can to furnish our quota of the $4,000

Butler in his statement as to the con-
troversy between himself and the Bar

Butler complains that he was not per-
mitted to speak on the subject of the
Mason Laundry matter before our
union. The reverse is the case. He
was given every opportunity to express
himself, and was only called to order
when he digressed from the subject un-
der consideration. He says we refused
to go with him to Mr.. Mason. and re-

this, and on the contrary assert that
Mr. Sarrett and myself were appointed
a committee from the BARRIERS Union
to call on Mr.. Butler and ask him to

Mason's laundry to union laundry.
Mr. Butler asked US to call with him
on Mr. Mason. We told him we would,

man who has done this successfully
would be doubtful experiment. Its
effect on the enemy would be to give
them great rallying cry in which they
will represent that the Americans had
to recall their greatest Indian slayer
because he did not kill enough Tagalos;
or they will declare that owing to the
fight they have put up the Americans
have lost heart. and the recall of Otis

Alleged Embezzleznent, and the Ac-
cused's Explanation.

j. II. Brown was yesterday arrested
by Officer Pennish on a warrant sworn
out by w. E. Rudell an insurance
agent, charging him with misdemeanor
embezzlement. The amount alleged to
have been embezzled is SIS.
Brown, who had no difficulty in fur
nishing bonds, says he was employed
by Rudell, who owed him some money
he collected SO for his employer, and
after doing so consulted his attorneys
with view to placing an attachment
ON the money. They advised him that
such a proceeding was unnecessary,
and, he says, told him to keep the
money on account of what Rudell
owed him.

as individuals, but not as committee,
for we had been appointedAsolely to
wait on him for the business which
we had indicated. Mr.. Butler agreed
to this proposition, and last Monday
morning was selected as the time for
such call on Mr. Mason. Mr.. Butler
did meet with us on Monday morning,
but insisted that in the conference with
Mr. Mason, Mr.. Sarrett and l should
appear as an official committee. AS
we had not been appointed for any such
purpose, we declined, and that is why
no conference was held between Mr..
Mason and us, We did. however, re-
new our offer to go with Mr.. Butler as
individuals, but it was refused.
Mr.. Butler is in error when he says
we threatened to boycott him. have
his shop watched, and have the names
of his customers taken down. In the
conversation with him in reference to
keeping Mason's Laundry in his shop
and losing his union card, 1 will say

I told him in that spirit that the reten

treated with the utmost consideration
in the matter, having been given one
weeks more time to change his laun-
dry than was given any other shop.
In conclusion, l will say we telephoned
Mr.. Butler last night that if he did
not change his laundry office by this
morning we would call and take his
card. We did call this morning and
asked him what conclusion he had ar
rived at. He replied: "There is the
card on the wall. You can take it,"
We did so. That is the story as it oc-

Their difficulty arises principally from
the fact that they are bright, deductive
reasoners and inclined to anticipate
events. Whitelaw Reid was in demand
once when he watched developments
for awhile and sent off a dispatch out
lining very closely a contemplated
movement of Sherman's. Sherman had
probably figured weeks on his plan, and
when Reid gave it away he thought
he could with advantage give him a
job building forts where he could keep
his eye on him. Very likely the same
thing could occur in the Philippines

vantage. Even as it is, I doubt that

Death Of w. r. Bullock

It is not frequent In chronicling the
events of the day that we are called upon
to publish one as sad as the death of
Wilbur +. Bullock, who died of typhoid
fever at the hospital Saturday night. his
death being the third out of five in the
family sick with the same disease.
Young Bullock was 90 years of age, a
most exemplary young man and was to
have been married this fall to young
lady from LaConner, who was with him
at the time Of his death.
The funeral took place at the Congre-
gational church on Monday, Rev. Dent
officiating, and although the rain came
down in torrents large number OF sym
path:zing friends were present among
whom were the BARRIERS of the city who
attended in body, six of them acting as
pail bearers.

of cotton goods this section, though
making marvellous progress, is still
only getting we'll started. There are
about 100, 900, 900 cotton-spindles in
the world. The South furnishes the
cotton for about three-fourths of these,
or 75, 100000 spindles; but has only
100000 spindles. To consume in
its own mills its crop OF 10000, 600 to
100000 bales would require the
investment of over 81, 500, 900 in new
mills, and long before that point could
be reached, even at the present rapid
growth, the world will annually re-
guire of this section from $4,000, 900
to 3O.OOO,OOO bales. In 1880 thu
South started on its cotton-mill de-
yelopment with a basis of 667, 900
spindles, representing q capital Of
S21, 900, 900. By 1890 it had $751;
600, 1000 capital in this industry and
], 700, 900 spindles. To-day it has
5000, 900 spindles and about $685.
600, 600 of capital invested in cotton
mills, while mills under construction
represent about $25,OOO,OO0 more.
The most significant sign of the times
in this industry is that New England
mill-owners, recognizing that the
South is bound to win, are transfer
ring large capital to Southern mills. A
number of the leading mill companies
of tho former section have, during the
last few years, built branch mills,
costing from 100000 to $1,0o0,000
each, in the South; and now one of
