Rise In Cotton Justified
Continued from 1st page.
Now in regard to that, Messrs
Brown and Hay no simply bought
cotton from the bears in the cotton
market and required them to
deliver the cotton, and, of eourso,
the juice went up.
"As a rule the mummers of
O
the cotton mills all over tho county
arc hears and sympathize with
the bear operators. Very natnr~
ally, their interest is to lower the
price of the raw material, and
they heeded the representations
made by the hear operators, ex*
airiierated the last cron of cotton
unci failed to provido themselves
with 1 ho raw material to keep
their mills going. That is nil
there is m that."
ltUan you say anything with
reference to the profits in mano<
factoring cotton cloth from the
raw cotton?"
Well, only in a very general
way. A friend of mine who is
largely interested in the inunufuo
tore of cotton in the South, gavo
nic some statistics at one timo of
fhe pro tils from say a pound of
raw cotton converted into the finished
product, and I am told that
in many instances that profit has
been anywhere from 10 per cent
to 100 percent, which, of course,
is very gratifying to mo, for 1
didn't want to see the cotton mills
of the North, or, the South,
either, crippled in any way. lint
they have not paid a fair price for
cotton in tin,- last ten years, and if
the law of supply and demand is
to cut any figure now raw cotton
ought to 1)0 worth 15 cents a
pound.
"And if, as 1 understand, the
mills state they cannot mnnufnetuic
cotton at the present price
and make any money out of it,
the simple remedy for that is to
buy the cotton at the ruling pt ice
and put up 1 ho price of the manufactured
goods, for I think wo
may safely expect that we will in
n very few months find a famine
of cotton manufactured goods in
this country.''
"What is the visible supply of
raw cotton on the market, and
about how long would it last?
"My information, and I tnink
ll i-> pretty accurate, is that tho
visible supply of cotton to-day is
about 580,000 bales, which would
be about three weeks' supply for
the cotton mills. That is my information."
"And low long before tho new
crop will begin to come into the
market?"
' Well they are picking cotton
now in the extreme South, but, as
a rule, cotton ought to bo rushed
in in October or November, and
then, of course, the mills can say
what cotton they want. And I
think I ought to be correct that
we are now having tho greatest
cotton famine in this country
since the civil war. 1 want to
ropcat that cotton should bo sell
ing to day for 15 cents a pound,
if the rule of supply anil demand
is to cut any figure. V
"What is your information as
to the number < f bales of cotton
in the last crop?"
"Well, 1 understand tho bears
sent circulars all over this country
and ICuropu representing that tho
crop would be 11,500,000 bales,
or thereabouts, whereas, if 1 am
correctly informed, it was only
about 10,250,000 bales, and if
tho cotton factories were hotter
I
informed they would have laid in
ii supply to keep their factories in
operation."
"In other words, Messrs Brown
and II ay lie had hotter information
11s to the actual crop tliun the manufacturers
of cotton?"
"1' nqucslionably."
"And they took advantage of
this?"
"They simply tool^ advantage
/
r *
of it and acted upon it, and they
required the bears to (leliver th?
cotton that they bought, and tha
is all there is in it."
4'Secretary Wilson takes an
alarmist view of the foreign com
petition in the growing of cotton,
referring to the possible increase
of the cotton area in Egypt after
the completion of the Nile dan.."
' The Ger.uaiT, the English, the
French and tho Russian Governments
have for years* been trying
to tind a locality suitable for the
production of cotMftin, and so fat
they do not seem to have made
much progress. Ten or twelve
jyears ago?perhaps longer Ibar
j that?tho Russian Government
employed a very intelligent young!
j cotton planter in my State, and
I sent him into Central Asia, will
a view to developing tho cotter
growing in that country, hut m\
information is that it was a failure,
and 1 am inclined to think thai
Mr. John C. Calhoun was** right
when he said that cotton, to hi
successfully grown in any country,
inn t have frost."
"In view of tho increasing
world demand for cotton, do yoi
i think that,we in this country have
11113' cause to fear foreign coinpe
tition?"
"Not tho slightest. On th<
contrary. I think wo. will ??..
?' i - - * " v " 1,1 fr?" v"
increasing tho crop. T he demand
is increasing every year. Flic
enormous increase of cotton factories
in tho South is absorbing n
great deal of tho crop made ir
that section, and it's going t<
continue, for these cotton mills,
wherever properly managed, have
made enormous profits. That is
one of tho reasons why it was sc
important for tho cotton planter
of tho South to havo what the)
call an open door in Chirm, and
this is going to bo one of the
principal markets for manufactured
cotton goods in the South.
"And J want to say in thai
connection that this country, par.
ticularly the Southern part of it
isgreaily indebted to Mr Secretary
Hay, of the State department, foi
his able, linn and distmguishei
conduct in dealing with that ?pies
tion of tho open door, if ho is sus
taincd in that attitude 1 do noi
think that tho cotton inanufactur
crs in this country have anything
to fear.'*
"What is your opinion, Gener
al, as to the outlook of the pre
sent f iltfin i-mii''1
-- ? I"
"My mimager, on my planla
tion, writes 111(5 that the crop ii
about three weeks late, but at pre
sent is doing well. However, i
is unsafe to form any opinio!
about the cotton crop until aftei
September 20. The crucial per.
iod in a cotton crop is from about
August 20 to September 20.
"Then, what do you make ou
of Secretary Wilson's state
ments?"
"Well, summarized br icily, ]
should say thoy amounted to ar
unwarranted, and, it seems tome,
rather wanton characterization o:
reputable business men, doiop
business in a legitimate and honor
able way, as common gamblers.
That, and a number of bogeys,
apparently the emanation of Sec|
retary Wilson's rather vast lack
j of information on what I10 was
talking about, seem to 1110 aboul
.
i all his pronunciamento comes to.
SKCKKTAKY WIl.SON's KKI'I.Y.
To n reportor for the Washing
ton Star Secretary Wilson gave
the following statement in repl)
to Senator Butler's criticisms:
"I have road ox-Senator Butler's
criticism of my intorvicw
regarding tbo corner in cotton and
its effects upon tho country generally
and the cotton growing and
manufacturing industries 1 m tirii.
? - I
lurly.
"I hop? tho 'business men' of
whom ho spooks will hoc to it that
those prices continuo until tho cot
ton grower sells the coming crop.
If that should bo done, I will make
a trip to South < 'arolimi, ami (Jen.
llutler, if he shoul I he theic, t?.ac
oil my hat to liiiti and say to him
that 1 regard him as a great r ublie
benefactor .vho has been able
, to see further ahead into the Department
of Agriculture.
4'But if. o.i the other hand, il
, should occur that the price of cot
ton is dropped, when the farmot
, gets ready to market his new
, crop down to 8 cents, or 7, in.
stead of 15 or 12, then, of e > u se,
, 1 shall sti'l adhere to my opiniot
. that tno manipulation of the pre,
sent cotton corner by the gamhlct!
, of whom 1 spoUc is doing infinite
, mischief.".
! The Bonds Cannot Be Cancelled
I
Citadel Beneficiaries Cannot Avoi<
, Their Obligation to Teach in
I the Public Schools.
The State, 2<>th inst.
In 1S90 the legislature passed i
law which was intended to keoj
J young men from getting their ed
1 ligation at the Citadel at the ex!
penso of the State and then rofus
ing t!> repay the State for its generosity.
This law requires that
' each Citadel graduate shall teach
1 two years in the free schools ? a
I had been the law for a generaliui
' ?and that to guarantee the fulfill
ment of this contract a bond o
i $2,000 is to t>e given.
i And yet it appears that afte
? being educated, boarded and ever
clothed at the expense of the Stat
> some parties try to get out of tin
? contract by waiting until tw<
> years have elapsed and then
1 declaring that they tried to get a
' school and couldn't.
I This is the only school in tin
) State, male or female, which give
- everything to the beneficiary
scholar, even clothing, and the on
t ly return asked is that that beneti
ciary will teach two years in the
, free public schools.
The State superintendent o
r education has had occasion to asl
1 the attorney general's if
- Citadel graduate is exempted fror
- performing his obligations if hi
t term of teaching ho deferred fo
- a period of two years- aftor hi
l graduation. Id r. 1'ownsend, tin
assistant attorney general, ha
- handed in an opinion to the ell'ec
- stated above.
The law says very distinetl,
. that every beneficiary cadet upoi
s reporting for duty shall execute:
- bond for the faithful pcrformanct
t of his duty. That hois to teacl
i two years if he graduates, and i
r ho is honorably discharged befon
. the end of his four years ho inns
t teach a period of time proportion
ed upon the longtli of his stay n
t the academy. Unless the cade
- pays his obligation with two year
of service as teucher in the free
I public schools of the State, he
i shall be doomed guilty of violat
( iug a contract and may be sued ii
f the courts of the State. The lav
r is very explicit and tho only ex
. oention noted is thai the
I ""v h'
with permission of the boinl o
visitors, may teach in the schools
. and colleges of tho Statu as in tin
; free public -choc's '{'his is don?
5 so thut men of talent will not lu
