M'ELDERY LEARNS FACTS ON COTTON Was Delegate to International
 Congress SOME GOOD RESULTS Main Value of Meeting Was Elmna- ton of Intermediary Making Sale of Cotton Directly to
 Spinners.
SOME GOOD RESULTS

Talladega, June -(Special.)-George McEldery, who has just returned from Europe, as a delegate to the Interna- 1ional Cotton congress, talks interesting ly of some things he learned of interest to our farmers while abroad. This meet Ing advised the English spinners of the condition and difficulties surrounding the cotton producer, and brought the farmer and the spinner closer together. The English mill men were surprised to learn that the three to five pounds added to the weight of a bale by the old jute rags patched on to it, was the work of the compressmen, and not the farmer.
 McEldery emphatically says that it will pay the southern farmer to sell and ship his cotton direct to the spinners at Man chester, rather than Liverpool, and that cotton can be sold in the fields, or at tAe nearest railroad station, direct to the consumer at Manchester, thereby saving more than s1 per bale over shipment to Liverpool. The latter city, he says, IS full of commercial bandits, as in the New York cotton houses, who must have their "rake-off," under the guse of all sorts of wharfage, carriage, dockage, tare. lossage and brokerage charges.
 The resolution passed by the Interna- tional Cotton congress abolishing the 6 per cent .are. and favoring the Amer ican classification as the standard. will enable the farmers to use for baling, either cotton bagging, burlap or paper, without deduction for weight or loss of any kind. and more valuable than this 1t will enable the unlearned producer to know what grade of cotton he has for sale, and the value of the staple, be- fore he offers it for sale. This informa- ton cannot be too widely disseminated and is of great importance to the south.
 The priceless result of the congress was practically to eliminate the Intermediary and make sales from first hands in the fields to the spinner. possible. practical and easy; and this alone, in the opinion of McEldery. will be worth $50,000,000 an- nually to the south.
 Abolishing the per cent tare is death blow to the 'jute trust" On the invita-

tion of the Americans present In the congress, 100 English spinners have agreed to personally visit the southern cotton fields in September. Ten million people in the Lancashire district are dependent upon the cotton production for a living and McEldery says they are far more solicitous about the cotton crop than is the southern farmer, as by a failure of this crop they would starve.
 Personally, our Alabama delegate says he got along finely even in the countries where the English language was not spoken, suffering no inconvenience beyond doing without his dinner one day, be- cause he couldn't ask for it In the lan- guage of the country where the dinner was needed.
