MILL BUILDING IN THE SOUTH.
This Year Promises tobe an Important
One for the Textile Industry.

The Louisville Courier-Journal says:
Last winter Massachusetts became so alarm
ed over the prospect OF losing her cotton
mills that o Legislative committee was sent
down South to investigate tho extraordinary
advantages offered by this new manufactur-
ing region. This committee was followed by
another of manufacturers While their in
vestigationS were not wholly discouraCing
to New England enterprises, the manufac-
turing States Of the South were given an ad-
vertisement OF priceless value. The result is
seen in the American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter's list of the now mills under construc-
tion in the United States during the first six
months of the year.
The showing is n remarkable one. North
Carolina takes the lead with thirty-one new
mills and number of costly enlurgementS OF
old plants. South Carolina has twenty-five.
Georgia fourteen. Alabama five, Texas and
Virginia three each. Arkansas two and Lou
1siana one. Pennsylvania comes next TO
North Carolina, with twenty nine new plants
and New York. with twenty-thrce, finishes
ahead of South CA Dina by a bare nose.
Massachusetts, has only nineteen, and New
Jersey exactly as many as Georgia.
This year promises to he an extraordinary
ono for the textile industries. The number
of new enterprises begun during the SIX
months is 2O1. while for the first six month.
OF 1894 il was only 1lG and the total for the
year was but 263. The proportion Of cotton
being T3 of these to IS woollcn. 81 knitting
16 silk and II miscellaneous.
Not only does the South build Il fine pro-
portion Of these new mills; she also has s0mo
oi IN" largest TO her credit. The principal
ones ar" th" Georgia branch of the .-sl-
"hGsrtts Cotton Mills. at Rome" with ~ 00G
Spindl"- and 900 looms: the Hampton. y g..
Cotton Mills. with 50.O03 spndics and zoo
looms. and so 600 spindle mill at CRANKY,
S. c.
1t is hard to guess how much this vast out
lay of capital means to the whole country
but especially to the South. ManufartO cries
have been SO scarce down this way that a
few go long distance; but this will not al
ways be the ease. Then this activity in mill
building means great awakening in the
textile industries and better prices for raw
products. In the face Of the new clip wool
is advancing rapidly, rising cents pound
last week, although the imports rcmark;,.
bly, heavy. Cotton is certain to go up. too;
but even if it did not the planters would
profit indirectly by having the new market
n their doors.
The South will never hold all the cotton
mills in the Union. For long time vet
Massachusetts will retain her sceptre. SILL
her advantages are becoming apparent to
the world, and in the future she will capture
the majority OF the new enterprises.

A TRAIN HELD UP.
Six Mounted Robbers DO Their Work
EXpcditiously.

An express train on the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern Railroad, was held up by
six masked men Wednesday midnight. at a
lonely place in the woods known rs Reece
Siding, between Archibald and striker. Ohio.
The train stops there to let the eastern
express pass. The lattere train was an
proaching when the robbery took place The
robbers were mounted and rode out of the
woods, which are dense and close to the
track. Conductor Darling. who was stand
ing near one OF the coaches, was ordered
inside at the point OF a revolver. Admission
to the express car was obtained by the same
means, and the messenger was forced to
open the sn!e. The amount reported to have
been obtained by them is said to be $4,000
but it is believed that n much larger sum
was taken. No attempt was made to modest
the passengers, many OF whom knew nothing
OF the occurrence. When the thieves had
secured the contents Of the safe they rode
quietly away.
