If there is the slightest doubt in the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief is compelled by the
fact that a rabbit innoculated with the
germs became bald in six weeks time.
1t must be apparent to any person
therefore that the only prevention of
badness is the destruction of the germ
which act is successfully accomplished
In one hundred per cent. % cases by
the application of Newbro's Herpicide.

DOWNGOESCOTTON
War Rumor Strikes Hard
at Close of the
Day.

The cotton market again took plunge
downward yesterday.
This was caused not alone by the loss
OF leadership by the bull faction, but by
unsupported rumors OF wan between Rus.
STA and Japan.
| The spot and future markets held ratn'
er firm during the morning, but just be-
| fore the close of the market ii was as
serted that hostilities had begun in the
East and on this the market tumoicd,
going off 1913 points, or $5.l5 on each pale.
| On the Raleigh spot market prices nad
! held during the morning as hlgh at 10 90
cents pound but it fell, and especially
rand was the fall when the war rep0rl
| came. the bottom price being Ia IL cents
a pound.
There was sold on this market yestcr
day forty-five bales in all, as against s'A
bales sold here on the same date IN 1909
at IA cents pound.
The present status OF the market is not
difficult to understand. The bull leaders
have evidently sold much OF their mold
| irgs and the reported vacation OF Daniel
J. Sully added to the feeling that the
bulls were weakening. On this the small
er operators in futures simply fell oTcr
each other in the stampede and prices
collapsed. AS futures went down the
spot market also lowered its figures.
What is going to be the future price
| is of course the question. No one can
tell and all solutions of the problem are
mere guess work as there have never beer
such a condition in the cotton world as AT
present. But a careful study of the mar.
ket warrants the following prediction
Prices will go off for some days and
will in all probability stiffen mp when
the government ginners' report is issued
oil. the ninth of February, moving up 2
little. Prices will then hold fairly steady
till the last OF May when the present
average supply of cotton in the mills will
be exhausted, this exhaustion bringing
about a natural demand Tor spot cotton
though the time may be extended later
than the last of May as the mills may
seek the present opportunity given BY
lower prices TO stock uD. There is a
| fe cling all around that prices will again
advance and that the maximum price oil
| the season has not yet been reached.
The bull clique is yet to be heard from
The men in it are not going to lay down
their hands at this season OF the game.
and when this faction again puts on lis
fighting clothes prices are apt TO look
up.

cotton affairs and who is in the city, mar
put the situation in nut she'll. IN talk
ine of the state of affairs he sall yes
Dtclday:
Il don't know what is going to happen
Cotton is still very high. but think that
the outlook is for a still lower price for
scme days, followed by an advance thaS
will carry prices higher than they have

Gone to Republican Pow-WoW.

Raleigh Republicans were in evidence

mittee OF the Republican party.
In the party were Mr. f. G. duncan,
Collector of Internal Revenue for the
Eastern District of North Carolina; Col.
Harry Skinner, District Attorney; Mr..
H. c. Dockery, Marshal; Mr.. Claudius
Dockery, of the Internal Revenue De-

lake, who had dropped in from Lousburg.
1t will be observed that the visiting
statesmen to the Greensboro meeting are
gentlemen who hold seats at the first
table at the pie trough. These seem to
favor Raleigh as the place to hold the Re-
publican State Convention and are for
an early convention, about the middle of
May Needless be it to say that the
party was a Teddy Roosevelt delegation.

A LONG FIGHT ENDS
Reorganization of U. S.
ShipbuiIding Company.
The Plan is Made Public and Mr.. I'm.
termeyer Admits that the Battle
in the Courts is Practically
Over.

(By the Associated Press

New York, Feb. AFTER frequent con-
ferences the long fight between the Shell
don reorganization committee in United
States Shipbuilding affairs and the Bond
holders Protective Committee represented
by Samuel Untermeyer was settled tonight
by the formulation OF new plan which
has been agreed to by both sides and the
litigation in which Charles NJ. Schwab has
been the central figure will end. Max
Pam has been removed from the re-or-
ganization committee and Pliny Fiske, the
banker, whose house will take part of the
work of financing the new company,
takes his place, while Max Nathan, of the
International Pump Company, has been
agreed on as an additional member of
the committee to represent the protective
committee.
The new plan made public by William
Nelson Comwell is put out as coming from
Receiver Smith. and provides for a new
company with a capitalization of thirty
millions, half preferred and half common,
Mr. Schwab as the owner of the Bethle-
hem bonds to get nine millions OF prefer
red and six millions of common stock, and
the first mortgage bOndholders to get the
remainder pro-rata. Mr.. Schwab gives up
his prior lien on Bethlehem and all the
present stock is wiped out. The prefer
red stock is to be seven per cent non
cumulative There are to be issued three
millions of collateral trust sinking fund
six per cent ten year gold bonds, which
are to be taken up by syndicate OF which
the Morton Trust Company and Thomas
F. Ryan are to be managers, and Harvey
Fiske & Sons, participants, the latter to
market the bonds. These bonds are to be
sold to the syndicate at S75 per 1000.
| Mr. Untermeyer admitted that fight in
the courts was practically settled. and
| that it will now be dropped as far as the
| litigation is hostile to Mr. Schwab. Mr..
| Schwab will not be called upon to testify.
The pending case will have to go on
formally and the matter of testing the
validity of the so-called fraudulent
bonds will be taken up in earnest. No
mention Of these bonds is made in the
compromise plan.

The audience was large and cultured
one and the genuine applause showed
that the play had won popular favor.
