BIG TEXTILE INTERESTS
Tariff Revision With Reference To Its Effect Upon Cotton Manufacture
 Is One of the Principal Sub jects To Be Considered.

Atlanta. March IA meeting Of far-reaching importance to the cotton
 mill industry of the south is that of the representatives of the various tex tile associations of Georgia, North Carolina. South Carolina. Alabama, Mis- sisslppi and Louisiana, to be held In Atlanta on Tuesday of this week, at which tariff revision, with reference to it's effect upon cotton manufactures, Is to be considered. Local cotton factors announce that while they had no defi- nite Information as to any changes proposed in the tariff affecting this in- dustry, 1t was considered advisable to call a meeting of the southern inter- ests with view of considering possi- ble changes and to appoint commit tee to appear before the ways and means committee of the House, if 1t was found expedient after a full dts cussion of the matter.
 It is said that New England mills, which manufacture the finer fabrics, are seeking to have the tariff on this grade of goods increased and at the same time favor reduction on eoarser cotton goods which are manufactured principally by southern mills. This was given today by prominent local mill man as one of the reasons for the meeting Tuesday. He said that high CT tariff on the finer cotton goods would give to New England a monopoly.
 A reduction in the output of south ern yarn mills may be proposed at this meeting it is said. on account of tar fir rumors The meeting will discuss the advisability of asking the American Textile association and the National Manufacturers association to adopt a uniform sales contract. Plans also will be discussed whereby the southern product may be sold direct to the pur- chaser, eliminating the broker

Paris, March 14-Pars is now threat ened with a general strike of the tele- graph and telephone operators employed in the bureaus of the postoffices. As result of energetic measures the authori- ties are suppressing the strike of the tee- graph operators, which isolated Paris for hours yesterday, 40 of the ringleaders, in- cluding 10 railway mall clerks, who re- fused to board their trains, have been suspended, pending their dismissal from the service.

 Throughout Sunday the associations of the various branches of the service held secret meetings The preliminary meet ing of the general association will be held tomorrow when final action will be taken. Many of the employees have voted for a strike, while the railway mail clerks have voted to hold solidly together in whatever action is decided upon.
 The regular labor leaders, like Secre- tary Pataud, of the Electricians union, are doing their utmost to bring about a strike. They are offering to cooperate with the postal employees in the hope of accomplishing the object for which they have long labored, that is, to induce the state servants to make common cause with the labor organizations.
 Although the government appears con- fident that it will be able to insure pub lie service, there is apprehension that if a strike is declared 1t will spread quick ly to the provinces, and that the whole telegraph and mail service will be par
