Post and Flagg’s Cotton Letter. New York, Aug. 20. —The cotton market was firmer during the early trudiug on covering promoted by a somewhat bullish weather report in which stress was laid on prematures opening and shedding as a result of excessive heat and drought. Weevil damage, however, remains light. Later prices eased off again on de tailed weather report showing cooler ev rywherc and scattered rains at numerous points in Texas. There was a fair demand from the , trade and from mills to fix prices and jit is believed that many resting or-, j ders of tha t sort are in the market (just below current levels, but there is as yet no demand that will follow advances and that will hardly be in evidence until, both trade and, specu lu<ive shorts see more cause for an xiety than at present and feel less confident of a flood of selling against the crop to start in the near future. There is, however, a very large latent ; buying power which would become effective quickly if crop news should show any important change for the worst. I There are plenty of complaints of ! one sort or another already from pretty much every section and the crop is by no means out or the woods as yet nor is there any sound as surance of 14,000,000 bales or more on which sellers seem to be very con j fid ntly relying. Even with such crop I present prices would not seem much out of line with what would be justi fied by prospective requirements as to warrant the aggressive opera tions for the decline which apparent ly arc being, conducted. .

M. C. A. William Dilger, on trial Wednes day afternoon in charges which grew out of a swimming and diving exhibi tion of his four-year-old girl, June, at the Y. M. C. A. last Friday night, was sentenced to ninety days on the roads by Judge Caldwell. Dilger’s attorney, M. B. Sherrin, gave notice of appeal and bond was fixed at S2OO. Three counts were brought against Dilger. They were for violating the child labor law, assault on a female, and assault with a deadly weapon. He was found guilty by Judge Cald well of violating the child labor law and the two other counts were dis missed. The case came up as a result of the insistence of Dilger at the exhibition that his daughter dive from the spring board. When the child wept, specta tors became incensed and had the warrant for assault on a female drawn. Testimony brought out at the trial by the persons who, witnessed the in dent was that .when the child objected to making the dive from the spring board which is five feet from the water, he insisted, telling her that she had dived from higer places than j that. There was no evidence that he offered any physical violence as had been previously reported. Testi fying for the state were J. W. Denny. Mrs. T. N. Spencer and Mrs. Ralph Boyd. Mrs. Ed Cook, who lives on East Depot street, declared that she saw the child fall from the hood of the automobile where she had been riding to advertise the show, and that Dilger did not pick her up. The child was then placed back on the hood of the automobile, where she continued to ride. This evidence was brought out in support of the attack with a dead ly weapon charge. The defense called J. H. Brown, county welfare officer. Mr. and Mrs. Bandon Means and Sheriff Caldwell to the stand. A letter was read by- Mr. Sherrin from Dr. C. W. Arm ! strong, health officer of Rowan eounty, and also from" the state welfare com | mission. Dr. Armstrong in his let ter declared that the performance of the child was not injurious to its health. ' In making his decision. Judge Caldwell declared that it was as “clear in iny mind as the sunlight on the wall that this is a violation of the chili labor law.”- ’<• , nary A Casualty \ IN BAGGAGE STRIKE ■ • Li— With 800 Men Out, Trunks Move as Usual and Extra Police Have Nothing to Do. New York World. New York learned yesterday how . to get along without baggage transfer companies and save money doing it. \ The strike of the SOP drivers, help ers and clerks of the New York Transfer Company, and the Westeott H Express Company, which had begun at i midnight, did not make a defat in the | life of the city. The strikers stayed at home or went fishing or to ball I games. Taxicabs and independent trucks moved tlie trunks and other luggage the strikers ordinarily have handled. At the railroad stations there was no congestion of baggage and no shortage of cabs. Incoming baggage and baggage to be placed on taxi cabs was hustled by red-capped por ters, who made more money than at Christmas, when the rush is great and travellers are in a giving mood. The taxicab drivers did well, too, for in adijition to the usual tips, they col lected even better tips thuu the strik ers averaged for helping get trunks into homes. Even With this, tlie traveller with one trunk or two small ones save money, unless he lived in the Bronx, for the charge, fixed by law, for tak ing a trunk on a taxi is 20 cents, aN against a minimum of $1 to have it moved by a transfer company. The only difference is that the transfer company is obliged to put the trunk in one's house and the taxi man is not. But witht the prospect that his palm would bo crossed with silver, lie usually was willing tto oblige. The hotels cared for their guests’ I baggiige without difficulty. The com- j mereial houses, whose employees had ! sizeable loads of trunks used trucks j to move them. Neither they nor the taxicabs were molested by anybody, the police on duty as a precautionary i measure finding nothing tot do. “It's the most ladylike trucking l strike I ever heard of.” one of Com- : missioner's Enright’s finest on duty at the Pennsylvania Station explained. “Why, there isn’t even a hard word used.” Delaware Youth Says He’s Dying in South Carolina Prison Camp.
