A number of the members of the New
| York Cotton K'flange were lnttrv|i*w"l,
1 • day or two .go. rrap* tine the Cotton
; Growers* Protective A-socl.itlon Mo<*t of
! those who consented to talk on the stile
! Jcct expressed the opinion that the as
sociation would < ome to nothing Th* y
.l I that an effort had been m*d- a num
ber of tlm*s within the last twenty y*ars
to form combinations of cotton grow-r*
for the purpose of holding hack cotton
and thus controlling the price of It. and
that practically nothing had been ac
• ompilshed.
According to their view there are too
many cotton growers and too many in
terna*# ron<>m*d in the cotton crop to
|m rmit of the success of any effort to
control the price of eotton by holding It
ir< warehouses nr by any other tu'-it :• in
the nrst place It would h* UnporMble to
g t a majority of the cotton growers In
to th com lunation. and in the *e< otd
lfar** u would la* h dlffi ill matter to get
those who entered the com hi nation to
hold eotton whet* they thought the time
h.d coma to >* II it. When th price m*
low many would sell, thinking the price
would go lower, and when It was high
many would refuse to sell hoping tha
price would go still higher
Home members of the exchange, how
ever. xt>rejued the opinion that the as
sociation was a good thing for the cotton
farmers and that In the course of time
there would be warehouses all over the*
• niton section, in which cotton would be
stored and negotiable certificate* Issued
on It. just is there * • warehouses In the
s>l n* for the storage of wheat on
which warehouse certificates are Issued
They ex'tressed the belief that It would
be possible for tha <ntton glowers to on
trol the price of cotton to a certain ex
tent. Nothing, they said, could be Infer
red from what the association has done
and ia doing this year, because conditions
In th* cotton world this season are ab
normal The cotton growers ar getting
a great deal more for their cotton than
th* y expo t. and to get when they plantod,
and there is no reason why they should
hdid back cotton If. however, the crop
was large and the price low. cotton grow*
*rs would be anxious to encourage the
holding back of cotton, so that by the
judltdoux marketing of It that Is,
distributing *be sale of It throughout th#
entire season—a better price would be ob
tained.
The Cotton Growers Protective Associa
tion Is not likely to get n fair trial until
a season of low priced cotton come*.
From present indication* such a season
need not be expected for at least two
years. Th#* present crop is admitted to he
a small one, and the world could and
would take a big crop next season at a
price that would be very remunerative to
the grower*.

Senator Tillman, who I* making speech
