ALARMS MILL MEN.
Attack on Cotton Bulls Causes Some
Misgivings.

Atlanta, Ga. April 1S.-Southern
cotton mill operators are alarmed
over the action instituted in New
York by the federal authorities
against the leaders of the bull cam
paign and profess to see in it a COW
ert effort on the part of certain New
York cotton brokers to get relief
from contracts with mills. They as
sert that the government unwitting-
ly Is cooperating with the bears in
another and what they fear will prove
a most disastrous raid" Many mill
men in this section tonight wired
congressman and 26 senators appeal
ing to them to institute an investiga-
ton with view to uncovering the
conspiracy" which they declare ap-
pears to exist.
Fuller E. Galloway Of La Grange.
Ca, president Of mills at Conyer and
Manchester, Ga, and treasurer of
three large mills at La Grange, to-
night gave to the Associated Press
the following statement:
II am an officer Of several mills
that have bought cotton on the New
York exchange at a lower price than
II can be bought in the South. We
intend to take up and manufacture
this cotton this summer. 1t occurs
to me that undoubtedly Attorney
General Wickersham was unwittingly
inspired by bears who have sold what
they do not own, thereby depressing
the cotton market at the expense of
the farmers and demoralizing the
market for cotton goods.
"a great many mills have bought
cotton on the New York cotton ex-
change cheaper than 1t is selling In
the South and intend demanding the
cotton. The bears hope by this at
tack to scare the mills out of this
legitimate trade and further demor-
alize the cotton and cotton goods
markets. In my opinion this attack
will prove boomerang for the bears,
as 1t only accentuates the shortness
of the last cotton crop and betrays
the predicament they are in through
having sold something they did not
own.
II can not believe that the more
responsible members of the New
York cotton exchange are behind this
movement as 1t questioned the right
of mills to buy contracts on the cot
ton exchange with the expectation
of receiving the cotton, thereby deny
ing the exchanges reason for exist
ence."

SENATOR ALDRICH TO RETIRE.
Rhode Islander Will Not Stand For
Reelection.

Washington, April Ex-senator
Aldrich authorized the announce
ment tonight that he will not be a
candidate for reelection to the Sem
ate. and that he will positively retire
at the expiration of his present term
on March 3, 1911.
This announcement was made to a
representative of the Associated
Press, who met the Senator upon his
return to Washington, from Rhode
Island, where he had been in consul
tation with his political associates.
II have decided not to be a candi-
date again." said the Senator. "Since
something Of my plans has leaked
out already, I would be glad to have
you make that statement. I had not
intended to say anything for a few
days, as I would have preferred to
have advised my friends in Washing
ton of my plans personally, but I
suppose 1t is just as we'll as it is"
Mr.. Aldrich talked freely of his de-
termination to retire. Ill health
alone dictated his decision. During
his service in the civil war he had a
long siege Of typhoid fever, and as a
result Of that illness he has suffered
periodically with intestinal troubles.
These discomforts have manifested
themselves when he has worked par
ticularly hard, and have caused him
considerable worry.
One week ago the Senator went to
New York, where he consulted ply
sicians. They were insistent that he
rid himself of the more exacting of
his burdens and devote a large share
of his time to outdoor exercise.
He could see no way to lead such a
life if he accepted another term of
six years in the Senate, and, there
fore, he desired to retire.

GEN. BOYD TO RUN,
Announces He Will be a Candidate
For Reelection,

For Reelection.
Columbia, April 1S.-In a state
ment. issue d today, Adjutant General
]. c. Boyd announces that he will be
candidate for reelection. Three
weeks ago Gen. Boyd announced that
he would not run again. He now
claims that this announcement was
made because his assistant, Col w.
L. Brock, led him to believe that he
could not be reelected, and that ne
has since visited Charleston and Or
angeburg and talked with his friends
there, and believes that he can win
again. He INDUCES in some picture
sque and characteristic language as
to Col. Brock, who Is absent IN
Winnsboro, engaged in inspection
work, end could not be seen in re-
gard to the matter. 1t is generally
understood that Col. Brock, who has
done a great deal of valuable work
In promoting the efficiency of the mi
litia, will be a candidate for Adjutant
General this summer.

New York, April 1S.-William Jen-
nlngs Bryan came home today. He
reached New York full of enthusiasm
about the wonders Of South America,
but with nothing to say about the
state of affairs, politically, in this
country.
Mr.. Bryan left Lincoln, Neb., on
November 13, spending some time in
the Southern States. Thence he went
to Havana, Jamaica, Panama, Peru,
Bolivia, Chile, Argentina and Brazil,
returning by way Of Porto Pico.
1.-THE object of my trip" he said.
was the study Of economic and So
Geological conditions in South Ameri-
ca"
What are the chances of the DEM
| ocratic party?" he was asked.
Good. Always good"
Mr.. Bryan was asked whether he
would consider another candidacy for
the Presidency.
Il have said all I am going to say
on that subject" he replied emphati-
cally. "I think my position is under
stood perfectly"
He added he hardly thought 1t nee
essary to deny stories that he was to
become a candidate for the United
States Senate, and that he was going
to embrace the prohibition move
ment.
Did you hear Of DR.. Cook?'
Eyes, everywhere I went in South
America; the papers said he was
| there. I met a Texan who said DR..
Cook was Democrat, and asked me
If I did not hope he had discovered
the North Pole. I told him that,
while I could express no opinion on
the controversy between Peary and
DR.. Cook, thought. as a general
| proposition, that a Democrat would
be more likely to discover the Pole
than a Republican, because the Dem
ocrats had been out in the cold
long time and are used to It,"
He said that the great possibilities
OF South America impressed him
more than any other thing. He
thought South America could furnish
homes for 25,O00,oO0 to 50,0oO,00o
immigrants in the next fifty years.
He said the chances for American
capital " e great, but that he would
not advise the poor man to 60 there
from here, as the opportunities here
are as great.
The sentiment towards the United
States in South America is excellent
| and suspicious and misunderstand-
ings, he said, are disappearing.
Mr.. Bryan will leave for Washing
ton late tonight and tomorrow will
start for Lincoln.
Mr.. Bryan paid a brief visit to
Mayor Gaynor late this afternoon at
the mayors office.
Asked if he thought Mayor Gay
nor might be a candidate for the
Presidency in 1912, Mr.. Bryan said
he did not care to go so deep into the
future
