SUGGESTION BOX" A NOVEL IDEA OF
 ALDERMAN JACKSON

Alderman-elect Horace H. Jackson of the Fifth district wants ideas and sug- gestions from the electors and women of his district as the needs of the dis trict and in order to receive these communications he will have a hand somc oak box placed on the corner of North avenue and Wood avenue to be known as the Suggestion Box"
 Mir. Jackson says that there are many things that contribute toward the betterment of the district which are noticeable to residents likely to es- cape the notice of the alderman from the district. In order that these mat ters might be brought before the Com mon Council he urged the people re- siding in the 5th district to use the Suggestion Box.
 At first he did not intend to invite the ladies to contribute. But on sec ond thought he concluded there would be many things the fair sex would like to suggest and he invites them to send in as many hints as they see fit.
 The only communications the alder man-elect will not pay any attention to will be those which do not carry the name and the address of the sender. No attention will be paid to anonymous communications

 line through the Bronx the New Haven will ere long acquire a new entrance into New York which to some extent will divert business from the Grand Central terminal On the other hand, from the upper end of its Westchester extension only a small gap will remain 10 be spanned to connect with the New Haven system at or not Tar rom Brewsters station With that connec- ton made along with it's new entrance into New York the New Haven com pany would have an additional line in- to New England. which can be used for freight and to a much less extent passenger business and. what is or with it's Poughkeepsie bridge system and its Ontario & Western line for western and coal business
 This, 1t is claimed. is one of the most significant features of the New Ravens terminal work at New York and its Westchester extension
 As bearing upon this ultimate pro- ject. it Is recalled that under the con- tract signed some time ago by the New Haven and the New York Cen tral companies for the use of the Grand Central terminal it was pro. vided that the New Haven payments should be, based upon actual business entering the terminal property, This was a point upon which the negotia- tipns of the New Haven and the New York Central were halted for some time

SENSATIONAL SMASH

tspecIal from united Press.l

New York. Nov. s.-A smash in cot ton future. quite as sensational as any advance in the recent movement. took place at the opening of the cotton market to-day. Prices generally broke from 22 to B points while at one time on the call January was ofr points from Saturdays close
 December sold under IA cents on the call and later January also fell below that level.
 The break cauoht -1any stop orders that nobody thought on Saturday would be reached. The pit was a good buyer on the break but the pressure on outside liquidation was so heavy that the demand was satiated quickly. Wall street in this also purchased on the decline. There were fluctuations of from to 10 points between sales.
