FEDERAL JUDGE RULES CONTRACTS
 MUST BE SIGNED
Decision on Futures Act Is Considered Important to
 All Cotton Exchanges.

Fort smith July 31.-Gotton fu- lures contracts that do not bear the name or signature of all parties in volvcd are void, Judge Frank A. You mans decided in the United States dis trict court Tuesday morning in the suit of Thorn and McGinnis of New Orleans, cotton brokers, against Fred Browne of this city for $23,2l5 The suit was based on a future cotton deal Tohrn and McGinnis handled for Browne.
 Browne'S defense was that the con- tract he had with the brokers was not in compliance with the United States cotton futures act passed last August and the court sustained his contention on the ground that the contract the Browne's name
 This is said to be the first time since the passage of the act that courts have passed on the point. The decision is of wide importance to trading in cotton futures and if sus- tained by higher courts to whom the plaintiffs announced they would ap- peal means a radical revision in the provisions of contracts as now used cotton men say.
 The nearest decision to Judge You mans ruling on record is decision of Judge Hough, United States judge of New York, who held some time ago that the object of the cotton futures act was to suppress every contract not made in accordance with the futures law.
 Browne dismissed his counter-claim against Thorn and McGinns for $6,- ZIG when Judge Youmans announced his ruling and instructed the jury from the box to return verdict for the de- fendant. The contested point was raised before much evidence had been taken,

Conditions Improving.

London, July 31.-A dispatch to the Times from the headquarters of the Russian Seventh army says the situa- tion is more hopeful. Three divisions of cavalry have taken positions across the whole front of retreat. Deserters, spies and agitators who enjoyed con- plete immunity under the committee system lie dead on the highways. A paper pinned on the corpses reads:
 Here lies traitor to his country"
 Red badges and other symbols which accompanied the demoralization have almost disappeared.

 Dependency is matter of fact, not or law, General Crowder pointed out.
