COTTON BEING HELD, IS CLAIM

Columbia, Oct. 31.-Announcing
that $14,o00,000 worth of cotton had
been added to the stock in State ware
houses in October, which he declared
an indication that farmers of this
State are not selling their product
now, j.. Clifton Rivers, State ware
house commissioner today issued a
statement, in which he made plans
for extending the operations of the
State warehouse to receiving all non
perishable farm products, and pro-
ducts that are made so b ycanning OF
other process.
The State warehouse are now
receiving for storage grain, peas,
velvet beans and other products
which according to Mr.. Rivers state
ment, can be stored and receipted for
as eficctually as cotton.
"In the near FUTURE" the state
ment goes on "the commissioner
expects to put on special inspec-
tor for this work, who will be
able to develop plans to carry out
the law as recently enacted, en-
larging the scope of the State
warehouse activities so as to in
clude any farm product which by
it's nature is on-perishable. This
plan will work in connection with
agencies now instituted in this
State for diversified agriculture
and be a part in the plan for i'm
proving the marketing organiza-
tions Of the State. The system is
working together with. the Cotton
Growers Cooperative Association
in this State in the storing of cot
ton at their assembling points and
properly receipting and caring for
it until needed for concentration
and sale. This gives the associa-
tion the benefit Of the State re.
ceipts which enables them to, prop
erly finance their organization and
also gives them the benefit Of the
State system of inspection count
ing and reporting on their cotton"

UNITED STATES STANDS FIRM

Washington, Oct. 31.-The United
States government has decided def
'nitely not to reopen the American
consulate at New Castle, England,
until the British government has
Internationally withdrawn the
charges it made against Consul
Slater and Vice Admiral Brooks and
publicly exonerated the two Off
cials. The British foreign office
has been made aware of this de-
termination, it was learned today,
reached after exhaustive investiga-
tions of the situation at New Cas-
tie which disclosed no foundation
whatever, in the opinion of Ameri-
can officials to support charges
which led the British authorities
last August to cancel the exequa-
turs of Slater and Brooks.
This action of the British gov
ernment was followed by the clos
ing of the consulate and three sep
arate Investigations by the Wash
il5 tOll SoNCIll Va CIiSt
Slater and Brooks used their Off
cial positions in New Castle i'm
properly in discriminating against
British shipping interests and to
the advantage of American steam
ship lines. The first two were made
respectively by the American en-
bassy in London and Consul Gen
eral Skinner. These reports agreed
that no substantiation of the
charges against Slater and Brooks
could be obtained although Brit
ish officials had been asked to pre-
sent all evidence in their posses
| sion.
Still not satisfied to oct on the
two reports, the American govern
ment sert Nelson Johnson, an ex-
ecutive officer of the State Depart
ment to England with instructions
to make an independent inquiry OF
the most thorough character. His
report is in complete harmony with
those Of Ambassador Harvey and
| Consul General Skinner and acquits
the two consular officers of any
wrong doing.

THINKS EX-KAISER
is KIND-HEARTED

London, Oct. 31.-Princess Her.
mine of Reuss thinks her finance, the
former German kaiser, is one, of the
most generous, kind-heartcd men that
ever lived and she is sure she is go
ing to be the happiest woman in the
world after their marriage next Sun
day. That, at least, is what she told
the correspondent of the Daily Ex-
press today. .-.
II know I love the kaiser" she
said. Surely he is not so rich that
it can be said that l am marrying
him for his money"
The princess said a lot of other
women were anxious for the heart
of the former German emperor and
described how mad some of them
were with envy and jealousy when her
engagement to William was noised
around the world by telegraph and
cable.
"They did their best to hinder
our engagement by intrigue" she
said. II had hard fight. All of
my friends and so called friends
had their oWn plans. You know
several prominent women including
the widow of Colonel Won Rochow
thought of marrying the kaiser"
> Talks of Romance
In her most charming mannc,
the princess conversed with the
correspondent at the old Silesian
castle which is her ancestral home
She told him a little about the ro-
nance and Of her plans for the future
ut was like this" she said. "Some
| friends, who were in attendance to
the kaiser and who knew of our child
hood attachment invited me to his
home at Doorn. The crown prince
came to Doom also and in the friend
lest sort of way he chatted with me
about the affair of the heart. With a
laugh he said: "You know my father
is very good man, but sometimes
he is hard to get along with"
"A few weeks later the crown
prince came to talk to me again
He said: "Now I have watched you
all this time and I feel it my duty
to tell you my warnings were all
wrong. You surely know how to
manage people and the whole situa-
| ton here"

dramatic appearance befroe the jury

TO CLOSE WAREHOUSES;

Darlington, Oct. 31.--The Coop
erative tobacco warehouses announce
that after most successful season
they will close for this year on Friday,
November 8. A steady stream Of to-
bacco has poured in daily, and the re-
suits have greatly surpassed all ex-
pectations, it is stated.
The marketing was done under en-
tirely changed conditions, and these
had to be what is known as radical"
The most conservative member of the
producers association will probably
cheerfully admit that the moro radical
the changes, the greater the departure
from old-time methods Of selling the
crop, the better for the tobacco grow
crs.
1t is scarcely possible for busi-
ness Of such magnitude to undergo
such complete changes with so little
friction, and with such overwhelming
measures of satisfaction, it is stated.

FIGHT BEING MADE
TO HALT SENTENCE

Columbia, Oct. 31.-A fight to pre-
vent a sentence suspended during
good behavior" being made operative
by court order was aired in the South
Carolina Supreme Court today. when
the appeal Of Isreal Miller. of Chest
er, was argued. According to some
legal opinion, this case involves much
the same question that has been
raised by court orders blocking the
revocation by the Governor of pa
"olcs issued to run During good
behavior"
Miller was convicted in Chester
in March, 1921, of violating the
State prohibition law, and was
sentenced to one year at hard la
Dor but was given the alternative
of payi'@ a fine of 500 and serv-
ing Thirty days the remainder of
the sentence to be suspended dur
ing good behavior. Miller chose the
second course: In January 1922, he
was charged in the Chester munich
pal court with TRANSPORTING liquor,
& entered plea of guilty, serv-
& thirtv-day term as a result.
Ordered to Serve
Upon the expiration of his term,
the solicitor had Miller brought
before Judge Bowman, who, after
giving the prisoner an opportunity
to show cause why his suspended
sentence should not be made on
cratic, ordered the defendant to
serve the original sentence. 1t was
on appeal from this order that the
case reached the Supreme Court
Points included in the argument
of defense were that Judge Bow
man was without jurisdiction in
the case; there was no evidence
of other than good conduct EXCEPT
| his, plea Of guilty in the CITY
court and this isolated instance, it
| was contended. did not constit,ne a
violation of the good conduct re-
quircment; that the defendant did
not have a jury trial in the city
court, which, it was claimed, was
his right.
