Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, not only
when the latter was president. but a,

city Monday night came out f1atfooted
for United States Senator Robert NJ
LaFollette, OF Wisconsin, as the next
Republican candidate for the presi

CnreservedIy. MIR. Pinchot lauded
the statesman from the Northern lake

Toilette hitherto had been man
ahead OF his times--that years ago
LaFollette enunciated policies which
caused him to be proclaimed radical,
but which We're now accepted as wise
and just
Within the last year, the speaker
declared, there had come about a
capitalization Of opinion throughout
the nation in favor of man who
would be both of independent ideas
and progressive.

There was pause of expectation.

Il would like to tell you few
things" said Mr.. Pinchot, about Bob
LaFollette."
Then came a fairly hearty burst OF
applause from his hearers-members
of the insurgent club to the number Of
about $50. who were having their an
nual dinner.
Does your sentence since this
morning." he was asked later, mean
since Colonel Roosevelt's printed
statement this morning that he would
not again be a candidate?"
"Of course 1t does" cheerfully re-
sponded the former Forester.
Then Colonel Roosevelt is eliminat.

Colonel Roosevelt has eliminated

advocate. Il don't even know IL Col.

Senator Has the Courage.
That part of Mr.. Pinchot's speech |
dealing with the next presidential can
didate was as follows:
For q leader we need a man who |
has honesty and courage. Bob LaFol-
lette has shown that he has the cour-
age, because he has been brave enough |
to be beaten again and again. and yet
to stay until he triumphed in the end.
And no one questions that he has hon

There ts only one more attribute

Of this ia in the manner in which Wis

early career now admit they couldn't
get along without him."
Il make no predictions about the
party's nomination. but l
will say that before long it will be
clear that whoever is nominated must

HEAVY OFFERINGS BRING COTTON DOWN Close Steady But Only a Point or Two Up From
 the Lowest Mark

New York October 14.-Recent bear
 sh predictions of cents for cotton materialized in today's market when both October and January contracts sold at that level while every month in list made new low records under continued heavy southern offerings and continued local pressure. The close was steady but only a point or two up from the lowest at q net decline of from 12 to 21 points.
 The market opened steady at de- cline of to points in response to lower Liverpool cables. There was some trade buying around the initial figures and profit taking by shorts was extremely heavy but rallies of or 5 points were quickly succeeded by re- newed weakness and in the late trad ing prices sold off to a net loss of 14 and IS points on the active posi- tions. Business was very active for u Saturday with the continued good weather in the south suggesting big receipts at interior points today and the probability of heavy southern hedge selling against them at the opening of the market here on Monday morn ing undoubtedly inspired much of the local pressure.
 Private cables attributed the decline in Liverpool to liquidation by disap- pointed buyers owing to continued free offerings of actual and while compar- atively few private reports were re- ceived here during the morning from the southern markets, the heavy south ern selling was taken as reflecting continued weather conditions in the in- terior
 There were indications around the ring that some recent strong local buyers were liquidating on the de- cline and it was claimed that old shorts who had covered above 9. cents were putting out their cotton again around the cent level.
 Houses with southern connections and spot houses were particularly heavy sellers here just before the close and the broker of a leading spot in- terest was the first to sell January contracts at g cents, representing de- cline of ATS points in the high price reached by January deliveries last June and a break of about 267 points since the Sth of September
 Receipts today, 10000 bales against 64,931 last week and 74,690 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, 1853 against b2S1 last year and at Houston 21,1S1 against 26,728 last year. T,,&-

CHICAGO WHEAT TURNS VERY WEAK Receipts of Wheat Large in Canada and
 America

Chicago, October 14.-Confronted by prospects of additional increased supply, the wheat market today turned weak. night Corn declined 2sd1sc to 1ac net and oats 1se to hc. Provisions closed from unchanged to 5c advance.
 Receipts of wheat were large, not only in the United States, but also across Inc Canadian line. Arrivals for the week at primary points reached more than 2,OQ0,- GOO bushels in excess of the total a year ago. Furthermore, 1t was shown that the European crop has proved to be the .h!rc largest on record and not great way be- low the plumber crop of 1909. Bulls were still more discouraged by learning that cash sales here had not amounted to nearly as generous an aggregate as most traders believed and that the transactions were not chiefly in the soft winter grade. In consequence the market at no time displayed any sign of being elastic and the close was at almost the lowest of the session.
 December nuctuated from 9S7sc to 99is6 99L, with last sales 9SJsc, q net loss of ssc.
 Fair weather predictions led many ionas to reduce their holdings of corn and this resulted in weakness. December ranged from 6lsc to 1aqs4c, closing 1hc lower at 64ls464l4c.
 Cash grades were only in fair demand. No. yellow finished at 72472Ac. Oats ruled a triflo steadier than other grains. Top and bottom figures for December were 417s9isc and I7s.c, with the close hc off at 4lss. Provisions trailed upward aft CT holding around the best. At the last gong pork was slightly higher and tfe remainder of the list either unchanged or at an advance of not over 5c.
 Future quotations were as follows:
