Ga, May 15.--CharginS that inc system of fixing reclatnations in Bremen upon cotton shipped from savannah was unfair and unreason- able" the savannah cotton exchange has entered a vigorous protest by cable with the Bremen cotton exchange. The first protest was eabled on May IS and the next day the Bremen exchange re- piled that the 9insinuation' was re- sented and that occasional differences between arbitration awards and appeals arc explained by miserable off colored and mixed shipments made by the mem bers of your exchange"

PROHIBITION FAILS,
 SAYS GOV. O'NEAL
Best Way to Handle Liquor Problem Is Local
 Option

Philadelphia, May Ex-Governor oNeal of Alabama told the National Association of Liquor Dealers here to- day how statewide nrohibition had been tried in Alabama and was finally rejected.
 The governor said
 Tt has been generally recognized that the best method of regulating or controlling the. liquor traffic is to put 1t on the basis of a local question. This should be committed to the coun- ties or cities affected The thoughtful sentiment of the American people is tending more to the conviction that 1t Is the abuse and not the use of in- toxicatlng liquors which constitutes the evil to be remedied.
 ''The only sane and proper course Is to commit the traffic to private in dfviduals under strict and stringent provisions of law and order"

 1T did not, and I do not believe. that anything like that was done," said MT. Topping.
 Sale Not Forced, He Says
 MT Lindabury also brought from the witness the point that the other mem bers of the syndicate were sufficiently wealthy to have taken the Schley holdings themselves if they had had any desire to keep the property. He brought out further that the Steel corporation had spent $15000,000 on the property since it's acquisition.
 The witness recited the now familiar story of the various meetings of finan- ciers to take measure to check the panic including the Sunday meeting at J. P. Morgan's library where the Tennessee Coal and Iron deal was alleged to have been arranged,
 He was asked if at the latter meeting MT. Prick or anyone else had brought any pressure to bear to force the sale of the Tennessee Coal and Iron stock. He said he knew of none
 Bearing on the allegations of the gov ernment that there were price under standings among steel manufacturers up to a comparatively recent date. MT. Top ping testified to having notified Judge Gary and other manufacturers of his intentions to cut the price of bars, a year ago, before he publicly announced the cut. This was practically the same tes- tiInony he gave before the Stanley. com- mittee but Judge Dickinson intimated he intended to pursue the circumstances the episode further.
