DURHAM. X. c.. Dec. 3i.-specal-
Colonel Julian s Carr. president OF the
Blackwelrs Durham Tobacco Company
and one of the leading business men Of
the South. known far and wide for DIS
immense philanthropy, was interviewed
to-day hy your correspondent on the bust
ness Of Durham during the past year
and the outlook FOR the new year 1896.
He said.
THE business Of Durham for The year
1875. both in volume and in tone. was bet
tcr than for years past. The community
as a whole shows most substantial and
satisfactory Improvement. and J am pur-
suaded from the sign3 OF the time that
1896 viii show the best year Durham
ever had.
During the past year three ont o. four
of Durham's cotton mills have increased
their capacity. until now Durham can
cogut the greatest number Cf -pnd!es of
any point IN the State. Durham during
the year 1926 increased her number OF
hosiery mills from one 10 three, and IS
now perhaps the largest producer OF knit
goods OF any point in the State.
"Au Of this is IN addition 20 Durhams
tobacco interest. and b Is this that has
made her famous around the world. Dur
hams tobacco interest has been satisfac-
tory during the past year excepting. II
Sc may. the sales OF leaf tobacco these
sales showing a falling off.
THE building into Durham of several
railroads has caused rival markets 10
spring up in communities that heretofore
marketed their leaf tobacco on the Dur
ham market and the result has been TO
diminish the sales of leaf tobacco upon
this market. Although large quantities
of the leaf marketed in the nearby mar
kets afterwards reach Durham In hogs
heads IL is shipped here on specula ton.
"A pretty good barometer OF the bust
ness condition OF q tobacco town are the
internal revenue and postal receipts. Ny
prediction IS that Durham Will show the
most gratifying increase i'm both these
departments for the year 1895 Of any
point ia Virginia or North Carolina.
we have no boom or. hand, but our
community is on the nv upward with
considerable speed"

The White star Milling Company under

over the business Of 1891 of SO. 1914. The
Chesapeake and Ohio railway. suffering
10 a much larger extent ia its passenger
traffic, yet shows very comfortable in

The retail business has suffered great

and the close of the year finds our people

The hone that the Coast-line railroad

The schools Of oxford were never in
