The Cabinet Chums.

Secretaries Hitchcock and Viii
son are the chums of the cabinet,
being comrades and cronies in every
way. For years they have walked
away from cabinet meeting togeth-
er. The two are of much the same
temperament and among those who
know them it is regarded as quite
natural that they should become in
innate to chumminess. President
Roosevelt is fond of calling them
my Official twins"

Say They Are Not Sure Majority Is
Right On Crops Size.
New York. Oct. lit is an open
question whether sentiment on the
market has been as bearish at any
time this season. 1t may be the trade
is right and we are on the way to 91s
cents or 9 cents. But there has been
so many breaks just like this that end
ed in bear panics that we are not con-
fident the majority are right. Prices
have break of 100 points. The short
interest is huge. Spinners are buying
cotton. The New York stock is only
10000 bales. We can have frost
scare any day. From the action of the
market in the past. prices can be de-
pressed just so far and then something
happens. on a basis of 1914 and 10
cents, there will be a steady demand
from splnners. Cotton is going abroad
fast. In a few weeks more, we will
run against record receipts. There is
every inducement TO buy when prices
are down this way. For two days the
demand from invisible sources has
been enormous. Shorts may try to COW
er some day and then it will be the
same story.

was such a volume of covering for To-

worked back to about the close of the

tainly nervous and unsettled. There is
nowhere a disposition to consider that
the October bureau will be generally
accepted as a final indication of the
crop. We think it quite reasonable to
suppose that prices might work a lit
tie below 10 cents before the bureau is
issued on Monday. but do not look for
any really sensational feature, nor do
we believe that the market can be held
