Newport News -as a Location.
There Is probably no bettor location in the United States for a cotton mill than
NewportNews. 1 he population of the town Is about 10.00, while atHampton and
surrounding points there are about 10 0 more, thus f nrntshlng an abundant sup
ply of good oporntfres. "Newport Nows bemt one of the largest coal shipping

West Irginla coal can be laid down "at Itss" than SIM a ton against $3.60 a ton
w hich Is paid by mauy of the most successful mills in North Carolina. Its location
furnishes abundant transportation facilities by which to draw cotton by water from
all Southern points, as woll as for shipment of the finished product to any part of
tbe world. "
An OpportunityforSmalI Investors.
Heretofore small investors have not generally been able to share In the large
profits made by cotton mills ; building associations-and savings banks have been
tneir only means lor accumulating savings. By
thirsystem, so successfully introduced into the
boutn, everyone who can lay aside even 900 a
month can become a stockholder in a cotton

Opinions of Leading Financial Men
on Cotton Milling in the South.
W. a Witbam. of Atlanta, who is president of twelre banks In Georgia and
Alabama: "Ilio average net earnings of several cotton mills I am acquainted with
will run to about 14 per cent. 1 bellove a cotton mill, with a fair working
capital, well managed, will make from 3Mto,33 percent- I, know of one whlcH
enrred 10 percent net in 1391. We advance moner on cotton mill stock, cotton
goods in storage, at a less rate than on any other collateral."
A. J. James, President of the Bank of Laurlnburg, Lanrlnburg, N. C: "There
aro eight milt? in this county. The protlt during thlsjear in ths cotton mills bust
ne s has boen and is stIU very large; tnat Is, it is from 10 to 33 per cent. I know of
nothing else in our section tnat pays so large a profit."
J. O Khea, Cashier City National Hank, t1rimn,Ga: -The Griffin Hanufactur
leg Company in 1SS7 paid a G per cent, dividend; in 1833, 10 per cent; and has
steadily paid 10 per cent, dividends ever since, and still carries a surplus of over 80
percent, added to its capital out of its earnings. In 188 J the Klncald Mill was or
ganized and put in operation. In ISn it itatd G per cent.; in 1893, 7 per cent.;
in 1S93, a per cent ; in la91, it) per cent; and In 1S93 it has so far paid 10 per cent."
V C and Lanier, Bankers, West Point, Ga.. who also control cotton
mills with an aggregate investment of about .$1,003,000 : Ths capital stock
of our mills aggregates $1,000,000. Our pay rolls aggregats" $230,000, and about
$100 U00 aro paid out to stockholders, besides laying up a surplus for extensions."
L, C Ilavne, president National Bank of Augusta, Augusta, Ga.: "Cotton man
ufacturing in the South has always proven satisfactory as a paying Industry,, and
from the establishment of the first cotton factorytathe present time ths mills havs
not only proven the wisdom of Investors, but niY.4amozistra.ted the Inevitable
conclusion that no character of Investment Is caf sr, and few, If any. are snore
profitable."

The excise board has Issued a notice to
the effect that no applications for trans
fer of liquor license for the current ear
endiujr Octobtr 31 will be received or con
sidered, except the same shall be filed on or
before tbe luth Instant.
The object of the board Is doubtless to re
duce to the minimum the rush that Is sure
to come with the openlug'of the new licence
ear, and It le considered that for lbj few
days renuinluc there Is no necessity for
a change In proprietorship that cannot as
well be met after the new year tKirins.
The order Is, however, more far-rtachiog
than that, ror It preeuts the sale of a

offenses called criminal, but certain acts

LIMIT OF CONFINEMENT.
Replying to the argument that an officer
Is entitled to know the charges upon
which he Is arrested, Mr. Morrison said
that the rules proided that the accused
is liabl to confinement for eight days be
fore the charges are recited to him. If
his superior officer insists, he may be helc
that long and must submit to it without
knowing why be Is lit Id. Such are the
rules of the service. As a subordinate,
lie Mated a rule.
'How can Capt. Armts be a subordinate
to any officer except tbe President?"
asked Judge Bradley.
"He is under command of the President,
and under the command of the Secretary
of War as the President's representative,"
answered Mr. Morrison.
In answer to a question of court, the
lawyer explained that Insubordination
in an officer meant an unwillingness to
comply with the rules prescribed for him
to follow.
