Southern houses.
Sentiment over Sunday was rather
against the market This was based, it
Is believed, on some of the bulls having
lost their cotton and were hoping to
buy il back at a lower basis. There
was good buying by bulls and scattered
spot houses December shorts were ner-
vous and purchased the option rather
freely, with the result that an hour
after the opening prices were 8 to 13
points over the opening range.

South America
Backs u. s.. in Mexico.

WASHINGTON. Nov 17.-South
American nations have Joined the
United States in trying to force Gen
cral Huerta to resign the presidency
of Mexico.
President Wilson told callers to- day
that the situation still is hopeful de
spite reports TO the contrary. He be-
lieves that the operation of GER
tain foreign governments including
Brazil and Chile. which never have
recognized Huerta, is assured He in
dictated to callers that progress is be-
Ing made in gaining support from
Europe and South America for the
anti Huerta policy He also indicated
that the United States is not planning
mediation between the CarranZa and
Huerta factions.
Charge OShaughnessy at Mexico
City has not yet been given his pass
ports by the Mexican Government and
has not been ordered to leave Mexico
President Wilson has no intention of
directing either O'Shaughnessy or En-
Voy Lind to leave Mexico at the pres
ent time, unless unforeseen Develop
ments should compel lin to do so.
The barbarity by Mexican rebels at
Juarez in executing Federal officers
and soldiers without semblance of a
trlal mas injured the cause of the Con-
stitutionalists. The actions of Gen-
eral Villa show that the followers Of
Carranza are no less bloodthirsty than
those of General Huerta, and the
recognition of their belligerency is
further off as a result.
n challenge to a public debate on
the fairness of the United States to-
ward Mexico was issued in an adver-
tisement inserted to-day in a local
paper by Major Cassius f Gillette.
former army officer. He is willing to
argue that General Huerta is either
an assassin or traitor

BEAVEN.

Now Heaven was once an'upper flat lWith "Credo" on the front door
 ma4!
 Wherein the saints serenely sat, Each with a halo for hat. Each sang his bliss without alloy, Each sang his most ecstatic joy, Knowing the engine room was jam
 med
 With legions of the suffering dam
 ned.
 Such Heaven was. What Heaven is
 now
 Heaven only knows, but anyhow We may not criticize, because Earth still is run as Heaven was. Some live like Heaven and idly
 shirk; Some live like Hell and do the work Is that profanity: Good sooth, wish it were. It's worse; it's
 truth
 Win Heaven offer a solace, then, For all these .miseries of men? Not so; Heavens made as you and
 
 Improve this world we occupy. Heavens an effect and not a cause, And subject to the eternal laws. The higher's builded on the lower, Was. is and shall be evermore. The primary pupils simple knowl-
