"In other words, the banks art loan

"And If the New Yoik state superin

Joseph H. Hoadley. mechanic. In
ventor. millionaire ccglne builder. Iron
and steel king, spoke m this manner of
the cotton situation In New York. The
words nunp~from th»- mrmttr of «-tnh-
llonalre and one who. in addition to th
millions of his own. controls lens of
millions of the money or other indus
trial kings. (
Hoadley a Mechanic.
In an Interesting Interview with a
Georgian reporter at the Pled man; >|r.
Hoadley talked freely about the New
York Cotton Exchange, Its methodl
the cotton crop nnd h*»w he ever cairn*
to pay any attention to It. He soys he
la not a cotton speculator. Neither s
he a Wall street speculator of any kind.
He is a mechanic w ho can run a loco
motive. who has Invented automatic
ut-off engines, and who builds then
by the hundreds.
"One of the paper-*. • said Mr. Hoa.l-
ley, "spoke of me as a Wall street cot
ton speculator, d am a manufacturer
not a speculator. I build engines and"
locomotives and lately f bought the
Alabama c\m»oTtdat"d < oal nnd Iron
Company. I have a property there
worth fifty millions nnd naturally 1
want to boost a section «.f the country
where I expert to amke some money,
and which 1 Intend to develop. I acci
dentally got Into some cottou specula
tion with Dan Sullv. I got Into It to
h«*lp Win out. !t*s n long story why 1
helped him. Bui T~*7T«T. tie dirt me n
favor oner nnd when he got In a hole
I putted Wm out.” ...
Mr. Hoadley then told of his short
experience in cotton speculation and
how that led him to know the methods
employed by the New York Cotton Ex
change.
"Borne of the metnods of the New
York Cotton Exchange are shady.
There are men In there, however, who
ure above reproarh; men who would
not stoop to do a dishonorable act. but
tbe exchange Is run by a clique and
ibis clique Is composed of men running
the exchnnge for their personal profit.
"In my engine business I was brought
Into contact with the cotton mills of
thr Month Most of the mills In the
country have engines In them that I
built. Ik did not take me long to see
that the prosperity of the South and of
the country depended upon the cotton
and Its price. From tny short expe
rience In the cotton exchange specula

"What I am saying is going to limit*
me hundrada of anomies up there. But
tbey can't hurt me. 1 make Bluff to sell.
I don't ITva like a vulture on the pro
ducers of the country - And if my mil
lions are swapt away. I am a mechanic
and If there are millionaires left In the
country I will soon be one again."
Few people In the South who have
heard Mr. Hoadley know that he Is a
manufacturer Most ixxiple think of
him and Wall street nnd cotton specu
lation at the same time. Yet he says
he doesn't dip Into Wall street and
doesn't dabble In cotton speculation
Educated u* a mechanical engineer.
Mr. Hoadley Invented Improvements to
cut-off engines, made money nnd
bought out the Green-Wheelork En
gine Works and the Corliss Engine
Works at Providence, R. L
He later acquired other eiigidd w olTtr
and was the prim.* mover in the or

"We know what has k«pi the price
of cotton down. It Is the methods em
ployed by the cotton exchange In New
York with Its 100.000 bales of property
cotton stored away there. Tbe problem
Is; How shall we remedy the matter?
"Well, the remedy Is coming when
the secretary of the treasury makes

The ordinance by Alderman Peters,
providing for a second primary elec
tion whan no candidate gets a major
ity In the first. thff&>rdtnance by Al
derman Key prohibiting the charge of
more than 1 cent for standing room In
a street car, and the annual apportion
ment sheet were the principal matters
“ that came before rouncil at~thc post-
poned aeaalon Thursday.
The apportionment sheet, as made
out-by tbs lUuuuut —committee, was
adopted without opposition ar.d prac
tically without discussion. Alderman
Peters* ordinance was referred to the
committee on ordinances and legisla
tion and the city attorney. Aldennan
Kay's ordinance was referred to the
committee on freight rates and trans
portation.
The astern of the ordinance by Al
derman Peters Is that It Is "the sense
of the body" thut there should be a
second-election, and that the ordinance
committee and the city attorney look
Into tha maitcr. and report the best
method of accomplishing this purpose.
Alderman Key's ordinance provides
that no parson, or company owning or
operating a street car In Atlanta be
allow** to charge a passenger more
than 1 cent fare, when the passenger
Is not provided with a reasonable seat.
Alderman K« v continued his light
for higher pay for the patrolmen and
for the teachers by Introducing two
ordinances, one providing that patrol-
men be paid $75 per month, and ser
geants $88, and the other providing that
no teacher be paid less than $5».
Alderman Key began the light for
r rtments of the city
the raises recom
mended by the finance committee and
adopted by council, be considers only a
partial victory.
