COTTON RECORD
A WORLD BEATER
Consumption of American Product
Totaled 14,s13,OOO in Year
of 1915.

NEW ORLEANS Aug. 4.-The to-
tai worlds consumption of American
cotton during the year ending July
81 amounted to 14.S13,00 bales. an
Increase of $4,000 bales over the
preceding season, according to "a state
ment issued today by II. G. Hester
Secretary of the New Orleans cotton
exchange. Considering the conditions
brought on by the European war this
showing was regarded by the local
trade as exceptionally noteworthy.
According to details of Secretary
Hester's statement consumption for
the year just ended among southern
mills was 4,047,000 bales, against
S,131. 900 the preceding year; among
northern mills, 3,0O5,000 against
2,61S,000 last year; among foreign
mills 1851, 900, against S,053,0 600 last
year. These figures showed the gain
in worlds consumption of American
cotton was entirely among mills in
this country and it was sufficiently
large to more than offset a small loss
abroad.
Mr.. Hester placed the total visible
and invisible supply of American cot
ton July 81 last at 3,635, 900 bales,
against $3.50 at the end of the
preceding season. The total visible
supply was 2,129, 900 bales. against
$3.50 the previous year.

procedure of the conference. No in
dication is given by the foreign office
or the first chief as to the reply to
the suggestion OF the United States
on other questions than the with
drawal of the troops and protocol

impression among persons in close

is that Mexico will insist that these
questions be settled before other
issues are discussed.

FORCE WILSON HAND
on BORDER PATROL
Mann Says Republicans De-
mand Withdrawal or
State Emergency.

WASHINGTON. Aug. s.-Minorty
Leader Mann announced today that
the Republicans in congress from
this time on will leave no stone un-
turned in their effort to compel Pres
ident Wilson to withdraw the national
guard from the Texas border unless
the president comes out flatly with a
statement to the effect that the re-
lations between the United States and
Mexico Justify the continued presence
OF the guard in the south.
Mr.. Mann, "ostensibly to meet an
emergency. The troops from the
north were rushed south. The mobil-
izatior at first was crude, but entirely
what every one familiar with the sys-
ten and the administration expected.
Then after the troops reached the
border the administration leaders
proclaimed to the world that the
emergency was over and there no
longer was any danger.
No Benefit To Any One.
At first thought the experience
would be good thing, that both the
administration and the guardsmcn
would profit. Investigation of condi-
tions convinces me that the admins
tratiCn has not profited in the slight
est from the mobilization and that the
guardsmen, instead Of bcncfitinS by
it, have been made so sick OF service
that when their enlstmcrts are up
they will be glad to get out and stay
out of the service for al time to
come
IF an emergency is imminent, the
guard should he kept on the border
and gotten ready to meet II. If II is
not imminent. the guard should be
withdrawn. The administrat tion has
done nothing since the troops arrived
there to prepare them for an Cmcr-
gency. They are not equipped with
the proper articles of war or peace.

that some day he will get "A clean

friend must come. too. to chaperon
him, he said so Nine. Bernhardt
and Mr.. Howells and Doctor Holmes

that her "Phaedre" surpassed even
the magnificent Rachel He said that
he wished he could put his praise of
her into song. Nine. Bernhardt re-
piled that her "Phaedre" would be
much better if she herself could man
age to sing. Longfcllow replied that
she needed no added attractions He
wished he could make her feel what
he had felt when listening TO her.

can you read my poetry?" asked

Bernhardts versatility, for nothing
would seem to be farther from the
natural element of this famous Paris

classic drama Of the French stage
than the scenes and strange figures
Of Longfellows epic of American In

When Nine. Bernhardt was at last

threw her arms round Mr.. Longfel-
