BEN JONES WANTS A FORMAL REPORT Thinks That Peddlers Are Standing Over-Time on the Cornere of City Streets—Detirea That the 8ubject Be Given Attention by tho Police. Whether one Walter Wllllame, a young negro, haa a great love for smoking cigars or desired to open a Htand for the sale of them. are two questions that are puzzling to Home of the police and Mrs. Sylvester, who runs a fruit and tobacco store on Mulberry street Just below the Lanier Hotel. Yesterday morning this negro was ar raigned before the rerorder of police court with a charge of larceny against him. The case Was tried and WiUiams committed to the county Jail. He Is still there. He was arrested on charges pre ferred against him by Mrs. Sylvester who claims that on two occasions he entered her store and befdre leaving helped himself to full boxes of clgurs. The first box that disappeared was missed soon after It had been taken. On the following day another box went, doubtless In the same way as did tho first. Monday morning the son of Mrs. Sylvester happened to see a negro In the front of the shop who was acting rather queerly. He watched a mlnutu and then, he states, saw the negro In the act of taking a box from a shelf. The boy called for help and his mother answered. She rushed to the front of the Store and told the mnn to stop. Then, as it Is stated, the negro called her a "damn liar" and broke Into a run from the store. The boy followed and the negro was arrested a few minute* later. In a signed communication to the police headquarters Alderman B. L. Jones, of the third ward, asks that a formal report be made of the officer whoso beat Is near Morgan’s drug store. In the letter Mr. Jones states that ho noticed a peddler standing near tho store for hours und knowing that such uctlon Is contrary to city ordinances he writes. Ten minutes Is the time alloted to a peddler to stand at one place. At the expiration of the tenth minute he is supposed to move. With the coming of Xmas the num her of peddlers hove Increased to i large extent and' the police will have their hands full noting the length of their stands. *' Of Interost to Mothers. Thousands of little ones die every year of croup. Most of them could have been saved by n few doses of Foley's Honey and Tar. and every family with children should keep It In the house. It contains no opiates and Is safe and sure. Mrs. George H. Picket. 8an Francisco, Cal., writes: "My baby had a dangerous attack of croup and we thought she would choke to death, but brie dose of Foley's Honey and Tar relieved her at once after other remedies had failed. We are never a minute without it in the house." Sold by H. J. laitnar & Qo., druggists. Macon warehousemen have their ware rooms, and in many Instances the streets on which they face, piled high with, thousands of bales of the fleecy staple. For weeks the receipts have greatly exceeded the shipments and with the prices standing as they are today such will likely continue to be the case for weeks, probably months, to come. Although the cotton merchants are anxiously awaiting break upwards in the prices a con tinuance of the present market for cotton would not hurt them badly, is the poor farmer who is getting the worst of the deal. The farmer who is well-to-do and who has a supply of baled cotton on hand Is holding It and will doubtless do so until the break for the good starts, whether it be in January next or In May. Speaking of the present conditions among the warehousemen and the farmers as well, Mr. W. O. Kinney, of the B. T. Adams Co... said yester day. "The poorer class of the farmers has been greatly hurt by the bearish movements and the country store keepers with whom they have been doing business during the summer likewise. The store-keepers were Injured to the extent that the farm ers, that is many of them, were un able to pay but n small amount of their debts. Bills that were contract ed during the winter and during the time the cotton was being made were expected to have been paid as soon as the cotton was sold. Then when It was sold the prices were so low that the poor planter was unable to meet but a portion of his obligations. This fact will doubtless have a bearing with the storemen next sping and should the price remain low It may be rather a difficult matter for large credit ac counts to be opened. "However It Is the general opinion that tho prices will go up Instead of either dropping further' or remaining at their present point. Some think that the prices will go up In January, others In April or possibly even later.” "Mr. Kinney also stated that no doubt the action taken by tho Nation al Cotton convention, now In session nt Shreveport. In reference to Its urg ing a curtailment In production of cotton and an Increased production of food supply crops would be fruitful. "The formers.” said Mr. Kinney, "no doubt ’smell a rat’ and will cut down their acreage of cotton next spring, and plant more corn or pota toes.” RECTOR OF 8T.
