Weekly Cotton Review
By Assaeiaf.d Prn.s

BY AtSoctateu Press
 New Orleans. February 15.--In the trad ing in cotton last week the low prices were made In the early sessions, while the high prices came on the close The low prices were due mainly to unfavor- able impression made by the railroad labor trouble, while the high prices re- suited from buying stimulated by the recoveries in sterling exchange covering of an extensive short interest and con- tinued favorable mill account, Liverpool cabling that Manchester continued to do a huge business at full prices, while reports concerning domestic mills were very favorable, Much buying followed the census bureau report showing Ameri- can consumption during January of 591 FPS bales, against 511, ,5S5 during Decem her, and 556'761 during January a year ago, and placing active spindles turning Jan- uary at the record breaking total Of 34,7S9,071.
 At the highest of the week the trading months were 113 to 14s points over the close of the preceding week and last prices were at net gains of 10S to ISS points. March closed at S723 against 80 9 as the closin gprice on middling spots Middling gained in the net results of the week 50 points.
 This week the market will be forced to continue to watch outside conditions, the raiiroad lapor situation being Of special importance
 Turns in the. rate of foreign exchange are likely to have quick effect, although the statement by Secretary Houston this last week that foreign problems would probably be satisfactorily solved did much to bring about an easier feeling in this direction.
 No great amount of attention was paid to conditions in the interior, but the time is now at hand when work of preparing for the new crop should be under way and anything that tends to delay it is bound to be considered to some extent.
 Mill news will be eagerly looked for. particularly reports from England that would tend to discredit recent statements regarding the cutting of cotton imports in two by that country. Considerable prominence was given Liverpool statis- tics this last week, showing imports or American cotton by that port of III, 900

Weekly Financial Review
By Associated Press

New York, February Expressed in terms of market values last week on the stock exchange was duplicate of the preceding period in that prices were again unsettled by progressive selling movements. At their worst a number of active issues fell 10 to nearly 40 points in the four full sessions and an extreme of 25 to 120 points from the highest quotations of the early part of January.
 Recoveries which in many cases can ceiled & large part of the weeks re- action occurred toward the end the rally being concurrent with easier rates for demand loans and further strengthening of foreign exchange.
 Under the surface, however it seemed that many of the forces which began to operate in the first weeks of the new year were still effective off cial and other advices from leading reserve sections testified to further credit restrictions and reduction of prices in the commercial markets
 The rebound in foreign exchange amounting to about 27 cents in the pound sterling from the low record of the past fortnight was attributed more to cessation of offerings than to any actual improvement in the interna- tionaf credit situation. Local money conditions were better only so far as they concerned call loans. Rates for time funds, even the shorter dates, yielded little of their stringeny and ac- ceptances and merchants bills showed few signs of relaxing.
 Aside from further proof of ex- traordinary activity in several import ant lines of inquiry, notably steel and Iron. discussion in authoritative quar- ters dealt chiefly with ways and means of readjusting latest conditions in international trade.

ing of demands which some declared
 would be unwise at this time.
 B. M. Jewell, acting president of the railway department, American Federation l of Labor, today expressed satisfaction
 with the progress made thus far. He said he believed the unions membership ] would acquiesce in the request or tnelr representatives here to await develop ments. Local leaders have been assured i that they would be made acquainted with all details of the negotiations and have been urged to await the receipt Of the \ Hcorrespondence between the union off lficials. Director General Hines and the President
 Reference was made today to the state ment of the union heads, supplementing their reply to MT Wilson, in that it had set forth an indication of what the unions would accept minimum This statement, taken with the reply to the President. was interpreted by leaders, themselves, as portending the exertion of union power more than has hitherto been known in it's demands for final and definite solution of the problems arising from the wage claims
 PENSION DEMANDED
 Officials stressed the importance of the section of the reply to the President. declaring that whatever decision is reached must include a. revision of the present relationship of railroad labor wages to that of other industries. With out that change-which means an in- crease in pay they said-rairoad labor will not be entirely satisfied 1t was de- clared
 Various clements in the railroad unions tried throughout the war to bring this angle of their claims to capitalization, but the leaders said they stayed their demands because i've wanted to keep ourselves out of the class of profiteers: we wanted to be free to say we did not take advantage of our government" l Leaders now were prepared to combine in a campaign against living costs. to demand higher wages and to request the establishment of . policy which win place all labor on an equal plane with other trades in order to bring industrial ] peace"
 All union officials who are to attend | the general conference here have been | asked 10 give study to the principles out lined in the letter to the President with | the thought that if additions should be made, they would be prepared to submit | them without delay. The leaders hope to make the general discussion brief and lay their case before the country before he roads are restored to their owners March L

To bear in silence the barbed shaft
of bitter lies and contumclies of dis
gruntled enemies and newspaper
without honor is thing that tries the
patience of the strongest men, and
more but the born leaders and men of
emf character and courage can hold
their heads erect and smile in the face
of the Storm. Congressman Sam r.
Sells, recently defeated by Lieutenant
Carroll Reece, is such courageous
man of character.
Despite the reprehensible tactics
set in motion by his enemies to COM
pass his downfall, and in spite of a
combination Of ironios since the Au
gust primaries, Sam R. Sells has re-
tanned his prestige in East Tennessee,
and not only that, but he has extend
de it over the state, and broad step
farther than that, he becomes identi-
fed with the national republican or
ganization, and during the approach
ing campaign will work for the uccess
of the Republican ticket in Tennessee.
In this broader field Mr.. Sells will
have an opportunity to show his real
ability. Hitherto his activity has been
more or less localized so far as his
former constituency knew, though
until he was defeated they never re-
ally appreciated what a dynamic
force he was in congress and how well
he stood with his colleagues. Since
the August primary the people of the
| first congressional district have been
wondering if there hadn't been a
grave mistake made. And there would
have been had not Mr.. Sells consent
ed to lend his brain and energy for
the success of the party in Tennessee.
| AS it turns out, Mr.. Sells is in posi-
ton to render better service to his
party than ever before in his official
career.
Mr.. Sells is perfectly sincere when
he says that he will support the Re-
publican ticket in Tennessee. He will
support his late opponent, Lieutenant
Reece, and the Hon. ALI Taylor, can
didate for governor. When he with.
drew his contest against Lieutenant
Reece, he declared that he was going
to support him, and that means ex.
actly that. There is nothing little
about Sam R. Sells. His bitterest en-.
emies know that full well.

should prompt the former opponents

PROMISE OF AUTUMN SPORT.

The baseball season has ended with
the local team having much to its
credit, in viewof the fact that it was
our first season of professional base
ball. But the red-blooded fans who
so Loyalty supported the team will be
able to enjoy some new thrills in
watching the hard-fought football
battles that will be staged here. The
boys of the high school, who last year,
without sufficient coaching, made
themselves known all over East Ten
nessee, have organized q new team,
which promises to be the best ever
seen here. They are husky, nervy
bunch, and at their first practice yes
terday, showed up snappy and fear
less. Because of the work of last
years team, offers Of games have
been made by such schools as Nash
villehigh high and Knoxville high. To
secure the necessary equipment fo1
the team, the athletic association, OF
which practically every boy and CIR
is ar enthusiastic member, has decid.
ed to offer season tickets to the pub.
lie. The price of the tickets has beer
put at three dollars, which is about
one third the admission to the individ
ual gains would be. These ticket:
will cover the athletic stunts of thu
school year. Two games each are
now being arranged with Newport
Bristol (Tenn.) and Tusculum Prep
MorristoWn, Knoxville Central high
Nashville Central high, Athens ant
Charleston. The team deserves the
hearty support of the town, and will
| igve value received.
