tee have hundreds Of applications on hand
from people all over the State, who are
anxious 20 take part IN the tournament
and % enter their horses in the races.
All that remains now for these latter
committees to complete their arrange
ments Is the fixing of a date FOR the
launching. This the Trigg Company may
be able TO do this week, when, in all
probability. .he needed material for piac-
ing the boat in condition for launching
may be here. The people in South Beth
lahem are working on the tubes as rap
idly as possible, and making good pro-
gress.
Many members Of the German socie-
ties have expressed themselves as being
favorable to the suggestion-that has been
made that the Germans enter into COM
bnation with the Carnival Committee in
reference TO the celebration.
The Gesangverein will meet at Saenger
Hall tomorrow night, and indications
point to a coalition of forces.
This will mean a great deal for the city,
and the German-Americans, realizing
that, are entering heartily into the idea.
The Tournament Committee has given
out the contract for a stand at the track
TO seat $500 people. and the restaurant
and other privileges have been let.
1t has been reported that parties are
canvassiug the city for advertisements In
a so-called official souvenir programe. No
such programme has been authorized. The
Committee on Publicity, Of which Mr.. II.
d. Echelberger is chairman, has charge
Of this arrangement, and when canvassers
are started out each one will have ere
dentials signed by Mr.. Eichelberger.

Signs of Shrinkage in New Demand for
Iron and Steel Products Are Visible
A GAINESVILLE Man Blows Up a House

r. G.. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says: 1.-THE signs of shrinkage in
the new demand for iron and steel pro-
ducts become more clear, and while
prices of pig are maintained without
change and billets are quoted lower only
because premiums for earlier deliveries
are no longer paid, plates are quoted
lower ut the East, with some small mills
selling at 2.5 cents at Pittsburg, and
sheets are sold by some works there at
IS to 81 less than the regular price. The
strength of bars at the West is largely
due to the great demand for cars, Of
which it is said that 1000 per day are
ordered. Shipments of boots and shoes
fall off, and yet are larger than in any
previous year. Textile manufactures are
doing we'll, although in woolens the spec
ulation in material threatens to cause
some embarrassment Sales of wool were
again heavy-21, 642,311 pounds at the
three chief understanding in two
weeks Al, 1923, 81 pounds, against 17,437,
100 pounds last year. Worsted goods are
in good demand and have been advanced
in price with some fannels. Failures for
the week were 219 in the United States,
against 223 last year, and 20 in Canada,
against 26 last year"
