Ulm** V ???,.?. It For lilt i omiiilllcc
and li\Mirgnii> M?> A No Agree
Washington. Aug. 14.--An ametd
ment designed to make it clear Mat
commercial paper baaed on warehouse
receipts for staple commodities would
be accepted for rediscount by fed?
eral reserve banks proposed In the
administration currency bill practi?
cally was agreed on today in the house
Psmocrsth' caucus. The amendment
to whl?h chairman Glass said Ihe
banking snd curroncy committee
would not object wan offered by Ma?
jority Leader I'nderwood. Demo?
cratic leaders expressed the belief that
this would sat'sfy the demands among
the currency insurgents.
The rediscount provision, as drawn
provides that the federal reserve
board may define what paper shall be
admitted to rediscount, but specifies
that euch definition shall not include
notes or bills drawn for the purpose
of trading or carrying "stocks, bonds,
or other securities."
Representative Underwood pointed
esjf that there was some spprehen
?ion In which he did not share thai
the words "other securities" might bo
on ws rehouse receipts for carrying
farme ?* crop. Mr. Glass said this
wag rot the case, but that the com?
mute* regarded the words as nones
ssntisl snd wss willing to let 'them
be stricken out.
The speakers todsy included Repre?
sentatives Byrnes, Phelan of Massa?
chusetts, Korbley of Indiana and
cithers.
Representatives Hagsdale of South
Carolina and Henry, while approving
the amendment, declared it did not
felly meet their contention.
Representative Wingo of Arkansas
who has been one or the insurgents,"
expressed the view that he and the
administration forces could "get to?
gether on common ground."

Hin Contention.
Washington, Aug. 14.?Representa?
tive Brynea addressed the caucus to?
day In opposition to the currency bill
In Its present form. He stated that he
believed that currency legislation
should be snsctsd st this session, but
that the bill In Its present form, in?
stead of helping conditions in the
South would be actually injurious to
Southern banks. He called attention
to the fact that the provision which
prevents the redlscountlng of paper
having s maturity of more than 60
days would make tt impossible for the
Southern banks to rediscount the.r
psper with federal reserve banks.
Notes In the sgricultursl section of the
South have a maturity of seven or
eight months. That In June or July,
when the farmers are asking aid.
tlonsl loans the local banks could not
supply the demand because they
would have no paper which could be
rsdlscounted with the federal reserve
banks The chairman and other mem?
bers of the committee. In response to
a question by Mr. Brynes. stated that
a note seaured by a warehouse re?
ceipt for cotton could not be redls
counted If the farmer Intended to hold
the cotton for a raise In price because,
under the construction of the commit?
tee, that would be a speculative, and
not a commercial purpose.
Because of this statement, he urged
that the caucus should amend the sec?
tion V'V providing that notea secured
by agricultural producta should be
eligible for discount, so that federal
reserve board might not Interpret the
bill as did tb?- members of the com?
mittee Kg ttated that the rediscount
section of the hill offers re!ie| to the
cotton exporter, to the manufac turer
and to the merchant but discriminated
agalntt the farmer because it made
It Imposatble for the local bank to r? -
dlsrount the notes of the farmer.
He alto urged the au< gg to amend
the bill by prohibiting a director In a
nstlo'al bunk from being a direc tor
In sny nattona' oank serving the
some locality This Is in line with the
roeommendatlonn made by the Pujo
< o.*imlt?ee gl which Mr Itrvm s WSS
a member Mr. Brynes believes that
the bill In Its present f..rrn Is so cb-.i r -
ly a discrimination agalnel t? ? agri
rulturalists of the country, thai the
caucus Is certain to amend it.

Have Died There.
?'hinter, \Ufr. 15.? After several
in and nights of hard work. State
Detective i M. Cower believes that
he has almost 1 bared the mystery
Surrounding the death of George M
Peurson. whose body was found lying
m\ id bfldl the track of the Sea-I
board Air Line railway close to the
W\lie totton mills early last Sunday
morning.
I POM the time the body was found
for, play was suspected and it was
thought that he had been killed else
where and placed beside the tra?'k.
An immediate investigation was in?
stituted which led to the house oc?
cupied by Mrs. M. J. Huggins and
daughter, who were ordered away
from the villuge Monday.
A heavy piece of iron was found
on the floor, which is used by til*
railroads to grip bolts that connect
heavy rails, and is known as a fish?
plate, weighing about 15 or 20 pounds.
A great deal of blood was found on
it. and it is bellevec' to b'i the In?
' strr.ment that battered our Pearson's
brains. *
The room in which it Is beliewd
that he was killed had blood spat
i
tered all over the wall and th?? floor
w.is literally covered with gore. Rest?
ing over on the sill of the window
was a piece of scalp with hi ir and
blood on it. supposed to have been
knocke?! over there by the force of
the blow from the fishplate. A strong
. magnifying glass was used on the
Mood, which proved that it was the
blood of a human being.
Last night while working on the?
se at the \V vile mill Detective Pow?
er was shot at with a pistol and the
bullet missed him only a fraction of
an inch, digging a hole in his coat and
grazing his trousers. It was a nar?
row escape. An investigation was
made in an effort to apprehend the
person that did the shooting, but this
was unsuccessful.
Coroner J. Henry Gladden an?
nounced this evening that he expect?
ed to Issue warants for several ar?
rests probably tomorrow morning. Ib?
is awaiting the developments of to?
night.
Suffered Eczema Fifty Years?Now
Well.
Seems a long time to endure the
awful burning. itching. smaning,
skin-disease known as "tetter"?an?
other name for eczema. Seems good
to realize, also, that Dr. Hobson's
Eesema Ointment has proven a per?
fect cure.
Mrs. D. L. Kenney writes?"I can?
not sufficiently express my thanks to
you for your Dr. Hobson* 1 Eezemu

Presen! Outlook in Texan and Okla?
homa is Par Less than 6,000,000
Bales.
Wall St root Journal. " " ?
"A great many trailers have boon
prompted to veil the market on what
is generally regarded as a very ex?
cellent outlook in the Eastern States
of the bei;," said a prominent South?
ern cotton man. "They have done tins
despite continued reports of lerlous
deterioration in the Southwest, where
the season has been a record one for
dry and hoi weather. A short time
ago cotton people were talking of s
combined yield of 7*500,000 bales for
Texas and Oklahoma. Now, whereas
it is doubtful to what extent the crop
In those two states has been dam?
aged, it does not seem possible that
they can raise as much cotton :?s last
year, when the total production was
a little short of 6,000,000 bales.
"This is tile forty-third day Of ex?
cessive heat, and practically no rain.
Telegrams are re< eived every day stat?
ing the crop is going backward rapid?
Jy. The movement, it is said, will be
a heavy one early, and If this is true
there is all the more reason to appre?
hend a sei ions curtailment of the
yield, Bolls, which open early, are
likely to he small, with short staple,
i understand thai the premium on,
higher grade cotton is already being
raised in the Southern markets, which
is a good indication that the cotton
is not running as high as expected."
Sentiment has remained persistently
bearish. Some brokers ur.e now won
dering it the occurren? e of really good ,
rains in the Southwest \N 111 cause a
initiier decline <?!' ;ni\ extent owing to
a strong technical position*
"I think al! the good pews has beep
discounted i-u the lime at least. The]
market la narrow and everybody that*
was going to sell cotton has already
done so in anticipation of rain. They
WiM start to COVor as soon as the good
rains ionic and that will hold the mar?
ket steady, temporarily at least," said
this same cotton man.

"My hack ached and if 1 made a quick

I had to lift myself up. The kidney
secretions were unnatural and filled
with sediment. Doan'i Kidney Pills,
procured at China's Drug store, gave
mo relief and after taking them I en?
joyed good health. I gladly confirm
