NEW YORK, December 8 [P.-The
Government cotton crop estimate of
12,727,00 bales was considerably above
average expectations in the trade here,
but had comparatively little effect on
today's prices. The market had declined
under rather heavy Southern selling
and liquidation prior to the publication
OF the crop figures, and the offerings
brought out by the increased estimate
were absorbed on further declines of 6

ALASKA COLLEGE
 TO GIVE SHORT MINING COURSE
Work Will Start November 25 and Continues Un-
 til February 10

Because of the increased activ- ity in prospecting throughout the Territory at present, unusual in- terest is expected to be manifest ed in the short course in mining that will be given at the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines near Fairbanks this win ter. The course this season will lay special stress on the pros pecting for and the working of gold ores.
 In statement sent out by Pres ident Charles E. Bunnell of the College relative to the course, he says:
 For the past 10 years the AL aska College has offered spec ial short course of ten weeks du- ration for the prospector and small mine operator.
 Of Practical Nature
 This work is of very practi- cal nature and the College bends every effort to make the training of much value to the men in the hills. An average of 20 to 9 men take this work during the winter. For the most part these are men who have had mining experience and many of them travel hun

AUTO CRASHES
 TO TIDEFLATS;
 NO ONE INJURED
Two Filipinos in Car that Smashes Willoughby
 Guard Rail

Dado Sarabia and Peter Delaga Filipinos, are kissing their rabbit foot good-luck tokens in thankful ness today. The young men were in an automobile that crashed the rail at the right-angle turn ir Willoughby Avenue near the Gov ernment School and plunged, up- side down, to the tideflats below and yet the two escaped virtually without injury The mStor car was smashed to the extend of a couple of hundred dollars damage
 The accident happened shortly before noon. The machine, going from the city, was running about Is miles an hour On reaching the turn, the car skidded on the wet planking and bumped the right hand guard rail
 Swings Across Street
 At the juncture, Sarabia, who was driving, jerked the steering wheel quickly to the left with the result that the automobile swung directly across the street into the left-hand guard rail and broke through it.
 The tide was out at the time. fortunately for the occupants of the car, which is of the sedan type, for they were unable to open the wedged doors and get free of the capsized machine for five min utes.
 When the young men had liber- ated themselves, they found the only injuries were a few slight scratches on the leg of Delaga.
 Immediately on the occurrence of the accident, fire alarm was turned in and the Departments equipment responded None of it was needed.
 Now in Repair Shop
 The motorists walked to the Ju- neau Motors Company, and it's wrecking car soon lifted the dam aged machine to the roadway and took 1t to the repair shop.
 Three weeks ago, the car, which is owned by Dado Sarabia's broth CT, R. M Sarabia, who conducts a chicken ranch at Aux Bay, over turned after going off the Glacier Highway near the Alaska Dairy. The machine was then put in the Juneau Motors for repairs, and it had just been taken from the Motors company and was on its way to the Aux Bay ranch this morning when the mishap at the Willoughby Avenue turn occurred.

dreds of miles to reach the College for this work.
 There is no magic about the training-no inducement is held out that this work will enable a man to get out into the hills and within a weeks time discover a valuable mineral deposit. But there is a bona fide inducement in the fact that the work will greatly increase a mans effective ness in the hills through opening his eyes to new possibilities and new methods of attack. Thus his chances for success in prospecting or mining are multiplied many times.
 Nature of Work
 "The work is covered by training m geology applied to prospecting,

PRISONERS ATTEMPT AT
SUICIDE NOT SUCCESSFUL
Is Found Hanging From Light
Fixture In Cell Last Friday

Sam Piacuadio, Connellsville, a
prisoner in the Garrett County Jail
since the early part of July, failed
Friday morning in an attempt to
commit suicide. He was found hang
ing from light fixture in his cell
with a moose fashioned from the wire
Of bed spring about his neck by
Paul Kitzmiller, another Jail inmate.
He would have been dead in another
few minutes, it was stated by those
who attended him after he had been
taken down.
He remained in very serious con-
dition until late Friday evening and
physicians held out little hope for his
recovery, but toward evening he raj
lied from the effects of his attempted
self-destruction and is now walking
about as usual.
"No more of that for me-" he told
States Attorney Walter w. Dawson.
Piacuadio, the day previous to his
attempt at hanging, attempted to take
his life when he slashed his arm with
a sharp instrument.
He has confessed, according to the
States Attorney, to being one of the
four men implicated in the firing Of
the Shartzer house, corner Fifth and
Green streets, on June 16. Martin
Jubic and Louis Wisilosky, also of
Connellsville, are in the Jail here held
in connection with the same case,
while the fourth man alleged to be
implicated in the matter, is a patient
at Connellsville hospital where he
was entered for a surgical operation
the day following his arrest on the
charge by Pennsylvania officials. He
will be brought to Oakland as soon
as his condition warrants.
