec. 80 Q.N.S).
Japan's reply to the stern British
protest against the Nipponese at
tack on the British gunboat Lady
bird was made public-without
comment-by the foreign office
here today.
Indicative, however, of Britain's
dissatisfaction over the Japanese
message was a sudden decision Of
Prime Minister Neville Chamber
lain and Foreign Secretary An
thony Eden to cut short their
holidays in Yorkshire and return
to London at once to study the
note.
The reply, which is still Off
cially under consideration by the
British government, renewed Nip
pon's profound apology for the
attack, which was expressed in a
previous note, and termed the en-
tire incident a mistake"
The reason for the British dis
satisfaction is that the reply fails
to clarity the extent of punish
ment meted out to the Japanese
authorities directly responsible
for the shelling of the Ladybird
and other British vessels.

Despite Mr.. Roosevelt's demands
for economy last summer, several
members Of the Cabinet asked for
extra funds when they submitted
their appropriation estimates for
the forthcoming fiscal years.
These requests were accom-
panied by the plea that extra per.
sonel was needed in some Govern.

creasing duties imposed on them.

HOPES DIMMED
Nevertheless, hopes for a bal
anced budget during the 1899 fis-
cal year, which starts next July,
have been dimmed by the severe
industrial slump during the past
months. The business recession will
strike the Treasury cash drawer
next year, since a major portion
Of it's 1888 revenues will come from
1887 income tax payments.
Mr.. Roosevelt's budget for the
1889 fiscal period will be placed
before Congress by Tuesday or
Wednesday. While its details were
strictly guarded by budget officials,
it was indicated the deficit fore
cast for the current fiscal year
again would be revised upward.

the amount of the tax thus
arrived at should be the measure

The committee admitted money

would be "problematical" in

BATTLE ROYAL
due IN SENATE.
ON ARMS BOOST.
Plan to Enlarge Defense
Forces Faces Fight
By ARTHUR HACHTEN

G.N.s) National preparedness
forces in Congress today rallied
their might to beat down an up
rising against President Roose-
velt's sudden call for greater arma-
ments.
Senator Key Pittman CD of
Nevada, Foreign Relations Com
mittee chairman, struck out en-
phatically for support Of the Presi-
dents program, declaring:
1--WE must be prepared for any
emergency. National defense is
our national insurance policy"
BATTLE EXPECTED
But the battle royal in the
Senate, where unlimited debate
prevails, was foreshadowed, though
the Military and Naval Affairs
Committees were overwhelmingly
in favor Of having more warships
and stronger land defenses.
With Senators Borah (R.) Of
Idaho, Wheeler CD Of Montana,
Nye and Frazier (R.) Of North Da-
kota. and others vigorous In their
opposition to expansion Of the
armed forces, the die was cast for
a roar Of debate.
Anticipating the President in
his message to Congress Monday,
the day the National Legislature
meets, will recommend sweeping
retrenchment in governmental ex-
penditures other than for arma-
ment, members of Congress were
alarmed lest their pet projects be
sidetracked.
AWAIT MESSAGE
Senators and Representatives re.
turning from their Christmas holi-
days for the impending session
gathered to discuss the general
situation, domestic and foreign,
with all eager to hear the Presi-
dents message Monday indicating
his policies.
Electrified by the Administra-
tion's renewed warfare with big
business and gloomy reports from
the Industrial world, solons looked
forward to ar epochal session Of
Congress. Submerged at least
temporarily by the preparedness
and antimonorcly issues were the
anti-lynching, farm, taA revision,
housing and wage hour bills.
PRINCIPAL INTEREST
While the President was ex-
pected to discuss these measures,
with the exception Of the anti
lynching bill, in his annual mes
sage on the state Of the Union,
which he will deliver personally
to a joint session of the Senate
and House, chief interest was
riveted on his review of foreign
affairs and the domestic business
situation.
Pending Qualification Of the Ad-
miniStrationS program, Congress
sonal leaders preparing the tax
revision bill declared they would
have to delay cutting the cloth"
for the new revenue bill. With
receipt of the Presidents budget
message next week, the tax prob
lem will be simplified, they said.
