Here we have had a quiet market, with the trade continuing bear ish on the depressing advices from eastern spinners, which brought about some selling for a reaction before sthe close of the day. A better demand was reported from the south ern mar kets for export to the continent. The trade here Is bearish in>its views. owing to the absence of any active demand.

REV. BECKER WILL REMAIN
AS PASTOR OF THE CHURCH

Yesterday morning Rev. James A.
Becker. pastor of the Congregational
church. who few days ago rendered
his resignation of the pastorate, an
nounced. In speaking OF the unani-
nous demand made by the congrega-
tion that he reconsider the resigna-
ton. that II the membership would
take a greater interest in the church
work ard be more loyal in their NOR
al support he would remain as pas
tor.
He spoke feelingly to the effect
that the members had not been as
hearty In their spiritual support of
the church as they should be. He
stated that this Indifference was not
confined to one church. but was no
ticeablc in many churches of the
country.
Following Rev. Becker's remarks
many of the members expressed
themselves on the subject and nearly
all agreed with Rev. Becker that the
moral and spiritual support should
be more pronounced and more loyal
Rev. Becker stated that unless
there is a disposition to improve
along this line that he would let his
resignation remain effective.

IN MOURNING FOR FRIEND
HE REQUESTS NO OBSERVANCE
Bishop Warren of Denver Feels Keen
ly and Deeply the Death Of Blsh-
op Andrews.-Saturday His
Birthday.


The Denver Post OF Saturday af-
ternoon said:
The Methodist ministers OF Dem
yer always plan to observe the birth
day of Bishop Warren by calling at
his home in a body. They planned
today to visit him. carrying a huge
bunch of American Beauty roses, one
for every year he is old. The recep-
tion was. however, called on on ac-
count Of the death of Bishop Andrews
In New York City on Tuesday. who
will be buried today III that city.
Bishop Warren was a close friend
of Bishop Andrews, and has been
deeply saddened by his death. He
knew that the annual custom of call
ing on his birthday would be observed
and requested that 1t be omitted this
year because of the death of the
New York bishop.
While some bishops have been re-
tired at 20 years of age. no one even
suggests that Bishop Warren be re-
tired, though today he celebrates a
birthday beyond 75. There is gen
eral feeling all over the church that
he is the strongest man on the epis-
copal board and that the church will
under no circumstances consent to
his retirement at this time. He does
not look or act over so. He knows
the condition OF the church as no
other man. He has three times been
around the world as inspector of the
property and work of worldwide
Methodism. He has no enemies. He
has a statesman's poise.
The general conference of the
church tried to move him to Chicago
four years ago because of his rare
ability in handling great problems,
and here Is located. many of the great
interests of this church. He is. how
ever. loyal Coloradoan and would
not consent to leave without a pro-
test.
Bishop Warren was elected to his
office in 1880. after a very successful
career as pastor III the largest church
es in Philadelphia and New York. In
spite of the restriction of his request
many friends called. today and paid
their respects and urged him to live
for another three-quarters of cen.
tury.

The popular delusion that beet su-

inferior to cane sugar for preserving
