HUTCHINSON TO HEAD
WAR ON BOIL WEEV|L

NEW YORK, January S.-Dr. Miller
Reese Hutchinson. engineer and invent"
or OF this city, has been appointed by
the American Cotton Association as
Damaging director, scientific research,
Cor boil weevii control. DR.. Hutchin-
son formerly was chief engineer for
Thomas A. Edison,
In discussing his appointment to con-
6uct a campaign against the boil weevil,
MIR. Hutchinson said the pest destroyed
$600,o00,000 worth of cotton last year,
and as result the cotton crop in this
country was the smallest in thirty years
Reserve supplies have been exhausted
and a crop failure this year would
mean that the mills would have to shut
down for lack of raw material.
AS the first step to combat the boil
weevil, Mr.. Hutchinson says he has
learned where he can get $4,000 tons
of calcium arsenate, which is the only
chemical which kills the pest without
injury to the cotton. The available
supply was thought to have been from
10000 to $4,000 tons.
Mr.. Hutchinson has started a cam
paign to raise $2.500,000 from plant
ers, bankers and spinners. and is 60
ing to get $4,000 scientists to do re-
search work to discover new meth
ods of applying calcium arsenats.
He says the United States produces
81 per cent Of the worlds cotton and
that 81 per cent of the United States
Ssstsa belt is infected.

BUT FEW CHANGES
|N.BOND MARKET
Liberty Issues Remain Quiet.
Rails Register Slight
Advances.
BY GEORGE n. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. January 3.--It became
increasingly evident today that the
factor which is operating to keep
down the price of investment secu-
rites is anticipation OF heavy de-
mands for new financing.
During the depression of a year
ago funds which were temporarily
not needed In business went into
sound bonds and inaugurated the up
ward movement in that market. AS
business revived and the money was
again needed for legitimate CONNER
cial purposes these securities flowed
back in such volume as to check the
advance and even turn 1t into slight
decline. This process ended about
a month ago. since which time prices
have been relatively firm.
New Factor in Market.
Now comes a new influence. The
business Is so pronounced that not
only funds previously invested In Sc
curities are needed, but new moneys
must be found. The result is a flood
of new offerings Is in prospect, both
bonds and preferred stocks. In the
face of this competition demand for
old issues, seasoned securities. lags.
At the same time there is no weak
ness and when the new issues are di-
geted there ought to be enough in
vestment capital to take care of both
the new and the old.
This consideration probably accounts
for the recent action of United States
government obligations. Today, for in
stance. all the old AZ per cent issues
fiuctuated, with very little net change,
and the new Treasury ~ and the tax
exempt Shs were steady, but showed
no inclination to advance.
Rails Advance Practically.
High grade rails, such as Union Pa
cific first IS, Northern Pacific IS and
Lehigh Valley Consolidated AVS ad-
vanced fractionally. In the same class,
as far as security goes, but an entirely
different form of investment, United
Kingdom issues. both the 1887 maturity
and the 1929, the latter fiuctuating with
sterling exchange, continued the ad-
vance begun a week ago.
Short-ter1n issues of high-Rr such
as Chicago and Northwestern Gus, were
also firm. Among the more speculative
description Seaboard Air Line adjust
ments, on which interest 10 now being
paid: Denver and Rio Grande refundng
So, about the status of which there has
been so much discussion, and the Chi
cago and Alton 3hs, in default, all made
substantial gains. Southern Railway As,
a second grade bond, were In some de-
mand. Foreign bonds generally were
not affected by the news OF the difficul-
ties at Paris.

The defendants, it was charged, ad-

best interests of the United States
but in great part in the interests

The Indictment recited the names
of numerous army officers, who, it
said, were deceived, misled and over
ridden by the defendants, causing
great waste of money and unjusti-
fable profits to the defendants and
their associates.
Officers regularly responsible for
the construction work who found
themselves out of harmony with the
plans of the cOnspiratOrs the indlct-
ment continued, were replaced by
others as a part of the program of
the defendants to procure detail or
