Cooperation Preventing
Commercial Failures

Cooperation between commercial at
torneys in all sections of the country
and the National Wholesale Mems Fur
nishing Association in aiding debtors
is keeping. down the number OF
bankruptcies among small merchants,
reports Willard B. Stevens, secretary
Of the wholesalers association.
BY reason of the present readjust-
ment of business conditions many SOL
vent concerns, having assets far In ex-
cess of their liabilities, are neverthe-
less unable to convert their merchan-
disc into cash with which to meet their
maturing obligations, he pointed out.
Under the plan at present being
operated by the association, he con-
tinued, the merchant who lind himself
in difficulties is given an opportunity
to have his business conducted under
the joint trusteeship of the National
Wholesale Mems Furnishing Associa-
ton and local commercial attorney
without cost to either the debtor or the
creditors.
In almost every case, he added, this
trusteeship has resulted in the COM
plete payment of all obligations, and
tie retailer has been enabled to con-
tinue his own business with a clear
record.

Recovery Follows
Early Decline i'm
Cotton Contracts
Selling Pressure Here OH
Adverse News From Tex
tile Centers Checked bv
a Firm Southern Tone

Selling pressure was active at the
opening OF the cotton market yesterday
and prices declined SO to 55 points on
first sales, with the tone weak, but sub
sequent covering operations, together
with support from New rOleans aid
local bulls caused a partial recovery.
The close being firm at points advance
to % decline.
good deal of the early selling,
which was mainly from local sources,
resulted from continued dismal news
from the drygoods markets. Curtail-
rnent, poor business and wage reduc-
sions were noted from nearly all sec
tlons, and traders were inclined to ac
cept this as full offset to the recon-
mendations being made by leaders Of
farm organizations that cotton, wheat
and other farm products be held off
the markets to await higher prices. At
least 100000 pieces represented the cur
tailment at Fall River for the week,
with prospects for an even greater cut
next week, compared with sales of only
10000 pieces. Many reports of reduced
wages were heard, while the action Of
clothing mills in Baltimore in demand
ing increased production or closing
of the mills, and of Philadelphia textile
manufacturers in warning employees
that inefficient workers will be immedi
ately dropped. was considered signifi
cant of the labor situation.
1t is believed, in fact, that under
present conditions in the trade many
textile mills would welcome an excuse
either to reduce working hours or shut
down entirely, as even reduced output,
in the present condition of retail trade
means a piling un of stocks at primary
points. The strength of the New Or
leans market, especially near the close
was explained chiefly on the idea that
there was but little hedging pressure
here and that traders we're inclined

Rock advices said the basis is up 200
points. while the East was still trying
70 buy and Texas was bombarding Ar
hansas with inquiries for strict and
good midding cotton.
The report OF local trade paper, in
dicating decline of 5 points in con-
rition during October, was construed
as bearish. as the deterioration in the
corresponding period last season was

The local market for spot cotton was

Decline i'm Wheat
Offers From Farm
Fails to Aid Price
Easier Toe Prevails in Quiet
Trading, Although Re-
ceipts Drop; Canadian
Holders Selling Freely

There was only quiet trade in the
wheat market yesterday. but after
showing an advance of | to 11sc, the
market eased off and at the close was
cent under the final of Friday. The
receipts at primary points were smaller
and for the week showed losses of more
than a million bushels, compared with
the previous week.
This was thought to reflect the re-
suits of the farmers strike, and as
country offers were moderate the trade
was inclined to be cautious about TAX
ing heavy chances on the short side.
At the same time, receipts in Canada
were again large, Winnipeg reporting
1,107 cars for the day, and there were
evidences that Canadian interests were
selling freely in the Minneapolis mar
het
1t was the consensus Of opinion
among grain merchants thai the farm
ers' holding movement will not p-ove
successful IN the end, as economic con-
ditons are believed to be against any
artificial methods to support values.
The rea! test of the market is believed
to depend upon the extent of export
operations and there is good deal of
difference of opinion regarding the true
supply and demand situation. Some
think that Europe will want all the
wheat we can spare by the end of the
season. while others argue that Can
ada as we'll as the Southern Hemisphere
will get the bulk Of the export business
for some time to come and that finan-
cial conditions abroad will force close
economies on the part Of Furcper1 con-
sumers. The export demand on Satur-
day was very small and it was said
that some Of the leading buyers were
out Of the market.

 According to neighborhood gossip. jealousy is at the bottom of the at tempt made upon the mans life There has long been bitter feeling, so the story runs. between Lara and a rival for the affections of a popular belle who resides in the canyon. and clashes between them have been nar- rowly averted on several occasions. l. is believed the men met outside the girls house last night, and at tempted to settle their differences Laras condition is described as se- rious, and there Is more than a pos sibiiity that he will not recover ac- i cording to the county physician
