FOUR IIE ARE FRIENDS, CULLED SERINS IT ANTWERP Most Disheartening Incident Occurred at Siege When Ene my, by Ruse, Captured Bel gian Commandant. London, 3:36 a. m.—" One of the most (iisilnartcnlnK Indents of the Antwerp occurred Monday night at Duffel, a position where the trenches were Jiiald ny a fine regiment of Belgian Chasseurs," says a dispatch to The Morning Post from one of its corre spondents in Belgium. The message continues "latte at night the Belgian* saw ap proaching from along the river men whom they took to be English sol dier* and who called out: 'Wd are friends' when the sentinels challenged them. The colonel of the Belgian regl nrmt himself was watching them slid uiw them go tip as If to speak with the sentries Then suddenly lie found himself gagged and saw the sentinels strangled. The Hermans then rushed hi on the Belgian soldiers, most of whom were asleep in the trenches. When the attack was over only 800 survived of the 2.000 Belgians, "This was the third misfortune of the defense. The accidental blowing up of Port Wavre Bt, Catharine waa the first and the cutting of the city water supply was the second.” MR. L. J. PERRY, WITH RENB - LYONS & CO„ SAYS At this time of general depres sion (due to the Kuropean war), to all engaged In the cotton busi ness; 1 believe myself justified In now offering a word of encour agement to my friends and saveral features have arisen within the last forty-eight hours which tend to hear me out In this view. True, ruling prices are low below the cost of production—and, there fore, unsatisfactory, but the present prices sre beginning to attract attention, and will lead to good buying, especially as soon ss the great exchanges open. That day is probably not fnr off, us dlfin te pisns iiave now been presented which will lead to an early opening of the exchanges, thua leading to speculative de mand. The Kngilsh spinning and man ufacturing districts have appealed to Parliament for aid to accumu late reserves, which will prob ably be extended in some shape, as England has Just decided to assist Egypt. On the Continent of Europe, the mills In the non warrlng countries sre running, while even In the war sons some mills are working and making strenuous efforts to obtains sup plies of raw material. Japan is availing of the prices to stock up. Front Canada comes the news that ten mills have resumed ope rations, giving employment to 7,(i0tl persons. Our Southern nnd New England mills are at work, many Increasing their hours, and one plant at Kail River has just opened after twenty consecutive weeks of Idleness. As tending to show that after the first depressing Influences of war on cotton, prices usually re bound in some AnstHnees In quit* a pronounced manner, I think the appended list will prove quite In teresting. There is no reason why this war should prove ex ceptional My Southern friends must not think themselves the only ones suffering from the war conditions—we all are—but the sun still shines behind the clouds —and will soon break forth. 1870- Franco- ITnsslan war mlddla July—«xrly depression follow ed by advance from Ist of j August to middle of Septem hi»r I<**nt*. lI7T Russo-Turktsh war. middle May —famine India and Chi nn. vet advanced between the | middle of May «o middle of !
