Lancaster in the Mule Market.
Lancaster is the best mule
market in the State. The com-.
petition of the four large sale
stables here, each of which buys
directly from the West in from
one to four car load lots at a time,
makes mules cheaper hero than
elsewhere in the State. The fact
is, dealers in other counties find
stock cheaper here than in Atlanta
and do their buying here. Only
yesterday Mr. Til (iregory, of
Che raw, was here unci purchased
22 head from the Lancaster Mercontile
Go's stables. The (iregory-Khea
Mule Company of Columbia
bought IS head from
them the same day. Last week
Crawford & Elliott sold is head
tn a dealer from Charleston. Al- |
most every day parties are here
from some of the adjoining c unties,
Chesterfield, Kershaw, Chester,
or Union county, N C, buying
mules. They claim to save
anywhere from $25 to $50 per
pair by coining to this market and
that is why business is so livelr
at Lancaster's four bi<? .-ale stable*.
The farmers all through thu sec,
lion of the State have learned
I i
where t? route for the best mules
at the most reasonable prices.
From the indications the -.ale*
here for the tirst three months of i
this year will amount to 1,000 or
1,200 head.

Senators express themselves as
hopeful over the prospects of se- U
curing legislation during the pres
cnt session of Congress, looking
to the refunding of money paid
into the Treasury* of the United 11
Stales soon after the civil war, as
the result of the sale of cotton
captured by the Federal forces. I)
There was originally about $30,- C
000,000 of tins money, out a portion
of it was paid to the < wners ^
of the cotton soon after the war.
VI
The remainder was left in he
Treasury and has remained there
*
over since. +
V
Senator Money, who i* giving +
especial attention loi king to the *
re-opening of the subject, says *
that the sum left amounts to about +
$11,000,000. A hili intioduced *
\ T +
by S nator Davis gives one year
additional time for proof of such '
cLim* before the ('ourt of Olaims. \
It has been favorably reported by 1
the Senate committee on claims i
and Senator Money thinks the \
outlook veiy good for favorable |
action. Most of the claims are 1
held in the Southern States.
