WAR'S EFFECT ON
COTTON MARKET
Farmers Do Not Seem to Re
gard the Situation As at
All Serious.
SOME ARE STILL HOLDING
To their Crops What the Ware
housemen Think of the War
Prospects.
Th. prospect of war and th' subsequent
falling oft of th. price in cotton has done
v.-ry'little toward creating any activity in
tin- local market.
There ar. still a large number of bales
of the fl. tty . 'aide in the warehouses of
Macon, and th. farm, rs are not ffisjiosed
to < lo*. out. This is explained by the
w it< hou ■ mt n by the fact that few of the
farmers take the daily papers, and are not
aware oi the danger that threatens the
pri< < of cotton in event war is declared
iwlth Spain.
A Newt rejtortfr >aw several of the lead
ing warehouse tn. n of the city today and
n Ked their opinion of what the results ol
a d<-.dotation of war would have on the
mat het. The general opinion was that the
price wtuld go down at least 2 cents.
Those planters who keep up with the ac
tions and propositions of the -two govern
ments are becoming frightened and are
.dosing out their cotton with a rush,
though there is still a large amount being
it. Id.
Up to dai. something like 65,000 bales
have been received in Macon since the
first of September, 1897. There Is very
little more to come, and the crop for this
y. ar iii Bibb < oun ty, as it is marketed in
Macon, will not exceed, if it reaches, 70,-
000 bales.
In speaking of the situation this morn
ing, a prominent warehouseman said to a
News reiHuter that while he did not be
lieve th it there would be hostilities be
tween the United States and Spain, the
operators in Nt w York were using this as
an excuse to pull the market down. In
< vi nt I'iiendly relations are restored be
tween Spain and the United Stakes, the
* lleot oil the cotton market, is believed
aiming the cotton men litre, would be to
force the market up, as 'that is now the
only excuse that is given tor its depres
sion.

SMALLPOX (SITUATION.
Not a Case Has Been Reported to the Board
This Week.
SMALL POX SITUATION
Not a case of smallpox has ben reported
in the city since last Saturday night and
there are no suspected cases that are
known to the Board of Health though
every effort is made to discover their
whereabouts.
The board has every reason to be en
couraged and they think that the disease
has been stoped. The food for vaccination
seems to have died out and it would appear
that every man, woman and child in the
city has been vaccinated.
One case was reported to the Board of
Health of the county this morning. It
came from Plesant Hill where all of the
other cases have originated. This is the
first case that the county 'has had for some
time and there are now only nine eases at
the county pest house.
The situation all around seems to be
very encouraging.
BASEBALL TOMORROW.
Msrcer Boys Will Cross Bats With the Pen

Tomorrow afternoon the Mercer Univer

CROOM’S CASE
Charged With Stealing a Bill From the City
—on Trial This Morning.
In the city court this morning the case
of Robert Crooms, charged with stealing a
bell belonging to the city from Central
Ci'ty park, was called and the jury retired
at 11:30. At 3 o’clock no verdict had been
returned and a mistrial is considered Very
probable.
It will be remembered that Shortly after
'Ohris-tmas the 'bell formerly used by one
ot the volunteer fire companies, was missed
from the park and iCrooms was arrested.
He 'had sold the bell to 'Mr. Jake Hirsch,
the junk dealer, who paid $27 for it.
■Crooms defense was that he was given
the order signed by Mayor Price and that
he had taken i-t from the park and sold
it, not knowin gthat he was tsealing it or
that 'the order was a forgery.

'Dover, Eng., March IS.—The United

The Austrian Empress.
The old adage that a Christmas eve
child is born to sorrow is illustrated in
the case of the empress of Austria, who
was born on the 2-Ith of December, 1837.
The Duchess Elizabeth of Bavaria was
married to Francis Joseph of Austria at
the early age of 16, and v«'.s then con
sidered the loveliest woman in Europe.
She was not wt T received by the great
families of Austria, who thought that
the emperor should have chosen a bride
from a more famous house than a col
lateral branch of the Wittelsbachs of
Bavaria. The Hungarians, however,
went mad with enthusiasm over their
beautiful queen and throughout her
reign have remained her devoted slaves.
She was passionately fond of riding and
for long spent a portion of each year in
the hunting lieltls of England and Ire
land. The breakdown of her health
compelled her first to forego this pleas
ure, and then she was debarred from
fencing and even from her mountaineer
ing excursions. The unhappy marriage
of her only son and the ref usal of the
pope and the emperor to ( onsetit to his
divorce preyed upon her mind, and since
his tragic death years ago at Mayerling
she has led the life of a reel use.—San
