GOES TO
Rev. Pratt Goes to LaGrande to
Attend Annual Meeting.

Rev. Pratt left Monday for La
Grande, Oregon, to attend the an
nual session of the Boise Conference
of the Methodist church for the
eastern part of Oregon and the
southern part of Idaho. The past
two years have been good years for
the church and Richfield has come
to be looked on as one of the strong
est little towns in the whole confer
ence; indeed, there are not more
than half a dozen places in the
whole conference that are consider
ed more desirable for a minister to
fill. Just what the presiding bishop
will do in the matter of filling the
Richfield appointment, will not be
known until Sunday or Monday, or
even until Tuesday. There will be
no church services held here next
Sunday. because of the absence OF
the pastor. 1t is expected that the
church will be re-opened a week
from Sunday, though if there should
be a change of pastors it is hardly
likely that the new man could get
here that soon.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 22-Liverpool
was good until the last hour when the
market weakened points. Spot prices
points lower; sales, 5000 bales. The
easiness Is probably due to Saturday
indifference and the antagonistic atti-
advices reported a large spot house
with a large following in Europe as
selling all the week.
Opinions were bearish this morning.
1t is hard to say exactly what caused
this change after a decline of l cent.
holders are not acting right and that
marketing is still too free for capital to
take bullish stand on the supply and
consumption proposition.
Our market opened 9 points lower
and weakened to 1910 for March around
the close. Bearish opinion from the
New York market affects support for
the present, but opinion here is bulltsh
as to the ultimate outcome on account
of deficiency of the crop and disappear
ance of reserves. 1t is UP to the spot
holder to stem the tide. Any resistance
on their part will promptly stop the de
cline, the more so. as that portion of
the crop which is available for the pro-
lection of short futures is smaller than
usual.
The Liverpool stock to-day is 336. 900
bales less than last year. AT the end
of last week 1t was 313, 900 bales less,
Spot people report market dull and
easier, lower futures affecting the posi-
ton of smaller holders.
The demand increased on the decline
and the market is apparently hard to
depress.

The New Orleans Times Democrat
says; ION the Census ginners' show
ing, which was about as expected, New
York worked hard to bring about de-
cline. On the drift of the movement,
which was bullish when it was expected
to be bearish, New Orleans bought con.
tracts. The market declined, recovered
and declined again, and then closed at
net advance of about so cents bale.
ward sellers expect to do fair Dusi-
ness in spite Of the specter of tight
money.
"Spinners' takings are now 4bO,0V
bales in excess OF their takings to the
corresponding date last year, when, for
the season, consumption reached the
record figure of IA, 903 900 bales, and are
more than 900 bales In excess of
year before last when, for the season.
consumption reached the enormous total
of 14515, 900 bales. Thus far exports
100, 900 bales in excess of the previous
record figure for this time of the year.
Because of this remarkably rapid on
take, the worlds visible supply of Amer
lean cotton stands at 1881 900 bales,
which is only $4,000 bales in excess OF
1911, following a period of scarcity.
and is 564, 900 bales less than in 1912
following the big supply of 191D,
"These figures reflect truly threat
ening drift when they are contrasted
with an into-sight movement of 6,647,-
marred by drouth and rain and caught
very early in the season by killing
frosts and freezing weather, as con-
trasted with 6 1855 900 bales last year and
6,31S, 900 bales in the big yield year OF
1911"
