GEORGIA SENATOR
FIRES ON ENGLAND

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 20.-Sen-
ator Hoke Smith of Georgia, today
made alleged British interference with
neutral trade the subject of a vigor-
Gus speech in the senate, during which
the speaker was listened to with at"
tention.
The Georgia senator, who was
member of President Cleveland's
cabinet and helped form the United
States foreign policy during the Vene
zuela troubles, pleaded for action to
prevent Englind advancing its own
trade at the expense of American in
dustries, while trying at the same time
tc destroy German commercially and
martally. He interspersed his plea for
action with the statement that rights
of neutrals are being recklessly dis
regarded by Great Britain, and that
Britain's boosted sea supremacy is
being used to retard the commercial
advancement of American industry.
He emphasized particularly what
he denounced at the British lawless
treatment of the American cotton
trade" The speaker asserted vigor
ously that Germany long since solved
the problem of manufacturing explos-
ives without cotton, and declared that
durng the last eight months the Cen
trail European Powers have been US
ing wood pulp successfully for such
purposes. Senator Smith added to
this declaration the statement that in
formation in his possession is to the
effect that the German are getting
better results from powder maufac-
tured from wood pulp, and that they
will never again return to the use of
cotton in the making of explosives.
That the United States ever de-
c,ared cotton contraband of war, or
that crude cotton had ever been so
ciassed by any snaton, Senator Smith
declared to be untrue. Russia, during
the war with Japan, placed unmanu'
featured cotton on it's contraband list,
he said, but upon protest from Great
Britain, Russia promptly revised its
contraband list so as to permit the
free shipment of cotton within the war
area. That the United States had
declared cotton contraband during the
War Between the States, Senator
Smith declared was silly and un-
true"
