On Committee of Revision, of the New York Cotton Exchange. Him. D.D.. In c tua sermon at U. Edward H. Inman, of Inman, Alters & Inman, hoa been named as one of the seventeen members of tbe commit tee on revision of the New York Cot ton Exchange. In view of tbe fact that thl* committee establishes the difference! in value of ail the grades of cotton as related to middlng cot ton handled on tbe New York Ex change, and determines whloh shall constitute the rates at which grades other than middling may be delivered on contract, tbe Importance of the ap pointment Is considerable. Associated with Mr. Inman on this committee are the following roproson tatlve Southern cotton men: General William W. Gordon, of Sa vannah, Ga.; John H. Rogers, of Rog ers, McCabe * Co., Norfolk, Va.; Charles F. Farnsworth, of Memphis, Tenn., and David R. Francis, the well-known financier of SL Louis. Among the other members of the committee are J. Temple Gwathmey and Robert H. Roundtree, who, though living In New York, are recognised as representative Southerners; George H. McFadden, of Philadelphia, the leading cotton merchant; S. D. Bush, of Bos ton, who is recognised as closely con nected with tbe spinning Interests of New England, and Ellas Tuttle, of Fall River, Mass., a cotton merchant of high standing In the Fall River market. Much of tbe criticism against the contract of tbe New York Exchange has been attributed to the work of the former committee on revision, and the constitution of the new committee makes It clear to the public generally that the board of managers has been perfectly willing to leave the ques tion of revision to a committee to a largo extent made up of those who have In tbe past criticised what has been done. During the fourth tveek of their stay In Atlanta the Fawcett Stock Company will be seen at the Grand In "The Cow boy and the Lady," a delightful West ern play by Clyde Fitch. It la one of the beet of this author's popular plays, and is well remembered In Atlanta on account of the excellent presentation here by Nat Goodwin and hla hand some wife, when they were starring *—ether. he ecenes of this play are laid In the West, where the breezy atmos phere of the plains Is transferred to the stage by the crisp sentences, snap py situations and laughable climaxes which follow In quick succession and give a vivid Impression of the rapid life of the great West. The etory of the play Is about as fol lows: "Teddy” North Is an Eastern college athlete, who has come West to live. By reason of his Eastern ways and queer dress, he comes to be known as the "Dude Overseer" on the ranch at which he Is employed. He is taunted as sucli, and In the first act whips a big cow boy for bis taunts. Chief among’those who tease him is Mrs. Weston, an Eastern woman, who Is married to a blackguard and who is desperately loved by "Teddy” North, who Is only prevented from dodarlng himself by his high sense of honor. .Mrs. Weston gives a big dance at Sitvervllle at a hall operated by Molly Larkins. A half-breed Indian, Quick Foot Jim, Is In love with her. Weston mokes love to her and they are about to elope, when the half-breed slips Into the room, turns out the light and In the dark kills Weston. As the shot Is fired Mrs. Weston and Teddy North each enter the darkened room, and when the lights are flashed on each sees the oth er there and believes that the other has killed Weston. Each wants to save tho other and North takes the blame to spare Mrs. Weston, whom he loves de votedly. The company has been augmented by the arrival of Miss Jane Wheatley, the new leading woman, who will take the role of Mrs. Weston, formerly han dled by Miss Maxine Elliott. Regan Hughston Is seen to an advantage In the role of "Teddy” North. Phyllis Sherwood Is given an opportunity to show her versatility in the part of Midge, the mountain waif. Allen Faw cett returns to the cast this week as Joo, a cowboy. Frank Craven Is In a cowboy role as Dave, while Burr Ca- ruth forms the third of the trio os Pete. DeWltt Jennings, whose character work has won for him an enviable rep utatlon, will be cast for the Indian role ' * ck Foot Jim, while Brandon will take the part of Bill Ran som, a friend of Weston, taken by George Schrader. Miss Ethel Conroy Is cast for MoUle Larkins, while Miss Sherwood will essay the role of Miss Louise Prisms, the pianist at the dance hall. Mias Young and Miss Mattlson complete the extra large cast.

It has been s weather market, and as ths weather has been favorable during the week a sharp de cline has resulted. Ths bears have grown mors confident and have been free sellers of tho new crop months. Their ssTee er e welcomed by ths bulls, who apparently have not opposed n decline, which makes for more profitable bull operations later on. when It dawns on ths trade that the jfrowlng crop has several critical mouths ahead to pass through before entirely out of dangsr. rsrorabls weather will Improve the S tton left standing attar ths frosts, cold weather and washing rains of April and ay, bat will not bring to life tho cotton killed liy tbe cold weather, nor fill the non canned by the washing rains. Idas] weather, however, will bring to life the boll weevil, end It Is s well known feet among tbe fanners In the Infected district that s backward crop Is attacked more vigorously by these pests than s crop that hta had the advantage of an early start. An estimate of the crop for ths season of 1997-08 mads Its apiwarance during the week. It Is apparently a ridiculously low estimate, but baa hern rnrefully fig ured by one of the licit posted cotton men In the trade, besed ou tbe guvrrninenUa acreage and condition report of May 2, compared with the aame month's report In provloiio yenrs. It ao happens that the estimate Is from sn operator at present aligned With the bull aids speculatively, which. It Is contended by the lienra, makes It a one-alded document, Intended alone to Influence prices In hla favor: therefore It la an uudereatlmate. If he has notondereatlmatad the growing orop by at least 2.000.000 bales-lt Is slightly under 10,000,000 hales—than the cotton world Is facing s calamity. Tha extensive preparations—building new mills and Inereaalng the capac ity of old once—by foreign and domestic spinners to meet the ever-taereMlnc de mand for manufactured goods will be forced to curtail consumption tu meet the ■ mull supply of the raw material.

SHIPS DESTROYED IN MIMIC WAR New York, June 16.—The battle ships Connecticut and Alabama, under command of Rear Admiral Evans, were "destroyed" while passing through the narrows on their way from the James town exposition to the New York navy yards. Admiral Evans, who evidently had not been apprised of the war game which has been going on at the Nar rows for a week past, was a much amazed man at the sudden roar of the guns at Forts Hamilton and Wads worth. He rushed to the bridge of the Connecticut and gazed Drat at one noisy fort and then at the other.

Tbs answer lies In this: While the play that has failed to "inn lie good" tnay hare the frester literary tuerlt. It lacks the necessary requirements to mske It palatable to tbe manes. It* au thor has sacrificed tho taste of the public at the shrine of art, and failure Is hla pen alty. Herein lisa the secret of tbs succsn of Stephens and Unton. They believe that ths average audience attends tho theater to be amused, anil with that one Idoa as their freed they bare devoted all their energy In the production of tbe merry musical “ff.7 Wife's Family." which comes to the Ponco DeLeon Casino next week, with usual matinees. Seldom has a play received such universal Praise as that bestowed upon Htepheus and Linton's merry musical mlx up, "Sty Wife's Family.' Everywhere presented lest season It called for return dates, such entire satis faction did both play siul players give. Tb# story of ths comedy Is boned on the much- maligned mother-in-law topic and was built for laughing purposes only. It hoe served Its .object . well, fjtenhens and Linton art prolific writers of lyrics and oomedy as well ■■ performers of note, consequently are folly conversant with ths wants of tbs' theater-going public. In building "My Wife's Family" they here taken Into careful conslderadoo ell that Is expected of the actor to pisses the 9? t, flul n general.
