TWO KILLED; 13 INJURED.

Two persons were killed, one fatally hurt and thirteen injured by the wrecking of southbound passenger train No. on the Iron Mountain near Ironton, Mo-. Sun day morning shortly after mid- night. The wreck was caused by culvert giving away, owing to a heavy rain, and two engines and five cars were precipitated into the creek. Both engines were demol. ished and Engineer Allen and Fire man Brown of the second engine were instantly killed. Engineer Hays of the first engine was probably fatally hurt, but his fire man escaped with only few bruises. The train consisted of ten cars and was drawn by two en- zines. Five cars went into the ditch.

With three such speakers the occasion was not only a feast of good things for the in- her man, but an intellectual feast, full of good, sound, practical ad- vice to the farmer.

would GnlnK tnlS natl0nat caia1n- ity.
 As matter of fact twelve cents for cotton brings into this country immeasurably more money than 1t takes out. In the fall of 1903 1t saved the exchange market and prevented what might have prov ed to be panic, It was not be- cause we exported so much cotton to Europe as the price we got for it.
 THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN sc
 AND 12C COTTON.
 We have exported to Europe this year approximately 8,700,- 900 bales. At s cents pound this would mean S34S, GOO, GOO that Eu- rope would pay for our cotton. With cotton at 12 cents pound Europe would pay Us S522, ,00O,- 900 for the same S,700.000 bales. A rough estimate of the amount taken by American mills this year is 1, 500, GOO bales. At cents a pound this would mean an expen- allure of S184, 100000. At 12 cents a pound the amount would be S276, 100000. In other words, American mills pay out S92. .000.- 900 more on an advance of four cents pound, On the other hand the increased value of our exports brings into this country S174, ,000,- 000. Taking 1t in the worst possi- ble light, the advance in the price of cotton means an increase in the country's wealth of SS2, ,O00, ,000 over and above the so-called injury worked to American mills.
 Europe will be a competitor for $500, ,000 bales of American cot ton.
 The price will be a secondary consideration when the true possi- bilities of this crop are known.
 European spinners will pay at least $500, 10000 in gold to the people of the United States during 1905 and 1906 If they can get the cotton. Cotton will sell at 14 cents.
 CONDITIONS UNPARALLELED.
 To this indisputable fact more than any other is due the rise in prices of cotton from : cents to Il cents.
 These same conditions, now growing and multiplying in force day after day. will cause inevita- bly, much higher prices.
 Never in the history of the cot ton trade were conditions so un- precedented as they are at the present time.
 History fails to relate such mar vellous prosperity as now encircles the spindles throughout the whole world.
 Not spindle idle.
 Not a spindle but whose capacity is sold for one year in advance at prosperity prices.
 Not pound of yarn, not yard of cloth for immediate delivery except at premium prices.
 Every bale of American cotton now in sight and every pound of cotton in the field, picked or un- picked, will not meet the exacting requirements of the worlds spin dies for the coming season.
 THE MINIMUM PRICE.
 The minimum price of II cents for cotton, as fixed by the South ern Cotton Association, of Ashe- vile, N. C., is unquestionably

DANIEL J. SULLY ON
 COTTON SITUATION
He Gives the Farmers Some Good Ad- vice, and Says Cotton Will go
 to A Cents Pound.

The Journal is in receipt of the following letter on the cotton sit uation from Daniel J. Sully, the New York cotton broker who has heretofore done much for the far mers of the South in boosting the price of the fieecy staple.
 Today the whole world is con- graduating our noble and glorious President for the wonderful fore sight he has shown and also the marvellous courage to do that which no other man has ever done by this remarkable achievement, which all the world now applauds; he has opened to you the possibil- ities of far reaching results.
 It means the open door for your cotton goods to 100, 1000 of peo- pie.
 Your exports of cotton goods to China have fallen off at least B per cent in the last two years. The United Kingdom has increased her exports of cotton goods at least 100 per eent.-One hundred mill lion dollars worth of cotton goods have been exported to China the past year by the United Kingdom.
 Do not let Europe take S,50O,- 000 bales of cotton this year be- fore you get your 4,500,0 ,000 bales. For the highest conservative esti- mate is not more than II, ,000, 900 bales.
 TO THE PLANTERS OF THE s- SOUTH.
 It rests with you to decide the price at which the present crop of cotton Is to be Sold. You have shown your ability to combat the combined influence of the largest crop of cotton ever raised, and the united attacks If bearish specula- tions in all the future markets of the world. If you can get 10 cents for crop of nearly 14,000,000  bales you certainly can get the worth of the crop that is many million bales less.
 The crop of last year has already moved to market with the excep- ton of few thousand bales. There is no vast unmarketed sur plus from the old crop to pound down the prices which you will get for the yield of 1905 06. Last years's crop, according to the re- turns of ginners to the census bu- reau, was 3,693, ,000 bales. More than 13,600,00 bales have already been sold by you, with the mills engaged ahead for six months to ten months, and in some cases a year, their surplus is too scanty to permit curtailment to any extent. They must fill their contracts, and the only way they can fill their contracts is by buying the raw material from you. Don't be dis turbed by raids in the future mar ket. Paper contracts can be sold to an unlimited extent, but they cannot be filled unless you are willing to part with your holdings
 Present crop prospects anG the great short interest among the spinners of the world do not war rant cheap cotton, and if you stand firm you will be able to get a fair and profitable reward for your toll.

IN The FIELD OF SPORTS
FAVOPS OPEN GAME.
Acting President of Rutgers Gives
His Opinion on Football.

Acting President Demarest, of
Rutgers, said yesterday in regard to
the sentiment at the college about
football that while he did not wish
at this time to be quoted officially.
vet he expressed his opinion very
strongly that some decisive action
should be taken which would pre-
vent such a sad accident as that of
the death of Harold Moore, in the
Union-N. Y. u. game Saturday last.
He stated that when such an ac-
cidenL as that mentioned takes place
football ceases to be a sport.
DR.. Demarest earnestly favors the
adoption of rules which will open the
game and thought that this end
could be best attained by a confer
ence of college presidents, who
would have power to appoint a COM
mittee consisting of the alumnus
from each of the colleges represent
ed at the college Presidents confer
ence.
He also thought that any man
who uses rough tactics should be
~debarred from representing his col
lege for the remainder of the year.
DR.. Demarst also stated that he is
hartily in favor of any movement to-
ward the betterment of the game.

ABOLISHES FOOTBALL.
Columbia University Resolved to
Prohibit Gridiron Battles.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. - Columbia
university has abolished the game of
football as 1T present played as one of
the sports in which students of the uni
versity will be permitted to engage,
This action was taken at Il meeting
of the Columbia university committee
on student organizations held at the
university, at which were present the
members Of the committee, Professor
. Lord, chairman; Professor Mitchell and
Professor Odell and also President But
Ter and Dean Kirchwey and Professor

At the hour when the body Of young
Harold Moore, the Union college stu
dent who was fatally injured in Il
football game with the University of
New York team last Saturday, was
being laid to rest In Ogdensburg the
faculty of the University of New York
took definite action looking TO the abol-
ishment of the game of football as it
now is played.
Every college whose football team
has played against the New York
university since 1885, when the latter's
team was organized. has been invited
to take part in Il conference to fully
consider and finally dispose the future
of the game. With the call for the
conference went the announcement
that the New York university delegates
will support Il resolution that the
present game of football ought to be
abolished.
The invitation which was sent to
each of the colleges suggests three
questions for consideration. They are:
Ought the present game of football to
he abolished; if not, what steps should
be taken to secure it's thorough reform?
If abolished, what game or games may
be possible in its place?
