Taxes in Madison

Montgomery, August 5-(Special.)-
While there is no agreement on the part
of banks to guarantee cotton bills of
ading In shipments to foreign countries.
financial agents do not anticipate that
there will be any real trouble in NOV
ing the cotton crop. National banks
cannot guarantee paper of this kind with
out violation of charter, and state banks
are not strong enough to do SO even If
they would.
Thomas J. Reynolds, president of the
Fourth National bank, this city, states
that he looks for no real difficulty in
taking care of this business, though the
banks are not going to guarantee any
bills of lading 'It would not pay us
to do anything of that kind" he said.
However, | have no doubt but that the
trade will be handled in good shape and
the foreign buyers made whole In some
entirely satisfactory way The men who
have this class of business in hand are
not going to allow 1t to be injured for
lack of some simple plan to make the
other side whole
F. B. Fisk, cotton buyer, Is not so san
guine, though he expects the matter to
be adjusted. II would not pay for
single bill of lading If were a buyer
on the other side unless j was guar
anteed,' he stated. In full sympathy with
the foreign purchasers he can see their
side of the case, and Is not surprised. He
is fearful that the effect will be to make
the port cities the great buying places,
as the buyers abroad are not afraid of
the port bills of lading. Tt looks like
the interior cities are going to get hurt
and hurt bad If some good plan of over
coming the difficulty o not reached.
There is much discomfort among the
cotton men of all classes that no spe-
cial effort has been set on foot to pun
sh the brokers who have had hand in
the great frauds and forgeries that have
resulted in this failure of the confidence
In the shippers on this side of the wa
ters A broker said: "They are turning
over the earth to prosecute the Shreves
and their associates for the alleged TAX
ing of a hundred or so thousand in value,
but here are men who, by practices of
a criminal nature, have destroyed much
of the trade in great industry, the
staple of the south, not to mention what
they have wrongfully gotten"
One way of getting around the trou-
BILE is to have the banks certify to the
signatures of railroad agents on bills
This is a protection and at the same
time does not involve the banks. 1t has
the effect of making the bill negotiable
a thing that is not so frequnetly with
out 1t.

Taxes In Madison

After several days investigation of the

Lloyd, secretary of the state tax commits
sion, has advised a meeting of that body.
Chairman Mitchell and Commissioner
Powell WILL therefore, meet Mr.. Lloyd
there next week. probably about Thurs
day and go over the situation. 1t is
claimed that the values are too high In
the city of Huntsville and too low in the
country. From early reports Secretary
Lloyd is not at all convinced that there is
much room for controversy or that the
complaints are as well founded as they
might be.

Presented with a Cane

A few days ago the employees Of the
Alabama Cotton Oil mills presented J. M
Baker, the retiring manager, with hand
some gold-mounted walking cane. The
cane was accepted by Mr.. Baker in a.
most charming and feeling manner from
those who he has worked with for a
number Of years.
Mr.. Baker has been the local manager
of the Alabama Cotton Seed Oil mills here
for about 80 years. A few days ago he
rendered his resignation as the same to
the officials Of the company. Mr.. Bakers
resignation was accepted with regret. as
the local mill has always ranked as one
of the best in the south under his man
agement.
