Rev. Fred Ingley, Judge G. E. Randall

ployed. From this information, which
will show the total number Of men
employed, the number of single men
and the number of single men boarding,
together with the trades and nationah-
ties represented, the committee will be
able to determine definitely the asso-
citation needs of the city.
From the school census, they will de-
termine the number of boys available
for the boys department, which will
be a separate department from the men.
Further facts revealed by an inves-

WANTED PRETTY sTccKINes.
Frank Marasco Had 1876 Pairs Which
He is Alleged to Have Stoler from
Black Cat Textiles Co.

Silks stockings of all the hues of the
rainbow, silk stockings for men and
women and the finest fabrics made BY
any stocking company, made up the
loot which the police recovered on Mon
day night when they searched the
rooms of Frank Marasco, who was be-
ing held on another charge. He had
one hundred and thirty-six pairs of the
stockings and while the prisoner may
have been little rough looking when
he appeared N court his Judgment as
to stockings would rank with the best.
He had formerly been employed in the
finishing room of the Black Ca Textiles
Company and he admitted to the police
that he had been making the collection
of stockings for some time. He had
half trunk filled with the ''silks He
is charged with petty larceny, but it is
probable that there will be enough
charges CT this kind against him to
keep him in court for some time The
stockings taken were valued at more
than sixty dollars.

them to the First National Bank Of
Kenosha. The bonds viii bring par
and a premium of $4,000. There is no
string tied to the bond sale with the
exception of the customary provision
that they are subject to the examina-
ton of tie attorneys for the bank.
With the dismissal of the injunctional
proceedings by Judge Belden on Mon
day afternoon it is thought that all
question of the validity of the bonds
has been removed and that there viii
be no appeal from the decision of Sic
lower court. Should an appeal be
taken it is probable that the town Of
fcers will make some way to temper
arily provide funds until the matter is
settled by the higher courts. They
hold that their attorneys feel that the
decision CT Judge Belden is so firmly
entrencheG by law tat there will be
no chance for any reversing of it.
Now that the town bonds are sold it
is expected that immediate action
will be taken to sell the county
bonds. The total raised by the town
bonds will be $75,445.

THE MARKETS
NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Jan. 25.-sEforts of
recent sellers to get their contracts
back gave the cotton market a rather
steady tone around the opening to-
day. In the first half hour of bust
ness the active months rose 8 to IL
points. The main influence at work
was the increased demand for the ac-
tual cotton.
The continued large export move
ment stimulated buying in the after
noon, and in the trading up TO 1870
the active months went to q net adj
vance of 81 to % points.
Cotton futures closed steady at an

New York. Jan. 25.-The cotton
market opened steady today on bull
ish overnight spot advices, with first
prices points lower on January but
generally l to IL points higher. De-
mand >was limited, however, while
Liverpool seemed to be selling here
on the narrower differences, and the
market soon turn easier under scat
tered realizing. May sold off from
1923 to 17.15 before the end of the
first hour, or back to about last
nights closing figures. The character
of the early trading suggested that
the scattering local short interest had
pretty well covered, and business was
very quiet after the opening. It was
rumored that the British government
has been making canvass in Lam
cashire with view to determining
the minimum amount of cotton need
ed by the British mills for the ball
ance of the season.
Reports of an improving spot de-
mand from domestic mills seemed to
inspire more active demand later in
the morning and by midday May had
advanced to 1888, or Is points net
higher.
Trading continued quiet toward the
middle of the afternoon, but prices
