FOOLS PLAYING WITH FIRE.
Senator Tillman Warns Republicans of
Their Folly. -An Eloquent and
Powerful Appeal.
Washington, February 24.-The
Indianola, Miss., postoffice case oc
cupied the major portion of the time
of the Senate to day. Senator Till
man spoke for three hours, in con
tinuation of his remarks begun yes
terday on the race question, and was
followed by Senator Carmack, of
Tennessee.
Senator Tillman, in his speech,
said that in dealing with the Indian
ola postoffice the President and
Postmaster General transcended their
authority and resorted to methods
which were both tyrannical and un
constitutional. He wanted to know
if in.figuring up the purpose of their
new born zeal "this cold-blooded,
calculative, advisedly taken action"
was not prompted by a low motive.
He charged that 800,000 negroes are
coercing fifty millions of white peo
pie in the North to deal with seven
teen million White men in the South
in the intereAt of the eight million
ignorant negroe? in that section.
He referred to the cost in lives
and money.on account of the race
problem in this country, and, address
ing the Republicat side, called on
them to meet him "upon the same
plane of patriotism, of race pride
and of civilization, and not to fall in
to the pitiful cesspool of partisan
politics." He read extracts from the
letter of the President written some
time since covering his views with
respect to appointments of negroes
to office. He said, but the views
were superficial.
"How little and small and infinites
imal," he said, "is the knowledge be
hind such a view."
He added that the people of the
North have no more use for the
negro at close garrters than be had.
He cited instances of assaults by
negroes on white men, and declared
that the more the Northern people
find out about the negro the less use
they have for him. The ballot of the
p/agro, he maintained, wa4 a menace
to good government and the people
of the North are coming to realize
that the enfranchisement of him
bordered on a crime.
Reverting to the President's asser
tion that he was unwilling to shut
the doc.r of hope and opportunity in
the taco of a worthy and competent
colored man, Senator 'l'iliman said
that at. th tirit blIush there is not a
man alive wh'lo .nild tot hagree withI
thbat sent iment, but h~ iniqinr'd if it
occurred to anyo1 that' mji i pi'i'it
that door of ho1'e it muihti no: t'.
shut in the face of the white man.
Theli door of ho'pe in Suth Cirin , ,
he said, at one t ime had b- ena cloued
by bayone'ts to thai wvhita's for eigh. lt
years, wileI rapine, mn'dhr arnimis
go)venmtent ran riot, wVith an abom-'t,i
irnstion in the I.igh of maitl ; .*idhing
over the State.
HIe dechiredl that b. udid nitt hate
he negro, arid Ibhat aill ne.groes' ar'
not bad. Only ai smiall p,ercentae
tar' had, anid th''s., he' said, are lead
ig the rest ad be~.inag pit ted or. the
back by politicians.
Hie regardeid it. ~as his dIut y, lie
said, to his Statt to)5 st n fo)rwIird
opposed to anty manner of pol it ical
or social equalit.y ont thi part of the
negro with he whites. Continuing,
he referred to the adloption of the
fifteenth anmendment to thle Constitu
tion. "Whlen you remorselessly
stand by that," said1 he, "arid say it
is sacred, yotu force uis to( face the
alternative of a confli *t of races.''
The purpose of those who endorse
the President's door o'f hopo policy,
he declared, is that in Sotuth Claroli
na should become a State of mulat
toes, and in this event. he1 predlicted
there would lbe more blood shed than
was ever shed before.
"I beg you, for God's sake," he
said, facing the Republican side,
"riot to produce an aceute stage of
hatred, which will bring the two
races togethor with thie resolve, of
the whites to die i'i 'rder to' retain
their supiremacy."
Senator TLillman said his riewspat
per friends always took great pains
to quote evaerything he had aid that
was "hot," leaving out everything
that was rational, decent and sane in
their pursuit of senst;tions, and in
this respect a great wrong had been
done him. "A lie," he said, "never
had any particular truth," and he
would not attempt to make even a
start to run down those that have
been told on him.
Senator Tallman said he did not
want to see the African driven to the
wall, and he did not want to shut the
door of hope in his face, but he could
not consent to the dominance of that
people over the whites.
Senator Tillman then poked fun
at Senator Hanna and read the title
of the bill he recently introduced to
pension ex-slaves. "Oh, my God!"
said he, "did Senator Hanna mean
that, or is it a political dodge?" The
effect of the bill, was, he declared, to
giv,. opportunity to unscrupulous
negroes to bamboozle and deceive
their people by securing sobscrip.
tions ostensibly to further the inter.
eats of the bill. He concluded by
saying that "in proportion as you
arouse false hope in the minds of
these people you are only sowing the
wind which will flame up into a
whirlwind later on."
Senator Tillman spoke for three
hours. He was followed by Senator
Carmack, of Tennessee, who said the
action of the President in the In
dianola case was not in accordance
with reason, justice or the Constitu
tion.
He said that if the closing of the
Indianola postoflice is to be taken as
a measure of the strength of the
Executive and the power of the
Federal Government, then the (Jov
ernment at Washington deserves to
be despised for its weakness and im
becility. The postoffice Lelonged,
he said .to the United States, and he
inquired. if a handful of ruffians was
more powerful than the Government,
"with its militant. President at its
head ?"
Soon after the conclusion of Sena
tor Carmark's remarks the Senate
adjourned.
IT SHOCKED COLUMBIA.
A Deadly Dynamite Explosion at the Stew

[Special to News and Courier.]
Columbia, February 20.-William

the Stewart quarry, were instantly
killed this morning by the premature
explosioni of forty Pounds of dyna

9 o'clock this morning and, although
the quarry is ove~r t wo mniles from

FORTUNE IN COTTON.
New Napoleon Entered Market and Reaped
Millions.-A Great Fight Between
the Bulls and Bears.
(N. Y. Herald.)
In the cotton markets of the
United States for the last week there
has been aaged one of the greatest
campaigns in the history of the trade.
The centre of the conflict is located
in the pit of the New York cotteu
exchange and there the bittGre't
struggles have occurred mainly.
E,th day prices have moved up, to
the discomfort and route of the bears,
but they- have not lost heart and
they continue to struggle valiantly.
The clashing force consists on the
one side of New England manufac
turers and dealers, assisted by a
strong pool of New Orleans cotton
merchants. These represent the
bulls on the market. On the other
are numerour veteran merchants in
this city and Boston men whose opin
ions have been the dominating forces
in the cotton markets for many years
past.
The Napoleon of the cotton bulls
of the present campaign is a man,
comparatively new to the cotton
trade. He took up the leadership of
the struggle just at a time when the
recongnized leader of the bull forces
stepped aside and announced "That
the apogee of the cotton market had
been reached." Even his enemies,
the bears, admit. that he has a perfect.
command over the markets of the
day in this city and in New Orlea.
and Liverpool.
This Napoleon of cotton is Daniel
J. Sully. lie is a member of the
New York cotton exchange and
makes his headquarters in this city
at the oflice of S. M. Weld & Co.,'
through which firm practically his
transact ions are cleared. Since spot
cotton touched ten cents a pound,
and the prices for cotton for delivery
in March and May have bordered on
that figure, numerous reports have
been circulated telling of the profits
of the bulls. Some of these reports,
which are given credence in well-in.
formed circles, states that the New
England clique, with which Mr.
Sully is associated, has cleared ap
proximately $3,000,000. Mr. Sully
himself is credited with making more
than a half million dollars, in the
campaign, which, however, to his
own statements, has not ended.
It is estimated that on the upturn
in the market in which prices ad
vaniced from 8 cents to 10 cents a
pound, the Sully pool carried over
500,000 bades of cotton.
A cent a pond( in cot1 ton isn us'u al
ly reckoned as anl advane of $5 a
bale.
Thern has been an advance of $10
a bale in th pruicle since Mr. Sully
took up the leadership which was
dleposod from the shoulder of Tho
doro H. Price by his ownI desire.
This represents an advance of $5,
(000,000 ini the vatlue of thre cortton
held by the New England piool. Of
their holdiogs, however, a part has
been rsold anid bought, accord inrg to
the exigenlcies ofi the marrket.

DR. NESOM ON "STAGGERS."
A Fatal Malady Now Prevalent Among
Horses--Disease of the Nervous
System.
[The State.]
Dr. Nesom, of Clemson College,
the State veterinarium, is receiving so
many letters from various sections in
reference to staggers that be has
found it impossible to answer them
all. The following letter will be of
interest to many throughout the
State:
To the Editor of The State.
As it, is quite out of the question
to give personal answers to all of the
letters received from citizens (f
South Carolina and Georgia regard -
ing a horse disease commonly re- i
ferred to as staggers, I take this I
method of saying to those concerned t
that more and more cases appear I
every week, and just at a season
wvheni horses and mules are no muchl I
in demand for farm work it becomes H
a serious question. The losses in
South Carolina from this disease <
during the past year are estimated at i
about $10,000, and it is prevalent in i
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, V
Kansas I had diagnosed the disease o
as cerebro-spinal meningitis nearly
a year ago, but, many of the diseuses 1
did not seem typical of this disease.
I hove recently forwarded to the
bureau of animal industry at Wash
ington six of the brains taken from t
horses that. had died of this diseasO.
A partial report hes been receivol I
and the disease prove: to he corelro- u
spinal meningitis, or leucoencephal i
tis. t
This is a disiaso of the nervous t
sy'stntm, ftlectiug chiefly the brain
and its coverirng ieiibraies. Most
of the brains ttak-en out recently have
been conget0(1, seltn0 blood sOrnm
around the brain, and in either the
right or left half of the upper por. (
tion of the brain (cerebrum) there
has been found a large area of do
generation. This cannot be suen on
the surface, but if the brain be cut,
open what appears to be a large il
cer is found in the substanee of the
brain. This is the principal losion
and is responsible for most of the ill
symptoms.
'riT symptoms are thoe of nearly r
all the other forms of so-called e
"staggers,'' and death generally fol- y
lows in one or two days if not very i
Hoon after the disease is noticed.
The cause of the disease is not weli i
