THE COTTON GROWERS
OPENING SESSION OF MEETING AT
 AsHEvILLE.
StrOnE Feeling Among Delegates That Minimum Price Farmers VIII
 Ask fer Coming Crop
 fs Eleven Cents.

Asheville. N. C., Sept. 6.--The South
 ern Cotton Growers Convention con-
 yened here today. The opening session
 was devoted to the appointment or
 committees, among them one to fix the
 minimum prices at which the farmer
 should sell his cotton this year. The
 committee will submit its report to- morrow
 A committee was also appointed to compile an estimate of last years cot ton crop. This committee consists of J. A. Brown of North Carolina, J. C.. Martin of Mississippi and W. D. Peak of Georgia. An auxiliary committee which will report statistics to the estt- mating committee will also be appoint
 ed and will consist of one delegate
 from each of the fourteen cotton grow
 ing States.
 It was the sense of the meeting to-
 day that this crop report and the de- termining of the minimum price are the principal subjects before the conven-
 ton. A suggestion made by J. C. Mar tin that the constitution be revised so as to admit of the enlargement of the
 association's scope resulted in the ap- pointment of the following committee to frame resolutions: J. D. Smith of South Carolina, J. l.. Hickey of Texas and s. Witherspoon of Mississippi. Contrary to expectations tonights
 session was productive of no tmpor- 1 tant action. the entire evening being devoted to the discussion of various
 resolutions under consideration. The
 meeting considered the resolutions
 passed by the master cotton spinners of Great Britain June 5, at the inter national congress of master cotton spinners. These resolutions deal with the dampening of cotton and unsatis- factory methods of baling. They were &a ko 1r. tfons
 A letter was read from Sir William TomIinson, a member of the British parliament. in which he stated that the | United States has reached its limit in cotton production and would soon need all that 1t produced. Sir William also said the present supply was 3.000,000 short of the demand and the deficien- cy was growing at the rate of 00,000.- 900 a year. He favored the creation of a commission to take steps to in- crease the production. No definite &C., tion was taken in connection with the Tomlinson letter, the sentiment of the convention seeming to be against the recommendation.
 After a lengthy discussion resolutions were adopted fixing the uniform "tare" of bales, "bagging and ties" at thirty pounds per bale. this ruling to apply to l all states.
 The establishment of a newspaper or
 an oficial organ for the Cotton Asso-
 ciation, a question which was carried over from the Memphis meeting, came up for discussion. Owing to the ab-
 sence of the three members of the com- mittee having the matter in charge no report was presented. The convention adjourned until 10 a. m.
 There is strong feeling tonight among the delegates attending the Sou thern Cotton Growers Convention that the minimum price for the coming cot ton crop will be near Il cents with | possibility of twelve.

Moscow, Sept. 5.--The executive com mittee of tho Zemstvos douma congress adopted a resolution today not to boy colt the national assembly but on the contrary to take an active part in the elections. The resolution favors com mon action between the ZemstvoS ana urban authorities in preparation for the elections, which indicates a probable alignment of the two elements in the electoral college. Prince Trobetskoy' marshal of the Moscow nobility, in an interview speaks highly of the national assembly project saying it is an impor- tant step In the historical evolution Of Russia and a carefully prepared com promise between the demands of the different parties. The plan, he adds, is open to improvement, but the pledge in the imperial manifesto shows the need thereof.
 Discussing the Jewish question, Prince Troubetskoy says 1t must be ap- preached with the greatest care. The removal of the restrictions on residence would be dangerous in view of the back wardness of the Russian peasantry. as the residence of Hebrews among them would menace State interests. He con cludes with rebuking the revolutionary activity of the Jews, declaring that 1t is the duty of every citizen to work for the pacification of Russia.
