PROVIDE WORK
 FOR THE AGED

Chicago, November 27.--Men who are suffering persecution for the "crime of being older than 45" are to be given ald at regular meetings of the anti-45- year-age limit league The league has been inactive since it's organiza- ton several months ago. Reports that many men of 45 and over were unable to find employment has stirred the or elniZers of the association to action anl the first of the regular meetings which are to be held hereafter is scheduled for tonight
 Our league has been asleep" said Capt. w. F. Black, but we will rally new and fight unjust employers. A battle for jobs with younger men will be started. Lots of poor men, well able to work, are suffering just because they are refused employment because they are not younger than 45. This treat ment of men of this age is described by the league as unjust, unreasonable. it. logical, barbarlous and indefensible."

Hubbard Bros. X Co.'S Letter

New York, November 27.-(Special)- From Europe we received confirmation of our adviees of Thursday last that the south was offering cotton abroad on an easier basis These offerings brought about the weakness in Liverpool, and after our opening hedging orders came from the south. Spinners bought on a scale down, but there was not enough demand from them or from the recent investment buying to absorb all of these hedges. The feeling today has been one of disappointment rather than one of ness-disappointment that the spinning demand was not large enough to absorb these offerings from the south.
 Liverpool should decline 3 points to- morrow.
