NE w HIGH LEVELS G0 UPON BOARDS IN COTTON MARKET
Strongest Influence of Week Is Continued Keen Demand For Actual C0tt0n-- Mill
 Takings Larger

NEW ORLEANS. March 4.-This last week in the cotton market saw new high levels for the season go on the boards almost consantly on the old crop months and on spots. New crop petitions bulged close to the highest records of the season, al- though they did not at any time break est prices came on the closing session, when the trading months were 92 to IF points up, May rising to 30.25c and October to 26.38c a pound. The close was S3 to 117 points up. with May at 30.21c and October at 26.32c. March on the spot position rose to 30.50c, and closed at that price, mak- ing the widest net gain for the week of any month. Spots closed 75 points net higher at 30:50c for middling.
 The strongest influence of the week was the continued keen demand for actual cotton, which most people set down as consequent upon at tempts of March spot shorts to cover. Back of this demand was further good business in cotton goods which constantly urged the mills into the market for fresh supplies of raw ma terialS.
 O o O
 Mill TakinEs Larger.
 During the earliest sessions of the week Lancashire complained of poor trade but on the close was along with the American mills. talking in a more hopeful way. Mill takings for the week were 217.000 bales, against 216,000 the preceding week, and the visible supply of American cotton de- creased during the week by 107.6s7 bales. being reduced to 2,554,9S3 bales, against 3.671.s00 8 year ago, and 4.36g.970 two years ago.
 During part of tho week the weather was dry over the belt, but at the beginning and again at the t\lse too much rain fell, especially in the western belt. where planting and preparations to plant are being inter- fered with. Rains in Texas helped to put prices to their highest levels. Should unfavorable weather continue into thee oming week the buying movement probably would attain attain further headway, especially on the new crops, but bright and warm weather would have the tendency to increase offerings

MONDELL DECLARES 9TH CONGRESS HAS RECORD OF SUCCESS

WASHINGTON, March 4.-History will record that no Congress has handled its responsibilities more satisfactorily than the Sixty-seventh. Representative Mondell of Wyom- ing. the retiring republican floor leader, declared today In his farewell adress in the House.
 "The volume of business trans acted" he said, has been enor- nous; the problems met and passed upon many and difficult. No Con gross that ever sat has been more iiligent in attendance upon the pub lie bushes. The House of rep resentatives has made particularly splendid record of wise economy. sound and helpful legislation"
 Turning to accomplishments of the Harding administration, MT. Mondell said he believed a survey would convince any fair observer that the United States, has made in the period since that administration came into power, a far greater ad- vance than any other great nation has accomplished in the same period.

ENSLEY OFFICER |S SHOT AND SLIGHTLY INJURED BY NEGRO
Struck in Forehead and Nose Before Gunman is DOWned. Will Sell Church

ENSLEY BUREAU l THE AGE-HERALD ! EnsleY. Ala. March 1

Police Officer N. A. Walker of the Ensley precinct was shot twice and slightly wounded by a negro named Sam Shumate, Sunday morning about s:30 o'clock at No. , mine camp of the Tennessee company in Vivian. Officer Walker probably owes his life to the fact that his police cap was would have probably been fatally wounded as one of the bullets from the negro's gun struck the bill of his cap, causing the bullet to split in two. one part of the bullet strik- ing him on the forehead, causing an ugly, but not serious, wound.
 Another bullet struck him On the end of his nose, splitting the tip, while the rest of the bullets went wild.
 A call came in to the Ensley police station Sunday morning from Vivian that negro had threatened to shoot another negro and Call Officer w. b. Smith and Officer Walker answered the call. When they arrived at No. camp the negro who was causing the trouble was pointed cut to the of ficers down the road little way and when the officers, who were in one of the city Fords, drove up within a few feet of the negro and told him to come to the car he turned around within 5 feet of the two officers and began firing at them with a .3S-caliber Smith & WessCn pistol before the officers could realize what had happened.
 Both officers returned the fire as soon as they could draw their guns, and one of the bullets struck the ne- gro's hat right at the band, which knocked him unconscious for few minutes. Officer Walker stated that he believed the second shot fired by the negro was the one which struck him on the nCse as he felt the end of his nose stinging just a few seconds before the other bullet struck his cap. It is remarkable that Officer Smith was not hit, as the negro was on his side of the car when he began firing and Officer Walker was sitting in the front seat beside him and was hit twice or, as he afterward stated. Tt was too close to be comfortable. Officer Walker was brought back to Ensley and carried to the Cffice of Dr. M. D. Clemments. city physician, where his wounds were dressed after which he went back and patrolled hi S beat until o'clock Sunday afternoon. He has been on the police force for number of years, being a member of the force when Greater Birming- ham went into effect in 1910. The V half of the bullet which struck him was found lodged in his cap and he stated that he would keep it as a souvenir Of one of the closest calls he has ever had while member of the police department. The negro was lodged in the Ensley jail on a charge of assault with intent to mur- der.
