New Orleans. Nov. 1S.-While high CT prices were seen around the open ing of the cotton market today, sell ing pressure soon put in appearance and the market dropped off to q. net decline. Real weakness was not dis played until late in the session when. under liquidation, the most active months fell the full limit allowed to :. lecel 200 points down from the high est of the day The close was at the lowest, net decline of 105 to 150 points. Selling toward the close ap- peared to come chiefly from early buyers who were disappointed over the failure of the market to acquire strength.
 The announcement by the War In- dustries oBard that straddle trading would be permitted under it's ruling re- garding selling was received with a feeling of satisfaction but it was with out influence on values.
 Cot tonclosed irregular at q net de- cline of 105 to 1o0 points.

IS to 3 IS cents net higher with December 12S 3-S to l2S l-2 and Jan uary 129 3-4 to 130. Oats finished Is to 14 cents up and provisions varied from unchanged to a rise of 35 cents
 Reports from London that arrange ments were being made for the dis patch of number of German vessels to the United States to convey food stuffs to Germany did d good deal to give fresh impetus to speculative de- mand for corn. Despite aggressive selling which made tho market wavcr at the outset and the buying broaden ed out and was intensified by the wet weather which threatened to rctard the domestice crop movement
 Oats strengthened with corn. Hcdy- ing pressure checked the gains and, besides exports bid were somewhat out of line
 Provisions were lifted by the up- turns ill grain and hogs.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New oYrk, Nov 1S.-Thc cotton mar kct met considerable realizing on an opening advance of F to 30 points to- day. It seemed the scattering short in tercst had been very much reduced on the covering movement of late last week and the demand from that source was less active. Trade buying was not much in evidence, and while there was some scattered selling for southern account and prices soon broke. Decem- Der sold off from 29.00 to 2S2S and January from 2S.25 to 2765 within the first half hour, with active months generally showing net losses of 30 to 45 points. The markets steadied at this level on covering but seemed to be rather nervous and unsettled dur ing the middle of the morning. Liver pool was again changed in miximum stuater rule going back from the fifty to the 800 pounds regulation for the safe of uniformity with American markets. According to an announce ment from the committee ncotton distribution, switching will be permit ted between months in the local mar ket and between New York and New Orleans, but otherwise the original restrictions placed on selling remain ed unchanged

Uncle Sam Puts Ban
On Camp Instructors

New York. Feb. S-Gently but
firmly the United States Government
has intimated to professional boxers
instructing soldiers in the art Of fight
ing that their efforts are to be con-
fined 10 the camps and that for the
wsent they must side-step all temp
h6ons to pick up purses in the ring.
Frank Moran, who has been teach
hg the soldiers at spartanburg, was
matched to fight Fred Fulton at New
Orleans February .. Moran accepted
the engagement gladly. declaring that
IL would train at the camp and not
r6tard In any way the development of
re lads in khaki as boxers. The gov
sfnment cannot see things as Moran
fses.
IN the nrst place Moran might be 50
I1oughtless as to stop a right-hand
mash with the point Of his chin. In
Which case the telegraph wires would
carry the sad story of a teacher OF
bcxing being knocked out, which,
f1pm = government point Of view, is
poor advertising Frank Moran. un-
tERten BY Fred Fulton. Is a much
n1ore popular instructor than Frank
N,raa knocked out BY the big plas-
tel.

BIG PURSE IS SET FOR
+, THE KENTUCKY DERBY

The Kentucky Derby. the most wide
ly popular Of the early American
three-year-oid races these eight or ten
years will be $1,000 race again this
spring. This information is contained
In the announcement just made by
the New Louisville Jockey Club Of
the stage program for the coming
spring meeting at Churchill Downs.
the most popular Of Kentucky race
tracks.
Only one other race OF such value
for horses past two years old VIII be
run In the United States next season
the Preakness. The Preakness will be
the feature of. the Maryland Jockey
Clubs spring program. Like the
Derby, Il will be a race between three
year-oldy and an effort win be made
BY tn. New Louisville Jockey Club to
arrange such a date scheme as will
perd.t horses entered In both races to
fulsil both engagements.
Because Of the demands war Is
making on railroad transportation just
now 1t is not likely that there will be
a great deal Of shipping Of horses to
and fro between Maryland and Ken
lucky this spring. But the great war
will not last forever. and an agree
ment as to dates between the Mary
land and New Louisville Jockey Clubs
for the future would help both races.
The Preakness and the Derby, be II
understood are to be $4,000 races from
this season on.
