Child Labor in China.

Miss Tak-hng Shin, welfare work
er of Hongkong, who is now in Eu-
rope studying conditions, says that
women and children are especially
cheap in China.
In that country there are 40O,00O00O
people, with only 4 per cent literate,
and they die off by thousands, she
asserts When child is week or
two old she is taken by her mother
to the factory, laid in a corner, and
fed at intervals. If she survives, in
a year or two she toddles about among
the machines. At four or five she
learns the rudiments of the work, and
at six or eight is an adept, taking her
place in the ranks of regular workers.
They work from twelve to sixteen
hours a day

 Al the extreme point of the .4break in prices today wheat for May deltv- cry showed a loss of 5Hc as compared with Saturdays top level, the biggest setback in several weeks. Meanwhile, seaboard demand for domestic wheat was slow and statement was issued by a large concern here suggesting that producers in this country should ac- cept present prices rather than see Ar successfully supply the needs of Flu rope.
 exports from Argentina this season would ba heavy by February 10, big commission houses here were persist ent seiiefs and except at the start very little notice was taken of 100000 bushels decrease in the amount of wheat on ocean passage.

Indications of a better demand for domestic millers likewise apparently were ignored.
 Corn and oats were chiefly influenced by the action of wheat. Besides the visible supply both of corn and oats showed-a liberal gain. --. ..'

COTTON PRICES
 SURGE UPWARD
Buying Movement Gets Under Way But Encoun-
 ters Slight Reaction

NEW YORK, Dec 29.-Continuatton of the buying movement which de- veloped in the cotton market toward the end of last week, sent the price of May contracts to 25.50c in today's early trading. Realizing was encountered at this level, however, and reactions fol- lowed, May selling down to 25.12c and closing at 2514c, compared with 25.o6c on Saturday. The general market closed steady at-sa net advance of 2 to Il points on all months except Oc- tober which was "A points net lower.
 The opening was firm at an advance of Il to 35 points. Active positions sold 20 to A points net higher on a further broadening of Wall Street, Western and commission house de- mands. Relatively easy Liverpool ca- sterling and the buying movement here was encouraged by reports of better demand in the local cotton goods mar kets and bullish spot advices.
 Realizing became more active above the 25 cent level for March and after early buying orders had been absorbed prices turned easier, although the general character of the news was un- changed. Late forenoon reactions of 25 or 30 points were followed by an- other bulge on renewed covering and commission house buying, but profit taking continued and southern hedge selling became a little more active in the afternoon. Prices eased off in consequence, reaching the lowest levels ef the day in the trading when March sold at 24.79c and July at 25.20c, or 30 to 36 points off from the best levels of the morning. October was relatively easy as if influenced by recent rains and low temperatures in the south which were commented upon as likely to improve the condition of the soil and kill off some of the boil weevils.
 Exports for the day were 4s,516 bales, making 4,20S, ,438 so far this season. Port receipts 61,572. United States port stocks, 1,692,399.
