COTTON MEN FIGHT
FILIPINO MEASURE
Believe independence Of the
Islands Would Mean Great
Loss Of Trade.
EXPORT GROWTH SHOWN

Cotton goods dealers and exporters
arc starting organized efforts Ia fight
the early granting OF independence to the
Philippines on the ground that such ac-
ton would mean a loss 10 them and to
tho United states OF millions of dolla RS
In trade annually.
A genera, effort will DO made. by
petition and by influence upon Congress-
men. to obtain the defeat In the House
OF the Jones bill with the Clarke amend
ment which the Senate passed February
I. This bill gives tho islands absolute
Independence after two or not later than
four years.
A petition is being circulated anon
cotton merchants here and IN the South
by Taurus Loomis, 345 Broadway. rep
rescntstiye Of cotton interests. and by
Everett, 1ieaney a. Co. 5o2 Broadway.
large exporters to the Philippines. Sig
natures are being gathered from the
t~wenty-odd wholesale cotton houses here
and from the cotton states OF Georgia,
Mississippi. Alabama and the Carolinas.
Mill owners and planters Ia these States
are being urged TO remind their rep.
resentatives OF the trade loss the South
would suffer through n tariff imposed by
All independent Philippine government
The petition points out that In 1899
when this country firs, occupied the
islands. there were practically no i'm
ports OF cotton goods from the United
states. while In 1915 such imports wer,
s.. 300. 900. This was $500. 900 in en-.
cess of the combined export 70 China
Brazil. Chile, Colombia and Arabia
This does NOT include 81. 900. 600 in cot.
ton thread. hosiery. blankets and cthci
articles.
In general export trade with the
Philippines, the petition says, the United
states gained $4,000 900 In 1914. max.
ing "A total Of $4,000. 900. Of which the
cotton goods trade alone was one-third
In 1913 the Philippines export trade wa,
$4,000 600. the gain coming partly fron
inroads upon the trade of Japan. IN.
United kingdom. France and Germany
Tho S2&.o 900 900 United States import.
represented one-half Of the total I'm.
port trade Of the Philippines In 1914. and
their exports to us were in about IN,
same proportion Of their total OF sac.
600. O0O.
The cotton manufacturers feel thai
once the Philippines become independ
ent. without restriction. as they woult
by he bill now before the House. thi,
country would find itself confronted b,
"A tariN on cotton goods which woulc
greatly reduce profits and make difficult
competition with other countries.
The manufacturers OF the Suu;i, can.
not but view with grave concern the in,

EGYPTIAN CROP OUTLOOK

Aside from the stiw undcr,one. there
vas no feature to yesterdays cotton mar

o., based entirely ON old crop corsidera-
IONS. The south has evidently made UP

small, ii appears to be sufficient to
,.tc care OF the tricklc OF offerings
% various markets. II Is notable that
m spite Of the excellent character OF
tie local stock. New York Is still the
ricapsst market In the country. when
one CONSIDERS tho cost OF getting cotton
here. Middling Is selling In New York
e. practically the same price AS II IL In
Dallas, Tex.
Tie recent rains in the Southwest do
ioi appear to rave disposed Of the
drought and talk Of damage TO the erain
irons continues. The forecast calls for
unsettled and cooler weather In Arkan-
sla. Texas and Oklahoma.
Sew Orleans wired yesterday that
spo. demand MAS coming back stronger
man ever. Tie same character Of adj
wees was received from Savannah and
Texas points.
An interesting discussion OF tho outlook
for the Egyptian new crop is contained
IN the following extract Of 4 letter from
Alexandria written the latter part of
FEBRUARY:
The planting OF the new crop Is pro-
crossing favorably. A very large. prob
ably record. acreage IL being planted.
md tho work appears to be we'll for
ward for this period of the year. How
ever, tho most important factor In the
outturn Of the new crop Is the pink seed
ucrm. We have taken measures TO
have expert reports throughout the
uume on the condition OF the crop.
and from the reports which we have
already received we fear that this pest
viii do great damage again during this
summer. The pink seed worm hiber-
rates III the seed and consequently IL
protected TO a very great extent from
he cold wealth and also from the
attacks OF It's natural enemies.
The fellah, when picking last years
crop. foolishly left a great number OF
nc infected hollis on the ground to be
covered up with earth. ready to allow
the worm 10 reappear in due season this
summer. The sowing seed Is also
warming with this pest. SO that much
rssowing may be necessary owing "a
Tho spilled seed. In view Of this danger
'hrea,ening the new crop we ann take
an optimistic view OF the prospects In
spite of the large acreage"
There was very little feature TO the
'rading yesterday and prices closed al
4 net gain OF ) to b points.
The market closed steady.

The Growing Army.

A further indication that the public
is daily becoming more and more a
stakeholder In the varioue big corpora
tons Of this country was seen yestcr-
day IN the annual eport of the Western
Union Telegraph Company. Tina con-
ctrn reports an increase 81 10 81 per

as OF December ~. 1915, when COM
pared with the number on pecembor

december II OF last year there were
1856 Western Union stockholders. an
increase OF 3,0S7 over 1914. The small

OF Western Union: Of tho total number

Uneasy.

The railroad stocks were rather irrcg.
uiaf yesterday. some Of the leaders like
Union Pacific suffering losses Of over "A
point. The reasons which werc as.
cribcd to these reactions In the invest
meht issues were renewed foreign SELL
ing n thef fact that to-day is the time
when the railway labor unions are for
mally to present their demands. Tho
eohtihueu good earnings which have
been reported by the railroads for the
past few months can be expected 10
nave little effect just as long Az the
oosy or a strike or an earnings in
crease to the railroad employees involy-
ing additional expenditures Of millions
OF collars are hanging over the market.
railroad men have also predicted that
the present scale Of earnings may not
continue and Wall Street Is mindful
OF the fact that Il ID always Easy to
raise the wages Of employees. but very
dim,cult to secure their consent TO wage
reductions when earnings fall on.

Though " was only a few days ago
that the Bethlehem Steel Corporation
sent out It's first circulars to tho public
opposing the proposed scheme for "A
Government arnor plate plant. the COM
pAny has already received we'll over one
hundred letters from people In various
sections OF tho country pledging their
support TO It's campaign. These letter.
are coming from people in every walk "
lie. and especially from business men
who state that they arc believers I'm pre-.
paredness and believe one OF the best
means to secure II Is to encourage the
steel companies to maintain their present
arnfor plate factories. Many Of the let
ters voiced the sentiment tina as long AS
the people of the country will have to
put up the money for armor plate plants
whether the Government or private cor
porations produce the steel. Il Is better
to give the public a chance TO share In
the profits from private enterprise thsn
TO bear the deficit which would be apt to
follow a Government undertaking OF
the manufacture Of arino plate. Several
Of the letters received by the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation enclosed copies Of reso-
buttons and letters which were being sent
to Congressman and Senators asking
that they oppose the Government armor
plate bill.
