Special to Journal:
i Hattiesburg, Miss., Nov. 5. A race
riot took place at Wiggins near here
yesterday and last night. A negro re
listed arrest, killed the marshal and
his deputy, went home and barricaded
his house, and defied capture. He was
taken jailed and the jail was dyna

many negroes armed and began firing.
Several people were killed on each

J E . Latham's Weekly Cotton Letter.
Special to Journal:
New York, Nov. 3 The decline has
been half a cent a pound since my laBt
letter, and is over $7.00 per bale down
form the top... Cotton is coming into
sight in unequalled volume, and crop
estimates are being increased. There
is considerable difference of opinion
about the size of the crop, and about
the damage done by frosts, and storms
There is nothing unusual at this season
of the year, but as a rule the final count
greatly exceeds popular estimates. The
condition of trado is wonderfully good
and promises to continue good for at
least six months. Tho question nat
urally comes up, has not tho decline al
ready gone far enough? If the cotton
coming in was of good grade, I would
unhesitatingly advise buying for a good
upturn, but if the cotton is of such poor
quality as the talk indicates, spinners
will not buy willingly and as to laying
in reserves, they will not do so of this
quality in large volumes. Therefore
the lower grades must be taken care of
either by farmers holding back, or by
the option markets of the world. Spec
ulators are not inclined to buy cotton
just yet, but the farmers seem willing
to sell on all good advances. . After
such a big decline the market ouht to
be pretty near bottom for the time be
ing, and a good rally would seem to be
entirely n order in the near future.

Special Correspondence.
Raleigh Nov. 3 State Chairman Sim
mons returned today from Morehead
City and Bays everything is all right in
the east. He says that the Democratic
majority in the state this year will prob
ably run very closely with -that two
years ago, this lrrgely depending upon
the turnout of the Democrats since if
they turn out in large numbers the ma
jority will be bigger. ."'
The band of the Third Regiment last
night went to SmithfieW where it gave
a concert and today fc- furnishes the
music at a political rally.'
Adjustant General Robertson says
that there are remarkable few appli
cations now: for discharges from the
National Guard. It -ia thought to be
probable that the Second Regiment will
next year participate in the maneuvers.
The increase in the number of char
ters granted to corporations this year
is so great as to be remarkable.;' Dur
ing the year ended December 1st 1905
there were 696 charters granted, while
during the 11 months of the present
fiscal year the number is 890.
The number of students now at the
Agricultural and Mechanical College is
425. There are 43 members of the fac
ulty. The Rvalue of the buildings etc.
is 1325,000.
It is learned that Commissioner of
Agriculture Patterson is in Johns Hop
kins Hospital, Baltimore, where he has
been operated on. Nothing was given
out in regard to this at the Agricul
tural Department until today though
he has been there since October 1. He
is expected to be back some time this
month.
State Veterinarian Butler is to be at
Baton Rouge on the 12th inst to attend
the meeting of institute workers and
later will go to Jacksonville, Fla., to
attend tne meeting of Commissioners
of Agriculture.
The number of students at the Bap
tist University for women today reach
ed 357. During the year a number of
improvements have been made and the
largest organ in the State has been in
stalled. The total value of the prop
erty is now stated by President Vann
to be $200,000.
It ib learned in conversation with
officials here that there is strong possi
bility of the President commuting to
life imprisonment the death sentence of
the two negrj mutineers now in jail at
Wilmington. The district attorney,
Harry- Skinner, prosecuted them with
great vigor, but now popular sentiment
at Wilmington is very greatly in favor
of a lesser sentence than death. These
prisoners have conducted themselves
admirably during their long imprison
ment. ' It is said that Colonel Skinner
will soon go to Washington and that he
will probably assent to commutation
which has been so urged by the minis
ters at Wilmington and others.
! State Veterinarian Tait Butler was
speaking to your correspondent about
the scarcity of labor in this State and
he says that much of 'it is due to the
way things are managed, the cost of
labor aaving machinery and of the num
ber of one horse farms. He thinks the
latter are very unprofitable and are the
principal cause of the labor scarcity,
saying that instead of three men, each
working one horse, one man ought to
work two and thus leave the other man
disengaged to do other work. He says
that the following out of this plan
would be found that the available labor
would be immensely increased and he
declares that . North Carolina would
really have more labor than many other
State. :Dr. Butler is a verv close ob-
server and no one knows better than
he the resources of the state in an ag
ricultural way, both developed and un
developed. ; .

Greensboro Nov. 5 The two weeks
term of the Superior courtjfor Guilford
adjourned Saturday, the afternoon ses
sion being devoted to arguments on the
motion docket. The jury in the case of
W. T. Osborne against the Southern
Railway Company, where plaintiff was
suing for $10,000 damages for alleged
injuries received while he was riding
on a handcar near Holtsburg, after be
ing out all night brought in a verdict
of $2,000 for Osborne. The Railway at
torney appealed to the Supreme court.
Before adjourning the term of the
court Saturday afternoon, Judge Moore
signed an order in the case of Mrs.
Laura Bain of High Point against her
former husband, J. Frank Bain, grant
ing the writ of dabeas corpus for three
children which were in the possession
of Mr. Bain.
The decision direct? that Mrs. Bain
be given the custody of the three chil
dren now at the home of Mrs. ThomaB
Carrick, their aunt. It further pro
vides that J. Frank Bain shall be per
mitted to see all thd children at the
home of their aunt once every week be
tween the hours of 10 a. m.Jand 4 p. m.,
but that he should not under any cir
cumstances visit them at the home of
their mother, unless by her consent. The
decree further provided that Mrs. Bain
should give a bond in the sum of $1,000
u a guarantee that the children will
not be carried out of the State and be
yond the jurisdiction of the court
At a meeting of the Board of Educa
tion for Guilford county this morning,
the resignation of its chairman, Prof.
J. Allen Holt was tendered to take ef
fect today. In his letter of resigna
tion, after expressing his reluctance at
resigning, rrot. Holt stated that he
had been a member of the board for
twenty years. That when he became a
member in 1886, the sum of $15.(M) was
the amount of money, or collected for
the county publio school fund, while
the amount now expended for the coun
ty public school fund each year was
$50,000, and that since the era of dem
ocratic control of the State by the in
coming of Ay cock as governor, there
had been erected in the county forty
five new, commodious and handsome
school houses in the rural districts,
several graded schools established, and
many special tax districts voted by
popular vote.'
- Mr. 0. L. Sapp, a prominent lawyer
and excellent citizen of AiHeboro, who
has purchased a residence in Greensbo
ro and will remove his family here and
will begin the practice of law in this
city, writes that the statement made
in this correspondence that he had
formed a partnership for the practice
with Judge Adams is a mistake, and
savB: "Judge Adams and myself have
never discussed such a matter, and the
statement will be as much of a surprise
to him as it was to me."
The information on which the news
item was based came from one of the
moat prominent, members of the
Greensboro bar, and was thought to be
authentic." "
The Greensboro post office receipts
for October 1906 show a gain of $741.90
over October 1905. This is an increase
of over 13 per cent.
