OOO pieces 1t would occasion no surprise
II the total exceeded 100000 pieces. Buyers
seemed more willing to meet the asking
prices Of mills than has been the case for
several weeks. and because of this agree
ment a considerable amount of business
was done i'm certain lines. The wide end
of the market was active and there was
good business put through I'm 38l2 and ~
inch goods The big New York factors
and other important buyers purchased lib
orally. although they did not attempt 10
exceed their actual requirements
The character OF the business clearly in
dicated TO the trade that buyers have small
supplies on hard, and when business be-
comes normal there will be wide distribu-
tiOns of merchandise.
The condition of the New England cloth
markets at the close OF the week was
healthy, with the demand for certain lines
very moderate and buyers showing n will
ingness to meet manufacturers prices when
business is insistent. The cloth quotations
are as follows: 2S-inch 6ix6i, 3Is cents nom

go CHILDREN THEIR GUESTS
Youngest Playwright and Lead
ing Man Celebrate Their Success

Nearly sixty children were entertainer
at dinner yesterday afternoon at htue
Hungary by the youngest playwright anu
leading man" in New York. They are MISS
Dorothea Adler, eleven years old. and How
ard Weisel ten years old, both of the Gra-
mont Apartments, at No. 215 West sSth
street,
Early In January little Miss Adler and
the Weisel boy produced play at the lit'ie
girls home which she had written. How
ard Weisel took the leading male role, ana
the piece was such success that the pro-
ceeds amounted TO $40. Dorothea went to a
friend. who is a nurse in the public Schools
and asked how she could best spend the
money. and the nurse. who had witnessed
much of the misery on the East Side. sug-
gested that a dinner be given for some OF
the poorer children. This plan was agreed
to. and thirty boys and girls were invited
When the young diners arrived at the
cafe yesterday, however, a count OF the
noses around the table disclosed the fact
that nearly twice that number were pres
ent. Little Miss Adler was worried for a
few moments. but her mother assured her
that it was all right and that the extra
guests were, of course, quite welcome. Miss
Adler made a speech TO the diners, and
Howard Weisel also made a speech in true
actor fashion to the effect that his Ire
ambition was to play the leading part IN
Miss Adlers next production" Phillp
Cook. eleven years old, thanked the hosts
for their entertainment. The children were
from Public Schools 100 and 16l.

WILL STUDY CITYS WANTS
Municipal Needs Committee" to
Bring Co-operation.

A Municipal Needs Committee" body
whose purpose is the working out and ap-
plication Of a comprehensive plan OF city
building which will regulate public move
ments, get at the root OF social evils and
abuses and provide definite aim for the
city-a thing which those back OF the
movement say New York lacks-is now in
process OF formation and will be com
pleted within a few months.
The idea back OF the plan is that New
York's institutions have long done ineffect-
i've work because OF their lack Of con-
certed action. Persons interested in form
ing the new committee assert that New
York in common with every other city in
the world, has given too much attention
to the alienation Of effects and too little
to the removal Of their causes.
The body plans first to cooperate with
publishers in engaging experts TO write
books on local civcs, because It believes
that the city Is large enough 10 support
an economic, social and political literature
distinctively its own.
Next, the Legislature may be petitoned
to appoint commissions to investigate sub
iects within the scope Of legislative in
quiry, such al labor conditions, incomes,
the cost of living, housing, rents and ref
ormation and correction.
Third, cooperation may be established
with the citys Iawmaking bodies in form
Ulating those parts of the social progress
within the scope OF municipal action. These
relate principally to health, education, rec
reation. dependent care and city planning
The committee will be composed Of a
small provisional committee to plan and
direct work. general committee Of prac-
tical social reformers, economists and
others special committees on research
legislation. publicity, finance, etc, and A
group of cooperating agencies comprising
all the reform organizations in the field.

Of the institution, have been indicted py
the grand jury for causing the aged man

NOT LIKELY TO FOLLOW JERSEY
Legislative Leaders Oppose Plan of
Fixing Adjournment Date Now.

Albany. Jan. 2i.-Although legislative
leaders are predicting short session Of
the Legislature this year. few Of them are
favorable to the New Jersey plan of fixing
& date for final adjournment at the opening
OF the session Governor Dix believes that
every effort should be made to expedite
business Of the state, with a view TO bring
ing about an early adjournment but as
there are so many important propositions
presented annually in this state he says 1t
would bc almost AN impossibility to fore
cast with any degree OF accuracy sine
die adjournment date early in the year.
The situation in New Jersey" said the
Governor rs different from that in this
state. They have a Democratic Governor
while the Legislature is Republican. That
may account 70 a large extent for the ac-
kop taken"

against Patrick ]. Bennane, retail

to recover $1,084 on joint note
After the note had been presented be
fore the jury, Judge Mandell directed
verdict in favor Of the plaintiffs
against Bennane alone, explaining that
Mrs. Bennane was exempt from habil
ity in the matter.
Mrs. Bennane is not liable in any
respect" said the court, because heI
