Lowery, a highly respected colored in in later of the gospel, in a letter to the Record aboiu the colored State Fair, relates th's significant incident: "There is a little incident that took place under the tent on Assembly street on Tuesday night, which i think is worthy of mention. Neai the close of the meeting the R?v. Covington, a presiding elder of the A. M. hh church, and who lives in Columbia, walked up to the stand and whispered to Rev. Carrol that ho was just from tins bulletin board in front of Tho State office and the dispatchc.# all fluid that tho whol * country had gone Democratic. Rev. Carroll hollowed to the people. "Let nobody leave until we close; I wain to tell you how the election has gone, for the Democrats have given Mr. Tuft the devil to-day." This announ cement had a wonderful eflect upon the audience, and everybody sat down to await tho announcement. When they had finished ait Cho'r business, Rev. Carroll called on Rev. Covington to make the announcement.. Rev Covington .sal J "Friends, 1 am just from the bulletin board and the dispatches say that New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Ohio all have gone Democratic." Rev. Carroll" respond ed: "I am glad of it." Rev. 10. D. White cried out: "Thank Cod." Another brother shouted at the top of his voice: "That will bring bread and meat, down." At this latter expression the whole audience of negroes seemed to have been thrilled through and through with yoy." * ? ? ? ? WHAT CAUSED DEl-'IOAT. ? ??.?? Democratic Chairman Lloyd Issues a Statemont. On the night of the election Jaa T. Lloyd, chairman of the Democratic nalioual Congresslanal committee, fanned the following statement: "Present, indications are that Congress will he Democratic about .'55 majority. Thus far tho returns indicate that our pre-election estima'.es wore about correct. "Tli causes which have led to the I results today are woll known. It. is u furious rebuke to the Republican party tor ils tailun to reduce the tariff, as the people believed the party bad promised.

Trio number of Democrats elected to Congress, according to tlie latest returns, which are of an unofficial character, Is 2 2 0. The Republican representation will be 163 or 164, or 7 seats less than the Democrats now have iu the Sixty 11 rst congress. The eleventh Pennsylvania district, which is represented in the present congress by a Republican, Is in doubt. The Twelfth Pennsylvania district, also normally Republican, is likewise doubtful. The earlier returns Indicated the election of Robert B. Lee and lie is carried in the table as representative of this district. Later rourns, however, give his Republican opponent, Robt. D. itn.'itnn mi excellent fighting chance. and the official count will ho necessary to determine the result. Absolute confidence is not felt In tho returns for some of the Wisconsin districts, and it is not impossible that the official figures will change the totals of the two parties. Tho Fifth Wisconsin district is claimed by Victor ii. Merger. Socialist. Henry F.

A woman's voice at the other end of the wire said: "This is the Outlook Olhce. Will you please tell us how the election Is going?" "Pons has carried Massachusetts," I was the reply. "Connecticut and New Jersey also have gone Democratic. Harmon has been elected in I Ohio and Dix has carried New York by about 50,000 plurality."

IIj a Divided Court, Decision That May Affect Other Iui|k>rtant Cohos, <Joe? to ItaJIrouda. Upholding the sweeping advances in rates on Southeastern traffic on many classes and coinmoditlee, uh jusitfled by the condition of the railroada and the needed improved facilities. the interstate commerce commission at Washington Saturday, in n divided decision dismissed cases instituted by th? railroad commission of Alabama and Georgia and the A. P. Morgan Grain company and others. Th? decision may have an important bearing on other pending onsen the Southwestern shippers' case, which was heard by the commission and taken under advisement and the wholesale increases in rates by the rai!r< ads generally, now suspended by the commission pending investigation. Tlie decision Involves the Atlantic Coast Lino, the Louisville A Nashville and other roads as defendants. The advances involved were made on August 1, 1908. and the majority! opinion written by Commissioner Cockerill hold that they were not found to be unjust, unreasonable nor unduly discriminatory. The decision covered the advances generally to Georgia, Alabama, Florida and the Carolinas from Ohio and Missis sippi river crossings- The majority opinion holds '.hat both the adjustment of rates between Birmingham and Atlanta and the .advances made August 1, 100 8. were based on increased taxation and on the prices of material and labor. "The condition of most of the railroads in this section of the country," says the majority opinion, "is not yet up to the highest standard and in order that their facilities may be improved and extended to the ultimate lasting advantage of tho people of the South, it is necessary that the carriers be permitted to charge rates that are fully compensatory for tho services they perform so long as such rates have not been shown to be unjust, unreasonable, or excessive with respect to the public. We are unable to hold that an advance is unreasonable because some part of the benefit therefrom will accrue to a carrier that during the period of the last ten years has regularly paid interest on its total bonded debt and in addition thereto has recently paid dividends upon its stock." it was alleged that these increases were only a part of a general advance made or to be made In tlu freight rates throughout the South The decision. however. Is confined to the specific matters now in Isjne. the commission says, and Is uof to ir construed as extending o yonr. 'hem or as indicating in any iegret approval of other further advances In rates. The advance** were In meats, flour, grain, packing house products, etc.. mostly time freight that must be moved promptly, the wheat and corn milled in transit without extra charge and the loss and damage claims higher than the average on all commodities. | Dissenting opinions were filed by Commissioners banc and Clements.
