ta.ar Only % tho confederate graves
which are in northern states. Che
care al such graves in tine southern
states Is regarded as sacred uu7t
The first movement made toward
provision for marking tha graves eli
the soldiers Of the confederate army
and navy upon the part Of the federal
government was the appropriation b.
congress OF $500 for the purposes o
gathering the remains of confederate
soldiers buried in Arlington and in va
rious places in the District Of Colum
bia and collecting them at one place
in the National cemetery at Airing
ton
1t is asserted that George l.. Rhine
hart soldier of the 23d tor 26th)
North Carolina infantry was the first
confederate interment made in Airing
ton. Many interments were made aft
erward of persons held to be citizens
in rebellion" until as late as the lat
ter part of 1867 They were not all
confederate soldiers, a few being state
the Old Capitol prison in Washington.
In all $40 persons classed as confed-
crates were buried there When aft
er the marking of the graves of Union
soldiers. there was a surplus left from
the appropriation part of it was used
to mark these other graves. CHASING
them as rebels, citizens, contrabands,
prisoners of war, etc. and over their
graves were erected plain marble
headstones of similar description for
all as civilians, having upon each only
the number of the grave and the name
of the occupant, so that there was
nothing to distinguish the graves of
the confederate soldiers from other
classes.
This was the condition until in the
'70s, when 241 were removed by the
states Of Virginia, North and South
Carolina leaving 1856. These were
scattered about the cemetery IN ire
gular groups intermingled with the
graves Of Union soldiers and others
This was discovered about 1898 and
it was also found that there was 1913
confederate dead in the Soldiers
Home cemetery. These were collect
ed and marked with headstones bear
ing the name, rank, company, regi-
ment and state of the soldier. In June.
1903, the first memorial exercises
were held over these graves.
Out of the reburial of the confeder-
ate dead at Arlington arose an inves-
tigation conducted by the Charles
Broadway Rouse camp of United Con.
federate Veterans regarding condition
and location of the graves of the con-
federate prisoners. who died in the |
federal prisons and military hospitals !
in the northern states. AS result of !
this bill was passed by congress pro-
viding for the establishment of a com
mission to ascertain the location and |
condition of all the graves of confed- !
crate soldiers who died in federal |
prisons and military hospitals in the |
north and who were buried near their |
place OF confinement, and to acquire |
possession and control over all |
grounds where such prison dead are
buried, which is not under control or
in possession Of the United States
government
This commission was directed ito
prepare accurate registers in tripli.

quantity of cotton ginned, the guam
dty of cotton consumed monthly, and
the stocks of cotton on hand at the
end of each month, has met with gen
eral approval throughout the cot.
tcn-growing states.
lie has received numerous sugges-
lions concerning a still wider distrl-
button Of these statistics, and he has
made arrangements with the postmas-
ter general to allow the postmaster
in every post office in counties where
cotton is grown, to post in consplc'
uous place copies of the reports con
tanning statistics of cotton. These co.
pies will be printed on extra large
cards, so the figures can be easily
read. Mr. Harris hopes that in this
manner he will be able to give the
farmers, and all others, access to the
valuable statistics collected by this
bureau. Heretofore the reports have
been given by the bureau of the cen
sus to newspaper representatives. and
to the different telegraph companies
for distribution. Following this dis
trbuton copies of the reports nave
been mailed to the ginners, manufac-
turers. and warehouse men, but there
has been no practical method devised
for the distribution of the informa-
ton directly to the farmers. 1t is Mr..

tics to the farmers so they can take
advantage of the information collect
ed by the federal government,
