A CHERISHED POSSESSION
Col. Cameron Has a Watch That Was
.. Bought In Liverpool in 1754.
■ ' i (By- -the Associated Press)
Raleigh, N. 0., March 16.—Colonel
Benehan Cameron, of Stagville, possesses
many relics and heirlooms, but one of.
his most cherished possessions is a
watch that was purchased by his great
gtand-father in Liverpool, England, in
lts4. The watch still keeps good time,
said Colonel Cameron. It is wound by
means of a key and the works are hand
somely encased.
(“I have been to the very store in Liv
erpool where this watch was purchased
by my grandfather, in 1754. The store- i
keeper showed me the record of sale.
“But that is not the mqst interesting J
thing about this watch,” continued Col- l
onel Cameron.
“It was carried several hundred yards j
down the river once when 1 Was in a i
railroad 'wreck and the garment in the j
pock&t of which I kept it was found i
lodged in the limb of a tree, but the
watch kept on running. It did not even
'stop.
“That was back in 1890. The wreck j
occurred near Salisbury: I was asleep in ,
a Pullman when it happened. The train 1
fell ninety feet, through a bridge, while j
going forty miles an hour. When I wak- ,
ed up I was pinned in beneath an Upper j
berth. The only response I got to the ]
calls for help I uttered was the hiss- |
ing of the engine. I knew somethina had
to be done right away. I was in water ,
up to my neck. I finally managed to
get' hold of the chains that held the up- j
per berth in place and released them. ,
Then I extricated myself.
“This watch was found later far down |
the river, where it had been taken by the ,
! current when the train fell into the wnt- I
er. I shall never forget that experience.” ]
Colonel Cameron's watch has the mak- i
er's name and the number in it. The j
number is small, indicating its antiquity. ,
The company that made it is still doing I
business. Colonel Cameron said. It has j
put out millions of watches since his was (
purchased iu 1754 by his great grand- 1
father.

BUSINESS AND THE OUTLOOK
Philadelphia Record.
Spotty and irregular conditions are to
jbe found in various lines of trade and
industry, but springtime is expected to
bring about improvement. In spite of
the jinx of Friday, the 13th, the past
[week has found progress in the reports
(to Dun’s from various sections of the
country. Their tenor is that “general
'trade continues In a wholesome position
‘ and results for the first quarter of the
year will disclose further gains in va
rious intances. Reports showing larg
er earnings by different corporate inter
ests give convincing proof of the improv
ed conditions, and more dividend resump
tions and increases have been announced.
While outputs apparently exceed con
sumption in certain lines and some ad
justments are being made, burdensome
accumulations of goods are the exception,
and the close approach of spring is be
ginning to give a renewed stimulus to,
buying.” "
The Credit Clearing House, notes a
substantial gain in' wholesale orders dur
ing the week. The lull of February
has been succeeded by a complete reev
ery in purchasing, with an increase the
country over of 8, per cent, over ihe
preceding week;. The largest gain was
in the Mountain states, with 11.2 per
cent. The Pacific coast reported the
smallest increase, 2 per cent. Compared:
with the corresponding week of last year,
the country as a whole showed a gain
of 2.7 per cent.
February payrolls of'the steel com
panies, while below the same monthJs
record last year, are the largest wage
disbursements in the industry since
April. 1924. The February report pf
production also show* an excess over
January Os two-thirds of 1 per cent. As
to the price situation, what has been said'
already can only be repeated. The com
ment .is made that “some of the ad
vanced prices are virtually forgotten,
while otherg are obtained, on small and
inconsequential tonnages. This leaves
the finished stlel market in general at
Abe level obtajned January ,Ist, but in a
few spots it is a shade easier still. In
the main, however, such advances in No
vember and December ai;e retained.”

earned by domestic’ mills during Febru
ary, compared with 5b8,000 in the same
mouth last year and 590,000 during-Jan
uary. The figures proved to be slightly
above private estimates and, with un
settled weather in the southwest, causd
something of a buying movement at the
week-end. The government report on ex
ports showed a decrease of 24 per cent,
last month from the previous month, but
at that they were far tn xecess of any
other February shipments since the war,
and the takings by domestic mills were
the 1 i'geet on record for February, ex
cept in 1923. Interest is shown in a
wide variety of cotton textiles but pros
pective purchasers appear to be dis
c.mraghd by the high price schedules,
justified by the manufacturers by the
cost of production. The London 6ales
of woof last week showed declines, but
not as great as those in the February
and March sales in Brisbane, Australia. I
The early wool buying in the west lias ]
been begun In Ohio, where it is said a '
substantial amount of wool has been pur
chased on the sheep’s Sack by a buyer
{or Boston interests. The general hide
market continues weak. Recent de
clines in that market have caused buy
ers of finished leather to look for reiuc
bor.fi, but prices have beeh firm on mod
erate business.
Wheat prices had their, greatest break
sci the history of the Chicago Board of
Trade Friday, May wheat dropping 15
cents a bushel under Thursday’s close,”
with the break in ryej about the same.
Wheat showed a decline of 39 cents
from the high point Os the movement.
The collapse has resulted in the final
1068 to the market of public participa
tion, and it is asserted that many of the
speculators have been hard hit in the
decline, which is ereflited to adverse
cable dispatches from Liverpool and to
weather reports showing a wide area of
rpln in the southwest. Saturday’s mar
ket was extremely -fluctuating, with the
close in May wheat at $1.65 5-8.

its failure it ha* exposed gome of them.
So far ae observed the papers aeem quite
willing for a show-down; they have noth
ing to conceal. During dftcuseion of
the bill, which was defeated in the house
by only 29 to 39, Mr. Turlington, of
Iredell, remarked that "there is no more
reason for newspapers to disclose what
is paid them for legitimate business than
there is for a lawyer to disclose what,
he receives from a client.” Notwith
standing the law was defeated, the as-|
sertion is risked here that every news-j
paper will gladly, cheerfully, enthqsias-l
tically, make sworn statement of every i
cent received for political advertising ;if I
fvery .lawyer-legislatitve candidate will}
open op and make public the amount •he
receive* from corporation clients. . It
would certainly be most, interesting read
ing for the folks back home to learn
how many of the lawyer-legislators are,
|or were just prior to the election, and
i will be again when the legislature ad
journs, the retained attorneys of corpo-
public and private, and various
other interests that are much concerned
in legislation.
If the idea is to inaugurate a “come
clean” campaign, the newspapers will
wekom,e it.' Why not proceed volun
tarily, without waiting for a law on the
subject?
