IN the future It will not be neces-
sary flor the board Of supervisors to
procure the consent of relatives who
do not pay for the support of insane
relatives in the state hospitals to re-
move such relatives from the state
hospitals to the county hospital. When
tho transfer of patient is desired. all
the supervisors need do is to make
application to the state board of con-
troll for such transfer.
This new and important ruling re-
xarding the county's management Of
Its insane has just been made public
here iin a letter written by Chairman
]. II. McConlogue, of the board of
control, to County AttorneyA. C. DAILY.
The latter took up the question with
tho board Of control in behalf Of the
supervisors. ........
eoard's Position Changed.
The state boards position on the
law has changed, and its future atti-
:ude on the question is plainly set out
In the following extract from Mr.. Nc
Conlogue's letter: - ~
1.-The law governing the transfer OF
patients from the charge Of the state
to the care and control Of the counties
was not properly understood by men,
bers OF the board at the time be-
came a member. agree with you, and
some weeks ago SO informed. the board
when another case was up for consid-
Grafton that the consent Of the par
ents. or guardians, ETC., who do not
pay for theskeep and maintenance Of
such Inmates, is not required.
=
Turnover to counties the patients
who have been in charge of the state,
requiring only sufficient proof that the
county making the request is able and
properly equipped so that it can care
for these poor unfortunate beings in
the way which humanity dictates they
should be cared for"
Has Been Source Of Trouble.
The letter continues to say that in
the future all that the supervisors
need do Is to pass a formal resolu-
ton asking for the release from the
patients as the county may want. Such
resolution. after being certified to the
state board OF control will. the letter
says, doubtless result in the order Of
traneler being issued
Until the point was raised the SUI
pervlsors, acting on what has pre-
sumed to be correct Interpretation Of
the law, has always secured the con-
sent of relatives. who did not pay for
the care Of their insane In the state
hospital, before the supervisors tried
to arrange the transfer with the state
board. Frequently such consent has
been denied. and there are at present
several incurable insane at 1ndepen-
dence that the county has wanted to
transfer to the county hospital for
long time. but could not because the
consent Of relatives was not procur-
able. The county transfers such pa
tients after all hope Of effecting cure
is gone, because they can be cared for
at less cost at the county hospital
than at Independence. The ruling
made public by the state board OF con-
troll will be OF the same Importance
to other counties that it is to this
one.S

COTTON MARKET
VERY NERVOUS
Trading Continues Active,
But Sharp Reactions
Occur

New York, August 27.-The cotton MAT
lSet was extremely nervous and unsettled
today. Trading continued very active.
bat was hardly as general as earlier in
the week and there was evidently heavy
realizing on advances. This caused rather
sharp reactions. but buvins was asgres-
sive in the late trading, with rumors
that some of the sold out longs were re-
placing t;eir lines and last prices we're
arm at a net gain OF Is to % points. oe-
toner contracts sold at l. 20c or into new
high ground for the movement. while later
deliveries recovered 10 practically the best
level OF Tuesday.
The reactionary tendency which devel-
oped yesterday afternoon was reflected In
today's opening prices at Liverpool. but
the market there rallied sharply and the
start here found a good supply of buy
ing orders around the ring. First prices
were 90 points higher on August ant
from to points higher on later month";
with new crop positions ceiling IA point
above last nights close during the frs
few minutes. A private crop report max
ing the condition 1919 against So last montl
contributed to this advance. but Offering
soon became very heavy, and the mar
ket eased of 10 or II points from th'
best during the morning. Reactionar,
sentiment was encouraged by rains IL
the eastern half and favorable review
OF crop conditions In Georgia and th'
Carolinas, but the days detailed reports
showed record breaking temperatures il
the southwest. while a Chicago hous'
issued a condition report of GA and ther'
were rumors that the report of the Ma
tional Ginners association would make tn,
condition 69.3 These features were cred
tied with checking the selling movement
to some extent and the market was very
firm late in the Gay with active months

Chicago. August s7.-corn again today
VAS the active feature OF speculative in
terest II weakened on liberal selling by
longs but In the final part of the session
rallied fairly well on rebuying by traders
Final prices we're isc net lower to ssc not
higher with the September option showing
the greatest recovery. Wheat closed 10
ssc lower. oats ism4@aae off and pro-
visions unchanged TO 10c lower.
Corn started with good show OF
strength on the continuance of hot dry
weather southwest. Profit taking sales
followed the upturn. some of the leadins
longs putting big lines ON the market.
Prices eased rapidly and II soon became
evident that there had been overselling
in the face of naturally bulllsh crop con-
ditions. a buying rally in which some
of the chief early sellers figured lifted
prices fairly we'll and the close was firm.
A feature of the day was liquidation

Wheat eased off on practical assurance
that the northwest crop is safe and that

ness. 1t was said that the export call
was the poorest of the season to date.
Liquidatlng by holders of September was
a feature of the market
Steadiness showed by corn helped wheat
at the close and the tone was tirm in the
final hour.
Primary receipts today were 1,46o, ,0O1
against 1410.00o bushels year ago. Sea-
board clearanees of wheat and flour
equaled 1227,00o bushels.
Oats showed weakness almost through
out the day due to lack of demand.
Selling by longs depressed provisions.
The demand was slow most of the day

NEW CROP MONTHS

August Shows Most Erratic
Fluctuations - Closing
Price 1915 Bid

New orleans. August 27.-Cotton had
a very steady undertone today and the
new crop months at their highest were
month, showed, most erratic fluctuations
which, al their widest, were over a
range of a fun cent. In the early part
of the session August went to I3.75c, or
76 points over yesterdays close. This
advance was the result of the liqulda-
ton of the remaining short interest
Only a few sales were made all told in
this month and the closing price was
12.75c bid.
The market opened 26 points up on
August and to Z points up on the new
crop months. For time the squeeze
in August attracted some attention but
there was not enough trading in that
position to make it leading factor il
the days business. In the early trading
the. new crops went 10 to II points up
but afterward lost all of the advance
on profit taking by shorts. Later there
was another advance of 10 points over
yesterdays last quotations. August was
inactive in the afternoon. The market t
closed barely steady at a net advance
of IA to 16 points on the new crop
months
The weather map continued dry and
the forecast held out little hope of rain
for the drouth sections of tho belt Crop
accounts were bullish and so were pri-
vate reports on condition up to Au-
gust 20. These reports ranged from
1873 to 6s.3, indicating decided deter
ioration during the month of August.

STOCKS STEADYW|TH
A GOOD UNDERTONE
Delivery of Wilson'S Mexi-
can Message Has no I'm
mediate Price Effect

New York. August 27.-Until the last
hour of trading today stocks were steady
with good undertone. although fiuctua-
tons were narrow. Such movements as
occurred were mostly upward with spe-
ciaities, including American Ice, Amer
lean Agricultural Chemical. Peoples Gas
and Sears-Roebuck in the lead. Toward
the close of the day several points of
weakness appeared. Union Pacific, Read
Ing. Lehigh Valley, New York Central,
Can. Smelling and various other stocks
fell off l to points and the whole mar
ket was heavy at the close.
Mexican affairs retained first place in
the determination of the stock market
sentiment. After orders on hand at the
opening had been executed. the market
settled down to await President Wilson 5
message and trading came almost to a
standstill. Delivery of the message pro-
duced no immediate effect upon prices.
II was an hour after the message reached
the street before the list began to de-
cline. Despite this lapse of time it was
the Mexican situation which was cited as
the cause. Smelling, which has heavy
interests in Mexico, was the weakest
stock among the leaders. The slump ap-
peared to be due, however, lsss to any
alarm over the situation than to selling
by bears, who put prices down simply
because they had not gone up on de-
livery of the message.
Union Pacific's decline was Influenced
by the unfavorable July statement show
ing decrease in net earnings of $67l,-
600. New Haven again developed weak
ness in the early trading, falling 2is
points to new low recover to 9ls4. United
States Express made another low record
by falling Sls to 4o1s points.

important issues showed a considerable

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York. August 27.-(Special.) .)-Sev-
eral crop conditions reports We're issued
today all showing relative decline of
points since they issued their July esti-
mate. These reports together with the
continued dry. hot weather over the
southwest induced many who had sold
their holdings to replace them during
the afternoon.
Liverpool was rather better than due,
but the support to prices came from the
sources mentioned. The close was at the
highest point yet reached with all posi-
tons selling above 12 cents. October in
view of the rapid decrease in our local
stock was naturally the strongest posi-
tion.
There is no change in the fundamental
conditions which have caused this ad-
vance excepting that large short in
terest has covered. Spinners have bought
moderately for they still think the con-
ditions exaggerated though there Is an
unsmty of opinion about the crop re-
ports which commands respect and should
! reflect the government estimate.
