What Is Thought of Her and Her Officers ' in Charleston An Earthquake Bemin iscenee. : We supplement the account given in the Star yesterday of the new revenue cutter Galveston with the following from the Charleston News andCourier: The Galveston, the flagship of the re- venuejnarine, arrived at this port yes terday morning and dropped anchor in the Cooper River, directly opposite the United States Custom House, where she remained all day an object of admi ration to hundreds of persons who were attracted. by her shapely lines. A frw minutes after dropping anchor a small boat was lowered and two stal wart white-jacketed sailors pulled her commander, Capt. F. M. Munger to the Custom House pier. Landing, Capt. Munger, at once called on the collector of th port and paid his respects. Capt. Munger is well-known in this city and is an ever welcome guest, for the people of Charleston will not soon forget the kind ness and consideration he showed them during the terrible days of the earth quake of 1886. He was then a first lieu tenant and was in command of the rev enue cutter McCulloch, which was at that time stationed at this port. Immediately after the first earthquake shock he had the cutter brought along side of the Custom House pier, and offered his vessel for the accommoda tion of those whose homes had been destroyed. This kind and thoughtful offer was gratefully accepted, and. for days after the ear thquake the McCulloch was converted into a marine lodging house. Capt. Munger did not let his generosity stop there, however, but gave financial assistance as well. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that he is al ways gladly welcomed to the City by the Sea; and his friends here will be pleased to know of his appointment to the command Of the handsomest vessel of the revenue marine service. Capt. ! Munger is justly proud of his ship. As she lay in mid-stream yester- day, with her white sides, tail tapering masts and graceful spars glistening in the sunlight, she presented a striking likeness to Jay Gould's superb steam yacht, the Atalanta. The Galveston is brand new and is now making her maiden voyage. She is a long, narrow craft and has the ap pearance of having been built for speed. The Galyeston is said to be the best revenue cutter owned by theUnited Stutes Government, and it would be hard to find her equal in the revenue service of any country. She was built by Charles Reeder & Sons, of Baltimore; Md., and is 190 feet over all, with a 29 foot beam and 11 feet depth of hold. screw propellers, com The Charleston .and Savannah Railway authorities have for some time been pushing the work of filling in the trestle on the South Carolina side of the Savannah river. The work has been tedious. It is expected that it will be completed by the end of this week. The following circular has been is sued by General Traffic Manager Sol Haas appointing W. H. Halsey Claim Aeent of the Richmond and Danville Railroad and its controlled lines: "September 12, 1891. W. H. Halsey is appointed Claim Agent of these lines, with office at : Atlanta, Ga. Effective SeDtember 12. All communications and reports in reference to freight claims must be made to Mr. Halsey after the 18th instant." j .

Joseph S. Potts. Passenger Agent, with office at Richmond, Va. i A new departure in railway insurance has been inaugurated. It has long been the custom with some railways to insure all freight in their possession, whether in transit or at the various stations on the line, but the Long Island Railroad Company is reported to have made an arrangement with the American Casual ty Insurance and Security Company of Baltimore, under wnicn an ciaims iur personal injury shall be assumed' by that company, thereby relieving the railroad company from any liability in connection therewith. The Railway Age says now that the cablegrams to the daily press has begun to report railway accidents in Europe the American public is learning that the railways of this country do not suffer much in comparison with those Net receipts of cotton at all ports yesterday, 26,662 bales.- Advices from Robeson county in- j dicate an average cotton crop.

His apartments consist of a dining roorn, sitting room, bed room and bath room, all furnished in mahogany, and are fitted up in the most luxurious man ner. The sitting room has long, low divans of Nile green plush along its walls, on one of which is a superb bevelled mirror of plate glass. The furniture of the rooms is all ol mahogany and is very costly. In the bath room is a large bathtub, marble washstand and faucets from which either hot or cold water can be drawn. The cabins of the ward room officers are aft of the captain's quarters and are commodious and comiortaDie rooms. They are also furnished in mahogany and provided with closets.

Conductors from every road in the system will also be present and urge their claims. A long petition setting forth the re quest of the conductors will be present ed. An average increase of about $10 a month for each conductor will be asked. ! GOLDSBORO FAIR. Charleston News and Courier: The recent heavy and continuous rains have had a very bad effect on the grades of cotton put on the market. A factor said yesterday : "The cottons we have han dled up to this time have generally been of the poorer grades. I believe there has been more poor cotton on the mar ket in the past week than ever before in the same length of time, but I am glad to say that the cotton is brightening up considerably now, and that received to day is mostly of very much better grade. The rain injured to some extent most of the cotton we have received. Of course some of the bales have been of high grade." New York Bulletin: Demand for cotton goods was apparently less ac tive, because of the few orders usual to Tuesday's mail. On the spot there was rather more doing, although the recent drop in cotton made the inquiry for goods less pronounced. For general supplies the request was very good and included a pretty full variety of goods. Some of the best known marks of brown, bleached and colored cotton were quite active. Wide sheetings and cot ton flannel continue sold up, and strong in tone. The request for bleached goods was more general, with a better movement in medium descriptions. Agents as a rule report stocks light. Cotton goods have improved in con dition and tone. The market is fairly well sold up, with few exceptions, and prices are considerably firmer. Agents are not shading m favor of, buyers and are refusing offers that would have been gladly accepted ten days ago. This con dition has not yet reached every line of goods, but it is quite general. and we are. the LEADERS.
