ORDER READS FOLLOWING RUSE

With the American Army in France.
Sept. 1.-THE American forces IN
France have been instructed to XIII
on the spot anyone urging them to
surrender during battle.
These instructions originated with
a certain division. They proved ef-
fective and now have been adopted
for all American units
The following statement has been
issued:
During an attack by the enemy
against Fismettes on August 2 some
one in an American uniform ran
among our troops shouting:
Further resistance Is useless.
He added that one Of our officers
had advised everybody TO surrender.
These statements were absolutely
incorrect. because further resistance
was not useless and no oficer ad-
Wsed surrender.
The person who spread such
alarm is either an enemy in our uni
form or one OF our own troops who
is disloyal and a traitor. or one of
our troops who became panic strick-
en- and a coward.
whoever IT is should be killed

The cotton committee of the cham
her of commerce beg to make the fol-
lowing preliminary report:
We realize that any constructive
plan for Improvement in the cotton
situation must be based on a thorough
knowledge of existing conditions, and
find these conditions as follows:
ACREAGE; The total acreage this
season in the Salt River and Buckeye
valleys is approximately $4,000 acres.
ESTIMATED YIELD: 1t is con-
servatively estimated that this sea
sons crop of Arizona Pima cotton
grown on this land will run approx
nately 10000 bales.
GINNING CONDITIONS: We find
the ginning capacity of the valley at
present consists of 1872 ginning stands
and that u new stands at Mesa are
expected to be in operation this week,
with 10 new stands at Glendale which,
it is expected, will operate within a
very few days. This makes a total
ginning capacity of 204 stands or suf-
ficient under normal conditions to
maintain an average ginning of $50
bales per day of 24-hour run In gen.
eral, the ginning situation throughout
the valley will be in a very favorable
condition within 80 days, and the ca
pacity of the gins is such that, with
out any increase to the present stands
the entire crop could be ginned, pro
vided it was all picked and harvested
by February 18th.
On November 23rd we were advised
by f. E. Devine, local representative
of the United States bureau of mar
kets, that 1888 bales had been ginnet
on that date of this seasons crop, anC
that the amount of seed cotton il
storage at the gins equaled nearly l..
| 100 bales. We estimate that sufficien
seed cotton is now stored on the
ranches to equal about 5000 bales
| making the estimate of this season!
crop picked to date of nearly 1850
| bales.
FINANCES: We find that nearl,
| 5000 bales have been sold bringing
into the valley over $1,9O0,OOOO0, ant
| that loans made on crops Throughout
the valley have aggregated nearly 81,
| 900, 10000.
COMPETITIVE NDITION
| From the best information that we cal
| obtain the crop of Sea Island cottol
this year, our chief American competi
tor, will not exceed 10000 bales; thu
far they have only sold about half a
much cotton this season as has tn
Salt River valley district; they hav
had practically no market for the las
three weeks and we are informed tina
the money advanced on their crop la
