Great credit should be giv- en to Messrs Festus J. Wade and George w. Simons of St. Louis for their earnest and effective work.
 Opponents Unsuccessful.
 "The success of this plan has at no time been in doubt, but it's completion has been delayed by the selfish opposition of certain textile manufac- turers and local interests, who have tried to defeat it. I am happy to say, for the sake of the country as we'll as for themselves, that they have been unsuccessful.
 "The successful completion of this Elan throws upon my associates of the Federal Reserve board and my self added responsibilities and a large amount of onerous work. It is no part of, our official duties. We are already burdened with many diff cult problems, but we have regarded tine organization of this cotton loan fund just as we did the gold fund and it's proper administration as a patriotic service and have felt obliged therefore to respond to the call that has been made upon us.
 Will Promote Prosperity.
 We believe that the carrying out of this plan is going to be beneficial, not only in helping the cotton situa- tion and the foreign exchange situa- tion, but also by promoting the gen. of a IVY now has such happy impulse that it would be difficult,to retard it. It is a pleasure to testify to the pa triotism and broadmindedness of the banks and bankers who have so cheerfully supported the secretary of the treasury and the Federal Reserve board in the organization of this fund.-
 It was learned last night that at the luncheon at the Metropolitan club, in which MT. Baruch and members of the Federal Reserve board joined, the business situation generally was dis cussed at great length. There seemed to be a general agreement that the cotton pool should go through as planned.

 s The question as to the time when the New York Stock Exchange should be re-opened received consideration, but neither MT. Baruch nor members of the board reached any conclusions on this matter

COLLAR BONE BROKEN
 IN FOOTBALL GAME
Simon Sta5crt Ignorant of Nature of His Injury For More
 Than a Week.

To have his left collarponc dis located in a football game with the Acorn Athletic club eleven in Meri- den Sunday, Nov. s, ana being ig- norant of the fact for over a week was the experience of simon Stabert of 121 Austin street, this city, left tackle on the All-New Britain team. Upon the advice of Dr. George NJ. Flanagan, he visited pr. raul P. Swett, the Hartford bone specialist yesterday and was informed that the injury had grown quite serious by virtue of the fact that it had received no attention, and that it would be necessary for him to undergo an op- eration to have it set properly.
 During the time since teh accident the dislocated bone has worked around in such a maner as to tear away the fragments which supported it, so as to insure it's mending per fectly. the specialist will be obliged to hold it in place with wire.
 It was near the end of rne Acorn game that Stabert complained to Manager George Kingsbury of a pain in his shoulder. He refused to leave the game, however, believing it to be nothing more than bad bruise. As no improvement was evident in the condition of his arm, he consulted pr. Flanagan Monday of this week and learned the truth from him.
 Manager Kingsbury stated today that the All-New Brit 'ins will play a benefit game Sunday with the Ter ryville team, the proceeds of which will be given to the injured player who will be confined to his hame for at least three weeks. The contest will take place in Terryville.

 MT. Ladinig says that last night th< young man ed in excellent spirita and before supper spared few mir1- utes in a jolly maner with his little brothers. He~also stated that by na- ture the dead man was happy and cheerful and was not given to morose ness. He furthermore states that Of late Otto had been fooling around almost every night with his gun and his supposition is that he went out with it last night and accidentally shot himself.

 Otto Landinig was twenty eight years old and was polisher by trade.He was employed at Landers, Frary & Clark s in the scale department and worked steadily.

 MT. Landing is his step-father but his mother married him when Otto was so young that the baby was christened with the surname of Landinig and he had been known as Otto Landinig all his life. He was native of this city and had lived with his folks at Seymour park since 1900.
 Besides his mother and father the deceased is survived by three sisters, Mrs. Edward Rouff of East Hartford, Mrs. William Werner Of Washington, N. J., and twelve years old Ella, who lives at home. He also leaves three brothers, Ewald who is employed in Cromwell, and Alfred and John aged twelve and nine years respectively.
 Mix-up Among Undertakcrs.
 An embarrassing mix-up among the took place this morning after the medical examiner had viewed the remains. The family signified a desire to have B. c. Por- ter Sons take charge of the runeraI and accordingly the medical exam iner turned the remains over to MT. J Erickson & Carlson had received an telephone call to get the body and at once set out. They were met by Dr. Wright who told them that they were on the wrong trail. They continued, however, and soon after the medical examiner was in- formed that they had ta;1en the body. Officer Fred Wagner was then dis patched on his motorcycle to order the undertakcrs to put the body back where they found it and wait for B. C. Porter Sons. They acquiesced and the latter undertakers have charge of the funeral. MT. Porter, while preparing he body for burial this morning found that the dead mans feet hal been frozen during the night, so in- ,ense was the cold. This proves be- l yond doubt that the shot heard by 1, he family was the one which caused l lis death. l
