shaken out confidence In any sustained rally:
in fact. we believe IL II had not been for the
prediction Of a severe cold wave tonight
In the central and eastern belt which drove
shorts to cover, that prices for the near
months would have broken below ten cents.
We like others had been led to believe that
when farmers could not obtain ten cents
fol, cotton in the interior they would quit
selling, thus Immediately bringing about
q sufficient reduction in spot offerings to
cause sDinners to sit mp and take notice.
This. no doubt. was the original intention
OF farmers. but the best Information we can
get indicates that at least throuGhout Texas
and In Mississippi the cotton now coming
out in such a large volume is for sale at the
market price and without thought of an
arbitrary limit. 1t would seem to follow.
therefore, that IL the producer is putting
his wares on the market for what they will
bring the time is not yet ripe to expect a
substantial upturn in prices. We are there
fore of the opinion that it would be wiser
to take the short side on all rallies until

what is your position in regard to the
French restaurants ~
MY position has never changed in the
matter of these restaurants. They have
each a liquor license and il is optional
with the police commissioners whether
they sgrant or refuse license to those
places One man on the board, a Mr.
Hutton, demanded that the licenses be
not granted until the rooms were taken
out | protested then, because such rooms
had always existed and they could not be
taken away WITHOUT running the business
You have them here and ii is an estab-

the stand that l did.
Now they hired Abraham Ruef who
is also a lawyer.

Schmitz that it had been charged that
his brother. Herbert, had an interest in
a notorious resort known as the Munich

that Herberts interest was really the

Schmitz Talked Freely.

Mayor Schmitz seemed to be little con-
cerned over his Indictment. Coming up
the bay on the steamer he chatted freely
about the case. He said he had not an
ticipated that he would be indicted, but
he said he could face his accusers without
fear.
Mayor Schmitz was asked whether he
had heard the reports that there had
been reign OF terror in San Francisco.
and he replied that he knew of no reign
of terror and could not believe that con-
ditions had not been exaggerated.

BENJAMIN Ide Wheeler, one of the

in unmeasured terms the conduct of
civic affairs at San Francisco. In this
he but echoes the sentiment Of every
honest man in this state, regardless of
politics, But the expression of condem-
nation is only the beginning of wisdom
1t will amount to nothing unless II
shall be followed by the most vigorous
action. Words are empty without
deeds. We are now in the midst of a.

graft. not only in San Francisco hut

machine consists largely OF Abe Ruef
