OUR COTTON IN p

In a letter to the Baltimore
Manufacturers Record from
Yokohama, Japan, Col. John A.
Cockerill, the well~known cor
respondent of the New York
Herald, gives some interesting
facts about what Japan is doing
to increase it's cotton manufac-
turing and enlarge it's cotton
trade with this country. Col.
Cockrill says that the Cotton
Spinners' association of Osaka is
now trying to induce the Japa-
nese government to furnish a
subvention to a line Of steamers
to ply between Osaka, Yokohama
and a point on the West coast Of
Mexico. The idea is to C a
steamship line which will be
wholly controlled oy the Japa-
nese government, and which will
connect with the Tehuantepec
Railway. By this route they
think the cotton product OF our
Gulf States can be reached
cheaper than by the way of
Tacoma. Col. Cockerill thinks
it more than likely thai this en-
terprise will be carried out, and
adds:
Japan is destined to become
one Of the greatest cotton spin
ming countries Of the world. She
will purchase 80 per cent. of her
raw material in tie United States
when the transportation rates
are properly adjusted. To-Day,
with three rival steamship lines
between Japan and the United
States, freight can be shipped in
bulk from New York to Yoko-
hama via Europe cheaper than
from San Francisco to Yoke
hama. It seems almost incredi-
BILE that a vessel can be loaded III
New York and dispatched by the
way of the MEDITERRANEAN and Suez
Canal and can lay down freight
in Yokahoma for less money
than is charged for the same
when shipped direct from San
Francisco, a distance of 4, 500
miles. Nevertheless. this is true,
and it is being demonstrated ev~
cry month"
The Manufacturers Record, in
commenting on this statement,
calls attention to a very impor-
tant fact when it says that this
best emphasizes the importance
of the Nicaragua canal. 1t is
generally admitted that with all
open highway across the 18th
mus, it would be possible to find
in the East an annual market for
several million bales Of cotton.
General Grant, after his trip
around the world, estimated that
the South could place in Japan at
least 5000, 900 bales Of cotton a
year after the opening of the
Nicaragua Canal. Other invests
cations made since General
Grants visit have indicated the
possibility Of creating a market
for a larger quantity even
than this. With the inevitable
advance Of civilization which
must follow the oveTturning now
going on in the Eastern world
there will be a vast market for
the Southern cotton, provided
we can place it there at a low
freight rate, The 20, 900, OOC
people of Asia. who at present
use but a limited amount of cot
ton goods, will demand an in
creasing amount as civilization
advances The Nicaragua cana.
means the opening up to the
South of this almost unlimited
market, thus enabling this sec
ton to greatly increase its cotton
production on a profitable basis.

the right gradually and from day by
day to supersede its employees if it
can by new employees who will work
on its terms, or to superSede them all
at once when it has obtained a suffi-
cient number of new employees for
that purpose; but in such a ccntroyer-
sy it has not the right to stop its cars
while it is thus gradually getting men.

In the House.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The house
went into committee of the whole TO
| consider the bill to repeal that portion
of the tariff act of Aug. %, 1894, pro-
viding for the imposition of differ
ential Of one-tenth of ] cent on sugars
of all grades imported from all bounty
paying countries
During the debate Mr.. Wilson
branched off into a discussion OF the
governments revenues. 81 would like
to dispel from the minds Of the Amer
lean people," said he, "the common
and prevalent idea that the treasury
is in distress from the lack of rev
enues."
This statement was received with
Jeers On the republican side but Mr..
Wilson waved it off deprecatingly, de-
claring that so far as the revenue was
concerned, the treasury was flush and
In no danger of default. Instead Of
bankruptcy staring US in the face"
said he, amid howl of republican de-
rision, ''we are moving steadily and
persistently toward a surplus"
Mr.. Dingley, of Maine, and Mr.. Hop
kins, of Illinois, challenged his figures
Mr.. Wilson replied that the present
trouble with the treasury was not a
lack of revenue, but Of depetion Of
the gold reserve.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-President
Cleveland's policy toward Hawaii was
sustained by a vote Of "a to % liz the
senate. The resolution was offered by
Mr.. Vest as an amendment to the
previous resolution on the subject by
Mr.. Allen, and is as follows:
Resolved While the people of the
United States earnestly sympathize
with the effort to establish republican
institutions wherever an effort is,
made, they reaffirm the policy of non
interference, unless by agreement,
with the affairs of other nations and
recognize to the fullest extent the
right of every people to adopt and
maintain their own form Of govern
ment, uDawed and uninhuenced by
foreign dictation.
THAT the administration of Presi-
dent Cleveland in maintaining this pol
icy as to our foreign relations deserves
the approval aud support of the Amer
lean people,"
The vote was on party lines, with
the exception Of Mr.. Pettigrew (rep),
of South Dakota, who voted with the
democrats. By a singular coincidence
this one vote carried the resolution,
as it would have failed on a tie had
the vote been on strict party lines.
This action practically disposes Of the
Hawaiian question from time to time
ON various pending resolutions crit
cising administratio ton.
An agreement was reached that the
bankruptcy bill should have the right
of way until disposed of.
At three O'Clock the senate heard
eulogies on the late Representative
O'Neill, after which, as further mark
of respect, the senate adjourned.
