TORCH APPLIED TO GINS
AND BUSINESS HOUSES
IN COTTON BELT
Two Gins Burned At Stanford,
Texas-Business House At
Hanceville, Ala, Destroyed

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 7.-Destruc'
tion of several cotton gins and bust
ness houses in the cotton belt after
ANONYMOUS threats had been re-
ceived ordering operators and bust
ness men to cease activities while
cotton was selling at what many
farmers termed a price below the
cost of production, has resulted in
the placing of armed guards around
several gins and the closing of busi-
ness in at least one small commu-
nifty.
Burning of the second gin in he
Stamford, Texas, territory within
two days was reported last night
and the general mercantile estab-
lishment of Taylor & Barnett at
Hanceville, Ala, was destroyed ear
ly yesterday after the proprietors
had ignored orders to close their
place of business until cotton was
selling at 40 cents a pound and had
withdrawn guards.
. Business houses at New Hance-
vile, whose proprietors received
similar warnings, closed yesterday,
but stores at Garden City and
Haneeville, and gins in the vicinity
remained opened under armed
guard.
Threats also have been received
by business men in Georgia and
South Carolina and the sheriff of
Anderson county, South Carolina,
yesterday was appealed to for pro-
lection after gin operators had re-
ceived additional warnings. In And
eson county the gins have been Civ
en- until October Z to suspend acti-
vities.
The Rowland gin at Anson, Texas,
was burned Sunday night and the
Luder gin, near Stamford, was de-
stroyed Monday night. In each in
stance the fires apparently were OF
incendiary origin and the owners
previously had been warned to close
the plans until cotton reached 4C
cents. Feeling among citizens was
reported running high.
Warnings posted on gins at Bow
man, Ca, read:
"We, the citizens of everywhere
kindly ask that this ginnery be
closed until November, 1920, unles!
further notified. Please take no
tice," a.
