GIFTS FOR POOR CHILDREN.
Mothers Club Gathers Toys and
Plays Santa Claus to Many Little
Tots Here.

The Mothers Club has taken it upon
Itself to play Santa Claus to number
OF little tots in New Uln, whose Christ
mas would otherwise be rather void Of
happsnes and good cheer The members
have visited local merchants and re-
quested them to donate any broken or
damaged toys which they might have
on hand. The response has been gen
Ierovs. These toys have been repaired
by mechanically inclined husbands of
club members, who have generously
donated their services to the good cause.
Enough toys for about fifteen families
have been secured and repaired. and it
viii no doubt be a great pleasure to see
the fortunate little tots, who will be
made happy Christmas eve through the
thoughtfalness Of the Mothers Club.
The gifts will be distributed to the
poor families in time for Christmas.
It is to be regretted, that New Tim
which is far-famed for its hospitality
to guests within its gates, cannot boast
an organization whose aim it is to look
after the needy poor Manysof our bet
ter-to-do citizens would no doubt gladly
contribute financially and otherwise
toward a movement for alternating the
suffering Of unfortunate families who
are in straig htened circumstances. What
is lacking is. a concerted effort along this
line, and we are glad to note that the
Mothers Club has made the initial step
in the matter This berevolence, as
well as an all-year-ro round charity, should
be made a permanent institution here.
There is no question as to the success
OF movement of this kind.
While New Tim is fortunate IN not
having many destitute families. still
there are number who would greatly
appreciate little kindly assistance
now and then, and especially at Christ
mas time.
The Mothers Club is to be comm ended
Let US hope that their initiative viii
prove q worthy example for others t.
follow. Or better still, let US organize
a charitable association in New Uha.

GOOD WEATHER
IN BELT PUTS
COTTON Down

New York, June 6.-Thc cotton mar
ket showed renewed weakness today
with all deliveries making low ground
for the movement owing to improved
weather reports and less satisfactory
advices from the goods trade. Oc-
tober contracts broker to- 27.79 in the
late trading and closed at that level
with the general list closing barely
steady at net decline of 1913 to 1873
points.
The market opened easy at de-
cline owing to weak Liverpool cables
and the failure of the weather map
to show as much rain as indicated by
private reports late yesterday Many
of yesterdays late buyers were cred
tied with selling on the decline. Trade
buXing checked the decline, and raj
lies followed on covering.
The favorable forecasts and pros
poets for good weather over the week
end served to restrict buying other
wise, however. and the failure of de-
mand to broaden wa sa disappoint-
ment to some of the early buyers.
Private reports were received from
Texas claiming that with a week of
the present weather. the crop there
would be in excellent condition, al
though farmers were now behind with
their work The quieter ruling of the
goods market and reports that sec
ond-hands were still offering supplies
at concessions, helped to unsettle SEN
timent.
There have been further ALLEGATIONS
of tonnage by the shipping board for
June shipment.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, June 6.-The selling
movement in the cotton market gain
ed new Roadway today and prices
were carried off to new low levels for
the week. The undertone was easy
throughout the session and the close
was at the bottom, where the trad
ing months showed net losses OF III
to 1872 points Much better weather
conditions in the belt, were the main
encoura cement for the sellers.
The opening was lower on poor
cables and offerings were sWelled by
the warm and dry weather map. The
forecast of fair weather for practi-
cally the entire cotton region in
creased the pressure and widened the
decline, following partial recovery
around noon due mainly to realizing
by shorts. The appearance Of liquida-
ton late in the day was the signal
for increased offerings for short &C
count and the market became very ac-
tive and weak Spots were lowered

$3.50.

Chicago Grain.


Chicago, June 6.-Reductions OF
holdings to comply with the 800 900
bushels maximum limit in force after
tomorrow did much today to weaken
the corn market Prices closed merry

to 1c. Provisions finished all the
way from Csc decline to like adj
vance. ----s4Az-4 5-.et
Although occasional rallies to re-
place corn, they failed to hold for
any considerable time. 1t was evil
dence that there were more big longs
than shorts. Aside, too, from prep
aratiOns to meet the maximum limit
rule, bears had the advantage owing
to suspicious weather conditions and
to a sharp break in the value of hogs.
Oats gave way with corn and as a
result of the excellent crop outlook.
Exaggerated talk of government
re-selling put a weight on the provi
SiOns market.
