PRESIDENT AND MANN
Publisher of "Fads and Fan cies" Differs With Roosevelt.
WOMAN SAYS SHE COT PORTRAIT.
omcially Stated at Oyster Bay Tint the President Never Gave His Con- sent to Publication of Picture
 or Sketch of Himself.

NEW YORK;. July 26--It is now a question of veracity between the presi- dent of the United States and Colonel w. n. Mann. edNor of Town Topics, as to the arrangement by which the fads and fancies of the president were to be set forth in the book 'Fads and Fancies.' Colonel Mann has asserted positively that President Roosevelt not only consented to take free copy of "Fads and Fancies,' but actually sent an autograph photograph of himself to be used in illustrating an article describing his diversions and amuse- ments.
 ''I see," said. Colonel Mann. that they accuse me out at Oyster Bay of bluf1ng We'll, let them call my bluff I say, and l repeat, that. President Roosevelt not only consented to have his name enrolled with the other great men of the century in Pads and Fancies,' but that he was glad of the chance. l have the goods to prove what I say
 The salary of s1.2oo year which Justice Deuel draws from Town Top ics, as the books show. is explained by Colonel Mann thus:
 My daughter owns nearly all the stock in Town Topics own about one share. Justice Deuel owns the rest. He acts as trustee for my daugh- ter and manages her property, which is growing in value all the time. At my suggestion some eight years ago she made an allowance of S1,200 a year for his services as trustee. That is how his name appears on the books as receiving a salary from Town Top ics My daughter is almost the entire owner of Town Topics"
 Colonel Mann said that the original plan of Pads and Fancies" was to get out book costing $100.00O. collect $150,O00 and divide the S50.O00 profit between M E. Wooster. the originator of the idea, and Town Topics. the packer.
 District Attorney Jerome is greatly interested in the assertion made by Colonel Mann that there is sufficient scandalous matter locked up in the safe of Town Topics to turn New York upside down if it were printed.
 If President Roosevelt's picture and record of his fsds and fancies ap' pears in Colonel Mann's magnificent publication when it Is published. the president will be exceedingly annoyed He may even confiscate the whole edi. tion like he confiscated Lew Dock stader's moving picture films repre-, senting the president picking Booker T. Washington up out of the mud.
 It was officially promulgated at Oys ter Bay that President Roosevelt never gave his consent to the publication ot a picture or a sketch of himself fir "Fads and Fancies." He never said that he would accept copy of the book He repudiates the whole matter

and is especially indignant at Colonel Mann's insinuation that maybe he has forgotten all about 1t.
 A representa- tive for Town Topics, Mrs. Wade Hampton, daughter-in- la W of General Wade Hampton. some time ago had an audience with the president in the White House and returned to New York with picture across which MT. Roosevelt had written his auto graph
 ''It is true that the president did au thorze the use of his signed photo graph in Pads and Fancies,'" said Mrs. Hampton, though he did not know it at the time.
 ''Here is the picture. Mrs. Hamp ton,' he said. put it in any book you like or do anything else that you please with 1t.

SIX MONTHS IN JAIL
Senator Mitchell Sentenced
 at Portland, Ore.
MUST ALSO PAY FINE OF St,0O0
By Sentence He Is Rendered Incapa- ble of Again Holding Any Omce of Trust or Profit In the
 United States.

PORTLAND, Ore, July 26.-United States Senator John H. Mitchell of Oregon has been found guilty and sen tenced to serve six months in the Mutt nomah county jail and to pay fine of $1,0OO. Sentence was pronounced by Judge De Haven in the United States district court. Mitchells offense was accepting money for pressing land claims before the departments at Washington.
 The court granted stay of execu- tion for two days to permit counsel for the defendant to prepare papers for an appeal to the United States su- preme court The appeal will act as further stay.
 Senator Mitchell was apparently un- IT,, sobbed audibly while sentence was being passed.
 In pronouncing sentence upon the aged United States senator Judge De Haven said:
 'The statute under which the indict- ment was found provides that the of fense shall be punished by imprison- ment of not more than two years or by fine of not more than S100OO' It also renders the defendant incapable of again holding any office of trust or profit In the United States.
 AS I construe the language of the statute the punishment must be both fine and imprisonment, but the court is given great latitude in fixing the amount of fine or imprisonment. The court may make the punishment mere ly nominal
 'In pronouncing sentence 1t is not my purpose to comment on the evi- dence or the verdict found by the jury In reaching a conclusion in this case I have given consideration to the age of the defendant. which may be taken into account in mitigation of punish ment and the further fact that he is forever disqualified from holding any office.
 'In view of these facts and in con sideration of the nature of the offense the judgment of the court is that the defendant be imprisoned for six months in the county jail of Multno- nah county, in this state. and that he be fined the sum of S1.0O0"

CENTS IS PREDICTED
sulIy Confident of Great Advance Ere
Long

Fifteen cents for cotton ere the crop
is sold entirely is the prediction of
Sully, the cotton king, and he strongly
advises the farmers to demand full
value for their bales. The crop this year
will scarcely exceed 100000 bales,
and prices are bound to soar to azure
heights ere the present crop is fully
marketed.
Mr.. j. L. Butler, an expert, repre-
sentlng Mr.. Suliy, is in Macon doing
all in his power to get the farmers to
hold on to theresult of their labors.
81 have been al over the South, :"
said Mr.. Butler, "and I am satisfied
that farmers who are selling their cot
ton are making grave mistake From
what I have seen I unhesitatingly pre-
dict that cotton will be selling for Is
cents pound in the spring.
Between now and, Christmas it will
bring II cents and the farmer who sells
now is losing money.
"There is short crop all over the
country and the indications are that
it will not be over ten million bales
The Texas crop, which everybody
thought would be larger this year. is
away off and is half million bales
shorter than was thought would be the
case some weeks ago.
'Of course 10 cents is better than 4
cents, which was all the farmers re-
ceiYed not so many years ago, but what
is the use of selling for 10 cents when
you can get 1922
Theodore Price and others are MAX
ing use of schemes to get the farmer to
sell now. He said that many buyers
were offering to pay the market price
and any raise shat was shown within
sixty days The fact that the farmers
turned loose their cotton would pre-
vent any raise and he warns farmers
to beware of such schemes.
He said Sully and his bull associates
are going to make strenuous efforts to
put the market up in New York with
the help of big Southern pool, but he
declared that this could not be done
unless the farmers stood by them by
holding their cotton.
