Elder McPheeters, of Raleigh, stated that Raleigh had proposed not to stand in the way of Durham for the place of holding the next session, and that Dur ham's representative had arrived with her invitation after the choice was made.

Baldly Williams Hams the "Black bals" Down Grower's Throat-Note of Politics and Business. . (Special Cor. State Chronicle.) Winston, Oct. 24. Yesterday Hon. A. H. A. Williams and John M. Brower spoke in tha opera house here to a tre mendous crowd. The audienece 5yasnot exactly bored, but they arroussd no such enthusiasm as was seen here Tues day when Billy Barber made the water hot enough to set the hair and gave Tom St ttle a shave so close that I fear his political feathers will hardly make their appearance again soon. Mr. Williams mada an earnest speach and exposed the corruption of tha Re publican party. He dwelt upon the fact that Brower had declared two years ago that if they would elect him and Harri son, give the Republicans the House and the Senate, they would abolish the inter nal revenue laws and enact such meas ures as would relieve the farmers of their oppression. He asked the questiou if they had kept their word. He appealed to the peo ple to judge. Mr. Brower got up and sawed awhile on our ears and nerves, and I don't think a single man here can tell you what he talked about. It was a big chestnut and was heard here on the last Congressional campaign. Mr. Williams in his reply rammed the Farmers' Alliance black balls down Brower's throat. The latter in his speech made fun of Williams being an Allianceman, whereupon Mr. Williams responded that he had no special dislike for the Alliance because it black balled Brower. Hurrah after hurrah rent the air as be talked to Johnnie about those black, black balls that were cast against him. While the two speeches lacked a good deal of coming up to those of the Solici- torial candidates, they were pregnant with argument, proving the fact that r tower wasnoi me man 10 misreprasnc this district longer in Congress. There were few colored people in the gallery who applauded him and I am certain that he gained little and lost much. NO INCREASE OF WAGES PORTED.

It is rumored that with the single excep tion of Uavemeyer's refinery, all the Brooklyn refineries will be closed down. About 2,000 men will be affected. A director of the Brooklyn Sugar Refining Co. mijs his works will remain closed until April 1st., when raw sugar will be admitted free.

To day while in conversation with one of the best informed men in political circles in Rockingham county, I was told that Baldy Williams will carry the county by 800 votes. Maj. J. T. More- head told me yesterday that he would certainly carry Guilford, and that it would not surprise him in the least if the Democratic county ticket is not elected. A Stokes gentleman to-day told me that Williams would get a majority of 400, Barber of 250 and Fulton of 200 in the election in that county, and that the whole Democratic ticket will be electod.

The Commercial Advertiser prints an interview with a Central labor union man on the tariff. He said: "Since the McKinley bill be came a law, not a sinsle report of an increase of wages has como before the union. Such report are made at each meet ing bj representatives of the different trades, if auy increase has been made, and wo hear in same wav of any lower ing of wages There has been no formal discussion of the new law at our meet ing- but there was a general expecta tion that the lav would benefit some of us anvhow. The first report of its effect on wages came a weeK ago, irom a iNew Jersey delegate. He declared that in some of the Patterson silk malls, where the em ployees were given to understand two years ago that the election of a Repub lican Congress meant nisner wages, a redaction of wages was threatened. He saw the manufacturers were grow ing greedier as their profits increased, and the new tanrl was working a posi tive injury to men and women employed in the silk mills. He asked for help for the union if there should be a strike against a reduction of wages. Since then delegates have said similar troubles are reported in some other in dustries on account of the new law. No action has yet bee i taken by the union, but it is likely an official opinion of the law will be given if these reports continue to come in. Jus now we are waitivg to find out the effects of the new protection. The balance t-heetis against it up to to-day. Several unfavorable reports have come in, and not a single favorable one. No trade connected with our union has re ceived a dollsr more in wages in conse quence of the operation of iho law, while prospective reductions have b?eu told of at all meetings this month. So much as to wages. Regarding tho increase in the prices of the necessaries and small luxuries of life, we have no doubt.

It was time for th in to s;op Icing led about like sheep As for him, he was going to the ballot b x on election day and vote as be p'ea-ed and nobody need bet on his voimg for a single man on the Republican ticket.

He said he had seen Upchureh sitting in that office on cold, trotv snowy days when the oftije wras so warm and comfoitable in side that the window glass would b sweating. Around Upchureh would be three or four white men who would all have their feet hoisted upon the tables and all having a good time generally.

By United P ress. New Ytork, Oct. 24. R. G. Dun & 9view of Trade will say: Business continues large in volume and generally profitable. In many branches there is note-worthy expansion on ac count of the new opportunities which the revised tariff gives. Prices of stocks have been industriously assailed during the past week, but declined compara tively little. Though the trunk line asso ciation has made no perceptible progress toward a settlement, the rates charged seem to be rather moresatisfatorily main tained.

The man had oa a coat that was turned wrong side cut. wards and had his hat drawn partly over his face, but Mr. Cross recogniz.d him as Mr. Jack Blaud, of New Hope township, and called him by his name. The man at first denied that his name was Bland but afterwards admitted it. He is a brother-in-law of Dr. J. S.

There are indica tions of monetary pressure at Southern centres, and at Savannah rec3i'pts of 57,- 434 bales of cotton and large receipts of rosin and turpentine make money light; but business is dull at Jacksonville, and only fairly active in the Louisiana re gion. The money markets are on the whole less disturbed than they were a week ago, but there is an increasing scarcity of funds at some of the western and southern centres. The markets for breadstuff's continue to advance. Wheat has risen 13 16cent during the week, corn nearly 1 cent, ai:d oats nearly 2 cents. The foreign demand affords no support to this speculation, and the e xports are far below those cf the corresponding week last year. The market for cotton has yielded a six teenth, and while exports are very lieavy, the reports indicate the largest crop ever grown. Business failures during the last seven days numbered for the United States, 203; Canada, 22; total, 225; as compar ed with a total of 227 last week, tor the corresponding week last year the figures were 225, representing 183 in the United States and 37 in Canada.

It admitted two Territories, Idaho and Wyoming, to statehood, and they are both not as bg as one of your Congressional districts In Wyoaing the Mormons are Democrats and every one of them is disfranchised by its con stitution; in Idaho the Mormons are Re pub'icans and its constitution permits evry man wun nis roriy wives io voir.
