ALL GRAND ISLAND IS FEARED COVERED BY GULF WATERS NEW ORLEANS, Aug, 16-Fears for the safety of residents of a fishing settlement and campers from this city who are supposed to be on Grand Island, about eighty miles northwest of Port Eads and the same distance south of here, across Barataria Bay, were expressed in several quarters tonight after an announcement by the local officers of the weather bureau that the island had been reported six feet under water. The island is about ten miles long its widest point.

The highest and a 11 little more than a mile wide at tion is only eight feet above normal high tide. It 1s known that no large boats were in the vicinity when the tropical hurricane struck there Sunday and that the people were not warned of the approaching disturbance, The nearest point where wire communication is available is nearly forty miles away and although efforts were made to send vessels to warn the inhabitants the boats were compelled to put back because of the rough sea. Grand Island is one of a number of low keys separating Barataria Bay from the Gulf and it is supposed here that the inhabitants on the approach of the storm took refuge on higher ground on nearby islands. The local office of the weather bureau today at 2 p. notified shipping offices here that vessels bound east, southeast and south could safely leave port, although the sea probably would remain high for the next twenty -four hours.

Shipping with destinations west of New Orleans was advised to remain in port. Hurricane warnings along the coast as far west as Sabine Pass, Texas, at 5 p. were ordered substituted with southeast -storm warnings. The hurricane warning, however, was continued from Sabine Pass to Brownsville. The French motorship Motricine, from Marseilles, the British steamship Strombus, from Cardiff, the United Fruit liner Marowijne from Port Barrios, and the British steamship Benefactor from Kingston, are twenty-four hours overdue here, but no fear for their safety 1s felt in shipping circles, as none of the vessels, with the pos-' sible exception of the Marowijne, was in the direct path of the hurricane.

The Marowijne is one of the largest vessels in the Central American trade and is considered as having been amply able to weather the storm without any difficulty. Although the velocity of the wind reached -fifty miles an hour at several points along the Louisiana coast, night, little was caused by the collage be ascertained tohigh wind and excessively high tides. HURRICANE IS FELT ALONG ENTIRE COAST Last Bulletin from Galveston at 10 O'clock Says Property Damage Slight. DALLAS, TEXAS, Aug. full effects of the West Indian hurricane which passed through the Yucatan channel yesterday were felt the Texas Gulf Coast late today and tonight, the wind reaching a velocity of seventy miles an hour, Up to a late hour no loss of life or serious damage to property had been reported.

Galveston reported the wall withstanding the force of the wind lashed waters and with the exception of minor damage ag a result of the flooding of the streets on the bay side of the city, the property loss was negligible. Sabine, Texas, reported a wind of sixty-five miles an hour and at Port Arthur the gale reached a velocity of forty-five miles at 10 o'clock. The majority of the residents at Sabine and Sabine Pass, as well as the numerous summer camps and resorts along the coast moved to places of safety last night and early today. At Galveston residents along the beach abandoned their homes and spent the night in the more secure buildings in the business district. The towns of Rollover, Caplen, Patton and Boliver were reported under water.

All of these towns were deserted last night. Late tonight a newspaper correspondent attempted to g0 from Port Arthur to Sabine in an automobile, but was forced to abandon the trip. "The wind would have blown our machine away if we had continued the trip," he declared. ur Sabine Efforts were to futile, charter a sailors boat to refusing reach to make the trip.

REDUCTIONS MADE IN NASHVILLE PAY ROLL NASHVILLE. Aug. John Allison, in whose court cases arising from the city hall dal are pending, today ordered sweeping reductions in the salaries of city officials and employes. At the sane time he allowed the city to borrow $167,000 running expenses. The mayor's salary was reduced from 000 to $4,000 and the City sioners from $5,000 to $4,000.

PARKER TO PROTECT FARMER (Continued From Pare One.) last year when the outbreaking of the great European war found the planters unable to protect themselves in their great crop. He said the situation was materially relieved by the banks and bankers of the South who advanced money to the growers 88 much 'as possible and enabled many of them to hold their crop beyond the period when absolute chaos reigned.

He told of how cotton dropped from fifteen cents per pound to five and Ave and one-half cents per pound and how shrewd speculators with money were enabled to step in and by buying it up taking it away from the producers themselves, had made 1m- meense fortunes through the misfortunes of the growers. He predicted that even worse conditions will prevail this Fall unless the States of the South go to the aid of the grower and guarantee his staple In such manner that it will really become in effect legal tender. Cotton Carried Over. Mr. Parker retold the story of last year's bumper crop, and cited the immense amount of cotton that was carried over into the new cotton year.

He called attention to the fact that cotton fields throughout the South today are white with the fleecy staple and that picking is well under way, insuring an early rushing to the gins and markets of the new crop to be added to the immense surplus carried over. This fact, he said, made the problem of proper and efficient warehousing of cotton the great problem that must be solved first of all. The manner in which the great warehouses in New Orleans were obtained WAS told in detail by Mr. Parker, who said that all of the people of Louisiana were Impressed with the importance of the undertaking, a constitutional amendment seand cured that placed the credit and honor of the State behind the immense bond issue that was floated to obtain the necessary money for the construction of the warehouses. Not a dollar of State's money was needed or called upon.

The credit of the State behind the bonds made the construction of the immense warehouses an assured fact, and the Arst problem of the general situation in Louisiana was solved. Situation of warehouses. Mr. Parker explained that these warehouses face the Mississippi River and are located on the municipallyowned belt line, which gives every railroad entering' New Orleans equal access to all of the terminals, including the warehouse property. These warehouses are erected on a plat of land covering 150 acres, of which 100 acres are given over to There are four "and one-half miles trackage.

of tracks in and around the warehouses, not including the overhead system and the electric system that insures the most economical handling of cotton from the time it reaches the environs of the warehouses. These tracks hold cars with a capacity of 100,000 bales of cotton. The warehouses can handle 2,000,000 bales of cotton. When the cotton reaches the warehouse it is immediately sampled by a sworn officer, and this sample equally, divided. One-half of the sample remains at the warehouse and the other half is deposited with the New Cotton Exchange.

Both samples Orleans are securely sealed. The cotton itself is promptly compressed into a package of 2x2x4, properly marked and labeled and stored ready for shipment. The warehouse being entirely steel and concrete makes possible the lowest insurance in the United States, the cost being 25 cents per $100 worth of cotton per annum. This insurance cost was contrasted by Mr. Parker with the usual rate of 11-2 to 3 per cent.

He figured it out that the new rate made insurance per bale about 10 cents per annum as against the usual cost of cents to $1. Selling Scheme. When the actual cotton itself is sold from the warehouses, stated Mr. Parthe two samples are brought together and turned over to the buyer for comparison, the grade and quality being guaranteed by the New Orleans Cotton Exchange, the Board of Trade and the State of Louisiana. The bale itself is loaded direct into the hold of steamers or other vessels in a neat and compact shape, and not in the ragged, unsightly and repulsive condition that has caused so much complaint from foreign buyers.

No hooks are used to disfigure the cotton in handling, everything is handled by electricity and clamps are used instead of hooks. When the cotton is warehoused, according to Mr. Parker, a certificate is issued that sets forth grade and quality of the staple, with the name of the planter storing it and the actual weight of the cotton itself. This certificate and the facts it states are guaratneed by the Stae of Louisiano, and the cotton producer can take It to any banking institution in the city, State or Nation and use it as security without sacrificing his entire holdings of cotton at panicky prices. Warehouse Control.

The warehouses in New Orleans, he stated, are controlled by five citizens who serve without remuneration. To keep the system out of politics, every person employed at a salary or wages stander $70 per month is forced to civil service examination. The examiners are named by the New Orleans Cotton Exchange and the New Orleans Board of Trade. He called attention to the fact that a young man from Selma, has been selected and installed as superintendent of cotton at the warehouses. Mr.

Parker urged that the Alabama Legislature take active steps toward protecting and assisting the cotton grower. He asked the legislators not to take his word for it, nor the word of tny other man, but to appoint its own committee from its ablest members, preferably those skeptical of the situation, and to send this committee to New Orleans to see and learn for itself what has been accomplished and how it was done. He said Alabama's credit is big enough and solid enough to do that for the cotton crop and the cotton producers what Louisiana did. and he believed that Alabama would be the Arst State to follow LouIsiana in doing that which is needful for the protection of the South's great staple. Embargo Attacked.

Just before closing, Mr. Parker attacked the embargo placed upon cotton. He said cotton is a great staple that is raised and produced by free men in America, and added that it is little short of a crime to deny free men to ship their products anywhere the world to other free men. He believed the representatives of the na. tion at Washington would recognize the necesisty of doing that which will prevent discrimination against American products.

Mr Parker was liberally applauded during his address and given an ovation when he concluded. He talked personally with of the bers of the Legislature later In connection with the warehouse situation. He returned to his home In New Orleans last night, SPOTLIGHT TURNED UPON EXECUTIVE SESSIONS OF STATE AND COUNTY BOARDS a bill which turns the After passing spotlight of publicity upon all sessions of State, county and municipal boards, and other bodies, and afcommissions another bill which will ter passing hereafter make any small boy or other who may steal watermelons persons or sugar cane guilty of petit larceny, the House closed its thirty-second legislative day with a tedious night session at which a large number of of minor importance were measures adopted. last pight's session the most inAt teresting feature came up when Representative Green, of Dallas, introduced the Senate bill which prohibits executive sessions of State, county and municipal boards and commisisons which disburse public funds. This bill was amended by striking out the sections which applied to the Board of Trustees of educational institutions and the Board of Trustees of the Alabama Insane Hospital Several Sharp Tilts.

Representative John, of Dallas, offered the amendment striking out the section applying to the board of trustees of the Insane hospital. Several sharp tilts ensued between Representative John on one side and Representatives Merritt, Green and Welch on the other. Mr. Merritt asked Mr. John a question concerning contracts let at executive sessions of the board.

"It is curious that men who know nothing about it, will question the veracity and honor of men who do know something about things," was the sharp reply of Representative John. He then stated that no such contracts were let during executive sessions of the board. Mr. Green then raised a question concerning certain fees paid in reference to sales of lands owned by the State. "Every record of that transaction is public property," replied Mr.

John." And furthermore such an insinuation is an outrageous shame" After two amendments had been offered by Mr. John and Representative Fite, of Tuscaloosa, the bill was adopted. Representative Grayson, of Madison, offered an amendment striking out the county boards of revenue, but this amendment was defeated. Pay Provided For. One measure went through with greased wheels and without any opposition.

This was a bill providing for an appropriation of $50,000 to pay the per diem and mileage of the members of the Alabama Legislature. Yesterday afternoon the House passed Representative Shapiro's bill which prohibits the publications of false or misleading advertisements and, requires newspapers to print the word "advertisement" under all articles of an advertising nature. This bill prevents the advertising of "bankrupt sales" when there no bankrupt and "fire sales" when there is no fire. Representative Hubbard's bill providing for an appropriation for the National Guard of the State was passed. The John bill providing that all money belonging to the State shall be paid into the State treasury was pass- ed.

John Bill Passed. The John bill amending the section of the code relating to the of trustees of the Alabama insane hospital was passed after several amendment were offered. Representative Wittier called up a bill to fix the time and place for holding mass meetings, beat meetings and other meetings of the voters of political parties for the purpose of nominating candidates for public office are to be voted on in a general election. "This bill will prevent Republicans from voting in Democratic primaries," explained Mr. Wittmier.

The bill passed. About twenty-five or thirty bills of little importance were called up and passed during the day. The clerks were kept busy calling the rolls and much time was taken up in the disposition of purely routine affairs. Following are the bills that passed: H. 126, by Mr.
