We are hardly disposed to credit the report from Berlin that tho German government has offered to appropriate 112,69,000 to encourage cotton grow ing In Germany's colonies, provided he German manufacturers shall raise a sum at least as large. All English, .German and French efforts to break our cotton monopoly have hitherto net with bo little success that fur ther experiment, on auch a scale as Jthe Berlin report Indicates, seem very unlikely at this time. Though these projects have ranged over the entire period since the civil war and no promising part of Aula, Africa or trop ical America haa been left untrlod, Texas to-day produces about as much As all non-American countries com bined. The Southern States produce over three-fourths of tho world's crop. It Is true that some of these expert talents have apparently demonstrated the possibility of success In case such hindrances as the unattracllveness of the regions In question for white col onists, lack of transportation facilities, and difficulty iu securing suitable labor are removed, but in the meantime lit tle can bo done. At best, the work of Clearing the way for really Impor tant competition with tho American grower must be tedious and expensive, and the utmost possibilities of any of these regions are no more, than a fraction of the South V it In no cause for wonder that Kngllsh Hplnners are coming around to the view that, after all, tho required Increuao In tho world's supply must be Bought almost entirely In the Southern States for a long time to come. The proposal to buy cotton lands and cultivate them will probably come to naught, as It should, but this Is beside the question. If the foreign spinner will only help Southern growers to secure the labor they need, his problem will have been solved for an Indefinite period. ' The unquestioned nblllty of Southern soil to yield crops sever.il times us large as the Urgent yet yielded Is an assur ance that the tropin" need not be re quisitioned to keep the spindles of the world from going hungry. Not only can the South, granted suf ficient labor, supply the increasing de mand for cotton, but the foreigner will have no dlflVuIty In getting hi hare. The constitution of tho United Stale forbid export duties, and so long a business 1 buslne whoever come down with the price will get the goods without tr- least rgard to nationality or whether he Is Teuton, Colt. Dago. Slav or Mongol Inas much a the American spinner must bid against thn foreigner, talk about "surprus avallablu for export" a phrase properly applicable almost nolo IjT to tarlff-protei ted produc's has a rather empty eoun.l in 'hi. ..nnnectl. ,n King Cotton's s-.ib ' u bound throughout the srth.

Harrlman to Wash ington were mad to obtain from Prss (dent . .uooscvelt quieting assurances regarding , the administration' U1 tude toward, the railroad Interest ot the country thcy.wer far worse than wasted.. ln the language of the As sociated Press story of Thursday' stock market panic, "the announce ment from Washington that no change of policy waa to be expected appealed strongly to the speculative Imagina tion and fear as sweeping away the last bulwark of protection for the railroad companies from the onset of Indignant public disapproval and vn threatened confiscation." The long drops in prices are the more serious because coming after a period of slumping had already brought prices to a comparatively low level. This panic Is therefore a much more ser ious matter at least for Wall street than the brief cyclone of February 9, 1601, even apart from the fact that It does not proceed from a mere squeeze In stocks but a real scare. That yesterday's reaction was due almost entirely to London buying I also significant. We have no Idea that agitation against' the railroads has reached a stage which would Jus tify such an upset, and It I difficult to avoid a suspicion that the mag nates, forgetting how much loss Wall street panics are feared by tho coun try than formerly, fostered the alarm In order to furnish the public an ob ject lesson. However this may be, it Is gratifying to note that in spite of the speculative losses caused by the shrinkage in quotations there Is no prospect of money trouble. Wall street may tremble for Its poker chips, but we see no menace to the prosperity of the real country. Rev. William Wllloughby Newton recently aroused a stir of protest by ranking General Leo's Invasion of Pennsylvania with Sherman's march through the South as an Illustration of tho horrors of war. "And when tho Confederate army, under General Iee, Invaded Pennsylvania at the time of the battle of Gettysburg," he wrote In The American Sunday 8chool Magazine, "destruction and rapine fol lowed In the wake of the Invaders. There was evil and misery at every turn." In view of the unanimous tes timony to the splendid behavior to ward non-combatants which, in shin ing contrast to tho wanton rapine of Sherman's horde, the Confederate sol dier showed In the enemy's territory, Mr. Newton was due tho South an apology, and we are pleased to note that he has given it with commend able promptness. Above nil things let us be Just. And these things cannot bo too often re peated concerning the Legislature Just adjourned. Without demagogic, slav ish fear of the people, It deult out ap propriations with a discriminating but a imerai nana it took enre as no former Legislature has done, of our insane, so that after awhile there will be no more cries of distress from this unhftppy class.

O Donu fclnnv -Tim ljuuer tiavo Him Money Ho went to (Salisbury ami turned Willi Liquor -.John Mullls lined for Cursing Other Case. : . The city police court did a good morning's worn yesterday. Jim Mul Us answered to the charge of selling liquor to J. M. O'Donoghu And was placed under a 1200 bond for his ap pearance at' court. lis was unable to furnish this and went, to Jail. O'Don oghue, who was the principal witness against him, testified that he gave the defendant 12 on account' remarking at the same time that hs would like to have a gallon of liquor. Shortly af ter this the defendant took a trip to ' Salisbury. . O'Donoghu denied vigor oustyv however, that h i, gave. , the money to Mullls for the express pur pose of proourlng ihe liquor. He had gone, ho said, to the home of Mullls when the latter was slumbering and. poured out about a gallon of the liquor on his own Initiative. The wit ness saw nothing wrong In such a transaction. . John Mullls won a place on ' the court records by swearing In ft pro. fane manner to a neighbor woman. The trend of the evidence was to the effect that liquor was the cause of a good part of it. He was fined f 10 and advised not to repeat the stunt In the future. The plight In which Tom Ervln, a negro hack driver, found himself was caused by an overwhelming desire to indulge his natural proclivity for sleep. The stillness which hung over the slumbering city Thursday night lulled his senses Into a state of de licious nothingness. So profoundly slept he that the touch of a police man's billy roused him but for a mo ment. Scarcely had he sunk back into repose, dreaming of fares who gave $10 tips, than the claMon notes of tho fire alarm pealed forth. He heard It not at all, nor the clatter of the pass ing fire-fighters. It was the gentle touch of the officers wand which again caused him to sit up and take notice, this time In atfiurry. He lash ed his steed, which dashed across the extended hose, In violation of a statute. mado and provided. The steed was not In court, but the driver was as sessed $10 In the two cases. The trial of Messrs. Randolph Mungo, brnkeman; Sam McCall, en gineer, and Jim Shlrer, conductor, all of the crew of two freight trains con cerned In the blocking of the crossing of tho Southern Railway and East Trade street, consumed an hour and a half of the court s time. The evidence was to the effect that about 11 o'clock Thursday night the crossing waa blocked for about 20 or 25 minutes. The blame was Anally settled on Drakeman Mungo, who had been left to guard the crossing and who was responsible, having failed to signal the "'nglneer to clear It. He was fined $10. A second warrant, charging Mungo with disorderly conduct, was also or dered made out, and this will be heard this morning. Elijah Phlfer, colored, went to the roads for 30 days, for having too much leisure on his hands and not enough visible means of support. DIDN'T RKSPKOT HIS RELIGION.

Detective Ahem, of the Southern Railway, this morning arrested Con ductor A. L. Pritchett and Conductor E. T. Tucker, both of whom were placed in jail to await a hearing be fore 'Squire Collins on a chareg of larceny of a large amount of freight from the railway company while serv ing as employes.
