WANNAMAKER SEES COTTON COMBINE E uropean and American Speculators in League. Prices wIN Adv'ance. In1 a statement issued in Columbia Saturday J. Skottiwe Wannamakar, president of the American Cotton association, charges that a combine had been formed by certain 'luropean and American gamblers, manipulators and speculators to beat down the pric es of cotton and to accept the direct sale of off grade cotton. dIe declared that reports received by the associa tion from IEurope and from this cbun try show the absolute certainty that the demand far exceeds the supply. "Investigation made throughout Eu rope and America," said %Ir. Wanna maker, "by representatives standing at the head of tfe"cotton industry brings to light beyond the shadow of doubt the fact that we are facing the most )lIliiskI sittiation that has ever existed in cotton in the last 60 years. There Is every indication that combines of manipulators and manufacturers In England and America, who were caught short on the cotton market, have been formed for the purpose of beating down prices and primarily for the specifIc purpose of defeating the direct sale of low-grade cotton by the American Cotton association, realiz ing that the success of this sale neans the certainty of far higher prices, which would in turn, cause them fabu lous losses." Mr. Wannamaker made piiblic a re port from a representative of the American Cotton association in Eng land, which says in part: "Following a coiplete resiearch throughout Europe we are convinced that the 10nglish manufacturer is reap ing huge profits. lie is selling his manufactured product piractically wit.h out conpetition. A treniendous propor tion of the manufacturers of Europe are unable to secure the raw product and the field Is entirely open to the English spinners. Interviews and in vestigations bring to light the fact that -4durope will import the largest amount of American cotton ever im ported at any similar period within the last G0 years. The E1uropean spinners are alarmed over the short age ot the supply of raw cotton and feel sure that it will be exhausted be fore their pressing demand ('nn be supplied. Certain speculators are Chormously short on commitments of cotton sold.at far lower prices. Cer taini manufacturers are also caught on short sales. They have combined with certain American and Iuropean spec ulatora in a desierate effort to beat prices down, realizing that once the tirue conditions are-known it will be 1terly iilpossible to prevent colton from soaring to far higher prices.

Mulgrew's chummy musical revue which comes to the Opera -House on 'Monday, Feb. 16 under the direction of Boyle Wool folk, with the inimitable Max Bloom in the leading comedy role, is of the intimate drawing room type of enter tainment, which is achieving such in tense vogue on Broadway today. Boyle Woolfolk has established a r jputation .for prc&nt ing only the bl'ightest and cleanest style of musical revue. He has realized in many ways the ideals which prevailed in Ljondon at the famous Gaiety Theater. Pre sented In the original scenic setting which are marvels of taste and beau tiful design and interpreted by one of the strongest casts ever taken on tour, it is little to be wondered at that "My Sweetie" is taxing the capacity of the theaters in the cities in which it is being presented.
