Won HERTLING MAY NOT BE
NEW GERMAN CHANCELLOR
as We'll; Count Won PosadowslSy-
Wchner Considered.

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 1.-The po-
litical crisis in Germany, so far as is
shown by any word which has reached
here from Berlin, Is still open and
Count Won Hertllng has not decided
whether to accept the chancellorship
His decision apparently is dependent
on the settlement of certain diff
culties connected with the office OF
presidetn of the Prussian ministry
According to the Catholic organ, Ger
mania, which presumably is in the
counts confidence, he made II a con-
dition OF his acceptance that the
chance llorship and the head of the
Prussian ministry should not be sep
srated.
Some Berlin newspapers are so GER
tain that Won Hertling will not accept
that they are busying themselves with
the next step in the crisis. The Tage-
blatt mentions the venerable Count
Won Posadowsky- Wehner, former min
ister Of tho interior and now an in
dependent member OF the reichstag.
for the chancellorship. Aside from his
prestige as q former minister he APP
parently has little to recommend him.
His career in the reichstag has been
without influence. A speech which he
delivered recently showed him to be
without positive ideas in regard to
foreign or domestic questions.

COTTON NERVOUS; GOES
UP AS SESSION CLOSES
Wall Street and Italian Crisis
Principal Factors of
Depression.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The cotton
market was nervous and unsettled to-
day and fluctuations irregular. After
selling at 26.4Sc early, January ral-
lied to 26.24c, but broke to'26.39c and
closed at 26.45c, with the general list
closing steady az a net decline of to
20 points on all months except No
Nember, which was 13 points higher.
The market opened steady at an ad-
vance OF 8 points on December, but
generally to g points lower, and
sold 10 to 21 points below last nights
closing figures right after the call.
There seemed to be a good many over
night selling orders around the ring,
brought al by the weakness OF late
yesterday. but Liverpool was relatively
firm. houses with Liverpool and do
mestic trade connections were buyers
and the market soon turned steadier
December rallied from z7.15c to
27.35c and March from 26.15c to
26.12c, with active months generally
selling about to 10 points net higher
This bulge met increased offerings,
however, which seemed to include
some southern selling under which tho
market weakened before the end of
the morning. Weakness in the stock
market and uncertainty as to the Ital-
ian situation appeared to unsettle SEN
timent and to be largely responsible
for Wall street and local pressure. The
close was a shade up from the lowest
on covering.

Mr.. ultimate Consumer" walked
UP like man yesterday and paid his
war tax without flinching. He smil-
ingly handed in his pennies at the
theaters, at the telegraph offices. al
railway ticket windows and other
places where the war revenue act
faced him.
At closing time last night II was
estimated that the theaters had col
lected $40 war tax for the first day
There was very little confusion Incl
dent to the tax going into effect. Many
persons forgot their pennies when
they appeared at the theater box Of
flee windows. but the cashiers had
been provided with an ample supply
The railroad and telegraph offices
had likewise prepared to accommo-
date their patrons and the tax was
collected without inconvenience. No
complaint was made and the con-
sumers "coughed up" without remon-

A few thot they were paying some

stated that the government never con-
templated anything else except that
the people generally should pay the

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, No. 1.-The first battalions
Of Americans in the trenches have

is considered one Of the periods when
the enemy by shelling the approaches
to the positions may inflict heavy
damage. was accomplished success

now is permitted to mention for the
first time that the casualties were
negligible. In fact, more men are suf-
fering with trench feet" than with
wounds.
From a military standpoint the ex-
perience gained by the Americans is
considered of a very high value in the
training Of contingents which are yet
to arrive on French soil. 1t was a
tired, dirty, wet, mud cakedN body Of
men that returned to billets. The
men had only two clear days while in
the trenches. They were mud from
their hats to their shoes. Before any
thing else. they required a bath, first
with gasoline and then water.
Today the sun was shining brightly
and the returned soldiers spent most
OF the time summing themselves and
their belongings. Some of the fields
in this section of France are covered
with blankets, parts of uniforms and
equipment. Clouds Of red dust arose
in these places when later the owners
started to brush. Tonight the returned
battalions are clean and ready to 20
