Cotton and Grain Exchange
New York Futures.
New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, February 5.-Fluctuations in cotton today carried the price both above and below the level of yesterdays close. but last prices showed net changes of only to ' points. the active months scoring B decline of that extent. Early buyers turned sellers to secure profits late in the session and some short selling was stimulated by the rumor that Fall River mills were contemplating closing down.
 Around the opening prices were to 21 points up, but soon after they were 10 to Il points under the close of yesterday.
 The initial advance was due to con- tinued rains in the belt.
 As the market softened, new buying came in based on reports from the interior that spot buyers were quietly absorb ing everything offered and toward noon prices were 2S to 34 points over the final prices. of yesterday. In the afternoon erough selling developed to erase this gain.
 The investigation of futures trading asked for at the hands of Congress was responsible for some of the early selling, but the market is confronted with so many problems just now that this new legislative turn did not have the effect it might under other circumstances.

Chicago, February 5--Heavy selling of corn resulted today from shrinkage of demand from feeders and owing to en- larged rural offerings The market clos ed unsettled. 2A4S7s net lower with May. $l.12%dl.14 and July sl.1od1. 107s.

 Sentiment regarding corn became all most unanimously bearish and there were but few traders who showed dis position to accumulate holdings even at the sharp declines which were registered.
 As feeding demand has of late been the mainstay of the bulls. evidence that buying had uEmistakably waned at cen ters where feeders had recently been most importunate, led to general pres sure, especially from commission houses. Signs pointed also to a heavier move ment of the crop than has been the rule Of late and weather conditions for such were said to be ideal. On the other hand rallies due to a shipping lookout at Buesnos Aires and to gossip that sea- board exporters were buying here did not attain much force
 Oats receded with corn. Big stocks and the slownes of export call gave an advantage to the bears.
 Provisions reflected the weakness of grain.

New York, February 5.-Early advances were followed by rather a sharp break ih the cotton market late today, with March selling of from 23.e3c to 23.20c. The close was at approximately the lowest of the day, although the tone was steady, net unchanged to $ points lower. Old crop deliveries showed the greatest loseses with the more active positions IS to 24 points under last nights closing.
 The market opened barely steady at a decline of 26 points to an advance of 10 points under overnight selling orders, which had evidently been brought in by the weakness of yesterday. New Orleans was an active seller, but otherwise there the market soon firmed up on covering, local buying and moderate demand from trade sources
 Reports that there were more operatives at work in the Lawrence mills and talk O. an increasing export demand prompted the rally which carried May contracts up from H.96c to 2.4ac, and July from q .30c to Elsie during the middle of the day, or about 20 to 23 points net higher. Trading then became very quiet, suggesting that the immediate demand had been pretty well supplied, and the market weakened. late in the afternoon under increased southern selling.
 There was also selling believed to be for western account, which some thought might possibly be connected with the weakness in the grain market, and prices sold off rapidly with most of the active months making new low ground for the day during the last few minutes. May closed at 22.02c and July at 21.9oc, with active months generally showing reac- tons of 8 to 46 points from the best
 Nervousness over labor conditions in Great Britain were considered partly re- sponsible for the opening decline, al- though Liverpool made fair showing and houses with English connections were moderate buyers of May and July.

mated move might have been made
TO remove Commissioner Stine from
office during his absence as Captain
in the army and commander of a Ma
tional Guard unit. Friends of Com
missioner Stine openly expressed
their resentment of Wells talk and
political palaver. During the entire
time Captain Slime was in the army
he accepted ma salary as County Com
missioner.
Mr.. Unger. the township assessor
who was called before the commits
sioners today, demanded that Wells
prove some of the statements which
he said Mr.. Cnger had made to him.
Wells only replied that the state
ments were made by Mr. Unger to
him. and Mr.. Unger reminded Wells
that because of his frequent inter-
ruptions he had not been able to COM
pletestatements and the wrong i'm
preston resulted.
When the meetig first started
Wells said he understood it was to
be session behind closed doors, but
the other commissioners opposed the
move and Wells was forced to say
that "of course 1 haven't any OBJ
tections If the entire county is invit-
ed to be present, but I thought the
commissioners and the assessors
were to go over the valuations"
When the investigation of alleged
unfair assessments was over Com
missioners Slime and Cumbler both
said there was no evidence before
them to warrant holding open the
assessment box any longer. or which
would indicate that the valuations as
fixed by Mr.. Unger were not equit-
able. y motion was first passed that
the Hetricll farm valuation should
not be changed, and then the commis-
sioners passed the resolution approv-
ing all the other returns of assess
ments as made by Mr.. Unger.

Colonial Club Offers Its
Quarters to Country Club
After Serious Fire Loss

There is very general regret over
the destruction of the Harrisburg
Country Club near Fort Hunter by a
midnight fire on Friday. IT is be-
lieved, however. by those interested,
in the club that steps will be at once
taken to restore the building and
grounds so that there may be little
time lost in preparing for the sum
mer recreations.
1t is said the financial loss will not
be as heavy as was anticipated ow-
ing to the insurance and salvage from
the burned building.
Arthur III. Bailey. president of the
Colonial Country Club called on Il.
s. Herman, president of the Harris
burg Club and rendered the facili-
ties and privileges OF the club house
and grounds on the Iinglestown
road to the membership of the burned
out building. Mr.. Herman expressed
appreciation OF the courtesy of the
Colonial Club and there IS no doubt
the invitation will be accepted by the
Fort Hunter club members.
While no definite statement has
been made as to the cause of the fire
1t is believed to have resulted from
defective electric wiring. Consider
able furniture was saved, but many
of the members lost their golf out
fits and personal property in the
lockers.

You can get trucks now said
the Detroiter. anywhere from $500

they will all, eventually, be equipped
with broad tires for the purpose of
helping to maintain roads. Many do
not realize that it is the speedy.
