sOUTH's INTEREST IN ASIA.
Far East May Soon Consume All the
SurpIus Cotton.

Charlotte. N. c., Oct 2s.-In addressing
a large gathering of Southern cotton man
ufacturers and planters at Charlotte, I'M
der the auspices of the Chamber of Conn
merce, John Barrett. late United States
minister to Siam, said:
THE South has vital interest IN Develop
ment and control of Asiastic markets by
America The time will soon come when
the Far East will consume every surplus
pound of cotton. manufactured or raw,
that the South can produce, making her
Independent of the markets OF England
and Europe. To accomplish this result.
four important conditions are necessary,
which in themselves are inter-dependent;
first, the construction of a trans-Isthmian
canal; second. the laying of trans-Pa-
clflc cable; third, the protection OF markets
In China, according to treaty rights; and
fourth, the permanent control of the Phil
ippines."
The sentiments expressed were received
with warm approval

WILL HAVE GOLF LINKS.
THE SAVANNAH GOLF CLUB ORGAN
lied LAST NIGHT.

Mr.. George j. Baldwin Chosen Presi-
dent, Maj. Bierns Gordon Vice
President and Mr.. Charles w.
Saussy Secretary and Treasurer.
Several sites for Links Under Con-
sideratiOn, But One Between Sa-
vannah and ThunderbOIt VIII
Probably Be Chosen.
A meeting of gentlemen interested In
golf was held at the Chatham Artillery's
Hall last night and a permanent organi-
cation was effected. About twenty-five
were present and Maj. Beirne Gordon
was elected temporary chairman. He
reported on the various sites which have
been under consideration for the links, and
though none was definitely chosen, it Is
understood that a site adjoining the Sa-
vannah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope
Railway, between Savannah and Thun-
derbolt will be finally selected.
An election of officers was held and re-
suited in Mr.. George ]. Baldwin being
unanimously chosen as president. Maj.
Beirne Gordon as vice president. and Mr..
Charles W. Saussy as secretary and treas
urer.
A number of names for the club were
discussed, but that of the Savannah Golf
Club was finally decided upon.
In a letter to the committee from MIR.
A H. Finley. formerly well known as
golf player but now in charge of the golf
department of Messrs. Wright & Dit
son, sporting goods dealers of Boston, the
offer was made to send to Savannah
competent man, who would not only lay
off the links, but, If 1t were found desira-
BILE, could spend this season here and
teach such persons as desired 90 learn the
game. A letter from Mr.. Parsons of The
railway company was also read, in which
he expressed mis- hearty approval OF the
effort and also his willingness 10 cooper
ate as soon as he understood more fully
the views and work of the committee.
Mr.. w. ]. Watson of the De Soto was
another enthusiastic abettor of the move
ment, for golf is now recognized as one
of the principal attractions of every up-to-
date winter resort, and Mr.. Watson has
no doubt that with links here that could
be used by tourists many of them would
remain over here, instead of going to
other places.
Maj. Gordon considers the fact that %
persons were in attendance though no spe-
Cidi GHOIl was hDdue 70 get AHeiu Ouli
most favorable sign, and he says that by
the end of this week fully 100 names IA be
enrolled These will be considered as char
ter members, and the committee on ru,es
which will report at the next meeting Will
decide on all points regarding the enroll
ment Of future members. At the next meet
ing, also, the president will appoint com
mittees on The house, membership and
green, also an executive committee.
The next meeting will be called by the
president and the place as well the
time win be decided later. MIR. Baldwin
was not present at last nights meeting,
being detained at home by illness.

MAY BE ANOTHER COMBINE.
Deal Believed to Be on Foot with
Savannah Fertilizer Men.

MEN,
That there is likely to be some new deal
among the fertilizer men of Savannah in
a short time IS more than probable. Not
only are there persistent rumors to that
effect, but a number of men interested
largely in the business have been here of
late, and conferences have been held be-
tween them and the resident dealers and
manufacturers.
Just what sort of deal is on is not
known. It may be either another case of
absorption by the Virginia Chemical Com
pany or the organization of a competitive
company. Il is more than likely that the
latter Is nearer the truth.
Color is lent to this view by the fact
that the more recent visitors deny all con-
nection with the Virginia-Carolina peo-
pie but at the same time refuse to state
the object of their conferences. One of
the most prominent, as well as one of the
most recent of these visitors is Mr. a. Co
jar of Paris, France, who is the president
of the Central Phosphate Company of
Beaufort, and is also interested in similar
works in other places. He arrived at the
De Solo Thursday and was accompanied
by two other well known fertilizer men,
one from Florida, the other from South
Carolina. He spent two days here in con-
slant communication with local operators.

Cambridge Mass, Oct. 2S.-While Har-
ward had no difficulty in disposng of the
famous Carlisle Indian eleven this after
noon on Soldiers field, the crimson play
ers were unable to keep little Hudson from
kicking his customary goal from the field,
and a wretched muff by Gierasch early
in the game. followed by a quick pickup
by Redwater, who ran fifty yards for a
touchdown, gave the visitors five more
points. making the final score % TO 10.
Scarcely a Harvard man was injured
during the entire game. On the other
hand, number Of Indians were sadly bat
tered. Wheelock was carried from the
field, and tonight is still in a serious con-
dition. His injury apparently resulted
from a blow about the head.
