NO MORE HIGH SALARIES
PAID BY CORPORATIONS
Wall Street Rumor That
$4,000 Is Maximum for
the Future.

NEW YORK, January 21.-It came out
as a Wall street presumption today that
the day OF fancy salaries for the heads
of corporations is past, and that the max
imum henceforth will be $4,000.
The action Of the United States Steel
Corporation directors in recommending
that James A. Farrell, it's new president
receive $4,000 instead of the 500, 600
paid to w. L. Corey, resigned, was the
first symptoms Of reduction. The death
of Paul Morton, who received $4,000 as
president of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society. removes another OF the few
men whose service has commanded I'M
usual salaries, and gossip in financial
circles had it today that the Equitable
trustees were considering reduction to
$1,000 in the case Of Mr.. Morton's sue
cessOr who is as yet unnamed.
Record Made in 1905.
A record in high salaries was establish
ed in 1905. when Richard A. McCurdy' $
salary as president of the Mutual Life
Insurance Company was increased from
100000 to $4,000 a year. The Arm
strong committees investigation brought
a reduction and Charles A. Peabody, the
present head Of the Mutual Life. now
draws. but xJO,OOO a year
Outside OF New York there are few
salaries at the fifty-thousand- dollar mark
With the possible exception of one or two
two bank presidents in Chicago, no bank
official in the west is now known to COM
mand more than 5000 a year.
Readjustment Is General.
Some of the industrial corporations do
better than that, as a result Of the con-
solicitations Of the past few years, but
since the many mergers Of 10OO-19O1
there has been decided readjustment in
salaries as a result of the general de-
mand from stockholders and bondhold-
ers everywhere for more economical man.

forts were made by President Gompers
to suppress resolution to appropriate

floor of the convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. Shortly be-
fore adjournment for the day Delegate
A. ]. Gallagher, of California, inquired
Of the president whether a resolution
could be presented after today. saying
he had an important resolution bear
ing on the Mcnamara case which he
had been asked to withhold pending
presidents report, which was expected
to deal with that subject. Gompers
replied that no resolution could be Of
fered after midnight tonight.
Gallagher said he would ask the
convention to bear the fact in mind
that he had withheld the resolution
by request if he attempted to offer it
later.
In reply to the question Gompers
said the delegate could move to sub
stitute a-resolution for portion of a
committee report. 1t is understood

BELIEVE THAT COTTON
is A "SURE THING"
BY Associated Press.

Dalhart, Tex, Nov. 16.-Believing
that cotton is a "sure thing" in the
Texas panhandle, although the first
bale was marketed only a little more
than a week ago, the farmers in the
territory north of the Canadian river
are uniting in an effort to plant from
five to ten acres each next season.
There are about ten counties in the
district where the experiment will be
made.
Until this year the growth of cotton
in the panhandle was considered very
doubtful. This year. however, in
some places one half to a bale per acre
was produced on imported seed.

ING THAT MOTHER OF MUIR
DERED GIRL KNOWS MORE
THAN SHE HAS TOLD.
gv Associated Press.


Miami, Fla, Nov. 16.-A sensation
was sprung this afternoon in the trial
of P. C. Cox, charged with the murder
Of Miss Hettie PARCEL. when L. T.
Holbrook, on whom the defense relied
to support the suicide theory, gave
contrary evidence.
Holbrook had found a pair Of eye
glasses near the river where the body
was found, but swore the glasses
placed in evidence today were not the
ones he had found The glasses had
been in the custody OF the mother OF
the girl. The Inference of the witness
was that substitution had been made.
The witness also testified that Mrs.
PARCEL had told him she knew the
contents of the mysterious package
that Cox took to the river. but would
never tell.
d. L. Ailer testified TO the presence
of a girl on the river boulevard the
night of the murder, but said he could
not tell whether the girl was white or
black.
The defense introduced witnesses
purporting to controyert the testimony
given by witnesses for the state Law
renee, who told of the carrying by the
defendant in his buggy of a mysteri-
Gus package from a. deserted house to
q point on the Miami river where the
body of the dead girl was found.
The theory Of the defense Is. that
Cox's buggy is not large enough to
hold two persons and package con-
tanning the body of another. Several
witnesses testified to the identity of a
narrow boxed buggy exhibited by the
defense, but would not swear that Cox
was driving in that particular buggy
on the night of the alleged murder,
]. D. Girtman testified that Cox
owned a larger buggy in which his
family rode in shortly after the killing,
but he did not know whether Cox was
