FIRST TO WIN GUILD MEDAL

FthSI ~ WIN ZULU MtUAl
Dale Collier Of Hock Island, ILL.,. has
the honor Of being the first scout To
win the new gold medal just designed
for the Court Of Honor, by Belmore
Brown. the explorer The incident
which won the coveted National Scout
Medal OF Honor for young Collier oc-
cured last January.
The boy had Just started on an err
rand for his mother when he noticed
three men walking on the Ice on the
river, Even aS he saw them he per
ceived to his horror that the ice was
breaking beneath them. He ran about
800 yards and found an old boat.
There were no oars but he snatched
up piece OF board and jumping into
the boat broke his way through 20
where one of the men was sinking
The boy threw him the board and
pulled the boat. fast filling with wa
ter. close 10 the man, got him into II
and back TO shore Then emptylns
out the boat he set out again In search
of the others. This time. not having
even the board TO help him. he beat
his way through the Ice downstream
with his fists by this arduous process
he finally got to where the other two
men were. He managed with much
difficulty to get both into the boat.
which then began to sink from the
weight and having shipped ~ much
water. The men being unconscious.
the boy bailed for dear life with his
hands, screaming for help. Another
boat reached them in time and all
were gotten ashore. Not content wltt
his already heroic achievement young
Collier worked over the unconscious
men trying to induce artificial respira-
ton. He succeeded In the case OF
one man but the other who was Just
recovering from an Illness never re-
gained consciousness. The story Is
one OF the most striking Of the many
noteworthy Instances OF scout pluck
and resourcefulness that have passed
through the hands Of the Court OF
Honor and Scout Collier well deserves
the honor accorded him.

FURTHER DECLINE
 IN COTTON MARKET
 REGISTERED IN LIST
General Staple List Closed Barely Steady at a Decline of Eight to TWenty-one
 Points
By Associated Press

New York. March 12.-There was further decline in the cotton market to- day. The reported failure of a London banking and mercantile firm empha sized unsettled conditions abroad, while there was no improvement in reports from the domestic goods trade. These features caused continued liquidation by early week buyers and the price of May broke to 11.3Sc, or the lowest touched since the rally of last week It later worked up to 11.55c and closed at 11.50c, with the general list closing barely steady at q decline of to Fl points.
 The market opened steady al an-ad- l. vante of , points on March, but gener- ally to 2 points lower. There Was scat = tered southern selling combined with local and Wall street liquida tioi which was probably promoted by reports of an unsettled feeling or irregularily in the stock market. There was cunsd- kerable covering for ovel rhe week end, but before the decline was checked ac- tive months showed net losses of % to % points, with July selling at 1i.s5c. The fact that May sold through 11.J0c, which had been the point of resistance pre- viously during the week, probably en- couraged some of the iocal selling, but | the demand from shorts was sufficient to check the decline dur.ng the middle of the morning and there were rallies of several points from the lowest in the later trading, with July selling up to 12.03c. This improvement was not fully maintained and there seemed 10 be little more southern selling just before the close. Fall River sales for the week were estimated at 60,0a0 pieces and curtailment of production at 10000. Manchester cables reported no Improvement in the demand for goods and said strong protests were beIns
 made against the increased duty on im-
 ports of cotton goods by India

NEW YORK COTTON
New Orleans Cotton By AssOciafed press

New Orleans, March 12-The price of cotton was sent to lower levels today by selling that started on the opening and was in evidence until after midsesson, when realizing by shorts became heavy enough to check the downward move ment and bring about small recoveres. At the lowest the trading months were IS to 22 points under the final prices of yesterday At this level May stood at u.06c. The close showed net losses on the day of b to 16 points, with May at Il 12c
 The bank failure reported at, London was responsible for most of the early selling Covering by shorts started on the initial decline, but it was not in suf- ficent volume to affect prices until well into the session. After the effect of the London news wore off, fresh offerings were induced by telegrams from New England telling of curtailment among the cotton mills of that section, by sales of only 60,00O pieces of print cloths in Fall River this week and by the news of the failure of shirt manufacturing concern at Philadelphia.
 l Much rain over the cotton region was regarded as .unfavorable and likely to delay blowing for the new crop, but it caused comparatively little buying. al though it helped to steady the tone in the late trading.

 Affiliated specialties were carried down in the early reaction, but the ease with which prices in general rallied towards the close confirmed the impression that fhe shorts were in an over-extended position.
