2 HAS AN EFFECT ON TRADE. \E\V PL AC U AMONG THE N ATIONS INFLUENCES IHSINESS. • Bojcott In St. Loni, War In SontU Africa. DlKOvrry of Snn Spots and the Situation in Chinn All Have Effect—Wliat Dun's Weekly Re , lew Pays—Uncertainty Will C on tinue Till the Presidential Cam paijtn Is Over. jjew York. June 29.—R. G. Dun & Co's Weekly Review of Trade to-morrow will say: The country begins to feel some of the effects of its new place among the na tions. Influences affecting Us business during the week ranged al! the way from a boycott at St. Louis to a war in South Africa and from sun spots to the relief of Pekin. Drought and sun spots have played their parts before, but none con quite foresee all the results of defending American rights in China. Political In fluences all tend to color current opinion about most things in presidential years. All these and other influences work to gether to create a state of uncertainty un til the controversy is over. The long effort to hold nominal prices for iron at Pittsburg has ceased, and the associations now recognize an open mar ket In which Bessemer is offered at 519 aid billets at $26, with grey forge at sl7. Scarcely a single transaction is reported, buyers obslalning even more than when prices were purely nominal, and while there are many considerable contracts waiting for a safe basis in cost of male rial. the problem is a rather difficult one. Over thirty furnaces are said to have gone out of blast, and while some have Uen stopped for repairs, many more will ie idle for a time until wage scales for the coming year have been settled with la for organizations. With a proper adjust ment of supplies and prices to the actual demand, a heavy business is possible, but delay at this season may affect prosperity for some tlma 'o come. With steel plt.ies quoted at $i 3- at Pittsburg and nuimer J 7 sheets at 2.9 cents, no general gain in business results from the sudden decline. Neither official nor unofficial accounts have removed doubts about the wheat crop, ar.d if it proves as low as one esti mate. 460,000.000 bushels, the extent to which It may now be displaced in Euro pean consumption by corn will be serious ly Deled. Exports of whf at and corn were t29,C00,'00 bushels In IS9S, and 400,- 000 000 In 1899, and have been about 190.- ftao.ooo bushels of wheat, and 210.000,000 bushels of corn in the crop year 1900. but never as large before, for in 1592, when 2'5.C00C00 bushels of wheat went abroad, there wrre only 73.000.000 bushels of corn But all recent estimates of production have been so far distrusted, and it is scarcely good sense to base grave appre hension on any so early in date, and the census this year will be awaited with es pecial interest, because it will help to show how unworthy of reliance some es timates have be>n. In four weeks of June, Atlantic exports of wheat, flour included, have been 10 980 076 bushels aga'rrSt 8 91.- 638 last year, and Pacific exports 2,7:3,978 bushels against 2.445.749 last year, while corn exports In the four weeks have been 11,996,344 bushels against 11,485.596 last year. After rising four cents, wheat clos ed unchanged for the week, and corn only %c higher. The Fall River committee has made a sudden r action to 2.87 cents In the price of regu'ar print cloths, with not a single sale r corded. Nor arc new demands re por ed Important, but neither the sudden reduc'lrn in prints nor the quiet settling In prices of staple goods has stimulated the market to desired a-tivlty. Depression In the marke' for go ds did not prevent raw cotton from advanc ng to 10 c“nts Failures for the week have been 207 In the Unit and States, against 181 last year, and 21 In Canada, against 22 last year. HI HAL MAIL DELIVERY. Hirer Free Homer In Prospect In Laurrnr fount J-. Dublin, June 29.—1n a short time there may be three fre rural mail deliveries in Laurens county. Pome time since a peti tion was sent in for a free delivery in the northern portion of the county, and a special agent of the government started to Dublin to make an inspection of the route when he was taken ill and has not yet vlsit.d th s section. He is exnec el shortly and it has betn decided by the people to map out two o her routes for his inspection when he ccmes. It is be lieved that he will pass favorably upon all three routes as the sections through which they run are very thickly popu lated. The work of taking the census in this county will be finished Sa u day. It is be lieved that it will show ihat Laurens has a ropulat on of 25 000, or an Increase of more than 75 per cent. The increase in Dublin will b fu ly 300 per cent. The I.airrns County Teachers' Inst tute has been In s salon since Mo-day. Prof. George VV. Macon of Mercer University, Is present as expert. Last night the teach ers had an educational rally at the Court House which was a very enjoyable affair This morning the farmers of Laurens county met for the purpose of perfecting a sub-organization of the Cotton Growers' Protective Association. Postmaster Clark Grier has received no tice to attend a meeting of the Republi cans of Georgia at Atlanta, July 5, to as sist in the nomination of a full state tick et. Preparation* are being made for the en campment in this city of the First Battal ion of the Second Regiment,. The en campment will be formally opened July If. TO HAVE A PANTS FACTORY. A New Concern Is Vicing Organized *n Griffin. Griffin, Ga.. June 23—That Griffin will, In s few short years, rank among the larger cities in tho South us u manufactur ing center, there is no doubt. The latest thing on foot is a 510,000 pants factory, making all grades of pants and overalls. The movement was started by wide awake citizen yesterday morning, and $7,000 has been subscribed already. Some of the best financiers and business men of the city have subscribed liberally. The proposed factory will bo In operation by Oct. 1. It will give employment to fifty women operating fifty machines, and will have a capacity of sixty dozen pairs of pants each day. DIDN’T LIKE. HIS CROUD. A Veins Man Disappeared In Search of Heller Associate*. Valdosta, Oa., June 29.—Frank Brace well, a well known young man of this city, for several years employed by C. 5. Peeples in his store, has gone to parts unknown. He left a note saying that his associates here were not the kind that he deslrad. and he wanted to locate at some place where temptation lo do wrong would not be so strong. Mr. Bracewell was regarded as an excellent young man, end his departure caused a .enautlop. His accounts were straight, and It is be lieved that he honestly desired to get rid of some of his friends. He promised In his note to write when he settled. Pimples and Freckles on Face. Tour druggist will refund your money If Paso Ointment fails to cure you.

S., June 29.—For the first time a court in this state has recognized the validity of a divorce granted in an other state. There is much speculation as to whether the Supreme Court will sus tain the Circuit Court. In the Court of General Sessions for Lexington John B. Sharpe and Mrs. Maggie O'Brien were indicted for adultery. The indictment charged that “John B. Sharpe and Cyn thia L Sharpe were married in this state in 187 ft; that some five or six years ago the said Cynthia L. Sharpe left the said John B. Sharpe and removed to the state of Utah; that some time after she left this state John B. Sharpe removed to the state of Georgia and became a citizen of that state; that after Cynthia L. Sharpe had become a citizen of the state of Utah and had her domicile there, she institut ed an action for divorce in the Fourth Judicial Circuit of the county of Utah, state of Utah, against John B. Sharpe; that said Sharpe was duly served with process of said court and filed an answer in said cose; that said Judicial Court of the state of Utah, after a full hearing of said case, pronounced a decree absolute ly dissolving the marriage of said par ties, and releasing them from all the ob ligations thereof; that since that time the sold John B. Sharpe and Maggie O’Brien had married in the state of Georgia, and about one year ago returned to Lexington county. South Carolina, where they are now' living as man and wife." etc. Counsel moved to quash the indictment on the ground that the domicile of the wife was shown to be in the state of Utah and the court of that state could have full jurisdiction because in such a case the wife could have a separate dom icile under the principle* announced by the Supreme Court of the United States In the case of Cheever against Wilson, and that, the defendant having filed an answer to the proceedings in -that case, the decision of the court of Utah was binding on the court of this state, and the defendant could not be convicted of adultery. Judge Klugh held with this view and the indictment was quashed. Heretofore persons marrying in this state, divorced in another, remarrying and returning here have never been recognized as legally married. TRIED TO SAVE HIS SHEEP. Young "Hr. Griffin of Wilkes Loses His Life In Little River. Washington, Ga., June 29.—E. L. Griffin, a young man prominent in Southeast Wilkes, wns drowned yesterday. The. ac cident occurred on Little River, neur Smith's Mill. The high water had caught three or four mules and fifty-odd head of sheep belonging to young Griffin on an island. He rode down to the bank, and the mules swam over to him. He then got a boat and went over after the sheep. He carried over one boatload safe ly, but on returning for the second the boat was overturned and he lost his life in the swift current. His body has not yet been recovered. Bishop Keiley of Savannah will shortly visit Washington. He will be given a reception at the Hotel Fitzpat rick. so that he may have an opportunity of meeting the citizens. For the benefit of St. Joseph’s Orphan age an excursion will be run from Au gusta to Washington some time in July. They propose having u baseball game with the local team. It is said that the long-talked-of cotton factory died a natural death at the last meeting. It Is hoped i may yet be re vived.

Negro .Jutted Who Is Thought lo Have Burnett the Hnylow Station. Waycross. Ga . June 29.—A negro who gives his name us Henry James, has been placed in Jail here by D. M. Davidson, a detective. The negro udraitt that lie es caped from Sweat's convict camp. There is a suspicion that he was con nected with the burning of the railroad depot at Haylow Sunday night.

DEAF MITE AS A WITNESS. Au Expert in Finger Talk Couldn't Interpret for Him. Columbia. 8. C.. June 29.—The appear ance of a deaf mute as a material .vitness for the state in a murder trial in this city resulted in the temporary confusion of the court, but ihe witness finally came out on top and his evidence bad much weight with the Jury and was chiefly responsible for the verdict of manslaughter. When the witness, who was* a negro, took the stand the state had an expert in sign languages sworn as interpreter. But the interpreter was mystified by the first flutter of fingers hands made by the witness. lie tried to talk to the deaf mute, but the man spoke a foreign lan guage. his signs and signals* the inter preter had never seen before, and he was forced to acknowledge to the court that he could do nothing in this case. The solicitor declared he had to have the testimony of the deaf mute. The op posing counsel did not see how it v'ouli be obtained. He objected to delay to hunt lor another expert. Counsel objected to the proposition of the. state solicitor that questions be put and answered in writing, on the ground that the wl ness seemed to be a man of low r intelligence, and, while he mignt comprehend the meaning of rome of the words, his answers might not be complete and, thereby do injustice to the defendant. After considerable debating the judge decided to make the queries In writing and he would decide ns to the in telligence of the answers. This was found to work satisfactorily, the witness displ.ty ing marked aptness and intelligence. HAD \ BEAR HINT. Madison County People Killed a Larftf Black One. Valdosta. Ga., June 29. —A large black bear was killed by a crowd of hunters in Madison county, Florida, yesterday. The bear was found near Hanson, and all of the dogs in that neighborhood were put upon its track. All of the people also turned out. and nearly a hundred were in the chase. Col. J. M. Wilkinson and a party of surveyors on the Valdosta Southern road heard the crowd coming and saw' the bear making its way to the. swamp. When the animal saw them, however, ii climbed a tree and straddled a limb far above the ground. It was shot a number of times, but remained suspended even after its death. The tree had to be cut down to get the body. Thm was the first bear seen in that section in many years. DEATHS. WEST.—Died, at Eureka Springs, Ark., June 29. 1900, Mr. Charles N. West.

There is but one cardinal reason; The ■Water Is a natural diuretic. Get hold of , that phrase in Its full meaning, if you please. Turn to Abernethy. "Nature's way of cure of disease Is by free diuresis." And Avenbrugger: "Nature cares for the kidneys. That is health." And Bichat: "Health is impossible if ihe diuretics be neglected Put It in this way: The Water has a selective action on the kidneys. The ex- ; cretion of the solid matters—the urea, j uric acid, end extractive matters—is in creased by it. In other words, it causes the elimination of the products of the increased metamorphosis of tissue. And yet, notice that this is done without any impairment of the Quality of the blood, or 1 any lowering of the forces of the organ- ! ism. It is betfer that patients go to the Spring to take the Water,, for the reason that the psychic influences of change of scene, as sociations and climate arc very large fac *ors concerned in the results of treatment. Go to the Spring, if you can. It means much more than you can dreom of. You want the Water as Nature hands it forth. But If you cannot go for any reason, you may rest assured that it Is the same Water, whether taken at the Spring or hundreds of miles from there, and that the results arc ihe same wherever it is taken. There are two or three points to be not ed. Suwanee Water Is prompt in its action. It acts the same day that it is taken. The effecs are immediate. The effects are continuous. That is. the results, which are early accomplished, are continued. For descriptive pamphlets * w ith testi monials address SUWANEE SPRING CO.. Suwanee Fla.
