 WEATHER CONDITIONS. Generally fair weather prevails east of the Mississippi River, but rain or snow was general in the middle Rocky Mountain re- zion, the Missouri valley and the extreme northwestern portion of the country. In the west gulf states also. light scattered rains occurred. Temperatures have re- mained nearly stationary in the cotton belt during the past 24 hours. The barometer is still low in most of the western half of the country and relatively high pressure continues in the eastern half. The pres sure distribution will not change sufficiently in the next two days to cause much change in the weather in Alabama, fair weather with moderate temperatures being expected to continue.

SPOTS SHOW DECLINE LOCAL DEMAND WAS, HOWEVER, VERY
 FAIR. Promise of Better Things in Knowledge That Mills Must Soon Buy-Gossip That Such Time is Not
 Far Distant.

At 8 s-1se Monday. local spots showed a depreciation from the 1I-is quotation of Saturday Through s epncatenation of de- pression movements headed by McFadden and Weld in Liverpool, the decline was caused, according to local gossip.
 Demand locally was fair. according to merchants. though little response was made through sales. The selling being light, the storage of yesterdays receipts rather exceed the sales.
 Holders are not selling freely, the reti- cence being the result, more than likely, of the decrease in spot quotations, and in the germ of optimism which the advocates Of the holding idea have disseminated.
 Promise of better times and better prices comes from the knowledge that the mills must soon buy preparatory to the increase in fall output, and that the staple must be procured. even at an increase. Thus the holders anticipate a msrked increase within Q short while. That this time of plenty is not far in the future is easily to be gath cred from the gossip which announces the activity of the New England mills, and in the marked improvement in the New York dry goods market.
 Some notable increase in receipts is an- ficipated locally by the ideal weather for picking. and propitious circumstances foS the maturing of the top crop.

According to the New York Times
Gov. Hughes supporters fear that
Sec Taft's organization will under
mine him. This Is exactly the stu
alton In Vermont. The strength of
the latter Is developing every day In
this state.--Waterbury Record.
Still there is no Taft league in Yer
mont and no Taft organization Of any
sort. The truth is that as the cam
paign progresses Taft developes
strength while the others have lost It..
Personally he is not a bit superior to
Hughes or some OF the other candi-
dates but through education, training
and experience he is the best fitted for
the presidency Of any candidate in
fifty years and Vermonters who at
first didn't think much about II either

Rev Mervin B. Jacobs. pastor Of the
Baptist church at Pine Plains, N. Y.
was asked to choose between his
church and his Elk lodge. He chose
the latter and now is minus pastor

that he may enter his pulpit again II
he will give up his afiiliatiOn with the
Elks, but he declines. II am not that
kind OF q man." he says, When take
a stand. l know that am right. l
will stick to my position"
All the trouble began when Rev. Mr..
Jacobs joined the Benevolent and Pro-
tective Order Of Elks. Many Of his
parishioners at that time disapproved
When a short time later he was made
chaplain OF the lodge, opposition be-
came open and he was requested to re-
sign from the lodge or to give up his
passionate. He refused to do either
and the church members declared the
pulpit vacant.
A prominent Elk in this city yester
day discussing the matter said that 1t
was very evident that the people Of
that church had no conception of the
principles on which the Elks order Is
founded, else they would have known
that there is no conflict between the
church and the lodge.
AS for ministers belonging to the
Elks, only recently priest, Rev. FIR.
Reilly, chaplain at the Brooklyn navy
yard, was elected exalted ruler OF the
New York grand lodge. Ministers are
