Damage to Property in Jackson Coun- ty VIII Not Exceed e2,50O-ves- sells In Harbsr Were
 Safe.

Scranton, Miss, Sept. 15--(SpeciaL)-- While the storm here was severe and blew continuously for twenty hours, strewing more or less debris along the beach and river front. the damage done to property here and in Jackson Coun- ty generally. was very light. I.t4 | While there were hundreds of craft in the port from small fishing smacks and naptha launches to the largest class of seagoing ships and parks. not a single vessel was beached or ground ed or even so much as shifted her moorings. :'y
 The big lumber vessels receiving cargoes here were all loaded Tuesday morning. The big United Statee dredge Pascagoula now dredging the ship channel. was moored the west bank of the river. with all her pontoons, and was serenely at work Tuesday morning as though the big storm had been summer sQuall.
 The greatest and practically the only losses here were the individual owners of bath houses which in the aggregate would not exceed s2.50o.
 The wood riders of the L. N. Dantz- Ter Lumber Company and other saw mill people and the holders east of the Gulf and Ship Island Railroad. report that none of the timber has been blown down and no lumber losses have been sustained in this territory.
 All the big saw mills at the Port of Pascagoula and tributaries thereto were operated Monday during the storm and continued Tuesday morning not losing an hours, time before or af- ter the storm.

Ferguson, United States Engineer. something more tangible and the sug- gestion evolved into a unique map ac- companled by statistics that are in- spring.
 If Montgomery is the outsiders op- portunity, what Is Montgomery's op- portunity? This was the question that prompted Captain Ferguson to draw the map. ..-".,
 The whole idea In brief is this: Ala bama grows approximately 1.oo0'oVV bales of cotton annually. which sell on the aver age of 10 cents pound. This same cotton, when woven into cloth, sells for 30 cents a pound. The result is that Alabama gets s5o.0oo,oo0 for the cotton grown. and the manufact- urers in New England and elsewhere get Sl50,Oo0.o0o. The State permits

 The answer. according to Captain Ferguson, is this:
