sOuDAN COTTON CONDEMNED.

We have heard recently a good deal
of Englands project to produce vast
quantities of cotton in the Soudan, and
thus relieve her cotton manufacturers
from dependence upon American cot
ton. Last week there was a meeting
in the Chamber of Commerce of Paris
of the representatives of a syndicate
of cotton manufacturers of Roubaix
and Lille. for the purpose of consld-
ering the question of joining English
and Belgian manufacturers in scheme
to suppress American speculation in
cotton by experimenting in the Guilt
walton of cotton in new fields. The
European manufacturers of cotton
goods contend that American specula-
tors in cotton ruin their industry by
making the price of cotton uncertain.
The chief speaker at the Chamber of
Commerce meeting was CASTOR Sim
cite. one of the most prominent of the
cotton manufacturers of France. In
the course of his remarks he said that
Soudan cotton was unfit for manufac-
turing purposes, and that 1t could new
er come into competition with American
cotton. According to a cablegram in
the New York World. he said that no
where else in the world could cotton
be grown equal to that grown in the
United States, and that the European
manufacturers would have to put up
with American speculation in cotton,
no matter how reckless it might be.
He pointed out that millionaire manu-
facturers had spent large sums in times
past trying to grow cotton in various
parts of the world in competition with
American cotton. and had failed, and
that therefore it was folly for this new
organization, with it's limited resources,
to embark in the undertaking.
CASTOR Sinette takes the position in
regard to the cultivation of cotton that
has been occupied for a long time by
Edward Atkinson of Boston. In an
article published quite recently, he said
the cotton farmers of the Southern
states were in no danger of competition
in the growing of cotton.
If the present season proves to be a
AoNOlable OhS AOl thS CuiIiNdllOn III
cotton the European spinners will have
no occasion to complain of the supply
of cotton, and perhaps the price will
come nearer being acceptable to them
than it has been during the past few
months. The cotton acreage this sea-
son is much larger than 1t was last
and there is talk of a. crop of 12.0O0,-
900 bales. If this talk should prove
to be well founded the price would
hardly be above 10 cents a pound.

An Attorneys Assurance.

Representative Henry. of Texas, dis
GUESSING the Cockran-Dalzell incident in

Fannin Smith, of Texas, was accustom-
ed to bnllyrag the judges before whom
he practiced, says the New York
World.
Does counsel think this Court is
a fool?" asked the Judge of Smith
after particularly boastful statement
had been made by counsel.
II should not like to answer Your
Honor's question, and would be glad
to be excused" Smith answered, "as
might subject myself to contempt
of court"
You are fined SO for contempt"
the judge answered.
With great display of bills Smith
paid the fine to the clerk, at the same
time muttering: Anyhow, it is $40
more than the Court can show"
you are fined $50 additional for
contempt" the court ordered, and as
Smith did not have this amount he
was to raise it before the next day or
go to jail.
Your Honor" he finally said. ''in
view of all the circumstances. 1 am
convinced Your Honor was Joking
about that $50 fine, and I move that it
be RENTED"
Smiths assurance was so great that
the judge RENTED the $50 fine.

B. P. Waggener wanted to prove
that there was full moon at the

place the responsibility on the plain
tiff. He sent a boy downtown to a

declaring that there was nothing in
the evidence to warrant the state

THE JAPANESE ADVANCE.

The Japanese have succeeded in
crossing the Yalu river and now have
large force in Manchuria.s From
the accounts thus far received the
crossing was attended by some severe
fighting, but. as yet, there has been
no general battle.
1t is evident that the Russians are
not we'll prepared to resist the adj
vance of the Japanese, and it is stat
ed in the dispatches that they hardly
expected to be able to prevent
them from crossing the Yalu.
What the plans of the contending
forces are does not appear from any
thing which has been, as yet, made
public. No doubt it is the pur-
pose of the Japanese to do all the in
jury to the Russians they can in
pursuance of their purpose to drive
them out of Manchuria. They are in
a position now to reach the railroad
leading to Port Arthur. If they reach
it, and hold it, they will command
Port Arthur, and practically the whole
of the Liaotung peninsula. The Rus

can't prevent the Japanese from TAX
ing possession of the Port Arthur
railroad they may consider 1t advis-
able to abandon Port Arthur.
OF course, with control of the PENN
sula of Liaotung the Japanese will be
far from accomplishing their purpose
OF forcing the Russians out of Man
churia. but they will be in a good posi-
tion for accomplishing It.
1t is stated that the Russian gem
eral, Kuropatkin, is well satisfied with
the situation, and that he is conduct
ing waiting campaign-that is, he is
doing what he can to retard the ad-
vance of the japanese until he has
sufficient force at his command to

A NOVEL EXHIBIT.

One of the most remarkable exhibits
which will be seen at the St. Louis
exposition is collection of that sspe-
cies of mosquitoes which are supposed
to carry germs of yellow fever. The
collection is in charge of DR.. Fred
erico Torralbas, a member of the
Board of Health of Havana. DR.. Tor
ralbas was at one time a surgeon of
the Marine Hospital Service, and he
took part in the series of experiments
that were made in Havana two or
three years ago for the purpose of
discovering whether or not the germ
of yellow fever was carried by the
mosquito, and, If so. what species of
the insect conveys it.
In the collection that is at the ex-
position there is none that has been
lnnoculated with yellow fever. There
fore if they should escape they
wouldn't be a source of danger. They
are in cage, and are fed on sugar
and water They live three or four
days, long enough to deposit larvae,
from which comes a new crop. Thus
the insects go on increasing, and DIR.
Torralbas says that by the first of
June he will have in his cage between
800 and 1000 mosquitoes.
OF course the mosquitoes, unaccom-
panied by experiments, wouldn't be of
much interest, but it is the purpose to
have demonstrations, showing exactly
how yellow fever is spread by them.
There, will be no yellow fever patients,
but subjects win be brought in con-
tact with the insects and there will
be practical demonstrations which, it
is expected will help to educate the
public in regard to the subject.
II is doubtful If the mosquito theory
is as yet fully accepted. 1t is worthy
of notice that the Texas authorities
are not depending upon killing mosqui-
toes that may escape from Mexico
to keep the yellow fever out of that
state next summer. They are depend
ing upon the old-fashioned quarantine.
They have made a regulation that per-
sons coming from the yellow fever dis
trict of Mexico shall be quarantined
certain number of days at the bor-
der before entering Texas.
If the Mexican authorities can get
the Texas authorities to accept the
mosquito theory the quarantine may
be raised, and a war on mosquitoes
begun. At present, here in the South,
more dependence Is placed upon quar-
antine than upon freedom from mos
quitoes for protection against yellow
fever,
