FAIR BUSINESS BUT TOTAL SALES NOT UP

Total business so far the week IS some.
what under the showing for the same period last
some miIlers making the situation little better
than others. but there is no very heavy busi-
lis about all that is doing at this time. Foreign
inquiry has fallen off. Some millers say there
is opportunity to do business every day but at
prices not especially attractive.
The outlook is for a heayier production neX ext
week all the mills will be grinding. NO
and dour is moving out promptly. Yesterday s
report Of the Tuesday shipments showed so large
a total-1O7 100 barrels--that some falling was
expected in to-days report covering Wednesday,
but while the quantity shipped was lighter :, It
was much heavier than anticipated, at S4'ol4

NEW YORK COTTON, Nov 1.-THE cotton
market opened firm at an advance of lac points
in spite of lower cables, better weather than
predicted and continued heavy receipts but fol-
lowing the call ruled very irregular, showing
alternating periods of strength and wea kness
with prices fuctuating within or points
either way of yesterdays finals. The mornings
advtces from Fall River, while confirming the
reduction in wages, spoke reassuringly of the
outlook for strike, and this aided in the raj
lies, while the heavy estimate for to-morrow's
receipts at Houston end fears that the market
was over long encouraged sales. Trading was
fairly active and sentiment unsettled.

HELP FOR STRIKING MINERS
Thousarlds of Dollars Will Be Sent From the Black
Hills to Colorado Miners

mining conditions in the Hills differ
from those of other regions where the
eight-hour day is in force.
The great difference lies in the fact
that the Black Hills ores are of low
er grade and must necessarily be treat
ed with all necessary economy, both
in labor and mechanical arrangements.
They say there is no proposition OF the
kind under consideration, and not like
ly to be. The Homestake Mining com
pany has always been liberal with Its
employees.
Black Hills union men assert that
this region is a separate and independ-
ent district, although affiliated with the
Western Federation Of Miners. The
local unions are permitted to make
their own regulations and to exercise
their discretion in all matters, regard
less of outside influences. In other
words, no pressure from the outside
can be brought to bear that would re-
suit in a strike here. The Homestake
company has never known strike,
and its employees declare that as long
as present conditions continue it never
will.

assessments have been levied by the
a,0arent unions of the Black Hills
ogainst their members for the assist
once of the striking miners of Colo
RADIO. The Terry Peak Miners union
~ Terry assessed its members SO each,
this being on the basis of one days
wages for each member. Terry Peak
union has 600 members, and a check
was accordingly sent for little over
$500.
The Deadwood Mine and Mill Mems
union levied an assessment of one
davis wages for each member, which
will average close to SO each for the
goo members. Lead City Miners
union. the Oldest in the Black Hills,
held a special meeting TO consider a
proOosition, and voted to send one
davis wages for each member employ
cd Il was at first reported that the
specjal meeting of the Lead City Min
ers union was for the purpose of vot-
ing on a proposition to demand an
eight-hour day of the Homestake COM
many This is positively denied by
upjop miners. The ten-hour day pre-
