Mr.. Brown said it was The number
of bales which regulated the price of
cotton and the present price would
not advance until it was known that
the production this year was to be

THE COTTON CONGRESS.
Farmers Of the South Gather in New
Orleans-First Move is to
Reduce the Acreage.

New Orleans, La, Jan. 24.-By a
unanimous vote at the close of its
first session today the Southern In
ter-State Cotton convention, by gen.
eral agreement the largest and most
representative that has gathered in
the South, declared that reduction of
acreage and commercial fertilizers is
the paramount question to be con-
sidered at the convention, and it must
be settled before any other business
is undertaken. Eleven hundred and
thirty-hve delegates, representing the
thirteen cotton growing states and
territories, had registered when the
convention was called to order. Even
that number did not represent the
full strength of the convention:
The forenoor and early afternoon
we're devoted to compromising all
differences that existed as to organi-
zation, the central idea being that the
work Of Ms convention should go to
the country with the stamp of har-
mony and practical unanimity. The
result was that former Congressman
Catchings' name was withdrawn and
all opposition to Harvie Jordan's Sc
lection ended.
Washington Artillery Hall, seating
two thousand people, was crowded to
the doors when the convention met
As president of the Southern Cotton
Growers, Mr.. Jordan called it to or
der. He said in part:
"We are alb agreed upon four gen
eral propositions:
FIRST. We rnust tie-up and take
care of the surplus of this crop and re-
move it from the markets of the
country until next fall, and hold the
balance of the crop absolutely in our
possession until the price advances to
normal conditions.
Second. We must reduce the cot
ton acreage and use of commercial
fertilizers under cotton at least rs per
cent. under that of 1904.
Third. We must arrange tor
general system of bonded ware hous-
es, under local control of the people
throughout the south.
Fourth. We must at once proceed
to organize the producers of the
south in every cotton growing county
on a business basis to carry into op-
Grafton a permanent system of relief
and protection for the futurt."
Judge E. B. Perkins, of Dallas,
nominated former Lieutenant Gov
ernor Jester, of Texas, for temporary
chairman, and he was unanimously
elected Concluding brief, but ef-
fective. address. Governor Jester
said:
Two reforms must be lnaugurateo
bv the Southern farmers:
"Diversihcation of crops that will
reduce the production Of cotton, and
better facilities for the storage OF
cotton that will give lower insurance
and interest and better protection"
J. A. B. Lovett, of Huntsville, Ala,
Richard Cheatham of Mississippi and
J. H. Whyte of New Orleans, were
electer secretaries.

man moved that every properly &C
