Washington, June 5.-President Taft
today created a sensation when he re-
buked Col. Joseph Garr2rd, command
ing the cavalry post at Fort Myer, Va.
for disapproving Private F. Blooms
effort for promotion because OF Blooms
Jewish parentage. Garrard's endorse
ment characterized Jews as ''unde-
sirable social associates"
Taft directed the secretary of war to
investigate the matter and in doing so
stamped the expressions as those of
narrow race prejudice.
The war department held there were
no grounds for a court martial an Of
ficer being ST liberty to express his
belief regarding the availability of any
candidate for promotion. The incident
was, practically closed with the re-
buke.
Bloom, following the advice of Col.
Roosevelt, entered the army to work
for promotion. He had asked Roose-
welt for an appointment to West Point.

Of w. p. Brown, one of the prominent

Mr.. Brown had come here for the pur-

when cotton during August sold at 20
cents pound Mr. Brown refused to

Bull Leaders Appear in ~ Y.
and is BulAsh on the Old Crop

The supplies of raw material and
manufactured goods at the end of the
season will be so small that both will
practically corner themselves and next
year a very large crop will be abso-
lutely necessary for actual require
ments and to fill up the holes.
"The new crop in nearly all sec
tions is needing rain and the general
public seems to be of the opinion that
this crop is an early one, which is not
the case. South Texas, South Georgia
and South Alabama win get early cot
ton. The rest of the territory is nor
mai to late and the present drouthy
condition over almost the entire belt
makes an already late crop later"
