WILMINGTON, N; CU SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, DEATH OF ALBERT GORE ; After Brave Straggle, : He Died at Bonaet . Tetterday. After a long and brave battle lor life. Albert Gore died at his residence in this city yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock in bis 87th year. He was the son of William Iredell and Rachel Ann Gore, was born at Little River, S. C, and came to Wilmington with bis parents in 1869. In 1881 be married Miss Bessie Ledford, who with five children, survives him. He began his business life as clerk and book-keeper for his j father, and was afterwards a partner in the firm of Wr I. Gere & Co., and for some time in tbat of-Corbett & Gore. For two years, or more, however, his health had been failing, and he was compelled to aban don active business (almost entirely. Though naturally modest and somewhat reserved in his manner, he bad a kind heart, and those who knew him best were bis warmest friends. Very early in his business life he de veloped a talent for mercantile pursuits, showing excellent judgment and a keen penetration in trying emergencies. But consumption, that instdubus destroyer, fastened its relentless hold on him so early In life as to deprive him of all hope of reaching the position as a man of business which nature seemed to have fitted him for. His family and friends had for some time realized the serious nature of his sickness; but, buovedi up .by the indomi table spirit that was a part of his nature, he was hopeful to the end; and but a short time befcre he breathed his last he told tbe kind friends who were watching by his bedside to go borne and rest that be "would be all fight in a day or two." But even then 'the lamp of life was burning with unsteady flame; and as the last rays of the setting sun lingered on his home, seeming to beckon him to rest, his spirit passed beyond tbe portals of earth to "Tbat undiscovered country from whose bourn No traveller returns." ' "Peace to his ashes.") Consolation to those who loved him so well in life, and who now mourn over his untimely death. "Far may we search before we find A heart so manly and so kind. But not around bis honored urn Sball friends alone acd kindred mourn The thousand eyes his care bad dried Pour at his namea fitter tide.? ', COMPARE THESE FACTS. The Difference Between tbe Prcflta of Enf- glish and Southern Mills. In England Of 71 cotton mill com panies in O dham, 12 showed profits last year of 4.709, or $23500. while 59 showed losses of 43.016. or $215 000 Two cotton mills were offered at auction at Preston. One. with 80 000 spindles, was withdrawn because: the minimum of 6.000 (30.000) was not reached. Tbe other, with 81,000 spindles, was also withdrawn, as the best bid obtained was 3500, or $42,500. -j On the foregoing tbe Columbia State makes this pointed comment: 'In South Carolina The Pacoiet. Clifton, Converse, Enoree, Spartan, Piedmont and Pelzer mills all in a bunch paid out on the 1st inst. $183, 600 in semi-annual dividends, or at the rate of $367,000 a year. " Talka to Young Men. Last Sunday night j Dr. Hoge an nounced tbat be would to-morrow night preach on "The Age j in Which !

"The Young Man and Money." etc Dr. Hoge stated jthat he bad sent out to young men, older men and young ladies circular letters containing practi cal q jest ions an the subjects to be dis cussed, to which he had received fifty or sixty replies. These answers will be utilized as far as practicable. The sing ing will be led by a male quartette. A Talk About Eje. Dr. W. C. Galloway, tbe well-known optician, has promised to give a talk at the Y. M. C.

The talk w 11 be made more interesting b) the use of illustra tions and experiments. There will be no charge for admission, and all men in terested in the subject are cordially in4 vited to attend. Bold Attempt at Robb ry, A bold attempt at house breaking was made about 7 15 o'clock last night at the r -sidence of Mr. Josh T. James, corner of Third and Mulberry streets. A large pane of glass in one of the windows on Mulberry street was cut out with some sharp instrument, but before the robber succeeded in gaining entrance he was discovered and ran off. up Fourth street.'

What the Fop-Bepllospa Propose to Do With Baleigh-Two Flans Are Under Consideration, Just now the following from tbe Raleigh News and Observer will be read with interest in Wilmington and several other North Carolina cities and towns: Ever since the Fusionists read their title clear to the State, and the fullness thereof, they have been talking, and talking, and talking about what to do with the cornucopia of things the god of politics poured into their laps last No vember. And r as the time for action draws near tongues wag faster. One of the pet schemes of these peo ple is the re-districtirg of the cities of the State. It is said that Raleigh. Char lotte, Wilmington, Durham. Winston and other big towns will be sliced up in various ways. Many Fusionists want to be conservative enough, but the most radical element want to gerrymander tbe cities in a way that will turn them over to tbe negroes. Raleigh Republicans are already ar ranging their little schemes cf gerry mander. Two plans of re-districting tbe city are proposed. Both have for their object the turning over of the corpora tions to the hungry Republicans. One ptoposition is to extend the cor porate limits a quarter of a mile all around, by this move bringing in the East Raleigh Republican stronghold. With the capitol tquare as the centre, the plan is to divide the city into four wards, with an equ.il representation in the Board of Aldetmen irom each ward. Halifax, Hiilsboro and Fayetteville streets and Newbern Avenue are pro posed as the dividing lines. Tbe two north wards will be controlled by the Democrats and the two south wards by the Republican's. This; leaves equal power in tbe B jard of 'Aldermen. Ia the event that there was a tie in tbe Board of Aldermen the Mayor would cast, the dec ding vote and bold tbe balance of power. Tbe Mayor is to be elected by popular vote and not' by the Board of Aldermen as at present. Tbe extension of the corporate limits would enable tbem to elect tbe Mayor, the gerrvmandeis think, and thus would they hold the city without making sucb a change as would set the people against them. Another plan is to let the arrange ment of the wards remain as they now are, except to put all north of Martin street into tbe First and Fifth wards ex tending the Tbird watd up Fayetteville street to Martin street: Then to take in enough of the territory east of Wilming ton and west of Salisbury streets to make tbe Tbird ward Republican. This would give the Republicans three wards and the Democrats two. This latter plan is favored by the most radical element, while the conservatives favor the former plan." I. O. O. P.

It is a fact beyond dispute that news paper thieves follow tbe carriers of the Star (on Sunday especially) and steal miny of the papers soon after they are left for city subscribers. It will be easy to capture and punish some of ; these tbieves if thos: to whom thev offer to sell papers will assist in the work. When they attempt to sell a paper without the words ' For Tran sient Sale" stamped on tie margin, it may be taken as almost conclusive evi dence tbat tbe paper has been stolen.

Hubbard, Frloe A Co's. Herlew of tbe Market Speculations aa to the Next Crop. " ." 1 New York. Jan. 3. 1895. The opening of the New Year has brought no consolation to tbe holders of cotton, and the market closes to-night within yiz of Jtbe lowest quotations of tbe year. There is also a feeling of dis couragement regarding the future, wbich is difficult to account for in face of the known inability of the South to produce another large crop of cotton at present prices, even were it not well understood that tbe result would be disastrous to the entire country. A sharp falling off has occurred in the movement of tbe crop as compared with that of previous weeks, but in comparison with last year or. with 1891, tbe receipts still show a movement which is so largely in excess of those years, that there is no change in the current estimate as to the ultimate outturn of the crop. Nine million five hundred thous.nd bales is now tbe accepted commercial crop cf this season, although it may vary a few hundred thousand bales one way or ths other from sucb a yield, depending upon the course of ths market for the balance of the year, and were it not for tbe uncer tainty felt as to tbereduction'in the land devoted to cotton for the ensuing year, the trade would be willing 10 ats ub the surplus of the crop at the basis t f pres ent prices. But it is felt by every one tbat we must look to tbe next crop for relief fr m tbe present over supply, and until it is determined that the South is willing to pursue tbe same course which reduced the crop .of 1893 to 6,700.000 bales, tbe market will be a hesitating one wi h little dispo sition to accumulate more than the nec essary supplies by bo b planters and merchants. Spinners have bought so freely that they are now in a position to await tbe effect cf tbe pressure of the re mainder of tbe crop before taking any further large amount of the raw mate rial. Therefore tbe factor which is be ifg regarded by both spinners and mer chants throughout the world with tbe greatest interest is the prospect of the curtailment of the crop to be planted within the next ninety days. So far as reports have been re ceived from those States using com mercial fertilizers it is probable that there will be a reduction in their use ot at least 40 per cent, as compared with last season, and tbe question of acreage will rtmin to be determined later when the question of advances becomes a mo mentous one with every merchant in the cotton States. In the meantime for the next thirty days tbe pressure upon the market will be felt through the compar ison with other years as we have before mentioned, and it is generally believed that this weight of cotton will be suffi cient to break tbe market to a lower range of prices than those yet touched. On tbe other hand, it must not be for gotten tbat the effect ojt large receipts. or of a light movement, or ot any of tbe other factors wbich control the price of cotton, are discounted in advance ot their occurrence, and it is a question whether tbe reduction in tbe acreage which now seems to be almost a certainty will not be similarly discount ed before tbe knowledge of the actual extent of such a reduction is known. It is this feature of the situation to which we would call the especial attention of our friends, as we are convinced tbat should tbe South reduce the acreage to a greater degree than they did in 1892, the t fleet upon the market would be a sharp one.
