New York--The market was firm on trade buying early this morning, but after this demand was satisfied the de- pression due to the Italian defeat ana weakness in securities brought about a decline for want of sufficient speculative demand to absorb scattered liquidation, The easing of near months premiums because of undoing of straddles had |considerable to do with the weakness.
 There was no fresh cotton news and no exports. Any more unfavorable war news, together with lack of speculative

Suburbs in Favor of Keeping Hog
 Inside of Corporate Limits of City
B, JOHN c. MOSES

If the present city commission don let us suburbanites keep a pig, I'm sure the incoming commissioners will be with us,' said an Ensley reader of The Age Herald. ''The suburbs helped to put things across this time, and we hope to receive little attention and considera- tiou along the necessaries of life from now on. Some of the boys took a stro'! out along tb, country roads Sunday, try ingfto get line on some growing pigs so as to be ready if the move goes through. The demand will be great, as lots of people are itching to keep a hog
 This is the sentiment all over the dis trict among the class of people who have to make every penny count nowadays. What wastage is saved in the raising of a porker is a pickup, for instead of slop and scraps going into the garbage can it will go into the hog. How about it, MT. Commissioners?
 While business was brisk Monday morning, price changes were few. In flonr and feedstuff slight changes were recorded in about two- thirds of the quo tations, some up, others down.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York October (Special.o-The reports of the disaster to the Italian forces created a pessimistic feeling and brought heavy selling orders from the outside sources who felt that regardless of the very short crop, the market would decline. This proved correct. The con tinued buying by spinners was not suffi- cient to absorb these offerings and those from the south. It is the impression here that the condition of affairs in Europe will be disquieting to holders, although the reports from the south state the of fers are few, as holders believe the de- cline only temporary.

MICHAELIS TO GET OUT?
Georg Bernhard of Vossiche Zeitung
Discusses Possibility of Change in
Ofice-Tascblatt Raps Government.

Copenhagen. Aug 2S-The posi-
bility of another change in imperial
chancellors in Germany is discussed
by Georg Bernhard in the Vossiche
Zeitung. He says that it is plainly
evident already that the appointment
of a minor official like DR.. Michaelis
without general political experience
was a great mistake and that the re-
suits desired are not apt to be reached
quickly under the leadership of the
new administration. Parliament, he
argues, must take the matter of in
ternal reforms and peace into it's own
hands. Herr Bernhard still hopes
that Chancellor Michaelis will see the
error of his ways and avoid the neces-
sity for another change in the chancel-
lerShip.
Theodore Wolff of the Tageblatt dis
misses the new Bundesrath- Reichstag
committee as "nostrum designed to
scothe the cry of the German people
for popular control of the govern
ment" He attacks DR.. Michaelis' rea-
sons for side-tracking parliamentary
reform until after the war and says
that the truth is that parliamentarism
is not desired just now because it
would impose real control upon gov
eminent and end the domination Of
secret influences.

SOAP BOX ORATORS
InStruCtS Police Not to Permit
InCiterS to Speak

New York, Aug. 2S-Mayor Mitchell
took action yesterday looking toward
the muzzling of soap box agitators
of the type of Russell Dunno, the
young man who has been making
street speeches in various parts Of
the city attacking the Jews. DUNES
harangue was resented by a young
militiaman and a riot was narrowly
averted.
The mayor wrote letter to Police
Commissioner Woods not only direct
ing him to instruct the police to make
arrests for such breaches as that
committed by Dunno, but also order
ing an investigation into the action
of Police Sergt. O'Connor in permit
ting Dunno to escape after his arrest
had been ordered by Justice Leonard
A. Snitkin Of the municipal court.
District Attorney Swami also began
an inquiry into DUNES offenses. In
addition prominent Jews of the city
made preliminary arrangements for
a mass meeting to be held at the
Young Mems Hebrew Association
clubhouse, Lexington avenue and
Ninety-second street, Thursday night,
when steps will be taken in an in
CURRY to determine what influence, if
any, are behind Dunno in his cam
paign Of religious agitation.
Dunn has been posing as a repre-
sentative of the Midday Minute Men
. but Francis Schmidt, vice president,
speaking for the organization, en-
phatically disclaimed any responsible
ity for the young mans utterances on
religious or racial questions.
Though the police permitted Dunno
to escape Saturday afternoon Justice
Snitkin saw to it that he was arrested
later, and Magistrate Francis x. Nc
Quade held the speaker in $500 bail
for trial tonight on a disorderly con-
duct charge.
Mayor Mitcheps letter to Police
Commissioner Woods follows:
"since writing you my letter con
| corning utterances by street speakers
