Mexico will make a great exhibit at
the Cotton States Exposition. The
visit of Mr. C. H. Redding, the com¬
missioner of the Exposition company,
seems to have been already a success¬
ful one. President’ Diaz states that
he will make a good display of the re¬
sources of his republic.
The sixth annual session of the tri¬
state Medical Association of Georgia,
Alabama and Tennessee met in Atlan¬
ta, Tuesday. The association has been
organized something over five years,
and numbers among its members the
leading physicians of the three states
covered by its territory.
The dispensary commissioners of
Athens have decided to sell whisky by
the half pint hereafter. This change
was made after a careful consideration
of the question, believing that it would
lessen the consumption of whisky. The
new commissioners have decided to
sell some high grade whiskies at the
dispensary and also to fix up the prem¬
ises in better style.

The recent disastrous wreck on the
Atlanta and West Point road was much
worse than was indicated by first re¬
ports. Fifteen people were hurt, one
of whom is dead and one other person
may die. The nature of the wreck was
such that it is almost a miracle that
"there were so few of tho passengers in¬
jured. People who viewed the scene
declare it to be one of the worst wrecks
they have ever witnessed.

C eard from give majorities for
e amendment aggregating 21,427.
Twenty-four counties give majorities

fifty-two counties for the amendment

That farming in the sonth pays when
properly condncted is demonstrated by
the experience of a cotton factor in
Augusta, who during the past fifteen
years has made advances to and dealt
with over 3,000 planters, white and
black, educated and uneducated, in
fourteen counties of Georgia and six
of South Carolina. During this period
he has seen many hundreds of cases m
which a farmer would commence with¬
out a cent of cash, or any equipment,
hire an animal, rent a farm from some
land owner, and make enough the first
year to pay the rental and buy the an¬
imal, while in another year he could
buy another horse or mule, or make
the first cash payment upon the land,
«Dd within a few mcreyears would own
ell the land he wanted and be drawing
several hundred dollars a year in
profits .—Bainbridge Globe.

Oil In Georgia.
Colonel D. B. Dyer and Major
George T. Barnes, of Augusta, have
recently been on a prospecting tour in
Wilkes county that possibly means the
opening np of a new industry in that
section. For some time past these
gentlemen have been in communica¬
tion with parties in Wilkes regarding
the flow of petroleum that has been
discovered on Broad river in that
county. Tbe object of the trip was to
investigate this spring and Colonel
Dyer brought back specimens of oil
which he will have examined by Dr.
Beach man, of the chemical works.
Oil percolates slowly from pores of
large white rock and is of a slate color
which can easily be refined and bright¬
ened. An Augnsta syndicate has al¬
ready secured an option on the land
and final purchase depends on the
analysis of Dr. Beachman and farther
prospecting in the shape of a well that
will be bored within the next month.
On the aame tract of land is also a
splendid natural water power which
could easily be used for turning ma¬
chinery of an oil mill.

Sayings and Doings of the President
and Members of the Cabinet. »
Judge McComas, of the district su¬
preme court, Friday denied the appli¬
cation of the Miles Sugar Mnnufactur
ing Company, of Louisiana, for a man¬
damus to compel Secretary Carlisle to
appoint inspectors to ascertain the
sugar production of the company. The
object of the suit, it is Understood,
was to test the legality of the recent
repeal of the sugar bounty provision
of the McKinley law, and also to lay
the foundation for an appeal to con¬
gress for the payment of the bounty
for the current year.
The officials of the bureau of engrav¬
ing and printing express the* opinion
that the losses of postage stamps by
the thefts of Smith and his confeder¬
ates will not exceed $1,200 or $1,500.
Up to this time five postmasters in
different parts of the country have
made complaints of shortages iu the
invoices of stamps shipped them, but
in each case the loss was very sipall.
It is expected that by the middle of
the coming week they will have re¬
ceived? reports from all postmasters
whose shipments of stamps cpuld have
been tampered with.
The Souvenir Half Dollars.
The Chicago souvenir coin of the
great world’s fair is to become a cur¬
rent half dollar. It was at one time
supposed that these coins would com¬
mand fancy prices as souvenirs. This
expectation was not realized. The
whole issue authorized by congress
would have been turned over to the
world’s fair managers but for their vi¬
olation of the agreement, which was
made a condition of the gift in respect
to opening the fair on Sunday. Owing
to this breach of the agreement, $1,-
695,980 in souvenir halves remained in
the treasury at the close of the fair.
A demand having recently sprung up
for them at their face value, Secretary
Carlisle has issued an order to the
subtreasuries directing them to pay
ouj on demand the souvenir coins at
the same ratio as the legalized half
dollar of the United States, namely, at
par with gold.
Vincent Bounced.
8. 8. Vincent, United States mar¬
shal for the district of West Virginia,
at the request of the attorney-general,
has resigned and D. Garden has been
appointed to the vacancy. Mr. Vin¬
cent was appointed iu 1893.’ In Sep¬
tember last Vinocntsand several depu¬
ties were present at a political meet¬
ing at Wayne, W. Va. At the conclu¬
sion of the address, which did not
please him, Vincent arose to reply,
whereupon many of the andience left
the hall. This seemed to have an¬
gered Vincent and an altercation arose,
which culminated in an affray, during
which one man was killed and three
others wounded. The marshall and
his deputies were arrested and are un¬
der bond to await the action of the
grand jury. Complaints have been
made to the attorney general that
twico before Vincent or his deputies
bad been guilty of creating disturban¬
ces at political meetings at Blnefleld
and Huntington. «<•*"
Expenditures and Receipts.
Official figures obtained from the
treasury books show that up to last
Monday the expenditures for the fiscal
year have exceeded the receipts $9,-
500,000. For the corresponding pe¬
riod of 1893 the expenditures exceeded
the receipts $22,500,000. The annual
report of the commissioner of customs
to the secretary of the treasury con¬
tains the statement that the “under¬
mentioned districts and ports reported
no transactions” daring the fiscal
year ended Jane 30, 1894, In
the appended list are the follow¬
ing: Annapolis, Md.; Apalachicola,
Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Beanfort, 8. C.;

or fee compensation.
General Schofield’* Report.
Major General Schofield, general
in-chief ot the army, has made to the
secretary of war his report on tbe op¬
erations of the may during the past
year. The report is of peculiar that in¬
terest, both on aoeount of the fact
in it General Schofield, who has beat

death of General Sheridan,

fact that it is principally devoted to

MiftTjflEi-Sit Mr. Clark Secretary Carlisle
wrote to
stating that the connty commissioners
of Floyd county proposed to issue a
certain amount of county bonds, bar¬
ing a lew rate of interest, in denomi¬
nations of five, ten and twenty dollars.
One of the purposes in view'in issuing
these bonds was the intention of using
them the same as local currency. Mr.
Clark inquired whether such action
would conflict in any way with the
United States banking laws. Mr. Car¬
lisle referred the letter to Mr. Beeves,
who advised the secretary that no stat¬
ute of the United States prohibits the
issuance of county bonds in any de¬
nomination. According to Mr. Reeves
any connty has a right to issue bonds
when not in contravention to the con¬
stitution of the state. As to the state
bank tax of 1875, Mr. Reeves says that
the word “county” is not enumerated
among the corporations, persons, firm,
association, state bank or state banking
associations, and, therefore, county
bonds are not subject to the 10 per
cent tax.
TRADE TOPICS.
R. G. Dun & Co.’s Report of Business
for the Past Week.
R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of
trade says: Business is still waiting
for the development of retail trade.
There is a little better demand in some
industries, but not so good in others.
Wholesale dealers in nearly all branches
are halting because retail business does
not yet show distinctly what it is to be.
Lower prices for the great farm staples
and lower wages in sonje establishments
hinder purchases for consumption, while
political interest and uncertainty also
have some retarding influence. Mean¬
while large imports and small exports
of merchandise with inadequate employ¬
ment for money here are raising the
rates of foreign exchange, so that pos¬
sibilities of gold exports sometimes
affect the stock market. The halting
attitude for the money is disturbing to
those who have looked for continued
gain, though rightly considered it is
the natural consequence of conditions
which were to be expected at this season.
“Reports from the different cities
show, as they did a week ago, that
while' extreme low prices for cotton
and wheat are checking retail pur¬
chases iu the west and south, there is
nevertheless a gradual gain. Monetary
movements indicate that the expected
expansion of interior trade has not
been wholly realized, and the demand
for currency from this city has mate¬
rially slackened. The demand for
commercial loans is weaker, and 3 per
cent is quoted for prime four months'
paper. Foreign imports for two weeks
have been $6,900,000, of 56 per cent
larger than last year, while in exports
of domestio products a decrease of II
per cent appears for two weeks in Oc¬
tober. Tet custom receipts for the
two weeks are only $280,000 larger
than last year, and internal revenue
$1,280,000 smaller. records larger
“The iron industry a
production in September than in any
other month this year, but as prices
are gradually weakening because of in¬
sufficient demand for finished products,
some works are preparing to close or
shorten time.
The demand ?ot cotton goods has
materially slackened, and prices have
been irregular, although resumption
of work at Fall River and New Bed¬
ford with only five per cent lower wa¬
ges indicates confidence in the future.
The woolen mills still have numerous
belated orders for fall goods, but the
demand for spring does not increase,
though in nearly all the lower-priced
products domestic makers app a 1
to command most of the busin that
exists. /
“Failures tor the woek end!] Octo
ber 4th show liabilities of $1,714,276,
of which $805,885 are pf manufactur¬
ing and $892,391 are of trading con¬
cerns. The final report for Septem¬
ber shows liabilities of only $7,307,-
124, of which $3,264,373 are of manu¬
facturing and $3,710, 092 of trading
concerns. The failures of this week
have been 231 in the United States,
against 293 last year, and forty-three
in Canada, against forty-two last year.
HURRICANE IN NEW YORK.
Great Damage Results sad a Number
of lives Lost.
A New York special of Wednesday
says: The gulf storm which broke up¬
on this section shortly after midnight
has done great damage on sea and on
land. The tracks of the New Jersey
Southern railroad, between See Bright

covered with sand and washed up by
the waves.
The fishing smack Louise was driven
ashore at Highland Beach, and is a to¬
tal loss. Her crew of ten men was
taken off by the life saving crew.
At Sea Bright and vicinity, a number
of buildings were unroofed.
At Long Island City the big iron
tank belonging to the East River Gas
Company was blown down to within
five feet of its foundation. The tank was
