Carey. Wyoming, Manderson, Nebraska*
Chandler. N. H , Quay, Pennsylvania,
Fan Inner' W. Virginia Ransom, N. C.,
Galiinger. N. H., Squire, Washington,
Hunton, Virginia, Turpie, Indiana.
In all. 10.
There are three vacant seats.
THE DOUBTFUL ONES.
Of the doubtful ones, it may be said:
The terms of two of them, Messrs. Carey
and Manderson, expire March 4,189 g.
Messrs. Galiinger and Chandler are at
heart opposed to repeal, and they do not
want to vote for it.
Messrs. Faulkner and Squire have of
fered substitutes which antagonize the
repeal bill.
Messrs. Hunton and Ransom are proba
bly against repeal, but will not filibuster.
Mr. Quay is very likely to follow Mr.
Cameron. Mr. Turpie is shaky.
Of those who are for unconditional re
peal, it may be said that the following are
In no hurry, and would be just as well
pleased not to vote at all: Messrs,
Davis, Frye, Hill, Mills and Washburn.
The above may be relied on as a correct
statement of the status of the senators as
near as it is possible to get it. The
reader may figure on it and make any
such calculations as he chooses.
SCRIPT CERTIFICATES.
It is stated at the treasury that the pre
cautionary circular sent out therefrom
some weeks ago in regard to scrip certi
ficates issued by banks, had the desired
effect, and there is evidence that all such
certificates, of any kind whatsoever, have
been called in by the banks that issued
them. There is no disposition on the part
of the treasury officials to encourage pro
secutions, or to levy the ten per cent, tnx,
even where the law has been technically
violated. It is believed that the treasury
officials appreciate fully the reasons that
caused the issue of those certificates, and
do not regard the banks as having in
tentionally done wrong. Therefore it is
not likely that any proceedings will be
had against them. The issue has ceased,
under the warning given by the treasury,
and that is probaby all that was intend
ed.
A NEW PRINTING OFFICE.
The House committee on public build
ings and grounds is supposed to be favor
able to the erection of anew government
printing office. There ought to be a now
one. The present building is not large
enough, and is otherwise unfitted for the
immense business it does. Besides it is
considered by many to be unsafe, and
there are not a few who fear that in it
may be a repetition of the Ford's theater
disaster.
ftOBUAN SEEKING A COMPRO
MISE.
Randall Given a Clerkship—A Sub-
Treasury for Georgia.
Washington, Sept. 30.—There seems to
be no doubt now that Senator Gorman is
attempting to bring about a compromise.
Senator Voorhees, as chairman of the
committee which reported the other, can
not possibly take the stand that he wants
a compromise.
Senator Blackburn of Kentucky who
has been away for the past week, re
turned this morning and was at once ap
proached by Mr. Gorman who said that
he wanted a conference with him upon
the purposed compromise. Mr. Cleveland
has given no one authority yet to say that
he would consent to a compromise in any
■way, but it is believed now that he will
be forced to yield to the inevitable.
RANDALL GIVEN A CLERKSHIP.
James R. Randall, of Augusta, was to
day appointed to a $1,200 place under the
Senate organization. Mr. Randall will
continue to act as correspondent for sev
eral southern papers.
The LaGrange postmastership fight has
been finally settled and the opposition of
outside representatives was overruled by
Postmaster General Bissell, and Moses
R. Kirby was appointed to-day. C. N.
Mcßride was appointed posmaster at
Tallapoosa.
A SUB-TREASURT FOR GEORGIA.
Speaker Crisp and Representative Liv
ingston called on Secretary Carlisle this
morning to recommend Atlanta for a sub
treasury point. Mr. Carlisle,,while mak
ing no promises, said there'sbould be a
Bub-treasur.v in Georgia or Alabama and
he was inclined to think Atlanta was the
place for it.
Representative McLaurin of South
Carolina talked at considerable length to
day upon his scheme for the issuing of
$125,000,000 treasury notes. Ho says this
is only $100,000,000 in excess of what the
law now authorizes.
A MARSHAL IN A CELL.
He Is Charged With a Criminal As
sault on a Negro Girl.
Albany, Ga., Sept. 30. Ex-Marshal
Dillard of Acree is in jail in this city on a
Berious char ge—that of rajie.
Dillard was arrested on a warrant
sworn out by a negro named John Creer,
the step-father of the negro girl who is
alleged to have been the victim.
Greer charges that Dillard and a com
panion named Hemphill went to the home
of the girl, and by representing them
fcelves as officers placed her under arrest
and took her to a secluded place, where
it is claimed the crime was committed.
Hemphill was arrested also, but subse
quently was released at the request of the
prosecution.
Dillard s guilt or iuno ence will be de
termined next week, at which time the
•upenor court sits in this county
TO SUPPRESS LYNCHINOS.
A District Convention for That Pur
pose Well Attended.
Waycross, Ga , Sept. 30.—The distriet
convention of the association for the sup
pression of outrages and lynchings. was
held by representative colored citizens of
this and adjoining counties yesterday.
Die meeting was fairly well attended,
considering the brief notice on which it
was gotten up. \V. W. Watson of Pierce
county, was made chairman, and G. H.
Bowen of Waycross, secretary. Delegates
were present from Ware, Pierce, Lowndes
and Clinch counties. Earnest addresses
were made by the delegates and officers of
the convention.
The following committees were appoint
ed: A committee of seven. Rev. John
Watts, chairman, to prepare and issue a
call for the state meeting, which will be
held at Macon, Ga., Oct. 12; a a commit
tee of five, W. W. Watson, chairman, to
wait upon the officials of the railroads of
the state, with the request that delegates
to the state convention, be favored with
reduced rates; a committee of four, Rev.
F. Snelson, chairman on finance. Rev.
A. Samuel, was elected treasurer of the
association. It was decided that there
be twice as many delegates from each
county as there are representatives from
the same in the legislature. The commit
tees are now performing their respective
duties and the state convention will be a
success. Great interest was taken in the
meeting.
WIDEMAN SURRENDERS.
He is Willing to Return to Mieanopy
if Guaranteed Protection.
Ocala, Fla., Sept. 30.—Sheriff
Hillery of Alachua county tele
graphed Sheriff Hodges of Marion county
to-day that Attorney Wideman had
placed himself under his protection, but
Wideman was willing to be sent to
Mieanopy providing Sheriff Hodges would
guarantee him protection. Sheriff
Hodges ordered Hillery to hold
Wideman for a few days.
Sheriff Hodges returned this evening
from Duputy Benioker’s funeral and
says that the people of Flora ington are
very outs|iokeii about Attorney Wide
mun’s connection with the Ed Dansy
case, which resulted in Benlcker’s death,
and while they do not promise to take
the law in their hands, will see that lie
shall have an impartial trial, but if guil
ty to see that the law shall punish him.
All kinds of rumors were rife to-day
about Wideman. One report was that
after the deputy had rearrest
od him yesterday and brought him to
Payne’s residence, quite a crowd as
sembled and carried him off. There was
no truth in the stories.

ERIN’S FLAG HAULED DOWN.
It Was Run Up at the Fair Grounds in
Honor of Irish Day.
Chicago, Sept. 30.—The Irish flag was
hauled down from the Electricity build
ing on the world’s fair grounds this morn
ing by James Hunt, one of Col. Millet's
men. Col. Millet has charge of the na
tional colors at the exposition. Col.
Millet explained that no flags were run
up at the exposition whoso nation was
not recognized as a nation. He said it
would bo fully as appropriate to flaunt an
anarchist flag as that of Ireland. ’The
Irish flag has been used for decorative
purposes,” said Col. Millet, “but it has
never been hoisted on any of the flag
staffs. This department will not put up
the flag unless it is ordered to do so by the
exposition officials.”
Chief Barrett of'the department of elec
tricity was a very indignant man. "I
ordered my men to run up the' flag,” said
he, “In honor of Irish day. We have so
many Irish American citizens here, 1
thought it was nothing more than cour
teous that this recognition of their colors
be given them.” q
A MARSHAL USED UP.
He Attacked a Man With a Pistol and
a Knife But Was Worsted.
St. Augustine, Fla., Sept. :10.—James
IT. Weideman, town marshal of New
Augustine, sought ex-Poticeman Charles
Benet here last night for a fight. Benet
knocked a pistol out of his hand and
then gave him a sound beating. Weide
man returned and made an attack with a
knife, inflicting serious cuts aud stabs on
the throat, face, arms and stomach of
Benet. Notwithstanding Benet gave
him another sound thrashing. Beuet’s
wounds are considered dangerous. Weide
man was lined in police court this morn
ing and was also bound over for the grand
jury.
Sir Charles Bowen, who succeeds Lord
Hannen as a Lord of Appeal, has been a per

SHEPPERSOX OX COTTIIN
The Date of the First Frost Will
Make a Big Difference.
If It Comes Late the Yield Will be
Several Hundred Thousand Bales
Larger Than If Jack Puts in His
Appearance Early The General Con
ditions Affecting the Crop During
the Growing Season Unfavorable.
New York, Sept. 30.—Alfred B. Shep
persoti, author of Cotton Facts, has fur
ntshed the Southern Associated Press
with the following opinion as to this
year’s cotton crop. Mr. Shepperson is
neither a buyer or seller of cotton, but
possesses unusually good facilities for ac
curate information, covering the entire
cotton belt. He said: While in many
sections the crop plant has matured so
large a proportion of its fruitage
that the yield would not be appreciably
increased by delay of frost, there is a
great deal of fertile bottom land upon
which the plant will continue to make
and mature fruit until killed by a severe
frost. No frosts have yet occurred in the
cotton belt. Estimates at this time of
the probable size of the cotton crop are
therefore necessarily based upon the oc
currence of a general killing frost
throughout the south at about the usual
or average dates.
WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.
Should these frosts be delayed later
than usual, the crop will easily exceed
any present estimate by several hundred
thousand bales, while if they occur
earlier than usual, the crop will be far
below the estimate. The acreage is cal
culated by the department of agriculture
as practically the same as last
season. The general conditions af
fecting the crop have been unfavor
able. A late and cold spring
followed by protracted drought in Texas
are resulting in poor stands, with consid
erable replanting and some abandonment
of acreage. Excess of rain and severe
storms in the Atlantic states, with
drought again in other sections, and
serious damage by worms in the gulf
states, are the features of tiie season.
These things are not the usual indications
of a good crop.
6,800,000 BALES EXPECTED.
Assuming that general killing frosts
will occur at about the usual time, ray
advices indicate a probable yield of about
0,800,000 bales. The frosts last fall were
earlier than for several years and seri
ously curtailed the crop. For several sea
sons large quantities of cotton have been
marketed with each crop vviiii n has grown
in preceding crops. This old cotton has
now about all been marketed, and It is
probable that the commercial crop of this
year will not differ appreciably from the
actual yield. I estimate the actual yield
of cottou last season at only 6,400,000
bales. The difference between that and
the commercial crop was made up from
the previous crop. Compared with last
season's yield the present indications
point to the following gains, viz: 360,000
bales in Alabama, Mississippi and
Louisiana, being 20 per cent;
200,000 bales in Arkansas, be
ing 33 per cent; 240,020 bales
in the two Carolinas, Georgia and Florida
being 15 per cent. The total of the gains
is 800,000 bales. The yield in Texas I es
timated at 1,750,000 bales, being a loss of
40,000 bales. This deducted from the esti
mated gains will leave a net gain of 400,-
000 bales upon last year's yield of 0,400,-
noo. Tennessee will probably make about
the same crop as last season.
Some of my correspondents whoso fa
cilities for obtaining information are ex
cellent, and whose standing is of the high
est, do not think the gain in Alabama,
Mississippi and Louisiana will be over 10
per cent., ami the gain in the Carolinas
over 10 per cent., while I am informed
that the commissioner of agriculture of
Georgia estima ,es that the yield of Geor
gia will not exceed that of last year.
RECEIPTS AT THE PORTS.
The receipts at the ports for the week
just ended were 20.000 bales more than
for the corresponding weSk last year, and
it is probable that this week’s receipts
will be liberal. Early receipts are no in
dication of the extent of tbs crop, for a
small crop may mature quickly and be
promptly marketed.
The visible supply of cotton in the
world, which means the stock outside of
the mills, is about 400.000 bales less than
a year ago. The stock held by European
and American spinners is far below last
year, while the consumption in Europe is
as great as sit this time last year, and
many British mills have made contracts
for their entire product for several
months ahead. Owing to the financial
trouble, our own spinners are buying
very sparingly.
EUROPE’S VIEWS OF TIIE MARKET.
European views of the market are
based upon an American crop of 7,500,000
bales or more. The Liverpool price to
day is four and a half pence for middling,
being one-fourth of a penny higher than
this day last year. Liverpool
merchants of standing think that
an American crop of 7,250,000
bales would easily be worth 5 pence in
that market. In this opinion one of our
oldest and most esteemed merchants con
curs, and T not only agreo with him. but
think the resulting speculative purchases
might easily carry the price a half penny
higher. In the matter of cotton
prices. New York follows Liverpool
and sets the gait for all American
markets. Much interest is felt in the
report of the condition of the eotton crop
on Oct. 1 to be issued by the department
of agriculture. White I have not even an
acquaintance with the statistician who
makes up the department report of the
crops, lam satisfied the October report
will show a lower coadition of the crop
thou any October crop report since 1883.
