COTTON PRICES
DIP, BUT FIND
SUPPORT

NEW YORK, June l GN.S0.
Cotton futures were easier today
after Liverpool opened lower.
There was liquidation by Wall
Street firms and professionals
and further selling credited as
originating in Red Cross cotton.
Good Trade Support
Good support came from houses
that do business for the domestic
and foreign trade. A fair amount
of buying was done by the Far
East, the Continent and Liver
pool. Southern and hedge sell
ing was comparatively light.
Talk of a Government state
ment indicating a cut Of 80 per
cent in cotton acreage circulated
on the exchange.
Some $4,000 bales of the New
York cotton stock were reported
sold by the Red Cross on Mon
day but the trade here did not
know who the buyer was.
Only $4,000 Left.
1t was understood 10000 would
be sold today and $4,000 Friday,
making a total of 10000 for the
week. Previous sales were $1,000
and the stock 10000, so that
only $4,000 will remain to be
sold.
Midday prices were off 10 to
IL points with July off 10 at
$9.10, October off II at 1894, De-
cember off IL at $3.50 and Jan.
uary off 10 at $3.50.

GRAIN FUTURES
TURN LOWER

CHICAGO, June 1 GNS).-
Fairly active selling was evident
in grains here today, depressing
wheat and corn values about a
cent.
Offerings were induced by
sharply lower cables and the ex-
pectation that improvement
would be disclosed in the private
crop reports on wheat issued to-
day. The reports, however, were
about in line with expectations.
At mid-session wheat was 1H to
1886 lower; corn, "a to Zee down;
oats, Is to 34c lower, and rye, "a
to 7sc off.
Support was light in the pits
except for some buying in wheat
following publication of the crop
reports, indicating a crop of 357,-
100000 bushels against 349,OOO,-

This particular evening they had
been planning their elopement.
Only the hall clock. announcing
that the witching hour had been

Then, without warning, a thump
and a click were heard, and the
room was flooded with light. There
stood father, glowering and pulling
at the terrified young caller.

The young man gulped and turned

CONTINUED From Page One)

AS have said before, I grant that there have been
things published in the Guide that 1 would not have print
ed, but it would be impossible to publish, just what all the
people would like. Now, just a few weeks ago the Guide
you will be fair you will admit that you read the Guide
more then, than you had before or since. / did not at all
approve Of all that came in Miss Eyes column, but there
were other news Of interest to read. The people who read
Eyes column and named the people for Miss Eyes,
| think did more harm than Miss Eyes, because they call
ed personal names and Miss Eyes did not. Now that Miss
Eyes is still in the Jail House" and will likely remain
there, why not come on and help build up a paper you
would like for the Guide to be. Why not then send in the
news you have thatyou think others would like to know.
The Guide is one of the main sources the other
group has in getting news about our group here in Oma-
ha. Then, why not help to make this news the kind it
should be. When | hear Of those who will not read the
colored papers, | am reminded Of some Of the schools and
colleges that took German out Of their curriculum during
the late war. It seemed to me that was the time above all
that it was good to study and understand the German
language.
Ionce heard Booker T. Washington say, Zone man
can not hold another man down in the ditch unless he
stays down there with him" / do not think you can help
the Guide by not supporting it, then why not help make
your paper such paper as you will all be glad to see come
to your door.
It was interesting to talk with some of the men,
bers of the Fisk University Qu~artette, when they were in
Omaha a few years ago and to hear them say, If you
want a Chicago Defender in some Of the foreign coun-
tries, you must get it as soon as it is put on the stand, or
you won't be able to get one" The people Of foreign coun-
tries are so anxious to get them to read the news about
our group in America. i,
In conclusion. may | say again, | have not approved
of all that has been published in the Omaha Guide, and
will not likely appreciate all that will be printed in the
future. but | do think we can send news Of interest to the
Guide and give it our support In any way we can TO neip
make it the paper we would have it be.
