Cotton prices have cpqtinued
to advance recently, in spite, of an
iucreased croj1) movoBoetfit. Values
are row. nearly s cents per pound
higher than they were a year ago.
.Exports of cotton to the close of
January were nearly 2,000,000 ,
b^ales short of the amount shipped
during the first five months of the
previous season, and th^ European
stocks are now 50> per cent,
smaller than they were a,year
ago. Foreigners have become
eager buyers at prices, fu^ly I per
cent higher than those which they
regarded as extreme a little more
than a year ago. The belated demand
to replenish ioreigu stocks, i
tjie activity of domestic nulls and
trade recognition of the fact of a
small crop are the substantial
bases of the risQ.ia pfices.-~.Phi la- '

State after May lit, 1900^ and both >
sides of the question were ably
presented by the contending senators.
The chief arguments used
by the opponents of the bill were
tbat if the bijl was passed that it
would not ouly seriously impair
the manufacturinginterests of the
State, but it would also cut off the
means of subsistence, of, many
widowed mothers.

This District
A reporter for the Evening Post (
called on Senatot Barnwell this
morning and tisked him whether he (
had seent he statement of Col. EJ- ,
liott that ho was coufident of reeleetion.'
Mr. Barnwell said the
campaign had commenced so caxly j
that he was afraid the people would .
get tired of it Before it ended* but .
he supposed the newsj?pers had a
1 1 * - 1 * * "* AM Tf

was useless, he said> m tell the Uvea- 1
ing Post what the comlitiou iu 1
Charleston was, for its reporters (
knew as much of the city as he did. J ]
It could not be expe:ted, said he>!
that he would get all of the votes, <
but many of those who had differed. <
with him in former contests were <
for him* and warmly for him, at the j
present time. This, Mr. Barnwell <
said, was very gratifying to him. <
In Colleton county he believed he <
would receive a majority of the votes <
and he was sure he would dc so in <
Berkelay, and he eaid he hwould get
a handsome vote in his boyhood
home, Beaufort, and iu Williamsburg.
The County Ileaprd, of. Kingstree,
the only paper yriiited in Williamsburg
county, said Mr. Barnwell, had
come out for him. The Palmetto I
Posbwus for him, one of only two
papers published in lSeaufort, tlxother
paper being own^d by Colonel j
Elliott's son. He said he had many j
friends in Georgetown, though of ;
course Col. Elliott started out with
" . " . 1 c
everything favorable to him there.)
In 1895, he eaid Georgetown polled;
GOO votes^out of the 8.000 registered
f<?r the 0i.?triet.
Mr. Barnwell was asked what be,<
thought cf the adverse expressions j 1
of "The- State" newspaper. i (
lie said he announced at the be- j '
ginning that the campaign was to be j?
conducted without personalities, aud j
so far as he was conce?tied he in- i
tended to continue, that course to j
the end. lie.said that he was glad }
.. . . ... . |
to see that no newspaper supporting!
him had said anything disagreeable!
to Col. Elliott or to his friends. Mr. |
Barnwell said it was .some compen- '
sation for the labors of the cam- (
paigu and the .unpleasant criticisms ,
of two papers supporting Col. Elliot
to read tbe pleasant things said
I
i
about himself.
Mr. Barnwell was asked as to
what the relationship between Col.
Elliott and himself was, as it had
been asserted that they were first
cousins. He said that his grandfather,
Robert Barnwell, who had
represented the Beaufort congressional
district in the first congress
if the United Stares, was the brother
if the mother of Col. Elliott's grand-1
father, which, he said, was the near- j
ist connection between Col. Eliiott j
wd himself, lie said he did not:
too what, relfttiniiflhin had to do in i
,vv " X
the matter* though he vitas very1
proud of his relationship]! to so honorable
a gentleman as Col. Elliott.
>Ir. BamweU said the fact that
in supporting Col. Elliott in former
;ampaigns he had been allowed
to say in his support that the Colonel
would not run against any representative
Charleston man or any
man representing the business interests
of the city had, as he had
stated when he first thought of becoming
a candidate^ made it natural
that it should be supposed that Col.1
Elliott would not oppose him. but
he still thought, as he also had

in formei canvasses bhould not bind
Uol. Elliott now, though it made it
perfectly consistent for those who
had supported the Colonel in former
campaigns to oppose him now.
Mv. Earn well said lie had in no
seas* proposed himself. He said
there would have been strong opposition
to Col Elliott iu this campaign,
as there had been in the last.
Ihe feeling was very strong that a
Charleston man should represent the
iistrict. and it would have combined
>ii same one else if he had not con- j
sen ted to make the race.
He said he believed he was uniting |
Charleston and not dividing it by r
risking the contest. Evening Post.j
