VIII Refuse 20 Admit the Clam Of
British S1zersmty.
LONDON, March I7.-Tbere Is rea-
son 10 Lelieve, says the JOahannes-
burg correspondent Of the Times, that
at q meeting Of members OF the volks-
rasd at President Kruger's residence
yesterday strong opinion was eX-
pressed against admittings the claim
Of British suzersinty, and il was de-
cided to allow the government to take
advantage Of any complications 10
which Great Britain might be iD-
vOlved elsewhere.
PRETORIA, March ia widespread
sensation has been caused by the
declaration Of former Chief Justice
KOtZ, while addressing a deputatiOn
on Sunday, that when the case OF Mr..
Brown, the American engineer, with
claims against the Transyaal govern
ment pending in the courts, was
awaiting the judgment subsequently
given ia his favor. President Kruger
in an interview with him Judge
KOtzl threatened him with dismissal
unless he obeyed the vo ksraad resolu.
tion.
At a special session OF the volksraad
President Kruger declared Judge
KOtz's statement false. and said:
THE devil himself never told a
greater lie"
Haying given his version Of the
matter, President Kruger, turning to
the present situation, said that the
British people were jealous Of this
country's Independence and the prog
ress it was making. No one knew
what was going to happen, but they
must stand together. The govern
ment, he declared, had replied to the
British dispatch, and the reply would
be published directly. He knew that
IL had reached the hands OF Mr..
Cham berlain.
President Kruger concluded his
speech exclaiming:
I'VE shall show that we are a gov
ernment." { Loud cheers.)
His declarations left the impression
that the governments reply denied
the British claim Of suzeranty.
Judge Kotz has published, notes
supporting his statement as to the
interview with President Kruger
He declares that he regards himself
as still the chief justice Of the supreme
court until properly tried. He viii,
first appeal to the people, and, il
that fails him, he says he is bound to
prosecute his rights in other quarter!
and to appeal to the queens govern
ment.

Our State Leads the South In the Num-.
Der Of Cotton FactOrfes-The Increase
of SpfndIes In Eight Years Has Been
About o Per Cent.-The Largest
Part Of the Cotton Produced i'm the
State IL Consumed In Our Mills.
North Carolina is the leading manu-
featuring state in the south, and some
idea may be had of the growth of the
cotton mill industry when the stats
tics are examined. The statistics up
to August 81, 1898, show that North
Carolina has 1,018,303 spindles in oper-
alton, the second largest number in the
south. South Carolina has a few more
spindles but North Carolina has more
mills than any other southern state.
She has 1876 mills, including those un-
der construction, of 491 mills in
the sOuth-nearly 40 per cent of the
entire factories in the south.
North Carolina has more spindles
than the states of Arkansas, Georgia,
Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi and
Missouri combined. She has nearly
25 per cent of all the spindles in the
south. She has 1851 looms out Of a
total Of 103 ,305 looms in all the south,
or 23 per cent of all the looms in the
southern states.
Out of a total of II mills beginning
business within the year North Caro-
lima has six, or fifty per cent Out of
q mills under construction in the
south, North Carolina is building Il,
over fifty per cent. OF the 81 mills
idle in the south, North Carolina has
only four, or less than II per cent.
During the year ending August 81,
1898, the mills of North Carolina con-
sumed $50, 1902, S89 pounds Of lint cot
ton (332,801 baels), out of a total of
572, 946, 808, over 26 per cent. The
number of bales of cotton produced in
the state during the year ending Au-
gust 81, were 583, 900. During the
same period the mills consumed 1872
8O1 bales, or 81 per cen of the cotton
raised in the state.
The number of spindles in the Unit
ed States is 1872, 841 1875 of which North
Carolina has over n twentieth. Of
the new spindles beginning operation
in 1898 North Carolina had 1922 out
of a total of 1892, or more than fifty
per cent
In 1890 North Carolina had 344 sos
spindles, and in 1898 the number of
spindles had increased to 1,O1S,3O3. In
crease in the eight years nearly 200
per cent, while the increase in the
United States during the same period
was less than SO per cent.
Out of 1856 cotton mills in North
Carolina four are idle, a fact which
goes to show the healthy condition of
our manufacturing interests. Many
of the mills are running night and day
to keep up with orders.
Why can't Wilmington get in the
push, and build one or two mills in
the next twelve months?
