Announcements of the ball received in Columbia yesterday are in part as follows: "One of the objects of the ball is to popularize the use of cotton fabrics and so increase the demand for the cotton. The statisticians who have become interested in th? affair fitfui" out that if the women of America arei induced to wear cotton drosses whenever they can be worn, without discomfort the consumption of cotton in the United States will be increased i?y at leas' a million bales a year. "Cotton costumes will be generally worn by the ladies who attend, but cotton dominoes will be provided the ball for those who are unprovided with cotton dresses. Several thousand cotton bolls have been ordered a* Louttonieres for the men, and every one will be expected to wear cotton ? gloves. One concern manufacturing * cotton dress goods of exceptional ' l>eauty has offered to present everv i lady attending the hall with enough i' material for a complete costume, and another is anxious to give all the men cotton cloth out of which they can F have dress suits made.

But the people, whose j vishes I have always sought to obey | ^ md whose welfare I have always en-! ^ leavored to care for and promote. L lave the decision with them as to i vhether it should become a law. I im so apprehensive of the dire disas- J er which may come to the credit o' . he State by incurring such a fearful : imount of indebtedness for such ;i j imall State as South Carolina, an i vhich perhaps and in all propability < n my view of it, will not give any elu f to the poor farmers of oin xtuto nor sufliciently protect the large ilnnling interests of many of our en; ens. and so fearful of such wo< onsequences as may arise to our peo- i ?le at large, that 1 hesitate to assume my responsibility for this measure ;>ut I become hesitant and doubtful >efore the situation which my disap it oval of this act may produce, a I < ,vhich so many of our represental i\> j md our farmers think would meet th- j mergency which they now face, and j hat it is for their benefit and \\< , fare. , "The constitution provides thai i i bill or joint resolution shall not Ik j eturned by the governor within tin , lays after it shall have been preset ] d to him, Sundays excepted, it she , tave the same force and etTect as if ie had signed it, unless the genet j assembly, by adjournment, prevent ii s ] return, in which case it shall ha\ j <uch force and effect unless return'd | within two days after the next meet ng.' In all probability one of th< i reasons of this constitutional provi - ] ion is to meet just such a situation ax , fiow presents itself to me. ( Can Not Appprove Act. "I can not, entertaining the views hat I do with regard to this act, up- : prove it. 1 can not feel that I am lealing with my' people fairly in tlm sense of not giving them an oppoi tunity to pass upon this question themselves, I can not place my executive disapproval upon this measure. The responsibility, therefore, of is oecoming a law must rest with he general assembly which was con /ened in extra session to pass surh aws as in their good judgment rruy e necessan' and proper for the reief of the citizens of our State.

FEDERAL CAVALRY SENT TO ARKANSAS United States Troops Will Be Used in Maintaining Order in the Coal Strike District. Washington, Nov. 3.?Secretary Garrison today ordered four companies of the Fifth United States cavalry from Fort Sheridan, 111., to Fort Smith, Ark., for use in maintaining order in the Hartford Valley coal mining strike district. These troops will be commanded by Maj. Nathaniel F. McClure, who has had experience with cavalry troops in the Colorado mining fields. Secretary Garrison explained the order as follows: "We have reached the conclusion that it is impractible to enforce the law and tin- orders of the United States court in Arkansas by any other means. The court had appointed a receiver for the coal mines; the mines had been blown up and the men who had been arrested charged with the crime had been released from the custody of the United States marshal forcibly by their friends. The United States court had been unable to enforce its processes. Will Not Serve Processes. "The troops will not undertake to serve any processes; they will confine themselves to making it possible for the civil officers to perform their functions. They will prevent any obstruction in the course of justice. The state has nothing to do with the case." Major McClure was selected by Secretary Garrison to command the troops because of the manner in wnicn ne discharged his very delicate duties in connection with the protracted mine strike in Colorado. It was expected the troops would leave Chicago tonight and he at Fort Smith before tomorrow night. About 260 men will be in the command. Better a foggy present than a misty past.
