INDEPENDENTS,

CONTEST ELECTION
Disappointed Assembly Aspir-
ants Consult Progressive
Leaders on Court Action.

Wilton K Capps and Valentine b
Kane, who We're Independent contest
ants for the Republican assembly
nomination at Tuesdays primaries are
comforting with the leaders of the Pro-
gressiYe Republicans TO determine
whether or not it would be advisable
to contest the election. The claim of
the two independents is that, through
ineXpert poll working by the Progress
ives Republican Assembly ballots We're
thrown out in every district in the
county
The names Of eleven Regular and
eleven Progressive candidates FOR As
sembly appeared on each Republican,
primary ballot. Below these We're the
names of the tive independent nomi-
rees. Capps and aKne declare that
Progressive workers at the polls in
many cases gave to voters ballots on
which the regular nominees were
scratched, but on which the names of
the Progressive and independent nomi-
nees We're allowed tao stand. This left
thirteen Assembly candidates instead Of
eleven and inValidated the ballots
which, of course, were thrown out when
the election officers began their tally
Kane and Capps have q further kick
They declare that on presenting their
petitions they requested the county
clerk to bracket their names as the
Progressive and Regular names were
bracketed. This was not done This
they say. was another cause Of many
ballots being declared invalid.

Liquidation Becomes General
On the Exchange
AND PRICES DECLINE
Days Break Is From 10 TO 23 Points
Old Crop Positions Show the
Greatest Loss-The Close
Is Steady

New York, February 16-Liquidation by
tired holders, such as has been more OF
less in evidence since the beginning of the
week, became general during todays
trading in the cotton market and prices
steady at the close, showing a loss of ID
TIC % points for the day, old crop positions
showing the greatest loss.
The market opened steady at a decline
of to 4 points, and after few minutes
of hesitation turned weak in response to
disappointing cables reports that Man
chesters spinners had decided to continue
short time until April 26 continued talk
of a slacl1ening trade demand, claims of
free offerings of spot cotton from the
south, local bear pressure. and liquida-
ton. At first there was no sign of SELL
ing for the account of the concentrated
long interest in May contracts, but as
the decline continued, uncovering stop
loss orders on scale down, May con-
tracts began TO come out in considerable
blocks, and during the afternoon 1t looked
as if the big longs were either abandon

accompanied by further rumors of a
weakening southern spot situation, and

tracts sold at 1453c, or Is points net low
err. Below 1a,6Oc for May there was an
increased demand from strong spot
houses and as the reports of easier spots
reached the south, numerous private adj
vices were received contradicting the
rumors. These reports and the better
character of the buying at the decline
impaired a somewhat steadier tone to
the market toward the close, and last
prices were some to points up from

THE Improvement of the Warrior and

WHEAT MAKES
A SHARP GAIN
Advances One Cent in Last
Fifteen Minutes
CORN IS ALSO STRONG
Provisions From Weak Start Work
In 10 Strong Finish Helped BY
Upward Trend of Grain
Prices
CORN rs ALSO STRONG

Chicago, February 16-Wheat capped a
steady advance with sharp gain of l
cent In the last 10 minutes of trading,
closing ia to cents up. Corn was also
strong with less spectacular activity and
oats kept a firm front during the day. Pro-
visions from weak start worked UP to a
strong finish, helped on by the upward
trend of grain prices. Prices In the wheat
pit early took an upward trend and held
the ground gained with apparently little
effort under strong demand, which
was reinforced by a repetition of the
crop damage reports. Shortly before the
close sharp advance of / cent in the
price of the May delivery was caused
by the purchase of more than 100000
bushels by an influential concern. The
other futures advanced less sharply. The
upward movement carried prices general
1y from 15s to 2H cents up from the low
point. May went from 81 1925 to s1,145s.
The close was strong nearly at the
high point, with May at $t.141s@1 1873,
2 cents higher than final figures yester-
day.
A good demand for corn from country
traders kept the prices strong throughout
the session, futures advancing generally
from q to l cent. Cash corn developed
firmness and the offerings in the pit while
large were readily absorbed. May prices
went up from. 671s to 6SA cents The
close was strong at nearly the high point
with May at 6Sis@6SA cents, Scent higher
than yesterdays final quotation.
Oats exhibited less strength than the
other grains and new investors and spec
ulators were the most active participants
on the buying side. A good shipping de-
mand further contributed to the firmness.
Fluctuations kept within narrow limits,
ranging from u to 5s-eent. May went up
from 475s to 1914 cents. The other futures
made ia less advance. The close was
firm with May " cent up at 4S1s@4S14c.
A comparatively weak start in the pro-
visions pit was changed TO material
advance later in the day by a strong
demand supplemented by the strength in
wheat. Prices advanced generally from
171b to 37h cents all of the products
closing strong Final figures for the May
product were: Pork, $685. 20 cents high
er; lard, s12.721a, 20 cents higher; ribs.
s12. 40, 221a cents higher than the final
figures yesterday.
