CHANGING SHIPS FLAGS.

There is one serious difficulty which lies in the way of purchasing foreign built vessels, especially those belonging to any one of the powers now engaged in war, placing them under the American flag and using them in doing our carrying trade to the ports of any of the belligerent powers.
 The international naval conference, held in London on February 26, 1909, participated in by Germany, Austria Hungary, France, Great Britain, the Netherlands and the United States, formulated a declaration concerning the laws of naval welfare, which was subsequently, signed also by Spain, Italy, Russia and Japan. Although the convention has never been rati- fled formally by all of the countries which were parties to it, there is lit tie doubt that its rules will be re- cognized as declaratory of the status of international law on the subject covered by it.
 Among the subjects covered was that of the transfer of merchant vessel of belligerent power to neutral power The rules in sub stance are that the transfer of an enemy vessel before the outbreak of hostilities is valid, unless it be proved that the transfer was made in or der to avoid the consequences to which an enemy vessel, as such, is exposed. The presumptions are in favor of the good faith of the trans fer, and the burden is on the ,cap- turing vessel to prove that the trans fer was not in good faith.
 When the sale is made after hos tilities commence, the presumption is the other way. Article fifty-six pro- vides that "the transfer of an enemy vessel to neutral flag, effected af- ter the outbreak of hostilit'es, is void uul0SS IL IS pIOFcu lIIdI SuSA lldAo- fer was not made in order to evade the consequence to which an enemy vessel, as such, is exposed"
 Under this rule, any vessel pur- chased now and placed under the American flag would be subject to capture, and the burden on her own CTS would be to prove her neutrality in the prize court before which the case would be taken. Her voyage would therefore be interrupted, but if her capture was unlawful her own er would be entitled to damages against the country which captured her.
 There is this to be said, however, that if citizens of the United States were to purchase German vessels, put

Has Already Sent 200-Will Send 100 Weekly Until
 December 10
HEAVY BUYING IS
 CAUSE OF ANXIETY
Fear That Farmer Who Sells Stock Now Will Find Himself Embar- rassed in Spring With South
 Drained and Prices High

As an agent for a subcontractor. who is presumed to be representing the allies in the European war, Moxie Fies of Fies & Son. has shipped POO head of mules and horses destined for the field of battle and has orders to ship 100 per week until at least December 10 verifcation of. the re- port that MT. Fies was buying live stock in this section to be sent to Europe was given yesterday by MT. Fies himself. Mir. Fies said that he had already sent for ward abou. 200 head of stock. He said that horses and mules were about even In the number that he has bought. He said that the army did not especially care for a surplus of either but wanted about an equal number. The cash thus brought here will exceed sl5o,ooo.
 The widespread buying of stock for export has aroused considerable anxiety
 among farmers with an eye to the fu- ture It Is said that Mir Fies Is by no means the only dealer purchasing horses and mules and that enormous
 numbers are being accumulated for ex- port.
 The fear has been expressed that this buying will reach such a. point that when the time comes next spring to make the
 new crop that the farmers will find them
 selves without stock and unable to buy any except at prohibitive prices. If MT. Fies buys 100 horses and mules a week until December 10 and other dealers buy | in proportion it will readily be seen
 what large numbers will be disposed of. Predict Higher Prices | The farmers are selling their live stock, | 1t is said with the expectation of pur- | chasing next spring at reduced figures | hut those in touch with the situation do not expect reduced prices but on the contrary predict that there will be an | increase.
 | MT. Fies was not at all fearful that
 the south would be thus handicapped. He
 dc clared that the supply was practically | inexhaustible and had the following to say about the propositions
 We are paying on the average about
 sl5O to sl60 per head for mules. The prices | for horses are about the same. We are acting for subcontractor and of cours, we do not know officially for whom he 1 is working. We have already shipped l 200 head. The number Is about equall, | divided between horses and mules. W.
 have been paying the best price possibl,
 and have bought many in the variou, | small sections of this state. We ar, buying only southern stock and are try
 ing to confine our operations to this i'm mediate section.
 Why the supply is almost inexhaust | ihle. This country has an almost .un limited supply of mules and horses fo this work by reason of the encroachmen | of the automobile and the fact that thI: | country has carried an excess of horses and mules for sometime. I have no feal | OH that score.'

 dle Cotton Situation

Senator John H.

He also expressed little faith in the probable success of the plan of the government to foster the bankers pool to advance s135.0O0,O00 for the relief of the south.
 ''The plan which was suggested to the governor said the senator, would have, in my opinion. saved the farmers oi Alabama $25, ,000. 900 and netted for the state, itself, 100000. ...5,..4.s .s-. {
 The success of the republicans. in the elections last Tuesday, was due, in the opinion of the senator, to business com ditions incident to the European war.
