TURKEYS AT FIVE

Pittsburgh, Nov. 29.-As a result of
a boycott declared by housewives,
live turkeys sold as low as five cents

the spectators found that opening
bids for the turkeys only reached
three cents pound. Late the bid
ding was brisker and recovered to five
cents, many turkeys selling at that
figure.

MANY LUNCHEONS
 AT THE TUTWILER

Yesterday was truly day of gala events, for society lunched and teaed and dined in a real metropolitan way, brim- ming over with the enthusiasm of grand opera
 The Tutwiler was the scene of many lovely luncheon parties, when the ultra fashionable world lunched to the strains of an augmented orchestra. One ex- tremely lovely party of charming ma irons was given by Mrs. John l.. Kaul on the mezzanine floor. where IS of so- ciety's favorites were seated
 Another attractive party of modishly gowned matrons was Mrs. B. F. Roden's s party. At another table were Mrs. Hu- bert Scruggs, Mrs. Borden Burr. Mrs Eugene Smith of Sylacauga and Mrs Sam Henderson of Talladega. Jonquils and narcissi were beautifully arranged on the different tables, where smartly gowned maids and matrons lunched.
 Others noted in the cafe were Mrs Leroy Percy, Mrs. Matthews Murphy Mir. Walker Percy, MT. Leroy Percy Miss Elizabeth Caldwell Locke, Miss Mary Mott Williams. Mrs c. O.. Locke Mrs George Morrow, Mir. Hugh Morrow Mir Tom Garner of Tuscaloosa Miss Emee McCrossin, Miss Cecile McCrossin Miss Florence McCrossin. Mrs, Thomas Morris, Mrs. John T.

SOUTHERN SELLING
 EXPRESSES COTTON
General List Closes at Net Loss of From F to 15
 Points

New York, February 15.-The cotton market was a little more active to- day with prices declining under local liquidation and southern selling. May contracts sold off to 12c, or about 2S points under the high level reached on the rally of last week and closed at 12.O1c with the general list clos ing steady at a net loss of from 12 to Is points.
 The market opened steady at de- cline of 3 to 4 points in response to rather disappointing Liverpool cables. There was considerable covering around the initial prices and the mar ket held steady right after the call, but soon turned easier owing to in- creased weakness in Liverpool and con- tinued scattering liquidation through Wall street houses. Rumors that the easier turn in Liverpool might reflect improvement in the freight situation helped to cause rallies of 2 or 8 points late in the morning, but were not con firmed and the market later became easier under rather more general sell ing, which was accompanied by re- ports of increased southern hedging and rumors that recent local buyers were liquidating. Trade interests were moderate buyers of July on scale down, presumably against calling by spinners, but the demand from that source was by no means active and prices reached the low level of the day in the late trading March sold at 11.78c, July at 12.1Sc and October at 12.32c, or IA to IS points under last nights closing figures and the market closed at practically the low point of the day. A report was received from Texas saying that unfavorab1e grain crop prospects might lead to increased acreage in cotton and there was also a report from Georgia that planters were planning increased area These advices may possibly have contributed to the decline, but did more influence in the late trading by apprehensions of labor troubles in New England mill circles.
