It is estimated that between 70 and 80 per echt of the estton falaries sent to China by the United States are manufactored by Southern mills and that the remaining 20 to 30 per cent are made by New England mills. During a recent tour of Southern cotton null conters mueli disentistnction was heard at the difference in the prevail. lug rates on cotton goods between Now. England and Southern points and Shuangħni. They new stand from New England in Shanghai overland, vin a Pacific port, at 80 cents per lundred pounds; front Southern points to the samo dostiuntion, by the same route, $1 per hundred pounds. In view of the advance in the Southern rate last year from 81.10 to the present charge, it is contended by the Southern manufacturers that they are being forced to pay ail unreasonably high price for finnsportation." It is pointed out by them that. New England shipment via ororland railroad to the Pacife might be, and at times is, so routed na to pass through Soutlier mill towns where a car containing like product of Southern origin would go forward by the same train, paying for about a 900-mile shorter haul over 40 per eat more for transportation.
All cotton goods are sold on the basis of Now York delivery. For this reason, it is seldom that cloths of Southem origin
