COTTON SLUMP HURTS EGYPT.
Bank Faced with Deacit on mer-
chandise.

LONDON. Nov. 25.--Continued fall In
cotton prices Is helping to paralyze
Egyptian business. says a Cairo des-
patch to the Central News. Banks are
faced with large deficit on merchan-
disc, and the situation has been aggra-
waited by unsettled conditions In the cot
ton industry in America
Indications point to the cotton trade
becoming more stabilized. but critical
stage Is expected TO be reached within
the next two months. the despatch adds.
IL banks give necessary assistance
without taking precipltate action, com
'mercial stability 10 confidently expected
early In the new year.

real. The marshal might know; II
not. then he must choke the truth out
of Lacy. Determined to make the
effort, he muttered a swift word OF
thanks to Sadie and left the room.
From the open doorway Westcott
took careful survey of the street, adj
justing his belt so that the butt of his
revolver was more convenient to the
hand. He had no conception that his
coming interview with Lacy was to be
altogether a pleasant one, and realized
fully the danger confronting him. /.
At that moment the little marshal,
his PREDETERMINED hat cooked over one
eye. emerged from the narrow alley
way between the Red Dog and the ad-
jacent dance hall, and stood there
doubtfully, his gaze wandering up and
down the deserted street. AS West
colt descended the hotel steps the mar
shall saw him, and came forward. His
manner was prompt and businesslike.
"Hello, JIM" he said rather briskly.

The marshal's thin lips smiled GRIM

what l stopped yer for. He said he

Westcott laughed.

swered. "But Bill might be a bit
touchy. Maybe, Dan, 1t might be worth
while for you to hang around. Do as
you please about that"
He turned away and went up the
wooden steps to the door of the Red
Dog. The marshals eyes followed
him solicitously until he disappeared
within; then he slipped back into the
alleyway skirting the side of the build
ing until he reached a window near
the rear.
Westcott closed the door behind him
and took a swift view of the barroom.
There were not many present at that
hour-only few habitual loafers play
ing cards. Westcott recognized most
Of the faces with a slight feeling Of
relief. Neither Enright nor Beaton
were present. and ii was his desire
to meet Lacy alone, away from the in
1uence Of these others. He crossed to
the bar.

"Back there" and the dispenser Of

The fellows manner was civil
enough, yet Westcott's teeth set with a
feeling that he was about to face an
emergency. Yet there was no other
way; he must make Lacy talk. He
walked straight to the door, opened 1t,
stepped into the room beyond, and
turned the key in the lock, dropping 1t
into his pocket. Then he faced about.
He was not alone with Lacy; Enright

sat beside the desk of the other and
was staring at him In startled surprise.
Westcott also had hazy Impression
that there was or had been another
person. The saloon keeper rose to
his feet, angry, and thrown completely
of his guard by Westcott's unexpected
action.
"what the b does this meanr
he demanded hotly. "Why did you
lock the door,"
Naturally, to keep you In here un-

the miner coldly. "Sit down, Lacy |;

Lacy sank back into his chair. en-
deavoring to smile.
"This gentleman Is friend Of mine,"
he explained. whatever you care to
say can be said before him."

also that he is now present so that
you may use him as q witness In case
anything goes wrong. This is once

The lawyers face whitened and his
