There were about 500 marchers in

wound up with a dramatic performance

New York, November The cotton
market has been unsettled during the

With better weather in the south there

trade requirements as a result of nervous

American cotton this season may be cur

crops. Toward the close today, however,
the market was flrn1er with prices show
ing considerable rallies on the expectation
that ginning returns would hardly confirm
the larger views of the yield. Crop esti-
mates continue to reflect very wide diff

leading authorities, the figures ranging
from ls,s26,0oo to 15340,000 bales. Esti-
/, mates of 100000 bales and over have

the average OF over 30 estimates published
SO far this season is said to be in the
neighborhood of 100000 bales. Accord

CHARITY HOSPITAL

Matty Hersee Infirmary in Meridian
Doing Wonderful Work for Suf-

Meridian, MissA November 7.-(SpeciaI) }
The Matty Hersee hospital, which is a
charitable institution, filed it's monthly
report with the board of supervisors this
week and it shows that this institution Is
doing more for the benefit of the state
than any other institution to which the
state contributes.
During the month of October 103 pa
tients were treated and there were 50 on
erations. The patients came from the
northern to the southern boundary Of
the state, and the demand for admittance
is growing so great that 1t will be abso-
lutely necessary for the next Legislature
to increase the sum of $500 appropriation
annually to sustain the institution. 1t is

Mexico and Canada

The brief and cordial address which
was made by the Canadian premier at
the Lotos club in this city on the occasion
of the formal greeting of Cyril Maude
was, curiously enough, in strong contrast
TO the news which was received that day
from Mexico.
This contrast was due to the fact that
our two neighbors, Canada on the north
and Mexico on the south. are presumably
the nations with which the United States
ought to establish her most prosperous
trade relations. Premier Borden alluded
to the fact that Canada buys from the
United States 35 times as much as the
United States buys from Canada, and he
might have added that our largest in
ternational trade relations are with the
great dominion to the north of us If we
expect from our trade relations with
Great Britain the expectation of cotton.
But If Canada buys 35 times as much
from the United States as we buy from
Canada an almost exact reversal OF
trade relations is the story told of our
commerce with Mexico. We buy from
Mexico about 10 per cent of all the COM
modities exported from that country,
whereas Mexico buys from us only 35 per
cent, round numbers, of the commodities
she imports. Yet the trade relations with
Mexico were until recent complications
arose very satisfactory.
All of those who have given heed and
study to the opportunities for interna-
tional trade which the United States may
have are inclined to the opinion that the
time is not far distant when our greatest
international commerce will be with our
neighbor on the north and the republic on
the south For 1t Is the firm conviction
that sooner or later the semi-anarchy that
prevails in Mexico will be ended so that
there may be no more interruption of our
trade relations with that republic than
there is in our trade relations with Can
ada.
1t is the opinion in financial circles IN
this city that even though there Is re-
adjustment of business to the new tariii
within a year, and though an adequate
ba mixing and currency law be placed upon
the statute books, nevertheless in view
of world conditions several years Will
have passed before. normal and healthful
financial conditions can be established.

Making New Capital

Apparently Sir George Paish is of the
opinion that there is no immediate pros
pect that new capital will be procured
through the creation of new wealth in the
immediate future in sufficient amount to
meet the demands of even a considerable
portion of the demands which will be
made for fresh capital. How much of
the wealth which the American farmers
and miners and lumbermen got from the
soil in 1912 will be converted into fresh
capital is a question no one can answer.
How greatly the new commerce which
will be fioated through the Panama canal
will aid in the creation of new wealth no
one can tell. If American expectation of
manufactured commodities increases in
the years to come proportionately with
the increase in recent years there will
be large additions to the supply of fresh
eap pital.

New York, November 7.-(Special jim
the year 1902 James Stillnan, who had
spent several months in London, and
Paris, was qouted by some of his friends
as having said that International finan-
eial conditions would not be established
upon normal and healthful basis until
after Great Britain had financed perma-
nently the debt which had been entailed in
carrying on the war with South Africa.
That debt was of huge proportions, and
until it was taken care of there could be,
In Mr.. Stillmans view, if he We're reported
correctly, no relief from disturbing none
tary and financial conditions.
This debt was financed, but the trans
action was followed by or coincident with
the overpromotion of industrial corpora
tions in the United States and the demor-
alizing effect of the traditional desperate
struggle between James ]. Hill on the one
hand and e. II. Hartman on the other
for railroad mastery in the northwest
There followed the enormously costly war
between Japan and Russia, so that Mr.
Stillman's intimation that we might look
for normal and satisfactory monetary and
financial conditions after Great Britain
had financed her South African war debt
was not justified by the event.
The reports from France of a day or
two ago which stated that the Balkan
states were looking to France for loans
made necessary by the dead losses occa-
stoned by the recent wars and by the ex-
penses entailed in purchasing arms and
munitions and other materials brought
to the mind of some Mr.. Stillman's friends
the comment attributed to him in 1902. III
1t were a mere question of financing the
war debt of the Balkan states the ques-
ton would not involve very serious con-
tingencies. But while this financing OF
the Balkan debt is In progress there are
to be very heavy demands made for fresh
capital. For this reason, men who are
conservative do dot care to fix time in
the future when the normal international
financial conditions will be re-established.
