Missouri, Arkansas and the Indian Ter
ritory will be held in Pittusburg on next
Monday, July IS, to determine what ac-
ton the miners will take towards en-

Exposition, pays this high compliment
to Mr. T. X. Bruner, who arranged the
exhibit:
ITO Northern eyes, the man in large
of the North Carolina exhibit is nothing
short of wonderful. He oonvinces you
that his State is an empire embracing
all climates and all products, as well
as George Vanderbilt's Biltmore estate.
If he told you in his soft Southern &C
cent and his judjcially measured Eng
lish that North Carolina could grow
blocks OF ice cream on banana trees you
would believe him..

sequently our market opened 3 to d
points higher, but subsequently declined
10 to II points from the top on the lib
eral New Orleans, Houston and Gal
weston estimates for tomorrow, and east
ness of spots, closing at a net loss of s
to 9 points on the daY. The port and
interior receipts continue on a freer
scale than anticipated, and the urgent
demand for spots seems to have subsid-
ed. There are also indications of cut
sidcrs refusing TO follow the advance
for the present which may probably be
accounted for by the high prices prov
alent and the favorable prospects for
the next crop. Unless there is a revival
in the inquiry of spots, values might
sag further, providing receipts do not
soon decrease considerably.

Southern Yarn Men In Charlotte In
Great Numbers Today.
1t is expected that about 300 Southern
yarn spinners will be in Charlotte to-
day to consider the plans proposed by
Mr.. F. L. Underwood. of New York, who
proposes to merge all the cotton mills of
the South into one vast $60000,0 900 COM
bination incorporated under New Jersey
laws.
His proposition is to pay the mill
owners price not in excess of 220 per
cent of the cost Of replacing each plant.
this to be half and half in preferred and
common stock, cash to be paid for all
stocks of cotton, cotton now in process
of manufacture and goods on hand.
When 60 per cent of the mill owners
agree to the plan it is to go into effect
after the contracts are agreed upon.
DR.. j. H. McAden, of Charlotte, is re-
ported as saying that the mill owners
will consider seriously #the proposition,
which he thinks is plausible. AS the
mills are reported to have lost money
since December 1st. 1901 and as cotton
is advancing, with a gloomy prospect
for the yarn mills, if Mr.. Underwood s
plan offers relief it will be accepted
DR.. McAden is quoted as saying IF
the merger is effected all the Southern
yarn mills will lose their identity; their
entire combination being managed by a
board of directors, two-thirds of whom
will be Southern mill men. The head
office will be in New York city"
