Piece Good. Market Dull.

It was a dull day in yesterdays piece
goods market. The holiday had n de-
pressing effect on the trade. Local buy
ers were few, and the season is not yet
far enough advanced for the influx OF
those from out OF town.
Some orders were placed. but they
were not large. The buying that was
done was for fall and winter. all buyers
seeming to hesitate about taking on
spring lines, Information reaching here
from different sections OF the country,
however. is of reassuring character,
and says the present period of quiet is
being utilized In ways that will facilitate
distribution later.

II is believed likely that some Of the re-

service which is giving such satisfactory
service between nearby points and the
local market.
Against this. however, Is advanced the
argument that to restrict this service
would be to throw an added burden on
the railroads. and that such state or

MIDDLEMEN DENY
THEY BOOST PRICES
Say without Them Distribu-
ton Costs Would Be
Much Higher. .

Statements recently made by s. Rot
tenberg. president of the Ess-Arr> Knit
ting Company. Inc. that the profits Of
middlemen are the principal reasons for
high prices in this country are excepted
to by jobbers. who say that while such
assertions might seem true at first
glance they are easily proved to be
fallacies II they are thoroughly investi-
gated.
These jobbers allege that II It were
not for them manufacturers would
have to establish many distributing
centres, and that IL they attempted to
deal directly with the consumer they
would necessarily have to own retail
stores.
All these things would call for a much
larger outlay OF capital and a greater
expenditure of time on the part OF the
manufacturers the jobbers say. and be-
cause Of this. they allege, the manufac-
turers would not be content with nomi-
nal profits but would place prices for
their goods at any figure they desired.

WASHINGTON. June S.-'rhe broad
and scientific manner in which Aus
tralia is meeting tho problem of re-
patriating the men who are fighting
in Europe for the liberties OF the com
monweaith was described in official
dispatches to-day to the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce. Much
interest was aroused by the. dispatches,
rs forcshadowiuE what the United
States must do when the tide of wound
ed and incapacitatcd men begins to
flow westward to this country.
Two principles were enunciated In
the formulation OF the Australian sys-
tenn OF repatriation: FIRST. that the true
purpose OF repatriation is TO secure the
re-cstablishmen of returned soldiers

munity TO the fullest extent that cir

Of it's kind to be established by the
United States government or any Of
its allies anywhere. aviators flying un-
der the Stars and Stripes henceforth
will be classified according to their

man air service, it is said. for FIVE
years.
ltenceforth. no pilot from any of the
local fields will be assigned to active
duty overseas until he has passed the
tests OF the continuance and been class
ifed according 10 his ability to with
stand altitude fatigue. Experience has
taught that many air casualties arc
due to this fatigue. One man will
be so affected that he will faint. An
other will go along with his flying
mechanically and with his mind so
dulied that he cannot plan or execute
an attack on an enemy. Still another
viii become stupid and his nerves
viii not react to the excitement or
battle.
The pilots will be divided into ttree
classes In the first class will he pin .e.i
airmen who are never affected by plti-
tudc fatigue and who can ascend and
night anywhere their planes viii mount.
In the next class will he those whose
mental faculties are dulcd by higi,

DALLAS TENA% Jane G,--T!e long
drought wa!ch has prevailed il West
Texas FOR Two or moro yra.s, causing
little less than disaster to the cattle
raising industry Of Texas has been
partly, II not wholly, broken Three
good. soaking rains fell in that district
within the irst seventeen days of May.
Grass i now coming out. water holes
have been partly filled and a general
spirit of optimism prevails with the
ca;tlcmen. many of whom staked for
tunes on the effort 10 hold out
Ranchmen. who had waited from
month 10 month for the rains shipped
thousands Of head Of cattle out Of this
distric, to other ranges. Many dol
lars were spent by the stockmen on
feed to keep alive those few cattle
that remained on the ranges. They de
clare that had the rain been DELAYED
another six weeks the plains of Texas
would have been practically deserted
OF cattle.
All of Texas west of a line drawn
north and south through San Antonio
constituted the drought district prac-
ticai!y all of which is devoted to the
cattle raising industry. Part of the
district. however, contains some agri
cultural land. devoted mostly TO truck
farming Little cotton or corn is
grown.
The drought began in somo sections
late in the summer of 1914, and almost
since the no.
night on their hands to save the herds
with which the ranches were popu-
lated at that time. In 1915 the situa
ton grew more serious. and the rain
fall was far below normal Early in
1915 large part of the district had
fair rains, but there were many large
areas which had none and others where
the rain fell so rapidly that it did little
good. Throughout the summer of 1915,
ALL through 1917 and we'll into 1919
the conditions grew steadily worse.
Pioneers of West Texas declare i,
vas the worst dry spell that has fallen
over that section in century, Dust
storms which swept the section a few
weeks prior to the rains were tho
worst and most severe experienced in
a generation. In San Angelo the dust
storm was so severe that all outside
work had TO be suspended, and the
sky was SO dark that it was necessary
to use electric lights for indoor, work.
general influx of cattle which had
been shipped out of West Texas is
expected to begin soon. Cattlemen.
however point out that it will require
years TO stock the ranches as before
the drought hit the ranges.
