The class of 1885 of the University of
Georgia wiii hold its reunion on June 18.
at the university, and there is every pros
pect of there being a large attendance.
This class was to have had its reunion
five years after graduation, hut for some
reason this plan failed to .fulminate, and
it is. therefore, with particular pleasure
that the members are looking forward to
the meeting after so long a lapse of time.
Diligent effort has been made to reu di
each member of the class, either o grad
uate or matriculate, in order to hotify him
of such reunion. By reason, however
the varied changes It has been impossible
to reach all. but the membei of the <s
who have this reunion in • hargo will be
greatly pleased at the attendance of all
members.
Thursday afternoon dirt was broken for
• siding on the Central Railroad, two
miles east of Griffin. This is the first step
taken toward the erection of co ton mill
No. 5, which will Ik located cn B. N.
Be-row’s place just bey end the Spalding
mills. The parties interested in this ent r
prl-e have been work.ng quietly for some
time, and now have nil their plans per fect
ed and are going forwaid with the < on
etruction of th* mil! nt once. They have
ample capital and considerable experh i*-r
in the mill business and i' i3 a forgone
conclusion that this enterprise will achieve
the same measure of success that the olde.
mills have won. Work on the mill will be
begun in about two weeks, and j* is ex
pected that it will be in operation by the
first of next January.
One of the mest enthusiastic gatherings
ever in Troup county occurred it Ii-
Grange Saturday, when the farmers and
business men generally got together to
perfect a sub-organization of the state
•©elation of Georgia cotton growers. IT. s
ident Hat vie Jordan was present, and took
active interest in the meeting. Farmers,
bankers, merchants, ginners. cotton mil;
men and others came together on equal
ground, mutually agreeing to smih! six.el
der to shoulder in the movement to ob
tain better prices for the next ciop of
cotton. The gathering was a large and
representative one President Jordan was
Invited to deliver a talk on the business
features of the movement, to which he re
sponded in a short add re .-s, telling his u
dience that the keynote of the whole ti u
• tion was to secure statistical information
in regard to the crop during the hat vesting
time, set a fair and Just price on the sta
ple. and market slowly. Organization was
perfected amid great enthusiasm, and if
the people all over the Mate stand by the
association as firmly as those of this < aun

A heavy blow was experienced at Day
tona about noon on Friday. Ii came up
suddenly, and did considerable damage
to the North bridge, throwing down two
thirds of the south railing. The wind
blew with such force that the timbers
were carried over to the north side of the
bridge and into the river. The mail car
rier. who was going over at the time, had
a narrow escape from flying timber; his
wagon was blown against the railing, and
the mail bags hurled out on the bridge,

Escambia county will get nothing for

Escambia county should be reimbursed

Several schooners loaded with pines ar

W. N. Jackson sent one car to Balti
more. Several cars were sent out Satur
day. Thus far the pines have been pur

the North has been much better than
when consigned. Some of the buyers ore
preparing to leave Miami and spend the
rest of t he shipping season in the Indian
-river country. The growers are wen sat

their crops. Although the yield has been
less than expected, th* prices have more

day The result of the meeting was tlie
choice of the following officers: Chair
man. Frank Clark; secretary, Thomas P

Summers. The hard work that was done
by Frank Clark in the campaign preced
ing the primaries and hi.s aggressiveness
in urging the removal of the stale capital
to Jacksonville, and in declaring and ar
guing that it should be made an issue in

the first place in the delegation. The other

The ruins of the Cohen, Friedman & Cos.
stock at Tampa furnished a perfect cul
tures’ feast for the city’s scavengers Fri
day. Early in the morning the firm aban
doned all the stock it could not rescue
to the general public, and the colored
population descended in full force upon
the blackened ruins. Despite the terrific
heat of the flames, quite a large quan
tity of goods escaped practically uninjur
ed. Particularly was this the case where
goods were piled in heaps, as bolts *of
cloth, mattings, or even paper boxes con
taining cuffs and collars. Negroes bur
rowed under the blackened counters, and
from amid the cinders and charred wood
work. brought forth whole suits of cloth
ing. collars, cuffs, shoes and various
other articles of haberdashery. All
morning the crowd was working in the
ruins, only desisting at one time when
forcibly driven from the scene. They
were permitted to return again in the
afternoon, however, and men. women and
children of both colorV, alike, united in
picking up the blackened fragments. It
was a most amusing sight to see a black
skinned citizen soiling n now pair of duck
trousers in a vain elTort to rescue a 49-
cent shirt from under a mass of charred
clothing. _

Louisville Poker Game With an Ex
triiordlnnry Outcome.
From the. New Orleans Times-Dcmocrot.
“While 1 was in Louisville list week.’’
said ft New' Orleans sporting man the
other night. “I had my attention (ailed to
n massive old-fashioned ioker table whin
stands in one. corner of the lounglng-room
at a club much frequented by horsemen.
On the green baize cloth, nr oppoeire
sides, ore a number of curious little
stains, in which minute fragments of re l
sealing-wax can be seen on close Inspec
tion The table is never used for curd
playing at present, and the story told in ;
connection with it is really remarkable. I
One afternoon some right or nine yea is I
ngo, a party of four turfmen, all ot that
lime pretty well known in sporting cir
cles, started a game of p">ker in one of
the little back rooms of the club. Tlvw
rocked along for several hours without
doing much damage one way or the other v
when suddenly an exciting tussle began
over a Jack pot. In a few moments the
man who opened it dropped out. followed
by one of the others, leaving the remain
ing two players to fight for the spoils
One ©f them was a bookmaker from Chi
cago. and the other was a man from Syr-'
a■ use, N Y.. who used to he n partner
In a famous ‘art gallery’ bar. I don’t care
to identify them any closer than that.
The Chicago man began the trouble by
•ettlng SFO, which the New Yorker scw
and raised $25<V The hookmiker cam'
bock with a thousand, and when he count
ed out the money, ho noticed that he had
about exhausted his roll. ’That oversizes
me,’ said tho Pyracuse mon. ‘I haven’t
got a thousand or a quarter of it in my
leather, hut if you’d give me half an hour
to go out and rustle. I’ll stay with you
111 l the cows < ome home.’ Well, the prop
ocfiion, as the story goes, was accepted,
and the question then arose as to what
should be done in jhe meantime with the
two hands. 1* was finally suggested to
lav them face down on the table an.l
fasten them there with scaling wax. Tnb
idea seemed good and was adopted.
Scaled th** Cards Securely.
"A dob of melted wax was dropped
at the corners of each of the pasteboard,
ard both plovers stamped the seals witn
private marks. The New Yorker us*d
n cameo ring and the other slmplv made
an impression with his thumb. The money
°n the table was locked in the safe, end
both men thereupon rushed out ;o ?e-
Plenish. agreeing cn an hour’s limit.
Now comes the queer parr of the story.
The bookmaker went straight to a per
sonal friend, who was proprietor of a
erream big gambling hou.se. and horror,--,
ed $2,500. He started hack on a dead
run with the money in his hand, and
w-hi.e crossing th* street, wa.t knocked
down by a cob. On* of the front wheels
passed over his shoulder and he vv n
picked up unconscious and taken to 0

afterward the Syracuse man wos a.-.-i

sonic friends off Long I land. That left
things In a very peculiar situation. The
manager of the club wanted to ‘divide
the money in the safe between the two
estates, but the bookmaker'., brother who
was his executor, objected vigorous]? in
sistlng that the Inst bet had never' been
called and consequently. th New Vork-r
had lost. Then, the distiller, who had
agreed to'back hio Syracuse friend, offor
et, n, "ke tile ca.i good, and the two
original players who had dropped out and
who were still in the eily, began to
. ,-umor for the return of their money,
amounting to about SdO apiece, on The
ground that everything should be de
clared off on general principles. Alto
gether it was the worst mixed up affair
that ever happened.
■'Finally tho matter was left by agree
ment to n prominent Louisville ‘business
man who knew nothing uitout cards, bin
had a high reputation for honesty and
common sense. He d-ciared that 'lie two
players wiio had dropped- out had no
claim on the pot. and as nobody could
remember how the preliminary betting
had stood, that two-thirds of 'the lump
sum should go to the representatives of
the bookmaker and one third to tho es
tate of tho New Yorker. To prevent
endle.-s debates and squabbles in future
lie also directed that the cards should
be removed from The cloth, face down,
and destroyed without exposure. Those
instructions were carried out to the letter,
although it 'nearly broke the hearts of
numerous friends of both parties not to
get a look a< the two hands, -ffhe ends
were carefully detached, one by one. and
burned in the grate without being turned

Morning News Office, June 11.—All
tho markets were very quiet yester
day. Spirits turpentine scored another
drop of cent, bringing the price to 44*£
cents. Still this is just 8 cents above, the
price n year ago. which was not consider
ed bad at that time.
The indications are for some further de
clines. as the factors admit that the buy
ers are not disposed to relieve them of the
stocks on hand at present prices. At the
same time the lowering of the price will
have the effect of causing a more general
application of receipts to contracts, and
this will naturally result in stiffening the
market. With the good prices at which
contracts were sold, and the apparent de
crease in the output as compared with last
year, factors are. convinced that the fur
ther drop in the price of turpentine wiil
not be serious and that, in fact, it will
not be jo the intere?' of the buyets to have
prices go below contract figures.
The. feature of interest at the Cotton
Exchange was the. June cotton report of
the agricult lira 1 department. The very low
condition shown for June was. fully offset
by the increased so that there
was no decided effect upon the. market
either way. Th* - bulls pointed to the fact
that the porcerrage of increase in acreage
was largest in small oo tcn-grow.r.g states,
such as Virginia ar.d Missouri, and small
est in important states such as Texas.
The very low coniitions of the crop in
Texas was also by the bulls.
Tho increased of 2,036,000 acres
was sufficient for the purpose of the bears,
however.
There was a sharp increase in the price
of flour of 15 cents a barrel.
COTTON.
Ouis de cf the June report of the agri
cultural department, which furnished
s me f.-od for discussion, There was but
little interest in the cotton market yes
t:-rcay. Receipts were only 7 bales and
b’ t fir tie business was drrne. Go and mid
dl ng advanced and midd.ing 1-16, due
to sli ht demand for higher grades, but
tho market was only nominal.
The market was a remarkably quiet one
riming the entire day and it was gen
erally conceded by ho h factors and buy
ers that the bot'om has not yet been
reached The buyers xpect to get stuff
at lower pric r; end the indications are
• hat they will not he disappointed.
While /the receipts are not large
now as compared with last year the
fact that factors ore left with considerable
stuff on hand at the clo:-e of each day, is
not a favorable sign for present prices.
As matters row stand a largo portion of
he receipts is likely to be applied to con
tracts.

New York. June 11.—In some respects
♦ o-dny’s market was a peculiar affair, with
t rading dull nd active by turns, and sen
timent variable. The forenoon in partic
ular showed the tnlenW.as well as the spee
u’atlve public to be mote or less ip the
dark nnd unable to form positive opinions.
%-lue the most part, to uncertainty as to
the outcome of the noon government ciop
report. The market opened steady.with the
first sale of July showing a decline of 2
points, while the last sale on the call was
at an advance of 8 points; the other
months were frem 1 to C> points higher.
This advance was In opposition to the in
fluence at work, such as weak LiverpcoJ
cnb’cs anl bearish reports on the crop
and the weather conditions from the cot
ton belt.
It was seen that Liverpool this morning
had made but a feeble response to our
emphatic rise last week, while the English
markets were closed on account of holi
days. The foreign contingent also showed
n disposition to sell at the opening prices.
Before the close of the first hour the
market made a turn for the worse under
• change in the character of speculation
here and rumors that sentiment In New
Orleans was strongly bearish. However,
the crowd was disposed t> act with ex
tr me conservatism, pending knowledge
as to the bureau statement
The latter came to hand soon after noon
and was Immediately slzrd up as a bullish
argument. Prices advanced 4 to <1 points
on a light flurry of covering, and invest
ment. buying for the account of the cour
ageous bulls. The statement showed an

increase in acreage of 8.7 per cent, equal
to 2,036i)00 acres, making the total acreage
10.005.000 acres.
The crop conditions showed a decrease
of 3.2 per cant to 82.5. with Texas repo-ted
at 71. Nevertheless, the report failed to
stimulate bull enthusiasm, and by 12:30
o'clock shorts had regained confidence,
and were hammering the entire list in a ju
bilant manner. Prices began to crumble
and soon broke perpendicularly under a
spurt of active general selling in which
New Orleans was a prominent leader.
The weakness did not terminate until late
in the d3j\ when a scramble for profits
created some steadiness ar.d rallied pipes
several po.nts. During the rest of the ses
sion the market was feverish and rather
disposed to weakness.
The close was barely steady, with prices
6 to 15 points lower.

COTTON LETTERS.
New York. June 11— Hubbard Bros. &
Cos. say: Liverpool did not respond to the
improvement in the American markets as
sharply as expected. Our market opened
steady with buyers at a slight advance to
be met with an avalanche of outside sell
ing orders, which caused a sharp and
rapid decline. Evert the bureau report did
not cause more than a short rally at noon.
This failure to respond lo a condition of
82.,i per cent, was due to the large increase
in the acreage and the dry weather since
the report was issued In the Southwest.
The acreage is the largest ever given
while the condition is decidedly below the
average. Political conditions in China and
the distress in India appears to have more
effect in Liverpool than our advance of
Saturday.
New York. June 11— Murphy & Cos. say:
Cotton in Liverpool opened with an ad
vance of 2-32®3-32d on spots, middling ups
sd, sales 7,509. Futures improved l-64d
on old and about 3-64d on new crops, but
closed 5-64d up on former, and about 3*2
points on latter. Our market opened ir
regular at 3 to 7 points advance, ruled
feverish for a while, suddenly turned
downward on general selling, owing to
favorable weather in the cotton belt, and
by noon the net decline from highest to
day was 15 to 18 points on old crop and
about 10 points on the new. The bureau's
condition of 82.5 is very iow. (Texas only
71 against 9n last year) the lowest for pre
vious twenty years being 81 in the small
crop season of 1895. It makes the increase
in acreage 8.70. say 25,300,000, against 23.-
509.000 a year ago. The market will be
nervous until some improvement is shown.

New York. June 11 Afer a
day of great irregularity in the
movement of prices and an extremeiy nar
row interest in the marker prices ot
stocks, they closed generally lower and
on the down grade. There were one or two
periods of firmness and a few special feat
ures of strength, but practically all ihe
gains were wiped out. The market open
ed generally higher irf sympathy with a
better tone abroad. Estimates by arbi
trage houses of buying for London account
place the number of shares of the general
list at upwards of 20.000. Advamoge was
promptly taken of this London buying to
realize, and the level of the marker fell
below Saturday’s Missouri Pacific
ran off over a pc-lnt and the Grangers w?r?
under pressure on the ground cf continued
drouth in the Northwest, to whi .'a was
attributed t#** furiously active end excit
ed wheat market. Buying of Reading first
preferred nnd of Northern Paciflo' turn- J
the tide of prices upward again. The
trunk line railroad stocks, led by Balti
more and Ohio, showed some degree of
strength. The late reaction in the market
had its inception in Northern Pacific. The
stock fell away on the announcement that
the meeting to consider the rate of divi
dend which had been set for Wednesday,
bid been postponed to Friday >0 await
the arrival of an influential member cf the
voting trustees.
Baltimore and Ohio showed the closest
sympathy with Northern Pacific, on ac
count of Mr. Hill’s large influence in that
eomapny. The extreme decline in the two
stocks, was U 3 for Northern Pacific, and
I*4 for Baltimore and Ohio. The whole
market ran off and closed about steady,
but without afiv tendency to recovery.
Some of ihe streng'h of Americans in
London was due to a report that there
had been rains in the spring wheat belt,
but the Inter developments in the when
market, of course, counteracted this. The
principal influence in improvement of for
eign stocks was the more cheerful tone
of the Berlin market, and the belief th it
the crisis in money affairs there was
past. The strong return for the week of
the Imperial Bank of Germany empha
sized this feeling. But discount rates in
Berlin advanced again to-day, nnd in
New York. b:*h the sterling exchange
rate, and the rc.te on Beflin rose a frac
tion, notwithstanding the purchase here
of stocks for foreign account The la’e
weakness of the market was no doubt
partly due to the report which found cur
rency.near the close, ih a: gold to n con
siderable amount, will be shioped bv next
Thursday’s steamer from New York to
the continent.
The bond market was very dull, and
xvas inclined to be heavy, though there
were a few exceptions. Total sales, par
