Sheriff Ashley left yesterday afternoon for the Savannah city to bring the defendant hack to Anderson, lt was not anticipated that Simmons would offer any resisV-uce to returning to South Carolina with out requisition papers, and it ls ex pected that the sheriff will get hack today or tomorrow willi his prisoner. Fred .Simmons iK a brother of J. F. Simmons, who was arrested In Green ville last Saturday cn charges of hav ing assisted In the burning of the building. J. F. Simmons was brought to Anderson Sunday n.ul placed in the county Jail. Yesterday he was j carried before Magistrate Bonner, at Pelzer, who admitted him to bail in the sum of $300. A vouug white man by the name of Oscar Sergeant, who is charged, wltn having fired the building, was arrest ed here Saturday and still occupies a cell In the county Jail.' It IB limier stood that the warrant issued for thc arrest of Sergeant charges the 3er- | loug offense of arson, as the building Which was burned, a sUire room, war,1 in'clo.se proximity to a d.veiling which j was occupied at tho timo r?? the Ure. | The storeroom %hlcl; was burned belonged to one of the' Simmons boys nnd lt is alleged that it waa bumed In order that the Insurance might be collected. It was stated yesterday that a detective had been at work on j the case for the past several months, and a? tho warrants were issued up on the affidavits of Deputy State In- ' surance Commissioner Wharton lt would appear, that there ls truth in this report. When seen Monday by a representa-1 tlve Of The Intelligencer both Sim-' mr,n8 end Sergeant talked very free ly of the occurrence. Both, of course, denied having anything to do with tho burning of the building. J. F. Simmons ls well known here, he bftv- ' lng conducted the Blue Ridge Cafe here a year or so ago. All three par Mea alleged to have been Implicated In the affair have made Pelzer their, home, tt is stated, for thc past several years. . If ONCE!

Edmonds, of the Manu facturers'' Record of Baltimore, saya as a result of . a trip through the cot ton States: "It should be borne in mind by cot ton producers that they have this year grown, provided they pick it all, ' a crop that will largely exceed any ever before produced. Many of the best Informed cotton men in the South do not believe that cotton would have sold above 9 cents a pound, even if there had been no war. In view of the Immensity ot the crop, and some think ? ?tili lower,price would have prevailed. "The cotton growers have deliber ately injured themselves. Disregard ing all teaching and experience, they have kept on increasing their acre age. With better cultivation, and this year with a magnificent grow ing season, they have produced more than the world would have needed Iliad al? the spindles Cf this and other i lands been aa busy as could be."
