TO SAVE MILLIONS ON CROP.
Senator E. ID. Smith Urges STANDARD
Grades for Cotton,

Washington, Feb. IA saving Of
$50, 100000 year to the cotton
growers OF the South, it is estimated
by Senator e. d. Smith, of South
Carolina, would result if the amend
ment he proposes to offer to the ag-
ricultural appropriation bill is adopt
ed. He would appropriate about ST.
100000 to furnish each shipping
point in the South a set OF govern
ment standard grades Of cotton, to-
gether with set Of samples showing
the spinning value Of each grade, so
that hereafter producers of cotton
may not be deceived by buyers and
by values arbitrarily fixed by cotton
exchanges.
Senator Smith received to-day from
the Department of Agriculture the
results OF its test as to the different
grades or cotton, standardized by the
government to determine the amount
or waste in converting given num-
Der OF DaleS into yarn; to establish
the actual strength of the yarn from
each grade; to bleach the cotton and
yarn from each grade, and to deter
mine the cost and result Of bleach
ing. Only the full grades" we're
tested.
Taking the whole findings" said
Senator Smith, "on an average the
diTerence between the high grades
and the low grades as now quoted in
the market is from $40 to SIS a
bale. Assuming the average crop at
100000 bales, it is conservative
to estimate one-half Of the crop at
middling. This would give 100000
below the middling grades, and cal
culating that the farmers have lost,
because OF the lack Of this knowl
edge, an average Of $40 bale, it
would mean an annual loss to the
cotton farmers of $75,OOO,OO0."
Middling fair yarn, tested as to its
strength in the unbleached form,
broke at 69.5 pounds pressure, in it's
bleached form at 66.7 pounds pres
sure; good middling at 63.2 in the
unDleached form, and 61.5 in the
bleachrd.
on the matter Of waste there was
I"2 per cent in middle fair; $40 in
good middling, 1898 in middling.
l2.39 in low middling and 16.47 in
good ordinary.

TO BUILD ALASKA RAILWAY.
House Passes Bill for Government
Line in Far Northwest.

washington, Feb. 1S.-The admin
istratlon Alaska railroad bill, author
lzing the President to construct
S5o,ooo 900 railroad from Alaska's
coast to its great coal fields, was
passed by the House late to-day by a
vote of 230 to 81.
A similar measure already has
passed the Senate and the bill will be
taken up at once in conference be-
tween the two Houses, with view to
sendlng 1T quickly to the President,
VINO mas signified his intention of
signing it,
At the eleventh hour, after a sharp
parliamentary skirmish, the House
eliminated from the bill, as reported
by the Territories Committee, pro-
vision. authorizing bond issue Of
$50, 100000 to finance the railroad
and to be paid off by the proceeds of
government land sales in Alaska. The
Senate bill provides for $40, 0,0OO.O 900
bond issue. Representative Fitzger-.
ala, OF New York, led fight which
resulted in striking out the entire
BOND provision from the bill.
Under the amended measure the
project would be financed out of cur
| rent funds in the treasury, the Presi-
dent being limited to $35,OOO,OO0
and $1,000,00O being appropriated
for immediate expenses. Congress
would appropriate each year the
amount estimated as necessary for
the construction Of the road.
The bill provides for the construc-
tfon of road mot to exceed 900
miles, to be so located as to connect
one or more of the open Pacific Ocean
harDors on the southern coast Of
wi 70 Il
the interior Of Alaska and with a coal
field or fields yielding coal sufficient
in quality and quantity for naval use
so as to best aid in the development
or the agricultural and mining or
other resources Of Alaska"
An effort was made by opponents
OF the bill, led by Representative
Davenport, Of Oklahoma, to POSTPONE
the final vote until Wednesday, but
it was defeated
Second Big Plan.
Theproject is of more interest than
even the expenditure Of the $35, ,0O0,-
600 proposed would ordinarily ere
ate. Coming so soon after the COM
plet1on Of the Panama Canal it is at
tracing attention as another great
engineering project under the direc-
tion OF the American government. In
a sense, too, it compares with the
governments undertaking in the COS
to push the Pacific railways across
the unbroken prairies and mountains
of the West and thus link together
the West and the East. Moreover,
the new project is to be the first test
in this country Of government own
ership of a public utility; it is en-
pectet to open to the commerce of
the world g'eat and rich resources
that until now have been for the
most part lying idle; it will afford
empldyment to a large army Of men
both II its construction and in its
maintenance; 1t viii develop Alaska
agricuturally as well as in other
ways by attracting homesteadcrs;
and will cheaper greatly various
cornnodities of commerce, notably
coal@9 At least these are all things
whicA the friends OF the measure
claim for it.
