N<mv IlnirlaiKl Cotton Men Want National Idibor I.iw Cmiuteil. It is announced at Fall River, Mass., that all but one or possibly two cotton manufacturing corporations have sign¬ ed an agreement to abide by the re¬ commendations of a special committee of the Manufacturers’ Association which has been appointed to take some steps for an improvement iu tho condition of (lie local cotton industry. It is expected that a shut down or a decided reduction of wages will bo ad- vised. Some manufacturers are op- posqd to a shut down, urging that it will hot improve affairs. They, point out that.Fall River no longer y4utrols the markets and that it would simply allow millsiu other states to meet the improved demand by running over¬ time. This is particularly possible in tho south, and the only remedy is believed to bo in securing a national law gov¬ erning hours of labor.

Five of these were pronounced while ns wrapper by the nppi aiser, Major Linek thought all of them should have been classed as wrapper, He accordingly sent these samples tc New York, where ten of them were classed as wrapper, They were then sent to New Orleans and received the information that all were filler. The New Orleans classification would have collected $546 duty. Tampa's collec¬ tion would have been $1,446, while that of New York would have amount¬ ed to $2,546; hut if the matter had been left to Major Linck he would have assessed $ 2,886 duty on that small lot of tobacco. A meeting of the appraisers of this country assembled in New York last F riday ns a result of this instance, to establish a uniform classification of tobacco at all ports of entry in this country. The manufacturers have employed the ablest lawyers in the country to look out for their interests, which is not the interest of the gov¬ ernment or the tobacco growers of this country. They wish to secure a liberal classification for themselves, and wish also to have the ruling of the secretary of the treasury modified like¬ wise in their favor. The board of trade of Bartow, Polk county, Florida, which is a great to¬ bacco growing center, realizing that the growers were doing nothing for their own protection, and appreciating the fact that the influence of the im¬ porters is a mighty power, called a meeting of their organization Friday night and passed the following resolu¬ tions. « ( Whereas, the tobacco growing in¬ dustry in this state promises to be im¬ portant in its development, and xvhere- is, to grow tobacco profitably it is essential that the duties on imported tobacco he honestly collected, there¬ fore be it “Resolved, That the Bartow board of trade hereby wholly and unreservedly indorses the recent rulings of the sec¬ retary of the treasury as to the tariff and classification on imported tobacco, knowing it to be in the interest of the growers of this country. “Resolved, further, That copies of this resolution lie forwarded to the secretary of the treasury, our senators and congressmen, and that the state press, boards of trade, • tobacco asso¬ ciations, county commissioners, city councils and al! organizations interest¬ ed in the future cf our state be urged to take similar and speedy action, in¬ sisting that the secretary of the treas¬ ury adhere to his rulings, which are just and righteous.” This is considered to be the proper step to take, and it is hoped that the tobacco growers of every state in the union will co-operate in the movement which is designed for mutual protec¬ tion. It is believed that the success of domestic cigar leaf hinges upon this movement. WILL ARBITRATE. The Threatened I’tg Strike In England I* Averted.

Dr. O. M.

There recently arrived at Liverpool the steamer Latona, whose captain re¬ ports a remarkable occurrence in the neighborhood of Demerara. His ves¬ sel, which was going along smoothly, suddenly stopped. An examination of j the screw propeller showed that a big fish had been caught in the aperture The j I in which the propeller worked, creature stuck out at each side at least twenty-five feet in length. Captain i Gardener states dashing that it the lashed its in tail all j | tremendously, spray directions, so that all attempts to get) a rope around it proved abortive. An attempt was made to cut the creature j in two with a sharpened spade affixed to the end of a kPar, but owing to the rolling of the vessel this also failed. At length the captain ordered the engi- neer to set the propeller going slowly to and fro. This he did, and at each movement of the screw a noise like the rending of stout canvas was heard. The great fish was in effect being liter¬ ally sliced up, a great piece being taken off it as each blade came around. After this had gone on for some mo¬ ments the engines were put on full steam and for a moment all round the stern bits of fish were flying in the air. At last the screw became free, and the last remnant of the great fish fell into the sea. Captain Gardener declares the belief that the fish was a small whale, perhaps what is called a grampus. The Queen’s Jaegers, Besides her Scotch, English and In¬ dian male servants, the Queen has a couple of German attendants who go by the name of Jaeger, and who at¬ tend her Majesty wherever she goes. When in full dress they are garbed in the most magnificent plumed hats, green coats with gold embroideries, and a short sword, or rather hunting knife, the hilt o’ "'hich is gold-mount¬ ed buckhorn. These German Jaegers were intro¬ duced by the Prince Consort, for in Germany, not only every royal per¬ sonage, but, moreover, every, good nobleman or ambassador has his spe¬ cial body Jaeger. The Prince of Wales’ Jaeger, for instance, invariably at¬ tends his royal master at all the din¬ ners at which the Prince may be pres¬ ent. He stands behind the Prince’s chair, arrayed in a scariet coat, and the dishes with which the Prince is to be served are invariably handed to the Jaeger to place before His Royal High¬ ness. None of the ordinary servants of the establishment are permitted to serve the Prince himself. A Good Honest Doubter is a person we like to meet. We like to have siu li a man try Tetterine.
