In session at Hot Springs, Ark., and that flxed by the National Farmers' Educational and Co-operative Union, which Is meeting at Texarkana, Ark.

The committee urges all producers of cotton not to sell the staple at a figure leas than the price of production. Membera of the Farmers' Union declare they will stand pat for 11 cents. 10 CENTS FIXED AS COTTON PRICE Hot Springs, Ark., Sept. $.—That no cotton be sold during th* present year for less than 10 cents a pound, was the recommendation made by the executive committee of the Southern Cotton Aseodatlon, In seselon here. Resolutions were adopted late yester day afternoon urging all members of the' association and producers of the staple In the South to stick to this minimum prlee. The committee made no effort to estimate the present crop, asserting that it Is now In a state of deteriora tion. The members say, however, that they are satisfied the current estimate II not be realised, it Is understood that when the Axing of the minimum price was considered In executive ses sion there were those who favored standing out for 12 cents. The conser vative element, however, stood for 10 cents and this was adopted. Resolution* Adopted. Following this action the committee prepared resolution* In the shape of an addrees to the public. These resolu tions, signed by Walter Clark, chair man; E. D. Smith, J. A. Brown, J. C. Hickey and F. A. Maxwell, follow: "inasmuch as we, the cotton grow ers of the South, know that'there haa been great deterioration In the cotton crop since August 16, and “Whereas, The consensus of opinion of the members of this committee Is that the deterioration Is still going on, wo deem It unwise to make an esti mate of the crop at Hit* time. We are satisfied that the crop will not be as large a* the current estimate. Are Urged to Hold. “We therefore suggest and urge upon our members and producers throughout the South not to sell their cotton at a Agure leas than the cost of production. “Owing to the high price of the cost of living and scarcity of labor, we feel. In order for the farmer who raises cot ton to live, feed and clothe himself and family and set aside a small'pittance for the improvement of his farm. It Is necessary that cotton should riot be sold below the bread and meat line, which Is 10 cents. In Axing 10 cents per pound as the limit below which It should not be eold, we have no reference to the crop or any Immediate condition. "Market 8lowly.” We call upon all Southern Interests to aid In maintaining for all time this all FARMERS’ UNION WILL STAND PAT Texarkana, Ark., Sept. 8.—"We will stick for 11 cents, The deterioration of the general condition of cotton during the last two weeks Is sufficient evi dence to prove that the union has not placed the price too high.” ' In theae word* President Duck worth, of the National Farmers’ Edu cational and Co-operative Union, which Is In session here, announced, that the union will stand pat on the minimum price for cotton Axed by It. From thla It Is evident the union takes Issue with the Southern Cotton Asso ciation’s executive commlttoe, which, during Its session yesterday afternoon at Hot Springs, declared for a mini mum Agure of 10 cents.

The Incident resulted In Internation al correspondence, port of which con sisted of a message from Washington to the president of Honduras that Honduras would be held responsible for the life of the surgeon. It all grew out of the surgeon diag nosing a case of yellow fever at I-ncet- ha. which had heretofore been Immune. When the laicelba board of health declared the casea were not yellow fever, the Inhabitants became highly wrought up. Dr. Robertson was at tacked violently by the local newspa per;! and received anonymous tellers threatening him with death. American Consul Wood was absent from Lacelba. but Dr. Virgil Reynolds, the vice coneul, who agreed with Dr. Robertson’* dlagnosle, determined to protect the surgeon. He called on the commandant, but Ucnerul Padilla de clared he could not guarantee l”r. Itobertson protection.

Gen eral Mlchener ie a Republican, but paid a high compliment to Hoke Smith. At the Macon convention Colonel Robert L. Berner, Hoke Smith’s law partner, started a storm of cheering by practically placing Mr. Smith forward as the South’s candidate for the presi dency, when the time was ripe for this section to name the man. Mr. Smlth’a overwhelming victory In Georgia and hla great Aght on a reform platform has made him a potential Ag- ure throughout the union.
