HUSBAND IS HELD
Police Say Man Admits He

Lyle c. ROLAND, 43, confessed early
today, according to Maryland authori-
ties, that he started the fire in which
his common-law wife, Mrs. Margaret
Hurley ROLAND, 35, lost her life IN their
Seat Pleasant home last night.

extinguished.

Of rubbish, went out into the back yard

COTTON MAKES
SMALL GAINS
FOR DAY

NEW YORK. Sept. "a Q.N.SO.
Cotton futures showed a steady
tone today in the wake of yester-
days decline of more than 81
a bale.
After opening unchanged to 2
points lower, the market moved
higher until gains averaged over
SO cents a bale.
Hedge Selling Offset
A renewal of hedge selling
through spot firms and by CO.
operative brokers, was offset by
demand from the trade, Wall
Street and local traders. There
was some buying from Liverpool,
where closing bids were 3 to 8
American points higher than due.
Today's firmness was induced
by the moderately bullish week
end figures on the New York
Stock Exchange service and
weather details which were con-
sidered unfavorable to the crop.
The chief item in the weekly
statistics showed that the visible
supply is increasing somewhat
less rapidly than last year.
Big Carryover Seen
The Commercial and Financial
Chronicle put the world carry
over of American lint cotton at
12,604,038 bales, against 8,761,496'
year ago. The Chronicle said
the Oriental demand for Ameri-
can cotton likely will be main"
tanned, indicating that the car
ryover will be encroached upon
in the new season.
Final prices were up 9 to IL
points. October was up 9 "a
7.30; December, up IL at 7.4%
January, up IA at ISL; March,
up IL at 1853; May, up 13 al
765, and July. up II at 7.76.

Bradstreet's Food
Price Index Drops

The weekly food index COM
piled by Bradstreet's dropped an
other point to SLIT during the
week ended September 20. The
normal trend at this time being
upward, the seasonally adjusted
index fell to 55.5 as compared
with 56.2 last week and 64.4 last
year.
The general weakness of COM
modify prices offset some notable
rises in foodstuffS. There were
only eight increases in price as
compared with IA in the week
preceding, while there we're 27 as
against % price declines.

Canada Wheat Crop
Biq, But Prices Lou

Canadian business sentiment
has improved during recent weeks
under the stimulus of a good har-
vest, higher commodity prices
and the agreement reached at
the Imperial Economic Confer
ence, according to the current
business summary of the Bank Of
Montreal.
Among the adverse factors
cited is the low price of wheat,
which this month touched the
lowest figure of the year. On
the other hand, the crop, Of
which the greater portion has
already been threshed, is eSti-
mated at 163,000,000 bushels
above that of last year and of
good quality.

Business Recovery
Under Wan SLOWLY

The general opinion in the
trade reports to Bradstreet's
from SIS leading cities is that
business is slowly beginning a
fundamental recovery.
That this recovery can only be
slow is generally realized, but
the marked trend away from alb
ject dispair and towards a sober
but confident attitude is highly
encouraging.

BY LESLIE GOULD

Eion became more pronounced.
There was furry in the to-
baccos. Strength in wheat,
which rose nearly 2 cents a
hushel, brought a switch into
the farm implement and mail
order shares, Case Threshing
squirting more than 4 points.
-, The utilities also came in for
attention at various times during
the session. Steels were better
with U. S. Steel rising about 2
points. American Telephone and
Allied Chemical were strong lead
ers. Rails were firm despite per
Bistent selling, and Baltimore and
Ohio was strong in the merger
group.
Trading Pace Fair
Evening up for the weekend
was pronounced in the final deal
1ngs, bringing considerable irregu-
1arity into the list. The days
best prices were shaded and in
some cases, as in the motors and
rails, wiped out entirely, but last
quotations were geneaNly hit\}er
on the day.
= Trading was only at a moder-
ate pace, with turnover exceeding
100000 shares.
