RICHESON CASE IS
 SHOCKING" BOSTON
Marshal of Boston Is in the City and Says Public Sentiment Is
 Against Accused

That the guilt of Rev. Clarence Rich- eson of Boston, charged with the mur- der of his sweetheart, was generally believed in Boston and New England was the statement of A. J. Hicks deputy United States marshal of that city, who was in Birmingham yester- day.
 MT Hicks came to Birmingham with Emanuel c. Drew and James A. Tighe, another deputy marshal, and returned to his home on train last night.
 In speaking of the Richeson case, which has startled the entire country, Mr. Hicks said that no more profound shock had been given staid old Boston In many years than that of the arrest of the reverend prisoner. He said, among other things, that public opin- ion seemed to be unanimous as to the guilt of the former Virginian and that the evidence is almost complete. ac- cording to the detectives engaged on the case.
 "The arrest of Rev. MT. Richeson, charged with murder did not occur un- til the detectives had procured some very damaging evidence" said MT. Hicks.
 They ascertained where the alleged poison was purchased. Their only miss ing link to the chain is to ascertain by what means he administered the drug to the unsuspecting young woman His demeanor since his arrest has been that of a man possessed of an iron nerve. In that respect he has created a profound impression upon students of criminology.
 "The prisoner will be given a trial within a short time. and I doubt not but what the evidence will be about as yellow as that given at the Beatty Ca "

Evangelist Says Overcome the Devil and Get Back to the
 Cross"

The revival meetings at the Fountain Heights Methodist church are growing in interest daily and proving of great benefit to the community, as seven mem- bers have been added to the church ros- ter within the past few days.
 The solo music was furnished by Mrs. Martin Griffin last evening and at the song services, which begin at 7;45 o'clock tonight, the Woodlawn chorus of men will be heard. The morning meeting to- day will be held at 10 o'clock and on Saturday morning at this same hour a special sermon for children will be de- livered.
 The Rev J. O. Hanes, evangelist, who is conducting the revival, preached upon "overcoming with text selected from the 12th chapter of Revelations last even- ing. The minister said in part:
 Gods word tells of our great saliva ton and heralds the glad tidings of an eternal life for all those who believe. Men are saved from something, to some thing and for something higher than the plane that their salvation found them on- This saving grace makes men worthy subjects of Christ's kingdom and proper representatives of Christianity on this earth.
 This salvation is wrought, first, through the blood of Jesus Christ, and, secondly, through the continual testimony of the person saved In the Jerry McAuley mission in New York city hundreds of men are redeemed from degradation and the gutter every year and retained as Christians by actively testifying for Chris. every day.
 .If you would overcome the devil get 4I.- cot :. vision of the divinity of it's shadow. The preaching of Christ crucified was the gospel that marked the apostolic days with spiritual power and tinge the mod ern sermons with a sweeping force that pleads for self sacrifice

RENN|E bEAR|SH
 ON COTTON CROP
Thinks Alabama Production Will Not Be Less Than
 1.450, Bales

T. II. Rennie of Pen City. president of the company which operates the cotton mills Of that place, while in Birmingham yesterday reiterated his previous predic- uoa that the Alabama cotton crop will net al least l.asaOOo bales.
 If you make study of former crops he said. ''ig will be found that Alabama rso, ,es about one-tenth of the total lales of cotton produced by the entire south. l believe, therefore. that the total crop this year will total 1,45o,Ooo.
 ''rhere is cotton everywhere. I was in- formed this morning that a. Georgia plan tation with 25e0 acres planted in cotton had already produced 400 bales, and the production of 1000 acres has not been touched as yet. There is everywhere a general shortage of labor with which to pick the crop which still remains in the fields of the south.
 Last week I attended a meeting Of board of governors of the American Cot ton Manufacturers association at Char lotte. and 1t was the average opinion Of the we'll informed men present that the crop will amount to about 14,600, 900 bales, and that the price of cotton with strict middling as basis will be between $50 and S. 50 cents.

Cause of Depression

'HThere are many factors at the present time which are exerting a depressing in- nuenc. on cotton. The revolution in China has caused the cancellation of many orr ders placed in America, and naturally greater number placed in England. Han Row, the seat of the revolution, buys, as is known, a large amount of the finer products of cotton. Another depressing influence is the fact that we will have a new Congress in December, the frst duty of which will be the formulation of 6 tariff bill A third depressing influence is the current batting of the corporations, for political reasons or otherwise, on the part of the government. Still another factor which is initiating against cotton is the fact that next year we are to elect a new President. There is a general sen- sation of unrest throughout the country, and this can have no other than de- pressing effect on cotton and other prod ucts.
 Then again, permitting the cotton to remain on the stalk for a longer time than is necessary causes deterioration Of the grade. This, of course, effects the value of the staple.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-11-02
Cause of Mistake

The idea which prevailed in Septem- Ter that as a result of the worm, the rust and other evil influences, the state would produce a short crop Of not more than 11,0O0 bales, was due, Tn my opin- ion, to the general mistake made as con- cerning the outward and visible physical indications of the plant. There were cer- tain signs in September which we thought were due to deterioration, whereas, in my opinion, they were due to the fact that the cotton had matured long before it naturally or normally natures. Thus. whereas we thought we would produce a short crop, we will produce a very large one.'
 MT. Reunie stated that his mills were operating on full time, and that he was selling readily his production. His mills consume between 13,0oO and 14OOo bales of cotton annually.
