BOOZE MAKERS ARE ARRESTED
Three Deputy Sheriffs Held in Raid
 at Mount Pleasant, Texas.

Texarkana, Sept. AR. w. West. R. A. Dale, E. c. Miner, Pitt Millneer, H. A. Millner and Samuel F. Wilson, the six men brought here by prohi- bition enforcement officers from Mount Pleasant, Tex, last night on charges of operating a distillery in Titus coun- ty, near Mount Pleasant, all made bond this morning following a hear ing before United States Commission CT Turrentine. The bond of Dale was fixed at $2,000, that of the others at $1,O00 each. Three of the defendants are deputy sheriffs of Titus county
 The officers said they raided nine premises in Mount Pleasant and found whiskey concealed on all except one. Several small stills were found, and II the country, not far from town, a 75-gallon still was discovered. About 200 gallons of whiskey, z,0OO gallons of beer and 30 barrels of mash ready for the run, were found and confis-- cated.
 It is said that three secret govern ment agents spent some time in the country recently working up the cases and that they learned the vioiators were well known to some of the of ficers, some were officers, and that a great part of public sentiment was opposed to the enforcement of the pro- hibition laws, so much SO, that it was deemed best to take unusual precau- tions and to employ an unusally large force of men in making the raid. Four teen officers, headed by J. T. Brown of Oklahoma City, in charge of the dis trict, made the arrests.

THE COTTON GROWERS
 TO ASK FOR 40 CENTS
Plan to Withhold Staple Until the Minimum Price Is
 Secured.

Montgomery, Ala, Sept. 6. - The Price Recommendations Committee manned yesterday at the convention of cotton growers, bankers and mer- chants of the South with the Execu- tive Committee of the American Cot ton Association will recommend to the convention tomorrow that this years cotton crop be held for a price of 40 cents a pound, members of the committee announced after 8 con- ference tonight.
 Another committee today recom- mended that 25 per cent of the en- tire 1920 crop in grades of middling, white or better be kept off the mar ket until May, June and July, also that an organized effort be made to secure gradual marketing of the en- tire crop by marketing one-twelfth the crop each month. A special meet ing of the bankers to consider the sit uation will be held tomorrow.
 The program was set aside for a time today to raise fund of $50000 for the national association in fur thering the plans to withhold cotton from the market. Half the sum was subscribed by the South Carolina di- vision of the association and the city of Richmond, Va, on condition that the rest be raised among the dele gates.
 The amount was subscribed within a few minutes, the Arkansas delega- tion subscribing $2,500. Scott Bond, negro planter of St. Francis county, Ark, subscribed $500 in addition to his state pledge, paying $500 on the spot and the balance to be paid in two installments of $500 each.
 Professor Todd, an English cotton authority, spoke in the afternoon. He said that the British cotton spinners have ceased buying, waiting to see how cheaply they can secure this years crop from South America. He made is evident that it will be necessary to organize tn growrs to keep distress" cotton off the market.

CREW OF SUBMARINE
 NAVE NARROW ESCAPE
Sailors Tell of Narrow Escape From
 Death by SuffOcatiOn in Submarine.

Philadelphia, Sept 1.-The destroy CT Riddle, with the crew of the sub- marine S-5, arrived at the Philadelphia navy yard tonight.
 l Unofficial reports were that the men are suffering more or less from chlorine gas they inhaled while only the stern of the little vessel was above the surface of the water.
 Lieut.. Commander Charles M Cooke Jr., commander of the S-5, still is aboard the battleship Ohio, where, a naval court of inquiry is being held
 The submarine went to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean off Cape Hen- lopen because of a large intake valve failed to close when the sub" made a practice dive-in navy parlance "a crash dive" There were 28 officers and men aboard.
 This was revealed today in the of ficial report made by the comman- der of the destroyer Beaver The re- port discloses that it was largely through the work of the imprisoned men, under the direction of Comman- der Cooke, that they were saved and that it was their own desperate ef- fort and not a telephone bouy, as first reported, that attracted attention of the rescuing ship.
 Through this hole they thrust a pole, sailors white undershirt tied to it and wigwagged signals of dis tress which were seen by the steam ship Alanthus, the first vessel to pass 27 hours later.
 The accident occurred at D. m Wednesday. With the boat at the bottom of 168 feet of water, the men worked desperately. Some of the water was expelled and the stern rose slowly but the storage batteries had been flooded, releasing chlorine fumes, the same gas that was releas- ed from the tanks by the Germans in their gas attack in the world war.
 The sickening fumes drove the crew from the compartments With the batteries flooded they were fore ! ed to work in darkness, aided only by small flashlights. They worked in two minute relays. They coulc not stand it for a longer period. Int chlorine sank to the bow of tla shin hui there was no fresh air and tht oxigene was rapidly being exhausted Finally hole was made and a thir trickle of fresh air floated in.
 Members of the crew of destroyer which arrived at the Philadelphia navy yard after having been at the scene of the disaster said the acci- dent was due to negligence on the part of a member of the crew. Of ficers would say nothing, referring questioners to Washington.
