husband and children were found
murdered thirty years ago.
But they do not say that she her

even that she haa guilty knowledge
OF it. Perhaps, knowing that her
fault led logically to the murder by
another, and knowing that she was
suspected, She sought in the mona

IS THERE A COTTON TRUST
Syndicate Security Control OF Gins in
Creek Nation.

The following special from Mus
kogee appeared in several metro
palitan dailies yesterday. If the
report is correct, it presents a seri-
Gus situation to the cotton plantsrs
1t says: Evidently nhere is an at
tempt being mode by a syndicate
to get control Of the entire output
Of cotton In the Greek nation.
This became apparent today when
it was learned that this syndicate
had purchased the Spaulding cot
ton gin at Checotah and that it
was but one Of a stirring Of FIVE
that have been bought by the same
syndicate within the past few
weeks. The purchaser admits
that he represents a syndicate and
that they have been buying up
cotton gins and that SO far they
have invested $3.50, 900 i'll this sort
of property, but further than that
he will not go, refusing even to
give the name of the company
which he represents.
One of'the biggest congresses in
the Southwest is located at Mus
kogee, but it was not operated last
year because there was disagree
ment among the owners and it was
tied up in a legal taugle and could
not be operated 1t is believed
here that this syndicate is not only
going to try TO get control Of the
cotton gins in the Greek nation,
but that they will buy this COM
press, and thus controlling the
gins and the compress, they can to
a CERTAIN extent control the price of
cotton. This is a very feasible
proposition and it would not be
necessary for the syndicate to get
but few more than half of the
gins, when they could then force
the other ginners to come into their
combine or else refuse to handle
their cotton at the compress.
This move will be watched with
a great deal Of interest by cotton
producers and buyers in Indian
Territory So far as known this
is the first attempt ever made TO
get control of the cotton output.
