Special CooIs Dsspafeh 10 Tun suN,
PARIS. June 2.-Speaking at the cotton
conference here on the subject OF cotton
growing. D. A. Tompkins Of the United
States said that prices had not yet reached
the point which would give the cotton
planter az good . living 80 that obtained
by many engaged in manufacturing pur-
suits. 1t seemed probable, however, that
the price would advance to is cents a pound,
and that an inadequate supply would come
from other countries to forbid such price.
A large farming population, he said, was
needed to meet the worlds demand, and
the European consumer who would use his
influence to turn tho tide Of emigration
from Europe to the American cotton belt
would do the trade more good than could
be accomplished in any other way. To-
day the Southern States, he urged, were
more suitable for the European farmer than
any other part OF the United States.

A RENEWABLE WASTE.
Fire Losses in United States and
 Canada for Past Three Years.

In the past three years the money losses by fire in the United States and Canada aggregated $S50,000,- 900. This sum is more than one- third the total cost of the war be- tween Russia and Japan. It is only $10O,0OO,000 less than the net pub lie debt of the United States. It is more than one-half of all the gold in the United States. It is equal to all the gold in Great Britain and Austria-Hungary combined It is 25O,OOO,O00 more than the net or dinary receipts of the United States in year. It is nearly equal to the total capital stock, paid in, of the national banks of the United States. It is $175, 5,000,000 more than the dutiable imports of the United States in a year. It is equal to all the gold imported into the United States since 1896.
 There has been burned up in the past three years in the United States and Canada as much as would equal three-fourths of the value of all the cotton exported in the same period. There has been consumed by fire in three years as much as has been ex- pended in the United States in three years on its public schools. If the SS5O,0O0,000 lost by fire in the United States were divided between the present population of the United States, the loss would amount to very nearly $10 for each man, wo- man and child.
 Of course, included in this enor- nous total of $S50, ,O00, ,000 is the fearful loss entailed by the San Francisco fire in April, 1906. But even if we excluded the cost of that catastrophe, the fires of three years would aggregate in the neighbor- hood of $500 ,000,0 ,000, a sum so vast that it almost staggers belief. Can it be for a moment questioned that the tremendous waste by fire occa- stoned in these three years contrib uted to the making of the panic from which the country is now suffering?
 Now, this waste is a preventable waste. Certainly the largest part of it Is absolutely unnecessary. There are no such losses by fire in the prin- cipal European countries, and the safeguards which they have erected against fire it ought to be possible to establish fin the United States. If it be fair to assume, according to the European standards, that the normal fire loss of the United States would be s60, ,000, ,000, then during the past three years we have by reason of ne- glect-criminal neglect-squandered s220, 100000 year. It would seem as if the prevention of this fearful loss constituted a problem quite as important. as the conservation of our natural resources. as the improve ment of our waterways, as the re- form of our currency, and even as the establishment of the square deal"
