LOOK FOR COTTON FAMINE
Liverpool Merchant Thinks
America Will Soon Consume
its Product.

London, Oct. 3O.-Sir Alfred
Jones, X, G. NJ. g., a leading
Liverpool merchant and president
of the Chamber of Commerce of
that city, foresees the dav whom
America will cease 10 supply
Lancashire with cotton and when
the United States may even have
to look to West Africa for her
own needs.
Sir Alfred, in an interview,
said:
"For three years l have been
studying this question of produc-
ing cotton. America will soon
want all the cotton she grows.
Her population Is increasing and
her consumption of cotton is in.
creasing in proportion. About
ten years ago America produced
100000 bales of cotton and
Great Britain took half of it. Now
America produces II, 900, 900 and
Britain takes no more than she
did ten years ago. This is tact
that startled me and showed me
it was absolutely necessary we
should stir ourselves and make
some effort to provide a supply
of cotton from other sources.
81 got seed from America and
sent it out to all the colonies.
Then the British Cotton Growing
Association was started, and the
results OF the Associations work
have been more satisfactory than
even | seven anticipated. The
whole of the West African col.
onies and The West Indies have
been made TO take deep interest
in the question of raising cotton"

TENEMENT HOUSE HORROR
Twenty. five Persons Perish i'm a
Fire i'm New York.

New York, Nov. 1,-Twenty.
one men, three women and a ten
months-oli babe were burned or
suftocated in fire that started
early this morning in the Hs6se
of All Nations, a five storytene-
ment house at No. 42611th ave.
The police and cozsner believe
the fire to have ben of incendi-
ary origin.
The fireAhad been burning for
some minutes before it was dis
covered. 1t had started in the
basement and rushing upward,
had attacked the stairway leading
to the apartments. In short
space of time the flames had so
enveloped the stairway that egress
from the building by it was i'm
possible. The house from the
third to the fifth floor was entirely
destroyed.
At the windows, front and rear
bodies of men and women were
jammed, showing that a desper.
ate struggle to get free had result.
ed in the complete choking cf
these exits to the fire escapes and
had been the cause of aznumber
Of the inmates being sulfocated.
Lying on a bed alongside win
dow at the rear of the fourth
floor a fireman found the
bodies of five men. Each had
clutched the one next to him in
an endeavor to push him away in
order to get to the fire escape
outside. The features of the men
were distorted, some with rage
others with agony and in two in
stances the men had ,gripped each
other so hard that blood had been
drawn and had ran over their
hands.
On the third floor were found the
bodies of Maculeta Vingiguerro
and her baby. The mother had
crawled TO the front window and
had succeeded in gresping the
sill when she was suffocated. In
her arms lay the body of her
child.
On the third floor in an apart
ent, where a Halloween rarty was
being held, John O'Toole, one of
the occupants, started to go to
the street. He was met by a
volume of smoke as he opened
the door. He ran to the fire
escape, followed by all those in
the flat, with the exception of his
mother, whose charred body was
found lying at the entrance to the
apartment. O'Toole and the
others ESCAPED.
