PROTESTS MADE 111 COTTON OIL * Big Southern Interests in Arms Against British Intent to In terfere With Cargoes in Neutral Ships. Washington.— Numerous inquiries tj the state department over the expor tation of cotton seed oil brought out from officials today the staement that to their knowledge no interference with cotton seed oil shipments had been made by Great Britain. One shipment of cotton seed cake to Holland was seized by British ships but upon investigation the shipment was released by the British govern ment and the explanation made that it would not Interfere with such ship ments to neutral governments. The department has been Informed that the Holland-Amertcan line has refused to accept cotton eeed oil for shipment to Holland unless the ship ment Is consigned to the Dutch gov ernment. That action Is regarded as an ultra precaution. The Dutch gov ernment has notified the United States that it knows nothing about the line's action, over which It has no super vision. Difficulty In the way of exporting the oil Is regarded at the department as being not a hostile action on the part of foreign governments so much as handicaps In getting ships willing to transport It. U. 8. CONSUL FLED. Washington. —Henry W.

Paris. 6:59 a. m.—ln contrast to the rapidity with which the Germans have conducted their campaign against Ant werp, the tide of battle is flowing slow ly in certain parts of France. The en gagements in the Woevro district, ac cording to statements of wounded sol ' diers who have been brought back from that territory, continue to take the form of a slow and steady siege. In Two Lines. German trenches in the Woevre dis trict have been constructed in two lines, one behind the other. The outer most is furnished with quick firing guns with outposts constantly on guard. In the meantime the larger de tachments shelter themselves in the second line. These trenches are large and comparatively comfortable and at intervals they broaden out into sub terranean restrooms In which the troops may sleep in comparative se curity. The first line may be reached from the second through underground passages. Drainage. The allies have just installed a sys tem of drainage in their trenches which up to the present time has been very successful. Drainage is a most nec essary precaution ns many of tlie troops arc suffering from inflammatory rheumatism.

BIG MILLING CO. BUYS COTTON AND WILL USE COTTON BAGS. T/fUisvllle, Ky, Oct. 2, 1914 Mr. E G. Melvin. Cr Chas. E. Danner Co., Beaufort, 8. C. Dear Sir: “BUY A BABE.” We are pleased to acknowledge your favor of Sept. 18th and our only reasoon for not making more prompt acknowledgment was wholly because of our desire to thoroughly review the situation and reach a definite conclusioon as how best to proceed. We presented the matter to our board of directors, and we are most happy to he able to advise you, as well «s our many other friends who are Interested in this movement, that our hoard of di rectors have seen fit to make an appropriation providing for the purchase of a limited number of bales. As you can readily under stand, in disbursing this amount, it is our earnest desire to benefit the greatest number possible, and with this Idea in view we have concluded to make each Individ ual purchase for not more than ora bale. We are now ready to proceed In this direction and would be great ly favored If you would advise us regarding the following particu lars: We conclude this cotton will be guaranteed to class middling grade. We understand the price Is to ho 10c per pound and that an average bale will represent a value of * about ISO.OO. We further understand that the total warehouse storage charge be not more than 15c. per bale month until sold. Please advise us with reference to Insurance. We are not sure whether we ourselves will be call ed upon to Insure, or whether the warehouse receipt Includes this protection. We desire to assure all our friends who are Interested that wo will bend every effort possible looking toward the fullest co operation with the greatest good to the greatest number. In making our purchases we wish to have definite assurance that they include only "distress cotton and not In any way be come Involved in cotton held by speculators who have bought at a price under 10c. to a more or less degree. For some little time we have been exploiting the use of cotton hags Instead of Jute bags and to quite a satisfactory degree we have thus far been successful. We In tend to pursue this policy In this particular and we are very hopeful that concerted action along this line will he productive of good re sults. Yours very truly, Washburn-Crossby Milling Co. By L. C. L. BUNK IN FOG. Boston, —The schooner Alma K. A. Holmes of Philadelphia bound from Norfolk to Salem with coal, was run down and sunk off Marblehead In a fog today by the passenger steamer Belfast, bound in from Bangor, Maine. The crew were rescued THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. HMD UIHT IS. HON mu Will Go to Warrenton on Mon day to Play the Warrenton High School Game of Foot ball. The Richmond Academy football will Journey down to Warrenton Monday and take on the Warrenton High School aggregation. Reports from Warrenton are to the effect that the team just about matches the local prep eleven in weight and that it pos sesses all sorts of speed. That it must be a good team is evidenced by the fact that on last Monday, the much heavier Tenth District Aggie bunch was taken into camp to the tune of 13 to 0. It is most likely that both teams use the same style of play which will cause the result of the game to hinge upon the thor oughness with which this style of play has been drilled. The Warrenton boys come here for a return game next Friday, this being the first game on the home schedule of the academy. CHANCES GOOD. Willie—Why don't you have It charged ?
