MUST INCORPORATE.
Labor Unions First Step Toward Ar
bitration Says Justice Shiras.

Pittsburg. Aug. 27.-Justice Shiras OF
the United States supreme court, who
has Just arrived in Ptttsburg from b
vacation, refuses to discuss his reported
retirement from the bench further than
to say that President Roosevelt would
be the first person to learn Of it, and
that he had not received the announce
ment vet
On the subject Of the anthracite coal
strike Justice Shiras said:
Arbitration is the logical method of
settling labor troubles such as this one,
which affects the general prosperity and
comfort of a great section of the coun-
try. The method and the enforcement
of this arbitration is subject for the
lawmakers of the nation; but arbitra-
ton itself is the logic.
There is one great difficulty stand
ing in the way of an arbitration law.
Many of the labor unions are not in
corpOrated. Until they are no law can
be made binding, as no contract or
agreement could be enforced upon them.
while the operators, on the other hand,
could be held liable
incorporation of all labor unions is
the primary step towards the passage
of an arbitration law The unions must
be responsible for the carrying out of
an agreement, and until they are there
is little hope for compulsory arbitra-
tion of labor troubles

are apparently entering upon long

are apparently entering upon a long
journey.
States and several of our presidents
have more than once called attention
to the gravity of the situation, and We
cannot suppose that men occupying such
high positions of responsibility would
wantonly excite public apprehension.
President Roosevelt has said more
than once that the power of corpora
tions over prices should be subjected to
public control Very recently he said.
We may need, and, in my belief, we do
need, new legislation conceived in no
radical or revolutionary spirit, but In
a spirit Of common sense common hon
esty and resolute desire to face facts
as thew are
This language is clear, and will meet
with general approval. The principa1
difficulty pertains to the remedy
President Rose said that remedy
sometimes proposed with seeming con-
clared that publicity would only serve
to prolong the present situation.
Another remedy suggested" he said.
is an amendment to the federal con-
stitution giving power to congress to
control all corporations: a very drastic
remedy, indeed. one that would greatly
strengthen the lobby, one that must in
troduce an era of political corruption
hitherto unknown.
Lastly, 1t is suggested that the fed
eral constitution should be SO amended
as to enable congress to prevent by
appropriate penalties the slugging of
rivals by local undersellinE, by factors
agreement and by similar devices. This
would not prevent the investment of
large sums in corporate hands; and cor
porations with large capital would still
have an advantage; but laws of that
kind would no doubt be rigidly enforc-
ed by the juries of the country; and
public sympathy in favor of new and
struggling enterprises would probably
go a long way to redress the balance" /"
President Rose said that the Sherman
antitrust act fails to meet all the diff
culties of the situation, adding: "Wheth-
er this act exhausted the powers of
congress over the subject matter is a
question about which there may be q
difference Of opinion"

BRAIN FOOD NONSENSE.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most competent
authorities. They have dispelled the
silly notion that one kind of food is
needed for brain. another for mus
cles, and still another for bones. A
correct diet will not only nourish Il
particular part of the body. but II
will sustain every other part. Yet
however good your food may be, its
nutriment is destroyed by indiges-
ton or dyspepsia. You must prepare
for their appearance or prevent their
coming by taking regular doses OF

New York Cotton Futurea.
Murphv C cota. cotton Letter.

New York. October 18-Cotton was weak and lower this morning Cables were down in response to our weakness of Saturday. Local bulls sold in a small way, being scared by mild weather over Sunday and today, although the temper ature in northwest Texas was down to A and freezing weather prevailed in Kansas. The rainfall was quite moderate but an unfavorable impression was pro- duced by private Texas dispatches and announcing wonderful improvement of the crop last week at a result of the mild weather.
 While private cables regarded the finan- cial situation as unhealthy, nevertheless there remained in many quarters feel ing of confidence in a short crop and higher prices as soon as the outside sur ronndings become healthier since the re- ports of poor crops were too numerous to be ignored and the developments in many respects resembles the 1896 crop so far. The market improved as the re- eovery advanced and the fact that ex- ports continue so heavy is regarded as certain to prevent any decline of conse- quence. A forecast of frost in Arkansas and Oklahoma scared shorts towards noon. Texas also was promised warmer weather The market in the whole was only moderately active. Cables were to 9 points lower Port receipts. 5S,000 against 59,000 last year.

For this reason, we adheee to our position on the market in the long run. but regard immediate surroundings as such an un- certain quantity that we would only buy cotton on a heavy break If the wealth CT continues good this week. receipts will be large and the strike not settled we are inclined to look for a further decline in prices. Nothing but manipu- 1ation would put the market up in the face of existing factors and this is not an ipducement to buy.

CHANGES WERE SLIGHT

New York, October 1s-The cotton mar ket opened easy at loss of 1 to points. Selling increased the decline to 5 to ' points. Later there was rally of to points, with the market final ly quiet and steady at unchanged prices to a decline of points. The early weak ness was the result of a combination of adverse influences. including a Liverpool decline of 6 to T points, generally favor able weather reports from the cotton belt, indications of large receipts, the still unsettled strike in. the coal regions weakness in the stock market and tight ness in money.
 The rally followed frost predictions for the western belt, disposition to make lighter estimates on receipts for tomor- row and numerous reports to the effect that the coal strike was at last in a fair way for a speedy settlement. The enor- nous exports of late were also factor in the influences leading to the purchase of cotton in the afternoon.
