NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1.-The
cotton market opened active, first
trades showing losses of IS to 10
points. Liverpool was about as due
but New York was comparatively
weak under the pressure Of con-
tlnued liquidation based on larger
crop ideas. The market eased OFF
after the call, until January traded
down to 1927, March to 1886 and
May to $3.50 or 20 to % points be-
low Saturdays closing. Around
these prices the market showed more
resistance to the decline.
The market continued to ease off
during the morning under the pres
sure of rather liberal liquidation in
duced by bearish crop and ginning
estimates. January traded down to
1922, March to 23.1S and May to
23.42, or As to 46 points below Satur
days close. The market around
noon was trading at the low points,
Houston cleared today for foreign
ports 1925 bales.
The market continued to gradual
ly ease off during the afternoon
weakness. The market appeared to
be still under the influence of liqul-
dalton based on larger crop ideas
and fear that the government report,
due next Monday, may show a con-
siderably larger total than it's pre-
liminary estimate of practically 49,

FUG|TNES IN MINE
CONSIDERED DEAD
Wavering Tracks of Man and
Woman Lead Into Area of
Deadly Gases.
By the Associated Press.

by tne Associated freSS-
PALISADE, Colo, August e.-The
three fugitive Palisade post office
robbery suspects, who have been the
object of a siege of the Palisade mine
for one week, are believed to be dead
This was the announcement made this
afternoon by Martin Wenger, post office
inspector on duty at the mine with
Sheriff Jeff Watson and members of
sheriff's posse.
An exploration of the mine today
failed to reveal any trace of the fugi-
tives. The last trace was obtained late
yesterday when an exploring party re-
ported finding footprints within 400
feet of section of the mine known to
be filled with the deadly black damp.
At that time the footprints showed
that a man and a woman had been
travelling together within the mine, the
prints showing that apparently they
were nearly exhausted
Members of the posse yesterday
stretched lines of thread across the
various passages of the mine in an
effort to determine if the fugitives
made any movements during the night,
but an investigation today revealed
that none had been broken.
If no further trace of the trio is
found today, members of the posse
wearing gas helmets will enter the
section of the mine filled with the gas,
hopeful of finding the bodies of at least
two of the fugitives there. Although
no Identification of the fugitives has
been made by the post Office inspectors,
they have declared they knew the per-
sons within the mine and that they
knew they would rather perish than
surrender.

with human errors" For this reason,
says Die Zeit, the party's official or
gan, 1T would be inconsistent to cele-
brate the day on which the constitu-
ton was adopted as "a day of saliva

Military Opposition.
The champions of the movement to
make the celebration nation wide on
behalf of the republican principles
and the republican colors, will also
encounter militant opposition from
the Nationalists and from Won Luden-
dorff's party. both of which propose
to stage counter demonstrations.
President Ebert will be the chief
speaker at the ceremonies in Berlin,
which will take place in the Reichstag
and in the open air.
At Weimer, Prof Hugo Pruss, who
drafted the constitution. and Paul
Loebe, former president of the Reichs-
tag, will be the chief speakers.
The newly organized Republican
League, federal banner. black-red,

and one-half million members, will
observe the day at Weimer. Count
Won Bernstorff, former German Am
bassador to Washington and Gems
Won Deinling and Won Schoenach are
members of the executive board of the
league.
The new league which is made up
exclusively of young men and army
veterans who believe in republican
ideals was organized to counteract
the militaristic and nationalistic ac-
tivities OF such organizations as the
"stahlhelm," 'Bismarckbund" and
'Wehrwolf"
Herr Loebe, who is one of the guild
ing spirits of the organization and
who recently returned from a speak
ing tour in its interests, asserts that
the league has been called into life
for international political reasons
to checkmate the Nationalists and
Militarists, and is itself the very
opposite of militaristic organi-
zation. He declares that many
members of Nationalistic organiza-
cations are joining the league,
which is careful. however, to accept
neither Communists nor Nationalists
of the right.
Our membership" Herr Loebe ex-
planned, lis recruited from the ranks
of the trade unions, the Catholic
youth movement, and the democratic
middle-class young men. We aim to
instill in the membership the ideals
of self-discipline, of helpfulness to
our fellow human being and of
service in the constructive purposes
of peace No thought is further re-
moved from our minds than that of
war"

physical encounter between Senator
N. B. Dial and Insurance Commission

rowly avoided by the interference of

Mr.. Dial made a lunge at the in

the latter's charges that the Senator
had employed members of his family
in his Washington office. Mr.. McMa-

in violation of Southern chivalry to
use a lady of culture as a messenger"
At this the Senator leaped to his feet
and threw himself at the speaker, but
was intercepted by former Gov. Cole

with the aid of citizens, kept the pair
separated and returned the Senator
to his seat.
The meeting was held to hear the

Cecil noticed the man peeping in
at a lower window and ran out
around the rear of the house to catch
him. The intruder saw him. Cecil
fired a revolver every few steps, and
this attracted attention of neighbors,
so that when the man ran into the
woods enough had gathered to form
a Gordon about the fugitive.
After making sure that there was no
avenue of escape, Mr.. Cecil entered the
woods and captured the man. He turn

SAYS UNITED STATES
LEADS IN SCIENCES
Norwegian Pays Tribute to Ameri-
cans in Geology and
Geodesy.

American biologists and geodeists
are leading the world and Europe to-
day is looking to this Nation as a trail
blazer in these lines. This was the
tribute paid science in the United
States by Capt X. Void, ins charge
of the Norwegian geodetic division of
the geographic survey, yesterday as
he prepared to leave Washington after
a six-month stay in this country dur
ing which time he studied American
scientific systems and methods with a
view to introducing them in his native
land on his return.
There is so much opportunity for
the scientific man in this country" he
said. 1T is amazing. Foundations
and institutions are endowed by men
of wealth to study and aid in the work.
I notice that very rarely in Europe
do we find extremely wealthy men who
have benefited by civilization and
acquired millions, putting their wealth
back into the same civilization and
society in the manner in which Ameri-
can philanthropists do.
I'VE recognize America as the
leader in. geodetic science, and that is
one reason why DR.. Bowie, in charge
of geodesy of the geological survey
here, was made chairman of the special
geodetic committee of the international
union"
During his six months in this
country Capt. Void said that he had
learned many new angles of the
geological and geodetic science. He
expressed grateful appreciation for
the open doors held to him at every
turn, especially by the Government
agencies interested in this work, and
the manner in which every doubtful
point was frankly explained to him.
He spent four months in the Geo.
logical Survey here in Washington
and then took, a trip to the West,
when he visited Montana, the Cana
dian Rockies, the American Rocky
Mountains, the Grand Canyon of the
Colorado and the Pacific Coast.
He left yesterday for New York and
it Is understood that from the results
of his trip he will institute several
new American ideals in map making
into Norway upon his return.
