Jjtffii 9 HIGH PRICES FOR SPIRITS WILL CONTINUE FOR 1899. j Diirinn of Prominent Naval Stores j Men As to the Futore of the Tar peathie Market ' . .. The following article from the Sa vannah Morning News regarding tbe condition of tbe spirits of turpentine market of that city will be interesting to Wilmington dealers:; ..' "TWdavs of 25 to 30 cents spirits of fiirnnntine have ended." said a promi nent naval stores factor to a Morning News reporter yesterday. "I am satis fied that last year reacnea me m&ii mnnV TTad it not been for the freeze this year's crop would have doubtless equaled or perhaps excelled last year's and established the high-water mark for the trade. . As it is now, last year's crop is likely to prove ihe record crop. "As the result of the freeze the yield this year is estimated to be 20 per cent, less than it would otherwise have been and the crop is expected to fall 15 per cent short of last year. Both operators and factors were badly fooled by the freeze. There was some talk or damage to the trees just after the severe cold wave ini February, but little impor tance was attributed to it, and the mat ter had teen almost forgotten until the noticeable shortage in the yield this summer brought the report very forci bly to mind, uperators generally re ported that their crops were yielding anywhere from 10 to 33i per cent, less than they had a right to expect, judg ing from their experience in former years, and the reaucea receipts nave vermed tneir reports. , The factors usually estimate that one half the crop will be received by Aug. 1. The four months or Apru, Mav and June furnishing one-half the year's supply and the remaining eight months tne other half. IUs estimated that something over half the crop is now in. -This causes the factors to believe that the present high prices will be maintained for some time to come. Spirits were quoted yesterday at 471 with a steady demand for do mestic supplies and several transac tions were made at this ngure. it was freely predicted that the price would po to 50 cents before the end of the week and that in an proDaDimy it would reach that figure to day. With the exception of a few small contracts sold for September the work of filling contracts will be completed this month and a great burden will be rolled from the minds of factors and operators alike. The amount of con tracts sold last spring was unusually large ; and the unexpected shortage in the crap has forced the factors to strain every nerve in order to fill the con tracts which theyTiad sold for them selves and their customers. Many operators oversold their production, no allowances having been made for the effects of the freeze upon the yield, and the buying of spirits to fill these contracts has had a great deal to do with the abnormal conditions of tbe market. - "There will be less surplus to be car ried over April 1 than in any year for a number of years past. Hence I am inclined to believe that high prices will continue indefinitely. The day of 25 and 30 cents spirits has pass ed. The crop has reached its maxi mum, and with the increasing demand every gallon of spirits which can be produced hereafter will be in demand. The high prices received this year will undoubtedly encourage the operators to make extra efforts next year, but there are a number of things which contribute to prevent any great exten Bion i of business. The ' main cause which will contribute to confine the business within present lines is the lack of labor. Turpentine men have more difficulty every year mobtain-tj ing a supply oi laoor. xnere is iiui t f , 1 mi . sufficient labor in the turpentine belt at present, and the demand is not likely to be supplied. The Carolina have been drained and agents who go there every season bring back fewer laborers each time," TO FIGHT THE ROUND BALE. OPPONENTS OF' THE GIGANTIC1 TRUST ORGANIZATION.

Three Men Were Arrayed On One Side and One Man On the Other. FULL QUARTETTE KILLED. AH the Participants in the Pight Were Men of high Standing Trouble Grew Out of An Old Grudge Between Two of the Participants. By Telegraph to the Horning star. Shrevkport, La., Aug. 19. News has just reached here from Lake End, Natchitoches parish, of. a desperate fight between Callie Brown, Robt. L. Brown and Dr. W. H. Glover on one side, and B. G. Freeman on the other. Freeman shot to kill, and with his first shots Callie' Brown and Dr. Glover fell dead. The duel occurred in Frte man's store. The third shot from F.-ee-man's rev lver felled Bobt. L. Brown, who pleaded with Freeman to spare his life. Tbtflatter allowed Brown to leave tbe front door. Brown stepped to the door, firing at Freeman as he went. The latter, though wounded, -sent a bullet through Brown's breast. Both heu A t'esq. All the participants in the duel wera men of hiffh standinir. Freeman was a relative of Sheriff Freeman, of Natchitoches parish. Dr. Glover en joyed a large practice in the commu nity, and the crown orotners were men of means and respected. The trouble grew out of an old grudge be tween Callie Brown and Freeman. About an hour before the tragedy oc curred Freeman and Callie Brown had a difficulty in which several shots were exchanged, but neither was hurt. The men summoned their friends and the fight was renewed. . DREYFUS' COURT MARTIAL. Rumored That Orders Will be Given to Withdraw the Case Against the Prisoner British Opinion. Bv Cable to the Moraine Star. London, August 20. The Paris cor respondent of the Sunday Special says: "The government, I understand, has decided to arrest General Mercier. It is rumored that orders will be given to withdraw the case against Dreyfus, it having been proved that the docu ments relied upon to establish his guilt are forgeries." Thomas Terrell, (j. U., one of the leading! jurists in England,, who has attended some of the sessions of the Dreyfus court martial, says : "There is an air of unreality about the whole proceedings. Dreyfus alone seems to be in earnest. No fierce con flicts of intellect occur between coun sel as would be the case in England, and in my opinion the president of the court has already decided the question in favor of acquittal. This appears to be the case from his evident anxiety to preserve an air of complete impar tiality and though on occasions he is unable to conceal his hostility to the defence, his intention plainly is to ac quit. The court martial is as fair as a special jury sittiDg without legal as sistance can be. The opinions it will form must be feeble and its judgment cannot have the least weight to the legal mind. Much prejudice is confounded with patriotism on both sides, but instruc tions from the superior officials of state will outweigh considerations of legal evidence."
