IMPORTANT COTTON DEAL.
Northern Capitalists Propose to Pur
chase Twenty Cotton Presses.

New Orleans. July 24-The States has
the following;
A deal has been practically completed
here for the purchase Of the twenty cot
ton presses of New Orleans by wealthy
eastern capitalists. One million dollars
has been deposited in New York IN con-
neotion with the deal, and millions are
involved in what is considered one Of the
most Important financial transactions
that has ever occurred In the south
According to the terms 40 per cent is
to be paid in cash, based on the esti-
mated value of the property and 60 per
cent In preferred stocA upon which divi-
dends of per cent are to be guaranteed.
The only hitch in the deal is In the
matter of the presses owned by the
Heine interests of Paris. The Heines
are willing to surrender their holdings,
but have notified the syndicate that they
desire to sell outright for cash. 1t is UNI
derstood that the manager of the deal
in this city has secured options upon
every press upon .-,e terms mentioned.
The negotiations have been carried on
very quietly and the names of the capt.
talists who are financing the enterprise
in the east are withheld. What the in
tentions of the syndicate are with respect
to the property have not been learned,
but 1t is suggested that the deal NAV
have some connection with the struggle
between the square bale and the round
bale interests in the south.
