ghc gilormucj WILMINGTON, N. C. Wednesday Mornino. Aug. 19 BRYAN AT RE D HOOK Cotnpoilna Hi Lemr cf Atwptanoa Mid . Fdtfeo lag Plan for the Campaign. ; By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Upper Red Hook. N. Y., August 18. Mr. Bryan came to Upper Red Hook for quiet but be is somewhat dubious of toe. prospects. He will set to work composing bis letter of acceptance with out delay and wilL probably largely per fect bis plans for tbe campaign wdile here. Last night he telegraphed the president of the League of Pennsylvania Demo cratic Clubs that be would appear at the convention of that organization on Au gust 86tta, instead of tbe date previously announced. An invitation from Toledo has also been received and he will prob ably t peak there on his way home . Mr. Bryan to-day decided to emulate the example of Cleveland and Harmon in the piscatorial fields. Spring Lake.near Upper Red Hook, is said to swarm with bass and pickerel, and a fishing party for the benefit of. the nominee went there this afternoon. His sporting ex perience never extended farther than rabbit shooting, but the visit to this, quiet village, while it involves much bard work has brought about a desire to try his luck with the rod. To-morrow .or next day Mr.j Bryan will take a trip across the Hudson to the Catskills. SPOTS AND FUTURES. j Hew York Ban's Beriew of tbe Cotton Market. Bv Telegraph to the Morning Star. New York, August 18.-The Sun says: Cotton advanced twenty-one to thirty one points, closing firm with sales of 814,000 bales. Liverpool advanced l-16d on the spot, with sales of 6.000 bales; futures there advanced eight and one hall points, closing firm.' To-day's features: The market took the bit between its teeth to-day and raced up hill like a runaway horse. Under tbe influence of heavy purchases to cover shorts, buying for Southern and European accounts and higher cables, prices advanced . sharply. Damage re ports continue to be received in a steady stream, manv of them taking tbe ground that the injury to the crop is irrepara ble. The Weather Bureau repotted a light precipitation in Arkansas, but in Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas there was hardly any moisture at all. Every body wanted to buy while sellers were conspicuous by tbeir absence, and ac cordingly prices shot upward like a rocket. And they did not come down like a stick, either, but on the contrary closed at about the best figures of the day. The Southern spot markets were higher. The receipts were liberal, but they were not a factor in the specula tion. It is entirely a weather market. GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Tbe Yi-ld Will be Hneh Below the Average Effeota of ContiotieetHoi and Dry Went&e. s By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, Aug. 18, The weekly crop bulletin issued by tbe Weather Bu reau this afternoon has the following: - North Carolina Refreshing local showers this week revived and improved crops, though not entirely breaking the drought; heat moderating; cotton pick ing progressing, some top crop forming; late corn badly damaged by drought; fodder being saved; seeding turnips and breaking land for winter wheat resumed. South Carolina Continued excessive heat, with copious though -scattered showers, which checked deterioration but was too late to start new growth of cotton, shedding continues, picking be coming general, condition declined greatly; late corn and fodder are poor; minor crops materially benefitted by rain. Georgia Tbe protracted drought and high temperature continue and all crops are suffering seriously; cotton will be much below the average; it is open ing rapidly and there is general com plaint of bolls dropping; picking is now general; late cotton somewhat revived by showers in a few favored localities. Florida Light and frequent showers, over portions of western districts; else where crops show ill effects of contin ued heat and dry weather; cotton be low the average and in many places the staple is turning yellow and opening prematurely. . Alabama Cotton falling fast under continued hot and generally dry weather; rust, shedding and premature opening: general; picking progressing rapidly, but top crop almost a failure and bottom crop injured. Mississippi Local showers too late for cotton and corn, but benefitting mi nor crops. Cotton picking continues as fast as the extreme heat will allow and the crop will be gathered much earlier than usual, owing to the light yield; cot ton picking will be finished in some sec tions by October latr Louisiana Showers over greater portion of State, bOtgenerally too light to materially benefit crops in northern parishes, though pastures and some late cotton bave revived in localities. Texas Showers in somte. localities over southern and eastern portions bave improved late cotton and the top crop, nihil the ceneral drv weather has been very favorable for picking, which is pro gressing rapidly; the cotton plant is verr small ana tne yieia ugut, except over the southern portion, where tbe crop is fair; a general rain is needed for the top crop of cotton and for fall plowing, but it would delay cotton picking and lower the grade of tbe staple. V Arkansas Drought and hot weather continues; cotton continues to dete riorate through shedding and premature opening of bolls; picking will become general as soon as temperature falls. Corn almost a failure. Tennessee Disastrous drought and heat continue and crops failing fast; cot ton greatly shortened, shedding and' opening rapidly; picking begun. STEAMER THREE FRIENDS Undergoing Invf stigatlon by Customs An thoiltiea at Jacksonville, Horida. By Telegraph to the Morning Stir. Jacksonville? Fla , August 18.

The meet ing was held under instructions from the Treasury Department at Washing ton, which were received late last night, directing that another inspection of tbe steamer Three Friends be made and that a complete report be made to the Department to-day. It was also learned before the Three Friends will be released tbat Captain Broward will be required to make affidavits rela tive to the business of his boat and the business in which she was about to em bark when captured by the Boutwell Sat urday, which he has agreed to do, inas much as the Three Friends has no arms or ammunition aboard and has violated none of the neutrality laws. Captain Frank: Sollee, inspector of tbe custom house in this port, will make a final inspection of tbe Three Friends, in pursuance of the order from Washing ton, and he wJl at once forward tbe same by wire to Washington, when, if tbe inspection results satisfactorily, it is thought that the steamer will be re leased from custody.

ARRANGEMENTS PERFECTED BY THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE. , Ha Adjoatment Made With the Popnllau Committee aa 10 Choioe of Eleotore in Biatea Wbere Faeton - Hae fieen Agreed Upon Chairman Bntler Befaeea to Qlve Any Batia faotory Anaw to Cnafe : man - Jones.' v - By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, August 18. Chairman Jones, of the National Committee, leaves for Chicago to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock over the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. This "was his last oppor tunity to confer with his associates and he improved almost the entire day in tbat work. For several hours he was closeted with Senator Faulkner, Repre sentatives McMillin and Richardson, oi Tennessee, Committeeman Johnson of Kansas. Mr. Evan P. Howell of At lanta, who holds the proxy of his son recently appointed as a member, of the Campaign Committee; Senator Roach of North. Dakota, and Committeman iosepbus Daniels of North Carolina, 'he p:ans ol the chairman, so far as they were necessary, were laid before these gentlemen and the details worked out. They related chiefly to the work of tbe Washington branch of the National . - m t.:i. ca in ... neaaquartcrs, uuui wuica oiuuc win ucj transacted all the literary and newspagA per work, the issuance of documents and the regulation ot prmtea matter 01 an kinds. This subject was carefully con sidered in secret session, and at its con clusion Chairman Jones annonnced that Mr. Clark Howell, being a newspaper man of experience and ability, would be in charge of this work. 'Representa tive Richardson will be his assistant and Mr. McMillin will edit and prepare the campaign book for the National Com mittee. Senator Jones was unable to come to a decision as to the personnel cf bis Exe cutive Committee,, owing to his failure to receive certain telegrams and letters that were expected. He will not, there fore, announce that committee until af ter he reaches Chicago. While the conference was in progress, Senator Mitchell of Wisconsin, who un til recently was an advocate of "sound money" and supposed to be antagonistic to the Chicago ticket and platform, called at headquarters and was invited into the inner room. While here, the Senator gave verbal assurance of his in tention of going into the campaign and aiding in every way possible the success of the ticket his party had placed in Nomination. I VTh mnfr.rr htween Chairman Jones and Chairman Butler of the Popu list committee was not discussed very freely at this meeting, It being under stood that the conference between tbe two chairmen was not of tbe most satis factory character and threw little light upon a situation that appears to be in need of some illumination. The fact that the executive committee represent ing the Populist National Committee is composed of tbe friends of Mr. Watson, the Populist nominee for Vice Presi dent on the same ticket with Mr. Bryan, causes some annoyance to those who are endeavoring to bring about an adjust ment of the question who shall be tbe choice of the electors to be selected in the States where fusion has been agreed upon or where sucb fusion is believed to be practicable. Tbe position of some of the ultra Populist leaders, that Mr. Sewall shall withdraw, is constantly combated by the Democratic leaders, but they have thus far apparently been unable tooffsr any so'ution tbat dimin ishes tbe opposition of tbe Populists to Mr. Sewall, , It is said positively to night that Mr. Butler refused to give Mr. Jones any satisfactory answer to the many queries be submitted at this interview. While Mr. Howell will be nominally in charge of the literary work of the National Committee, the real head of that important branch will be Repre sentative Richardson. Mr. Howell will come to Washington only occasionally and give his .counsel and advice, but Mr. Richardson will remain here and have charge of the headquarters for the National Committee. He will have several of the rooms in the old Worm ley Hotel now occupied by tbe Con sressional Committee, and a sufficient force of men under him to do tbe large task outlined for him by Chairman Jones. Mr. Richardson's experience in the House and his extensive acquaint ance with newspaper men makes him a good person for the work, and he will at once begin tbe labor of reducing the business to a thorough telegraph sys tem. POPULIST PARTY Will Haye Headqaarterain Washington City and Chicago Chairman Bntler Talks. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. ' Washington, August 18 The Pop ulist party, like tbe two old parties, will have two headquarters, the main office to be in Washington and the branch in Chicago. This may be reversed, but the understanding upon adjournment of the rather informal meeting of the Executive Committee of the National Committee this afternoon was as stated. Tbe three members of the committee who were here vesterday Messrs. Edgertoh, of Nebraska, Secretary Reed, of Georgia, and Washburn, of Massachusetts were joined this morning by Senator Marion Butler, of North Carolina, chairman and J. R. Sovereign, of Ar kansas, Master Workman K. of L., and Dr. C. F. Taylor, of Pennsylvania, who met shortly after noon in Senator But ler's room at the Shoreham. Tbey were in session abont an hour and after tbey had separated for lunch Chairman But ler detailed to the newspaper men what had been done. To a reporter for tbe Southern Associated Press Senator Butler said: "Oar meeting this morning was largely informal and no definite ac tion was taken upon any subject. " ' Nearly all of the session this morn ing was spent in hearing reports from the several members. Ever since the St. Louis Convention my time has been so taken up with affairs in my own Stite, that I have given attention to only such national matters as demanded instant action. Therefore, I desired before en tering formally upon the transaction of business, to learn what my - associates could tell me of the condition of things in their respective territories, I may say, without going into details, tbat tbe re ports were far more satisfactory than I had reason to look for. Mr. Dore, the California member, has sent a written re port of the condition in his State and on the Pacific coast generally, which thows that things are all right there. Califor nia is absolutely sure for the silver can didates. ' And the same is true of other States in the far West. "No action was taken upon the loca tion of beadquartets, although it was dis cussed." ( A COLD WAVE la Nebraita and the Adjacent States. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Omaha, August 18.

YACHTING ACCIDENT At the London Began ot the Boyal AU bsr; Club A Collision In 'Whloh One . of the Yaohta Wa Dismasted and tbe Owner Killed. ': By Cable to the Morning Star. . . ; London, August 18. Tbe Royal Albert Yacht Club regatta was contin ued at South sea over the forty-six mile course sailed yesterday. The v starters in Ihe big race were the Ailsa, Britannia, Satanita and Meteor. The boats were started at 10 o'clock. The yacht -race for small raters started at 11 o'clock over the same course as that sailed by the big yachts, but only once rounded twenty-three miles. Tbe starters were the Saint, Niagara. Samphire, Audrey, Penitent and Isolde. The prize war 15 pounds to the winner. While both races were in progress the Meteor came into collision with the twenty-rater Isolde, dismasting her and throwing her crew into the sea. All of tbe boats stopped immediately and be- gan tbe rescue cf the Isolde's crew, which was accomplished. The races were then abandoned. The big boats had finished the first round of the course and were just starting upon the second round when suddenly the boats of both classes seemed to have become jammed together. The Isolde, which was sandwiched between two yachts of tbe larger class, received a severe blow from the Meteor, causing her mast to snap in two and fall overboard. ' The shock was a heavy one, causing the Isolde to careen, and as she did so all on board were spilled into the sea. Her owner. Baron von Zedwitz, was struck on the head by a block or piece of broken mast. He was unconscious when he was taken out of the water and in tbiS condition he was hurriedly con veyed on board a steam yacht to the club house of the Royal Victoria Yacht Club at Ryde, where he received every possible medical attention. It is under stood that he didfnot regain conscious ness and died soon after reaching the club house. All of the yachts and clab bouses at Spitbead are flying flags at half-mast in consequence of tbe Baron's death. The crew of the Isolde expe rienced some narrow escapes, but fortu nately all of them were rescued. A sailor belonging to the . British gun boat Ant, which was lying at anchor near the scene of the collision, rescued one ot the Isolde's men in a drowning condition. He could not have been revived in thirty seconds longer. The accident cast a gloom over everything and the races were abandoned for the day. The Isolde was examined after being towed to Portsmouth and it is found that besides being dismasted and having allot her gear swept from her deck, she has a large bole stove in her bow. , m' FELL FROM A POLE. Madame Soroho Injured at Owino Oak Wblle Giving a Mimlo Iiiie , Saving Exhibition. 1 Tbe following from the Baltimore Sun will ' be read with interest here, where Madame Sorcho. with her hus band, gave exhibitions during our last "Welcome Week:' -i v Madame Sorcho, who with her hus band, Capt. Lewis Sorcho, is giving ex hibitions at Gwynn Oik of the working of a life-saving station, accidentally fell from tbe top of a 60-foot pole at a per formance yesterday and narrowly es caped death. She was waiting at the top of the pole to start across the boat lake at GyynnOikon a Iife-liie, such as is thrown by United States life-savers to shipwrecked vessels. Tbe pole is kept stationary by means of three steel guy lines fastened to the ground by iron rings. Tbe tension on tne wires re-, quires wrought-iron rings to be used, and Capt. Sorcho had purchased tbe rings a day before under tbe impression tbey were of the proper kind. Instead the rings were C2St-iron, and they; snapped suddenly when the extra weight of Madame Sorcho was added to tbe strain. The rebound of the pole as the steel guylines curled around it caused Madame Sorcho to lose her balance and fall. . With great presence of mind she put out her hands as she went flying off the top of the pole and clutched one of the slackened guy-lines. The impetus of her tumble, however, was too great to be overcome and she was sent flying toward tbe ground, turning a complete somersault. When within twenty feet of the ground Madame Sorcho again came in contact with the pole at.d this time got a firm hold on one of the guy-lines. Tbere she held until Captain Sorcho climbed to her and brought her safely to the earth. In her two tumps against the pole Madame Sorcho was severely bruised on the sides and hips by the iron steps that run from the bottom to the top ot the pole. Sbe was not seriously hurt, al though tbe wounds made by tbe iron points of the steps were painful. She was able to return with assistance to her boarding-house. AN EMPHATIC DENIAL By Hon. Wru. J. Bryan that . He Has I Ever Been in the Fay of Mine Owners ! Or Any Bimetallio Organisation Telegraph to the Morning Star. Upper Red Hook, N. Y., August 18. On his return from his fishing trip to night, Hon. Wm, J. Bryan gave out a prepared answer to the allegations made by Senator John M. Thurston .that Mr, Bryan was in the pay of the mine owners. He denied the al legations without qualification, and practically invited the Republican National Committee to make the charge official, in order that be might be given a chance to show exactly what his In come had been and from what sources it was derived. . Mr. Bryan's statement is as follows : "I have already denied this charge on several occasions, but the reiteration of it by Senator Thurston, a distinguished resident ofmy own State, justifies me in answering it again. I have never at any time or under any circumstances been, in the employ of any mine owners, individually or collectively, directly or indirectly, nor have I ever been in the employ or been paid by any bimetallic organization. Aside from my editorial salary of about $150 per month, paid by the Omaha World-Herald, and a small amount de rived" from the legal profession, my in come since I retired from Congress has been derived fromvlectures before chatauquas, lyceum and lecture bureaus, which huve usually paid me a fixed sum, and from contributions made by the people ot the localities where I have spoken." There are many buyers In the New York dry goods market just now, and Indications are in favor ot a considera ble amount of business being transacted during the next few days. Drives in staple lines of prints have been the most prominent feature with jobbers. At Philadelphia yesterday the Treas ury received $15,000 in gold in exchange for the new $5.00 silver certificates. . CASTORIA For Infants and" Children. Thifko ilalls slgwtwt tt PUBLIC SPEAKING.

Six thou sand people took part in a street pat ade and fifteen thousand listened to speeches by John Lind, a former Re publican and now candidate for Gov ernor on tbe Democratic ticket, and Congressman Towne last night, when tbe Bryan campaign was opened in Min nesota. Such a political demonstration has never been known before in the his tory of this State. As the parade passed the St. Louis Hotel, from a balcony ot which Lind and Towne reviewed it. the" enthusiasm was intense. Organized labor was out in full force and the banners they carried were full of silver sentiment. Tbe union. waiters formed themselves into squads of seventeen, sixteen of whom were dressed in white and one in gold. Wisconsin sent a delegation of about 1,000. Among the mottoes were, "We lead, let Europe follow," ' Minnesota and Wisconsin join bands. 16 to 1." Down with Mark Hanna," and "Tbe people, not money, shall, tule." Both speakers paid high tributes to Biyan and Sewall and the mention oi the sil ver standard-bearers was received with tbe greatest enthusiasm. It was a re markable contrast ti the Republican' demonstration last Saturday night, when about 4000 heard Senator Thurston speak, and be viewed a parade consist ing of 350 voters, exclusive of bands.
