Is shown by their comment on what
they saw from place to place.
The vast possibilities of the South
era States in the way of the produc
tion of cotton seem to have Impressed
an the members of the deputation.
Putting aside the possibility of , ex
tending the area by bringing Into
cultivation thousands of acres of suit
able land, almast all of the mem
fcers of -the delegation expressed the
opinion that if all the . territory at
present In use were cultivated scien
tifically, the crop might b almost
doubled in a few years. Noone ex
pressed the Idea tlat entire depend
ence should he -put upon, the Ameri
can crop. -Instead all declared that
their determination to prosecute the
cultivation of cotton In British . pos
sessions had een strengthened not
only in order to multiply the sources
of supplv, hut to offset the increased
consumption of cotton by the Ameri
can mills themselves. (Mr. aiacara
made frequent reference to the fact
that the domestic demand last year
called for 700,000 bales more than
the total yield 80 years ago.
ira. C. W. MACARA TALKS.
Mr. Macara, who Is president of
the International Federation of Mas
ter Cotton Spinners and Mahufactur-j
era. and who headed tbe delegation
of foreign visitors during their stay
In this country, t quoted as follows
In The .Manchester iuardiari of Oc
tober "30th
"I consider that the tour through
'the Cotton States and other parts of
America has been an entire success.
We have both gained and imparted
an immense amount of Information
that must be of great benefit to the
cotton industry. . We . found that
America Is a country of unlimited
possibilities, tout that much remains
to be done before the cotton-growing
industry can be considered to be con
ducted on the most approved lines.
I am convinced tha the yield of the
soli can be Increased toy Intensive
cultivation.
"'We saw a model plantation un
der State direction which had pre
viously never yielded more than half
a hale per acre, but was now yield
ing over one bale per acre. On ques
tioning one of the principal officials
as to the tost of producing this great
er yield, he said the Increased yield
was brought-about principally by
.scientific, treatment, and that the in
creased cost was comparatively little.
This plantation looked In excellent or
der, and had oil the promise of yield
ing a full crop of long staple cotton.
' In the same district we saw a well
managed private plantation. The
yield here wa aibout three-quarters
of a bale per acre, and the proprietor
was evidently a man who had pros
pered and taken life fairly easy. Hero
it was admitted that greater energy
would produce a larger yield.
" 'On this plantation there was a
modern ginning plant, ami ginning
was done for the small farmers in
ithe neighborhood. There was also
& compress, but It was not of the
most modern type, and therefore not
capable of compressing the cotton to
the density that would effect great
savings In carriage, .freight, insur
ance, etc. The bagging used was
also of the usual inferior quality,
Othvr plantations were visited, some
well and some badly managed. On
the former It was said there was no
'..'difficulty as to labor, whereas tho
latter complained !' the alleged
(scarcity of labor and were anxious
te dispose of their plantations. I urn
' fit opinion that the 'aibor question is
largely a matter of management and
proper treatment.
IMPORT A-XOE OK THK CONFER
ENCE. --me conmrence at A'latua was
Jn my opinion the most unique and
. important garnering ever neia in con
, nectlon with the cotton industry. The
European delegation practically rop
resented the who! .if Kurope. Then
the 2Trrthern and Southern Manufac

to cha-npion the cause of the plant-
ers and and possibly to enhance their
pohUenl reputation. Rhetoric was
rathtr Vo much In evidence, and the
. Abolition '.d the middle man played a
prominent part In the discussions, but
it toon became evident that some of
the proposals to acorn pllxh this were
thoroughly Impracticable, and the
spinners' representatives could not
follow the arguments of the planters
as to the advantages of direct trad-
:ing. What spinners wunt is the re-
" form of abuse In connection with
the cotton exchanges, which abuses
ere detrimental to the Interests or
both planters and spinners. The I
itlmate middle men wilt always be
required, and this became eelr-evl--
dent as the discussion mntimied.
" It mm decided to recommend to
the various aM(icKtr.in represented at
the convention the formation of a
, permanent orjanlxatlon to deal In
a systematic and careful manner with
,. all the problems connected with the
handling of cotton fnm the planta
tions to the mills. There was much
plain speaking all round, and I feel
that as ft . result very great progress
has been, made, as only by a frank in-

everyone was struck with the enor
mous developments that are taking
plae in all directions. I have no
hesitation in saying that this vastly
exceeded my anticipations.
"'For the last year or two spinners
have been complaining -bitterly of the
condition in which cotton arrived in
Europe, and no wonder as the streets
of some of the cotton centres were
practically blocked with cotton lying
exiposed to the weather. At Memphis
we were shown a great development
that Is taking plaje. large modern
warehouses having been erected out

installations of labor-saving appli

erection of warehouses at alemiphls
and other places demonstrates that
an awakening is taking place.
; INTERNATIONAL HARMONY.
" We were received - everywhere
with the most lavish hospitality and
unlimited kindness, and this also ap
plies to the splerdld arrangements
made by the Cunard Steamship Com
pany, both on the outiward and home
ward voyage. Our Pullman Palace
car were most luxurious, but we
could not but contrast the badly laid
lines with our aplendid English rail
ways, and we feel thankful that we
performed the long Journey of 4,600
miles without a single mishap, which
reflects great credit on the railway
officials in charge of the arrange

International congresses held m . Eu

years.
THE ' INTBRNiATI ONIAI 'FEDERA
TION.
Asked whether tho proposed new
International organization of spinners
and planters would not toe Ukely to
trench on the domain of tne existing
International Federation of (Master
Spinners and Manufacturers' Asscla-
tion, air. Macara said he had no such
fear. As a mater of fact, the pro
posal came from the representatives
of the spinners, and he supported It
heartily. If the' new organization
were formed its province would be the
discussion of matters connected with
the growing, the handling, and the
marketing of the raw material It
might he found possible, for instance,
to start model plantations for educa
tional purposes and to keep the
planter thoroughly in touch with the
requirements of the srplnner. Such
plantations might too put under Amer
ican management, assisted by the ad
vice of the representatives of Euro
pean and American spinners. Thenj It
would come within the, province or
the new organization to confer with
Ihe-parlous cotton exchanges with
the view t securing the making ol
rules to discourage .gambling in fu
tures and to remove other abuses.
'Mr. Macara has no great belief In
the practicability of abolishing Illegit
imate speculation by legislation. He
thifiks that-' what can he done will
be tes dona by voluntary effort , In
thfs cahntjt'tlon be tald stress on the
Importance at statistics as to the con
sumption, of, cotton .which the Inter
national Federation ur Spinners now
prepares and circulates. The Inter
national Institute of Agriculture, he
said, was now beginning to prepare
statistics as to the supply of cotton,
and the two sets of figures ought to
be A verjt powerful factor In prevent
ing gambling. The more convplete
the figures were made the more diffi
cult It Would be for the gambler to
cttrry on his operations, for uncertain
ty was one of the conditions necessary
to his occupation,
"He drew a broad distinction,
however, between gambling and le
gitimate transactions In 'futures.'
'A at present organized, at any rate,'
he said, 'the trade cannot do without
middlemen, and cannot do without
'futures,' and when I speak of gam
bling I wish It to be distinctly under
stood I am not referring to the ordi
nary transactions In 'futures,' which
are a necessity of the trade.' "
ANMC DOTES. IMPRESSIONS AND
INCIDENTS.
As tho Joyous groups of ipassengers
sortod themselves out and looked af
ter their luggage the,y frankly chatted
about their experiences, and many
amusing and instructive things wert
said. Necessarily they are disjointed,
but the spirit of them Is best convey
ed hy reproducing them as they were
uttered.
"We were all very much pleased
with the dignity and tact of our lead

our regard Jor him. , When he rose
to speak you could have, heard a pin

THE WORST IS OYER.
Mr. Edward Hobart, of Boston, Talks
' of the Financial Condition Here
and In tho North. ,
Mr. Edward Hobart, of Boston, is
in the city looking after the in
terests of the Carver Cotton Gin
Company, of which he la treasurer.
Mr. Hobart lives in Boston and is
in position to be well posted aDOut
financial affairs. He told an Observer
reporter that they have had a pretty
hard time throughout the North, al
most entirely for ' lack of currency,
but that there Is a feeling now that
the storm is practically over . and
that from this time on there should
be a convalescent period of perhaps
slow recovery. but recovery never
theless. Mr. Hobart thinks that the
South is in better position-than the
North, because there Is a valuable
cotton crop at fairly good prices
being marketed and largely ex
ported, and the money or credits Is
coming back against it. The acute
stringency Jn money has slowed up
the progress of export in cotton, but
doe not atop it, and this export
trade must, of necessity, grow In the
next 30 days. Even at, the present
rate it brings a tide of money to this
country, which comes ultimately to
the South.
Mr. Hobart says that now and
again we hear the present panic com
pared with that of '83. He points
out ' that in '93 cotton was very
cheap, and certa'lnly did not bring
back from Europe more than" half
the valu per bale that tho present
crop is bringing. At that time other
agricultural crops were not so good
as now, nor were prices. At that
time there had been several years of
poor crops and the country was In
poor condition to stand the panlci
It was a case of an invalid being
attacked by a special disease, where
as at the present time It is more like
the case of a robust man ' who has
eaten something that has disagreed
with him. He thinks that from this
time on there will be no trouble
whatever, excepting that feeling of
conservatism that a person has after
being badly scared, and he cannot
see but that the South ought to
completely recover as soon as any
other part of the country, because
of the Income from,, the fcotton crop.
Mr. Hobart Is in the South look
ing after Interests which relate to next
season's cotton crop, a crop which is
not yet planted. If he did not feel
tolerably certain that by and during
the next year trade conditions would
be fairly normal, he probably would
not be making this trip to lay lines
to extend his business.
