DIEECT TRADE.
To the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail
road Company belongs the distinc
tioa of having inaugurated direct
trade between a Southern port and
Europe, the beginning of a grand
movement, the far reaching results
of which no man can predict
Last July this company entered
into a contract with Christopher
Furness, one ' ot the largest ship
owners in England, for four lines of
steamers to run between Newport
News, Va., and London, Liverpool,
Glasgow and Havre. In compliance
With this contract, twenty steamers,
three more than originally contem
plated, will be put on by the first of
January. In addition to these
steamers wftich will sail on fixed
days loaded with promiscuous .car
goes, there will be other steamers
loaded with grain, the railroad com
pany having made contracts for the
transportation of immense quan
tities of grain from ihe
West to tie exported to
Europe. Heretofore there was no
Western grain shipped from any port
South of Baltimore, with, perhaps,
the exception of Norfolk, which
inighthave shipped some, and New
uneans, wnich, within the past
couple of years, has become a great I
shipping point, the grain being car-
ried down the Mississippi on barges
and from these transferred to the
ships.
These Newport News steamers
will not be employed simply in car
rying cargoes out, but will bring
cargoes back for Chicago, Cincinnati,'
Louisville, St. Louis and other Wes-
tern cities which have heretofore
imported their foreign merchandise
by way of New York and other
Northern ports, so that this Newport
XT J i
mews uepa.ri.ure means not only a
great export, business but also a
great import business, and is the be
ginning of a great revolution in
ocean transportation.
One of these steamers loaded with
a general cargo left Liverpool for
Newport News on the 18th nst., and
will be followed at regular periods
by others similarly loaded, the com
pany having employed agents to
work up this business in England,
Scotland and Ireland, as it will in
other countries to which its steamers
run.
This is a matter in whiclTnot only
the company which inaugurated it,
and the State of Virginia are inter
ested, but the whole South and the
Northwest. It mean's to the Chesa
peake & Ohio Railroad an immense
business, the speedy "development
and increased production of the
, country through which its lines-run,
growing towns and multiplied indus
tries, and it means for Virginia at no
distant day another great city where
until this new departure an unpre
tending little town stood.
- It means for the South more lines
ot steamers from other ports which
are termini of railroad systems and
eventually a great Southern mer
chant marine seeking the commerce
not OD1 V Or JCiUrOpean countries uui
U..4.
of the world.
. - . ..
It means, direct trade from a nurn-
bel" of SoUthenTpOrtS not Only, with
England and other Europeao-coun-
tries, but with central ana &outn
America, and with other countries to
which America ships her products or
from which she buys products.
To the Northwest ic means more,
shorter and cheaper routes to the
outside markets of the world for
what it sells or buys, a saving tothe
shipper in the cost of handling and
transportation of what he ships, and
to the importer In the cost of hand
ling and transportation of what he
imports. ' - .
To the Southern cotton planter it
means a good deal for it means the
shipping of the bulk of the cotton
crop intended for export direct from
the sections in which it is produced,
thus reducing the cost of handling
and transporting, resulting in more
clear money to the planter.
To the Western grain grower it
means the same thing, a large saving
in the cost of handling and trans
porting his exportable surplus, which
will go to his credit on the balance
sheet. -
Why don't the leaders of the Far
mer's Alliance, instead of advocatiHg
and wasting their time with absurd
impossibilities, turn their attention
to practical subjects like this, the
shortest, surest and most rational
way to secure the che.ap, equitable
freight rates which the farmers de
mand and hope to secure through
the absurd, impracticable and im
possible scheme that looks to the
Government ownership of the rail-
-roads and, if the" scheme were car
ried out to its logical conclusion, of
the lines of boats on the rivers and
lakes, and of vessels on the seas, as
well. A meeting of Alliance men
did discuss this problem some time
ago; held one or two meetings at
Atlanta and appointed a committee
to work it up and to consider and
report on the ways and means by
which it might be carried out, but
since the leaders have got so deeply
immersed in politics they seem to
have lost sight of ships and every
thing else that hasn't got politics in
some shape mixed up with it:-
MINOR MENTION.
Some of the trade journals are
salting Uncle Jerry Rusk for recom
mending taking hides off the free
list to punish the Massachusetts
boot and shoe men for letting a
Democratic Governor be elected.
They show that this could not be
done and defended on the ground of
protection, for American leather
needs no protection, and no one
wants it except a few of the cattle
kings in the West, who would be the
only persons benefitted by it. Hide
and Leather, published in Chicago,
the greatest hide market in the
world, says the hide dealers ot that
"City have done without protection
for twenty years, and don't need it
now. Uncle Jerry Rusk to the
contrary notwithstanding, while the
Boston Commercial Bulletin savs
American leather needs no protec-
tion, for over fifty per cent of the
Dest leather used in the shoe trade
is American leather. It reminds
Uncle Jerry that if his foolish threat
were carried out he would not be
punishing the Massachusetts shoe
men much, for if they had to pay
more for their leather they would
simply add what they paid to the
shoes they sold, and make the peo-
pie who wore the shoes pay the
extra-cost of-the leather, so that
Uncle Jerry would be punishing
them instead of the Massachusetts
shoe men .
According to the cable dispatches.
that Russian loan which the Roths
childs refused to take, but which was
taken by a French syndicate, was
something more than they could
handle, being able to furnish only
twelve million pounds -out of - the
twenty millions agreed upon. ' The
refusal xf the German" Government
. c
to.permit German bankers from ad-
vancing money on Russian loans
Vn jsce , ,
makes it still the more difficult for
that Government to command the
money it needs, and must have, to
meet the present emergencies and
put its army on a-war footing. IThis,
it is thought, strengthens the chances
for peace. If ' peace or war depend
ed solely upon Russia this might be
so, if she be as much embar
rassed for .funds as it' is said she
is, but may not - the fact that
she is so embarrassed ,be an incen

live to Germany to strike before
Russia gets herself in good shape

and

thus it may be that the embarrass-'
ment of Russia on which .some base
the hope of peace may precipitate

war. it seems to us mam uermany
expects to lock horns with Russia,
now while Russia has a famine to
deal with at : home, .must buy food
to feed millions of her people, and is
pressed for money, too, would be
the time to do it. Germany can
very easily find or make a cause if
she wants to.
After many years, of discussion,
litigation and political contention
the State of Virginia has at last suc
ceecTin making a satisfactory ad
justment Of her State debt" satisfac
tory to herself and also to the hold-
ers of her bonds, and as far as we
understand thesituation it is a set
tlement which while entirely fair all
around and satisfactory to the bond
holders, is highly creditable to the
commissioners who acted tor the
State, who managed the negotiations
admirably and with a success which
entitles them to the highest com
mendation. The following is the
basis of settlement agreed upon as
we learn from the Norfolk Virginian:
The proposition Tis to issue a maxi
mum amount of $19,000,000 ol bonds to
be exchanged for the outstanding obli
gations of the State mentioned inlthe
Riddleberger act (other than those held
by the schools and colleges) now in the
hands of the public, but not including
bonds already issued under that act.
such new bonds to ran one hundred
years and to bear 2 per cent, interest lor
ten years and three per cent, lor ninety
years, the bonds and interest to be of
the same general character as that pro
vided for by the Riddleberger bill, with
coupons and other interest obligations
non-receivable for taxes. ,-.
The amount called for under the
Riddleberger act would have been
$21,744,561, bearing an annual in
terest of $652,500. In the settle
ment several millions less of bonds
are called for and the bondholders
relinquish a large part of the inter
est accrued since 1882 when the Rid
dleberger bill was passed. Virginia
ought to be pretty well satisfied with
such a settlement, at such a low rate
of interest and ahundred years to
go on.
She has cause to rejoice.
Several years ago the State of
Florida practically gave away to the
Disston syndicate of Philadelphia
about 8,000,000 or more acres of
swamp lands in the Everglades re
gion. Much of this land was cov
ered by water from six to seven feet
deep, with lakes here and there, deep
enough to be navigable by light
draught boats, connected by tortuous
rivers. The syndicate proceeded at
once to dig canals and straighten the
rivers connecting these lakes. So'
far several millions of acres ot fertile
land have been reclaimed upon
which fine crops of rice and sugar
have been grown. This work will
go on until the 8,000,000 acres are
drained, and Jhose dismal swamps of
few years ago turned into one of the
most fertile, attractive sections of the
State, the lands bordering the lakes
being brought under cultivation and
boats plying upon the lakes, connect
ed by these straightened rivers, to
carry the products to market. The
State of Florida might have done all
this years ago herself if she would,
but she couldn't see it.
STATE TOPICS.
We learn from our Raleigh corres
pondent that there is talk in Raleigh
of erecting a large building for a per
manent museum, to which is to be
transferred many of the exhibits now
in the Inter-State Exposition. The
idea of a permanent museum for the
exhibtion of products, natural, espe
cially minerals, and artificial, of the
State is a good one, and one which
the Star has several times suggest
ed. It should, of course, be in some
centrally located city, and Raleigh is
as good as any. We dont know
who the "projectors of this proposed
museum are, or . what the prospects
are of carrying the idea out, but "it
should be followed up until such a
museum be established at Raleigh or
somewhere else, and one large

Star Correspondence.
Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 21st, 1891.
The decision of the Baptist State
Convention to locate the Female
College of. t "hat denomination in
Raleigh, and, this too, without the
requirement of any pecuniary con
sideration, has proven a source of
much satisfaction to all our people.
This is especially so, as it vindicates
our citizens from the charge that
they were indifferent to . a matter
calculated to be ot benefit Jn-a mu
tual point of view.
Ex-Judge Womack hes caused to
be issued the first volume of his
digest, upon which he has been most
diligently at work for several
months. Your- correspondent was
told this morning by one of our
most prominent lawyers, who had
examined it, that it will rank well
with any ever compiled in North
Carolina. ;- , ;
Grand Sire Busbee has about ap
parently regained his usual health.
He appears daily on the streets, and
speaks cheerfully of the future. It
is particularly gratifying to note that
he has almost entirely recovered the
use of his hand, andrso far as his
mental capacities are concerned they
are in no wise impaired. ,
The chain of evidence is fast be
ing-wound around ueorge . u ttiey,
the negro man in jail here for the
assassination of Atkins. It is al
most cettain that the Grand Jury
will find a- "true bur against him.
The institutions for the deaf and
dumb (white and "colored), are now
crowded to their utmost capacity,
Indeed it is almost impossible to
accommodate the inmates to that
extent of comforts desirable. Many
applicants in the next year must
necessarily be denied, and the com
oletion of the new institution at
Morganton is anxiously awaited.
Although it would seem to be
somewhat premature, there is al
ready much speculation and some
wire pulling, relative to the candi
dacy for Congress, on the Demo
cratic side, from this district next
year. It is urged by the friends of
Mr. N. B. Broughton, that, by
tacit understanding, he has the
"right of way" for 1892, but there is
a consiaeraDie element nere dis
posed . to kick at what they
-consider any preconcerted ar
rangement. It may, therefore, be
safely asserted, that the doctrine of
the "longest pole will sweep the Sim
mons, is likely to be adopted. There
is no scarcity of patriots to serve the
people in Wake, and they are about
as comparatively numerous in other
counties of the district. So far as
the opposition is concerned on the
.Republican side, it is evident that no
definite line of action has been
mapped out. From what your cor
respondent can learn from the lead
ing element of the party, the still
hunt policy will be continued, and
the man put forward will be one of
the "catch penny" order, with in
structions to gather up such disaf
fected elements as are in reach.
A syndicate of our wealthy citi
zens are understood to have under
consideration the matter of a fine
Opera house in this city. This is a
badly needed want here, as our peo
ple are bereft of the enjoyment of
many fine theatricals for want of
proper accommodations. It Is hoped,
that the scheme will assume definite
shape at an early day.
A scheme has been set on foot
here which is causing some little ex
citement in real estate circles. It
seems that a proposition is made to
rent or lease from the State " the
park known as Moore Square in the
eastern section of the city on which
to erect vast a building to be used as
permanent museum. To this it is
designed to removed the exhibits of
the Inter State Exposition. In view
of the fact to a vast amount of prop
erty has recently changed hands at
fancy prices, in the western suberbs,
it can well be imagined that a con
stir has been developed.
CURRENT COMMENT.
-Imports of barley from Cana-

The awful possibilities of the

GREAT SNAKE.
A Begular Anaconda Killed Near Lynch
burg;.
Richmond Times. .
Yesterday evening Dr. Wendlin-
linger came to town from up the
Richmond & Alleghany railroad with
a dead snake that was a regular
monster. It was fifteen feet long
and as large in proportion, and was
evidently an anaconda which had
probably escaped from some of the
many travelling ten cent shows
which have lately frequented- this
part of the world. His snakeship
was left at the cafe of Mr. Gus E.
Delarue, where a number of people
gazed in silent awe upon the de
ceased gigantic reptile.
It was killed at Lorraine on the
Richmond and Alleghany railroad,
about six miles from Richmond, by
Mr. Lane, section "'foreman on the
road. It is stated that it crawled out
of the woods and silently approach
ed from behind a negro boy who was
working near the track. It seized
the overalls which the negro had on
in its mouth and began chewing on
them. Some one called to the negro
to look behind him, and as he did so
he saw the snake and fell over para
lyzed with fear. Mr. Lane then
seized an axe and dispatched the
creature.
Whether the reptile intended to
get a firmer hold on the negro's
clothing and then throw him down
for the purpose of winding around
him and afterwards crushing him to
a jelly preparatory to eating him, or
whether it was a tame snake that ap
proached the boy only with friendly
intent will never be known. An en
gineer of the road says he saw the
monster about two years ago and re
ported the fact, but since then noth
ing was heard of it till yesterday,
when the above facts transpired.
