A B c Conferees Will Select Man Most Fit Morally
 and Materially.
WILL MEET AGAIN
 TO FINISH MATTER
Relief Held That Action of Pan. American Conference Means That
 CarranZa Will Be Formally
 Recognized.

New York, Sept. 1S.-In the hope of forever ending civil strife in Mexico, the pan-American mediators today decided to recognize the Mexican fac ticn best fitted materially and mor- ally to protect the lives of foreigners and nationals.
 This decision was reached at the conference between the A E c media tors and Secretary of State Lansing at the Hotel Biltmore. The date upon which recognition of the favor ed Mexican leader will be considered was set as October g, in Washington.
 On that dale, pan-Amercan media tors will again confer with Secretary Lansing. and submit the opinions of their governments, as to which of the warning Mexican leaders is best qualified for the job of qualification.
 Secretary of State Lansing express ed confids nee that recognition of a leader in Mexico would speedily bring peace to the Southern republic. He added, that. in the mean.ime. tempted. The matters of placing an embargo on munition shipments from nhe United States to forstall revolu- ticn against the decision of the edia- tors. MT. Lansing termed matter of future policy"
 "ThIere never has tGen, nor will there be. any disposition on the part of the administration to interfere &C., lively in the, affairs o Mexico" said Mr. Lansing.
 'The matter of arriving at the ascendant Mexican party which shall receive the endorsement of the United Stsles and the pan-American govern mnts, was lift to individual represen- tatives. Either by conferences with Mexican leaders or through briefs submitted, each mediator will reach his own conclusion on this subject, and submit his views to his govern ment.
 The decision to recognize one fac ton in Mexican affairs followed the failure of the plan adopted at the last conference to have rival Mexican fac ions get together and establish a stable government. It seemed to be the consensus of opinion that this latest diplomatic move pointed to the recognition of General Carranza and his party as the de facto Mexican government. It is regarded as prob able that an embargo on shipments of arms and ammunition to factions op- posing him will immediately follow:
 The decision to force peace by rec ogniziny only one faction. was stated to be the nature of last resort If at any tic Mexican leaders shall he able to gree upon settlement Of their affairs among themselves, they will undoubtedly be given a hearing.

SINNERS DEMAND
 SUPPLY OF COTTON
some Have Stocks Enough to Last Until December, But Many Operate Night and Day-Iieayy Bodies and
 Blenders Wanted.

"Business sentiment in the cast is moro cheerful this fall than I hav2 eyer seen it at this season of the year." declares s. c. Alexander. president of the Merchants & Plan ters bank, who returned Saturday morning from an extended trip in the east.
 Mr. Alexander declares tha4 the outlook is fine, not only for a normal fall business, but for an exec dinsly prosperous winter-the best in years.
 '"This wave of prosperity, which began only a few weeks ego. is rapid ly coming southward." he continued.
 MT. Alexander can see nothing but continued prosperity for the south.
 "Spinners are after cotton to a man. he stated, "some have enough to run until December, but most of them are working night and day. The demand is great for heavy bodied staples and benders.
 'sNo one looks for over twelve mil lion bales." he said.
 MT. Alexander shares the view that the present low tariff is disastrous. He declares that he believes the Dem- OtIdlS WILL CudHSG HlllI lOiICy pE lilio point. ..-....5 fs- ssenI4 "Most manufa cturers say" he stated "that the war has been great blessing in this respect. Had it no' been for the war the country would have been ovsrrun with English and French goods.
 q believe that hill cotton will bring 10 cents and staple cotton from II to IA cents. Europe ant Japan are becoming heavy hill cot ton buyers. One exporter alone took 9.O0O bales out of Arkansas last week | Everywhere in the east you heal that the highest grade cotton comes from Arkansas and Oklahoma. These two states were fortunate in escap ing the heavy August rains." MT. Alexander is of the orinion tha Detroit is Fthe busiest city in tht world. Automobile manufacture. h' states, has made it so. In Detroit l he declares auto works are runnin, 24 hours per day. in three shifts, anG the only difference between nigh and day is. the light.
 MT. Alexander speaks enthusiasti | caIly of the activity in New England caused by European war buying, bu says that Detroit is profiting ir greater degree.
