COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK. Oct. S.-The cotton
market had a weak opening and suf-
Tered sharp decline of 20 to % points
from yesterdays closing on the dis
turbing influence OF the fresh crisis
which developed over night in the
Turkish war situation. There was,
however. a sharp recovery from this
soon afterward with the market grad
uslly working into a stronger position
and advancing To 10 and 0 points over
yesterdays closing quotations by
early in the afternoon. mainly from
the effects of continuance of yester-
days heavy trade buying led by some
of the local and New England spot
houses. Many traders who had been
selling out longs cotton in the early
decline on the Turkish news were sur
prised at the substantial amount OF
new buying the market deyeloped dur
ing the Course of the forenoon and
which continued in evidence the
greater part of the afternoon. Many
ot them were taking back their cotton
on this late rise while there was fur
ther covering Of shorts. This enabled
the market TO hold the greater part Of
the advance in the late trading. NOT

Conspicuous.

NEW YORK. Oct, 6.-Irregularity.
more marked than during any recent
session, was the salient Characteristic
of today's stock market. After an
early attempt to dislodge holders Of
stock had failed. the professional ele-
ment devoted itself largely to cover
ing operations conducted under cover
Of attacks aimed for the most part at
the Mexican OIL shares. and one or
two other issues which had been
moved up out OF Inc with the rest Of
the market during the weeks ad-
vance. 1t was evident that the Turk
ish situation is wearing out as a
market influence Tor in spite of the
dubious tenor Of the dispatches pub
l1shed in the morning newspapers, and
the palpable attempt which was made
to capitalize this element early in the
day. there was an entire absence of
- the selling which was attributed to
thls cause a week ago.
Better Investment stocks.
Strong evidence that the market Is
not entirely in the hands of the pro-
fessional speculative element was
found again this morning in the de-
mand for the high-priced investment
stocks. National Biscuit made a new
nigh at 206; United Fruit advanced 5
points on a very small turnover;
Woolworth sold at a new high. while
standard OIL of New Jersey eclipsed
all Its previous performances by ad-
Vancing points to 224 from its open
ing, points below the previous days
close. The action OF the latter stock
however was inspired by causes out
side the general market, the an
nouncement of 200 per cent stock
dividend by Standard Oil of New
York resulting in buying of the
shares of the New Jersey company
also. Standard of New York which Is
not listed on the exchange rose to a
new high OF 59s on the outside mar
ket. There were reactions in all the
high-priced stocks about nom, but in

1T FAILS

as Matrimony a Failure?" Some
say it is and some say it amt. But
what do you have to say about 1t!
1t matters not what you have to say
or do, go to the Richmond and
change your mind. You'll have to
change it after seeing the picture
which was shown at the Richmond
last night and which is to be shown
again today.
Just imagine a whole town Of
''hen-pecked" men, who are unwil-
ling slaves to their wives, when
they stumble across the good
news" that they are not married at
all and never have been. What do
they do? Why nothing in the world
but pack up and get for the gay
and festive life. How they enjoy
it for few hours. Then all of a
sudden they find some thing is lack
ing and there is no fun where they
used to imagine it to be. So back
they go trooping to their various
homes in the still of night to ask
their "wives" to marry them. They
promise to do anything if she will
have them back-stop chewing to-
bacco, and go to Wednesday night
prayer meeting if necessary.
The next morning they all go to
the marriage license bureau and
find that they have been married
all the time-just imagine that.
The old folks do not carry the main
role in the play but rather a most
youthful pair of clippers are the
cause Of it all. The general verdict
at the end is that matrimony is a
failure when it is not a failure. But
who knows? This is one of the
greatest laugh producers that has
been to town this season. See it.

Beautiful Beach
Cape

The charge that Fashion seeks her
effects through the odd, the bizarre
or grotesque, can hardly be sustained
when one considers the alluring cos
tunes with which she dots the present
day beach scenes. Here, Fashions
effects are secured through the die
tates of common sense and utility.
And this has become possible not only
since woman's emancipation from
senSeleaS restrictions in dress, but be-
cause of the rapid strides that have
recently been made in the perfection
Of knitted outerwear. The art OF
knitting, which has made deepinroads
into the woven field, has no better or
more attractive models to show than
in its beach garments, its bathing
suits and capes.
Freedom in swimming, combined
with a grace of form, has been made
possible by the new and winning styles
in bathing suits. Then there is beau
ty of line and color, especially color,
in the new beach capes. For those
intervals between dips, when one en-
toys the welcome warmth of the sun
while lounging on the sand, or during
the passage to and from the bathing
house, what could be more alluring
than the colorful capes that are being
worn these days by women who know?
Pretty, protective and graceful the
beach cape Is a notable addition TO
the modern beach scene.
The knitted cape shown in the
above drawing is pleated and entirely
red in color when plests are closed.
Open. the plests display a gorgeous
Irray Of vsri-colored Roman stripes.

Cabinet Officer Not Curbed

League of Texas, asking if Mr..
Weeks spoke for the Administration
as a whole In fact, the President
does not recall having seen the
Web message. There does not seem
to be the slightest likelihood that
the President will reply directly to
the Texan.
The significant suggestion, how
ever, that the President places no
restriction upon the public utteran-
ces of his Cabinet officers may be
taken to mean that Mr.. Weeks in
his prohibition interview was ex-
pressing his own opinions and was
in no sense reflecting an Admins
tration policy.
President Harding himself has al
ways been known as a liberal on
the question Of prohibition, but also
he is very much of a politician in
his dealing with the question. He
has often felt, his friends aver, that
the dryc went a bit too far once
they found themselves in control of
the House and Senate, but having
been raised politically in Ohio, the
home of the Anti-Saloon League,
Mr.. Harding long ago learned els

prohibition records but both are
men who hold to their methods and
