BONUS BILL KEEPS
PLACE ON CALENDAR
in SPITE Of Foes
MEASURE NOT DEAD, THOUGH
ADMINISTRATION HAS VOICED
" OPPOSITION TO ANY PLANS
s.sFoR REIMBURslNa YANks--
DEMOCRATS PLAN FiLlBUSTER.

Washington, July 9,-The soldiers
bonus bin held its place before the
senate yesterday Notwithstanding
President Harding's desire that 1t be
sidetracked until next winter.
Proponents of the measure, led by
Senator McCumber of North Dakota,
acting chairman of the finance com
mittee, declared their determination
TO keep the bill before the senate IN
defiance of the administration 81
wishes.
Administration leaders made no eff
fort to force a showdown. IheyI
spent their time quietly marshallng
their forces for test of strength next
week.
They were confident that they
would be able to muster sufficient
votes to shelye the bill until next SEES
sion, although it was generally agreed
that the roll call would be close.
Senator Underwood. Alabama, Dem
pcratic leader, expressed himself that
half a dozen or more Democratic sen
ators would support the administra-
tons efforts to delay action on the
bonus. Senator Curtis of Kansas, Re-
publican whip, was of opinion that
forty or more Republicans could be
counted upon to vote for the motion
TO recommit the bill.
A new complication made its ap-
pearance, however, when the cloak
room grape vine conveyed the rumor
that the Democrats would flibuster
against the sidetracking motion II It
became apparent that the administra.
ton had rounded up sufficient votes
10 carry it.
Such a filibuster. If conducted on an
extensive scale, not only would keep
the bonus before the senate indefinite
ly but would defeat the administra
tons hopes of a congressional re
cess.
President Harding did not deliver
his special message on the bonus TO
congress yesterday as expected. 1t
was stated that the message will be
held up until early next week.
The senate took recess until Mon
day so that there is little likelihood
of;flirther xfction lntik the message ar
rives. -
Senator Harrison of Mississippi
Democrat, asked Senator McCumber
whether be intended tqss push the
beh,fs bin fin spits OF President Hard
ing's appeal.
| fIfWe are gpiHg right ahead with it,
replied Senator McCumber. ~
Senator McC mhar criticised Secre
tary Mellon for not stating his ohjec.
..tians to the bonus bill when Ii was be.
fore the finance committee weeks ago
Senator McCumber declared con:
eress had not been economical IN
other matters. He charged that hun
dreds of millions Of dollars were being
spent in new fields of governmental
enterprise which had no place ON the
program for the present special SEES
sion.
He called attention to the fact that
more than $2,000.000,000 has been APP,
propriated for railroads since they
were first taken over by the govern
ment, and that latest reports are that
an additional $500,000,000 in the form
of governmental aid will be required
at an early date.

AS a matter OF fact bankers are hui
man, precisely like the rest Of US. In
money matters they are forced to be
cautious because every smooth swim
der In the land Is out to get the better
of them. They are handling other
peoples money and dare not take
chances. This makes them safe coun-
sellers.
II Is the bankers business to furnish
financial counsel TO individuals who
may have enough common sense to APP
peal to him when occasion requires
money to discount his bills; the farm
er who is thinking Of buying new
reaper or a registered bull; profess
sional man or wage Garner looking for
a safe investment for his savings; the
man who is determined TO cut out
some foolishly extravaganza habit and
open a savings account--all these peo-

DUKE FEARS CAIN

Believes Victory for Labor Would
Ruin Owners of Property
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Feb. 14.-The Duke OF
Northumberland, who owns many
thousands of acres of land and several
mansions, predicts hard times ahead
for landlords if ever the labor party
gets a chance to govern the country.
Addressing the other day a meeting
to inaugurate a branch of the Gen.
trail Land Owners association, he
said:
I'm order to deal with the present
financial emergency, the policy of the
leaders of the labor party is to inn
pose very much higher death duties
and supertaxes, to render it impossible
for anybody to keep land at ALL 1t is
a policy of confiscation without COM
pensation.
THE most moderate labor leaders
contemplate a policy which ALTERS
from the soviet government of Russia
only in this respect, that the soviet
government eliminates the possessing
classes by organized massacre, while
the labor leaders in this country
would do it by legalized robbery. We
are informed that the labor party.
having dispossessed the landowners,
will continue to feed and clothe them
if they work, and for this small mercy
suppose we must be thankful"

COTTON MARKET
EXTREMELY QUIET
Fluctuations In All Months Are in Mar
row Limits.

NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-THE cotton
market was extremely quiet today with
fluctuations correspondingly narrow and
irregular. An opening decline was fol-
lowed by rallies with May selling up
from $13.77 to s14.01, or four points net
higher. but the Improvement was not
fully maintained, May closing at 1888,
with the general list quiet and steady at
a net decline of eight to % points.
The market opened steady at a decline
of IA to 26 points in response to weak
Liverpool cables which were again at
tributed to depression OF British trade.
There was some southern selling and
scattering local pressure, but Wall street
was good buyer on the firmer ruling of
exchange rates and reports of a better
tone in the stock market. There may
also have been some buying on the CEN
sus report showing domestic consump-
ton of 966,27O bales for January, COM
pared with 294, 851 for December.
This was not far out of line with
expectations, however, while the figures,
of course, compared bearishly with last
years, and were not an important fac
tor. At the same time offerings from
the south were very light after the first
few minutes while selling otherwise was
held in check by the firmer tone report
ed in other commodities markets, and
prices worked back to about or a shade
above last Fridays closing figures dur
ing the middle of the day. March sold
up from $3.50 to 1887 and July from
$14.s5 to $14.37, but there was some
realizing at these figures and last prices
showed reactions of 10 or II points
from the best. Local brokers said the
action of the market suggested that
scattering accounts has been pretty well
evened up before the holidays and that
traders evidently found no fresh incen-
n tho panarqI Munb of the
trading consisted of switching from
near to late months with some of the
spot houses buying March against sales
of May at from AZ to A points.

is General During Session.
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. A.-Fluctua-
tions in cotton today were within mar
row limits. During the greater part of
the session prices were at small de-
pressions, the lowest levels being reach
expectations of another pool Liverpool
ed soon after the opening, as the result
of a much lower Liverpool market than
due. In the late trading the tendency
was to sag, apparently as the result of
market in the morning. Last prices
were net unchanged to six points down
The opening decline did not stop until
March was at s13.05 and the trading
months were 10 to 81 points under the
close of last week, but after the first SELL
ing furry was over the market ran into
good buying, encouraged by the favor
able items in the census bureau report
on American Mills for January. A re-
action set in and finally carried the list
seven to eight points over last weeks
close, but after March touched 1888 the
buying power of the market appeared to
have been expended and tr1en the trend
was lower, in a moderate way.
The trade paid most attention to the
fact that consumption in this country
during January was 366,270 bales against
294, S51 in December, which was taken
as confirming the accounts of more
mills running that constantly came In
during January.

SHIPYARD MAN
SAYS TANLAC
DOES THE WORK
Jacksonville Man Tells How
Tanlac Restored His Health
After All Else Had
Failed.

Il am so well pleased with what
Tanlao has done for me that I would
not be without It even If it cost ten
times as much as it does," was the
emphatic statement of William West,
well known mechanic at the shipyards,
South Jacksonville.
For year or more I suffered from
indigestion and a very bad form of
stomach trouble. My appetite was
very poor. I was afraid to eat any
thing but the very lightest foods, such
as cereals, milk, and bread, and had
to almost quit eating meat and such
things as cabbage altogether. What
I did eat soured on my stomach,
causing gas which bloated me up so
that it was hard to take a deep breath.
I felt like there would be no more
pleasure in life for me unless could
get relief, and 1 tried everything j
could hear tell of, hut nothing seemed
to help me.
''Tanlac was very highly recon-
mended to me for stomach trouble, so
I decided to try it, and in my case it
has come up to everything good
ever heard about it. / have often seen
the time during the past year when I
would have given nearly everything
1 possessed to be able to enjoy the
hearty meals 1 now eat. And the best
part about it is, do not suffer after
wards. / am never troubled with
shortness of breath and sour stomach
and I feel fine. There is something
about Tanlac that does the work.
Tanlac is sold in Pensacola by the
Crystal Pharmacy.

STOCK MARKET
OPENS UNCHANGED
Banking Position Appears Strengthened
But Trading Remains Dull.

NEW YORK. Feb. 14.-Aside from
general strengthening of the banking
position throughout the country as in
dicated by returns to the federal re-
serve board, the week in the stock mar
lxet opened with no visible change from
recent dull and uncertain conditions.
Most other developments bearing upon
values were very much of the same gen.
eral character as those which have kept
the financial and commodity markets in
their reactionary and narrow groove dur
ing the last two months.
The adverse transportation situation,
for example, was attested by a further
decrease of railway tonnage, there being
more idle freight cars on the principal
roads, according to authoritative state
ments. than at any period in the last
decade Improvement in grain prices
created a more cheerful sentiment at
western and southwestern centers, but
this was again offset or largely neutral
lied by wage reductions, suspended divi-
dends and evidence of diminishing in
vestment demand.
There was little in the stock market
to call for specific comment until the
final hour, when shorts rushed to cover
as buying orders appeared in the usual
favorites. Mexican Petroleum, Baldwin
Locomotive, Studebaker and Atlantic
Gulf at net gains of two to four points
contributed mainly to the strong close.
United States Steel and Reading, the
latter throwing off it's early heaviness,
also were conspicuous. The money mar
ket followed it's usual set course, all
call loans holding at seven percent on
the exchange. British and other lead
ing foreign remittances were appreciably
better excepting Scandinavian rates.
Liberty bonds were irregular. the 312 S
displaying further heaviness. Most other
domestic and fireign issues were with
out definite trend on moderate turn
over. Total sales, par value, S12,650 600.
