Cotton closed steady at an advance of II to 83 points. The range:
New York Cotton.

New York, Nov. 14.-The cotton market showed renewed nervousness and irreguality during today's early trading. The unsettling character of European political news appeared to overshadow both the bullish census report on domestic mill consumption for October and the belief that the employment of neutral tonnage in coastwise and South American trade would improve the export situation. The market opened steady an an ad- vance of 3 points to decline Of z points but soon sold g to 13 points net lower with January 9 to 1S points net lower with January touching 27.O3 and March 26.51. There was southern and Wall street selling on the decline but the market found support on a scale down and there was scattered covering on the consumption report. < The calculation of the domestic consumption figures seemed to bring in an increased trade demand toward the middle of the morning and taere were also bullish spot advices from the southwest. Covering by early sellers became active on the advance which carried January up to 27.39 and March to 2699 with the general list selling 21 to Al points net higher. Near months were relatively quiet but December sold at 28.2O making 8 new high record for the season.
 The market showed continued firm ness during the afternoon on reports of good spot demand, together with further buying by trade interests sup posed to be against spinners calling and covering. January sold up to 27.47 and March to 27.1S, making new high records for the season with tae general list selling 26 to 50 points net higher.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Nov. 14.--The bull ish showing of the census bureau mill statistics for October caused buying on the opening of the cotton market here today, but after a rise Of to z points on the strongest months there were heavy offerings which caused a setback Much of the selling ap- peared to come from realizing longs. At tbe end of the first nalf hour prices were ? to IA points under yes terday's close.
 After more mature consideration of the mill statistics, the trade went to buying again and prices made a ready response to the pressure. In the trading up to noon the active months were forced IS to 49 points above yesterdays final quotations.
 The feature of the afternoon was the narrowing of differences between the distant and near months owing to the undoing of straddles. The near months stood still while the dis tant months climbed. At l o'clock prices were IS to 22 points up on the near months and 66 to 72 points up on the distant montas compared with yeSterday'S finals.

 TO DISSOLVE
 COTTON TRUST

Oklahoma City, Nov. Ex-Governor R. L. Williams yesterday filed suit against more than 1000 concerns en' xaged in ginning. storing and. hand ling cotton alleging that 9 gigantic trust has been formed in this com modity discriminating against legit' innate trading in the staple.
 The principal contention set forth in the petition is that the defendants have formed "an unlawful combina' tion. trust and monopoly in unreason able restrain of trade" and that tn! price of cotton, cotton seed and ita products have been so manipulated as to discriminate against different communities and indivduals.

A few days after the Bingham
school in Mishawaka opened for the
present term. little Wing Chow, IA
years old of China. took his place in
the ranks OF pupils. Across the
turbulent waters he had come with
out the comforting presence OF
either father or mother. though
kindly friends looked after his well
fare.
The boys and girls OF the Bing-
ham school have been so interested
in little Wing and his progress that
the school editor thought the other
children might enjoy hearing some
thing about him, too. because il isn't
often that a little Chinese boy or
girl either, for that matter. comes
TO the schools in this part OF the
country. In fact Wing is possibly
the only Chinese boy to enter school
here within a good many years. Each
week since Wing has been at school
the school editors have included
some item concerning him until
know that all the other girls and
boys are wondering about him.
The proprietor of the Chinese
laundry. Sing Lee Mark. a cousin Of
Wing at 124 Main ST., Mishawaka. is
acting as his guardian and through
the efforts Of his friends, the board
of directors Of the Mishawaka
schools were prevailed upon TO al
low Wing TO enter the public schools
From the little information gain
ed by the teachers Wings mother
is in China and his father in New
York. and has been in this country
about four or five months He Is
naturally dark and quite small for
all Of his II years. and he scarcely
speaks a word of the American
language. BY repeated motions and
gestures the teachers have been able
. to make him understand what is
wanted of him and within the past
week or so he has learned 10 say

His method Of education in the
schools here. of course. will differ

ing department. is surprisingly well
done. The very first day he was
taken into the department he made
a bound for the work table and with
q broad I'm on familiar ground"
smile started in 20 work. He espe-
cially likes TO paint and draw and
OF his own accord. when he has
nothing definite TO do. gets up from
his seat, reaches for a picture from
the wall and hustles back TO his seat
TO begin 10 draw.
We must not neglect TO say some
thing of his manliness and general
conduct for they are much above
the average boy OF that age. Where
other boys would feel ashamed of
being in the lower grade with the lit
tie children Wing seemed to take il
as a matter Of fact and all in the
game.
His program OF class work for
each day is as follows: Morning.
First period writing with the fourth
grade; music fifth grade: arith-
metic. third grade. He also has an
arithmetic period with the sixth
grade where the work Is done en-
tirely by sight. Afternoon-physical
training and drawing, seventh grade
He has special work each day for
Commute period in English and
reading. and manual training one
hour each week, and ball after

a great deal from that OF the Amer
lean children because OF his inabil-
ity 10 understand and to read. No
effort has been spared by the prin-
cipal and teachers ito map out a
program of classes that will meet his
particular case. He is taken 10 a
different class room for almost every
study and is hustled from one place
70 the other all 10 mis- absolute be-
wilderment. yet he's always smiling
questioningly into the teachers eyes
mutely asking them what next TO do.
Wing has completely settled himself
IN the hearts Of all the teachers and
even the smallest children in the
one-B grade are interested in him
and help him in their own little
ways. The older boys. too, very
readily admitted him TO their games
and take the greatest pains TO teach
him their way of playing. He has
become so we'll acquainted that he
often grabs the boys by the arms
just as he would playmates Of his
own nationality. and in his excite
ment starts talking in his native
tongue. Wing seldom does talk in
his own language though for he
seems TO know that no amount of
effort serves to make them under
stand.
The teachers feel sure that Wing
has been very apt in his studies
abroad because of the alertness with
which he has gone about his work
here. His work in the manual train
