The editor of The Manufacturers Record comments tersely on the sig nificance of the tour in the following language: "As pleasant and as profitable as the two weeks', trip in the South will be for the foreign spinners. It will give them only an inkling of that sec tion's wonderful capacity for manu facturing cotton. There will not be lacking for them evidence of whet the South has already accomplished in textiles, but to acquaint themselves with the many opportunities still awaiting the manufacture they should after they have made their swing around the circle, return to the South study carefully some of the represen tative mills there and investigate some of the great water-powers now under development, the coal resources and other elements entering into success in cotton manufacturing. Their knowledge unless they visit other cit ies than those included in their itiner ary. For that the best arrangements possible in the time allowed were made, but other cities would be well worth a visit." Matters to Bejceiye Attention.

COTTON MEN MEET Gathering In Atlanta of Users ami Producers WILL FIGHT THE SPECULATORS Lively Ti&t Over the Eegulatioa or Prohibition of SpecnUtivt Deal ing In the Staple Promises to Be te Chief Fe&tcre of the Irteraatiooii Conference, Atlanta, Ga.t Special. With dele gates present representing every phae of the cotton industry from the time it leaves the planter's hands to the time when the - produet woven into fabrics is sent -to markets of the world, and including representatives of many foreign countries, the inter national conference of cotton spin ners and growers met at the Statt Capitol building in this city for a three-day session. More than 500 delegates were present, nearly a hun dred of these representing the great mills of Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal, with an aggregate wealth in faiiu lands, cotton erop and mills of nearly four billions of dollars. During the sessions questions of the greatest importance to grower and spinner alike will be taken up for discussion and action, and it is hoped that this meeting wil result in a bet ter understanding between the men who produce cotton and those who weave the staple into fabrics. That this will result was indicated by the talk of many of the delegates after the addresses at this session, in which the great losses to spinners by reason of poor methods of hand ling and shipping the raw product were shown and the great saving that would be effected to both grower and spinner if more system and care were used in the initial handling of the pro ducts of the fields. A lively fight for regulation or pro hibition of speculative dealing in cot ton was also indicated before the com mittee on buying and selling when Congressman Ilefiin, of Alabama, in troduced a resolution asking the con ference to memoralize Congress and the British Parliament to stop specu lation in cotton except that actually owned. But the fact that an investi gation" following a similar resolution had resulted in a refusal by the Brit ish law-making bodv to disturb exist ing conditions was brought out, and a iavorable report by the sub-committee to which the matter was fin ally referred will Undoubtedly be ac complished by a vigorous minority re port against any such action Governor Hoke Smith, of Georgia, in his address of welcome to the dele gates, caused much applause by ad vocating the ginning, compressing and baling of cotton on the plantation and abolishing the manipulation of the middle man, and undoubtedly this feature of the cotton industry will icceive much attention. . The morning session was taken up laigely with addresses ot welcome and responses and tho appointment of committees. In his opening address Mr. Macoll outlined the objects of the conference 8nd niade suggestions for the elimi nation of ''iuerences between grower and spinner, and methods of increas ing the value of the product of the grower. He said that the planter, if he wants to sell direct to the spin ner, must in some way do the work of the middleman and have the same financial responsibility ; he must grade, carry and finance the cotton as the merchant does now. He added that gin-compressing would effect an enormous saving in transportation and insurance, and enable the over burdened railroads to move more ex peditiously the ever-increasing crop. He made a plea for a uniform bill of lading and expressed himself in sym pathy . with the report recently issued by a committee of the 'New York cot ton exchange on the certification of cotton and improved classification as to grade aftd staple. Mr. Bacoil re quested earnest co laednstnrol aretes quested earnest? consideration of the question of trading in futures and specnlation resulting therefrom. He concluded by urging the formation of a permanent international organiza tion of growers and spinners. Nashvile Warehouse Destroyed by Fire! . Nashville, Tenn., Special.
