CABINET NOT To
QUIT PRESIDENT
Attorney General Gregory is
Only Member Likely to
Quit Place.

WASHINGTON. Dec. EVERY
member OF Pres't Wilson's cabinet
with the possible exception of Atty.
Gen. Gregory is expected to remain
in office after March 4. when the
presidents second term begins. It
was learned definitely Monday that
all of them have heen or will be
asked 10 keep their posts.
Reports concerning possible resig
nations have centered chiefly around
Sec'ys McAdoo, Houston, and Baker,
and the attorney general IT has been
taken for granted that Postmaster
General Burleson and Sec'ys Lam
sing, Daniels, and Wilson would re-
main and indefinite rumors that
Sec'y Redfeld might want TO retire
to private business were denied
some time ago.
Sec'y McAdoo Monday personally
denied that he had any intention of
resigning. The reports in his case
have been most persistent. in spite
of denials by officials close TO the
president.
Regarding Mr.. Houston, it be-
came known that the officials OF
Washington university, at st. Louis,
have extended his leave of absence
as chancellor of that institution so
that he can continue as head of the
department of agriculture. Because
of the Investigations into the high
cost of living. and other important
work undertaken by Sec'y Houston,
the president is known TO consider
his continued service in the cabinet
as highly desirable
Although Sec'y Baker has been
credited with a desire TO leave the
cabinet, il is learned that in all
likelihood he will remain. It is un-
derstood however. that there is a
posi- biIity that he may be shifted
10 the department of justice, If
Mr.. Gregory insists on resigning and
that Vance Mccormick, chairman Of
the democratic national committee
may be placed in charge of the war
department.

WILL
BORROW MONEY
First Farm Loan Association
in County is Formed
Monday Night.

The first farm loan association or
ganized TO operate under the new
farm loan act in St Joseph county
was formed at a meeting Of a num-
Der Of leading farmers Of Clay and
Harris townships at the StO-c-
school house Monday night. The
farmers subscribed S1.197.50 in
stock. which will give them a loan
OF S23.95O when the regional farm
loan bank is organized and the sys-
tenn begins to operate.
The only things necessary for or
ganizing a farm loan association
under the new act is for at least 10
farmers to get together and form an
association. After the act begins to
operate they may secure appraise-
ment of their property and loans on
il up TO the appraised value Of the
land and 20 percent Of the improved
property To secure these loans
they must each. however, subscribe
five percent Of the loan as capital
stock in the Farm Reserve bank.
The country will be divided into
II sections and a farm loan bank
located in each. These sections will
practically correspond 10 the divis-
ion of the present federal reserve
system. The location of the differ
ent banks has not yet been made.
but the government is urging the
farmers to begin Immediately form
ing farm loan associations so that
the system may be swiftly put into
operation once the locations of the
banks are chosen. The new act has
been pronounced one of the best
pieces of legislation favoring the
farmer enacted in many years.
Credit for the organization of the
local farm loan association is due to
the efforts of County Agent John
Bordner and to Judge Louis NJ.
Hammerschmidt, who have taken
advantage of every occasion to point
out TO the farmer the advantages
OF the new law Another meeting
will be held Friday evening in an
effort TO organize another associa-
ton in a different part of the coun-
~.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. December 14.-With con flicting rumors of war and peace set dement's the traders are rapidly be- coming thoroughly confused, Many who, long before the recent decline are positive that an armstice will be declared in the near future, others hold that the allies cannot afford to bear the onus of continuing the war The ticker reports statements from Washington as to peace. rumors com ing from the embassies which are promptly denied by the same authori- ties within an hour.
 The severe decline in the stock mar ket will not encourage merchants to buy cotton goods. The embargo on the movement of freight cars cheeks the movement of the crop.
 War insurance rates, which range from $9 to SIS bale on export cot ton, checks export buying and the re- ceipts at the ports are light. Con- sumption figures are about what was expected The market was heavy all day until the last l 5 minutes, when room traders bought freely, closing the marlkt firm. with sales afterward points lower on denials from Wash ington.

COTTON MARKET
 SHOWS STRENGTH
RumOr That England Was Willing to Make Peace
 Sends Prices Up

New Orleans, December 1.-Two periods of strength developed in cot ton on this market today, one around the opening on the bullish showing by the census bureau report on November consumption, and the other around the close on rumors that England was will ing to make peace, In between, prices sagged under realizing for profits by recent buyers. On the early bulge prices were carried 26 to 31 points over yes- terday's last prices; from this there was sag until the net advance amounted to only to points. The rise toward the close carried the mar ket to new high levels for the day, where the trading months were B to S9 points up The close was very steady at net gain of 8 to 37 points.
 The total consumption by American mills during November of 649,073 bales of cotton and linters impressed the trade strongly. Probably not over 600, ,0OO bales were exported, The increase in active spindles to 32,753 937, the largest number ever turned in a single month in this country, served to intensity bullish feeling. The disposition to buy was increased by much higher cables than due, but after the early trading the market turned dull and the ad- vance was pared down. Late in the day sudden activity was inspired by peace rumors which had just the opposite effect of recent similar rumors.

Chas. FairehiIds 6 Co.'s Letter

New York, December H-The cotton market today went through it's usual gyrations. Quick advances were followed by equally quick breaks Tn the clos ing hour, with prices at the bottom and a further decline apparently inevitable. the market advanced rapidly on rumor that England would consider Germanys peace proposal. The local crowd was heavily short and the rush to cover prices quickly rallied about S5 points. To our minds England's consideration of Ger many's proposition does not imply ac- ceptance. There is a vast difference be- tween the expressions. English subjects everywhere would doubtless resent any arbitrary rejection of any offer leading to peace. On the other hand, they would unquestlonably uphold the governments rejection of any offer that involved loss of territory to England and it's allies. Therefore if our analysis of the situation proves correct, declining markets may pc seen tomorrow, in which case however we think purchases advisable. The mar ket is apparently cleaned out of all big lines of long cotton and a fair-sized re- cession wauld doubtless inspire renewed buying by some of the recent bulls, who were credited as having liquidated around 21 cents.
 Cotton oil worked within narrow limits. We will favor purchases of May.

SHARP ADVANCE !. ON COTTON MARKET
Close Was Irregular and at Net Advance of 30 to
 50 Points

New York, December 1A-The cotton market showed continued nervousness and irregularity today. but in the main re- flected a more optimistic view of peace prospects and advanced sharply in the late trading view. May selling at lS.92c or g points above last nights closing figure. The close was irregular net B to 40 points higher.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of IS to 24 points and sold P to 30 points net higher right after the call on covering and bull support inspired by higher cables, favorable Manchester trade advices and the we'll sustained volume of domestic mill consumption as indicated by the census report.
 The advance of about 4S points from yesterdays level met increased offerings, tive sellers as though influenced by an unsettled stock market and prices broke back to within a point or two of yes terday's final figures before the end of the morning. Around 1S.07c for January and 18 34c for March the market steadied It looked as though the Wall street liqui- dation caused by the break in stocks had been pretty well absorbed and the after noon advance was assisted by western and Wall street buying, as well as by covering and a moderate demand from trade sources.
 The support became more active and aggressive following reports that the all lies would make known their peace terms and the highest prices of the day were reached in the late trading with Janu- ary selling at 42c and March at 1S70c or al a net advance of 37 to A points on the active deliveries.
 Closing prices were a few points oft frcm the best under realizing. The cen sus report showing domestic mill con sumption of 2,492,298 bales for the first four months of the season, linters in cluded, was said to be at the rate of about 7.475,000 bales for the season. Private cables reported that the latest estimates of prominent London author ities placed the American crop at 12, 750,- 0C0 bales and the worlds consumption at II, ,75o,O00 Private cables said a large busi- ness was being put through in Manches- ter. Exports today were 25.392 bales making 2,746,09S so far this season.
