MlIIUAL INSURANCE
FOR COTTON NELL MEN
THEY ARE GOING TO ORGANIZE
AN INSURANCE COMPANY
OF THEIR OWN.

The following is from the Columbus
Enquirer Sun Of Thursday and will be
Of general interest in all sections of the
state
Mr. g. Gunby Jordan, president of
the Eagle aud Phenix Mills, returned
yesterday morning from Lithia Springs
Ga where he attended the opening
session Of the association of Georgia
mill men Superintendent Rankin. of
the Eagle and PheniX plant is still in
attendanceupon the meeting There i
a large attendance of cotton goods manu-
fact0rers from all over the state.
One of the most important steps taken
by the meeting was the agreement to
charter a manufacturers mutual in.
suancc company, in which all proteet-
ed hazards win be insured. Such a
mutual insurance company has existed
among the New England manufacturers
for many years, and has proven very
advantageous. II has gwen insurance
at very low rates for very frequently
eighty and ninety per cent. of the pre-
miums are paid ack to the members
in the shape of dividends. The theor
is to give protection at actual cost.
The cotton mills Of North Carolina
already have such mutual insurance
company, and one is now being formed
il South Carolina Rece ntly one of
these New England companies has aus-
tanned very ny losses, due to the ac-
coptance Of risks On chair factories and
other manufacturing establishments in
the west 1t is their idea to have
southern mutual insurance company,
which will insure only cotton mills and
the best risks at that, Mill men who
JOIN must agree pay ~ times their
regular premium On any OCCASION
should the emergency arise. The class
Of risks is SO good that the southecn
manufacturers believe they can do their
own insurance at very low rate,

BAY SURE TO BE THE
"WHOLESALE STREET"
A PLAN TO MAKE 1T WIDER SUG-
GESTED AND 1T WILL PROBA-
BLY, MEET WITH APPROVAL.

It now looks like the plan sugges-
ted by r. E. Briesenick, as to turning
over Bay street to the wholesale mer-
chants, will be carried out.
Mr.. Briesenick suggested this years
ago and the idea found favor with
some while others laughed at it, but
the fact that everybody nearly is
in favor of it now is quite a compli-
ment to Mr., Briesenicks judgment
The News thinks that it will be only
a short time before Oglethorpe will
be one of Brunswicks busiest streets
and instead of being the "back street
it will be just the reverse.
AS nearly every property owner on
Bay owns from street to street they
could extend their bul4ylngs tnrough
to Oglethorpe.
Mr. Briesenick now comes forward
with another good proposition. He
thinks Oglethorpe street should be
wider and offers to allow several feet
! of his lots for that purpose, provided
| other property owners will do like
wise. xllAG

The fact that the summer season is

for one man to do all the work
Te sanitary laws will be strictly en-
forced, and when the new inspector
is named, inspections will occur at
shorter intervals.

by the armies of the north and south
The men who composed these armies,
he said, possessed the requirements of
which good citizens are made. He re-
ferred to the inscription on the monu-
ment raised by Kentucky to the union
and confederate soldiers from that
state who fell on the battlefield. He
read the inscription as follows:
s.As we are united in life and they
united in death, let one monument per-
petuates their deeds and people, forget
full of that terrible conflict which made
all men free and retained every star on
the nations flag"
That is a good sentiment: that is a
sentiment by which we can all stand.
And, oh, my friends, that sentiment
has its underlying spirit, a spirit of
brotherhood. I firmly believe in my
countrymen and therefore, 1 believe
that the chief thing necessary in order
that they should work together, is that
they should know one another; that the
men north should know the southerner:
that the men of one occupation should
know the men of another occupation;
SO we may all realize that the thing that
gives us superficial knowledge is un-
important. and that we are and ever
must be knit together in an indissolu-
BILE mass by common American man
hood.

o'clock over the Southern railway for

NONE OF OUR BUSINESS
No Cause to Meddle in German
Haytien Affair.

Washington, Sept. S.-As was expect
ed Mr.. Powell, the United States minis
ter to Hayti. reported promptly to the
state department the sinking of the
Haytfen gunboat Crete-a-Pierrot by the
German gunboat Panther. Both of the
minister's dispatches are dated yester-
day, at Port au Prince. In the first dis
patch the minister said it was reported
that the Panther had called upon Kill
ick to surrender: that he had refused
and that the Panther had sunk the
Crete-a-Pierrot and all the crew had
been lost. The second and later dis
patch corrected the statement as to the
crew, saying that the1 had escaped.
The minister promised to make an ex-
tended report by mail.
The navy deoartment was also in
formed of the event in the following
dispatch received from Commander
cinnat:
Port au Prince. Sept s.-Secretary
of the Navy, Washington: German n
gunboat Panther sunk Crete-a-Pierrot
at Gonaives. Grew escaped. The Panth-
er returned to Port au Prince
..MLEAN."
AS matters stand, there is nothing to
be done by the state department at this
juncture. The officials have not changed
their view that the incident was one
between the German and Haytien gov
ernments and that it was not our busi-
ness. The Berlin advices to the effect
tnal the mayhem government had eX-
pressed its satisfaction with the situa-
ton being brought to the attention of
the department here, went to confirm
officials in their position No American
interests have been affected unfavor-
ably in their judgment, and as the
United States has not recognized the
! revolutionists in Hayu there is no one
to make complaint to this government.
On the whole. it is felt that the ter
! mination of Killick's career in summary
| fashion may have a salutary effect, not
! only in Hayti but also in South and
Central American countries where here
| tofore the slightest revolutionary dis
| turbance has been made the pretext of
! offensive interference with foreign mer-
| chant vessels. Only recently the British
cruiser Phaeton was obliged to force the
| Colombian government to release the
| British steamer Ecuador which it was
! intended to impress into service as a
! troop transport; while still more re-
| Gently Commander McCrea adopted q
similarly vigorous course with respect
| to this same Admiral Killick and it is
| not doubted that had he remained in
| Haytien waters he would have seized
I the -Pierrot for viola ton of his
| warning to let foreign shipping alone
| Altogether these active naval measures
=; are expected to have beneficial results
| throughout that section of the world
| so far as foreign commerce is concerned

MOVE ON MOROS,
Gen. Sumner Is Ordered to At.
tack Mindana0 Insurgents.

Manila, Sept. S.-General Chaffee has
ordered General Sumner, commanding
the department of Mindanao, to lead a
column against the Macin Moros. In
his order General Chaffee suggests that
eight companies of infantry, two troops
of cavalry and one battery shall form
at Camp Wears, island of Mindanao.
1t is expected that the column will move
within week. Most of the attacks
upon the American forces have origi-
mated in the Macin country. This move
ment is to be directed against hostiles.
several of whom are enumerated in
General Chaffee's order. General Sum-
ner is directed to require the hostiles to
give a satisfactory pledge to refrain
from aggression in the future. There
are several Moro strongholds in the Ma
Gin country. It is not definitely known
where the first opposition will be en-
countered. This will depend upon Cen
eral Summers course after moving.
General Sumner is directed to protect
the friendly natives.
