Bugal Corps Established

Auburn, October 29.-(Speeial )-The old order passes, here at Auburn. and gives place to an innovation in the military department. For years past the cadets nave been called to roll calls and all other as ssemblies by the sound of drum. Will liam Rousseau and Oscar Bickerstaff, two faithful and proud colored attaches of tho Alabama Polytechnic Institute, were the drum corps. And they were artists, too. Williams mastery of the snare drum was especially superb and nothing was more familiar to Auburn men than the .ythm of the drums six or eight times day.
 But the glory of William and Oscar as artists has departed. They can no longer stand mmobile at their task, the center Of the gaze of the college boys. for a student bugle has been established. This years matricuaton brought to Auburn number of Students exceptionally skilled in music generally and from the cadets Colonel Patrick, the commandant, and Maj. A. l.. Thomas, the musical director have selected bugle corps. More than 15 men have presented their claims as buglers of ability, but so far the corps consists of only six men. It's ranks will he swelled as others qualify.
 The busle corps. which has been on it's Job for several days, is composed of J. :. Howard, Birmingham, chief trum- peter; c. Y. Long, Birmingham; R. H. Neel, Macon, Ga; <. $. McCants, Demop- clis; G. l.. Moulton. Mobile; J. B. b. Woodburn, Gainesville, Ga.
 With the new musicians in college Major Thomas is very much satisfied with the prospects of success for his band this year. The Auburn band, already by it's popularity become a state institution Dill be up to, it's usual standard this year.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 IRON AND STEEL

New York, october 29.-The suit for dis
 solution of the Steel corporation brought
 by the United States government, the cancellation of the Hill ore lease by the directors of the Steel corporation, and the reduction of freight rates on lake ore by the corporation roads were the man
 features of interest in the steel industry
 last week.
 The volume of business in finished and se semi-fnished productions was again sharply contracted in nearly all lines. and
 the October statement of the Steel cor poration is expected to show decrease
 of 10 per cent to b per cent in the or uers on hand.
 Independent steel companies also suf-
 fered from loss of business. Building con- tracts continued light with fewer plans
 for new projects than at any time in
 many weeks.
 Specifications on existing contracts were
 smaller and in consequence mill actiVi-
 ties have been reduced about 10 per cent
 The American Steel and Wire company
 reduced official prices of all wire products
 Sl per ton to meet competition, and 1nde-
 pendent wire manufacturers followed
 Buying was not stimulated, as Stll lower
 prices seemed to be anticipated Average prces of all kinds of steel are within
 g.. 30 per ton of the lowest point ever touched in the industry
 Hansel X Elcoch were awarded the con tract for 10000 tons of fabricated steel for the Field museum at Chicago. Among other building contracts were 25O0 tons for the Rice hotel at Houston, which went to the Cambre Steel company and l5O tons for the Hurd hotel at Tampa, Fla,
 to the Virginia Bridge and Iron com pany Saturday a better tone was developed. The Grand Trunk contracted for a00 cars with the Pressed Steel Car company.
 and the Canadian Pacific ordered 1000 tons of boiler tubes from the National Tube company. More rail orders were placed,
 making the weeks total 25.O00 tons, in- including s500 tons for Chilli.
 There was fair buying of pig iron in
 ihe eastern district for several days. and more than half the total of 5o.000
 tons purchased was in eastern territory.
 Business fell off sharply during the last few days.

FAIR AT SELMA
 A GREAT SUCCESS

Selma, October D. Special. )-The central Alabama fair. which has been in progress during the past week, came to a close last Saturday. The fair was a most successful one and was attend ed by large number Of citizens from all parts of central Alabama.
 The fair proved to be the largest and most successful one that has ever been held in Selma. The agriculture
 and live stock exhibits were larger and more numerous than ever before. Tie commercial exhibits were also larger than ever shown before.
 One of the most attractive exhibits that was shown during the week and one which always interests the rural visitors was that of the International Harrow Cultivator company of Bir- mingham. The majority of the visi- tors to the fair examined their har- row and were greatly pleased with it. The harrow, which is being manu- factured in Birmingham is an alto gether Alabama product. The machine pleases the farmers, for in it there is not a bolt. screw or nut. The machine is composed of six bars on which are at = tached 46 steel discs. The tests which have been given the machine have all proved that it will do the work claimed hy it's manufacturers in most satis- factory manner.

Work on Roster Will Continue

Atlanta, October 29.-(SpeciaD has
 been decided by the Georgia roster com
 mission to continue the work on the ros-
 ter of Georgians who were in the Con-
 federate army and naval service during
 the civil war, though the work will be
 divorced from that of compilation of CO.,
 lonial revolutionary and Confederate rec
 ords which was recently ordered sus-
 pended by Governor Smith.
 Former Gov. w. J. Northen was in
 charge of both of these duties, receiving
 for the records S2400 year anu for con-
 bling the roster S120O. He may or may
 not continue the work Of compiling the Georgia roster.
 Something like two-thirds of the work of compiling this roster has been completed The work has been ma terially handicapped as result of the action of the United States war de- partment in refusing to permit out side clerks to copy the names of Geor- gia soldiers and sailors from the rec Ords held there. There are some 5O,00O names in the archives at Washington which Georgia wants to secure. The war department demanded $S000 for this work to be done by its own clerks, and the state refused to pay it.
 When Governor Smith goes to Wash l ington as United States senator, he | stated that he would undertake to make arrangements as soon as possi- | ble for securing copies of the, needed | rosters at a minimum cost. The roster commission believes these lists can be | secured complete at an expense oi $250O. -He Besides the historical value of this record it will be useful to the pension l department in eliminating and pre- venting fraud

Chicago, october 29.--(Special.) )-Pres,- 6ent Taft heard some unvarnished truths yesterday concerning the political situ- ayaon in Illinois that set him thinking.
 Col. Frank L. Smith F. Dwight, col lector of internal revenue, being federal officeholder, and quite in sympathy with the President, called upon MT. Taft at his hotel and conferred for some time over the republican line up.
 Colonel Smith informed the President tbat the Taft administration needs, just now, a strong leader in the state to jump into the fight and hold off the anti-Taft sentiment The colonel would be willing to undertake the work but he is hard at 1t right now trying to frame up things So he can capture the republican nomina- tion for governor
 In a talk after leaving the President Colonel smith declared frankly: Some one has got to organize the Taft forces for the 1912 campaign and do it in hurry If Mr Taft expects to carry Illinois his supporters must do some hard work for him. I am hoping that, by the time the Presidents stay in Chicago is over, some definite line of activity will be decided upon"
 Colonel Smith conferred with Secretary Iilles after leaving the President, and went into details to show how important 1t is that no time be lost to counteract the progressive sentiment that is gaining ground in the state. The colonel reminded MT Hilles that Senator LaFollette's cam raign manager is to open headquarters in Chicago on Monday and that as yet not a move has been made for the Presi- dent.
 "Of course, no one expects Taft head quarters to be started up,' remarked the colonel. but what is needed is to get people thinking of what the President has actually done and create sentiment for him for 1912. This must be done before it is so late that Illinois will be lost to him"
 Roy o. West, chairman of the repub- lcan state committee was a caller upon the President, and it was whispered that he had confided to MT. Taft that the rae ton led by Governor Deneen would be with the President at the election for delegates to the national convention
 Mr. Taft It is admitted on every hand, has lost ground in Illinois because of his action with respect to the tariff. His "standpat" policy and his failure to come out decisively for definite tariff reform legislation has forfeited support that he might otherwise have easily counted upon.
 MT. Taft will stay in Chicago long enough to find out all he needs to know. It Is expected an active campaign will be started to shape up the situation for 1912.
 MT. Taft decided today to cut down his

 Difficulties

New York October 29.-(SpeciaD Jos eph Bischoff, known as the S20o,Ooo Wal street barber. has arranged his matrimo- nial difficulties without the aid of the supreme court
 When a new application of his young wife Margaret NJ. Bisehoff, today came lefore Supreme Court Justice Hischoff it was withdrawn by consent.
 Bischoff' gained a wide acquaintance ship among trust organizers, Wall Street bankers, and big railroad officials by at tending to their tonsorial wants. He shaved Thomas F. Ryan. James A. Still man. Vice President Vanderlip of the Ma tional City bank, and cut the hair of mil lionaire younfisters. While he was work ing he discussed his real estate invest ments and decided to accept his patrons advice to invest in gilt edged bonds. His securities were the real cause of his domestic trouble his wife asserted in her petition for alimony In view of the fact that she is 30 and he is 64, she declared that she had agreed to marry him lpon his promise to present her with a wedding gift of $2500O.
 Mrs. Bischoff said that her friends hu- inflated her by asking what she received from her husband as wedding gift. She mentioned gently as she could" to her husband that he had not kept his prom ise regarding the wedding gift Bischoff told that he had been so busy he had Sor- gotten the matter The next night he handed to her $7O000 worth of bonds and the following evening he brought nome 5000 more. His wife wanted to know where the other s12,00o was, but did not get a satisfactory reply. Prior to the marriage Mrs. Bischoff stated her hus- band furnished her with a complete list of the dividend bearing securities that he owns. The stock is the American Tobacco company. United States Steel corporation and other standard stocks. MT. Bischofi is proud of the fact that he has been oi service to Wall street magnates.
 'I have shaved trust organizers. bank CTS and railroad men, he said, "and they good enough for me-
 Mr. Bischoff is well posted concerning Mir. Ryan. because he has often shaved him at S:30 o'clock in the morning. He says if working men could see MT. Ryan get out of bed in the morning, spring into a bath and get ready for the days work 1t would be a refreshing surprise He is spry, kind. and cheerful from the instant he wakes up
 From the securities given her by her husband Mrs Bischoff has been receiving $200 a year income. but says that in ad- dition her husband should be compelIed to give her $50 week

COTTON MARKET
 LOOKS UNCERTAIN Bulls Look for Activity in
 Month of November CROP HAS MATURED
From Now on Little Damage Will Result From the Weather, Large Percentage of Staple Hay
 ing Been Gathered

| New Orleans. Ocotber 2e.--The cotton
 market this week promises to be fully
 as uncertain and undecided as it has
 been of late The main things to be
 considered are the spot demand which is likely to affect the minor swings
 and crop estimates which ought to af-
 feet the broad swing of the market The tendency recently has been to return to the large crop guesses of | the carly part of the fall and this week | it is probable that several sensational
 bear estimates will be made. One crop expert has as good as promised one Of | the highest among the serious estl-
 mates given on the season The large l ginning returns in the fast report haN e teen seized upon as the basis for high-
 CT guesses and have intensified the ef- feet of the large movement into sig ... The spot demand is an uncertain
 quantity as this week the October po-
 eition will have been liqudated. The
 recent good spot demand has been due
 to the scramble to fill October ship
 ments in a large measure and 1t now
 remains to be seen whether the inquiry will extend over into November.
 Bulls claim November is to be an ac. tive month in a spot way in contrast | to the usual dullness. Some of the buying of the last week would tend | to that belief but the developments
 of this week alone can prove who is right If the spot demand continues | the bulls will be given big advan- | tage as of late spots have shown a
 disposition to lead futures to higher levels.
 | Wednesday will end the period to ginning by the census bureau and be- | fore the end of the week there will
 he more or less guessing over the figures although the official report will
 not be published until November 5. This next report on ginning will be | the most effective weapon the bears will have ina the immediate future un- l less recognized authorities on the crop l come out with very large estimates. | This far the ginning returns this sea-
 son have broken all records and there
 seems to be no good reason why they | should not continue to do so.
 | The weather this week Is likely to become less of a factor in the situa- | tion than for many months past. The
 crop has matured and a large per l centage of 1t has been gathered, and l there is little or nothing left on the
 plant to mature. Broadly speaking the l weather from now forward can affect the quality but hardly the quantity Of | cotton left in the fields. For this re.i- | son the weather map will be less anX- | ously scanned.

but requests for tickets were so numerous that there was not room enough in the hotel and the scene was shifted to Mo- morial hall. 1t was to have been wet banquet, but committees of old soldiers and the county commissioners notified the Chamber of Commerce that it would be against the la wo fthe Memorial to serve liquor within the hall and il was an nounced that the banquet would be dry.
 It had been planned to eXtinguish the lights in the big auditorium suddenly and the walters were to have entered from all sides of the banquet room carrying dishes of flaming brandy. 1t was con ceded that the picture of 800 tongues Of 1ckering blue flames being carried about the darxened hall and finally placed be- fore each diner. would have been ef- fective. But the prospect of this pic- ture was knocked into a cooked hat when liquor was barred and the artistic chefs only consolation now is the fact that the secret service guard of the Pres ident would not have allowed the lights to have been turned down anyway.
