I Times announces the arrival there
' of P. D. Armour and his party, on
1 their Sontbem tour, and gives ah
| interview with Mr. Armour with
! regard to the report that “he andi
S his associates were about , to build j
throughout the South a dozen or
more large cotton seed oil mills.
Mr. Armour freely corroborated
fiiis report, and gave his reasons
for engaging in a new enterprise
so different from the business in
which his fortune was acquired.
He stated that the use of cotton
seed oil in the manufacture of lard
and hog products had grown, to
such an extent in the last few
years that his establishment alone
consumed cue-fifth of the cotton
oil product of the United States.
Hence cotton seed oil was an im
portant item to his firm. The
American Cotton Oil Trust Com
pany, a gigantic corporation, mod
eled somewhat after the Standard
Oil Company, by a system of con
solidation, had acquired control of
about all the cotton oil mills in the
country, And virtually monopolized
the articles, regulating its output
and fixing its price upon purely
arbitrary'grounds, explained Mr.
Armour. The trust company be
came a difebfc eonipetrtdr of his
firm by the purchase of the large
refinery and packing house of N.
K. Fairbanks & Co., and the es
tablishment of Washington Butch
er’s Sons. “As soon,” said Mr.
Armour, “as the trust company
entered my field as a lard produc
er, I resolved to make myself .in
dependent of them in the matter
of cotton seed oil, and this could ,
be only accomplished by erecting
oil mills at available points
through the South.”
The rfew bit company will or
ganize early next week in Chicago.
Mr. Armour will be represented at
the meeting by his junior partner
and associates. The capital stock
will be about $10,000,000,

been.one of unprecedented and
