Letter From Headquarters

Frederick w. Standard, chairman of
supplies of The American Red Cross,
Mountain Division, writes DR.. King
regarding expense of local hospital:
November IS. 1918
DR.. R. w. King,
Red Cross Emergency Physician,
Dolores, Colorado.
Dear Sir:
We received telegram from Mrs.
Ditchfeld, chairman of the Dolores
Branch, American Red Cross. reading:
"How are the expenses of A R C
hospital that DR.. King started here to
be paid" And we replied as per copy
herewith
We have not had any report from
you, as l recall. in connection with
your opening the hospital and SO do
not know what has been done. We,
therefore, do not feel like taking a
definite position at this time. We
assume that the emergency is being
met; that is the thing that most inter
ests us at this time. The matter of
expenses can be arranged for in some
way later.
We assume, of course, that you are
working in complete cooperation and
accord with the Dolores Branch of the
Red Cross and will be very glad to
have you write us regarding the stu
alton.
Very truly yours,
FREDERICK W. STANDARD
Assistant Manager.

For the pas. three years at about
this time, we have made an effort to

roads. maintain schools, etc as it is of
those who faithfully come in and pay
up year after year without extra
notices. You derive the same benefit
as they. In fact, they are paying for
YOUR privileges in the use of public
improvements.
A collector has been appointed who
will call on those who do not respond
to this request, but we hope that it
will not be necessary to put on this ex-
ira expense and enforce the extreme
provisions of the law in this connection.
The collector will start out about De-
.cember or as soon as influenza condi-
tions will permit after that date.
If you have not shipped or marketed,
Just call up so that we will know your
intentions. as we do not wish to be un-
fair. But, we shall expect you to
make good. and help to place our
county along side of those which rank
the highest in percentage of personal
property taxes paid.
Yours respectfully,

REPORT HEAVY
 RAINS CAUSED
 SHARP ADVANCE,

/ By Associated Press. New York, Sept. 4--Indications that rather heavy rains reported in the South were to be followed by ] lower temperatures with light frost ill both eastern and western sections of the belt tonight, led to quite a sharp advance in the cotton market during today's early trading, but the market later weakened under re- newed liquidation. which probably re- flected continued nervousness over price fixing.
 a net advance of 2S to 40 points.
 1t seemed that the selling inspired by the midweek rumors that prices were likely to be fixed at tonsidcra- blN lower levels, had run it's course before tho close last night and that accumulated. Covering was stinl,- lated also by the failure of southern hedge selling to assume greater vol ume.
 A private crop report issued early in the day placed the mid-mOnth con- ditiOn at 55.5 against 5G toward the the end of June, but stated that southern correspondents saw little prospect of crop in excess of H. 500,0O0 bales
 The early advanced was partly at tributed to belief that if prices should be fixed for cotton they were not likely to be under the present basis of goods values. but the un- favorable weather was considered the main factor.
 Cotton closed steady.

 Chicago, Sept. 20.--All trading in corn for delivery in store, or by grade alone, ill Chicago in, September, was ordered stopped today by the directors of the Board of Trade. At the same time all transactions ill indemnities executed on Sept. 19, in September corn were declared null and void and the sellers were ordered to refund to the buyers the purchase price of the indemnities.
 The reason given was the embargo placed yesterday which restricted to a great extent shipments of grain to the Chicago market and the fact that practically all the storage space suitable for receiving grain on Sep tember contracts is now filled with grain largely held for the govern ment.

COLD WEATHER
 AND FROST GIVE
 COTTON UP TURN
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
 New Orleans, La., Sept 2O.-Wide advances were scored by cotton to- day on buying stimulated by rains in the belt and the forecast of colder weather and frost.
 At the highest trading mouths were three-quarters of cent a pound up.
 Price fixing talk served to restrict business to some extent and in the afternoon the inclination was to re- act from the advance so that the close was at net gain of only g to 43 points. A less pessimistic view of price fixing was taken because of the assurance by wire from many southern congressmen that opposi- ton to it had not ceased and would not cease.
 Tho uncertainty over the situation, however, made for small trading in the afternoon session.
 Cotton closed steady at an advance of A to 43 points.
