COTTON MARKET IS
 ON TOBOOGAN AGAIN
southern Sales and Liquidation Send Prices 42-43 Points Off. Heavy Volume Southern Sell ing Surprise to Trade.

New York, Nov. 1.-The cotton mar ket sustained a very severe decline today under a weight of Southern selling and local liquidation, which sent prices off little more than S2 per bale. The opening was barely steady at a decline of , to 9 points. following easier cables and January soon dropped to 12 cents and March to 12.21 under increasing pressure from all quarters. The lowest pric- es of the day, however, were not reached until the early afternoon, when January sold at 11.80, and March at 12.01, representing drop of AZ to 43 points from Saturdays close, and about 40 points from the high rec ords of few weeks ago.
 The heavy volume of Southern sell Ing was surprise to the trade here. It was evident that the very fine wea- ther of the past week or so had raised private ideas as to crop prospects and this, with lessened export inquiry doubtless had it's effect in bringing about the weakening of spots at a number of points in the South, which was one of the disturbing elements in the market here.
 A wire from Temple, Tex, to the effect that spots were weakening and that the market would be flooded with offers if the decline continued, was quite representative of the sort of news which had arrived here during the day. Spinners bought, but not so freely as last week, although there were some good orders reported in the market on a scale down from present prices.
 Liverpool was very weak, partly on hedge pressure and partly on increased estimates of the India crop, which resulted in speculative selling from that quarter. It was understood that Liverpool spot firms had bought quite freely in the Southwest on Saturday, and had hedged against it in the Liv- erpool market today.

SUFFRAGE E ISSUE
 IN NEW YORK
Prohibition in Statewide Form Will Be Central Issue in the State Elections in Maryland And Ohio.

New York, Nov. 1.-Whetl 4r wo- men shall be permittel to vote is the overshadowing question to be decided in New York state tomorrow. A re- vised constitution drawn by conven- tion, with Elihu Root as it's president. at Albany last summer, also is to be voted on, and three congressman, a full assembly, eleven supreme court justices and some county and city of ficials are to be elected, but all of these questions are running poor seconds in interest to equal suffrage.
 The battle of the women campaign CTS for and against their enfranchise- ment has made the campaign pictures que. The speaking campaign ended tonight with twenty-four- hour suff- rage meeting at Times Square but the sutfragist work is not done More than 5000 women who will work as watchers at the polls tomorrow agreed tonight to rise shortly after 4 o'clock tomorrow morning to be at the polls at 5:30 o'clock.
 Leaders of both sides expressed optimism regarding the result of the election. The estimates of the sui fragist leaders are more conservative than those of the sutfragists. A much greater feeling of uncertainty exists regarding the fate of the con- stitution than about suffrage. It has been discussed less and doubtless many voters will be influenced by the read ing campaign which has been carried on in the newspapers.

THINGS TO DO WITH MILK

Drink it hot, but not boiled, with a sprinking of grated nutmeg or red pepper, if you are very tired.
 Drink it with a raw egg beaten in it, with a little sugar or nutmeg, if you are very hungry.
 Rub oilcloth and linoleum with a cloth wrung out of milk to restore it's original freshness and color.
 Bathe the face in milk to soothe the skin.
 Use sour milk or cream for freck- les and sunburn.
 Wet fresh ink spots with milk, let them soak for little, and then wash the milk out.
 Remember, when you have a big supply of milk on hand, that a baked custard or bread and milk pudding or any sort of cream soup will help to put the leftover milk to good use.
 Always rinse glasses and pitchers in which milk or cream has stood in cold water before washing in hot water.
 Scald milk bottle thoroughly after washing them. This is a precautlon that helps insure public health.
 Fill any saucepan in which milk has been scalded with cold water imme- diately on removing the milk from it.
