The Cotton Situation.

Speclal DtspAtc1 % Evening ASpftaL
New York, Sept. lin their week
ly Cotton Letter Miller q Go. says /:
THE new season has begun with al
most a clean slate so far as speculation
is concerned. The advance of nearly
one cent a pound at a time when
Texas was blistering under the rays
of a scorching sun, succeeded in fore
ing out all except the very strongest
bears, while the reaction of So per
bale which has taken place last week
wiped out practically all the weak
kneed bulls. This condition has made
an entirely new price movement pos.
sible, unhampered by sudden 1urries
which inevi tably accompany market
heavily committed on either side, just
at the time when the government cot
ton crop reports are Published. From
all appearances the new season will
be an intensely active one and many
price calculations, based upon prece-
dents, promises to be summarily up
set.

FAVORS A STATE UNIVERSITY
The Movement Is Commended By
DR.. Eugene F. CoTdeu,
of Baltimore.
OTHER NEW ADVOCATES COM
ING IN DAILY.
Prospective Coalition of St. Johns
And Other Colleges Grow
ing In Favor.

The movement on foot for the pros.
pective coalition of St Johns College.
the University of Maryland and the
Maryland Agricultural College grows
in favor. and finds new advocates
| daily. President Fell, of st. John s
College, advocates the scheme, and in
deed was the protector of it,
DIR. Eugene h. Cordell. of the Uni
yersity of Maryland, Baltimore, is
heartily IN favor of the plan, and
speaking of It yesterday. said
The movement in favor of State
universities is in line of educational
and social progress. If civilization
be dependent upon and proportionate
to the spread of education-and who
In this age viii deny it we should
extend the latter as widely as our
means permit. 1t NO longer suffices to
provide for the rich and for special
classes only; educational facilities
should be placed within the reach of
all men, and this can only be done
through the aid of the State.
Now, the State provides, with the
full consent and approval of ALL for
partial education-a training in the
elementary branches. But why should
II not take in the more advanced field,
and provide for complete education {?
Why should not the masses have ac-
cess to higher education They con
stitute the majority; they need it more
urgently than the privileged classes ;
they pay large proportion of the
taxes; they constitute the main sup.
port of the State both in peace and
war. Why should not Maryland have
a State university as we'll as Michigan,
Missouri, Texas. etc.
So
the thoroughly progressive and mod
ern States of the West; why should il
not be Sc here also ? Every Southern
State except Maryland has its State
university, and the people of the West
support their great State universities
with royal munifieence, which has
enabled them to take front rank
among American institutions Of learn
ing. All the elements exist in Mary
land for State university of the first
rank. They are already receiving the
support OF the State in various degrees,
and need only to be consolidated un.

max and complement of public educa-
fssas' -, Ain ss,l.a'aa- -fral fllino the innort.
and which in no other way can DC
fulfilled.
"There is a strong sentiment, we
are told, throughout the State, espec-
tally in the country districts and
among public teachers, in favor of this
project, a sentiment which can no
longer be ignored. 1t seems. therefore,
eminently appropriate that we should
crown our public school system with
such capstone, which will provide
ali the instruction necessary for the
manifold phases of citizenship, inolud
ing the professions.

FIRST PRACTICE OF SEASON.
Plebes At Academy Called Out For
Foot Ball Work.

The first football call at the NayaI
academy gees into effect this after
noon when the initial step in build.
ing winning team to put against
West Point on December , will be
taken with the members of the new
fourth class. Captain Douglas I.
Howard and Head Coach Paul ]
Dashiell, will have charge of the
squad, and it is hoped that some good
material may be developed from the
plebes.
Captain Howard and the coaches
will be assisted pending the coming
OF the other players and the other
coaches by several members of last
years navy squad in the work with
the plebes. Among these are Cham
bers and Northcraft, both of whom
were in the squad last season. 1t is
said that there is not any great
amount of material in the fourth class
for the football squad, but that what
men there are among the plebes who
are out for the team, are above the
average.
These men, however, while good
players, will find that they have got
to hustle if they expect a place on
the eleven. The determination to beat
the Army was never so strong as now.
and the rivalry for positions on the
team, while friendly, will nevertheless
be intense, and the older men have a
slight advantage over the others, in
knowing the methods of coaching
which were so successfully practiced
by Professor Dashiell last season. The
old men and all others who are now
ON their annual leave of absence will
return to the Academy ON or before
Tuesday, September 26, after which
the real work will begin with the
whole squad.
