from these sources, but there was con-
tinued southern selling and offerings in

orable for picking and reports OF in
creased hedge selling from the Atlantic
states.

end Of the first hour, breaking into new
low ground for the movement with the
general list showing net losses of four to
ten points. Private cables reported IL
quotation and hedge selling in Liverpool
with a solid spot demand, but said there
was some improvement in the demand for
cotton goods from India.
The decline extended to 22.59 for De-
cember in the late trading owing to con-
tinued local and southern selling. Clos
ing prices were the lowest of the day and

NEGLIGENCE OF CAFE
PROPRIETOR PROVES
THIEVES DOWNFALL

A negligent restaurant owner. who
forgot to lock his front door Friday
night, proved to be the downfall of
two youthful burglars.
Detectives Hartman, and Higgins,
answering a call sent in by a patrol
man. found nothing disturbed, so they
notified the owner. AS they left the
restaurant they encountered two
youths with pockets suspiciously bulg-
ing.
Light globes accounted for the bulge.
They admitted that the globes were
stolen.
