Weekly Cotton Clouds.

New York. April l2.-Cotton goods markets
have been generally quiet and sales are be-
ing made at the expense OF values. This is
noticeable In print cloths and convertibles.
where prices on many odd constructions have
been falling off. Trading on some linens has
been good. Fail River sold lio.0 pieces of
print cloths. OF which GO. 900 for spot
delivery. Printers bought substantial guam
uEies OF four-yard so squares for percaIes at
cents. which Is about isc. under the low :
est price thus far this year
The demand for printed goods OF n staple
character from the jobbinE trado has been
light. Bieached goods were bought from
hand to mouth. while heavy brown goods
accumulated slowly and held relatively firm.
Colored domcstlcs are stendier than many
OF the other lines. us the leading mills still
have many goods to deliver Oh contract
The manufacturing trades have been buv-
ing better than jobbers Retailers are an.
plying themselves on repeat orders for wash
fabrics. Jobbers say their fall business is
coming along fairly we'll. Export trade has
been light. but shipments on old orders still
continue or average proportions. Cotton
yarns are easy and knit goods moderately
active.

Another consideration which figured
in the calculations OF the bears was
the possibility that a decision may be
handed down on Monday by the Su-

AS the stock market is closed on Mon

railway officials of the new road
who were in Joplin Monday look
ing after final arrangements for

via the Frisco and Missouri Pa
cific tracks.
The schedule of trains pro-
vides for a daily service as fol-
lows: One through passenger
train to Denison, Texas, three
motor cars between Joplin and
Miami, Okla, one Red Ball and
one \local freight train. After
the road is entirely completed In
to Joplin, officials promise more
through passenger trains. The
Frisco tracks will be used tenn
porarily between Joplin and Bax-
ter Springs, Kan. The M. o.
G. G's own road from that point
to Denison will be used.
The service between Joplin and
Miami, Okla, will be excellent,
representatives say. The inaug-
ural freight service also is con-
sidered good. The new road
runs through a fertile portion OF
Oklahoma.

Has it Sold?

There is still grounds for be-
lief that the new road will be a
Missouri Pacific institution. The
latter company has a line to To-
peka, running from Joplin and
Pittsburg. The line from Pitts
burg to Topeka has been a joke
for years and years, but lately
the road has been improved, and
now an elegant new station is be-
ing built by the Missouri Pacific
in Topeka. 1t is our guess that
the M. o. G. will be built from
here to Pittsburg in the spring,
and when that part of the road
is finished the news will be made
public that the Missouri Pacific
owns the road. With the line
built from Baxter to Pittsburg
the Missouri Pacific would have
a line from Topeka to the Gull
of Mexico, something the Pacific
has been wanting for a long time
And the connection of Joplin
and Chetopa would naturally
follow.
All of which would be a good
thing for this burg.

Will They Try II?

Baxter Springs has a big sup
ply of gas at the present time,
and there is nothing to indicate
that the supply will be dimiu-
ished for many years to come.
But a feeling is stealing over
the community that perhaps the
company will try to raise the
price. An effort is being made
in other towns to do this. We
do not believe the city council
of this city would stand the raise,
but even If the city council should
be willing to do so, the News
will bitterly oppose it.
Gas at 2sc per thousand is all
right, but it is not worth any
more than that, and we do not
for a moment think the people
of Baxter Springs will stand any
attempt to raise the price, If any
such attempt is made.
II this connection it may be
noted that the Carthage council
put load under the gas company
of that city Monday night when
il passed a franchise providing
for 2sc thousand for gas when
the pressure is up to not less
than six ounces, and zoe a thou
sand if the pressure goes below
six ounces. The people of Car
thage by a big majority are be-
hind the council.
And we do not believe the gas
trust is going to have as easy
picking in Joplin as it expected
when the fight was started.
