duke of Marlborough Will preside.
The duchess Of Marlborough will en-
tertain this great Jhrong at luncheon
in huge tent especially erected upon
the historic grounds. All uniOnist
members Of the house of commons
have been invited. The palace viii be
opened for public inspection, and, in
fact, Blenheim will be en- fete as il
has not been for many years. A dis
tinguished house party Will follow,
several of the most prominent per-
sons present remaining to the end of
the week. Among the features of
the fete will be a recital upon the
celebrated organ in the long library,
boating upon the lake and the render
ing of band music during the entire
day.
The duke of Marlborough said to
representative of the Associated
Press:
''No significance is attached to this
fete, so far as l am concerned; I did
something similar five years ago, only
on a much smaller scale. I thought
this would be good for the unionist
party, effectively prove its cohesion
and the concord which prevails in the
party, and also give the leaders a
chance of personally thanking their
agents and workers; so I asked them
all 10 come to Blenheim."
The duke of Marlborough is not go
ing TO the United States, and has not
the faintest idea of succeeding Lord
MintO as governor general of Canada;
he characterized both reports as ut
terly unfOunded.

Cotton

New York, November 6.-The market
for cotton futures opened weak, with
prices down Is to q points on a bad
scare of local longs and commission
selling. together with selling for for
eign account, for professional bear
operators and by Wall street bulls.
After the opening long cotton %contin-
ued to come out free and the bears gave
no indication of turning for profits.
Supporting orders were scarce and
news from abroad was bearish to an
unusual degree. On the cold weather
outlook of Monday night Liverpool was
expected to continue on the up tack
during our holiday, but, instead, show
ed a loss of s to 9k points when our
market opened today. Bearish crop es-
Inmates by Neill caused the weakness
in Liverpool and had a potent influence
upon our market as well. Large offer
fngS of spot cotton in southern markets
at II to 3-16c lower figured, and free
port receipts helped to weigh down the
market here.
Reports from Fall River were less
favorable. The weather report did not
show as general nor as heavy frost in
the cotton belt as predicted, while the
forecast for tomorrow's climatic condi-|
tions indicated higher temperatures as
a rule. Early in the afternoon the mar
ket stiffened on light profit taking by
loOII SIOIl Is, JdIludTy TdllyluS from LOO
to 7.4O. Later, however, the market
again broke under liquidation which,
found a market very bullishly support
ed. Prices eased on to the low figures
Of the morning, and sentiment seemed
to favor further declines. Trading was
inclined to drag at times and, aside
from the liquidation, was quite of al
professional character. The close was
barely steady at a net decline Of % toI
Is points.
