8hW&2iS^?^
"Our people In the department, who
are qualified to judge of such matters,
say that there can be no reason
able doubt that this year's cotton crojis
more largely ginned to date thar
ever before. In the first place, the
crop is a very small one and undm
such conditions the percentage ginned
to date would naturally be large. Ir
the second place, the season has beer
unusually forward and reports from
practically all sections of the cottor
Deit indicate tnat picking nas Deer
practically completed. In Texas both
picking and ginning is much tfurtho'
advanced than usual and about completed
except in the northwest corno'
of the state. In I^rth Carolina rapid
progress in picking has been made. I
Alabama picking is finished in mos1
Southern and central sections and iselsewhere
well advanced, with ginninp
progressing rapidly. In Mississippi
picking and ginning has made rapid
progress. In Arkansas the cotton is
all picked in some localities and three

was in total darkness and newspaper
plants there suspended along

worse since 1897, the west coast having
heretofore been largely immune
from the tropical hurricane.

W. A. Kelsey, conductor on the first
Atlantic Coast Line train arriving
from Tampa, said he was in Port
Tampa yesterday when the full effect
of the storm began to be felt. He described
the rise in the tide as a tidal
wave, two to ten feet of water quickly
covering most of Port Tampa city.
Mouses are being unroofed and destroyed
by the wind. The railroad
phosphate terminal elevators are
heavily damaged. Tampa is without
electric pwer.
