New York, Aug. 5.-Sir Caspar
Purdon Clarl. director of the Met
rapolitan Museum Of Art, declared to-
day on his arrival here on board the
teamer Minnehaha, after several
weeks tour Of Europe, that the pres
ent American tariff on objects of art
Is ~handicapping the development Of
art and artistic culture in America.
Sir Casper said his trip abroad had
been party for pleasure and partly on
business for the Metropolitan mu-
scum. He said he had purchased a
number Of objects for the museum.
Concerning the possible acquisition Of
the Rudolph e.. Kahn collection in
Paris. Sir Caspar said nothing. He
.amitted that he met ]. p. Morgan
several times in Europe, ana that Mr..
Morgan had made some large pur-
chases for his own collection.
sir Caspar, speaking of the effects
Of The present tariff on art, said:
II believe the American tariff on
art objects has eXpatriated a good
many wealthy Americans who like ar
tistic things. | know personally of a
number of instances where wealthy
Americans have gone abroad and pur-
chased houses in London ad Paris and
snrrnunded themselves with works of
art and then have decided to reside
abroad permanently because they
could not bring their collections home
without paying a tariff that Is al
most prohibitive. \ man does not
To pay a big sum for a rare work
Of art and then have to pay half as
much again for bringing It home.
This same tariff is also a handicap
TO the development Of American
manufactures of art. You can inn
mort sample and replicas OF old mas
or tapestries and such pretty
things, but when it comes to the inn
pnrtant original things and really old
rare things YOU have to pay an
tariff"

Cotton has been coming in rapidly

attracted some of the farmers. AS
the season draws near to the close 1t
Is manifest that the opinion of most

that the crop would be short one,
and that nowhere would 1t exceed
one-half the average yield. was cor

however, that the yield within a ra-
