TIES

Down in Van Buren, county, which
has been dry for number of years,
the wet element are putting up the
same sort of an offensive fight that
they are in Gratiot county. Petitions
were circulated and presented TO the
board of supervisors bu they found
that the papers did not bear a proper
number of legal names TO be valid,
with the result that they were turned
down. Garfield Flanders. a druggist
of Bloomingdale, asked Judge L. B.
DesVoignes for a mandamus order
ing the board to show why they
should not order an election held
but the judge quashed the proceed
ings the latter part of last week AS
a result the case will probably be
carried to the supreme court as was
done here.

A number OF friends met at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Overmire, on
Saturday, February 5th Besides
their friends in Arcadia and Alma,
two sleighloads came from Pleasant
Valley. Games and music occupied
the attention of the company until
supper was announced If anybody
doubts that oyster stew is good just
ask-we will mention no names.
After supper guessing contest was
held for the benefit of the Sunshine
club. The prize was chocolate
cake Each ticket allowed two
guesses on the contents of the cake,
but who would have suspected that
it contained a little crockery dog?
AS no one guessed right each con-
testant was allowed draw for the
cake Charles Hooper won the cake.
The company broke up at a late hour,
voting Mr.. and Mrs. Overmire the
best of entertainers.

JERSEY IRON MEN
ASK LOWER RATE
ON TEXAS ROADS
First Gun in Contest for South
ern Trade Fired by
NOrtherners.

NEW YORK. Oct. 17.-New Jersey
iron men are trying TO induce the Texas
Railroad Commission to reduce freight
rates on cast-iron pipe from Galveston
to Texas common points. 1t is practi-
cally a contest for Texas trade between
these producers, who ship by the water
route from New York and Philadelphia
to Galveston, and the iron manufac-
turers of Alabama and Tennessee.
The former insist that the inland
rates of SO from Galveston cut off their
profits and favor their Southern COM
petitors. They want it reduced to S2.1O
The commission gave the Eastern
petitioners a hearing recently at which
Hardy Greenwood. of Dallas, agent for
the r. D. Wood Company, of Camden,
made the argument in their behalf, ac-
companying his brief of the case with
a petition signed by mayors and bust
ness men of a number of inland Texas
towns, including Dallas, Sherman,
Paris, Waco and Denison. He alleged
advances In rates from Galveston, eff
fective since December, 1909, and Janu-
airy. 1910, have killed schooner COM
petition in the iron shipping business
thoroughly.

MORE CHEERFUL FEELING
IN THE STEEL TRADE

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Though the
steel market continues a rather quiet
one sentiment in the trade is distinct
ly more cheerful and the belief is
widespread that a revival of buying by
the railroads is imminent.
Prices of the leading products are be-
ing firmly held in anticipation of an
early revival of demand, and light
finished lines continue in good de-
mand.
Practically every steel company Of
Importance has enlarged its capacity
since the late panic and should there
be a decided turn for the better in the
trade the steel corporation as well rs
the independents will be afforded an
opportunity to show unprecedented
earnings.
\ It was reported from Birmingham
that the Southern Iron and Steel Com
pany had purchased the Weller rail
min and forge plant. which was in the
hands Of a receiver. BY this acquisi-
ton the Southern Iron and Steel Com
pany can without great cost transfer
steel binets and slabs from the present
plant to the new one and convert the
steel into marketable rails quickly.

UNUSUAL ACTIVITY IN
PRINT CLOTH MARKET,

FALL RIVER. Oct. 1.-THE print
cloth market showed much activity last
week. and the total sales are estimated
at 1870, 900 pieces. There was good de-
mand for convertibles and print cloths,
and a very good business was put
through. Sateens and twills came in
for much attention from buyers, and
while there were disagreements in the
matter of prices, a good-sized business
was accomplished.
Buyers have awakened to the fact
that mills do not care to do business
on an Improbable basis, and the re-
quests for recessions were small. Brok-
ers and mill treasurers anticipate 1
mild but gradual change In market con-
ditions soon, and they expect that bust
ness will become brisk during the early
months of next year and that nearly
all the makes manufactured by the
mills in this city will be benefited to
some extent.
While buyers have shown a willing
ness to trade at prices which We're
named by the mills. the asking prices
on the part of mill treasurers were ac-
cepted by purchasers only when goods
desired were known to be scarce, or
were wanted very soon.

H COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, oct. 1.-THE cotton
market opened easy AT a decline of 3
to II points under liquidation and ag-
gressive bear pressure inspired by the
easy cables. talk of less Urgent trade
demand and good weather in South.
Reports that the West Indian storm
was again heading for the belt, ana
support from some of the big inter
ests, caused slight rallies, but there
was a lot of cotton for sale, and the
market ruled very nervous, with prices
during the middle of the morning some
% to "A points net lower. Liverpool
and the South were sellers here and q
good Many private reports were re-
ceived, claiming a less active demand
and freer offering of spots in the in
terror.
With later weather reports indicat-
ing that there were two tropical storms,
one m~enacing the South Atlantic and
the other the Central Gulf coast, the
market steadied up during the middle
Of the morning on support from lead
ing bulls covering and fresh buying
for long account. Prices at midday
were about Is to is points net lower.

The CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO. Oct. 17.-Heavy selling to-
day beat back wheat after an opening
advance. A fresh rainfall in the Argen-
tine furnished a pretext for the bears.
Furthermore, the United states depart
ment of agriculture reported the crop
of continental Europe as promising to
be the second largest on record and
stated the outlook in the southern
hemisphere to be good. Bullishness at
the start was due to a decrease in
worlds shipments and in the total on
passage. Opening prices were I'M
changed to a higher. with December
at 951s. to s5ss. a rise Of a shade to M
u. Then there was a fall to 95A.
With the country still selling freely,
corn was easy. December opened a
shade to lsdK down at 46A to AZ and
declined to 1873.
Local spectators pounded oats. De-
cernber started a shade to b0A off at
3OM to S0% and dropped to 30AG%.
A larger run of hogs took away sup
port in provisions. First sales were
~ to 12lk615 lower, with the January
option at 1850 for pork, 10.621s to 1856
for lard and Gas for ribs.

HALF MILLION OF FRESH
WATER PEARLS ON MARKET.

NEW YORK. oct. 17.-Western deal
ers have been bringing to Maiden
Lane some of the finest fresh water
pearls ever seen there. The pearling
season on the upper Mississippi is near
its close because of the approach OF
cold weather and so the fishermen, WI
have been gathering pearls for months
are h~urrying them to New York for the
holiday trade.
The value of the pearls found in
the Mississippi and its tributaries since
the fishing began last spring is estI-
mated at $500. 900 or more. Maiden Lane
dealers assert that the American pearls
are sold as Oriental in Paris and on
don and that returning tourists are
regularly paying duties on Mississippi
river pearls which they buy abroad.
The highest price paid this season for
a single pearl was $1,000.
