 NJ. R. Sutherland, local manager said yesterday, We know a great many cases where such a course would not have been practical as very few prop critics have been developed before their stock was offered to the public, and in such event the only thing to do would be to send mining engineer, which would entail a big expense, and even then his report would likely be in 'technical' terms. and most com panies have these expert reports on file, and it is understood that Mir, Young is not an engineer, but g prac tical mining man.

MINING MAN LIKES
 HIS LITTLE DODGE

McArthur Brothers, local distributors for Dodge Brothers Motor cars, yester- day received a day letter from a Dodge enthusiast at Tucson:
 Tucson, Arizona, October 6. 1916. McArthur Brothers, Phoenix, Arizona: My hat is off to the Dodge in the min ing game. Just drove in from Tor tillito Copper Company camp, making the 38 miles in one hour and twenty minutes, or fifteen minutes faster than any other run l know of, and I never drove a Dodge before-all on high without a single shift. Ellsworth I. Chapman, General Manager, Tortillito Copper Company"
 The Dodge is becoming the univer- sal car in Arizona. It has proven it's special merit by it's continued and sue eessful use in mining camps over rough mountain roads, and particularly with the army service, notably, Pershing's column in Mexico.

PRICES SOFTEN ON
 DRY GOODS MARKET
Market Shows Usual Irregu- larities of Season, B ut De-
 mand Restores Prices
By Hop"

New York. June 4.-Prices have softened little on some constructions of wide print cloths during the past week, while trading has been principally between
 second hands and in emau volume. Outside of these lines there has been little sign of weakening in any quarter, and 1t is stated by traders that any de- mand for more goods to be made by mills will quickly bring about restora- ton of values. Bleached sheets. branded brown sheetings, and colored cottons show no change. There have been the usual Irregularities noticed at this sea- son of the year in a few lines of fine and fancy cottons, but even in this quarter selling agents have made no change and the declines have occurred in second hand distribution. The week passed without any evidence of increased interest among jcbbers for goods for fall, in addition to the large quantities for which com mitments have already been made Mills continue to run as full as labor scarcity will permit. Knit goods lines opened for spring have been ordered well thus far, despite the very drastic price uplift made necessary by the high costs of yarns
 Export trade In cotton goods continues large, and many new markets are buy ing. Prices quoted on cotton goods are as follows: Print cloths. 2S-inch, 64xs4 s, 414c 64x60s, 4sc; SS15-inch, 64x64s S. 57sd6c;

100000 To Delaware College

Delaware College, at Newark, has
received an additional gift of 100000,
bringing the total gifts within a year
to the college, virtually all from the
same donor, to S1,000,000. While the
donors name is not made public Pierre
S. DUPONT, president of the dupont
Powder Company, is supposed to be
the friend of the institHtion who has
so generously remembered it.
H. Rodney Sharp, chairman of the
development committee of the college
board of trustees. announced the gift
on Monday.
When bids were received for remod-
cling the old dormitory building. esti-
mated at first to cost about $4,000, 1T
was found that owing to increase in
the cost of labor and other incidentals,
it would take $4,000 more TO carry
out the original plans and an addi-
tional $4,000 for kicthen equipment. 1t
also was found that 100000 additional
would be needed for the installation of
the complete equipment for Wolfe
Hall, the science building now in the
course of construction. 1t was also
decided to do some grading in connec-
tion with boulevard. which made a
total of 100000 needed to complete
which the committee had undertaken,
and it is for these purposes that the
new gift will be used.
