NEW ENGLAND TO ADD 100 MILLS AT s54oOOOoo COST.
Than Last Year in AmouF
of Cotton Mills, Word5
Large liant. Feund One Hundred Years Aso.

Boston. -Industria expansion now
in progress or in prospect in New
England promises to make the pres
emit year notable for commercial
growth in this section. In four States
Massachusetts. Rhode Island, New
Hampshire and Maine-new mills
and additions to existing plants al
ready under construction or planned
number more than one hundred.
About half the number are in Massa-
chusetts. Contracts awarded thus
far this year for new construction in
New England exceed $54, 100000.
This is more than double the amount
for the corresponding period of last
year, and far ahead of the figures for
many years.
The greatest activity is shown in
the textile industry, of the establish
ment of which on a firm basis in the
United States the present year is
practically the centenary. 1t was in
the spring of 1909 that the Govern
ment lifted the embargo which had
existed for two years and passed the
Non-Intercourse act, severing all COM
mercial relations between Great
Britain, France and their dependen-
cies The effect of this measure was
a great stimulus to the development
of domestic industries and mills

the South and New England to manu-

had hitherto been shipped to England
to be woven.
The current year is the centenary
also OF the founding of the world S

Next to textiles, the papermalzinG
industry Is manifesting the greatest
growth in Massachusetts. What is
expected to be the largest factory in
the world devoted to the manufac-

about November in Springfield.
In other branches of manufacture

and the manufacture Of machinery

also shows signs of greater vitality.
In Woonsocket, R. T., where the
Tiberghiens, of Tourcoing, France,

Plan TO ELIMINATE NEGRO
Labor Unions Want Black Man
Barred From Industry.
Federal Power Invoked to Forward
Mails on the Georgia
Railroad.

Atlanta, Ga. - The strike Of the
white firemen of the Georgia Rail-
road against the employment of ne
groes is the opening of the campaign
by labor unions to destroy the negro
as an Industrial factor, according to
General Manager Thomas K. Scott,
OF the railroad.
There is in this affair" said Mr..
Scott, "a menace of such gravity that
the details Of it should be understood
by every Southerner
This strike Is the first step of a
movement which is planned to even
tuate in the abolition of the negro as
an industrial factor. 1t is the Skin
mish of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Firemen and Enginemen in its
plan to drive the negro out of en-
ployment on railroads altogether.
The plan has been smouldering
for i've years, and this strike on the
Georgia Railroad is the first STEP
The engineers will not aid the
striking firemen. F. E. Burgess, as
sistant grand chief of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, who is
here, says that as long as the road
lives up to its contract with the engi-
neers the engineers will live up to
their contract with the road.
Complaints poured in from small
towns near Augusta, and automobiles
were sent out carrying mails and ur-
gently needed supplies.
Between fully fifty towns in cen
trail and northeast Georgia scores of
automobiles ran on schedules, which
in some cases were faster than the
regular train schedules.
This service was mostly town to
town runs, but there were many ma
chimes running seventy miles, or more
than a third of the distance from At
lanta to Augusta, the route of the
main line of the railroad.
Passenger rates in these automo-
biles were unregulated. Some ma
chimes could be had from 81 to $6 per
hour. One party of four which came
into Atlanta paid $45 for fast forty
mile run, something over twenty-five
cents per mile per head.
The fight of the rural postmasters
to deliver their mail became inspir-
ing. Daylight brought in two rain
soaked, mud-bespattered postmasters
from the vicinity of Litheria, carrying
heavy sacks of mail after an all-night
struggle over pitch dark roads in an
automobile.
A brief stop here and back they
went to ride along far into the night
with the return mail.
District Attorney Erwin in Atlanta
may apply to the Federal court for
an order restraining strikers from In
terfering with the United States mail
through the stoppage of traffic.

BATTLESHIP BREAKS RECORD
Natchez, to New Orleans, 28O
Miles, in Fourteen Hours.
Captain Fremont Earns Trophy Of
Horns Presented Son of Former
Record Crowds Cheer.


New Orleans, La. - Breaking all
records for big boats on the Missis-
sippi. the battleship of the same
name arrived off this city from Nat
chez, having made ESQ miles in four
teen hours. She left Natchez at day
break, and for many hours kept up a
clip of twenty-five and half miles
an hour. This performance has been
beaten only by the crack motor boat
Brer Fox, of st. Louis, craft forty
feet long, with speed of twenty
nine miles an hour.
The Mississippi also made fast
time in getting under way. In thir-
teen and half minutes after leaving
Natchez she was going full speed.
Twenty-Five minutes is regarded as
good time in the navy for getting un-
der way at sea.
At Natchez Island, a little below
Natchez, there was fifty-four feet of
water, and the shoalest place the
Mississippi passed was forty-three
feet and a half, so at no time was
there any danger OF her running
aground, as had been feared by
some In some places there was no
bottom at twenty fathoms' sounding.
Between Z and o'clock the Mis-
sissippi made her best time, going
slightly over the twenty-five miles
and half mark. The boat did not
/ slow until near noon, when the APP
proach of fleet of coalboats neces-
stated it. After that comparatively
slower time was made.
All along the route the Mississippi
was saluted with cannon flying flags
and whistles. Each town tried to
Guido the others in celebrating the
passing of the boat. AS Baton
Rouge, the capital. was passed Gov
ernor Sanders and other State Off
Gals assembled in the door of the
State House on bluff near the river
and the State House flag was dipped.
| To Captain j. G. Fremont, of the
Mississippi, will be presented a pair
of horns given the steamboat Ruth
in 1857 for making the fastest time
from Natchez here, in recognition of
his fast trip. The Ruth made the
passage in fifteen hours, one hour
slower than the Mississippi. The
horns will be given by the son of the
man who commanded the Ruth.
After coaling, the Mississippi will
leave for Horn Island for the pre-
sentation of the State of Mississippi's
/ gift. 1t is silver service, on which
has been placed the portrait of JEFF
/ ferson Davis.

CURING MEAT BY ELECTRICITY
Current is introduced Into the Brine at Each
End of the Tank

A writer in the National Stockman
and Farmer says: This is to be the
next practical application of the cleo
trio fluid A plant for curing meat
by the aid of electric currents has
just been erected in Cleveland, Ohio.
1t is the first of the sort in the world.
The process is the idea of Cleve-
land electrician, who with a practical
meat packer also of the Forest City,
has by long continued experiments
worked it out. 1t is quite simple.
Electricity is introduced into the
brine at each end of the curing tanks
and currents pass to and fro through
the meat and the LIQUID.
The process kills trichina and all
bacteria 1t is far more clearly than
the old way and the meat keeps much
better. The method has been tested
for seven years in tropical as we'll as
temperate climates. Everywhere and
under all conditions the keeping quail
tiles of the meat have been pro-
nounced unequaled. One piece was
in Vera Cruz, Mexico, for four
months without protection from in
sects and is as good as ever. A sam
pie has been hanging in an office at
a temperature Of seventy degrees for
two years and is still sweet. The
process will eliminate the use of pre-
servatives. Had this art been known
at the time of the Spanish American
War there would have been no beef
scandals.

The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1909-06-01

The process also saves floor space
and time in curing, Instead of forty
five days in the brine, as with present
methods, from fifteen to twenty days
are found to be sufficient to cure the
meat thoroughly. 1t will eventually
save money to the consumer as we'll
as to the packer. And as the electric
cured meat also tastes better it will
stay the tide toward vegetarianism.
Those who have tasted the flavor of
this meat pronounce 1t superior to
that Of any other brand. BY increas-.
ing the consumption of meat 1t will
also help the producer.
A meat concern tried the process
on large scale with bacon, hams and
dried beef and found it in every re-
spect decided success. A Govern
ment expert has studied 1t for months
and given his recommendation The
inventors hold personal letter from
Hon. James Wilson. Secretary of Ag-

Patents have been granted covering

and lights and air brakes are to rail-
ways All packers will have to adopt
