GOVERNOR BALDWIN
 DRAWN INTO DEBATE
 ANENT STONE CRUSHER
Especial from United Press. }

New Haven, June Ex-Governor Baldwin was dragged into the parti- san debate concerning the municipal stone crusher today. The present Re- publican administration has been crit icised by the Democrats who bought the stone crusher for buying stone from private contractors and allowing the crusher to remain idle
 Director of Public Works Eames in replying, today, submitted a letter. from Governor Baldwin in which ths Chief Executive of the State upholds the Republican side of the contro- versy.
 T am glad to see you are contern- plating the abandonment of attempt ing to quarry stone on West Rock Park" said the Governor. 'I doubr very much if the city can quarry there as cheaply as they can buy but be that as it may. it has always seemed to me unwise, after we had laid out a fine park to scar and mar 1t by resuming quarrying after prohi- biting it. It is taking a back track"

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE cotton mar
ket opened steady at an advance of 6
points on July from to points lower
on other positions, which were influenced
by disappointing cables and reports of
further showers in the southwest. The
scattering short interest appeared to have
been pretty we'll covered on the advance
Of yesterday, and when the western belt
forecast was published calling for I'M
settled weather and showers the market
turned still easier, with July selling off
to net loss of 9 points. while later
months sold about 13 to 16 points net
lower under liquidation and renewal of
bear pressure
better demand developed around
II 50 for new crop months. and the mar
ket became a little f1rmer late in the fore
noon on covering of shorts and bull sup
showing recovery TO nearly the closing
figures of Yesterday on August. while
later positions were to :, points up from
he lowest. Trade interests were moderate
buyers of the new crop. and the official
weather details for the western belt
showed high temperatures in Texas and
Oklahoma. which probably helped to
check selling of fall and deliveries. Spot
