WALTER MOORE ON
 UNDERWOOD BOOM
Thinks Democrats Will Make Great Mistake If They Nominate
 Governor Wilson

Many of the Alabamians who are going to support oscar w. Underwood for president, are opposed to the idea of his accepting the vice presidential nomination in the event that he docs not land the first place on the ticket.
 "In case Underwood does not land the presidential nomination. stated Walter Moore, T would think it unwise were he to accept the vice presidential nomination if 1t were rendered.
 "In my opinion 1t would be wiser for him to decline, return to Congress, revise the tariff and in other respects con- tinue his good work until 1916. Then we will be in an excellent position to show the people whether or not we can elect a southern president of the United States.
 Mr. Moore stated that Alabama would be for Underwood first, last and all the time, but that the second choice of t,e state for president was Judson Harmon of Ohio. We would make a great mis- take by noI inating Woodrow Wilson, stated he. flor Wilson is a greater crank than Bryan ever was. l do not hold il safe to elect a school teacher 10 national office"
 MT. Moore stated that the democrats. after Underwood and Harmon, might consider Champ Clark, but Wilson, nev- CT.

WEEK DECLINE IN ] COTTON S2 POINTS II j.. . Il High Prices Made Monday
 and Low Figures on
 Saturday

New Orleans, September 23.-TThe net results of the week in the cotton mar ket were a decline of 79 to S2 points The high prices were made on Moh- day and the low prices on Saturday From the highest to the lowest there was a fall of 7S to S4 points; at the highest the trading months were un- changed to points under last week s close and at the lowest they were 7s to S4 points under.
 Prices made new low levels for the ason as the result of heavy and gem eral selling based on weakness in the the way to lower levels at all times; at first futures resisted but once the decline was started 1t became violent.
 News from the crop intensified the effect of the marking down of spot quotations. Open cotton was reported on larger scale to the extreme north erl limits of the belt than was ever Known before and labor was taxed to the utmost to keep up with the pick ings. The weather of the week was favorable, on the whole, fair weather and high temperatures DelHs IecoioSu over the larger part of the cotton coun- try Under these conditions spot buy CTS withdrew as much as possible from the spot market. Cable. messages rom Liverpool said that spinners were buy ing only to supply their current needs. This development made spot offerings look all the larger.
 Toward the end of the week. the pro- fesslonal element in the market, at least q good part of it, commenced to talk about reaction from the long de- cline, but enough fresh short selling came in right up to the close to keep the market sagging and the close was practically at the lowest.
 -> In the spot department prices lost 34c mlddling closing at 10 13-16c against II 9-16c last week, and 13Sc this week last year. Sales on the spot amounted to s71 bales against 211S last week, and 1113 this week last year; sales to arrive amounted to 9i75 bales against SS40 last week and 3753 this week last year z4 s
