Callahan, through a I mem- psita view from those of tife association. He addressed the, committee first, and said the men ought to show fully and conclusively where the privilege saked for wojld be a detriment. He explained that, as be understood It, it was the intention of the cotton press to bring about 85,000 bales of cotton to the press by this -means that would never resell here otherwise, but. Instead, wuld go late the railroad yard In cars and-- be handled there, and onlv un skilled labor would get the handling of ic xx cueu uui me cotton was get v. ting away from here fast; there Is a big snonater- at South port and another one going up at Port Chalmette.

and these monsters are rulltng against the middle, and New Orleans is the mid dle. The labor unions would not get anything from Soutbport, neither would they benefit from Port Chalmette. He contended in this ease it waa a fight to get some of the cotton that the rail- roaa is now nanaung, ana wanted the tabor dc en to be assured that he had tbr Interests at heart moat, because he thought he would be at work With them the present winter. Mr. -r.

uatt; ior tne: samplers and weighers, out ud a vigorous Protest, and cited the manner in which labor here wowa oe nun oj xa traca into tne ur-leans press, all of which, was told be- I fore. Alexander Paul, a colored man. reDre- sentlnr Cotton Yardmen No. 2. made the point that the most powerful organization in the world was destroyed by the railroads: that: the cotton press owners, after having obtained the Switch privilege tney ask ior here, could play into the bands of the railroads.

The first cotton press getting a switch others would ask for the same privilege, and they could hardly be refused. Then the railroads could eocne along and make offers to the cotton press owners, and tne next uuns; wuum oe tnat tney-would have one big warehouse on the river front; (hat la, 'they would own all of the cotton presses and- use them as warehouses, and then good-by to organised noor. iw woota come ana less money would circulate among. the labor ing men. -i, -v-.

Another of the labor representatives said that the object in getting the witch track will be to have -the. cotton hauled to. the ores bv can1 simI out of the press--the same way, thus de- riving the teamsters and loaders of any and ling. The press, he argued. had oaaes more man it could Handle last year and 4ad to warehouse it else where.

'-J Mr. Liorcn, autnor or the ordinance, endeavored to assure the men that the cotton press owners would keep every 1.W.- i i promise made to them. His srgumen Xiad no effect- Mr. Kane aaked for various points of Information, and obtained them. The men made a firm stand on their opinions.

Tne Schools and School Teaekers. The announcement made In yesterday's Picayune that 'be public schools will not open until Monday next was received with general delight by teachers: and puplla yesterday. The extreme heat of the past few days has been very enervating, making every one feel a disinclination to work, and it waa a wise action on the part of Superintendent Easton to defer the opening of the session to a coolei period. Mothers also balled the postponement of the opening day, being loath to send their children Into the warm, oppressive air of the schoolroom while the heat continues. The meeting of the principals and teachers which was to have taken place today has also been postponed, the principals of the schools being requested to meet In the superintendent's office next Thursday and the teachers of the first grade on Friday.

A competitive examination of applicants for positions In the public schools has also been called for the first week In October.
