COTTON FAMINE IN ENGLAND.


New York, Sept. 5.-The Herald
London cable says:
"America is the sheet anchor OF
England's cotton industry" saiG
Mr.. James Lowry Whittle, manag.
ing director of Horrockses, Crewd.
son & Co. Limited, one Of the great
cotton spinning houses of Great
Britain, in an interview to-day re-
lative to the crisis in the British
cotton trade.
The prospective delay and short
age of the new American crop has
brought the cotton manufacturers
of the kingdom face to face with
what are pronounced the most seri-
ous conditions which they have had
to weather since the exports of cot
ton from the United States were
stopped during the civil war. A
meeting of the master spinners will
be held in Manchester on Friday
next to consider an indefinite shut
down of the mills.
The total supply of American
cotton on the docks and in the
warehouses of Liverpool does not
exceed 100000 bales, only half of
which is said to be usable. The
scantiness of this stock may be
judged from the fact that the aver
age weekly consumption of the
Lancashire mills is $4,000 bales.
Commenting on the situation, Mr..
Whittle said:
eff anything were needed to
demonstrate our complete depend
ence on American cotton, present
conditions would supply it. We
are as absolutely helpless as loco
motive without coal, and what is
primarily responsible for the fact is
that the Southern planters in the
United States sowed a crop whose
yield will not be more than $780,
900 bales, while the world demands
an annual American crop Of not
less than 100000 bales. It is a
mystery to us what Influenced your
planters thus to fail in providing
what YVES expected of them. 1t may
have been that they found that the
land hitherto planted with cotton
could bedevoted to some profitable
purpose, but whatever inspired
them, they will be guilty of costly
shortsightedness if they continue
to permit their exports to England
to be so persistently low as to force
prices arbitrarily high.
"While we freely admit that we
prefer the staple American cotton
to any other available, we shall be
compelled to find new source Of
supply as soon as the American
article becomes a luxury. India's
cotton resources would offer an in
viting field for development if con-
ditions force us to turn from Amer
lea. Twelve cents pound is about
the limit to which America can Of
ford to boost its export cotton"
Mr.. Whittle adds that Great
Britain consumes annually more
than 1900, 900 bales of raw cotton,
about two.thirds of which comes
from the Southern States of Amer
lea. Mr.. Whittle estimates that
the contemplated shutdown of the
Lancashire mills will throw into
idleness 100000 operatives, and
will entail a cash loss to the manu-
facturers of $4,000 every week
that their looms are idle.

STEPS TO PREVENT REPUBLICAN
FRAUD.


watching Mark Hanna's financial
plays very closely with the inten-
ton to prevent the wholesale fraud
in the presidential election which
they have every reason to believe
the Republican party contemplates
especially in those State which are
regarded as doubtful and there are
quite Il number of them this year.
The election of Mckinley in 1896
was largely due to the use of an
immense corruption fund and the
fact that Hanna is again exacting
large contributions from the trusts
and other protected interests it is
evident that he intends to repeat
if he can, his attacks Of four years
ago when majority of the electoral
! vote was secured for Mckinley not
so much by corrupting the indivi-
dual voters as by bribing election
officers in many States to manipu-
late the count of the votes.
1t is reasonable to assume that
this was the way Hanna expended
his corruption fund which amounted
to many millions of dollars. 1t was
not safe thing to bribe the voters
at so much per head, because under
the secrecy which surrounds the
Australian voting system there can
be no guarantee that a man will
cast his ballot the way he was paid
to vote, consequently the most ef-
fective manner of employing cor
ruption as means of influencing
the presidential contest was to deal
with the election judges and other
officers who had charge of the count
after the polls were closed.
In the election of 1900, however,
everything possible will be done by
the Democratic managers to prevent
fraud and insure an absolutely fair
cast and honest count Of the vote.
Senator Hanna, who is regarded as
the Warwick of McKinley's admin
istration, never fails in his speeches
and other public utterances to warn
his lieutenants that they ''must not
miss a trick" 1t is on tricks and
fraud that he relies to re-elect Nc
Kinley, but it is quite probable the
Democrats before the campaign is
over will detect and checkmate
many of his tricks. In this con-
nection it is we'll to say that ex-
GOV. John P. Altgeld is urging the
Democratic National Committee to
organize vigilance cOmmlJJee IN
every voting precinct in the coun-
try to watch the count of the ballots
next November. He charges that
millions of dollars are being taken
by Republican managers from the
trusts to carry the election by fraud.
After the election in 1896 Gov
ernor Altgeld charged that the Re-
publicans had stuffed the registra
tion rolls and had counted $4,000
illegal votes in Cook County alone.
He repeats this charge with many
additions. Fraudulent votes, he
says, deprived Mr.. Bryan in 1896
of the electoral votes Of Illinois,
Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky. With
an honest vote he says, the Repub
licans will not be able to carry eight
States.

LACK OF GOOD ROADS.
Our Miserable Country Highways
Are u National Disgrace.

The chief obstacle to the general use
of the automobile In this country Is the
disgraceful lack of good roads, says
the New York World. Such an event
as the Paris Bordeaux automobile race
in France or the English excursion
from London to Edinburgh and return
would be impossible In this country
simply because we have not got 500
continuous miles of road lit for the au
tomobile or for any other vehicle.
But the movement in favor of good
roads which gained such REINFORCE
ment from the bicycle is being strength
ened by the introduction of the auto
mobile. A project has been started
among a colony of wealthy summer
residents Of New Hampshire to i'm
prove a tourists roadway of 500 miles
from Boston to Dublin, y. H.. thence
up the Connecticut valley, through the
White mountains, down to the Maine
coast and back to Boston.
The disastrous failure of recent at.
tempt to travel by automobile from
the disgraceful condition of the ordi-
nary roads in the Empire State. If
the New England project results in
giving us 800 continuous miles of good
road, 1t will be a valuable and much
needed object lesson.

lunge the screws came out Of the wa

it occurred to me that this was impos-

so my discovery was that in sea
sickness, particularly when you are in

the ship really pitches upward when
you think it pitches downward. This
confusion may assist in muddling the
