COMING TO COTTON MEETING
Harvie Jordan Estimates Number OF
Delegates at 500.

Memphis, Tenn.-All arrangements
for the convention of the Southern Cot
ton Association, which will be in session
here three days next week, beginning
Tuesday, have been made by the Bust
ness Mems Club.
Secretary James s. Warren has re-
ceived a letter from Harvie Jordan of
Atlanta, president of the association, in
which he says he expects that at least
5000 delegates will attend the conven-
ton, and that 5000 may be here.
1t will be the most important conven-
ton of cotton men since the association
was organized.
Many of the best known men in public
life in the South will be among the dele
gates and addresses will be made by
leading business men, cotton growers,
members of the various cotton associa-
tions and by the governors of several of
the Southern States. Besides the gen.
eral subject of the best methods of ad-
vancing the price of cotton and making
the crop profitable one to the South
ern planter, attention will be given to
the general subject of the might riders
and several addresses on this special sub
ject will be delivered during the conven-
ton.

TAFT CARRIES MARYLAND
But Bryan Will Receive Six of the
States Electoral Votes.

Baltimore, Md.-The canvass of Mary
lands election returns shows that the
States electoral vote is divided, al
though Judge Taft actually carried the
State on the popular vote. The official
canvass shows that Maryland will cast
six of her eight votes in the electoral
college for Bryan, while the other two
votes in the electoral college will be cast
for Taft.
On popular vote Taft has carried
the State by COS plurality, the actual
figures for the vote in the whole State,
taking the vote of the highest elector- on
each side as representing the real vote
of the respective candidates, was as fol-
lows: Taft, 1864; Bryan, 115,909.
The split in the delegation from Mary
land is due to the fact that the. vote
for the eight electors on each of the two
leading tickets varies widely, while the
reason that the Democrats secure more
electors than the Republicans is because
the difference between the vote of the
highest and lowest electors on the Demo
cratic side is much less than it is be-
tween the highest and lowest on the Re-
publican side.

ROOSEVELT FOR THE SENATE
Bryan, Kern and Foraker May Be
in Same Body.

ashington.-Senator Roosevelt, of
New York, it may be on March next,
Immediately after the Inauguration of
President Taft and the retirement of
Thomas c. Platt.
1t was known that President Roose-
welt would not be averse to entering the
senate in the event of Judge Taft's cleo
ton, but he had his trip to Africa in
mind and was supposed to have decided
to 60 to the senate in 1911, succeeding
Chauncey NJ. Depew, but now that Taft
has been overwhelmingly elected, Mr..
Roosevelt is eager to remain in the
game and see to it, as the leading sup
porter of the administration at the cap.
itol, that the Roosevelt policies are
pushed for all they are worth.
1t is also surmised that he would like
the senate so well and enjoy so much
keeping the old boys startled that he
would forego his African hunt.
1t has been predicted here that the
Sixty-second congress, beginning March
4, 1911, will see in the senate at the
same time Theodore Roosevelt, j. b.
Foraker from Ohio, who will succeed
Charles Dick, and the late Democratic
standard-bearers, William j. Bryan and
John w. Kern.

Total ................. 1913 32'

New York-Generel election returns
received up to midnight show the follow.
ing results:
Practically no change is indicated in
the complexion of the national house Of
representatives.
Gov. Chas. E. Hughes has been re-
elected in New York State by about
$4,000 plurality.
Bryan has carried Nebraska.
The Republican plurality fell off
heavily in the Middle West, matter
thoroughly surprising to Republicans.
Speaker Cannon has been reelected by
his usual majority. Representatives
Payne of New York and Dalzell of Penn
sylvania have been reelected, and the
house of representatives probably will
continue under its old regime. Mr..
Payne will have charge of the new tariff
bill in the extra session, which Mr.. Taft
will call Immediately after March A
next.
There hos been a shrinkage in the
Democratic vote in several of the South
ern States, notably in Virginia and North
Carolina.
Mr.. Taft has carried Wisconsin by a
plurality estimated at $4,000, falling
off from the Roosevelt plurality of 1885,
900 in 1904.
Kentucky has gone safely for Mr..
Bryan by between 10000 and $4,000.

TARIFF WILL BE REVISED.
Frat Act of President Taft Will Be
to Convene Congress.

Cincinnati, O.-That Judge Taft is
fully determined to do all in his power
to bring about revision of the tariff
is indicated by declaration made to-
day that the first thing he will do after
his Inauguration will be to call for an
extra session of congress to take up the
question. During his campaign he ex-
pressed the firm belief that revision was
necessary. That he regards the prob
lem as one of the most important that
will come up during his administration,
and that it is uppermost in his mind
now, was shown by his declaration made
while discussing the issues of the cam
paign.
He will devote much time to a study
of the problem during the winter months
and make it the exclusive subject of a
special message that he will prepare for
submission to the special session of the
new congress that he will call immedi-
ately after the Inauguration.

DEEP WATERWAY A WINNER
Bond Issue of $50, 900 Author
lied by Voters of Illinois.

Chieago.-That Illinois will perform
her part in the construction of the lakes
to-the-gulf deep waterway is indicated
by belated returns on the proposition
submitted to the people at Tuesdays
election to bond the State for S20,00O,O00
TO construct a channel from Lockport,
H., to Utica, ILL.,, on the Illinois river.
The vote in Cook county (Chicago)
was almost five to one in favor of the
bond issue, and heavy majorities were
rolled up in its favor in the river coun-
ties. This more than offset the indif-
ferent opposition of interior counties,
and it is estimated that the proposition
carried by $4,000, more than half of all
the votes cast in the election.
AS little opposition by the legislature
is anticipated to the passage of deep
waterway law, it is stated that by 1915
Illinois will have a 14-foot channel from
Chicago to the Mississippi river.

SEVERAL VETERANS RETIRED
Many Changes in Congress-Hep-
burn Will Be Missing.

Washington.-The present indications
are that the Republicans will have about
a two-thirds majority in the United
States senate as the result of yester-
days election, or practically the same as
at present. Of the go members of that
body 81 hold over, leaving only 81 places
to fill. Of these 10 are Republicans and
IL Democrats. Alabama, Arkansas, Lou
isiana and Maryland also have chosen
Democrats and Kentucky and Vermont
Republicans. The senators to whom sue
cessors are TO be elected are:
Republicans Ankeney, Washington;
Brandegee, Connecticut; Gallinger, New
Hampshire; Hansbrough, North Dakota;
Hepburn, Idaho; Hopkins, Illinois; Kit
tredge, South Dakota; Long, Kansas;
Penrose, Pennsylvania; Perkins, Califor-
mia; Platt, New York; Smoot, Utah;
Stephenson, Wisconsin. All of whom
will be succeeded either by themselves
or other Republicans.
Democrats-Clay, Georgia; Gary,
South Carolina; Gore, Oklahoma; Mil
ton, Florida; Overman, North Carolina.
All of whom will be succeeded by Demo
Gratis.
The only senatorships remaining in
doubt are those of Ohio, Indiana and
Oregon, which are now represented by
Senators Foraker, Hemenway and Full
ton, Republicans, and Colorado, Missouri
and Nevada, represented by Senators
Teller, Stone and Newlands, Democrats.

Republicans Gain Two.

Chicago.-The returns from congress
sional districts throughout the country
show Republican gain of 2. Albert
Doublas (Rep.) is elected in the Eleventh
Ohio district, and Moses P. Kinkaid
iRep), who was reported. as defeated in
the Sixth Nebraska district, was also re-
turned as elected. The contest in the
Fifth Nebraska district is extremely
close and will require official count to
determine the result. According to re-
ports received to date, the next house
will consist of 173 Democrats and Els
Republicans.

BRYAN WILL NOT RUN AGAIN
May Go to the United States Senate
From Nebraska.

New York.-Chairman Mack said
Wednesday:
81 do not believe that Mr.. Bryan will
again be a candidate of the Democratic
party for president. Should the legisia-
ture be Democratic in Nebraska, when a
vacancy occurs in the United States SEN
ate, as will be the case in 1911, believe
Mr.. Bryan will be selected to fill the
office"
Mr.. Mack was asked if he thought
the South would be recognized in the
next national convention and be per
mitted to name n candidate from that
section of the country.
"The most available man will be nomi-
nated," he replied, irrespective of wheth-
er he comes from the North or the South,
the East or the West. Everything will
depend upon his availability and other
conditions, of course, which viii develop
in the next four years."

GOMPERS NOT DAUNTED.
Temporarily Defeated, But Not Con-
quered," He Says of Result.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY defeated,
but not conquered" is the way Samuel
P. Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, sums up labor's
view of the question in a statement is
sued today, as follows:
"The organized workers stood true to
the cause of justice and human freedom.
This is not the first time in the strug-
giles of the masses that entrenehed
wealth, privilege and power gained ma
terial, even though temporary, victory.
The moral influence of the campaign is
with the cause of the workers. The part
labor took compelled the discussion to
be devoted almost exclusively to the Ia
Dor question, labor movement and the
principles of right, justice an dhuman-
ity, upon which their philosophy and de-
mands are based"

TENNESSEE is DEMOCRATIC.

Nashville, Tenn.-At midnight returns
indicated the reelection of Gov. Patter-
son by Democratic majority of be-
tween 10000 and $4,000. Secretary Luck,
at Republican headquarters, does not
concede this result, but expressed him
self as being satisfied with the decreased
Democratic majority. In Middle Ten
nessee Patterson was knifed to a consid-
cradle extent by the temperance Demo
Gratis, and in West Tennessee he also
ran behind Bryan in some counties, but
in East Tennessee he led the ticket.
Tillman lost heavily in some of the
East Tennessee counties owing to the
opposition of Brownlow and the faction.
al fight in the Second congressional dis
trict Brownlow got in by $4,000 ma
jority, and Austin, the Independent,
has defeated Hale, the incumbent.

NEGRO COULD NOT VOTE.
Constitution of Virginia Upheld by
United States Court.

Richmond, Vain the United States
court Judge Golf handed down an Opin-
ion in the case of John w. Brickhouse, a
negro, against C. T. Brooks and VIM. Jes-
sup, election judges of Norfolk county,
in which the validity of the new Vir-
ginia constitution was attacked on ae-
count of the failure of the members of
the constitutional convention to take
oath to uphold the federal constitution
Brickhouse contended that the old con
stitution stood, and therefore he had been
illegally deprived of his right to vote.
The court held that Brickhouse's con-
tention was without merit, and that as
the new constitution had been declared
valid by the legislature and the governor
of Virginia, it was in fact the eonstitu-
ton of Virginia.

PROSPERITY Is COMING BACK
Estimated That 100000 Will Be
Back at Work Before January.

New York.-Reports from all over the
country continued to show the unmis-
taxable return of business prosperity.
The revival is general.
The most cheering information is that
circulated by the National Association of
Manufacturers to the effect that one
half of their 1900 members will re-en-
gage an aggregate of 100000 workmen
dismissed as result of business depres-
sion during the past year. These are to
be engaged before Dec. next. The asso-
cations official newspaper estimates
that if all the 10000 manufacturers
throughout the country who employ more
than 100 men each were affected in the
same way as their members, 100000 men
would be added to the army of the en-
ployed before the first of the year.

NEBRASKA FOR BRYAN.
State Remembers Native Son in Hand.
some Manner.

Lincoln, Neb.-At 1880 Wednesday
nesday morning, indications were that
Nebraska had gone Democratic by plu-
rality not far from 10000 for Bryan
and plurality scarcely less for the ma
tional ticket. As was confidently ex-
pected, the result was q surprise and a
disappointment to Republican manage
ment, which, while admitting the State
was doubtful on the national ticket, con-
fidently expected the State ticket to be
elected. The tremendous gain for Bryan
in the city of Lincoln was the sensation
of the election. Not only did Mr.. Bryan
reverse Republican plurality of 1900
in his home city. but he carried it by a
plurality of something in excess of 6O0
If this is maintained throughout, Bryan
has won by little over 5000 aside from
Lincoln and Omaha and Shallenberger is
elected governor by practically the same
plurality.

REPUBLICANS HOLD CONGRESS.

New York.-The Republicans will re-
main in control of both branches of con-
gress and in all probability by slight
ly increased majority. 1t is impossible
at this time, because of the incomplete
ness of the congressional returns, to give
an absolutely accurate statement IF
either the senate or the house, but on
the best returns available, the Republic
ans appear to have made a net gain of
one in the house of representatives. Solid
delegations of Democrats, with returns
from Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Gecr-
gia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada,
South Carolina and Texas. The Repub-
licans apparently have solid delegations
in Delaware, Idaho, Kansas, Maine,

Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon, Titan,

old lady, who had reached the age of
nearly 1O4, is dead in this city. She was
Julia O'Brien, and she came to this coun-
try seventy five years ago from County
Tipperary, ireland. Up to the time of
her death she took the keenest enjoy

this habit she attributed in measure
her long life. Up to week before her
death she was one of the liveliest mem
bers of the home. Her husband died
years ago, and a son, aged rs, also died
about two years ago.

IOWA BY 40, 900.
Large Loss From Roosevelt Plurality.
Labor Vote to Bryan.


Des Moines, Iowa.-The incomplete re-
turns received at 10 o'clock indicate that
Taft has carried Iowa by plurality OF
from 1000 to $4,000. This is ire
mendous falling off from the Roosevelt
plurality of $4,000 of four years ago,
but it represents only a slight falling of
from the normal plurality. The entire
Republican State ticket is elected, prob
ably by about the same plurality. Gov.
Cummins probably carried the Republi-
can senatorial primary over Maj. j. F.
Lacey by plurality of 10000 to $4,000,
a tremendous gain from last June, when
he was defeated by Allison by 1000.
The indications are that the entire
delegation in congress will be Republi-
can, a gain of one over two years ago.
In Des Moines there was tremendous
loss of votes to the Republicans. due to
the large labor vote for Bryan. Hull,
in the Seventh district, was elected by a
reduced plurality.

TAFT CARRIES NEW YORK CITY
Tammany Traded Bryan for ChanleI
Wherever Possible

New York-The State of New York
has again registered its verdict in favor
of the Republican party, and gave plu-
rality for William Howard Taft for pres
ident of the Uniteo States which may
be in excess of $4,000.
The determined opposition of the race
tracks and other interests which he had
antagonized during his term as governor,
seriously cut into the vote of Gov.
Hughes, and his majority will be not
more than $4,000 and may fall under
that figure.
The most remarkable feature of the
election was the manner in which Bryan
was slaughtered in New York City.
