Speaking OF the proposed elinlina-
ton Of Liverpool interests from the

says: Cotton planters in America
have already considered the necessity
OF protecting themselves against the

that they have decided that no cotton

Opinions may differ as to whether
some OF the present tlislocation Of
trade could not be avoided, but it IS
daily becoming more clear that there
are too many conflicting interests at
work in the business, which makes it
vrry difficult for trade to move, and
those interests seem bent on blaming
each other for some portion of the
present unsatisfactory situation"
Thomas Temperly, or Bolton, In a
letter on the plight Of the cotton trade,
charges that Liverpool cotton lords
are supported by English banks in
keeping the Liverpool cotton market
closed and preventing mills from get
ting the supply of raw cotton they
need. This is much the same position
taken by Gordon Harvey, member OF
Parliament, who charged that Liver
pool interests maintain an artificial
cotton market and even when the Liv-
erpool market Is open do not permit
trading unless prices sare in their
favor.
