of it. So he strolled over to Ger

TRUSTS ARE NOT HURT

That still Hurts.

Mr.. Taft says that the panic is about
over and that conditions have about
reached normal. That does not CORE
spond with the view Of the Chicago
board OF education that 1900 children
go to school hungry, partly because
their fathers cannot get employment
and because OF the increase In tie
cost OF living.
The Saturday Evening Post, OF re-
cent date, contains more statistics
showing that, according to the reports
OF the New York savings banks, the
number of accounts opened for the
year ending July ! was 1900 less
than for the year before, while the
number of accounts closed was $4,000
greater than the year before. The
amount deposited was $50. 100000 less
and the amount withdrawn $41 900 900
more This shows a large shrinkngc
in the savings Of the people OF that
state. And now comes New York

Opening Figures Show Very

FROST Is LARGE FACTOR

New York, September 2S.-The cotton
market had a sharp upturn during the

the gain, closing steady at a net adj

mated at 10000 bales. The market
opened firm at an advance of 13 to 20
points on active covering, foreign buy
ing and Wall street bull support Bet
ter cables than expected, showers and
rains in the belt over Sunday, and re-
ports of low temperatures in the south
west with a light frost in Oklahoma
were responsible for the upward move
ment. The advance to size for Octo-
Der, S.7Sc for January attracted heavy
realizing, however, under which prices
reacted several points, following the
western belt forecast for clear and
warmer weather, with business less ac-
tive after midday and the close at the
lowest prices of the day. Octob er
notices were estimated at only 10000
to 5000 bales and had no apparent
effect on the market.
Receipts at the ports. 54,oo7 bales,
against Al ia last week and 1877 last

the control and leadership of the market
remained in the same hands that have

Copper warrants in London declined and
copper securities there and here were
heavy in agreement. Dealings in United
States Steel also were below last weeks

of the corn market in declining on the
news of the freezing temperatures in the
southwest had the effect of convincing
sentiment that the crop was considered
safe from harm. The warm, dry weather
in fact, is known to have fastened the
maturing of the crop. The breaking OF
the long drought was given credit Tor

There were movements in industrial

could be said of the news of the day.
The further exchanges between the lead
ing controversialists in the present cam
of great corporations were regarded as
containing a threat of development cal
culated to prejudice the interests ~ those
corporations. Otherwise the political is
sue rather receded into the background.
Some analogy was drawn from the effect
on the London stock market of the de-
feat of the liberal government candidate
for the British parliament in the New
Castle district The London financial
community, like that of New York, rea-

Rumors of deals came into prominence
again in the New York speculation, in the
absence of more substantial developments.
Those affecting Rock Island were made

tails. AS Rock Island is under the neces-

obligations of it's subsidiary, the ST. Louis
