the greatest Importance to grower
and spinner alike will bo taken up for
discussion and action, and It is 'hop
ed that this meeting will result in a
better understanding between the
men who produce cotton and those
who weave the staple into fabrics.
That this will result was indicated
by the talk of many of the delgeates
after the addresses at today’s ses
sion, In which the great losses

handling nnd shipping the raw pro
duct were shown and the great sav

113 FORSYTH ST,
when ready to build
Ten hundred and ten bales cotton l
were poured Into Amerlcus ware-1
houses Saturday and the day went
upon the record as the "banner" ono
of the season from the standpoint of
receipts. Several times recently the
dally receipts exceeded 800 bales, apd
once went the 900 spot, but not un
til yesterday was the thousand mark
exceeded. And a trade carnival of
extraordinary proportion resulted. The I
greater portion of these 1,010 bales
was sold at eleven cents or there
about, with 11 1-4 cents for the finer
grades, and thousands of dollars were
thus turned into channels of trade in
Amerlcus. Merchants declared last
night that the day was more like a
Chritmas eve holiday than anything it
might be compared with, and all were
delighted with the magnificent cash
business. Yesterday's receipts of
1,010 bales gives Amerlcus a grand
total of 13,111 bales wagon cotton to
date or nearly 700 bales In excess
of receipts at this date last season.

Tho lifeless body of Henry Os
borne, shot through and through, was
lying yesterday morning at a color
ed church a few miles east of Am
erlcus. The killing of Osborne 4«
charged to unknown parties, and ap
pears to bo an atrocious crime. With
other negroes Osborne was In attend
ance upon services there the night be
fore, when a fusllade of pistol shots
was fired among them from the out
side, either by parties passing the
church or concealed near at hand.
One of the leaden missiles struck Os
borne, killing him instantly, while
the other negroes fled the building in
wild disorder. Osborne was an In
dustrious, Inoffensive negro employed
upon a plantation near the church.
Under the circumstances the unwar
ranted killing should be fully and
thoroughly investigated, and this will
doubtless be done.
