American market tor manufactured cot ton Is. worth fully 20 per cent of the market of the world for the same class of goods. This we retain Other coun- tries buy our raw cotton, manufacture it, and. because of their cheaper labor. are able to secure 95 per cent of the export trade in manufactured cotton. Cotton mills have increased In this country in the last few years marvelously but they have only kept pace with the consump- tive capacity of our own people.
 If We shall ever increase our trade with the countries lying to the south of us or with those washed by the Pacific Ocean the Gulf States will be benefited thereby certainly as much as any portion of our common country If steamship communication with those countries shall ever be established shipyards are as likely to be built on the Gulf as on the Atlantic coast and thei- supply and coal ing stations are more likely to be here than elsewhere. If additional cotton fac tories are built they are likely to be erect ed where fuel, lumber iron and labor are abundant and where the raw mate rial Is produced at their very doors"

FOR OUTDOOR SPORT
ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION oRGA-
 NEED LAST NIGHT.
It is Fostered by Montgomery Y. M. c. A. and Will Have Several Teams of Athletes
 in the Field.

An Athletic Association in connection with the physical department of the Young Men Christian Association was organized last night in the Association Building, with d large membership.
 The purpose of the Association Is to raise the cleanliness of sport in Ala bama and to put out Association base ball, football, track, basket ball and rowing teams with the financial backing of the membership.
 Will +, Fry. Physical Director of the Association, presided at the meeting. He sad that he had been approached by prominent business men of Montgomery in reference to. the organization of such club, and had received assurance of the financial and moral support of the business community if such club was organized on proper basis.
 Mir. Fry said that he had conferred with Leslie l.. Gilbert Secretary of the Commercial and Industrial Association, in reference to this step and had been assured by him that if the organization was so perfected that athletic meets of different kinds were held in Montgomery or participated in by Montgomery teams, he would undoubtedly have the support of the business community.
 In reference to the rowing feature, MT. Fry said the Alabama River was as per- feet a waterway for such sport as he had seen. ProHers of help MT. Fry said, have already been rendered him, If the club would erect boat house, MT. Fry closed his remarks by urging those pres ent to permanently organize the club.
 On motion MT. Fry's suggestion was adopted. The following permanent otti cers were elected President Y. C. locke; Nice-President, w. w. Graves; Secretary, II. c. Crenshaw; Treasurer, w. w. Brame.
 A meeting of the Association will be held Saturday night.

ESKIMO CUSTOMS.
Sleep Naked During Winter and Eat
 Raw Meat.

1NdW meat
 The arrival in the world of the youthful Eskimo Is not greeted by the orthodox cradle and swaddling clothes. Practical ly until he can shift for himself he lives absolutely naked inside his mothers seal skin blouse, skin nto skin keeping him warm. This arrangement allows the mother to go about her work almost i'm mediately, and she can also travel and hunt without a perambulator, and with out having to leave any one at home to nina the baby. The mothers dress is almost exactly like the fathers, except that 1t has long sort of tail reaching nearly to the ground, embryo, no doubt, of the modern train" says Leslie s Weekly.
 Spared the miseries of soap and water. md early weaned to the readily swallow ed diet of blubber and raw seal meat, the infant rapidly develops that invaluable layer of subcutaneous fat, which, while 1t enhances the jolly appearance of the lads and the shapeliness Of the maidens, assists materially In economy of clothing. Thus in their frigid cline, once in their skin tent, the whole family will divest themselves of every stitch of clothing, unembarrassed by the fact that so many families share the tent with them. So- ciabiiity is early developed when one next door neighbor on each side is only separated hS an imaginary line between the deerskin you sleep on and the one he does. The winter deerskin serves as bed and bedding at night and as parlor fur niture in the day. Community Of goods Is almost imperative under this arrange ment. Thus, when one kills seal all are fed, and likewise. when he doesnt {, all go hungry together.

CALLS CUBAN SENATOR.
Palma Summons it to Nee
 March 24.


 Havana, March 21.-President Palma tonight issued a call for an extraordinary session of the Senate March 24. for the purpose of ratifying the reciprocity treaty as amended by the United States Senate.
 The reply of Minister Quesada to Presi- dent Palmas cablegram last night in- quiring If President Roosevelt was au- thorized to join with President Palma in decreeing an extension of time for the ratification of the treaty, was that Pres idsnt Roosevelt was not authorized to extend the time. and that the only way to save the treaty vas to secure its ratt- fication by he Cuban Senae before March 31.
 The call made by President Palma to- night accordingly was issued after q conference between President Palma and the Vice-President and the Secretary of State. It is believed that lack of time will prevent the document being returned to Washington for the final signature, and that President Roosevelt can dele- gate United States Ministers Squiers to attend the final exchange of sigma lures. It Is held here that 1t Is unnecessary thaL the United States House of Represepa- tives pass upon he treaty prior to its ratification by the Cuban Senate.

ACCIDENT TO TRAIN
QUEER EXPLOSION ON A FLY-
 ING TRAIN.
Henderson Wallace, Engineer and His Fireman John Hunter. Negro Were Injured
 Near Atmore.

Louisville and Nashville passenger train No ?, due from the South at 6:15 a. m., was a couple of hours late yesterday morning. the cause of the delay being an acciden that may result in the loss of at least one human life.
 This train was coming up from Mobile with double header yesterday morning. Engineer Henderson Wallace was in charge of the front engine and Engineer John Coins with engine 253 was behind him. Just before reaching Atmore there was an explosion of some kind on engine 123, Engineer Wallace being badly hurt and scalded by shattered glass, steam and hot water. John Hunter. the negro fireman, was hurled from the gangway of the cab to the ground while the train was running about forty miles an hour. -
 Engineer Coins was slightly cut in tha face and hands by fragments of coal blown from the tank of the front engine through his cab window. He probably owes his life to the propptness with which he stretched himself fiat along the running board
 Engineer Wallace with engine 12S had command of the train. but as soon as possible after the accident. Engineer Co., ins with his engine began working air and stopped the train. the 123 of coursa being put out of working order.
 When the train was stopped engine 123 was left on the siding at Atmore while Engineer Coins with engine 253 brought No. to Montgomery getting here at S:l5 o'clock.
 Engineer Wallace returned to Mobile on southbound train No. which leaves Montgomery at 9:35 p. m.
 His many friends here will be glad to learn that his injuries are not serious.
 Hunter. the negro fireman was so bad- Iy hurt that it is a question whether h0 will live or not.
 The peculiar feature of the accident iR that neither of the two engines or any of the cars in the train left the track The Pullman car passengers knew nothing about 1t until they reached Montgomery,

SHAW SOUNDSWARNING
PROSPERITY TOO GOOD TO LAST
 HE THINKS.
The United States Must Find New Markets for Its Surplus Pro- ducts-Speaks in New
 Orleans.

New Orleans, March 21.-Secretary of the Treasury Shaw was the principal guest at the first annual banquet of the Board of Trade tonight. The banquet was held in the rooms of the Exchange, which was brilliantly decorated and il- luminated for the occasion. Charles Oanvier presided. Mayor Capdevielle. s. Locke Breaux, J. W. Porch and Pres ldent E. A. Alderman of Tulane re- Gponded to toasts.
 Governor Heard. telegraphing his in- ability to be present, said the river situa- ton made it necessary for him to remain It the capital to give immediate atten- lion to the frequent communications hom the territory affected.
 The guest of the evening was given an enthusiastic reception when he rose to speak.
 Non-Partisan Politics.
 Secretary Shaw spoke on Matters of Vital importance to the country" He discussed at some length the results of non-partisan politics. referring to what it had accomplished in the extension of transportation lines, the development of the mail service, the improvement of rivers and harbors, the expansion of com merce and finally in the determination or the American Government to construct the Isthmian canal. Concnuing he said: Now am going to venture the sugges- tion that there is one more opportunity for non-partisan American statesmanship that would be of great advantage, not only to New Orleans. but to the Gulf States generally.
 Tn forty years the foreign commerce of the United States has increased four hundred per cent, but foreign commerce In American bottoms has decreased 65 per cent In other wods. we now have four times as many tons of freight to carry across the sea as we had forty years ago. but we actually carry in American bottoms only one-third as many tons as we carried forty years ago. We get about ten per cent of the commerce of South America, and we carry only ten per cent of that ten per cent in our own ships.
 Our farms produce more than the tarms of any other country in the world we mine more coal and more iron than my other people; we grow three-fourths f the cotton of the world and we manu- lecture more than all the shops and all Inc factories of any other two countries sn the map We transport all of this bom port to port along our coast. under Sur flag and in our own ships-and more Sheaply than any other country.
 A Cry for Help.
 We carry fl over our railroads. as I have said. at one-third of what 1t costs In other countries. but when we have pro- auced 1t and transported 1t to our shores, we have reached our limit and are com pelled to cry aloud for help. So We ask England and Germany and France and Italy and Spain and Japan to come and help us. and they respond most willingly but We pay them for this service two hundred millions per annum.
