meeting yesterday afternoon, and
;: speaks in no uncertain terms." Mr.

The arrest of Dennis Robinson, col
ored, this morning for selling whiskey
o;i Sunday without license, make the
third arret of this kind that has taken
place this week and goes to show that
there were more blind tigers in G lds
bol'O ;han the public knew- of. One
of the other offenders was a woman
who had been buying corn whiskey in
jugs and. selling it to whoever .would
care to buy. In addition to being a
violation of the city laws it is a vio
lation of the Federal laws and when
the city is through with these "blind
tijrer" people the government may take
a hand in the matter. There is Jit
tip doubt but that such people are Te
sironsible for a large part of the Sun

"Whereas, By the published statement
of the Insurance Commissioner, through
the circular of the Greensboro Fire In
surance Companies, it is shown that for
the past three years the fire insurance
companies doing business in this State
have made a net profit of 2o per cent,
allowing per cent for general ex
jienses and 40 per cent for their losses,
according to the record, and in the face
of these facts the 'Southeastern Tariff
Association has advised our local tire
insurance agents of an increase of 2"
per cent on all stocks of merchandise
and manufacturing plants; we therefore
express it as our opinion that this in
discriminate increase is burdensome and
unjust, and should not be endured with
out a protest; and

"Ttesolved, That we strongly endorse
this movement on the part of the Caro

vanced rates,' as they apply to this city,
and urgently request the officers of the

A member of the .crew of the United
States steamship Algonquin, which sen
dered such valuable assistance in saving
the crew of the wrecked Spanish steam
ship Ea, which foundered last Saturday
on Cape Lookout Shoals, writes inter
estinglv as follows about the rescue:
"The Spanish steamer Ea went ashore
at Cape Lookout Sboal Saturday niorn
in" at 0:H0 o'clock, loth inst. She
hailed from Bilboa. pam. and was
I bound from Florida to Xew York, laden
with rosin. The misfortune of the
steamer was learned by. the revenue cut
ter Algonquin Saturday night at 9
o'clock at Southport. and she immediately-steamed
under four boilers at full
speed to the stranded vessel, which
was a distance of 100-miles- The able
cutter, notwithstanding the weather, ar
rived at the scene of the monster ship
Sunday morning at 7:30 o'clock, accom
panied by the steam tug Alexander
Jones, and there what met our gaze
was ever to be remembered. A sinking
ship-and no possible, way to render any
assistance whatever! Owing to shallow
water and heavj- seas no ship or boat
could reach them alive. XighUcauie on,
and the steamers were compelled by the
weather to return to their moorings.-
"Monday morning at daylight the
steamer's condition Was decidedly worse,
breakers rising .clear across her An
other day i passed. All efforts to reach
the ship were absolutely fruitless. By
the aid of glasses we could discern the
crew huddled together on the bridge
of the doomed vessel, which. .was then
their . only refuge other than the rig
ging. Some were hanging to the rig
ging. Monday night the ! frantic crew,
consisting of twejity-six alt told, resorted
to their last possible chance of saving
thflir lives by lowering away their boat,
which would carry only thirteen, one
h&lf of the crew, leaving the' rest to
Providence. The breakers were then
to "the mastheads. Then it grew calm
for about ten minutes and the skilled
life-savers who' were near by dashed
through the seas and succeeded in saving
the other portion of the crew, who other
wise would have gone down into the
deep. But in a few minutes the whole
crew were safe aboard the wrecking
tug Merritt. of Xorfolk. which was the
nearest vessel at the time. The ship
broke iu two and went down soon-after-wards.
"The Merritt then transferred the un
fortunate crew to the Algonqnin, where
they were soon snugly clad in dry clothes
and all other things needed were pro
vided. The Algonquin then proceeded-to
th6 nearest point, Morehead City, where
the crew will be duly eared for by our
bovs. At last accounts the huge steamer j
was breaking to pieces on the shoals.
"Another wreck was towed into Look
out Sunday morning, that of the yacht
Endymeon. dismasted and totally dis
abled. She was picked up by the wreck
ing tug Merrjtt."

RETARDED GROWTH
The South at Last Coming
Into Its Own
Baltimore, March 20. Special. For
a long time the South was content to
be a producer of the raw material to
be; manufactured at great gain in other
parts of the country. Referring to that
fact and to the causes which retarded
the industrial growth of the .South, the
Manufacturers' Iteeord this week says:
"That it is coming into its own is de
monstrated by the fact that while the
value of manufactured products in the
whole country increased 142 per cent
between 18S0 and 1000, the value of
manufactured products in the South in
crease! in the same period 220 per cent.
In the meantime, the value of manufac
tured products in the South increased
from eight per cent to eleven per, cent
of the value of manufactured products
in the country. That fact, taken in
connection with the obvious expansion
of manufacturing in the South during
the ilst ten years, shows that much
of the increase in its manufacturing
has been but an increase in the first
handling of material for lucrative man
ufacturing elsewhere, for, with a pop
ulation of 23.000.000 the Sonth's man
ufactured products in '1900 were value
at $1.4(56,000,000. while the rest of the
country, with a population of o3.000.000,
produced to the value of $11,374,000,
000. Still the South has the proper
gait, and the rise in recent years of
new indrptrinl centers in nearly every
Southern State from West Virginia to
Texas, and the enlargement of under
takings in older communities, with the
manifest tendency toward diversifica
tion in manufacturing, indicate the de
fermiuation of the South to use to tae
utmost all of its magnificent resources
for its" own enrichment and for the wel
fare of the whole country."
Many of the influences contributing to
the position which the United States
now occupies in industry and commerce
are traceable directly to the develop
ment of Southern timber, agricultural
and mineral resources, rind more than
one Southern product lias been foremost
in what is known on the other side of
the ocean as the "American Invasion."
Still. American energy, enterprise and
abundance of natural strength are not
alone to be considered in explanation
of the progress recently made. Faults
of the older countries are concerned in
it. Referring to one of these. Mr. F.
E. Saward. the well known American
authority on coal, writes in the Manu
facturers' Record: "As showing the
backwardness of coal-handling in Lon
don, compare it with ours. Iu America
the coal cart Is loaded in less than live
minutes from an elevated coal bin. In
London an ordinary wagon is made to
carry about a dozen large bags of coal,
which are filled one by one at an ex
pense of much time and labor, and then
lifted into the vehicle like so many milk
cans. In America when the coal cart
reaches the house "where its load is to
be dumped, the cart is backed up
against the side of the pavement? the
chute is drawn out like the barrel of a
telescope and the end inserted in the
coal hole. In a few minutes the entire
load runs down into a heap on the floor
i of the coal cellar. In London, on the
other hand, each bag of coal has to be
taken separately from the wagon and
emptied as near as may be in the coal
hole, and when the task is at latst finish
ed the coal which has fallen over on the
pavement has to be laboriously shoveled
into the coal cellar. And so it goes.
In all methods the old country, is be
hind its younger and enterprising off
shoot. "The trade press seeing and knowing
what is done in this, country tried to
awaken public interest there, and such
k statement as this is not unusual: The
whole question of the relative cost of
production in this country and in the
United States is one beset with awuv
difficulties. The conditions snT:uid:nir
industry in the new and old worlds vary
widely. Our coal pits are bec-jumis
deeper every year. In Lancashire coal
is being mined not far from what a re
considered to be the present limits.

These are some of the disabilities under
which the United States has not beon

that coal Is here generally mined at the

accountable for the high individual out
