As manufacturers of cotton yarns, we
profess to be in position to advise our
members, tosdecline orders which do
not conform to the scale Of prices set
forth herein Before deciding OH this
scale. we, individually interviewed the
members of the various commission
houses in this city and New York, and
were guided to some extent in formnlat-
ing our price list by the information we
gathered from this source. which, to-
gether with the present price Of cotton,
is sufficient justification for the slight
advances we have made I'M prices. Prices
of numbers of yarns not quoted, can
easily be figured lby using our scale rs a
basis for calculating. We 10 not deem
it advisable to take orders very far i'll
advance, unless figured on basis of our
scale, and present price of cotton, so that
YOU can advance price of any number of
yarn with any advance in price of cotton.
Cotton yarn market lis very strong to-
day. and we look for advances above
our scale. in the near future.

We are i'm favor of any just and legal
plan that will secure to the South fair
price for its cotton crop. 1t is rs wro ~
for manufacturers, North and South. TO
get cotton from the farmer too cheap as
it is for the commission merchants to get
the manufactured product too cheap
from the cotton spinners. Live and let

COTTON AND COTTON GOODS.

We published yesterday interviews
tom mills, one of whom asserted that
eight cent cotton would cause the cot
ton mills to lose money unless the price
of the finished product could be increas.
ed. Others held the same view st:bstan-
tally, though they admitted that mills
having special advantages could pay eight
cents a pound for cotton and earn good
dividend.
In view of the increase in the price of
everything else, the growers and manu-
facturers, of cotton feel that the price of
cotton in the raw and manufactured
state ought to so UP in proportion TO
other necessities. The short crop of cot
toll-the best estimates. being that it will
be between nine and ten million bales
ought to make cotton worth eight cents
manufacturers pay more for cotton they
ought to get more for the products of
their mills. The farmers OF North Caro-
l;na have called meeting of cotton
growers to be held in Raleigh during
FAIR week to consider the best interests
of the industry. For several days repre-
sentatives of Southern cotton spinners
have been in conference with Northern
commission merchants in Philadelphia.
After full consultation, the cotton mill
officers agreed upon a scale of prices.
They prepared the following letter which
will be mailed to every member of the
Association
