This is the hour at which the Italian
ultmatum to Turkey expired and fol-
lowed a session Of the cabinet at which
the Turkish reply was considered and
found unsatisfactory.
Though every indication pointed TO this
action by the royal government there was
always a possibility that the good offices
of other governments would be success
ful in avoiding hostilities, and when the
final decision Of the cabinet was an
nounced the excitement throughout the
city was intense.
Throughout the earlier hours OF the
day the papers had issued special edi-
tions announcing that the Italian neet
was moving in plain sight Of the coast
of TripoH and intimating that war might
be declared at any moment
The minister OF foreign affairs, signor
Di San GiuIlano. received the telegraph
reply from the Turkish ambassador this
morning and Immediately went into con-
ference with his associates in the min

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
TRADE CONDITIONS
Condition of the Markets as Told in
Dun's Weekly Review of Trade and
Finance.
The Week.

The Week.
Not only has the recent increased
activity in the leading industries and
trades been maintained, but there is
distinct improvement in business
confidenc both East and West, while
in the South the largest cotton crop
ever harvested is a favorable factor
There are signs, moreover of some
disposition to anticipate the future, in
stead of confining purchases to imme-
diate necessities. Taking everything
into consideration, November has been
the best month of the year. In the
dry goods trade the reports are scarce
~ less encouraging than those in iron
ana steel, and notwithstanding the
temporarily disturbing effect of the
"ecl'he this week in raw cotton, large
orders have been received by the cot
ton mills, while the Fall River print
market has transacted the biggest
weeks business of the year
The cotton Market.
Finally bcraking out of its rut cot
ton turned about this week and went
down hill into new low ground for
the year For some time past prices
had hung deadlocked above cents
with traders waiting for something
TO sway the market definitely i'm eith-
er one direction or the other. and ot
last the monOtOny was relieved Inv in
| dlcatlons Of an easier spot basis at
the South. Offerings there were re-
ported more plentiful at slight CON
cesSions, and this was the signal for
an outburst Of selling that brought on
tion quotations to a level not seen
since the spring of 1908. The decline
moreover was accelerated by further
depression at Liverpool and. while re-
ceSSlonS were not great. il was large
~ because the short account were dis
posed to cover on the eve of the holt
day. There was also some buving nv
lraoe interests on scale down. but
'hc demand from this source was not
especially active and when business
was resumed the downward movement
was carried still further. Sentiment
IN 1act, remains distinctly bearish and
lhe spot markets at the South will be
watched with the closest attention as
an index of the farmers attitude. That
the biggest crop i'm history has been
grown there seems no reason to oues

STATE LOSES SUIT
 FOR CONVICT HIRE
SUPREME COURT AFFIRMS DE- CISION OF LOWER COURT FA-
 VoRlNG BRICK COMPANY.
About $t8,oo0 Was Involved in This Case, Which Had Been in the
 Courts for Some Time.

Little Rock.-By a decision of the supreme court, the Arkansas Brick X Manufacturing Company will not be required to pay the S1S,000 alleged to be due the state for the hire of conyicts, and thus the decision of the Pulaski chancery court, which dis missed the suit for want of equity, is sustained
 The suit grew out of the l0-year contract of the Arkansas Brick &5 Manufacturing Company in which the state, through the penitentiary board, agreed to furnish the labor of 30e conyicts for 10 years. When the con tract expired in 1909, the penitentiary board claimed that the brick company was indebted to the state for con vict labor in the sum of $12,S96, pre- vious to December 31, 1908, and $4, 2S7 from January to January II, 1909, making a total of ST., ,723. The brick company admitted that pre- Vious to December 31, 1908, it owed the state $11,374, and that from Jan uary 1, 1909, to January IA of that year it owed the state $2,15S. As an offset to this account, the brick company presented a claim against the state for S1O0,OOO on account of labor not furnished by the state dur ing the term of the contract. The brick company claimed that at the termination of it's contract the state owed it the labor of convicts for 2S0, GS3 days, and that by failure of the state to furnish the labor it was damaged more than the amount of the claim made against them by the state, and the suit was dismissed for want of equity. It was then appealed to the supreme court, which tribunal upheld the decision of the lower court, ending the case.
