The 154th anniversary of Jefferson's birthday was celebrated Tuesday night at the Metropolitan Hotel in Washing ton by a subscription dinner given under the auspices of the National As sociation of L'etnocratic Clubs. The first celebration of the anniversary of Jefferson's birthday occurred at the same hostelry, then known as the In dian Queen. 1'resideut Jackson was the guest of honor and the occasion was made memorable by the presence of Vice President John 0. t'uljoun and others, Democratic leaders of that day. Wm. J. Bryan, of Nebraska, the late Democratic caudidato for President, was tha guest of honor. Senators, Representatives and others conspicuous in the councils of tho Democratic par ty, were present. Many of them were from a distance. Covers were laid for two hundred, and' a number of people wore denied seats for want of spaco at the tables. The decorations of the room were simple. The columns were entwined with Southern smilax and a full-length portrait of Jefferson, draped with American flags, was hung behind the seat of Governor Black, of Penn sylvania, the president of the associa tion. Upon his right were Mr. Bryan and Representative McMillin, who acted as toastmaster, cud cn the left were Senator Jones, of Arkan sas; Representatives Blaud, of Mis souri; LeuU, of Ohio; ex-Kepresenta-tive Sibley, of Pennsylvania, and An drew Lipscomb, of Virginia. Mr. Bryan was greeted with a lusty cheer as he en tered the hall. The menu was careful ly prepared and was similar to such a dinner as might have been served dur ing J efl'erson's days. The dishes were all American creations and each course, as far as possible, represented one sec tion of the country. The dinner began promptly at 8 o clook, an orchestra playing national airs, nienaeu wnn Southern melodies to conform in sym pathy to tho spirit of the dinner. Iho toasts were briefly responded to except in tha case of Mr. Bryan, who spoke at length to the toast, "incmas Jener fon." BELL COMPANY WINS. A Decision lu a Suit Involving Five Million Dollars. The Snpreme Court at Washington, D. C. , has denied the petition for a writ of certiorari in the case of the American Bell Telephone Company vs. the West ern Union Telegraph Company to com pel the Circuit Court of Appeals for the first oircuit to certify the case to tne Supreme Court. The case iuvolvos the question of royalties claimed from the Bell company liv the Western Union company, and was originally brought in tne Circuit Court for tne iJistnct of Massachusetts to sscure an account there of royalties. About $3,000,000 is involved. Alter instituting suit tne Western Union sought to have it dis missed, and after it was dismissed the Bell Company annealed to the Circuit Court of Appeals when the decision of tne Circuit Court was reversed. Ihe Western Union Company 6ought to have the case reviewed by the Supremo Court, but the opinion ' rendered denies this petition. This takes the case back to the Circuit Court for further proceedings It is a victory for tire Bell Telephone Company, and it is said this company will at once go into the telegraph field, while the Western Union Company will be shut out from the telephone field. An expert, speaking of the possible ex tension of the telephone company into the telegraph field, said that the new telephone wires conld be need simulta neously for both telephone and tele graph service, so that the two would not conflict in the least. PURIFYING MISSISSIPPI WATER. The Largest and Best Filter Plant In the World. The largest, tha costliest and b est plant in the world has just been com pleted at Davenport, Iowa. Practical men, whose experience has made their opinions worthy of respectf al attention, according to the Chicago Times-Herald, say that this plant really solves the water supply question for nearly all Western cities. Tho cost of the plant is $1,200,000. The ten double filter shells, which contain the immediate water supply, have a capacity of 7,500,000 gallon". The water is taken from the Mississippi River at a point above any large sewago outlet, and where the river water is naturally aerated and oxi dised by the presence of rapids. STARVATION IN CHINA. Hundreds Dying for Lack cf Food. Toor Kflorre. A San Francisco, Cal., special says the natives in the vioinityof Ichang, China, are dying by hundreds of star vation. T e gTain crop last year was almost a ',. 1 failure, and as the peo ple exchanged their maize for rice to last them through the winter, food has been scant for a long time. Supplies are now completely exhausted and the harvest of death has begun. 3 he offi cials are making efforts to f Ornish fool for the starving people by sending in rice, but the supplies they are able to contribute are so small and the number of those in direct need is so great that little good is accomplished. . Great Loss of Cattle. Between blizzards and high water cattle on the ranges throughout the Northwest have been having a tongb time of it since the first of last winter "s storms. In several South Dakota coun ties the loss to stockmen will be 4 ) or 60 per mi t, and scarcely anywhere will it fall below 20. Beet Sugar Factories. Seven beet -ujrar factories are sow shown to be in operation in this coun try, and fonr others are building or contemp'atea. i be rate of increase in sugar consumption for twenty-three rears bas been 273 per cent, in the United States; 142 in France; 159 in Germany; 107 in Austria, and DO in England. Streets Flooded. Two hundred families were driven from their houses at Grand Forks, N. J)., owing to the streets becoming fiooaao. The Crop This Year Depends Upon When the Water Recedes. 4,000,000 ACRES FLOODED, A Statement By the Government Showing the Magnitude of the In terests Affected By the Flood. A statement relative to the agricul tural interests of the Missisippi valley, south of Illinois, has been, issued by the Department of Agrioulturo at Wash ington. It is based upon a chart pre pared nndor the chief of the Weother Bureau, showing the extent of the flood on April C. To th's chart the De partment has appended the crop statis tics of 1300, as representing more close-. 1 v than any other available data the the acreage and value of the crops now in jeopardy. The statistics of popula tion, of the number aud acroage of farms and of farm implements are those of the census, and the statistics of live btock are those of the Department of agriculture of January 1st, 167. The total area under water on April Gth was about 15,000-square miles, of which 7,100 miles were in Mississippi; 4,600 in Arkansas; l,7o0 in Missouri; 1,200 in Tennessee, and 450 in Louisi ana. This region, in 1890, so far as can be determined from the somewhat in definite boundary lines of the flood, had a population of 870,085, of which 160,489, or about one-half, were in Mississippi; 100435 in Arkansas, and the remainder almost equally divided between Missouri and . Tennessee. Taking the entire region, the colored population outnumbered the whites in the proportion of 12 to 7, a third pro dominating in the flood districtsof Mis sisuippi in the ratio of more than 5 to 1, and in Arkansas in that of 2 to 1." In Missouri and 'iennessee the population of the flood district is largely white, in the former State in the proportion of 10 to 1, and in the latter, SO to 1. The flood districts, it is estimated, contain about SO, 500 farms, of which 18,500 are in Mississippi; nearly 10,000 in Arkan sas, and a like number about equally divided between Missouri and Tennes see. These farms have a total area of about 3,800,000 acres, one half of which is in Mississippi, and rather over one fourth in Arkansas, the proportions in Missouri and Tennessee being about the same as is the case of tho number of the farms. The total value of these farms, with their implements, eta, is close upon sixty-five millions of dollars, and here, also, the proportion in the above States is about the same as noted above. The total number of acres, at the taking of the last census was about two million and a half, and were last year devoted to cotton and corn, to which crops nearly 05 per cent, of the entire acreage cultivated is devoted. The entire value, including one and one quarter million dollars for live 'stock, and four hundred thousand dol lars for crops on hand, is over eight and on j half million dollar. The weather bureau predicts a fur thor extent of tho flood area, but no attempt, of course, has been mode to estimate how great it will be. The bureau publishes a map of the country flooded and says: "The flood water in western Mississippi is just beginning to return to the Mississippi river, at a point just north of Vioksburg. It is ex pected that this flood will pass into the Mississippi between the mouth of Ya zoo, and Miliken's landing, a few miles to the north. The great strain expeot ed during tho noxt few days will be on the Louisiana side. Heroio work is now being done on the levees of North ern Louisiana, and it is expected that they will be held in.

Industries Will be Shown That sre Not Generally Known. A special correspondent writing from" Charlotte, N. C, concerning thWd men's Exposition of the Carolinas, among other things, says: "One of the most interesting features of the exposi tion, which takes place during the month of May, reaching into June, will be the showing cf the industries of these States that are not very generally known. For instance, as fine kaolin as Is produced in the United States is here found, and is main into earthenware, china and an excellent crade of porce lain ware. An exhibit of this product will show the process of manufacture from its crude state into articles of daintv shape aud attractiveness. Moore county yields sand of most excellent quality lor tne nianutacture oi une glassware, and samples of this finished ware wid also be shown. Splendid col lections of minerals will demonstrate the varied resource of the Carolinas. The industrial department is attain ing larce proportions, and manufac turers from all sections are taking space. It is especially desired that each and every cotton mill in iNortn and South Carolina will plaoe on ex hibit a bolt or more of each class of goods they manufacture, so that a com plete showing of our enormous and fast growing milling industry maybe made. It is necessary to arrange for space at once. A collection of colonial, revolutionary. Mexioau and Confederate relics is be ing gathered together, probably larger in extent and general comprehensive ness, and greater historical value than any similar collection ever made in tue two states. Very low passage rates to the Exposi tion have been Granted bv a'l the rail roads; and the admission fee is placed at only half the usual charge for such exhibitions, but the desire of the man agement is that every one may avail themselves of the opportunity which offers so much of interest along art and educational lines. Arrangements are being mado to ac commodate the large crowds that will be here during the month of May. To give some idea of the events outside of the Exposition, which is of course the main attraction, that are to occur in May. it may be well to recall a few: btate Lodge of (Jdd bellows meet; General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in session; State Dental So ciety and Board of Dental Examiners convene; inter-State bicycle raoes will be held; inter-State firemen's meet with firemen s races; baseball games between leading Southern teams; a series of theatrical attractions; and any number of entertainments both at the Exposition and elsewhere; lectures and addresses by prominent men, while one of the leading Southern women will deliver the opening address of the Women s Exposition. THE BUSINESS WORLD. Effect of War Scare Floods Don't Artec t Cotton. Messrs. R. G. Dun & Co. 's review of trade for last week, says: "An unde clared war between Greece and Turkey has been responsible more than any other single cause for the changes in business. Actual fighting, with facts which Eecm to make a formal declara tion of war by Turkey inevitable, have affected grain markets much and stooks slightly. The progress of the Missis sippi floods does not change tho price of cotton, and settlement of tha more important labor difficulties has revived works suspended week before last. The temporary decrease in exports and large increase in imports, at New York, 20.8 per cent, for the month caused questions about the financial future which have net much influence as yet. The increase in im ports, 89,000,000, or over 15 per cent from last year, and 817,100.000, or 28.0 per cent, from February, if long continued, may embarrass some branches of business, but can harly ex haust balances remairing from the un precedented excess of merchandise ex ports, W2X.H81.&10 in nine months end ing with March "Failures for the week were 207 in the United States, against 222 last year and 80 in Canada against 86 last year.

Louisiana, 209 officers and men, $2,436. Beginning of the End. According to information received from trustworthy sources at Washing ton, the withdrawal of at least a part of the great army that Spain has main tainsd for several years past in the island of Cnba will bearin when the rainy seaso sets in. The initial move ment will be the departure of 10,000 Spanish troops from Habana for Spain, and within a short time after that 80,000 troops, it is understood, will follow. Oysters in Knglnnd. Probably few Americans even have any conception of the immense nnmbei of oysters shipped to England, which ie the sole market for American bivalves, as France rears her own, and the Ger man duty of SIB per barrel is rather ioc steep to allow any margin for profit Hundreds of thousands of barrels are received yearly in England, xany of which are transplanted for a few months, when they are taken up for the summer trade.
