Mobile, Ala, Oct. 2S.-The startling
news was received int his city yester-
day that fourteen people had been
buried to death at q place known as
FARES, in Baldwin county, about thir-
ty miles northeast of here. The in
formation was brought to this city by
Capt. Joseph E. Jordan, who resides in
the locality Of the fatality. 1t ap-
pears that some time during Monday
night fire destroyed the dwelling Of
Harry Goodlow and also that of SAM
uel SlnitLson, crenating all the occu-
pants of both houses. The GoodlOw
family consisted of father, mother and
six children. There were six persons
residing in the Smithson home, the
husband, wife, three children and
sister of Mrs. Smithson. No cause
could be discovered for the fire and it
is believed to have been Of accidental
origin. The pine trees surrounding the
house caught fire from the flames
and added to the destruction. They
also prevented any assistance from
reaching the persons in the house. At
ter the bodies were found in the
houses and rooms where the different
members Of the family were accus-
toned to sleep it gave the impression
that death had come while the people
were sleeping. The families formed
part of a colony of emigrants who had
settled in this region. These two
families had come from Iowa, Good
low having been in the neighborhood
for some three years, while Smithson
had only recently reached the locality.
Goodlow was highly esteemed by the
settlers. The fatalities cause feeling
of gloom to overspread the colony. The
bodies were inferred in the little grave
yard of the settlement, one of the colo
nists acting as minister.

Commercial Agent w. P. Atwell
writes to the Department of State from
Roubaix as follows: Russia is about
to become large producer Of raw cot
ton. The Trans-Caucasian country
has cotton lands. in the valley of
Koura, near Elisabethpol, in the high
plain of Erivan, as well as in other
localities. and judicious irrigation will
extend these fields. Russian Turkestan
is, however, destined to become the
greatest cotton-producing section, and
will shortly be rival Of Egypt. In
1890 Russian Turkestan had 10000 hec-
tares (14S,260 acres) planted with up
land cotton. This land yielded 1885,
900 Kilograms (32,804,44s pounds) of
cotton. In 1895 the production amount
ed to 100000 Kilograms (176,368.-
600 pounds) of upland and $685., 900
Kilograms (2O,579.941 pounds) of ma
tive cotton. Russian Turkestan should
produce more than 12O,0O0,OOo ki.o-
grams 264,552,ooo pounds) of textile
growth. Russia" says the authority
quoted, "can already do without Egypt,
India and the United States"

It is in Germany of all European
countries that trusts have spread most
extensively and have been most sue
cessful, writes Wilhelm Berdrow. Who
ever may have expected to find Eng
land in this leading position should be
reminded that the German states, in
respect to the tremendous increase OF
industry and the extraordinary growth
o. their great cities, bear the most
striking resemblance to the United
States and furnish the most fruitful
soil for the growth Of industrial COM
bfnations. The German technical
journals for 1897 enumerate about 1870
trusts, of which, it is true, only few
would correspond to American ideas
but all Of which demonstrate capacity
for wider combination and fuller de-
yelopment.
