MAIL CLERKS IN
DIXIE GET RAISE
1,048 in Railway Service in the
Southeastern District Share
in Salary Increase.
Nfttre 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 postofftce depart- ,
ment today contemplating a reorgani
zation of this branch of the service.
George W . Pepper, division superin- i
tendent for Tennessee, South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama and Florida, raid 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 service $1,000,000. Postmaster
Hitchcock, it is understood, has hit.
upon a plan to save the government i
this amount by a rearrangement of
tailway 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
Al BURN, 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
1 f 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 cap was taken off. He struggled
to rise, but the straps held and he de
livered his rambling argument, saying:
' Don’t kill n»e, gentlemen, I want to
warn you about women. Keep away
from women. That’s what, got me hery
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
WHIPPED LAD KILLS FATHER
AND TRIES TO SLAY SELF
GAINESVILLE. TEX., Sept. 16.—Wil
liam Smith, 38 years old, was shot through
the heart and killed this morning by his
fourteen-year-old son. just after he had
chastised him for throwing cotton bolls
at his brother instead of working. The
affair occurred 20 miles west of Gaines
ville, at Leo, shortly after sunrise, when
the family was preparing to go to work
in the cotton fields.
The load of a single-barreled shotgun
went through Smith's heart. The boy was
brought here and placed in jail. After
committing the crime, young Smith tried
to drown himself, but was prevented by
neighbors. He begged to be killed, say
ing he would rather be dead than suffer
the agony of realizing he had murdered
his own father.
BOLT OF LIGHTNING HITS
TWO PERSONS; KILLS DOG
WICHITA. KANS., Sept. 16.—Lightning
played a queer prank here today during a
hard rain. A bolt invaded the home of
S. E. Coop and, striking bls son and
daughter, left them unconscious. The
lightning ran through a porch and to an
iron pump, beneath which stood a dog.
The bolt broke the dog’s neck.
The boy's eyes were injured and he
may lose, the sight of one. The little girl's
shoes were torn off, but she soon recov
ered. The foundation of the house was
wrecked.

HEM REALIZING
LOWERS COTTON
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 ki anticipa
tion that the gulf storm would in
land with consequent damage to the crop.
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. I hiring 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 i
general character.
The buying is said to have come mostly
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
port, while the Now Orleans Times-dem
ocrat was not so bullish and prices sagged
around the opening The market re
sponded easily to the little buying, but
offerings were in excess of the demand,
checking all rallies, and during the after
noon session prices 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
DAjLY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 16.—The gulf
| storm which caused so much excitement
last week, but which we announced ail
along would be, harmless for the belt, has
vanished without*hny 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.
1 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 bales, 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.

first part of the week, and cool, unsettled
weather will continue the last of the
week. No indications at present time of
disturbance in West Indies.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat’s ;
report on August says in condensed form,
the consensus of opinion:
accounts are exceedingly
conflicting; but there seems to have been
a moderate deterioration, taking the bell
as a whole.
“Second—There is much complaint of
insects from certain sections, but it h
too soon to estimate the damage.
“Third—Farmers seem disposed to sell
at current prices at least enough to nav
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.”
