RESOLUTIONS ON
DEATH OF HON. J. N.
MANSON ARE ADOPTED

Resolutions on the death of Hon. ]
N Manson have been passed by the
reetors of the First National bank on
which Mr.. Manson was serving at the
time of demise, and by the Wausau
Rotary club of which he was mem
Der. The memorial adopted by the Ro-
tary club follows:
John N. Manson, a member and for
mer vice-president of this club, died
on November IL, 1920 He was born
in Wausau on March 4, 1857, and his
life was passed in his native city, de-
voted to the interests of his fellow
citizens who were also, in an unusual
degree, his friends.
Their affection and esteem were
earned by his ability, honesty, frank
and fearless sincerity, faithfulness
cheerfulness and enthusiastic and
unselish public spirit. Because OF
these sterling qualities, he exercised
a great and increasing influence for
good, in the affairs of the city and
county, testified by his membership
for many years in the City Council
and County Board and his election to
the offices of Mayor of Wausau and
chairman of the County Board. He
brought the, same helpfulness and
wise counsel to the aid of his church
and of every organization of the COM
munity with which he was associated
of this club no less.
His influence and example were es-
pecially valuable to the boys of Wau-
sau, by whom he was better known
than any other man in the city and
to whom he was big brother.
The life of such man is successful
in the truest sense and was, beyond
doubt, essentially happy; and the re-
cord of his service to the community,
of which this memorial is an imper-
feet recital, is an imperiShable monu-
ment to tie memory of good citizen
faithful Rotarian.
Dated November %, 1920.

NEW YORK SUGAR.

New York, April ,19.-The local market for raw sugar was less ac- tive today and while there were no sales of Cubas reported, some Por- to Ricos sold to Galveston refin- CT at 2O.06, eff.
 In Cubas, the market closed at Is 1-2c for Cubas cost and freight, equal to 1856 for centrifugal, nomi- nal. Holders were offering Cubas at 19c cost and freight, and it was believed that bids of quarter cent under this level would result in bus mess, although buyers were appar- ently not willing to pay over Is l-2c, the last prices paid.
 In refined one refiner advanced his list 100 points to the basis of 17.50 for fine granulated with quo tations now ranging from 17.OO to 1750 for fine granulated. The de- mand continues active and much in excess of the supply. Some of the refiners are said to be making de- liveries to their regular city and nearby customers, while the country trade is still handicapped by the unsettled labor situation.
 In futures the market was firm and higher early, but there was 2 sharp reaction during the afternoon under heavy realizing and some of the active positions declined the full maximum permitted in any one days trading with closing quotations 50 to 100 points net lower.s

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, April Heavy selling and wide reactions dc wnward featured the trading in cotton today and the market was depressed al most from the opening. For short time in the early trading the mar kct hesitated and rose on private reports of rain in the central and eastern sections of the belt and on the forecast of more showers east of the Mississippi river. Pressure to buy was not prolonged and lit tie later the market turned decided ly easy and the easiness persisted to the close, which was practically at the lowest levels of the day, 6S to 85 points under the final prices of last week.
 Much less rain fell in the belt over Sunday than was expected and this was the foundation for most of the selling.
 Lower prices on the stock market, rumors of financial troubles in Ja- pan, and the threatened textile strike in Lancashire also stimulated sell ing Much of the selling late in the day appeared to come from longs who did not want to carry their cot to mover the holiday here tomorrow due to state elections.

 "He takes me for maid" told my self, chagrined.
 And then l laughted over my own folly. What did it matter what he took me for?
 After a lapse of ten minutes, the tall, bold-faced woman who had wit messed Alice and Tony's romantic ses- sion swept into the hall. She eyed me haughtily.
 "What can I do for you?" Her gaze travelled over my wet trench-coat tc my heavy, rather muddy boots. "What do you want?'
 q want to speak to Mrs Anstruth- CT for moment" replied, boiling inwardly at the insolence of her man ner.
 "Are you her personal maid ?" she next inquired.
 This was too much.
 q am her guest" My tones were quite as insolent as her own. M wish to speak with her at once."
 The bold-faced woman in the deco, lette gown laughed rudely.
 "Sorry for my mistake. The clothes did it, you see! We'll, Alice is bit occupied just now" Here she actually winked, as though wishing to convey something of the situation to me Cant deliver the message"

 "Alice is following in two hours,' '' I said, laconically.
 He released the clutch and we start ed forward. Neither spoke.

 At the same instant there was a loud report, and bullet whizzed across my shoulders like a burning knife!

 The sentimental look on Alice's ba- byish face was too absurd. She was stroking Tony's hair, too, in the most idiotic way. Such misapplied romance was almost funny, if it hadn't been so tragic.
 Were I to burst in upon those two Alice would undoubtedly accuse mo of Why hadn't l enlightened her as to Tony's impudence in following me to my little London flat?

HEAVY OFFERINGS IN COTTON MARKET
 CAUSE 0F DECLINE:

New York, April 19 Reports o1 disturbed financial conditions in Ja- pan and that negotiations for set clement of wage disputes in Manehes- ter had been broken off were con sidered largely responsible for in creased offerings in the cotton mar ket here today. If anything, wealth CT conditions over Sunday were more favorable than expected and an early advance was followed by sharp break in prices. The close was q few points up from the lowest on covering but barely steady at a net decline of 37 to 75 points on all months except June, which was lZ5 points lower.
 The opening was 25 points lower to 13 points higher with near months relatively easy i'll sympathy with Liverpool cables. Private reports of rains in the eastern belt and renew ed trade buying caused an advance right after the call. The weather map showed less rain than expected however, and while the eastern belt forecast for showers was unfavor- able, prices became weak during the afternoon. The easier ruling of May, both here and in New Orleans, was a factor on the decline and was ac- companied by rumors that cotton was coming here from the south for de- livery on contract.
