Juniors Give Banquet
To Seniors.
n The annual banquet given by the
M. H. S. Juniors to the Senior Class
is always one of the pleasantest
events of the Commencement season,
and this years lovely affair was as
enjoyable as those heretofore. The
Senior Class colors of pink and white
were effectively used in the decora-
tons, pink and white roses being the
flowers used.
The Junior girls all wore crisp
white organizes, while the Seniors
were all in pink taffetas, their fresh
young loneliness adding much to the
beauty of the scene.
The table was in the form of a
hollow square, covers being laid for
seventy. Superintendent C. A. Keith
the High School teachers, and Mr.
Ralph Northcutt were those present
in addition to the classes.
Marie Antoinette baskets of pink
and white roses were placed at inter-
walls, with candelabra holding white
caidles placed between. The place
cards were painted in pretty baskets
filled with flowers, and on each one
was written clever toast. The de-
licious five-course dinner was served

CHICAGO. June 20.-Grain prices
averaged lower. and while the
threshing reports from Kansas In
diana and Missouri were disappoint-
ing and it remains dry in the North
west over a large area, the marked
weakness in stocks and cotton led
to considerable pressure and a low
er range A sharp rally came at
one time. but as soon as the buy
ing ceased prices settled back quick
ly. Heavy local rains occurred in
parts of Oklahoma and will delay
harvest, but for the moment the
crop news is being ignored. Cash
wheat was heavy, with premiums off
to cents; Kansas City received
several cars of new wheat today,
while at Hutchinson. Kans., aggre-
gate arrivals were 16S cars. the
largest on record. Forecast was
for generally fair weather. with
little change in temperature. Local
sentiment has become decidedly
bearish and there has been a lack
of aggressive support as we'll as
a good export demand. The con-
tinued absence of the latter at
tracts some attention.
Corn and oats were affected by
the action of wheat and declined
sharply after a rather firm OPEN
ing. Country offerings were not
large and some corn was sold to
the seaboard. but sentiment is less
bullish than of late, despite the dry
weather over a good part of the

crop prospects for oats.

Japan Buys Pig Iron
OF British Shelters

The Japanese government has
purchased 10000 tons of Swedish
pig iron from smelters at Shelf
field. England.
This information was conveyed
in unofficial advices received in
government quarters yesterday.
Coming on the heels of reports
that Japan is rushing naval con-
truction and bids fair to outstrip
the United States in three years,
1t was regarded as especially sig
nificant.
Swedish pig iron Is used almost
exclusively. in the manufacture
of armament, and this is prac-
tically the only use to which
Japan could put it, IL was pointed
out.
Besides the purchase Of 10000
tons, Japan is in the market for
a large additional amount and
for hydraulic presses OF $4,000
tons capacity. according to ad-
vices. Such presses are indis-
pensable in the manufacture of
armament.

COTTON MARKETS
STILL UNSETTLED
Heavy General Liquidation and
Hedge Selling Cause Lower
Averages.

NEW YORK, June 20.-The fur
ther unsettled condition Of the stock
market together with Liverpool
bad break in both spots and futures
on the resumption of business there
this morning on the continuance OF
the British coal miners strike al
ready in effect since April l. caused
a very weak market for cotton con-
tracts today. There was heavy gen.
eral liquidation from the opening
with the bulk of it again coming
from the local and Wall Street bulls
of the last several months and also
considerable in the way Of hedge
selling orders from the South
against unsettled spot markets there.
Contract prices here started about
90 points lower than Saturdays
prices and by noon had gone off be-
tween rs and so points from those
quotations. July broke to NlO.45
cents per pound again; lila for
October of the new crop. while De-
cember sold at 11.7s and next jan
uary's deliveries at 11.90. These are
all new low records. considerably be-
low the previous low levels of March
2. They bring the market down to
the lowest range of prices since early
in 1915 on the recovery then from
the COLLAPSE which had followed the
outbreak of the world war.
There was good deal of stop-
order selling in the liquidation of
speculative holdings of contracts on
this forenoon's sharp break. with
several of the large Wall Street and
Western wire houses handling orders
in blocks of 1900 and 5000 bale
lots. Prices for spot cotton on most
OF the Southern spot markets went
OF today on an average of about
30 points or L cent per pound, with
present values there also making
new low records from these reached
early last March. This caused the
hedge selling of futures on the New
Orleans and New York markets, so
prominent factor in the local and
Wall Street liquidation making the
days low prices. There was gen.
eral disappointment here over the
failure of anything to be said in the
cables from Manchester or Liverpool
with regard to forcing an end to the
British coal miners strike. Local
and Wall Street bulls were evident
~ discouraged by this from the way
they were liquidating the balance
of their contracts which had not
been already sold out Saturday and
Friday.
The principal buying support the
market received came from scatter
ing spot houses. covering of shorts
and execution of open buying orders
in the hands of brokers on the scale
down.
The Liverpool market closed weak,
practically at the bottom. at a net
decline of 4S English points for the
day on June and July contracts
against a on October to Al and 80
on the balance of the list as against
the decline of only to s points due
to have met our closing prices of
Saturday. Spot cotton there was in
moor demand even after a break of

spot sales only 5000 bales on this
important decline against import
arrivals of $4,000 bales. including

RAIL LABOR BOARD
TO SETTLE OPEN
SHOP FIGHT TODAY
Pullman Company Trou-
bles With Unions Due
For Settlement.
CURBS w Al GE CUTS
Only IL Per Cent Slash In
tended, Despite Many
Pleas. s-.
CURBS w AG E CUTS

CHICAGO. June 2o.-A decision Of
far-reachins importance in the cap
ital-labor struggle on the closed
shop question will be handed down
by the Railroad Labor Board to-
morrow. when announcement will be
made of the findings in the contro-
versy between the unions and the
Pullman Car Company.
This decision will setIle whether
a company union-one formed at the
instigation Of a company itself-is
the proper representative Of the en-
ployes, or whether a craft union.
affiliated with ganized labor, is
the mouthpiece OF the men.
Fought by Unions.
The company union.'' which
many large Industries. including the
big packers, are trying to form in
opposition to the American Fedora
ton OF Labor unions, is being bit
terly fought by the union leaders.
The Pullman Car Company is the
only railroad Industrial with such
a union. This company is also high
ly unionized by the American Fed
Grafton of Labor railroad depart
ment organizations.
So the decision in this case will
determine either "a that the COM
pany union is the real representa-
tive of the men and the open shop
is the best arrangement, or (2) that
the organized labor union is the
spokesman for employees and the
closed shop the proper condition.
The controversy started when the
Pullman Company, employing about
5000 men, insisted that its employe.
were not properly represented be-
fore the board on wage ana working
rules controversies. The majority
Of its employees, it stated. were mem
bers OF the company democracy
and not subject to the leadership
of the shop craft union leaders.
Hinges on Majority.
The decision in this case will
consider where the majority Of en-
ployes line up in affiliation. IL was
learned. II the majority of the en-
ployes belong TO the shop crafts. all
the employees will be governed by
its leaders.
A decision In favor Of the Pullman
company would be the biggest open
shop victory in years.
1t can be stated that when the
board hands down its big wage de-
cision early next week that il will
not provide for anything in excess
of the s40O. 100000 slash-approxi-
mately 1870 of present wages-an-
nounced June l. II will merely add
other railroads to the list granted
cuts on June l. The reductions viii!
take effect July /. but the announce
ment of the total list Of railroads
affected will De made before that
date.
Scale Nearly Ready.
Our addendum 10 the June de-
cision is about ready" board MEM
ber said. 1T will not add any cuts
in wages to the approximate IL per
cent already announced. 1t will add
railroads to the list affected. and
classes of employees not included in
announcements Of June 1 to the
railroads already granted cuts"
This settles definitely that the
carriers have lost the fight waged
since June to have the board in
crease it's announced IL per cent
cut to 20 per cent. and thus wipe
out the entire $500, 100000 increase
granted last year.
