Plans to Hold 100000
Bales.

New Orleans, Nov. 15.-Follow-
ing the arrival of President Harvie
Jordan, the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation today perfected plans for
taking off the market 100000
bales of cotton by means of series
of pledges which the farmers will
sign themselves, stating their name
and address and the amount of
cotton they will thus hold. The
cotton held will not be sold for less
than 10 cents a pound according to
the pledges. A representative of
the association is to be sent into
every one tf the Sl7 cotton produc-
ing counties of the cotton belt at
once. When the pledges are signed
they will be sent to the central office
of the association in Atlanta.
President Jordan says that half of
the crop has already been sold at an
average of 10 cents and the spin
ners must have all the remainder.
He believes that 15 cents for the
remainder is fair price and it will
only average the spinners ~ 1-2
cents while they have based all their
calculationss0n II cents cotton.

a Statement of Facts.

| On the night of November 5th,
at about IL O'Clock, the undersigned
left police headquarters on their
regular round, or beat, going, pur-
suant to their instructions, down
Main street to railroad crossing and
returning to police headquarters by
way of Sharp's alley.
AS we approached the fire house
building, and when within a short
distance Of said building we dis
covered q small smoke coming from
the top of said building, and sound
cd loud alarm with the view of
awaking possible inmates of the
house, but resolved no response and
we Immediately fastened rapidly to
the building and attempted to open
the back door, but being without
necessary implements, were unable
to do so. We at once ran to the
front OF the building, but found
both doors securely fastened, but
succeeded in forcing open a small
door that leads to the second story.
Knowing that one John Turner,
colored, was usually in charge of
the property in the night time we
made desperate effort to arouse
him, which we only succeeded in
doing after having broken open the
door. We then rushed to police
headquarters with all possible dis
patch and gave the fire alarm.
After this we rushed back to the
fire mouse and with the assistance
of John Turner succeeded in rcscu
ing the fire horses. We made every
possible attempt to save the fire
wagon, but without avail, and then
rushed to the stable and exhausted
our efforts in an attempt to save
the city mules. After tremendous
bombarding the front door, which
was also securely fastened, we sue
ceeded in forcing the main door
open, rushed in to the open stalls,
but the flames were so intensely hot
and the smoke SO dense that we
were powcrless to accomplish our
object.
After cxerting our utmost efforts
to save what property we could and
although giving an outcry for help,
and finding it impossible to get as
sistance, we rushed to the Union
cotton mills where, with the aid of
a few parties, we succeeded in get
ting the necessary hose to extinguish
the fire which at the moment was
threatening the town.
This statement is given to the
public solely with the view that it
should be in possession of the actual
facts as they occurred and not car
ried away by untrue and unwar-
ranted newspaper articles emanat-
ing from one who perhaps was
asleep at the time of the fire.
