PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT TO
COTTON SPINNERS.
Regrets His, Failure to Meet Foreign
Representatives of Great Indus
try in Person.

BOSTON, Nov. 5.-The following letter
from President Roosevelt has been received
by c.. w. NIAGARA, of Manchester, Eng
land. president of the international FEEDER
alton of Master Cotton Spinners and
Manufacturers Association, under whose
auspices the European cotton s%pinners
and manufacturer came to this country
last month:
October IS, 1907,
my Dear Sir-I feel a very deep per-
sonaI interest In the important matter
which has brought to our shores so large
and distinguished a body of cotton manu-
facturers from the principal nations OF Eu-
rope. So far as l understand the plans and
purposes of the international Federation
of Cotton Spinners, of which you are the
president, you aim to promote stable condi-
ticns In your great Industry throughout
the world. and your visit to the United
StatSs more especially aims to bring the
worlds cotton manufacturers into closer
touch and sympathy with our own cotton
producers, upon whom you depend for
three-uuarters of your supplies OF raw
material. 1t seems to me an elementary
truth that II our cotton planters can learn
more definitely and at first hand, as your
trip progresses, the exact needs OF the
manufacturers in the matter of the prepa-
ration and shipment Of raw cotton and can
aim to conform thereto, the result will be
quite as much to their benefit as to yours.
You will find great changes In progress
here and an almost universal interest
throughout the cotton belt in the matters
that interest you; and ! hope and believe
that you will return to your homes not
only pleased with our country but en-
couraged to believe that your visit will
bear immediate fruit.
ut is a source of regret that the en-
gagements made long since rendered 1t
impossible TO receive your delegation dur
ing your ~sojourn in Washington. and to
say to you by word Of mouth what I now
take pleasure in writing. Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
Mr.. G. w. NIAGARA, president Interna-
iona Federation of Cotton Spinners."

X. ]. Wynne. of London, reports that the
most conspicuous feature in British trade

$22,5S7,5i4, or 1917 per cent.
The imports. on the other hand, have
gained only 81. 1885, OS, or 0.62 per cent.

STATE FILES ANSWER.
Federal Court Testing Validity of Min
nesota's Rate Law,

ST. PAUL. Nov. 5.-Attorney-Generai
Young has filed his answer in the suits
brought in the United States Circuit Court
to test the validity Of the merchandise
rates established by the railroad and ware
house commission and the two-cent passen-
ger rate and the commodity rate laws
passed by the Legislature last winter. The
jurisdiction of the court is involved in the
babeas corpus proceedings now pending in
the United States Supreme SQUIRT as a re-
suit of Mr.. Young's alleged violation of an
injunction issued in these cases.
The answer admits that a large part Of
the company's business is the t~ransporta-
tion of interstate commerce. but denies that
there is any necessary intermingling of the
interstate business, and alleges that the
amount of each, and the cost and produc-
t~iveness of each, are capable of being seq
regated.

POOR MOTORS SHIPPED.
Two Of Those Exported to One Of West
Indian Islands Worthless.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-A report from
a consul at one of the islands In the West
Indies, responding to an inquiry in regard
to the sale OF American automobiles in
his consulate, relates an experience which
should be valuable to those interested in.
the promotion of American export trade.
The consul states that two gentlemen
in his vicinity recently purchased Ameri-
can-made motors. and that one OF these
motors caused no end Of trouble to the
purchaser, owing to imperfect fittings.
The other motor arrived In a condition
that made 1t absolutely worthless. part Of
the fittings belonging to n motor of larger
size than that sent to the purchaser.
The consult p%ertinently observes that
these machines should have been thor
oughly tested before they were shipped.

new banks, with a capital of 81, 1920. 900,
were organized.
