DRY GOODS UNCERTAIN.
Speculative Cotton Market
Is Ruling Factor.

NEW YORK, August 9 (SpeciaD.-
The highly speculative cotton market
ruled the dry goods market today.
Prices were uncertain. but extremely
light sales showed a decrease of one
eighth cent in prina cloths and sheet
ings. Some 3s h-tnch sixty-four by
sixties went for 8 rs cents. There was
a moderate movement in sateens.
The speculative features Of the cot
ton market provided an effectual halt
to buying on a large scale. as pur-
chasers are unwilling to take on any
thing save meager quantities until
cotton is more stable.

Opinions may vary even among good Enslishmen as to whether the game of lazeban could ever become popular there. There are enthusiastic sports in that country quite the same as there are here Ind even though their inciinatons run n otaer directions because they have leen developed that way. there's the rcs- aibilty that baseball might in time so appeal to them that they would become la good fans as the people of this coun- ry
 It is the opinion of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. who recently returned to Eng land. that the English might easily be- 1ome baseball enthusiasts He aualines his statement. however, with the asser- iion that it would have to be properly irtroduced. That is no more than ought lo he expected. No sport spreads like Eilddre unless it is favorab!y and thor sushly introduced, and then 1t may re- ruiro time In order to be appreciated to ihe same extent that 1t is in countries where it has long been established.

IN CONNECTICUT lSDItThlEr
 As indicated tn the monthly reports of the Manufacturers association of Con nectlcut. since the month of January. 1929, there has been a gradual increa~ of industrial ability in the manufacfur- ing industries of Confecticut as a whole Comparing conditions in May with Jan uary, there has been an increase Of ii.5 per cent in industrial activity and indi- cations point to a further gradual tn- crease in production in the majority of the manufacturing plants in this gtate.
 Connecticut industries were 26.I per cent. below their normal operations 1uf- ing the month of May. The percentage of industrial activities for the month embracing the number Of workers eni- pioyed, the weekly hours worked. and ths man hours worked per week. was 1s.a per cent. of normal. This was an in- crease from April of 5.5 per cent
 The average weekly oprating sched- ule in the plants covered in the May re port was 4s.T hours or 9s.1 per cent ci normal. while the number employed va ] ITO per cent of normal.
 q Production tn many of Counecticut' manufacturing plants is being retardef because of a shortage of labor. in fact in some sections of the state this Eitua ton Is acute. Common labor is needed and there are now many opportunitei for the worker to enter the factory.

THE OUTLAW RESOLUTION,

When Samuel Gompers goes into a tall spin because of the resolution adopted by the railroad labor and asserts that 1t is impossible for the board to do any such thing as outlaw the railroad shopmen's union, since that is matter which rests entirely with the American Federation of Labor, he gets the impression that the board has done something far in excess of what it has never attempted
 The railroad labor beard has not Sn- dertaken to tell the shopmen that they are outlaws of the federation or that they must disband their union. All .hat 1t has done is to point out the fact that inasmuch as 1t has taken itself outside of the employment of the railroads if has gone beyond the jurisdiction of the board. and having done as 1t has and az President Jewell says it has, the Gctior of the board outlaws them only 50 fa1 as the authority of the board is concern ed,
 What the American Federation of La bor does about the ishopmen Is another matter entirely. MT. Gompers must re alize that what the shopmens have doa' has been to outlaw themselves. Tn board was established by the governmen for the prevention of strikes. It is al agent of the government by which nego tiations between the railroads and tn employees can be carried on after the, have failed to agree among themselves Having carried through such negotiation and having had the shopmen refuse t abide by the results they cannot be ex peeted to retain their rights before th board. They are not obligated to accep the decision and they have not, but i striking they have left the employ Q the roads and that by the boards decis ion denies them the rights they hay heretofore had, and opens those sam rights to those other shoprnen who, go work for the railroads. unless the strif CTS are reinstated by the acceptance ( the boards decision. The board ha terminated it's relations with the striker but not the strikers relations with th federation.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE

Senator Guglielmo Marco1a, who is to be presented with the John Fritz Medal today, has been awarded this highest of all distinctions bestowed by the American engineering profession in recognition of his invention of wireless telegraghy, Senator Marconi began his experiments with H1.reless felegraphy while student at the University of Bologna, The success of his system proved@ rapid. In 1896 he was able to transmit messages over a distance of several miles. and in another three years the first wireless commrlra acation was established between England and France. Two years later messages were sent over a distance of 2,100 mics from Cornwall to Newfoundland Then came the establishment of trans Atlantic wireless service and today the Marconi system has become a commonplace in everyday life, Senator Marconi is hah Italian, half Irish, his mother being an Irish woman. The John Fritz Medal is 1 only one of the many decorations and distinctions he has received in reeogni- l tien of his work
