THE COTTON SITUATION
By Henry Clews & Co.
:: :: y :: 3: y y u :: {. u :: Il y {. !.

New York, Feb. S.-The cotton mar
ket during the past week had to con
tend with number of apparently
bearish factors, chief of which was a
drop in ocean freight rates and de
cline in the price of cotton at Berlin
From this it was argued that Ger
many's requirements had been filled
and that exports from now on would
dwindle The amount of cotton ship
ped to Germany cannot be accurately
estimated, but it is certain that that
country has not so far taken anywhere
near its normal requirements. In at
tempting to forecast the volume of
exports for the balance of the season
a more accurate deduction could be
made by due consideration of the to-
tai European stocks, to which might
be added the increased activity of the
foreign manufacturer. Certainly these
two phases of the foreign situation
w HoI ouSStSI any lcSSShlhS III lhS
demand for our cotton. Exports for
the week are record breaking for any
single week in any year after Janu-
airy 1st, being close to 100000 bales,
which is twice the amount sent out
in the corresponding week a year ago
and three times as great as in the
same week in 1913. In spite, howev-
er of this heavy movement, the port
receipts have only decreased moder-
ately, which in itself seems to be pret-
ty conclusive evidence that there is
little probability of let-up in ship
ments to the other side. Certain it is
that the weeks development in this
respect is strong supporting argu-
ment of the theory suggested some
time ago in these advices that exports
would continue increasing at a time
when they should be normally decreas-
ing. rumor in the early part of the
week, that Great Britain would short
ly make cotton contraband had a tenn
porarAy depressing effect, but this was
set at rest by an official communica-
ton from the English government,
stating that Germany has a sufficient
supply of cotton for her war purposes,
and that therefore to place the staple
on the list of contraband, is not nee
essary from the belligerent point of
view, and that, furthermore, other in
terests are involved which it would
not be desirable to touch on at pres
ent" This plainly refers to the United
States.
There has been a steady accumula-
tion of contracts by large spot houses
during the week and natural explana-
tion is that this is in the interest of
domestic manufacturers. This theory
is supported by the fact that the chief
buyer recently has been a spot inter-
est with New England mill affiliations,
and it is believed that northern spin
ners are using the contract market
to protect themselves against future

SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE
SENDS IN RESIGNATION

Oklahoma City, Okla, Feb. S.-Goy
ernor Williams has received the resig
nation of Judge Dan Huett of the
superior court at Enid. The resigna
tion was handed in in accordance with
the views of Judge Huett who agrees
with Governor Williams that the SUI
perior courts ought to be abolished
He says in his letter to the governor
that there is no need for the court
at Enid and that he considers it an
unnecessary tax on the people. He
says he hopes that the place will be
legally abolished by the legislature.
In recent decision of the supreme
court of the state the validity of the
superior courts was upheld by inyali-
dating the law enacted by the last
legislature repeating the statute that
created them. There was a number
of vacancies in these courts. and Gov
ernor Williams announced that he
would make no appointments to fill
the vacancies, as he did not consider
the courts necessary. This resignation
of Judge Huett adds one more to the
list of vacancies which will reduce the
cost of courts even though the courts
have been declared legal.

PLAN PRIVATE GAME PRESERVE
Local Clubmen Acquire Land and To,
day Obtain a Charter

Already having acquired one large
tract of farm and timber land and hav.
ing obtained options, with the purpose
of buying, ON several other similar
tracts, for the purpose of establishing
a private preserve for the protection of
game, a dozen Harrisburgers who have
organized the Log House Game Associ.
alton, this morning obtained a court
order from Judge Kunkel by which the
society is chartered.
Harvey E. Knupp, local lawyer,
is president of the associations; E. G.
Nissley, vice president; Alfred Johns
ton, secretary, and Joseph Shissler,
treasurer. The directors are George
Knupp, Paul Meyer and Mark Holler.
These officers and directors were the
subscribing applicants for the charter.
The club house, which is typical
log cabin, is situated on ranchlike
tract of land, near Charter Oak, Barry
township, Huntingdon county, that be.
ing about ten miles from Petersburg.
The several tracts of timber and farm
land, on which options have been OBJ,
tanned and which it is planned to buy,
are adjacent to the ground which has
been acquired.
The members Of the. association all
are experienced anglers and since a
trout stream flows through the club s
ground the clubmen concede it to be
the logical place for private reserve.

KNIGHTS OFST. GEORGE MEET
Pass Resolutions Upholding Chief of
State Board of Censors

Resolutions upholding j. Louis
Breitinger, chief of the State Board of
Motion Picture Censors, who has been
attacked by exhibitors and film men
throughout the State, were unanimously
adopted by the members of Branch 16S.
Roman Catholic Knights of st. George,
in session in st. Francis church yes
terday. The Knights went Oh record
as opposed to the measure now pending
in the Legislature to repeal the bill
which created the State moving picture
censorship board.
Copies of the resolutions urging the
continuance of the board were ordered
sent to Governor Brumbaugh, the Leg
islature and to Mr.. Breitinger.
Reports on the suggestion that all
the Catholic societies in Dauphin coun-
ty form a federation were made during
the meeting. These showed that in the
thirteen Catholic churches in the coun-
ty there are about thirty-fve societies,
with an approximate membership of
5000. There are many more Catholics
in the county, but that figure represents
only those who are members of Cath
olic organizations.
During the coming week the commit.
tee on federation will send letters to
the societies asking them to send dele
gates to meeting to be announced la
ter, when plans for the formation of a
permanent organization will be made.

Continued From First Page

there is a possibility of the $27 600

members view the site.
The Planning Commission stamped
its approval ON the measure providing
for the purchases of two plots of
ground for the continuation of the
Cameron Parkway--one from the Pax
tang Cemetery Association and the
other from Amos Enders. The plan, of
w. 5. Harris for plotting a strip of
ground adjacent to the new Reservoir
Park entrance, at Whitehall and Twen-
ty-tirst streets. also was approved.
In confirming those plans, however,
the Commission did so with the pro
viso that no twentyfoot wide alleys
on which houses could be erected-be
provided. The Commission holds that
they either must be ten feet wide
which would prevent building thereon
or forty foot wide streets.

said the police have all the informa.
tion that could be derived from the
holding of an inquest.

Wednesday afternoon ON the charge of
homicide, and in the meantime will be
taken through the third degree.
Numerous and sensational rumors
have been current in the vicinity for
the last ten days, with direct aeeusa.
tions, which finally led Chief of Police
Zimmerman to have che cesspool
cleaned out.
On examination of the child by Cor
oper Light no external marks of vio'
lenee could be found. which led to tine
belief that the baby was thrown into
the pool while alive. The body. al
though in an excellent state of preser'
walton, is believed to have been in the

Little of ths Bowman woman is
known at Lebanon except that she
came here from Reading. She claimed
she is married and has 8 husband NJ
Reading, who deserted her. Her par
ents reside at Bailey, Berks county.
Mrs. Boltz denies that any child was
born in her home, and rhe Bowman
woman denies all allegations made
against her. 1t is probable that "a

will be made within the next few days.

CAN'T GET WILSON HERE
Central Democratic Club Has Trouble
Getting Jefferson Day Speaker

While the Central Democratic Club
is going ahead with the preparations
to hold its Jefferson Day anniversary
banquet, al time not vet fixed. its
members have received an invitation
from the Jefferson Club. of Philadel-
phia, to attend the anniversary Jeffer-
son Day banquet in that city on April
Is, and the club will take action on
the invitation at.its next meeting.
The committee of arrangements of
the Central Club is not without hope
OF obtaining some speaker of-national
repute to attend its banquet as its
guest of honor. 1t has thus far reeeiv-
ed little encouragement in its efforts
TO get President Wilson or a member
of the Cabinet here. 1t has been repre-
sented to the club s committee that at
present President Wilson cannot leave
Washington because of complications
in the Europe and the situation in
Mexico, and for the same reason the
President does not wish any of his
Cabinet members to be absent.
II is thought that some Democratic
Senators from one of the Eastern
States can be obtained for the ban
quet here. The committee will make
another effort to get speaker from
Washington and with that in view will
visit that city next week.
