reason why the Chamberlain bill for

On account Of the expense, not one boy

Jimmie owned colt worth 500; that
he would make almost another $1OO on
his potatoes if they turned out we'll,
and that he had from his previous
savings, bought 500 Liberty bond.
Bilhe's plan was to have Jimmie cash
in and 90 with him. He was disap.
pointed to find that Jimmie would still
lack about $500 of having enough to
see him through. His lip quivering, he
said: "I'm mighty sorry to leave Jim

Uncle Dan was silent a moment or
two, then he asked Billie to go down
to the orchard and get him some ap-
Piles to eat on the train. While he was
gone, it was arranged that Uncle Dan

he was told about it. He ran to the

New Orleans, November 4.--ToIlowing on this market last week, closed at practically the level of the prece Eng
 week, the net change for the week be- ing decline of only to points At,
 one time prices were 63 to S1 points under the last quotations of the week before and at another they were 59 to 65 points
 above, the range being 12S to 140 points. Very little attention was paid to weather conditions over the belt, 1t be- ing generally accepted that the growing season was over. Interest centered more
 on ginning than any other feature of the new crop. Private bureau forecasts
 about met general expectations In this
 direction. showing rather full output and indicating total ginning for the fortnight period ending October 31, of 164S bales, as against. 1,316,O00 during the same period last year. This was called traders pointed out that the privats estimate made the ginning for the sea son 7,220000 bales, against S,619,000 a year ago.
 This week much attention will be given ginning because Thursday morning the census bureau will issue its official fig ures whicsh may form the basis of new crop estimates although conservative traders and brokers are of the opoinion that they will not show departures one way or the other, that will materially change the corp outlook
 The spot situation will be closely
 watched because the first sign of any weakening by holders would be the sig nal fo aggressive trading for a fall in
 prices in the contract market. Continued firmness, such as has been shown of late would be of immense advantage to the long side

SEVEN
Prisons in France

From the Leavenworth New Era
 There are but two prisons in Francs, One Is located at St. Lazaire, about sa miles from Paris and the other is al Perigueux, near Marseilles. penal In. stitution is located on Devils Islands but this is used exclusively for political or government prisoners. Huge stock ades and huts house all such prisoners and military guards stand over them con- stantly with fixed bayonets There arc no privileges on Devils Island. no recrea. ton periods, no letter writing.
 A governor presides over each of tha other penal institutions of the republic, whose power over the inmates is auto cratic. He can, if he chooses. condemn any prisoner to death for cause vii odr trial. In case of murder being committed within the walls the governor can make immediate use of the ''guillotine" and other executions at his discretion.
 No good time allowance prevails in the prisons of France Every man mist serve out his sentence In full. One letter month is the extent of the writing. privilege granted to the inmates.
 Prisoners are allowed no visits from the outside, neither can they receive any packages.
 One peculiar feature of the penal sys- lem. however. is, that unless prison- CTS commitment papers specify hard the other hand, sentence to hard labar means exactly what II implies-severe drudgery at no pay.

Market Reuiew
STOCKS AND BONDS

New York. November Hast weeks sever shrinkage of market values not only forced quotations of investment is- sues to new low levels of the year but substituted many new minlmums for those registered in the panic of 1907.
 Unsettlement of investment confidence found it's dearest expression in the per slstent liquidation of shares comprising the so-called Hartman and Hill groups of railroads. St. Paufs also established lowest prices since their advent as divi- dend payers and Reading represented the weak coalers.
 Many conflicting theories were ad- vanced to explain the serious and per- sistent llquidations of securities other than those represented by surface de- Telopments. In the final analysis, how ever, the depreciation was mainly as- cribed to governmental tax require ments.
 Growing realization of this situation contributed largely to depression of in- dustrials, notably United States steel, which was at it's worst after publica- ton of the report for the third quarter observers of the trade conditions also professed to see in this report indub5ta- ble signs of a decline in the industry s activity.
 The demoralized eject of the rrlid-week was made more vulnerable by the set back to the Italian arms and the more discouraging advices from Russia These developments coincided with O new low discount for exchange on Rome and a new minimum for the Russian external bonds in the open market

IRON AND STEEL

New York. November 4.-Some head way is being made in establishing dif- ferential prices for steel products. but as many difficult problems confront tho trade, progress is necessarily slow. The general committee and several subcommittees of the iron and steel institute have meetings daily here since Wednesday and will hold fur- ther session next week. Differential prices on various grades and pig iron have been finally fixed and the scrap price schedule established. As q step toward adjusting prices for tubular goods. the National Tube company has advanced prices of steel pipe sS 8 ton by reducing the discount 4 points. Wire prices await a better understand ing between producers and distribu- tors to insure benefit to the ultimate consumer. but the recent price adjust ment by the American Steel and Wire company was preparatory to estab- fishing full accord among manufac- turers.
 The United States government, di- rectly and indirectly. continues to
 
 structural mills for shipbuilding, ar senals, aviation plants and factories Fabricating shop capacity of the en- tire country will be taken up with this work for the next year. A steady flow of orders of machinery to equip numerous plants holding war muni- tion contracts Is going to builders. The Submarine Boat company has secured priority certificates on S5,000 tons of steel plates and shapes for building 50 merchant boats and other govern ment contractors have applied for priority shipments on over 200,O tons of steel for similar work.
 The New York Shipbuilding company has placed an order for 1900 tons of steel for additional ways and the American International corporation is on the point of distributing orders for 5000 tons of steel for lower founda- tions of large derricks at a govern ment ship plant. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad company has given an order for 1900 tons of shapes for ware houses at Baltimore to replace those recently destroyed by fire.
