ENGLAND MAKES
 DEMAND ON NORWAY
Wants to Use Christiana as Naval Base-Norway and
 Sweden Prepare for War.

Christana, Nov. 30.-England has demanded from Norway for use as a naval base the city and harbor of Christiana. on the southern coast Of Norway, such uses to continue only during war.
 This demand has been refused by the Norwegian government, and pre- parations are being made to defend It's neutrality. Troops have been sent to Christiana from all parts of Nor way, and the defenses of the city are being strengthened.
 If Norway's neutrality is violated by England, Sweden will also be drawn into the struggle, because of it's defensive alliance with Norway The people of Sweden also dislike the Russians.
 The Norwegians are more friendly to the allies than to the Germans Public opinion here considers the 'overrunning of Belgium and Luxem burg by Germany as indicative that small powers or important states states would not be safe if German arms prevailed

New Orleans Times-Pica-
 yune Estimates Crop at 15,570,000 Bales.
EXPORTS ARE SMALL
Memphis Commercial Appeal Esti. gAte Is 4,9SS.79O-Seems Certain That Crop Is Exceeded Only
 by 1911 Production.

Cotton crop estimates were an- nounced yesterday by the two most important and most influential news papers of the cotton country, the figures given being as follows:
 New Orleans Times-Picayune, 15, 100000.
 Memphis Commercial-Appeal 14,- 9SS, ,79o.
 Coming about ten days ahead of the federal governments annual crop es- innate, which will be announced about noon of December Il, the figures com piled by these newspapers from the re- ports of their correspondents through out the cotton country are always viewed with interest by all persons connected with the growing and mar-
 keting of the staple, and successes in the past by these two newspapers have caused much respect to be paid their estimates, to make which the papers go to considerable trouble and expense. Exports, 1,171,299 Bales. To date, 2,655,673 bales of cotton have been received at all the cotton ports, and foreign exports have aggre-
 gated 1,171,299 bales. Never before has the crop moved so slowly to the
 ports or to the foreign mills, this con- dition this year being caused directly
 by the war in Europe.
 Ginning figures issued few days
 ago. and showing the amount of cot ton ginned to November IA, put it at 11,624, 7OS for this season, as against 1O, O,434, ,OOO for the same date last year, when the amount ginned was "A per cent of the entire crop. On the basis of percentaage, if ginning has been carried on as rapidly this year as iast season. one could estimate the total crop this year at 14,OS0,SS5, on gin
 ming figures alone. But it is on ad-
 mitted fact that much cotton has not vet been ginned, and that large quan- titles have not yet been picked. It IS considered that only about two-thlrds of the crop has gone through the gins, which would indicate crop of about 15,O19,611 bales. The governments crop estimate will
 he anxiously awaited by many of the traders, as will also the next ginning report, which will be issued December &. to cover all cotton ginned to Decem-
 Der 1. It appears now that if calcula- lions by the New Orleans and Memphis l papers are carried out, the crop o1 1914 will be larger than any other
 in history except the monster crop Of 1911, which totalled 16,250,276 bales.

VOn Hindenberg Surrounded.

Petrograd, Nov. 30.--The Russian cavalry, which has forced a. broad pas sage northward above the left wing of the German position in Poland. has hastened the final stage of Gen. eral von Hindenberg's great experi- ment.
 The backbone of the Germans de- fensive position now extends from the southwest for forty miles from the line which the Russian cavalry clear ed. This line is now held by strong fighting column northward to the Vistula.
 Above Bumbinmen, the Germans at- tempted to answer this turning move- ment by pushing southward from the other end of their line at Zudenska Volta, on the Warthe, but found a par rier in Russian column which had thrown backward the German relief force which was attempting to advance from Wielum.
 This column has enclosed the Ger man position at both ends, and intensi- fled the assaults from the south on von Hindenberg's entrenchments.

TYLER CASES GO OVER

Indictments against Ruby Lee, Dave Berlin and Jas. J. Dowd, who were charged with perjury, were dismissed by Prosecuting Attorney Parham yes- terday after Circuit Judge A. B. Grace had sustained . demurrer as to a defect in the indictment against the Lee woman and overruled similar de- murrers in the cases of Berlin and Dowd. The court stated in overrul- ing the demurrers that it did not ap- pear that public policy would be best served by prosecuting the cases against Dowd and Berlin while the Going statute. under which they were indicted, is on appeal on the ground of being unconstitutional. The in dictments resulted from testimony given by the defendants before the grand jury.
