Messekgek Bureau, I Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 2. f; Collector E. A. White tells me there is no foundation for the telegram Irom, Raleigh in the New York Tinws to the cueci tuiib ilmAvcs auu jig uou luuu iy Washington Citv, and that the revenue districts in this State are to bo consoli dated. Collector White says Eaves did not go to Washington, but went home, while he went to vVashington in regard to entirely different bubiness. The districts matter was not even men tiioned. Mr. White is opposed to it because in case of of a consolidation he would have to leave here. He would not think of taking charge of both and having whiskey stamps issued any where else than here, at Raleigh. The truth of the matter appears to be that Eaves, when he gets out of his collectorship will be given a! revenue agency. Thai pays $7 a day and all expenses, and is a good place. Yesterday an engineer of the lucn mend and Danville railway was noticed in Upchurch farm, south of here, mak ing a survey for a branch railway, which will leave the main line near the wagon factory and run a mile to a point on the farm, where a new cotton fac tory is to be built. The factory is to be of the same desicrn as the one recently completed. The same contractors have offered to do the work for $10,000 j less, if the factory is built on level ground. Raleierh is to have a boom, it is a real pleasure to know that just south of here a manufacturing town is to be established, on a magnificent site.! For a vear the idea has been considered. It is now matured. The town will be on some errandlv sweeping hills and will command a fine view of Raleigh, It will have a line of railway, water, electric lights and sewerage, as well as a line of electric cars. All this means business I The men who are! in the thing this section has ever known. The Albemarle and Raleigh jrailway. it is said, will enter the city very near the new town or suburb. There is a general hope and belief that the Atlantic Coast Linej will get the terminal facilities it so much de sires here, in the New Union depot. Not onlvi will this give a handsomer and larger depot, but it will add im mensely to the public convenience, to which so little thought has all these years been given, as any one will admit who has seen the present depot accom modations. What a stir the editorials in the Proqrcssice Farmer, cn Vance, did make this morninar. The Mews and Observer turned its eruns on Col. Polk, for the attack on that paper. The State Clxron- icle was also heard from in regard to Vance. A prominent ex-Alliance man said to me last night that he really believed the editorials would cause a split in the Alliance. It looked that way from his point of view. There was frequently heard this morning the remark that the Democratic party wouldVj suffer-by this reopening of an issue which it was hoped was ended weeks ago. Another gentleman said to me to day that the only earthly chance to defeat Vance was by a combination of Alliance men and Republicans. The eastern! counties, he told me, would send hero solid Democratic men, "in structed for Vance, (save from the black district) and the matter depended on the white Republicans who might be sent from the Western counties. There were twenty-five deaths here during jAugust. ; The people here con tinue to be very healthy, i There is very little fever. I Maj. W. A. Guthrie, of Durham, who had for years been a well known Re publican, yesterday withdrew from that party. ! j Mention was made a day or so of the suit for damages by Mr. Kirby Smith against the University trustees, etc. Bv a letter from Chapel Hill your cor respondent is informed that there is an opinion that President Battle was justitied in issuing the warrant as cir cumstantial evidence pointed-to Mr. Smith as one of the offeEders in that mutter of the painting of the Caldwell monument. President Battle derived the information on which he acted from otlicers of fthe University. Among the recent gifts to Trinity College, at Durham, is a cash one Suffi cient to build and equip a first-class school of mechanical engineering, Jor the special purpose of training young men for tho professions of practical machinists, electrical engineers and master mechanics. This school will have a four years course of study and 6hop work. i The plans and specifications for the main building of Trinity College are aow open for inspection by contractors at the Architect s offce on the college grounds at Durham. All bids will have to be in the Architect's hands by Tues day, September 8th. This will give at least two aod perhaps three months of the best building season of the year toward, the completion of this building. The contracts r the other two build ings will be given out as soon as possi ble after September 8th. The fall term of the college opens in the old buildings at Trinity College in Randolph .county with very hopeful outlook. . The management has re opened! the preparatory department and enlarged and perfected the curric ula of study in the college.

The Louis ville and Nashville cannonball, which left here at 8 o'clock last night was compelled tne messenger to give up the contents of the safe. It is not yet known what is the extent or the loss. Having secured the valuables, the rob bers jumped off and took to the woods. The first news of the robbery was re ceiyed in Mobile by railway officials, and was out meagre, lne train was held up about half a mile above Flama- tion junction and the people there knew very little of what occurred fori the train was delayed seven minutes only and there was not much chance of learning what occurred. Engineer Bob Sizer says that he was pulling off - the junction and just as the I train, which is a through express from New Orleans, got under way he turned around and saw a man standing near him. : Be fore he could ask a question or look twice two big revolvers were in his face. He was told to run his train up to ! .bscomDia river Bridge some miles distant and stop on! the bridge. There was nothing left for him to do but obey and he did so, and as the train stopped on tne bridge tne engineer was told to get off his engine and did so. Then the robbers directed Sizer to go to the express car and force an entrance, a robber putting a heavy mallet'in his hand. Sizer did as directed and burst open the car door. Express Messenger Archie Johnson was stand ing in his car with a pistol in his hand, but. seeing bizer, lowered it. The next minute he was covered and told to lay down his gun and he obeyed. Tnen tne roober standing in tne car door compelledthe messenger to open .the safe and hand him the money While this operation was going on the fellow was standing in the door cooly looking at his victim and firing first to one side of the train and then the other to overawe passengers. When he got the money the robber told Sizer to follow him.- The man showed the way to the engine bade Sizer pull out and with a parting shot and wild yell dashed off in the bushes and was lost to sight. A posse has left Flamatoii and another has left Mobile in pursuit of the robbers. Some sur prise is- expressed jhere that the rob bers selected this particular train as it is well known that j other! trains carry most of the express money. No. six, the robbed carrying very little at any time and a small amount on this occa sion; 'j ' It is said Rube Burrows was recently seen In Florida andj there is a possibili ty that he ordered the assembling of his gang at Fiamatoa and joined them there to superintend the proper con duct of the affair, but this robbery looks more like the work of the .celebrated Captain Burch. A careful examination by the express officials here shows that only a portion of the packages in the express safe in the car which was robbed on the Louis ville and i Nashville this morning was taken, and the losses not over $200 They Blew Up a Saloon. KOKOMO, Ind., Sept. 2.-4jessie Aulf's saloon at Greentown, ten miles distant, was destroyed by dynamite at 2 o'clock this morning. . The entire front was blown out and the contents totally wrecked.! The Greentown people have fought the location of a saloon in their town for years, and the fact that Aulf succeeded without trouble in getting a license exasperated i them and they de termined to blow him up.

U 1 The Greatest Oae Kver RaledGreat !- ereaeed Consanaptlea of Cotton by JWeth -era Mill-Interesting StatUtlc. New OiileaNS, Sept. 2--rThe New Orleans Exchange i?u'd yesterday the report of the cotun crop of the Unitoi btatcs for the commercial year ending with the cioe of August, ISA), made up by Secretary Uetter. j The report tats that the total crop amount to 7,311,322 bales, exceeding the largest crop c$er grown by 2V,4si pales, and the crop of lat year by 373, 032. The htatemeot will iear the clos est scrutiny. The rejwrt ebjwts to the method of deducting cotton consumed n the Southern cotton ixrts from the total of cotton shipped acro the Ohio, Mississippi and Potomac river. The Secretary has obtained reports from pvery mfll in the Southland claim that his statement does ndt contain a single element of estimate. The total Southern consumption for the pat year is reported at 616,363 bales against 4M.wo lat year. The number of mills in operation is 2T0, with 1,5G5,191 spindles. Thirtv hine now mills, with 241,Stl spindle, iave commenced working during the year and fifteen new mills have leen completed and will be at work this (fall. Forty-four mills are idle, a num ber of which expect to start up again at an early date. The total number of mills in the South is now 33, with 40,- 819 looms and ,S19,21 spindles. j The increase of spindles during the I past year is equivalent to neariy one half of the entire number rejiorted in the South by the census of lssO. The ten9us of that vear showed 1G4 mills with 661,360 spindles. The gain with ln the past ten years has been 172 mills with l 'Hfi? snindles. the iucrease in the number of bales of cotton consumed having been 357,615 or more than lbU per cent. j With reference to the cotton move ment for the year, the statement makes the net receipts at delivery ports 5,857,174, a gain over last year of 3V I 829 bales: the overland direct Northern a gain over last year oi reign exports, including 55,491 to Canada, were 4,t55,931 a gain over last year of 165,253. J The takings of cotton during the year for consumption in the United states amounted to 2,348,152 bales. Of this 1,799,528 bales went to Northern spinners, against 1,78-5,979 last season. This shows an increase of only 15,279 bales, against an increase in the South of nearlv 68.000 bales. M Not only is the crop of 1SS9-90 the largest ever produced, but; it bas moved off with unexampled rapiauy and brought full prices throughout the i year, netting to the farming interest a handsome surplus. I One of the curious featuresof this year's movement was the shipment of more than 2,000 bales of American cot ton through Ontario via the Canadian Pacific railway to Japan, fifty bales were also shipped to Japan from the 'port of New York, j , The Liverpool Failure. New York, Sept. 2 It is stated in Wall street that Steenstrand, the Liv frnl tmtton merchant, who was also known as the cotton ! king, whose fail lure is announced to-day, is estimated to h worth $7.50.000 to 1 1.000,000 and car- ;b jri ried a line of 100,000 to 12.5,000 calls or nar ontion. It is considered a bad ifailure and is due to the recent heavy declines in spot and early delivery cot ton. : Liverpool, Sept. 2. The brokers of Steenstrand, the noted cotton dealer. I whose failure is announced, closed all his transactions yesterday in accor dance with a private arrangement I which provided for his paying to them m cents on the dollar. The posting of Steenstrand was the cause of a heavy ."fall yesterday morning in the cotton market, but prices recovered arter it became known that his transactions had been closed. Brokers dealing with him have been particularly care ful to have everything hedged, K) the crash did very little harm in tbe cot- ' ton market. A few young and unex perienced firms are the only sufferers. A year ago Steenstrand possessed 200,000. It is asserted that he now has nothing but the furniture of his house. His failure is attributed to tbe fall in prices and the collapse of the cotton corner. His losses during July and August are estimated at 1200,000. Drowned at Sea. San Diego, Sept. 2. The sleon Petrel, commanded by Capt. Wra. li. Hoy, a well-known shipping man, cap sized just outside the harbor yesterday. No one saw the accident. A sharp wind was blowing and it is supposed ,the" sloop overturned suddenly. It waa found by , some returning fishermen who also saw the bodies of two women floating near. They tried to secure he bodies but were unable to do so owing to the high sea. They came to tho city, gave the alai m, and a large feet of boats went out to search for the bodies, but without success. There Were six persons in tbe yatch, all un doubtedly drowned. The occupant .Were Captain and Mrs. Hoy, Mrs. Wal lace, daughter of a Presbyterian min jlster of this city, and a lady and two children whose names are unknown. Jit is believed the bodies have been all carried out to sea by the tide. A Fatal Accident. New Orleans, Sept. 2.
