Oi the three most, important cot*
It.n-constiui ,ig states. North Caro-
lina shews a loss cl 12 per cent in
the consumption of cotton in the
cotton year 1910, as compared with
IIP*!), South Carolina a loss of in
per cent and Massachusetts a loss of
’ per cent. Georgia’, which ranks'
fourth in consumption, shows a loss
of S per cent.

which have been compiled from re-
turns of manufacturers for the cen-

Massachusetts exceeds every oth-
er state in the number of cotton
spindles having 9,835,610 or 21 per
cent of the total for the countr>.
South Carolina rooks second, with
92,387, or 13 per cent, and
North Carolina third, with 8,124.-
t() or 11 per cent. Rhode Island
bus fourth place, Georgia fifth, New
Hampshire sixth. Connecticut sev-
cnDt, New York eighth and Main0
ninth. No other state reimrts as
many as a million spindles.
The marked development since
I 880 of the. cotton-manufacturing;
industry in the cotton-growing
states is clearly seen when the fig-
ures for cotton ci.usumpticii for
1909 are considered since that year
was a more prosperous one for the
industry than 191-0. During the nine
years ending with 1909. the con-
sumption in those states increased
fis per cent while in the New Eng-
land states it increased only 12
per cent and in all other states 22
per cent. The consumption of cot-
ton for the year ending August 21.
1909, in the cotton-growing states
amounted to 19 per cent of the to-
tal for ilto country, compared with
II per cent for the New England
states and 10 per cent for all other
states. For the year ending August
21, 1910, the proportion for the
gotfon-growing states was 18 per
cent, for the New England states i2
per eeiiT*'ani1 for all other states 10
per ccnl. During Hie past year the
increase, in the number of spindles
in the cotton-growing states has
been 2.0 per rent, compared with
2.2 per cent from 1908 to 1909. The
increase in the New England stales
from 1909 to 191 <» was 3.2 per
cent, rommpared with 1.7 per cent
from 1908 to 1909.
Large Decrease in Exports.
An interesting illustration of the
manner in which foreign countries
have suffered during the past year,
from the short supply of American
cotton is presented by the statistics
of exports, which, for the year cov-
ered by tHe present report, show a
decrease of 2,28 1,99(1 bales, or 20
per cent, from the previous year,
smaller than for any year since that
ending August, 81, 1965.
About 8 1 per cent of all the cotton
exported during the year ending Au-
gust, 81, 1901, is credited to ports
within tho cotton-growing states,
only 19 per cent having been ex-
ported from ports outside of these
states. Tlie exports from Galveston,
New Orleans and Savannah .repre-
sented about two-thirds of the. total,
while those from Galveston alone
amounted to more than one-third.
The report also discloses a no-
ticeable t cTange in the distribution
of the export trade since 1880. At
"""*m
Austin. Tex., Jan. 2! The steam
roller of the pros swept sidewise*
th tough tile senate chamber at I
P. m. as Senator Gofer predicted it
would. The pro senators adopted an
addition to the* rule-providing that
thd senate shall elect i*s committees
on senatorial, representative and
congressional reapportionment, and
then adopted the rules as amended,
this action carrying with it the sev-
eral amendments which were adopt-
ed last week. The antis put up a
strong fight against the acts, but
Jest, declating, however, in the end
that the steam poller had not hurt
them, as they had taken refuge in
friendly Crevices. I
The senate is now fully organized,
except for the appointment of three
committees, which the senate is to
elect.
When the amendment had been
jKlcpted providing that these com-
mittees should he elected by the sen-
ate Lieut. Gov. •Davidson dissolved
tite thirty-two other committees
which he had previously appointed,
saying that the vote just taken evi-
denced a leek of confidence in bin*..
as the anti senators had previously
asserted during the progress of the
debate.
This the pro senators denied.
Moreover, they denied the right of
*hL .chftir *o '.UsT.oJyC..U* *• committees,
■lying that be bad -anointed them
as the agent of the senate and could
not - dissolve them e xcept by*its con-
sent They asserted in this connec-
tion that in providing for the elec-
tion rather the appointment of
three apportionment committees
they were within their rights and
cited tlie determination of the dem-
ocratic caucus for the next federal
house of representatives to provide
a committee for the creation of the
committees of that body. They said
that in this, case they were sifnply
providing for tlie creation of three
committees and for the senate to
eject the members of same.
it should be explained in this
connection that I i at. Gov. David-
son had not appoint' *1 any commit-
tees cn aiipnrtionri"iit ft r the rea-
son that the senate had not author-
ized the creation t f such commit-
tees.
The lieutenant governor stood
pat, insisting that the committees
w< re dissolved, because tlie senate,
bv its vote, bud expressed a lack of
confidence in him. L veral pro sen-
ate rs argued that this was not so.
In tiie end they offered a motion to
confirm the appointment of the tliir
ty-two committees as previously
made by the lieutenant governor,
and this was unanimously adopted,
whereupon Lieut. Gov. Davidson
thanked the senate for its expression
of confidence.
Tlie pros new lmvo the whin
hand, in so far ns re framing of
apportionment bills is concerned,
but they id eclat"* tin intend to use
it mercifully: that they are willing
to give the antis reuresentation on
the* committees In the ratio of about
four antis to live pros.

Kavla, Ok., Jan. 24.—-A rich min-
eral field lias been opened at Itavia.
Geld, silver, copper, lead, zinc and
platinum are being mined in pay-
ing quantities. Many assays have
been made from a number of shafts
at a shallow depth. Fifteen shafts
art* now being sunk in the field
and mineral men from all parts of
tlie United Stales are on the ground
looking for locations.
Tlie Capital mine, owned liy Bal-
lard Jfe Smith, just east of the cor-
poration, lias been driven to a depth
of sixty-five feet. ’File lead is twen-
ty-one feet wide and both walls in
place. Ore now averages $29' per
ton. The Pandora mine, owned by
the same parties, just south of the
Capital, is about thirty feet deep
and tho first assay from this mine
gives gold, silver and platinum
values of $28 per ton. The second
assay gives $85 per ton.
Williamson A- items have a lead
and zinc assay of $*i2' per ton from
a 'mine two miles west of town.
Their Monarch mine, also in the
same section, is making a gold as-
say of $80.90 three feet below the
surface. ,
Many parties are sinking shafts,
but refuse to make public the as-
says. Real estate has more than
tripled in .price in the last thirty
days and is changing hands rapidly.
Some vacant business houses are
being filled with beds to accommo-
date tluse coming in, hotels being
entirely inadequate.
The Coffeyville Mining Company
:s sinking two shafts just north of
town, which are said to be very rich
in gold and copper.
Two mining outfits are expected
tc be here within" the next ten days
with core drills and a movement
is now being advanced for the erec-
tion of a smelter,

Curiosity Over New Strauss Opera
Dresden, Jan. 2 1. Curiosity is
keen over Richard Strauss' new op-
era, "Dor Rosenkavallier," which is
to be given its initial performance
tomorrow night at the iioyj^ Dres-
den opera. Though the details have
been guarded carefully from the
public it is learned that the or-
chestra score, while not so intricate
or heavy as that of “Elektra," or
“Salome," is exceedingly brilliant.
Critics who were privileged to at-
tend the rehearsals pronounce the
work a marvel of melody and sim-
plicity. *
