Charlotte wants an ooera house and plans have already been drawn fort a 830,000 structure. j , ' Henderson Gold Leaf: The success of the Henderson cotton mills is a source of gratification to JThe Gold Leaf. Within less than six months af ter openations were begun the capacity of the mill is to be enlarged to almost double its present output 80 per cent. To this end sthe capital stock has "been increased end new machinery pur-i chased. : Greensboro Record: At the last term of court Mary Harris, a negTO woman who has been in trouble here many times; was convioted of highway rob- bery and sentenced to two years in the penitentiary. Her counsel appealed to the supreme court and Mary I got out of jail, but the verdict of the low er court was sustained and yesterday the woman was called up and again Jailed. She will now be sent on to the penitentiary. : Goldsboro Argus: The death of Oli ver Hicks, an old colored shoemaker, occurred yesterday evening at his home in this city. He was said to be near 70 years of age and was well thought of by the people of both races with whom he had acquaintance. On this market today Mr. Ashley Wal lace, of Johnston county, sold 527 pounds of tobacco which netted him $15fi.58. The death of Mr. John Quint Dupree, a well known and great ly esteemed confederate 1 soldier, as brave as ever wore the gray, who lost his leg in the battle at Drury's Bluff, occurred last Friday at his home In the Bentonsville section, in thiscounty. Ex -Governor R". B. Sherman of Iowa. is visiting the various places of inter est in North Carolina. To an interview er at Raleigh he said: "I like North Carolina. It is a good state a very fine state. It's soil seems to be good and itg natural resources are certainly won derful. Since I have been in her bor ders ' I have seen some magnificent farms. I think, . however, if . you will allow a stranger to make a suggestion, that your state authorities have made a mistake in not doing more to prop erly advertise your state. The outside world has no idea of the i grand state you have here. You should send out more literature and advertising matter and be represented in all the great ex positions." ... ' . ! Winston Sentinel; A horse drover from Virginia, while intoxicated, fell on the -street yesterday afternoon and indicted a painful wound on his head, Which bled profusely. -Mr. Walter Lassiter tells The Sentinel of a strange suicide committed at Selma Friday nigut by 'a young machinist . named Moore, from Richmond, t The young man was at his boar-ing house when he cut the muscles in one of his wrists and bled to death. His remains were sent ,to Richmond for interment. The vote in the house yesterday to annul the lease of the North Caroli no railroad was not quite so close as had been anticipated 60 ayes; 54 noes. It ia thought the bill will pass the senate, also, by a small majority. If so, we presume the next step will be, to test 'the validity of the lease in the courts. If it -is declared legal and constitutional the -lease ; will 'stand. Otherwise, it will te, invalid and the matter will be open for a new deal, which, we' think, will culminate in a lease to the Southern for a shorter term at a better price. ' Asheville Citizen: Sheriff Nichols,1 of McDowell county, wajS here Monday night in search, a negro wanted! -in McDowell cpynty for murder, and who was. supposed to be in custody here.- When the republicans of North Caro lina were out' of office and uying to get in, nothing so harrowed up their YirtV ous souls as to have an etficial ap pointed. They yearned, for elective of ) fices with a yearning that nothiny could satisfy except the offices them jselves. Now that they are in, appoint ments by the governor are good, enough. George S. ' Powell has re ceived a letter that bring eheeFing news concerning he federal prison j that is proposed to be built in the foyth, "The letter is from Congressman ! 'earson and from it it is learned jhe ' has -hopes' that Senator Prltchard aJ he may be able to in the near future locate the proposed prison a some point within tei miles of Asheville. The location of the prison here would, mean an annual expenditure of $200, 000 in addition to the cost of construc tion. ' -4 Raleigh Press: Senator A, Sharpe. of the' Twenty-seventh distriot, has pnfprpl tH rare tor railroad commis sioner,' He has been a member, of the , legislature from time to time for the past twenty years. Rev. Sam Jones has been secured to lecture in this city Wednesday week. The only Sam will no doubt .be a great drawing oard, Mr. Walter Murphy, the, young and .eloquent representative froni Rowan, made -a telling speech yester day, It was a speech which will en title Jkir. Murphy to a reputation i as one of the most gifted and forcible speakers among the' young oratora of the state. Among othfer thing? which Mr. Murphy said in h.l speech was the following; "u4" as a democrat, have Something to -say relative to this bill pf indictment, charging with fraud the governor of North arolina, the presi dent and board of directors of the North Carolina railroad; this act! to invest the governor of the state with absolute, supreme and despotic power, and thi3 farcical comedy of a measure to allow the Seaboard Air Line to, bja come its own competitor and to par allel itself from Raleigh to Charlotte.?' -Mr. Spencer Blackburn is an ora tor of the first water as was demon strated by his eloquent speech on the lease annulment bill yesterday. It was a brilliant effort and the gifted young statesman . from the west received manv compliments on his handsome speech. Mr. Blackburn is one of the strongest and most influential young men in the republican party. , Twq Lives Saved, Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of -Junction City, Illls., was told 'by her .doctors she had consumption and that there was ne hope for her, hut two bottles of Dr. King's New Discovery completely cured her and she says it saved her life. .Mr. Thomas Eggers, 139 Florida street, San Francisco, suffered from a dreadful cold, approaching Consump tion, tried without result everything else then bought one bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery and in two weeks was cured.

The stock market was duller than ever today, the transactions being 106,123 shares, reaching the smallest total for any day this week. The business was almost entirely 1 for professional account. In the early trading the tendency of prices was downward, owing to tne re ceipts of lower quotations from Lon don, where securities were depressed by warlike news from Crete. The foreigners were sellers of international btocas in this market, and 1 ttus en couraged ' the bear raids. The con tinued heaviness of the coal stocks also exercised an adverse influence with the Grangers : and were lower for a time on unfounded rumors that the Burling ton and : Qui'ncy dividend would be re duced. The greater decline was in New Jersey Central, which yielded 2 points to 95.. The other losses were to per cent. When it became known that the directors of the Bur lington had decided on the usual quarterly dividend of 1 per cent, a de cided change In the temper of specu lation took place. The buying was confined chiefly to the shorts, but, nevertheless, prices recovered to 1 per cent, all along the line.. Leather, preferred, Jersey - Central and Lacka wanna led" the upward movement. Lake Shore was exceptionally buoyant rising 3 to "158, which is the' highest price- ever reached. The advance brought out comparatively little stock. As the day drew to a close the bears showed more confidence' and they suc ceeded in brin&ing about a general reaction of 4 to 1 per cent. Jersey Central, Manhattan and Leather, pre ferred, being noticeably heavy. The general market closed barely steady in one. Net changes show gains of to per cent.. Burlington and Quincy leading. Lake Shore jumped 2, while Tersey Central lost 1. The bond market was irregular. Sales footed up $1,774,000. The Chicago Markets. Chicago, February ; 19. Little else but war received consideration in. the wheat market today. The , Grecian Turkish troubles were apparently lh an acute condition and prices of wheat teceived stimulation therefrom. Al though Liverpool displayed little if any concern over the situation, this market was governed by the affairs in the east, as the prospect that general Hostilities would be precipitated was thought to be very promising. The strongest period of the session was near the close, when a press dispatch to the effect that an artillery battle had been fought, was received. The market began firm and ended strong, a net gain of lc being established for the Jay. Cash wheat was firm and to ..c higher than yesterday. Corn derived strength and firmness from wheat- A fair trade was noted, speculation beginning to. show some ittle activity. . Prices advanced frac tionally and held the gain steadily. Cash corn was steady, "whilst trading Aras in progress, the 'nominal close eing firm and ic higher with the fu tures. H $ a ne strength of wheat and corn im oarted firmness to oats and encourag ad some j buying. The business was moderate no interest attaching to it. Cash oats sold at steady prices and closed firm. , Trading in provisions was animated. Pork was in demand, a large portion of the buying of that article being -redited to a large packing house. An dance of 5 to 10c in the live hog market was, apparently the primary :ncentive to purchase. May pork -losed a shade higher than yesterday, Mav lard 5c higher and May ribs un changed, i ' ... ' . PUBLIC OPINION. If the legislature should desire to make a start in buiding roads with he state convicts it might pass a law lirecting tha superintendent of the penitentiary to buy two outfits of ma chinery at a cost of $5,000 each and put iwo gangs .of fifty convicts each to ,vork on a turnpike to be built from Charlotte to Raleigh, or elsewhere in the state. The total cost would be $10.--j tiOO for machinery and about $10,000 for ihe support of -100 convicts, making a cotal of $20,000 the first year. Arter tne .irst year the cost to work one hundred convicts on the. highways would be mly $10,000 per year, as the machinery, would not have to be purchased again, ff the result of a trial with thi3 force should prove satisfactory the plan might, be extended until the entire itate convict force was employed in oad building. The state convicts would of course build main: lines of' -tate roads. Charlotte Observer. There is no particular objection to "Invoking public opinion" upon any proposition, but it is well to bear in mind the fact that -the senate of the United States was created quite as much to resist as to respond to such an invocation. Nor was it necessary to make any exhibit for the purpose of showing that the people of the United States are in favor of arbitration in all cases where that method of set tling disputes may properly be em ployed. This has for a long time been our ; settled national policy, and, al though it has cost us dearly In some cases notably in the fisheries and fur 3eals arbitrations the country Is still strongly inclined to the avoidance of war, so far as that policy may be found consistent with honor. But when the details of an arbitration treaty are before the serrate, it Is not alone the general "question of arbitration, but various international matters that are to be discussed, and some of tHem of a delicate character. It has seemed to us that the determination of such de tails is not one of those occasions on which public opinion should toe esper. clallv invoked.

Wash- The awW- J -the North the present lessee of annual re-' -olina railroad to pay th" preser- .tal is that which gives its or- .t value to the stock. The rons able doubt that exists as to the abil ity of the would-be lessee to pay the rental offsets in a measure the known ability of the other; and to the extent that doubt arises in the 'minds of the financial world, both as to the stabili ty of the lease and the inability of the company proposing to lease to redeem its promise to pay, the value of tne stock, is depressed. In other words, it is the prospect, however remote, of the present lease contract being set aside in favor of a proposition from a party "of doubtful responsibility that depress es the -price of stock; for it does not take a wise man to see that instead of receiving 7 per cent, dividends the stockholder would receive no dividends at all if he were dependent upon a les see that could not comply with the terms of the contract. The lease question is not a political Is sue. The thirty-year lease wa made by a republican state administration. the president of the North Carolina railroad at that time being a republi can, and was sustained by a repub'fnr supreme court. The lease was subse quently sustained by the supreme court when it became democratic- The nine ty-nine year lease was made by a dem acratic administration and has been ap proved by the private stockholders without regard to politics. The at tempt to bring the lease question into politics is utterly inexcusable. Raleigh Tribune. Old People.

M.Today's cotton market was marked by wide and rapid fluctuations. Liverpool this morning cabled, an advance of l-64d there, and our .'market opened 1 point lower than last night's closing figures, May selling on the call at 6.93. Bull manipulation ! and the great strength of March contracts, in sympathy with the demand for spots, started prices upward and the advance was not checked until May had touched 7.04. The enthusiasm then , waned and though the bears "were afraid to raid the market, i its refusal to advance further, together with a little uneasi ness over the Graecc-Turklsh situation, discouraged the bulls and they soon tumbjed over each other in their efforts to unload their holdings. New Orleans sold freely and the decline was quick er even than the advance had been. May broke to 6.91 and closed at 6.92 to 6.93. with the tone of the market easy. For those who will , take their profits when the opportunity presents itself we still favor buying on all breaks. ; RIORDAN & Co. (By Southern Press.) New York, February 19. The Sun's cotton -review says: Spot cotton here, was unchanged, with Bales of 765 bales for spinning. Middling uplands was 7c, against 7c last year; New Or leans and gulf 7c, against 8c last year. Prices advanced for a time to day on covering of shorts induced by higher Liverpool cables and light re ceipts at the ports, While New Orleans also bought here. - The improvement, however, was only temporary. The buying, power was soon exhausted. Liverpool sold here; local operators took profits; 4 the overland movement for the week was larger than had been expected; the south sold and in the absence of support prices slowly re ceded and the market closed easy at about the lowest figures of the day. The near months showed the most firmness. The quantity to come into sight for the next week is estimated at 105,000 to 110,000 bales, against early. estimates of 95,000 bales. Mr. -Hester of New Orleans gives the quantity brought into .sight as 105,705 bales, against 122,578 last year; 118,766 in 1895, and 76,401 in 1894. Fayettevilie News. Correspondence of The Messenger.) Fayettevilie, N. C, February, 19. At the new Holt factory,- today, the first bale of cotton was run -through the machinery. This splendid mill a model of beauty and completeness will soon be in full operation, the neat little village, a hive of industry, and the deep-toned whistle, as melodious as a bell, calling the hours of labor from its lofty place on Massey's Hill.
