CHARLOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, SEPTEMBER 8, 1004. THE HOSIERY YARN MEN MEE1 thbVIkept their ows cot xsei. TIi Meetlag XV mm laforaial and Mmmr OBNtkiii Were IMaeaaaed Rrcalated-Yaraa Shoald Uo lp l,Oat a PaaaaWTa Cattoa Maaa , factawra Woala UN Give tt All That The? Old Same latervatla Twenty-four fine fellows, represent In 885,000 spindles in Southern hosiery yarn mills, met here yesterday, and kept the newspaper reporters guessing. At a late hour last night an. Observar man was still endeavoring to gi the one remaining spinner to -glf out something, but in vain. Then mill men came to town, 'registered at the hotels, touched each others' elbows and had a good time in an Informal way. Among themselves they discuss ed "cotton" the coming crop,, the preient prices ot the raw material and the finished yarns, and the like, but to outsiders they talked about anything but cotton. At 11 o'clock yesterday morning, the 24 mill men marched out of the Bu- forj Hotel", crossed the street, entered the vestibule and filed up the steps to the assembly room of the Southern Manufacturers' Club, where they held an informal meeting behind closed doors. All of this secrecy is not against the general public, but with a view of blacking the eye of some un ruly tradesmen. The meeting was In session for two hours before dinner and the entire af ternoon. Mr. Samuel A. Carter, of At lanta, was elected chairman, and J. F. Taylor, of Klnston, secretary, of the meeting. The first several hours were devoted to a general discussion of ques tions of peculiar Interest to hosiery yarn spinners. The men who attended the meeting pcrs!8te,ntlv declared that it was in formal and had no connection what ever with any organisation. It hnd been called by several prominent spin - tier who felt the need of some con certed action. The only definite action p Ken bv the spinners was in the shape of resolutions, the text or which was not given out for publication. One of these resolutions, an Observer man learned last night, was to regulate the quantity of "tare" in a case of yarn. Rome spinners have used five pounds while others used ten. The number of pounds was fixed. The "tare" referred to Is the paper that is wrapped around the rones of yarns to keep it from being damaged. The weavers have kicked about too much tare. Another resolution, if effective, will raise the prl of yarns one cent per pound. No definite Information could be wormed out of the spinners. One man swore that they had not done a d d thing. A commission man said that the mills were buying cot ton at 10 rents and selling goods on an eight-cent basis. A cotton dealer de clared that the country, mill man and everybody else, was short on tton Contracts had been made but the cot ton could not be had, and as a result men were buying futures to protect themselves. The crop Is slow about coming in. Many of the mills repre sented here yesterday are shut down others are running on short time. The following named mill men at tended the meeting yesterday: From North Carolina-!. S. Re n hardt, Uncolnton; J. F. Taylor. Kin ston: J. D. Rose. Henderson; J. K. Pugh, Durham: S. 8.
