workers say the difference between the
window glass manufacturers in the East,

The manufacturers in the latter district
have chafed under this for long time, and
in the recent convention of window glass
works submitted communication notify

scale of wages must be agreed upon. At
present the Eastern and Northern manu-
facturers are holding aloof from the syndi-
cate formed recently by the Western, and
talk about forming one themselves i'm order
to protect their market from glass made
with natural gas, The trouble is one of an
nual recurrence, and contest for the
supremacy of the market is possible con-

mated at the treasury department that the
public debt statement to be issued to-mor-
row will show decrease in the debt for
the month of November of little over
$1,000. 900. The small amount of the re-
ductiOn is principally due to the fact that
nearly $4,000 600 were paid out during the
month for pensions alone. The receipts
during the month were about twenty
seven million dollars, and the disbursements
about twenty-four million dollars. In
November of last year the receipts were
about twenty-five million dollars and the
expenditures about twenty-three million
dollars. There was an increase of about
four million dollars in the debt in Novenl-

Grover Cleveland President of the United

herds by the existence of coll

your forthcoming message to congress some
suggestion may be made in the interests OF
legislation looking to the determination of
the contagious cattle disease ayknown as
pleuro pneumonia, and such sanitary regula-
tions as will protect the cattle interests of the
United States against the Importation OF

the millions who toll to pay an exorbitant

compels the producer to accept for his pro-

growers to the verge of ruin. The bill now
pending before congress for the regulation of

DENVER. Col, Nov. 30.-Rumors be-
came current upon the streets late tonight
that F. L. Carter Cotton, manager of the
North Poudre Land and Canal company,
and also an extensive real estate operator at
Fort Collins, had absconded and left credit
Drs to a large amount. The statement of
facts as learned from gentleman of high
standing in financial circles in Northern
Colorado, and who is in position to know.
IS that for some weeks past Carter COttOn'S
numerous creditors have been becoming
uneasy and were suspicious of his move
ments ard transactions. A week ago
Thursday a number of them corralled him
in an office. After some talk Carter Cotton
made preteXt to 20 out, locked his credit
ors i'm and has not since been seen in or
about Fort Collins. The creditors got
out by
CLIMBING OVER THE TRANSOM.
How Carter Cotton got away is not known.
Next day he was seen in Denver, and here
all traces of him ceased. This same gentle
man, in connection with another prominent
financier of this city, gave the reporter the
following statement IN regard To Carter
CottOn's financial operations. he said:

North POudre canal and 10000 acres of
land to the amount of S15O. 900. The Trav-
eller's Insurance company took $50, 600.
These bonds, and another $780,
600. are held by various New
England parties. In addition to this
he has borrowed on the stock of the canal
S35. 900. He has also negotiated for them
upwards of $50, 600 on real estate mort
cages. and many of the interest collections
he has withheld. He also secured in the
neighborhOod of S25 600 on land contracts
from HAYDEN & Dickinson. Of this city. In
addition he has nearly $50, 900 in miscel-
laneous debts. 1t is also stated he had
similar advances on contracts from an Eng
lish company, but how much cannot be
learned. Altogether the Indebtedness has
been figured up by Fort Collins bankers at
S305. 600. the Travellers Insurance company,
HAYDEN d Dickinson and representative

East thew claim they are fully secured by

Poudre company, which is valued at twice
The amount, as the canal is one of the
finest in the state. The opinion among
few is that Carter Cotton has not alb
seconded. but has gone on a trip to Europe
Or Mexico, and will return shortly and
square up all claims against him. but it is
generally believed in financial circles that
ae has no intention OF returning.
