Observation-Disclosures Of Location
Count Most in Selection Of City in
Which to Build. ISL " I'll

The committee which visited Mar
shalltown Monday for the purpose Of
examining this city as a possible To-
cation for college which the Baptists
plan to build somewhere in Iowa, re-
turned to Des Moines in the evening
and investigated Iowa Falls today.
, DR.. Frank w. Padelford, OF Boston,
representing the general board of edu-
cation of the Baptist denomination,
told the local committee that 1t was
planned to establish a college which
would have at least an endowment OF
a million dollars within q very few
years, and which would do college
work Of the highest rank equal In
every respect to the college at Grin
nell. lie said that an endowment OF
hah million would be secured before
actual construction would begin on
new college, that the college
would be a UNCONVENTIONAL school with
dormitories for the girls, and that It
should have 900 students at the start,
growing to 500 students in a very few
years, but that 1t would probably not
be desired ever to grow much beyond
600 or 700 students, as it had been dis
covered that colleges do their best
work when they do not exceed that
number Of students in strictly col
legiate departments.
Would Serve Three States.
DR.. Padelford said that there was
no Baptist college in Minnesota or Ne

braska, ana that the college In Iowa
was being planned TO serve those three
states, but that the college would be
conducted on broad lines, as most de-
nominational colleges now are man
aged so that It would be free to serve
all students, regardless Of their
church affiliations.
No Bid AZ Vet For Location.
The local committee made no bid or
offer except to request the college site
committee to make up its mind as to
Marshalltown. II 'Marshalltown shall
be selected as an available location for
the best interests Of the college, the
local committee will be invited to offer
site and cash contribution to the
endowment such as the citizens Of
Marshalltown viii be willing to raise.
Many Towns Want College.
The present college plant at Des
Moines is to be sold, and a new college
built somewhere. If it remains at Des
Moines 1t will be built on a new site.
so that the choice of the committee
must fall finally between Des .Moines,
Waterloo, Iowa Falls, or iMarshalltown,
altho there are other smaller places
bidding. Waterloo has offered approx
mately 100000 for the college, and
Iowa Falls offers to merge Ellsworth
College with an endowment Of $3.50, 900.

fession he deposited $50 with the coun-
ty attorney for fine, and took the
county attorneys receipt. Sawin agreed
to plead guilty IN court and not to re-
sist an application for an injunction
against himself and the property I'm

Scott accepted the $50 and agreed not
to insist on a larger fine when Sawin
should plead guilty In court and be

Once before Sawin had paid money
to have the case fixed" That expert
ence cost him Sis early Monday fore
noon. AT that time cook who has
been employed in the Johnston cafe, in
the depot district. and In Townsend's
restaurant East Main street, who is
known as Jess Riemer, came to Sawfn
and offered to six" the case for Sis,
1t is alleged. Attic it Is said that
Sawin's acquaintance with Riemer
dates back no further than a few
weeks, Sawin gave Riemer O check for
800 and SIS in CASH Riemer returned
with the check, said the banks were
not open so he could not cash it, and
wanted the coin. Sawin took the check
and substituted the money. Z
Riemer, according to the proposed
process Of fixing" was to "sweeten''
the police and the county attorney and
stop proceedings. He did not return by
noon. BY midafternoon, when Sawin
confessed to Scott and told the story,
Riemer had still not showed up. Scott
prepared a charge of obtaining money
by false pretenses against Riemer and
Sawin filed it. but so far as officers
know Riemer has not been seen.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. November 20.-There
was an extremely active and excited
opening in the cotton market here to-
day with first prices firm at an advance
of 20 to 80 points on the active months
and of points on October. All posi-
lions made new high records. with
January selling up to 20.M and May to
u - right after the call, or about 80
to ~ points net higher. There was
heavy realizing at this level, and later
fluctuations were more or less irregular.
but buying was encouraged by bullish
southern spot advices and the sensa
tional strength of Liverpool. Private
cables reported a wildly excited open
ing abroad. with heavy trade buying
and covering against Fridays business
in Manchester. and also said the market
there feared there would not be enough
cotton.
Futures opened firm; December. 2O.9O
to 2o.so; January, 20.SU to 20.91; March,
Pill: May. 21.25: July. 21.30.
Heavy realizing sales were absorbed
on reactions of 10 or ~ points during
the middle of the morning. Otherwise
there was no pressure against prices,
and as soon as prof1t-taking diminished.
the market developed renewed strength
on buying by trade interests and con-
tinued bull support. After easing off
TO 2O.S6. January rallied to 20.94. while
May sold up from 21.20 to 21.29, with
the market showing net gains of 80 to
40 points shortly after midday.
