MAIL CLERKS IN
DIXIE GET RAISE
1.048 in Railway Service in the
Southeastern District Share
in Salary Increase.
More than 1,000 railway mail clerks
in this division of the service will come
in for a salary increase as a result of
orders issued by the postoffice depart
ment today contemplating a reorgani
zation of this branch of the service.
George W Pepper, division superin
tendent for Tennessee, South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama and Florida, said to
day that the plan to boost salaries in
the railway service to $1,000,000 meant
a new classification of clerks on the
service system.
Out of the 1.048 clerks in the service
of the southern division Superintendent
Pepper estimated that the majority
would get an increase in salary.
This reorganization results directly
from an enactment of congress increas
ing the postal appropriation for the
railway set vice $1,000,000. Postmaster
Hitchcock, it is understood, has hit
upon a plan to save the government
this amount by a rearrangement of
ailway mail car space, cutting down
the amount the government pays the
railroads.
The new law provides for three
classes of railway postal lines. The
compensation will be highest for lines
which the work is the heaviest. Be
ginning with S9OO a year, clerks will be
raised SIOO a year until the maximum is
reached. The highest salary is fixed at
SI,BOO. Chief clerks will receive $2,00.
a year.
GOES MAD AS HE SEES
DEATH CHAIR; SHOCK
ENDS NEGRO’S RAVING
AUBURN, N Y., Sept. 16.—The most
grewsome spectacle ever presented at
an electrocution was seen at Auburn
prison today, when James Williams, a
negro, was executed. Fear of death
had driven the negro insane and he
struggled and talked incessantly from
the time he was taken out of the death
cell until the electric current ended his
life.
Nevertheless, the execution was one
of the most rapid on record, requiring
only one minute and forty seconds. One
contact of 1,880 volts ended Williams'
life.
Williams was accompanied to the
chair by a priest. Despite the priest’s
soothing words, Williams struggled to
the last against his captors and insist
ed upon making a wild speech. He en
tered the death chamber in a working
suit and golf cap, but was angry when
the sap was taken off. He struggled
to rise, but the straps held and he de
livered his rambling argument, saying:
“Don't kill me. gentlemen. I want to
warn you about women. Keep away
from women. That's what got me het ?.
That's my last voice. Lord Jesus, I
was the first one. Hello. I'm the one,
but, gentlemen, don’t kill me."
The current ended his wild harangue.

Weak Cables and Better
Weather Cause Selling and
Prices Lose Heavily.
NEW YORK Sept. 16. —Weakness in
Liverpool cables resulted in a heavy real
izing movement by commission houses
who bought heavily Saturday in anticipa
tion that the gulf storm would sweep in
land with consequent damage to the crop. 1
This caused the cotton market this morn
ing to open, with the first prices
ranging from 6 to 13 points lower than
the closing prices of Saturday. The
weather map shows very favorable condi
tions oyer Sunday. During the first fif
teen minutes of trading the market was
rather quiet and prices inclined to sag
around the opening. Shortly after the
call, the market developed a steady tone,
and some irregularity was shown in
prices. The buying was very moderate
and scattered, while the selling was of »
general character. *
The buying is said to have come mqstly
from Liverpool and some commission
houses. Also' the Waldorf crowd was
aggressive at times. The trading, how
ever. has .not been large and the market
was very narrow The Commercial-Appeal
was out with a very bullish condition re
i port, while the New Orleans Times-Dem
| ocrat was not so bullish and prices sagged
around the opening. The market re
[ sponded easily to the little buy ing, but
offerings were in excess of the demand,
'checking all rallies, and during the after
noon session prices aggregated 6 to 16
points decline from the opening.
Renewed selling during the last half
hour of trading by spot interests and
the ring crowd caused a further down
ward movement in prices, and at the
close the market was steady, with prices
a net decline of 23 to 26 points from the
final quotations of Saturday,

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
| .NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 16. -The gulf
storm, which, caused so much excitement
last week, but which we announced all
along would bp' harmless for the belt, has
vanished without any damage to the crop,
and Washington now says in its weekly
forecast that there are at present no
signs of any disturbance in the West
indies.
Weather over Sunday was favorable
with lower temperatures; some good
rains in central states; scattered showers
elsewhere. Indications are for rainy and
cooler weather in western and north cen
tral states; partly cloudy and scattered
showers elsewhere.
Liverpool was poorer than due. by about
4 points; spot prices 8 points lower, sales
9.000 hales, of which only 6,000 were
American. Official government records
show good and pretty general rainfall
over Sunday in Arkansas, northern half
of Mississippi. Alabama and Tennessee.
The market lost about 10 points in early
trading, owing to poor Liverpool, good
weather and Times-Democrat report, but
held very steady at decline. Fear of fur
ther professional support in New York
caused usual scarcity of sellers.
Tomorrow's weekly report should be fa
vorable owing to the general rains over
the belt and lower temperatures.

conflicting; but there seems to have been
a moderate deterioration, taking the bell
as a whole.
“Second—There is much complaint o!
insects from certain sections, but it In
to '.'r S ?°9 n to estimate the damage.
“Third Farmers seem disposed to sell
at current prices at least enough to pay
their debts.
“Fourth -The. supply of labor for pick
ing is adequate’ as a rule, but special
causes have created a scarcity in particu
lar districts.
“Fifth The crop is. perhaps, the most
spotted ever known.”
