IMMIGRATION OF TEACHERS

IMMIGRATION OF TEACHERS If the present immigration of school teachers continues very long the new state of Arizona will not only have big population. but it will be one that will rank high, educ,ationally. Besides the home grown school teachers. which crop is coming along famously. Super intendent of Public Instruction Case has since the 26th of June registered the diplomas of 46 teachers forwarded here from other states. But that is only part of the story. School teach CTS all over the world are hearing about Arizona, and are writing for in formation with a view of coming here Mr Case says that he is receiving and answering an average of forty letters of this kind every day. They inquire about the school system, salaries and school facilities. Not all are from teachers, though most of them are. The others are from heads of families who desire to move here and want to know of te opportunities for the edu- cation of their children. If only one in ten of his correspondents should de- eide to come he may be counted upon to add population of 1900 annually which Is doing we'll enough for ona man.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, November H.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance of to 14 points today. The ring was flooded with buying orders which appeared to be based on the expectation of a crop esti- mate from firm which was one of the first to point out the extremely large size of last years crop. Reports said that the expected estimate would be under 14.000 0@l bales. Shorts covered in confusion or the call. Liverpool was not high enough, but private cablegrams from that market were bullish fin their tone, one of them saying that German spinners were under con tract at profitable prices until the middle of next year At the highest in the early trading prices were i3 to 15 points up.
 May was sent over the 13c level. Longs became heavy profit takers, and at the end of the first half hour of trading prices were only to points up.
 From the long side offerings increased slowly, and at the middle of the forenoon the trading months were forced to a level to 5 points under yesterdays final quo tations. Disturbing reports concerning the movements of the French army caused some short selling.
 There was no real selling power and prices recovered promptly from it's early setback Commission houses handled a fair volume of buying orders and al noofl prices stood 6 to points over yesterdays last prices.
 Tn the afternoon futures were very steady. At half an hour within the close

EXCITING DAY IN
 COTTON MARKET
b@aa as, March Contracts Sell Within s Points of 13 Cent
 Level

New York. November 27-It was the most active and excited day so far for the season in the cotton market and prices made new high records, with March contracts selling at 12.92c or with in s points of the 13 cent level and about 12 points above the low level of the season. The close was several points off from the best under realizing for over the holiday Tomorrow, but last prices were steady, net b points higher to 3 points lower; generally P to 10 points only a couple of the remote deliveries being lower.
 The opening was firm at an advance of to 15 points and active positions sold Il to Is points above the closing figures of last night during the early trading Firm Liverpool cables. continued bullish trade advices and the spread of small crop estimates seemed to account for the advance which reflected an active general buying movement. Realizing however was extremely heavy with in- dlcations that some of the houses which had been bullsh were reducing their long lines. There was also some local selling for turn. encouraged by the hope of a pre-holiday reaction and prices eased off to within 2 or 3 points of yesterdays closing figures late in the forenoon. Of ferings appeared to be absorbed very readily on scale down, with foreign houses big buyers here for the purpose of undoing the short end of various strad- dies and the market frmed up again after midday on the demand from this source, a broadening outside buying move ment. and covering by early exports, and rumors that the National Ginners' asso- citation estimated the crop at 13,700,00O bales. Active months sold at net ad- vance of 20 to 24 points on this bulge, but the near approach to 13 cents brought out a great deal of long cotton and last prices were to 10 points off from the best.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, November 27v-(special)- Today was a good day to take profits when Liverpool was II to l5 points UT at the high point of the season. Many of the larger cotton houses did so and advised their customers of their acton, thus supplying the demand until the last hour when a rumor came from Memphis that the national glnners had reduced their estimatel to 13,700,000 bales for the crop. On this report the market closed firm at the opening prices.
 Wall street traders were large buy CTS as were many southern houses who look for a further rapid advance Whether this comes or not those who took prof it's today will have an opportunity to reflect over Thanksgiving day. The sen timent is almost universally bullish to- night. 1t being thought the mills are uneasy, and buying freely, though others report the demand for spot cotton does not follow this sharp advance. Mem phis denies that the national ginners has issued any estimate.

DECIDED ADVANCE
 IN WHEAT MARKET
RumOrs That French Troops Were Being Concen-
 trated Responsible

Chicago, November s7.-Unfounded but disturbing rumors that French troops to- day were being concentrated led to a de cided advance in wheat. The clnse was firm, sse over last night Corn showed a gain Of 1sda4c and oats rise of lsaAc sSc. In provisions the outcome varied from unchanged figures to an npturn of 25c.
 Profit-taking and French official lenials resulted in wiping out only a small part of the wheat advance. Month end price changes at Paris gave some color to re- ports of unusual military maneuvers and there were plenty forebodinss abroad. Dispatches were received from Vienna re- garding peace. shorts who led the buying furry showed radical aversion to any hol- iday risk
 Resting commission orders to sell at a cent advance acted as the chief barrier against the bulls. A big increase of the worlds available supply counted some what in favor of the bears. but failed to prevent | hardening of prices at the wind up.
 May wheat fiuctuated between s0e and slnslc, with last sales ssc net higher at sOse
 l. Corn advanced with wheat, despite sales of a million bushels by a leading house. Fine weather also failed as a bear infiu- ence. May ranged 1so off to is4i4c up at 4sc.
 Cash grades were in fair demand. No. 3 yellow was quoted at 5Sic. Receipts disappointingly small caused oats to climb. May, which sold from 3lssa32hc to 325sc. closed with Ac gain at 32iad &sse Provisions developed considerable strength because offerings dwindled after the opening. In the end pork was leading the rally and had become higher by ra G325c.
 Future ,,otations were as fo1IaxvS.

OPERATORS MARK TIME" ON EXCHANGE Characteristics of Market Were Its Apathy and
 Steadiness

New York, November 27-Stoek eN- change operators marked time" today. The characteristics of the market were It's apathy and steadiness in the face of the still unfavorable position of money. Traders deemed it risky to enter upon new ventures owing to the tension in money, but at the same time there was no pressure to sell. The result was in ertia.
 The attendance on the floor of the ex- change was small and trading was re- duced to a low point. The approach of the Thanksgiving holiday was partly re- sponsible Tor the duilness. There was some pressure on Canadian Pacific and Reading. Lehigh Valley sold off just be- fore the close Rubber and General Elec- tric with American Locomotive were strong. Fluctuations elsewhere were not significant.
 Money was easier with a maximum of g per cent for call loans This was the opening rate at which renewals were made and from this point quotations de- clined until just before the close there were offerings at per cent. This cen ter was anxiously serutlnized and called upon for nearly ss,0oo,O0O gold for ship ment to Canada and San Francisco. The movement to Canada, which absorbed the greater part of the gold, wasj ascrIbed to preparations on the part of the Cana dian banks for the quarterly statement as of the last day of this month.
 The comparatively little liquidation in stocks induced by high money rates is accepted as sign of the inclination of the financial quarters to be more optimistic. one quarter has occasionally persisted in pessimistic views. but now has turned optimo in the prospects of the Bal Kan war and the broadening aspect of the political situation in Europe.
 Traders are also influenced by the fact that the improvement in the business of the country will make itself felt on the stock exchange once the car crisis is past and the strain In money relaxed.
 Bonds dealings were traded in a large volume Distribution was good and tices were well maintained. Total sai par. value, s1,522,000. United States boaa on call unchanged
