THE DIRECT TRADE PROF ECr.
Business Men Not Opposed, But Say
It Seems Impracticable.

Business Men Not Opposed, But Say
It Seems Impracticable.
A MORNING NEWS reporter, while making
his usual rounds on the Bay yesterday,
found the business men discussing with a
great deal of interest the direct trade ques-
ton, which will be the subject of consld-
GRAFTON by the direct trade convention,
which will convene in Atlanta tomorrow.
The generally expressed opinion OF the bust
ness men is that they would like to see
direct trade established and made
success, but they hardly con-
slider it possible under the existing cir
cumstances. They say that the cotton crop
must be moved promptly; that it goes to
different ports, aud that the entire crop
must be exported within period of four or
five months, which would require quite a
large feet Of steamships and as long as re-
turn cargoes cannot be secured the direct
trade proposition does not seem to them to
be practicable.
The business men say it would be a good
thing for Savannah if it could be made a
success, but the practicability of the
project will only be assured when
return cargoes can be ! secured,
mails carried to and from southern ports,
and the tide OF foreign emigration turned
this way. Until such time they think that
direct trade would entail loss upon those
who would embark in it. The tramp
steamships, after moving the cotton from
this side, find ample trade with other coun-
tries and can afford to come over here in
ballast, it being very rare cases when foreign
vessels coming to this port have cargo, an
occasional vessel bringing cargo of salt,
sulphur or KANT

reporter of J. L. Whatley, Esq, yesterday.

ing TO put money into It IEdeed,
those who understand the workings of ordi-
nary building and loan associations viii
readily understand ths plan OF building this
factory. We expect to have l 900 shares Of
stock, payable monthly. until not more than
$500 per share has been paid in. The
monthly installments viii be S. per share.
As soon as the association runs for little
while, long enough TO make it safe, the
money will be raised, the factory built, and
the debt created for that purpose paid of
with the monthly installments and the
profits Of the factory. No profits will be
divided until the mill is fully paid
for and has comfortable surplus
TO work with. Il Is easy TO see that this
will place the enterprise eventually in the
hands of these mutual stockholders free
Whatever the factory is worth when paid
for will be the property Of the stockholders;
hence there cannot be such a thing as
total loss as in some cases where bonds are
issued secured by mortgage upon the prop
erty.n
"Do you think a factory of the kind
would pay herep
From all the information have been
able to gather" replied Mr. Whatley, "a
factory manufacturing a fine quality of
brown goods or bleaohed goois would pay
well. OF course, like every thing else, it
will depend upon management. The loca-
ton of such factory here would give an
impetus to our city which is difficult now Co
realize. We have almost everything else in
Savannah besides factories. II we can add
them to our other industries we will soon
have great city here"
In conclusion Mr.. Whatley said: "You
can say that the factory will be built IL the
community will only lend me the aid and
encouragement that is necessary to the
success of such an undertaking"
