report before them would discover
facts which he, as National secretary
was blind to, we would ask IL he will
attempt to continue to hold the office
or will he place his resignation in the
hands of the national board of direc-
tors and gracefully retire to private
life for the good and welfare of the
organization?
Mr.. LaBeaume has been secretary Of
our association since its organization.
He has seen 1t grow from its infancy,
but with the widening of it's scope of
influence and the rapid strides for
ward he has failed to keep up with
the procession. In fact the associa
ton has outgrown Mr.. LaBeaume just
as successfully as Lrswines enter
prise outgrows the older heads and de-
mands younger and more progressive
blood for it's success. No business or
organization can stand still. 1t must
either go forward or backward. Re-
alizing this fact. the true friends OF
the Travellers Protective Association.
foreseeing the needs of the future,
have for several years advocated a
change at the head of our organization.
Missouri and the friends of Mr.. La
Beaume have made most bitter and
personal fight for his retention. Three
times have they almost lost their fight
against those desiring to place the T.
p A. on a more advanced plane and
as last resor his followers have re-
sorted to sentiment and personalities
to turn the tide which seemed to be
flowing strongly against them. And
by a most narrow margin they were
able to elect him. And now comes the
disclosures which conclusively prove
that the convention of the "insur-
gents" and "disorgarizers" as the an.
ti-LaBeaume delegates were always
called by the Missouri crowd.
The indications point very strongly
to the fact that Mr.. LaBeaume has al
lowed Henschew full sway in the ma
tional office-allowed him to handle
the cash and thus be able to lift out
such accounts as the necessities
from time to time demanded. He

terests of the association as secreta-
ry-treasurer should naturally be ex-
pected to do. He has had his eyes
closed to things he should have seen
and discovered. Henschew has IA
ken himself from the crowded throng.
Will Mr., LaBeaume remove himself AS
a block in the way of progress of our
association?

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Nov. 24--The cotton market was very nervous and unsettled again today with prices working lower result of pre-holiday liqiuidation and more aggressive bear pressure, the close being barely steady at net decline of 2@10 points.
 The market opened steady at unchanged prices to decline of points on the active months, in response to lower cables than due and local selling in spite of oullish crop es- timaes. The failureo these estimates in eluding oen from a prominent Southern pn- per wghiCh placed the yield at 10. 157. 900 bales. exclusive of Iinters and rspacks to stimulate fresh buying seemed to encourage the bears to greater aggresslyeness than they had shown recently and prices sold off to net loss of 1o@1s points shortly after the call.
 Around 143s for January and 14.7s for May. it looked as though there was much lefs long cotton coming on the market. and renewal of support from some of the Lu.l leaders caused a rally to within 3m4 points of last nights close during the middle of the day.
 Reports of n better spot dema nd from New England. and steady interior markets | in the South helped this advance, but res newal of bear pressure in the late trading sent prices off again and the market was very unsettled during the last half hour | The close was within 4a5 points of the low est on active months.
