COTTON RIVAL OF SOUTH
BRITISH PAYING SPECIAL ATTEN-
TION TO UPPER EGYPT.
The Association TX Striving to Rem
der the Empire Independent of
the United States.

London, August 23.-The British Cot
ton Growing Associa ton which with the
hearty cooperation of the Colonial Sec
retary Joseph Chamberlain is striving
to render the British Empire indepen-
dent of the United States so far as raw
cotton is concerned, is now paying spe-
cial attention to upper Egypt, where. {
is asserted, the association can develop
a cotton belt dwarfing that of the
Southern States of America.
Major Count Gleichen. secretary Of
the Sirdar, of the Egyptian forces, and
Major General Wingate, addressing the
association at Manchester recently said
the experiments now concluded on the
banks of the Nile show the quality of
the cotton grown there to be the equal
of any in the world.
There are available 100000 acres, of
irrigated land and the only difficulty is
the labor supply, the Dervishes having
depopulated the Soudan, but the com
pletion of the Suakim-B Berber railroad
is epected to solve the problem, besides
furnishing an outlet for the crop.

Did Not Refer to Chairman Lyon.
But to all Republicans.

Providence, r. l.. August 2S.-The
friends of Cecil \ Lyon, chairman OF
the republican state committee OF
Texas, are considerable exercised over
the recent announcement by the presi
dent that he wished to warn the re-
publicans Of the south that if they
wanted anything from him they would
have to get out and secure votes in
stead of getting delegates to republican
national conventions and looking TO-.
federal offices. Judging from dis
patch received aboard the train today )
the friends of MIR. Lyon seem to thick
that he was made the special object OF
the presidents ultimatum and was held
responsible for the political quarrel in
Texas, but this was found to be incor-
rect, the president saying that his re-
marks applied to all.

MINERS STILL CONFIDENT

Mr.. Mitchell denied that he was in
communication with Bishop Potter, but
said the miners were still open to arbi-
tration, providing it could be secured by
honorable means.
When asked if he had an engagement
to meet United States Senators Quay
and Penrose, Mr.. Mitchell replied in the
negative.
The close of the fifteenth week of the
strike shows that the operators have
made some gains in the Wyoming re-
gion. The output of coal has been larg-
er than at any time since the strike be-
gan. This is due to the fact that more
washeries have been in operation the
past week than at any previous time
since May 18th. But all the big mines
are still idle and from what can be
learned the miners show little inclina-
ton to return to work

The last of the Indian potentates, the

menced his journey homeward by
deputy on Monday. 1t is customary
for the Maharajah, before starting on
important Journeys to consult the state

are favorable. The astrologer advised
the Maharajahs departure Monday, but
as it was inconvenient to do so the Ma
harajah determined to trick the planets
and deputized his aid de camp and
some members of his suite to start and
await him at Dover.
The Maharajah has caused London
hCstesses endless confusion by having
the name of his special God printed on
his visiting cards above his own name.
Various smart women were hurt by not
receiving answers to their invitations
until it was discovered that they had
been addressed to the God instead of
the Maharajah.
