MESSENGER BUREAU, f ! " Raleigh, N. C Oct. 19. f Many persons of good judgment de clare that there were 25,0UO spectators at the Centennial parade yesterday, and that your correspondent's estimate of 20,000 was too low. This may cer tainly be affirmed, however that there were 20,000. It is the biggest day on record here. The Centennial address of Dr. K. P. Battle last night occupied an hour and a half in the delivery, and will, when printed, make a perfect history of Raleigh. Miss Minnie Cur tis, a young lady who came here a few years-ago Irom tne JNortn ana wnoss father is pastor of a church here, won the $25 prize for the poem. : Her poem was a irood one. '. This morning all the Incoming trains were filled with people. That contin-. ued to be the case all day, and it was clear that there will be a crowded city. and a crav one. all the Centennial week. To the great regret of maiiy residents the place for to-night's grand display of fireworks was changed from a pub lic tquare in the heart of the city to a large field on the northern suburbs.: There were two carloads of fire works and two experts had charge of them, having been sent here by Pain, the furnisher.

It wilt take the place of another count which was at first set for that day, Fri day, namely the laying of the corner stone of the State Confederate monu ment. For Bome reason not known to your correspondent the corner stone ceremony Is postponed until later. It is greatly to be regretted that it could not have taken place this week. This was the time for it, of all times. ! The Supreme court, like everything else, took a holiday yesterday. Today it went to work on the appeals from this, the Fourth district. C. C. Miller, of Hertford, has been appointed a notary public. The Railway Commission began a session bore to-day. A case of interest came up from Mt. Airy. The Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley refused to de liver a hearse, for which the purchaser showed a bill of lading, informing him that the f reieht rate elven on the bill. was too low. The buyer claimed that the freight must ba delivered in accord ance with the bill of ladlDg. Tne case was deferred for a few days, so as to give Mr. Rose of the railway an oppor tunity to be heard on his side of the case. i . The attendance at the State fair is certainly very gratifying. The facili ties for getting there are not surpassed anywhere. The electric cars are hand ling -a great many people. The fair ground trains on the railway leave the new union passenger station, nd are also hauliDg heavy loads. There Is more general interest in the fair and President Battle and Secretary Ayer no doubt are much gratified. The racing is good, and there are many horses on the grounds. There are no swindling games, but never were there so many sideshows and minor amuse ments. ! .

Slxteeiv hundred tickets to the dedication cere monies', stolen from the office of Secre tary Culp, of the ceremonies committee. are on the market and a large number of forged tickets are also on sale. The scnooi children this morning celebrated Columbus Day. Youthful enthusiasm was given the widest play A committee representing the State and city superintendents had arranged a programme for the celebration in the public schools and the children executed tnis order of exercises with a vim. When the schools opened no union or concentration of pupils was attempted, but the exercises began simultaneously in scores of . school buildings. The rooms were all deco rated appropriately to the occasion and so as to commemorate the great dis covery. The first exercise wbs reading of President Harrison's proclamation This was the followed by a Hag raising and the pupils saluted the colors. They also pledged their allegiance to the flag in concert and sang "America." The next few hours of the programme was reading of the Scriptures or some acknowledgement of a Divine Being The school tnen joined in singing "Co. lumbus Day," atter which the prO' gramme was varied according to the grade. In the primary grades the little ones recited patriotic verses and sang little songs, while in the grammar and high school grades historical essays were read, declamations delivered and also Pinging. The railroads to-day were nearly swamped in the tremendous rush of people from all over the country. Extra trains were counted only in dozens. From every pas-enger depot in Chicago people poured in floods, and for a time after the arrival of every train the sidewalks in the vicinity of the depots were impassible. The number of trains arriving in the early part of the day was nothing compared to tna evening and what will be the next three days coming. The sale of tickets at reduced rates for dedicatory exercises did not be gin until to day And it was only people at points quite close to the city that could ayail themselves of the opportunity to reach the city in the early portion of the day. From all points near and tar, however, orders were pouring in od, the operating department of the different roads fcr extra eq jipments, eaies of tick ets being lar u excess ot tne anticipa tions or preparations made to accomo date the people.' -. Ween it wad announced tnat tne public would not be admitted to the grounds at any time during the dedica tory period tne people at distant points threatened not to go to Cnicago at an and agents of many roads concluded that it would be unnecessary for them to make aoy speeial preparations. When it was announced later, however, that the public would be admitted to the grounds Saturday the people changed their minds and determined to come oh any way, , Now the roads are being rushed as they probably never were before. Every train brings hundreds of visitors to the, city. Many of the most prominent partic ipants in the official ceremonies are already oa the grounda..

Hester, of the New Orleans Cotton . Exehaafc, Interviewed on the Blatter In Dispute. New Orleans, Oct. 19. The Tic ayune to day publishes a lengthy inter view with Henry G. Hester, secretary of the New Orleans Cotton i exchanged relative to the recent action of the in-i stitution in refusing to make any charge in the form of contracts, j Hess ter show that out of 1,000 leading Southern interior cotton centres, which the St. Louis Republic states were fur nished with blank petitions favoring a change, only twenty-eight 'towns re- sponded. He says ihat before the publication of the St. Louis Republic article there was very strong senti ment in favor of the change to alow, middling clause, but that the fact, de veloped by the St. Loui Republic, that over 970 leading Southern centres failed or refused to endorse the pstiiion for the change is mainly -responsible for the revulsion in sentiment in New Or leans. Hester says that the report sent by the Galveston exchange to bt. Louis and other exchanges is ex remely dlff ereot from those sent to New Orleans; resolutions sent to New Or leans declined to join in opposing the -Hatch bill because of ihe d ffdreoce of ! opinion entertained by members of the Galveston exenange; tnat in; me reBu , lutions sent by Galveston to isst. iioois nothing whatever was said about tn:s difference of opinion. Galveston was only asking for a change in the form o contract. : i In answer to the question what i Gal veston wants, Hester says his peop' e are uncertain, but adds that he has offi cial data Indicating that the wiBh of; the Galveston exchange for the passage m Jl. . TTAtnlk ! or some sacn measure- aa iub nwu bill is due to the belief that the Hatch . measure will Btop dealing in free oni bord and forward delivery business. ! thereby greatly Injuring the business of small Boutnem towns and driving it to larger cities Hester Insists that the prosperity ot New oriaans and otner large Southern centres must, of neces sity, be based -on the prosperity of smaller commercial communities in the South and that, whereas, much of the . business that was form erly done at large cities is now controlled by interior towns, ior the prosperity of the latter gives ample scope lor brains ana capital oi larger . seaboard cities. Hester also stated that, in common with New York, the belief is firmly entertained that the present form of contract is undoubtedly t ie fairest that could be used for both planter and consumer; that of course the desire of New Orleans is to meet, as far as possible, public opinion aud do anything that would improve the con dltion and enhance tne prosperity oi the cotton planting interest of the SOUth.: V jLATEST FOREIGN NEWS.

The j Democrats had their demonstration last night. Speaker Crisp was given an enthusiastic welcome. He spoke at great length on the tariff question and made a good impression with his logi cal discussion on this subject. The present tariff law, fathered by Mc Kinley, he said, was injurious to the laborer, farmer, manufacturer and pro fessional man alike, for instead of af fording protection it imposed a heavy burden upon them. . The prevailing low prices in tne United states he as sorted, are not the result of the Mc- Klnley law, but haye been brought about by large crops and labor paving machinery. The Force bill and the Southern question were also discussed by him and he denounced former as an , iniquitous measure. A. DAVID AND COMPANY. When tne Iftne'T "" I i . . - I i t !
