New Orleans, July 25-Cotton fu-
lures opened steady at a decline of 2
to 10 points on poor cables and good
crop accounts.
Liverpool was lower than due and
in addition sent over private messages
telling of the depressing effects of the
political situation, the fear of im>
pending strikes and prospects of poor
trade in India as the result of a bad
money situation.
The selling movement was not sutti-
GENTLY heavy to widen the initial de-
cline. The market acted oyersold and
when shorts tried to take profits they
nut prices up on themselves.
At the end of the first half hour
of business the list was to points
under yesterdays close.
The small recovery in the early
trading only served to bring out more
selling orders from sources that were
not we'll understood. 1t was at length
rumored that one of the leaders of
the bull clique has turned bear and
was accommodating huge inc of pur-
chases.

Manager Ford over the long distance
line Saturday night by the financial
hacker of the Eufaula team, accord
ing to statements made by Manager
Ford to the Times Recorder and 9TH
ers her.
Sunday, however, ne was induced 70
take the team to Eufaula at the re-
quest of members of the Eufaula
Board of Trade, who pledged protec-
ton and fair treatment to the visit
Ors.
How well this guarantee was car
ried out was evidenced in the tele-
grams from there yesterday, stating
that the team had been ordered from
the ball park by the financial hacker
of the local bunch, and two or three
fights precipitated upon the visitors
The people of Eufaula are not held
accountable for this discourtesy-nay
insult-but to individuals who backed
up the losing team.
In the morning game Wood and
Hooks were the battery for Americas
and won the seven-inning game by the
score of to 3. Fort McAfee was UNI
pire, and gave both teams fair treat
ment
In the afternoon game Wilder and
Hooks represented Americas and wcr
the nine-inning game by the score OF
3 to >. Eufaula in the meantime, had
demanded a change of umpires, and
Wood for the Americas team and a
member of the Eufaula team jointly
did the umpiring, but not to suit Eu-
faula.
The presence of the Americas team
there is most regretable, and the
wish is expressed among Americas
fans that, in the interest of peace, the
two teams play no more together
here, there nor elsewhere.

made upon them in the afternoon.
1t was about the worst proposition
the Americas team has ever tackled,
AMI never again is the slogan as re-
garls Eufaula.
In their rage at losing the last
game, that of the afternoon yesterday
the Eufaula management, it is said,
ordered the Americas team from the
grounds with the injunction never to
appear there again This gratuitous
insult was wholly unnecessary.
The only mistake the Americas
team made was in consenting to 80
