New Orleans Futures AT

New orleags, November 1S.--With

Although it cannot be said that the
market had active support at any time.
there We're occasions when the demand
was sufficient to bring about partial
recoveries from the decline. Much of
the buying appeared to be from shorts
who wanted TO realize profits. Bears

Chicago. November 1s.-Assertions

WHOLESALE TRADE
CONTINUES BRISK
Live Hens Sell For IA Cents.
Live Turkeys Bring
Is Cents

Business on Morris avenue continues
quite brisk, and the demand in most
lines is fairly active. Poultry and eggs
are plentiful in Birmingham and 1t is
said that supplies are abundant
throughout the rural portions of tho
state as well as in Tennessee and Mis-
souri, Live hens now bring IA cents a
pound from the wholesale trade. Live
turkeys are selling for 16 cents, and
the dressed product IS cents.
Creamery products are in steady de-
mand and the best brands of butter
range from 80 cents to 351s cents in
case lots. Process butter is quoted at
80 cents. "Oleo" is also in good demand,
and the price runs from Is to 90 cents.
Wholesale dealers who handle per-
ishable provisions are everywhere feel
ing the good effect of continued cold
weather on the general trade and ex-
press qualification because of the in
creasing demand in evidence at this
time.

New York. November 1S.--tSpeeial)
Europe is SO convinced of Its ability
to buy cotton this year at any old price
that the Liverpool market. declined
sharply today and Is below a parity
either with New York or the southern
markets.
During the past few days there has
been a natural liquidation by those
who did not care to carry their Do
ccmber cotton any longer This liquida-
ton has been in excess of the invest
n;ent demand which naturally has
waited to see what the market would
do after having been closed for so long
a period Of time. Today the pressure
was much less and investment demand
was greater, though small in volume
People who buy cotton nowadays are
either looking at it as permanent
Investment for two or three years Or
the orders are from spinners who failed
to buy on the depression of last month
and are now contemplating the pur-
chase of a supply We cannot expect
an active speculation for an advance
when 1t Is known that there will he
some 100000 bales to be carried over
this season. but we do expect that
spinners will buy from now on more
cotton than they need this season on
declining markets.
They know the value of cotton and
what will happen II peace should be
brought in Europe just as we'll az we
do. We expect that tarsighted spin
ners will soon epdeavor to tontracl
for supplies for several years ahead

GREAT AGE OF THE EARTH
Solid Crust Formed From 10000, 900
TO I0,000,000 Years Ago

In order to estimate the age Of the earth
different phenomena may be used. First,
the separation of the moon; secondly, the
solidihcation of the earth's crust. then
the condensation of the aqueous vapor
aud the formation OF oceans. says sci
enee. The quantity of salt dissolved in
these oceans and the thickness of the
geological layers. especially those of a
caicareous nature. AFFORD further argu-
ments.
According to George Darwin. the moon
was separated from our globe about 56.-
Va,Voa years ago. The age of the soliI
crust has been calculated by Lord Kelvin
frem the increase of the temperature In
deep mines. In some regions the tenn
eratur els seen To increase about one de-
gree for every % meters; In others. how
ever. one degree for a hundred meters
On the average the considerations of Lord
Kelvin gave an age OF e000,0oo to 100000
years ia the solid crust of the earth
The quantity Of salt obviously increases
in the oceans on account of the salt add
ed by the rivers and of the evaporation
of the water. The total quantity of this
salt has been calculated and the quantities
of the yearly supply OF water are known
for all the larger streams. as we'll as
their percentage OF salt. For these data
We may calculate the annual increase OF
salt in the oceans and find how many
years would be required for our present
rivers to accumulate all the salt now
found in the seas. According to Joly.
about 90,0000o0 years would be necessary.
But ohvionsl ythe rivers must exhaust
the grounds which they drain. and for
merly these must therefore have been
much richer in salts. This considerati ton
must lead us to diminish the number of
years required in very sensible man
ner
The age of geological strata has been
deduced from their thickness and the
velocity Of the process of sedimentation.
Soilas estimates the total thickness OF
about so lilometers and the average rate
of deposition of the layers at 30 confer
meters per century. From these num-
pers we may find an age of e6.0oo, 900 years
10 rthe collective deposition OF all its
geological layers. Caleareous rocks have
been built by organisms and mainly by
eorals and mollusces. These have made
use of the lime added TO the sea by the
rivers. Dubois has calculated on the one
hand the whole thicsnesses OF these rocks
and on the other the yearly supply or
lime from the rivers. lie cEcludes that
S6,0oo,0o0 or 45.000o00 years would be re-
CURED to produce the whole of this sys.

Russia Gets Under WAY

The Germans, who had forced General
Rennenkampff to withdraw to the border
of the Prussian frontier, We're making an
attempt to envelop his left wing, says a
writer in Golfers Weekly. Their columns.
issuing from the maze of lakes and hills
in Masurenland, came across the border
on both banks of the little River Amulew.
and fell upon him.
There is road in those parts that
drifts south along the frontier an I'M
made, unholy Russian road ribbed with
outcrops of stone purgatory to travel
upon till the snow clothes 1t, and one
can go by sledge. Away to the south
west, beyond the patches of fir wood
and the gray, steeply rolling land, there
toned the war diapason of artillery;
strings of army transport. Rec Cross
vehicles, and miscellaneous men struggled
upon the road.
From beyond the nearest shoulder OF
land sounded suddenly some gigantic and
hoarse whistle, an ear-shattering roar of
warning and urgency. There was shout
ing and stir of movement; the wagons
and Red Cross vans began to pull out
to one side, and over the brow of the
hill, HURTING into sight, huge unbeliev-
ably swift, roaring upon its whistle tore
great sray-painted motor lorry, packed
with khaki-clad infantrymen. 1t was GO

EARLY DECLINE IN
COTTON MARKET
Prices Rally From the Low
est With Close Steady
At Loss

New York, November 1S.-After an early
decline offerings became smaller in the
cotton market here today. and prices rail-
lied from the lowest, with the close
steady at net loss of from to points.
There was a renewal of the selling
movement at the opening and after start
ing at a decline of to 9 points, active
months sold 10 to IA points net lower Old
style December contracts were relatively
weak under liquidation, selling off to 6S5c.
or more than S. per bale below the best
price reached at the reopening of the
market last Monday morning. Trade in
terests and houses with southern con-
nections were sellers OF the later months
on the decline of 7.57c for May contracts,
but at this level offerings were less ag-
gressive and the market turned steadier
Many of the local commission houses
were said to be encouraging investment
buying of the new contracts ON the
ground that values were below a parity
with prevailing prices for spot cotton in
the south, and the announcement that
subscriptions to the cotton loan" pool
fund had been completed, seemed to make
a bullfsh impression on sentiment
Trading was less active on the rally, but
there was some fresh buying in evidence
while there was also local covering, and
some authorities claimed that the scatter
ing interest in old December contracts
had been pretty we'll liquidated
Southern spot markets were unchanged
to sc lower. 1t was estimated that at this
mornings low level. the local stock deliv-
cred at present differences on December
would average below 6ss cents per pound

Marriage Mixes Relations
Los Angeles Times.

from lne Los AnBeles 1lmeS
San Diego, Cal.--When Herman y. II.
Pitt aged 20, and Lena Inez Cash, aged
49, of Pacific Beach, made application to
Deputy County Clerk Adams for a mar
riage license they were informed they
would have to get the consent of their
parents before the license could be is
sued.
The youngsters, however. had provided
against this contingency, for they had
with them Mrs. Maggie Pitt Cash, the
mother of the young man. and the step
mother and guardian of the young lady.
Mrs. Cash formally gave permission to
her son to marry her stepdaughter, and
then. just formally gave permission to
her stepdaughter to marry her son. Thus
the stern mandate of the law was obeyed.
Mrs. Cash, formerly Mrs. Pitt, married
Thomas Cash, owner of a nursery at
Pacific Beach. about two years ago Mrs
Pitt had two sons. while Cash had one
daughter. During the last two years the
Oldest son has been paying court to his
stepsister, and now that the marriage is a
reality he is a son-in-law of his own
mother. and a brotherin-law of his own
brother. incidentally, he is his own
brother-in-law also.

BETTER TONE IN
WORLD OF FINANCE
Presidents Reassuring Let
ter to Secretary McAdoo
Has Helpful Effect

New York. November 1S--President
Wilson's reassuring statement to the
Secretary of the Treasury in connec-
ton with the Inauguration of the new
federal banking system was almost
the main topic of discussion in finan-
c.ai circles today. Taken in eonjunc-
tion with the completion Of the cot
ten pool it was hailed as an augury
of betterment in other directions.
One more step toward the restora-
ton of normal financial conditions
was recorded during the day when the
committee of bankers and bond deal
ers which was organized soon after
the outbreak of the war to supervise
dealings in unlisted bonds and unlisted
guaranteed stocks announced its re-
tirement. The well established market
now prevailing for these securities
loan situation enabled the committee
to take this action.
There was another conference be-
tween leading banking interests and au-
tnorities of the stock exchange rel
alive to the advisability OF an early
reopening of that institution but the
result was once more inconclusive. The
suggestion that beginning be made
by having daily calls in bonds and
guaranteed stocks. as was the custom
in the early days of the exchange was
reported to have met with little favor
in Influential quarters.
Industrial conditions offered great
er promise, according to authoritative
trade advices. Copper metal scored an
other fractional advance and purchases
of pig iron have Increased materially.
Buying of finished steel and iron thus
far this month was considerably in eE-
cess of the corresponding period of the
preceding month and leading mills in
creased their average of production. IN
cidentally, some of the larger railway
sy stems came into the market for new
equipment.
Exchange on London was a trifle
easier. with little demand. Business for
Paris and Berlin was the smallest in
some weeks. All continental rates were
higher. The Imperial Bank of Germany
again showed an increase of gold hold
ings with very large expansion of
discounts.
The more detailed statement of the
countrys exports for October disclosed
the fact that shipments of breadstuffs
for that month were almost three
times as large as in the same month
in 1918.

The Quest of Rest

From the Pittsburg Gazette Times.
Time was when a doctor said To a
business man: You need rest. Take an
ocean voyage. Then you will be far
away from every thought of business
No messages can reach you. not even
the daily papers. For whole week you
will be absolutely cut Off from the
world" Then came Marconi and his
wireless. Forthwith the big ocean
steamships had their daily newspapers
and stock quotations. Passengers re-
cetved private messages from land at
all hours of the day and night. Men
transacted business with their offices
practically as well as IL they were only
detained at home for a few days and
employing the telephones as n medium
of communication With the means OF
keeping in touch with affairs on shore
few busy men with large interests
could refrain from making use of the
agencies at hand. There was little diff
ference between travelling on an ocean
