the memory of the writer that before war, Mr. Ueorge Yerger had a salp-nlng mill attached to hla gin on hie plan-taion and reduced the lint to yarns with great pront, aroiding- toe expense of Egging and ties and furniahing tbe thread with unbroken liber, from roe lint room, which had never undergone the terrible process of pressing and com pressing. Our DeoDle should not in mnfn ta furnWA the raw material to old ogland or New Kagland at killing prices to the Sroancer, oat snowa put it on toe mar-et fit for man' use. The 220 mills in actual operation In North Carolina and be lt mills in South Carolina and the methods there adop.ed, are practical-pointers to guide tbe cot- ion grower one oz nia trouble, xbe people of iUe south are tookung into and tblnking orer this matter, and 5-cent cotton is a wonderful sharpener of their Tiston. The town of Edgefield.

8. furnkhes a striking example of what can ee aone in cms oirecuon. neren years ago the Edgefield Manufacturing Company established, in a modest way, a fertiliser factory and an oil mill, all In tnt building. In thle way It utilised th seed, whlcti constitutes in weigat one- Vblrd of the crop. Uecently it has put up spindles and looms in an adjoining building.

Klgbt In the cotton field they have the four primary processes a gin. an oil mill, a fertilising plant and a cotton mill. The Edgefield factory takes its raw material directly from tbe farmer's wagon. dir. U.

Some men pushed their way boldly Into the office," and nrjred tbe of fleers and clerk there to hurry with. the money. Bat the German-American Debenture Company waa without funds to meet the run, and the officers begged That roused the men close to the office rails, and some shook their flats and srted tike bread rioters, and tbe people outside on the sidewalk and cobbles caught tbe fever of They encoaraged the men in the office building, and it looked aa it they meant violence. It was a senoua time for the officers and.

clerk of tbe debenture company. Some one Mr. Bordeaux, the president, they aay thought of tbe police, and a ooj ntcea out on tne street ior me pnx- pose of having hi ueceete protect the office men. Tbe boy met Chief Gaater on the street, and told him ot the crowd in and before the office. So the eopertn-: tendent hailed Corporal Leroy.

and then Captain Boyle, of the First precinct, and they, with Sergeant Seelborst. and Offi- cers Smith and Dunn, went quickly to the place, and tbelr presence guaranteed safety. After that the aubacrtbere quieted, and the officers of the company asked tbem to return iMenday morning. Then, perhaps, some agreement will be reached to satisfy all parties. But It looks certain that the debenture company will go rnto tbe hand of a re ceiver, ror uencit oi naa oeen fonnd in the of the concern.

Just how it happens that the shortage snouta nave remeinea- aiaaen uu atudy for the officer. But they claim that it la due to the purcnase oz me Union Debenture about six months ago. Tbe story out la tbat while the German-American Debenture Company wss In Its inclplency the Union Debenture Company was in the court, through Attorney General Cunningham, and a deal -was for the purchase of tbe Union Company's business, with Mr. F. J.

Cunningham, then president of the German-American Debenture Company, aa agent. The ssJe was made on the representation tbat tne Union people were doing business to the extent of $13,000 a month. And when the transfer was made the Union people showed a cah credit of or more, which went with the eale. Everything wss figured, and the German-American Company paid a good price for the Still, it was thought a profitable venture, and a good deal could be realised intbe expense fund, since the affairs of both companies could be run by one force of mw the books of the Union Debenture Company never reached the German-American Company, except the register. This contained the names of all the subscribers of-the old company.

If Mr. Cunningham msde demand for tbe book no one here can-ay positively, but when the deal waa closed he resigned aa president. Had the books been had, several argue that tbe deficit would have been shown quicker. After the surrender of Mr. Cunningham aa president, Mr.

J. A. Bordeaux was given the office, and Mr. G. D.

Emanuel remained aa secretary. Some reporta were circulated that the German-American Company waa In a Mi way, and these reached the ears of Mr. Norton Roberts, the attorney. Two or three weeks ago tie auggested to the secretary that the books be checked oyer thoroughly, and upon tbat Investigation the deficit was discovered. The pln statement of the Union Company, as held by some of the officers of the German-American Company- showa tbe deficit of nesrly $30,000.

So Mr. Robert advised that no more money be collected or paid oat. and yesterday morning the order went into effect. That caused the subscribers to hurry to tbe office of the company. The Intention was to close for a day or so and then cover the deficit, and Mr.

Roberta advised tbst tbe debenture company go Into the bands of a receiver. Instead of $10,000 being handed over by the Union people, the, register demand $40,000, and the failure to get the difference saddled. trouble on the German-American Company. Mr. Cunningham, la not" in town, nor are Thomas E.

Woods, L. W. Johnson and H. T. Woods, officers of the Union Company.

Mow tbat tbe -matter has been given publicity every effort will be made to sift the entire matter to the bottom. REMARKABLE CASE. Fifteen or twenty years ago Mr. B. Rice was known to most of tbe then resident of New Orlesns aa an active and aggressive woman of business.
