In Germany Now According to
a Report Published by a
Frankfort Newspaper.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
FRANKFORT, Germany, Dec. IT,
The Frankfort Zeitung publishes the
following report Of conditions in the
German cotton industry, dated from
Munchen-Gladbach, November IL:
During the last three months bust
ness In the German cotton industry
has been extremely quiet. Meanwhile
the use Of cotton and cotton waste has
been regulated in such way that
these raw materials can hardly be
used at all except for army purposes.
Consequently, the existing stocks OF
yarn having been used up, and the
transition period having expired, the
free activity of most of the mills is
checked, and the closing of a num-
Der Of spinning and weaving mills Is
to be expected; in some cases, indeed,
II has already taken place. During
the last three months cotton has been
uncommonly dear in Germany. The
price of middling in the open market
at Bremen was about double the price
which prevailed before the interven-
ton OF Italy, and about treble the price
at the beginning of August, 1914.
1.-THE situation as regards cotton
waste is similar to the situation as
regards cotton. Germany and Austria
were always important buyers Of Eng
lish, American and Indian waste. Since
the disappearance Of these two buyers
II is said that enormous stocks of cot
ton waste have accumulated in Ian
cashire and also In Bombay.
Employment in the German cotton
spinning mills has fallen off very
much in consequence Of the official reg
ulations. Yarns are no longer deliv-
cred except to purchasers who can
prove that they will be used for the
carrying out OF army contracts, and
as such orders are not on a very great
scale business Is stagnant Deliveries
are kept within the narrowest limits.
and there have been very few new
bargains during the last few months,
Business in imitation and fancy yarns
is rather more active, as it is also in
the mills which produce two-cylinder
yarn, because these businesses can use
the various kinds Of cotton waste the
employment Of which Is permitted by
the regulations. A large number, how
ever, of cotton, cotton waste. and also
Imitation mills have preferred to stop
work. -
"The position in the German cotton
weaving indsutry has been unfavor-
able during the last three months.

Victim
Of Many Unusual Mishaps is
Man, Now Inmate of a
Hospital.

wINoNA, MINI, Dec. 17.-Charles
Johnson, aged 62 years and an inmate
in hospital here, Is the victim Of
q series of unusual mishaps. Early
last summer he was injured while
working on the railroad track as a
section hand near Lingerwood, n. d.
After recovering he went back to
work and saved $122.50.
With his savings in his pockets,
Johnson went to Minneapolis, where
he was held up, robbed and beaten by
two men. This sent him to the hos
pital. When discharged he walked
to Red Wing. where sympathetic per-
sons bought him ticket to Winona.
He walked to Minnesota, and at
that point stepped into a twelve foot
culvert and badly injured his leg. He
was assisted back to winona, where
he is still receiving treatment.

NATIONAL PARKS
VALUABLE ASSETS

And this fact has been discovered
BY the many only this year. Having
an incentive in the expositlous on
the Pacific coast. and Europe being
closed. thousands have for the first
time crossed the continent and seen
one or more OF the national parks.
That such mountains and glaciers,
lakes and Canyons. forests and
waterfalls were to be found in this
country was revelation to many,
who heard but had not believed. 1t
would appear from the experience of
this year that the real awakening
as to the value OF these parks has at
last been realized, and that those
who have hitherto found themselves
entlced by the beauty OF the Alps and
the Rhine and the soft loneliness of
the valleys of France. may find equal
IL not more stimulating satisfaction

Smith was smilingly referred to.
