Greensboro, N. c., Feb. 25.-The
cases against the Charlotte cotton mill
men who are charged with conspiracy
in violation of the alien contract labor
laws as result of bringing girls
from England to work in the mills,
will be tried in the United States
district court here this week. The
men indicted are E. c. Dwelle, Sum-
ner Sargent and Edward A. Smith,
owners of cotton mills at Charlotte,
and Thomas NJ. Costello of Philadel-
phia, alleged to be the agent who
went to England and induced large
number of girls to come to this coun-
try. The aggregate of the penalties
sued for by the government is ST.
600. 1t is probable that Assistant
General Alfred Cooley will assist Dis
trict Attorney A. E. Holton in the pro-
secution of the cases. The depart
ment of justice is manifesting great
interest in the affair. A large party
of the English girls Is now here and
many of them will probably be called
upon to testify against the defendants.

To Improve All Waterways.

on board the steamer Alton, en-
route to Memphis from St. Louis, the
Governors of twenty States" adopt
ed the following resolutions:
Fully believing that our water
regulation is rate regulation, and
realizing the Importance of the inn
prOvement of the waterways of this
country as factors, not only in rate
regulation, but in relieving the freight
congestion everywhere; therefore, be
it
"Resolved, by the Governors Of the
several States whose names are here
to subscribed, That we favor improve
ment of all the waterways of this
country and believe that improve
ments which have already been or
may hereafter be decided upon by the
general government, ought to be
placed ON d continuing basis thereby
insuring the speedy completion of
such contracts and doing away with
the waste and extravaganza incident
to piecemeal appropriation.
Resolved, turthur, That recogniz-
ing that a deep waterway channel
from the Lakes to the Gulf through
the Des Planes, the Illinois and the
Mississippi rivers SO as to admit of
the passage Of oCean-going vessels be-
tween the Lakes and the Gulf, would
be a line of transportation used alike
by internal and international com
merce. and would be a supplement to
the Panama canal, we recommend to
the congress of the United States the
adoption of the project and speedy
action looking to its complete con
struction."

September Cotton Condition.

The New Orleans Times-Demo-
crat of Monday October z, prints
its reports from special correspon-
dents all over the cotton belt, as to
the condition of the plant for Sep
tember. from which the follow
ing summary is given:
1. The accounts vary greatly,
according to the sections from which
they come; but, taking the Belt as
a whole, there has been a moderate
deterioration.
2. Picking has made good head
way, as a rule, but farmers are in
clined to hold wherever they have
not pressing debts to pay
3. There is much complaint of
shedding and premature opening of
bolls.
4. The next report, which viii
be the last, will be printed in the
issue of Monday, Dec. 2, when the
usual quantitative estimate of yield
viii be given
This is the last report that will be
submitted by the Times-Democrat,
except the quantitative estimate
scheduled for Decem Der ,, and from
its tone it is evident that scarcely
anything can develop that will en-
hance conditions from what they
are at this time. No plausible
reason can be given for the quota
tions dropping a single point lower
than they are to-day during the re-
mainder of the season, and the
chances are decidedly favorable to
higher figures as the season pro-
crosses.

ammunition in kind is available
against them. There Is not a writer
