PROTESTS AVAIL NOTHING
BREMEN REPLIES COTTON SHIP
MENTS WERE MISERABLE"
Heavy Claims Upon Cotton Shippers
of This Section Continue 10
Come From Europe.


Heavy claims upon cotton firms OF
Dawson and throughout Southwest
Georgia, who made large shipments
n Bremen. Germany, of cotton that
was gathered after the bad weather
set in last fall, continue to be re-
ceiyed. Altogether the buyers OF this
section have been called upon to pay
hundreds of thousands OF dollars on
account of shipments OF inferior cot
ton which it is claimed did not come
up to the required grades.
The Savannah Cotton Exchange,
through whom the buyers sold to
European firms, took up the matter
with the Bremen Exchange, but 1t
seems from the following from the
Savannah News that nothing mas
been accomplished.
Signed by Vice-President Won
Cleve another cablegram was re-
ceived by the Savannah Cotton Ex-
change yesterday from the Bremen
Cotton Exchange in Bremen, Ger
many, in reply to the cablegrams
sent by the local exchange in protest
against the treatment accorded Sa-
yannah cotton men by the Bremen
exchange, in which the latter reiter-
ated its first statement that the grade
OF cotton received was miserable
The matter was first taken up by
Vice President Beirne Gordon in the
absence of President Paul 7. Haskell
OF the local exchange and the eX-
change of cablegramS conducted by
him. Mr.. Haskell is now in the
city and will assume the further con-
Quoting of the affair personally.
Asked whether any action would
be taken on the cablegram just re-
ceived Mr.. Haskell stated that he has
as yet had no opportunity Of looking
into the situation or consulting with
the board, and that nothing further
would be done until he had done so.
From what knowledge he had OF the
matter, he stated, he did not see
that there was any need Of action
being taken.
The cablegram from Bremen
reads as follows: Our appeal COM
mittee never knows whether buyer OF
seller made appeal nor which parties
are Interested, therefore appeal
awards are perfectly impartial. We
state again differences explained by
miserable shipments from your side.
We invite YOU to come over and
study our system and convince your
self that everything is correct and
fair. -
The buyers of this section are in
clined TO think there is something
rotten" across the pond, and are
much interested in the action of the
Savannah exchange.

auditorium is obvious. We have no
Mace where large gatherings may be
held, and in a place of the size and
imnortance of Dawson this should
NOT be so. The benefits to be de-

would quicken public interest and IN
tensify public spirit.
This is something for the people
