That the increasing hesitation in business,

appreciable augmentation of the commercial

sequent slowing down of activity, August fail
ures are little changed from those of July and
in number less than in any August III the

there were LAC defaults, not including sus-

1t has been in the Industrial field that the
doubts about prices have had the greatest in
fluence in restraining new business, and the in
tense heat of late July and early August caused
material curtailment of operations at many
establishments. The labor shortage, which has
become intensified men have been withdrawn
from productive enterprise, has also tended to
limit outputs and shipments, and the delays In
deliveries through transportation congestion
have held up settlement of some accounts. Yet

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-There was re-
newal of Liverpool selling in the cotton market
at the opening today. There also seemed to be
selling here from southern tources, with the
pressure in both instances attributed to hedg-
ing, and after starting steady at decline of 2
to IL points, active months sold 10 TO 81 points
under last nights closing figures. This break
carried October off to 2O.93 and January TO
20.7O and the market then steadied on cover
ing which was promoted by complaints OF too
much rain and weevil damage from some sec
lions of the eastern belt.
Covering became more active later IN the
morning. The relative firmness Of October at
tributed to the small supply OF cotton mere
available for delivery on contract and reports
of difficulty In securing shipments from the
south were factors on the advance which car
ried October up to 81 80 and January to 21.O7,
16 to IS points net higher.
Changes were small in the early afternoon,
but the market retained its steadtness due TO
continued bullish spot news from the south
and OF floods in parts OF Mississippi.
October sold up to 81 40 and January to Il 20,

WOMEN SUFFRAGlSTS
 TO SPEAK HERE TODAY
Mrs. 0. F. Ellington and Miss Ger. trude Watkins to Make Addresses
 at Local Theatres. :.

Mrs. O. r. Ellington, president of the Arkansas Women's Suffrage as sociation, and Miss Gertrude Watkins, organizer for the National American Woman Suffrage association, will make addresses in Pine Bluff this evening Mrs. Ellington appearing at the Best theatre, and Miss Watkins at the Orpheo.
 Why the women of Arkansas should pay the poll tax before July 1, and thus qualify to vote in primary elec.- : tions. and the attitude of Southern women suffragists toward the conduct of members of the Congressional union for Woman Suffrage, whose silent sentinels' at the white house have brought condemnation upon them, will be the subject discussed by the ladies. Southern women suffra- gists are not in sympathy with the practices of the silent sentinels" of the Congressional union, nor does Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the American Woman Suffrage as sociation approve of the methods adopted.
 The part that woman is playing in this war, and the frequent calls for aid from her by the federal state and municipal authorities will be cited as further evidence that woman is en- titled to the ballot.

UNITY OF zIONISTS NEARER THAN EVER NOW
Convention At Baltimore Debates for Two Hours and Accepts Report and
 Recommendation of Secretary.

Baltimore, June 25-American Zion ism drew nearer today to unity with American Jews than at any time in recent history.
 The report of Louis Lipsky, secre- tary of the federation was the subject of debate at the Zionist convention between administration and opposing forces. The report counselled strict adherence to the peace agreement be- tween Zionists and anti-Zionists, under which the latter agreed to par ticipate in the coming Jewish confer ence in Washington. The report was accepted in the convention.
 Secretary Lipsky declared for re- organization of Zionism. It must be able, he said, to embrace all Jews.
 A conference will be held tomorrow to amend the constitution and give each Zionist more interest in the organization.

His Briqht Idea.

When the European war was in its Infancy Hangers back" found them selves continually taken to task. A grocer's clerk, calling for the usual or der, was scornfully asked why he was not answering his country's call. Thinking he could see good customer slipping away, an excuse was desper. ately urgent. Fortunately an incoming customer relieved the position, and @ happy idea came his way: "Madam." |" he replied, 'perhaps if l told you I've not all my toes on one foot you would scarcely believe it." This aroused the sympathy of the woman, whereupon he got an increased order.
