where. ,.o.s
As a matter OF fact so the members
of tho committee say. he was Senerany
,,ken charge OF and cared for before
similar courtesics were extended 10 MS
white colleagues.
ON Wednesday the committee got back
to Monroe. the little junction station
and as the train moved of and the COM
mittee was TO wait two hours for the
arrival of another train, the matter OF
getting food for Mr.. Teamoh again be-
a coiored clergyman took him In charge
and treated him with much courtesy
The committee then proceeded to Char
lotte, and in this city Mr.. Teamoh's host
was a member of another learned pro-
fession. Having had a lawyer at Atlanta
AMI clergyman at Monroe, he was taken
In charge at Charlotte by one Of the col
ored physicians of the city. At Char
lotte the members of the committee were
II. IL. .l.ss. flatt
but Mr.. Teamoh was not present.
he next day the committee went back
again to the little railroad junction at
Monroe. and here again there was the
same difficulty, but Mr. Teamoh left the
committee here and made visit TO some
relatives, Joining the party again at
Raleigh.
IN Richmond the committee had the
same experience. Mr.. Teamoh was turned
over to some of his own race.
The committee reached Washington this
afternoon, and Messrs. Darling, Hutch
inson. Eddy, Chandler. Donovan, Ban
croft and Moriarty registered at the Ar
lington. while Mr.. Tcamoh was taken
away by some of the prominent colored
men of the city. who entertained him.
He called this evening at the Arlington on
the other members of the committee, who
received him IN the lobby of the hotel
and treated him exactly as they would
under similar circumstances in Boston
In fact. throughout all the trip that has
been the demeanor of the members of the
committee, and any embarrassment which
may have bben caused to Mr.. Teamoh is
due entirely to outside influences and
This must be said IN fair
ness to his colleagues
The committee will he called together
soon, and its report will be presented to
the Legislature within n fortnight per-
haps. certainly within the next month.
It seems now as If there would be no
dissenting report, but that all the mem
bers would agree upon the principal
points of their investigation.
This is what the Herald correspondent
says as TO the views of the members OF
the committee concerning their report
to the Legislature;
The members of the committee have
not decided what the report will be, and
Will wait until they meet in executive
session. but of their general conclusions
there can bo 10 doubt, nor do the mem
bers express any. They are unanimous
on the main propositions. and Senator
Darling, of Hyde Park, the chairman of
the committee, summed up the combined
judgment of the members when he said:
There are three reasons why the South
cannot compete with the Massachusetts
cotton manufacturers:
in the first place. they have not got
the right kind of machinery: in the sec
Ond place, they have not got the necessary
skilled labor and in the third place. they
ave not got the required capital and
enterprise.
Senator Hutchinson said that unques-
-ionably the South had the advantage in
he manufacture of cotton goods of hav-
ng the material, the coal and the water
power all at hand. and of berg free
rom the large charges for the transpor-
alton of coal and OF tho cotton which !
New England mills had to pay. He had
heard ii said that the president of one
OF the great Lowell mills had stated that
should their property in that city be
burned they would never rebuild again
here. but gould get nearer the seacoast,
n some such city as New Bedford. a
mill al New Bedford could save 81 a ton
II the transportation charges for coal.
md this, I'm a years time. would mean
saving of $4,000 or $4,000
