Charlotte, Dec. 8.?In response to a call by a committee representing the North Carolina Manufacturers' association, over 100 cotton manufacturers, representing 244,392 spindles and 8,095 looms located throughout the southern states, met here today ;and inaugurated a plan for the curtailment of the production of cotton goods by the mills of the entire country. A committee of 15 was named to meet a similar committee from other sections and agree to decrease production throughout the United States. Even before the meeting was convened it was evident that the! _ . I -one purpose of the session would be to curtail production or to make an effort in that direction by a joint resolution. Alfred A.Thompson of the Raleigh cotton mills made a motion that the necessity for the national curtailment, be considered the sense of the meeting. Mr. Thompson suggested that a meeting should be held in Washington, at which representatives of manufacturers from all parts of the world might discuss this great question on a common ground. He took occasion to predict a largo cotton crop for! next year. Mr. Thompson's mo- | tion was referred to a committee) of three which, after a halt hour's j deliberation, made the following report which wan adopted with but one dissenting vote: Rebolved, That with the view! (?f securing national curtailment, which we think absolutely neces sary to the cotton industry, we recommend that a committee of 15 from the North Carolina association he appointed by the chair! to nit f t in Washington city at as early date as can be agreed upon, with like committees troruj other states. l'hat the ot >er southern states, middle and New England stat be invited by the chairman of tl is meeting 4o appoii t similar con .ttc-os which, when they r -ei ui Wa- ding ji? uh u joint, committee, will formulate a plan ! that will bring about curtailment throughout the country. And that thin joint committee immediately call a national meet- ^ ing of manufacturers at such place and date as they can agree upon. After the reading of the motion * there was an interesting discussion. W.C.Heath of Mouroe,N.O., 1 f president of the AmericanCotton Manufacturers' association,stated * that he did not think it would do * ?ny goou co attempt to curiuu unless a forfeit was put up that * would be binding upon all men ^ concerned in the matter. He thought that immediately follow ' ing the meeting there should be * held in the different southern c states meetings of manufacturers at which committees should be * appointed and the sentiment of w the bodies could be expressed at * a meeting to be held conjointly * with the New England or north c em people. He said the meeting would be unwise to put itself in 1 a position where it seemed to try to depress the price of cotton. v Curtailment is all right but not c now. Curtailment should not s begin before July or August when the proper care could be * taken of the operatives. Mr. * Heath criticised the tendency that sought to damn the specula 1 tors; was tired of hearing this censure of Brown and Sully and 1 Frank Hayne. lie knew that 1 two-thirds of the men did what Mas termed gambling iu the cot ton market. President Gordon of the Georgia Manufacturers' association in j response to a call for a speech | Haid that he favored the plan under consideration and believed that curtailment was the only solution. He thought the price of cotton would remain high. Ir remained for the manufacturers to regulate the price of their goods A Frightened Horse.
