GRAND JURY REPORT

To Hon. B. H. Pavy. Judge:
The grand jury desires to submit
this it's final report. We desire, first,
to felicitate the people Of our parish
for their apparent respect for the law
Of the land. as is made manifest from
the few affidavits or complaints pre-
scented to us for investigation. When
we consider that a period Of six
months ha selapsed since our last
session, this body has had but few
cases presented to it for examination,
and many of them Of a minor charac-
ter, we feel that the good citizens OF
our parish have reason to congratu-
late themselves in the thought that
respect for the law and obedience 10
the mandates is the more certain roaA
to contentment and prosperity; ana
when we read the daily newspapers
of the wave Of crime now spreading
over the country generally and Visit
ing communities less populous than
ours. we have reason to feel proud OF
the fact that as yet we have escaped
the evil influence of this unhealthy
condition.
We have given full exanlinac-~-- to
all cases coming under our investiga'
finn and have considered each with
out regard to any consideration otner
than a sense of duty, and in present
ing our findings to the court we do so
conscious Of the fact that they are the
result of the mature consideration and
are responsive to the evidence given
before us.
we have examined into the condi-
ton of the public buildings and find
them in as good condition as it is
possible for them to be kept. The
jail especially attracted our attention.
and we desire to congratulate the Of
ficers in charge thereof for their e.
ficiency in the keeping Of this insti
tuition
We desire to commend the exe'cu
tive department of our parochial gov
eminent for the efficient enforcement
OF the laws, and it is our candid opil
ion that to the watchfulness of thii
department of our government can 81

Heavy Liberty Selling.

The trend of yesterdays bond market
was rather uncertain and there were
signs OF heaviness in some quarters.
The market for Liberty issues was called
on to absorb considerable selling which
had accumulated over the week end. and
none OF the more active issues was able
to make further headway. Two issues
made new high records. however. name

COTTON MARKET
CONTINUES DROP
More Southern Hedge Selling
Forces Prices to Lows for
Downward Movement.

Under the influence of more Southern
hedge selling due to constantly increas-
ing receipts, Saturdays reaction con-
tinued yesterday into new low ground
for the downward movement which be-
gan with the Governments last condi-
ton report All options, except the two
nearest ones. dropped under the ID cent
level. the market showing a net loss OF
80 to 81 points at the close, which was
few points above its low.
It was apparent that several OF the
bigger longs, who had clung resolutely
TO their position since the start OF the
decline. were getting uneasy over the
Willingness of some farmers to sell and
the continued absence of spot demand
from aplnners. Although spinning in
forests are not in the market for spots,
1t is generally believed that they are
quietly accommodating futures on all de-
ciines. Although Il is possible that the
market can take care of most or tho
hedge selling without showing weakness,
1t seems improbable that 1t can resist
constant pressure from tired longs.
There was little news over the week
end to influence the course of yester-
days market at its outset. but firmer

The weather. as whole continued
good. AS a result Of the clear weather
over all of the cotton belt picking has
been more rapid than generally expect
ed, as is shown by the heavy movement
to receiving centres. Yesterdays re-
ccipts at ports were close to 10000
bales. Sentiment in some quarters has
crystallized in the idea that until that
heavy movement shall stop there can be
no sustained upward movement.
Generally the market was quiet. Most
larger Wall Street operators are resting
on their oars. and consequently the
market is developing slowly into TWO
sided trading affair. The Wall Street
element continues TO keep a watchfui
eye on exports. With yesterdays total
