T NO BIG BATTLE YET Review of European War News Up to A This Morning. I,ondon. Aug. 11.?1.20 a. m.?No Croat battle has yet been fought on land or sea In the war of seven Nations unless the German assaults upon the fortresses at Liege eventually assume the proportions of a battle in history. Both combatants claim victory. there, with the Belgians still holding the forts and the Germans occupving the city. The situation is unique. There is no contlrmation of the Daily Mail's report that the French have engaged the Germans and cut off their retreat, inflicting a loss of 8,000 men. The Belgians claim that they have taken 8,000 prisQt oners on Belgian soil, but military men regard all the estimates of the belligerents as great exaggerations. Apart from Liege the fighting of the first week, when resolved to the proper prospective eventually doubtless will be considered insignificant. One of the most important developments in the eyes of experts is the general testimony that the German infantry foundation is obsolete and ineffective against the weapons of today ^ and means an enormous slaughter if retained. France and Austria finally are officially at war, the ambassadors having left the respective capitals. The French ,,? (Xnlomatic rela Kuvci iniir-iii u, ..... tions with Austria on the grounds that ^ Austrian troops were reinforcing the Germans. Austria appears to have abandoned the advance on Servia for a time and apparently is co-operating with Germany in the supposed strategy of attempting to crush France before Russia can mobilize. Financial conditions in England are returning to normal. Although there is a great disorder in many trades the prices of foodstuffs have risen only slightly. THE CRISIS IN COTTON Some Facts of Importance Bearing on 0 the Situation. Cotton growers of the south and all interests related to them in a business way ore facing a crisis on account of Europe's inability to take our surplus cotton, of from 6.000.000 to 9,000,000 bales. If the European war had broken out in the spring, the acreage would probably have been much reduced automatically. If the surplus crop of 1914 can be taken care or otnerwme for a year or so, cotton growers can adjust themselves by diversifying crops so as to cut down the yield to probably one-half or two-thirds of the average production. But for the presv ent, they have a product on their hands L ^ worth from $300,000,000 to $400,000,1 000, to carry which they are in dire % need of help. A Various expedients have been suggested as a means of meeting the situation, Whatever is done must be done quick, but need not be done all at once. The ttrst problem is to take care of about 300.000 bales of cotton up to September 1, probably 500.000 bales during September and 1.500,000 bales during October. The handling ? of another 1,750,000, making 4,000,000 In all, by the end of November, would go far towards preventing prices from - slumping. The holding of 4,000,00 * bales of cotton at $56 a bale would require $220,000,000 capital. On this, the owner* or trustees could probably bor^ row $180,000,000. A second suggestion is to develop the consuming capacity of domestic mills, which are now capable of taking about Q 6.000.000 bales. By the special promotion of foreign markets under the suspension of the European supply of cotton goods, our mills might easily enlarge their cloth and yarn production for Latin-American as well as African and Asiatic wares. An expansion of 50 per cent in consumption would enable the home mills with over 31,000,000 spindles to take 9,000,000 bales. 1 That would in itself be a substantial " M 1oul 1 thp I i renei proviueu mej wuiu ?>?... goods. The domestic market could otherwise develop a large demand under ordinary conditions of business. There are no large stocks of cotton goods in this A country, and the European war is Jlkply to prevent Imports. The whole demand for cotton textiles would then fali o#? the home mills. The war has intercepted jute imports. the staple material on ' which southern mills have depended j^gularly for this class of manufacture. The large mills at Memphis are already considering the necessity of haying to manufacture cotton bagging put of cotton instead of Jute for wrapping bales. At five yards a bale, 15,t>OO.O(>0 bales of cotton yrould take '5,000.000 yard8 of cloth for this single new item of derpapd along. The policy of southern growers, if Europe fails to take its share of raW ^ cotton, would be immediately to ad-J w dress themselves to diversification to such an extent a* to cut the cotton crop down to less than 10,000,000 bales; that is, one-third below the absolutely necessary requirements to keep the world's spindles going. Europe has about 100,000,000 spindles out of 143,000.000 in the world's spinning equipment. There could be no greater ca jamny 10 inuusirmi xiiutwpt- nu ? a. manufacturing standpoint than a radical reduction of the American cotton # supply. That would bankrupt a majoi portion of their cotton manufacturing industry. Nor is this all. The loss of markets in various parts of the world for cotton goods is a possibility involved in the present crisis. The practicability of financing a loan pf $180,000,000 to carry cotton is probMt ably no more difficult than the valor!^ zatjop of Brazilian coffee in 1008. Vafioys proposals have been made, among which is that of issuing cotton bond" "f $100 in denomination and higher, to which general subscription throughout the south might be invited. It is generally regarded that this would have to be done priyatejy, as there would be much opposition to any governmental underwriting, unless it was fathered by the stales as such. I^ Unless something effective is underw taken a revolution in the cotton growing industry is inevitable before next spring.?Wall ^Street juUrnal. * ? i r?

Horton, Miss Rebecca Horton, Mrs. E. J. Boyd. Yorkville No. 0, Auk. 8. 1914. Card from Mr. Stevenson. (Advertisement.) Mr. Finley. in his letter today, read at Tirzah, states in substance, that the other candidate had been reported in The Enquirer as saying at Filbert that the Postal Bill, on account of which he returned to congress, had not been reported to the house up to that time. I said it had not "been called in the house," and the mistake of the reporter was natural. I have Mr. Finley's word at all the meetings that it had been reported ana wnen ready to be called up, he would have to go. I made the point that he could have stayed for the campaign meetings and still have had some days to spare, as it had not been called, and his letter shows that it had not been called till this week, more than a week after the campaign closed. I suppressed nothing. As to what I said as to his not voting, I said he had not voted up to Saturday night, July 25. on a single roll call, and the Record so shows. On Thursday, 23, he failed to vote, page 13677 of Record. On the same day, page 13687, he failed to vote, and on the same day, on call of the house for a quorum, he did not respond (page 13675). He excuses these absences on the ground that he has just arrived in Washington. He left Gaffney the night of the 21st, and recorded as being present on the call of the house, Wednesday, the 32nd. So he had been there 24 hours at 13 o'clock Thursday. vVhen he failed to answer on roll call of a quorum and When he also failed to vote on the only two contested votes that week. The point I made was that he could have stayed to the campaign meetings at York. Fort Mill, Chester and McConnellsvllle, without missing a thing he did not miss anyway. His letter was not read today tin 1 naa gpoKcn; nence 4 hnk that this be printed In reply to his statement, which refers to The Enquirer's statement. W. F. Stevenson. Yorkvllle. Aug. 7.
