Cutting Prices in North Due to Overstocks.
Local Merchants See No Economic Basis for It. Bad
Weather in North One Cause-Can't Replace
Stock With Money From Sale Prices
THAT recent price cutting in northern cities
was anything but patriotic proposition or bona
fde lowering of figures all along the line was the
impression gained by Henry Giddens and Morris
Wolf, prominent Tampa clothing dealers, who have
just returned from New York. Their observation
led them to believe there will be general reduction
in the cost to consumer of staples in any line
cept such as low-grade woods.
"On the other hand, while drops In raw mar
kets might seemingly indicate lower prices, new
labor wage scales in effect May and June will
undoubtedly send prices in some lines still higher.
Bank defation of credits will not affect legit-
mate business" they said.
"'Regarding Wanamakers widely advertised
20 per cent reduction, said Mr. Wolf if you could
realize what fierce weather they have had all spring
and what great quantities of stock accumulated as
the result of unfavorable conditions, it would take
wise to decide that Wanamaker had to
unload and that his and similar much-touted sales
made from motives of mere business
pedency. They can't replace at same prices if the
goods sold at these sales actually marked down
, as advertised continued Mr.. Wolf. The merchant
will be unable to replace them under so per cent
increase.
This means higher prices this fall and, as
matter of fact, most of the marked-down goods are
anything but seasonable There is absolutely no
indication of lower prices staple goods of merit
until other lines begin to break There is no reason
for supposng that clothing will drop to any marked
degree"

EXPECT THIS STATE
 WILL GET MORE COAL
Officials Not Pessimistic About Coal Situation As Far As Next Win-, C
 ter Is Concerned.


 Hartford, July 12.-Despite the alarming report of the special com- mittee appointed by the governors of the New England states, of which Lieut.. Governor Wilson of Bridge port and State Fuel Administrator Thomas Russell of this city were mem bers, that unless immediate steps were taken to get an adequate sup ply of coal to New England, manu- featuring interests would most cer- tainly be affected during the winter months and might have to operate on half time basis, there is a senti- ment here that the next two months will see a great improvement in con- ditions and a steady flow of coal into New England. The report of the com mittee was filed with Governor Hol- comb Saturday.
 Superintendent Carl Mitchell of the Hartford division of the New Haven road reiterates his statement today that conditions on the railroad were improving. He was unwilling to say that the alarming report of the spe- cial committee was uniustified by conditions, however. saying that he knew nothing of conditions at the mines.

FORTY FIGHTERS ARE
 RECKONING TO LABOR
Third Party Men Want to Amalgamate-
 Cheer For Russia.

Chicago. July 12.-Amalgamatioi of the labor party of the United States and the Committee of 4s in a new political movement with a single party name. one platform and one presidential ticket are included in the recommendations submitted to the labor and 4s conventions today.
 Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin remained the most talked of candi- date in the presidential race. The terms of the proposed combine are understood by the party leaders to meet hts views as expressed last week to Ainos Pinchot and George l.. Re- cord leading forty-eighters. who called on him to ask if he would ac- cept the nomination.
 Conference committees appointed yesterday by the labor convention and Saturday by the forty -cighters smoothed out objections to amalga- nation in protracted session last night and adopted a series of recom- mendations to be offered to the two conventions today. Besides urging the combining of forces under a common standard with common name they also proposed appointment of special sub-comittees to draft the machinery under which the combine will work and to prepare A joint platform.
 The recommendations if approved today as the leaders expect. mean that the two conventions will pre- serve their separate identity and con- tinue to function in separate sessions with sub-committees presenting iden- tical measures to each for discussion and action. a.a t. ..f. ee.

Transfer From Health Board Is
 Effective at Once
MAY BE ELECTED CHAIRMAN
Formal Announcement of Change Is Withheld by Mayor Curtis-Newly
 Appointed Member Is Progressive
 City OGiciaI.

Frederick A. Parsons. a recent ap- pointee Of Mayor Orson F. Curtis to the board of health commissioners has been transferred by the mayor to the board of fire commissioners, his appointment to the latter commits sion taking effect at once, although no official confirmation of the change has emanated from Curtis office.
 Commissioner Parsons is a republi- can and during the Quigley admins tration was named a member of the city potato committee. He is connect ed with the H. R. Walker company He was named by Mayor Curtis to fill a vacancy on the health board at the same time that George H. Dyson, who is now also an ex-member of the commission, was picked for that board. Commissioner Parsons took an active interest in his work as a member of the board of health. He was one of the party that inspected the slaughter house at the town farm several weeks ago and was one of the members who favored extensions and the insta llation of new devices at that plant.
 Craftsmanship Problem.
 With mm:ssioner John Tomas zewski, who has expressed himself as not in a receptive mood for the chair manship, Commissioner Parsons is the only man who at present looms up as a candidate for head of the com mission. Chairman Alfred E. Mag nell has rendered his resignation as has Com missioner F. l.. Conlon, while the term of Commissioner Frank Moran has expired. Tn view of these conditions. it is not improbable that tho mayor will ask his new appointees to select Commissioner Parsons for the chairmanship.
 As yet no successor has been naen- toned for the health board commis- sionership and it is expected that the name of ahe appointee will be with held by the mayor until formal an- nouncement of Mir. Parsons appoint ment to the fire board is made.
