Montgomery. Ala., 8#pt. 26.—The
Alabama t'otton A*»oclatlon, through
many of It* mem bar*, yesterday sub
scribed $10,180 toward the plan to
finance u lio.ooo.ooo corporation to take
Charge of the surplus and weak cotton.
Thia Is only the beginning and the sub
scription was pledged in less than half
an hour.
President Harvte Jordan was to have
been present, but was detained at
home. E. D. Smith, president of the
South Carolina association and gen-
oral organiser of the Southern associa
tion, and Congressman J. T. Hellin
made speeches. It was one of the most
enthusiastic meetings ever held by the
association.
Mr. Smith said that India could not
compete with the South In raising cot
ton. He said there was only one place
where the fine staple of the South could
be raised, and that was In a small place
In Africa, but by the time that was
made a producing country the cotton
question will have been settled.
Congressman J. T. Heflin stated that
he had presented a bill in congress
to appropriate $50,000 to have agents
In China to put the American cotton
on the market there. He said he did
not get the $50,000, but did get $20,000,
and only a few days ago received a
letter from Secretary Wilson, of the
agricultural \department, stating that
these agents bad been employed. He
said he was going to Introduce another
bill in congress asking for the appro
priation of $50,000 more.
Congressman Heflin said he had in
troduced a bill in congress to do away
with the bucket shops and to make it
punishable by a flne of $10,000 and im-

Indignant because Mayor Dobbs had
a cate made against Captain Fred Mor
ris, of the Marietta company, because
a riot call was turned In Saturday
night to assemble the men for service
In Atlanta, it la said that the Marietta
company will ask to bs mustered out
of service.
When the call came from Atlanta
Saturday night for the Marietta com
pany, Captain Morris had the riot call
rung In order to get his men together
quickly. This was dons In Rome, and
probably other places, but the authori
ties made no objection, because they
realised the gravity of the situation.
Mayor Dobbs, however, determined to
make a case against Captain Morris,

and did so. Officers of the adjutant
general's office are severe in ceneuring
the mayor for this action.
They say that Captain -Morris acted
properly In doing as he did, and that
he ought to be commended, instead of
censured. The Marietta company did

Asheville, N. C., Sept. 2*.—It has
Just leaked out here that pretty Callo
Polntevent, the sister-in-law of the New
Orleans millionaire cotton merchant,
who ran away and married Baron
Frederick von Gordon Scolied, was well
known In Asheville. She has visited
here frequently. The fact also leaked
out that the family seriously objected
to the match.
Miss Polntevent met the baron, i
German, in New Orleans, and he pro
posed to her th* following day. She
consulted her brother about the match,
and he thereupon told her brother that
he knew he came to America for the
express purpose of marrying an Amer
ican heiress, and also gave him warn
ing that he must leave his sister alone.
The baron obeyed Instructions, pre
sumably. and nothing more was heard
of him until he put In his appearance
at the country home of Miss Potnte-
vent's sister, Mrs. Frank Haynes, near
Flat Rock, this state. He and the
young woman eloped and went to Hen
dersonville, where they were married,
and then they hurried off to New York.
The brother of the young woman, tt la
said, followed them, and after he ar
rived at New York he made great
effort to locate the couple. He em
ployed Pinkerton detectives to help
him In the trace, but nothing could be
learned until Friday, w hen It was found
the couple had departed on the ocean
liner Graf Waldersee for Hamburg.
