The result bus been the opening of all the cotton. The crop is certainly larger than the farmers w ill admit. The Auditor says there were about 1,200 new applicants for pensions this year, of which something like 300 passed But quite a number were dropped from the roll, owing mainly to deaths. This is particularly the case as to willows. Superintendent John H. Smith of the penitentiary says his son, Dr. Kirliy Smith wll return from New York in about six weeks. Ho says there s nothing io the statement that Gov. liiHiell will make requisition for Kirby Smith, as he could not do so until the latter had been indicted. Clerk Wimliish of the penitentiary, did not relish the publication of his queer letter to Rev. Dr. T. W. liiibb, in which the latter was gently dismissed as peni tentiary chaplain. But the latter, the treasury officials plainly told him, was attached to and filed witli Dabh's voucher and hence was a public document. The f.ict is the treasury did not relish paying out the $600 to Jiabb for preaching ar.y more than he did the $i;'3 for whiskey, which was covered by the preceding voucher. The officers of the colored Stale fair, which begins here next Tuesday, say that the exhibits will be very creditable. The only colored military company in the Staie, that of Capt. G. 8. L. A. Taylor of Charlotte, will be In camp at the grounds with its full strength, 43. Durham people have a new treatment for trumps who refuse, to work out costs. Yesterday one wnv chained to a wacou by an ankle, his hands were tied behind him and he thus made the tour of the town on foot. State Chemist W. A. Withers returned today from Washington, where he at tended the National convention of chem ists. He says the chief question discussed was that of pure food and food adultera tion and that the question of good laws on this most important question will he more widely discussed this coming win ter than ever before, all over the coun- tay. The fact that reports are in hand from no less than 204 gold mines in this State shows a very remarkable and rapid de velopment along that line, when the Status of gold mining ten mouths ago is taken into account. Reports to the bureau of labor statis tic from 113 of the 185 cotton mills in this State which spin anil weave show a daily consumption of 1,137 bales, or 335, 688 a year. The lailway commission certainly gives to Gov. Russell's attorneys the cold shoulder. In fact it does not recognize them at ail. The attorney general, whom it does recognize, is the quietest of all the State officers. The petition for a change of route of the Raleigh (Jhutou railway at Gaston bring! up again before the railway com mission that matter. The conditions were made such that last winter the road dropped the project. A veteran Republican remarked today, "The Rutgell ruts are deserting tiie Ship." By this be referred to the men who a year ago posed as friends of Rus sell and who now repudiate him. No time should bo lost iu uiacadamiz- jing the streets hero. It is strange hut true that some of llio worst arc those Around the Capital tquare. one being eyivtl to any in a country town for mud And irreguluilty. As yl work has not begun on the hand omo quarters for tiie Capital club. The budding which occupied the situ hua been removed. In nearly ell the counties in the State the partridge shooting season begins next Maud ay. BiriUwru very abundant and well grows and ther will be more sportsmen from other States than aver before. The returns on the wool industry In this State, as made to the labor bureau, show 8,080 spindles io operation, Solicitor Pou of Johnston was here yesterday. He says that It an election were to be held now the Democrats would carry that county by the largest major!. ty in iU history The fact is that many the Republicans recognize that the Democrats will sweep the State at the eleoiioa next falL Solioitor Pbu was attacked to the lust issue of Senator Butler's pnper for not sending' te the grand jury of Wake ioounty bills against the railways and gainst Dr. Kirhy Smith, lie says the writer of the article fat either aa Igno ramus or does biiu an Intentional Injus tice. It is the custom for clerks ol court to keep presentment! sealed until they OA9TOHIA. are ordered by him for the purpose of issuing subpoenas for the witness. At the last term of court the presentments were not made until the grand jury came into court to be discharged. Solicitor Pou says he is under no obligations to any railways, and never appeared for one in his life, but never attempted to make political capital by abusing them unfair ly. He says he would think himself contemptible if while trying to build up waning political fortunes by abuse of railways he was at the same time riding free on their roads. He adds that it is just possible Senator Butler, editor of the Caucasian, will have to give up his passes. He concludes by saying: "The press should not try cases in advance ot the courts." The work of arranging Ilia documents in the Auditor's office shows their con fusion; due to the lite which destroyed the old capital and to the removal in April 1865. The need ot a special tire proof building for the Btorage of docu ment and records is most apparent. The capital building is small and too cramp ed for such uses. THE COTTON SITUATION. Market Nllll Olsvunrnatngr Io Ohiicih ol' Ihe Product, Trnde lemitiHl l.ltfhl. Porelicn NiockH Nmnll. In their Weekly market lettet review, Macy and Pendleton, Bankers and Bro kers, New York Oily, have the follow ing on tiie Cotton situation. . "The stock of cloths at Kill River and Providence is now 1,486,000 pieces against 2,116,000 pieces a year ago. The price drags at 2 cents per yard, or around the lowest ever known, but a pre mium is paid for forward deliveries. The importations of cotton goods since .Jan uary lirst still aggregate a value nearly twenty per cjjnt. in excess of that of the imported iroodi during same period in 1896, and the e.ioriunus importing opera tions in wool and woolen goods in antici pation of the new tarilt doubtless keeps the shelves of merchants clogged with low priced wool fabrics to the detriment of the cotton trade. The port receipts from September first to date are about 2,080,000 bales ngainst about 2,260,000 bales in corresponding time lust year: The exports from September lirst to date arc about l,lio,000 bales ngaiust about 1,200,000 hales same lime last year. New York stock u low and so is that of Liv erpool and entirely out of line with the bear sentiment prevailing. From a "Journal of Commerce report of foreign conditions, it appears that Great Britain exported cotton goods in 180 J represent ing 3,412,000 hales of raw cotton or about 200,000 bales more than all spinners in the United States consumed, which is another way of saying that if American soinncrs can compete with British spin ners for their present available foreign business, there is u chance to double American production, because we can certainly take all their trade if advanta ges of having cotton at tho dours of our mills and wuter power to drive spindles with, are of any account. Our market and perhaps others became rather oversold as a necessary conse quence better foreigu cables have assist ed somewhat ill stopping the otherwise discouraging downward movement. There is still talk about a ten million bale crop and some enthusi istic heirs, botli South and North, are talking five cent cotton, basing it on the theory that us the season advances receipts will run to extraordinary proportions nnd drag the market downward in Ihe absence of any considerable speculative or spinning demand. It is now conceded that Kurc pean spinners arc working under extra ordinarily difficult circumstances, the trado falling below expectations in almost every particular. The stock over there remains very low and extremely so as compared with some previous years when cotton was selling much higher. The re ceipts on the whole arc rather more free for the season than expected by the bulls and yet may not be necessarily taken as indicating s crop of over nine millio i hales. The discouraging feature appears t ) be lock of speculation or demand end is not easily overcome or changed. Many commission houses are now advising buying on a scale, believing that if there 14 any further decline, courage and a little patience will result In a profit. A frost in the cotton belt would help the tone of the market." THE IHABCSTS. Yesterday's market quotations furnish ed by W. A. Porterflcld & Co. Commission Brokers. New York, October 80. STOCKS.

II is Son Nominated to lilt 111 o Place. George Could not Stand (he Strain. A Picturesque Fig ure. A Poor Man and an Enthusiast. New Yohk, October 2D Tammany men profess to believe that Mr. Georgc"s death will lead a large number of Ids Democratic supporters to vole for Van Wyck and will insure ihe election of that nominee. On the other hand, Mr. George had often stated on the hustings that if he could not win lie would desire the election of Seth Low. as thev both rep resented the principle of opposition to bossism, Low's ' supporters sav Unit on this account their candidate will receive large accessions from the George ranks and will win. 1 he executive committee met in the afternoon and substituted the name of Henry George, Jr , for that of his father on the ticket. Newspaper men who have followed Mr. George's campaign have felt that In was undergoing a strain which was sure ly and rapidly breaking him down, At times lie has been incoherent. His Mimic temperament underwent a complete change. His spi eclies, delivered by tin half dozen each day, were often rain hling. though their trend ever faithful to the toi'ers, whose devoted champion lie has been all Ids life. Henry George was the most pictures que figure in the New York campaign. His nomination for Hist Mayor of the Greater New York by Ihe Dcnioeraiic Alliance meant that thousands of work ingmen will vole for no machine nomi nee hut would have joyfully allu red under Ins banner. He was a poor man, a clean man, a simple man, a philosopher, a leader who aroused the wildest enthusiasm, though he always remaintd outwardly at least, as calm anil methodical as a h ( liner on niatiien.atlc , I.HtCMl Sl'H, lie, UN. In consequence of the disastrous news of the Arctic v haling licet, whalebone has risen to $4 a pound in this market.

The news has caused considerable depression among the friends of Andree. Great excitement prevailed 'at Athens on Monday. Several hundred volunteers invaded shops of that city ami seized clothing and food. The shopkeepers re- istrd, some of them using arms in so doing. This caused a panic: all the simp ill town were hurriedly dosed, and final ly, the rioters were dispersed by strong patrols of troops. ho succeeded in ar restlne the ringleaders. President McKinley will formally lay General Woodford's cablegram giving a synopsis of Spain's reply before a meet ing of the Cabinet, but it is not expected that any action will lie taken about it until tho President returns from Ohio at the end of this week, if. indeed, anything Is done then. tot fse- A li n ri,iont t7 A Proud flan you will be the day Hint you first strut forth in a suit of clothes or overcoat, on which we have laid the stamp of correct and fashionable cut.
