For one thing the Houth Americana want from eight to ten months' time, often more; has no arrangements to give. So America must not place too much on the pros pective trade with the slater republics below the belt. England will supply them aa England has. British ship ping Is pnharnpered and British cot ton Industries are not affected to the extent they are In Germany anil France. England expects to import at. least fifty per cent of her usual importations of raw cotton from us. What Mr. Hickman Says. Mr. T. I. Hickman, president of the American Cotton Manufacturers’ As sociation, numbering 700 members arid probably controlling 75 per cent of the Kouthern mills and 10 per cent of those of New England—when asked v/hat he thought about the prospects for business for the cotton millet, es pecially In reference to the present state of affairs In Europe, says "that If the seas cap he kept open, he thinks there is no doubt hut that the Ameri can cotton manufacturers will be very busy, not only In supplying the ex port markets, hut especially In look ing after the American markets, which will undoubtedly take up a very much larger percentage of home products than ever before. This Is owing to the fact that there will he no Importation of fine goods Into this country from Germany and France, which countries have sent ua enor mous quantities of goods In past years, particularly since the new tariff went Into effect. For this latter rea son, our Imports have Increased at the rate of a million dollars a month for the past twelve months." The United Slates has never im ported cotton goods to any extent from England, so that the competi tion which will still exist there, through England’s mastery of the sea and consequent ability to ship, will not Interfere with American mills. The price of cotton goods Is bound to go up and stay up, which with the In evitable low price of cotton, will bring In dividends from mills that had been given up as lost. ll Is predicted that if the European war lists, at the end of three mnnthd the American mill owners will wlsn' ihey could keep open nnd running day ami night, and Sunday, too.
