Houses with Liv erpool connections were sellers at the open ing, and there was considerable local press ure after the call. Trade interests were moderate buyers, however, and there were rallls of several points on scattered cover ing. The morning rally of some 5 or 10 points met increased offerings of the publication of favorable weather forecasts and the market made new low ground for the day later. October sold off to 35.38 and Janu ary to 33.61, or about 25 to 29 points net lower. New Orleans was a seller of March here on the difference, the market there being relatively easy while there was further scattering liquidation and local selling of nearer old crop months against purchases of the more remote deliverie.s The market was easier during the early afaernoon owing to the continued favora ble weather news and the easier duling of. the stock market. Stop orders were uncov ered on the decline which carried July con tracts off to 38.18, and October to 35.05, or 25 to 60 points net lower.

After the map was posted, however, selling became less general, although weather conditions were favorable over the greater part of the belt. At the end of the first hour of trading prices were 16 to 29 points under Saturday’s close, July dropping off to 38.30, and October to 35.22. ' Additional selling came on the market following the posting of the forecast calling fpr dry weather in all sections of the belt. Cate in the morning prices were 16 to 34 points under the finals of Saturday. Weakness in the stock market seemed to be the reason for increased selling during the second half of the session. Heaviest pressure came toward the close when the trading months were forced to net declines of 46 t 084 point®, July touching 38.00 c and October 34.76 c.

SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, June 14.—Something of a tendency to sag developed in cotton today as the result of continued highly favorable weather conditions over the belt and the lower trend in the stock market in which many traders read disappointment, over the way the Republican nomination went. The market had a steady tone at the de cline because of continued complaints of the prevalence of the boll weevil. It probably will require marked improvement in crop accounts to keep the decline going. NEW YORK PRODUCE MARKET NEW YORK, June 14.—Flour, dull, but firm. Pork, dull; mess, $40.00.

JNO. F. CLARK & CO. COTTON LETTER NEW’ ORLEANS, June 14.—Liverpool was disappointg, showing futures up to 10 low er than due, but spot prices 27 points high er, sales 4,000 bales. The European mar kets are probably affected by the unsettled state of political affairs as reflected by the frequent ministerial changes and reports of hostilities and disorders from a number of localities. Simultaneous resignations of four Euro pean cabinets, Italian, Polish, Hungarian and Austrian, is viewed as showing the un stable nature of present governments. It is feared Italy will further drift away from her former allies. The weather map shows general cloudiness over the west and locally over the eastern district. General precipitation over western Texas, but elsewhere only few places show precipitation. Indications are not for any pronounced changes during the next 48 hours, but the high pressure around the central part of the country is disappointing and chances for a change during the latter half of the week are more pronounced. The market opened as much as 10 lower on news and reacted to the extent of 30 points on comparatively small selling. It recovered 20 points but acted rather disap pointingly.

Senator Lenroot was nominated for vice president by Senator Mc- Cormick, of Illinois, and seconded by State Chairman Hert, of Kentucky. Judge Wallace McCamant, of Ore gon, nominated Governor Coolidge, of Massachusetts, for vice presi dency. Governor Coolidge’s nomination was seconded from North Dakota and Michigan and many other states. There was a great burst of enthus iasm for Coolidge and delegates fairly fell over themselves for a chance to second him. Coolidge Wins Above the uproar and din a mem ber of the Kansas delegation got on a chair and nominated Governor Allen for the vice presidency. A woman delegate from Mary land tried tp . make a speech from a chair. The convention saw her gestures but never heard a word. All over the hall delegates were standing on chairs or climbing on posts devoting themselves to the business of making noise. It prob ably was a reflex from the tension of ten ballots and five gruelling days in an Intense heat. Colonel Henry W. Anderson, of Richmond, Va., also was placed in nomination for the vice presidency. Nobody could hear the speech, which was made by a member of the Vir ginia delegation. As the roll call for vice president progressed it soon became evident that Governor Coolidge could not be headed, although it was evidently the purpose of many of the success ful leaders of the party to support Senator Lenroot. The Massachusetts governor pass ed the coveted goal of 493 votes when Pennsylvania voted for him -end assured his nomination, the other states falling rapidly in line. Official totals were announced as follows; » Pritchard 11; Johnson 11; Gronna 24; Anderson 28; Allen 68 1-2; Len root 144 1-2; Coolidge 676 1-2. South's Representation After the vice presidential nomina tion had been made Paul Howland, of Ohio, a former congressman was recognized and presented a resolu tion which was read. The resolution provides for changes in the representation of delegates in accordance with the number of Republican votes cast in the various .states. The resolution authorized tne national committee, within 12 months after adoption to make the change and incorporate the new rules in the call for the next convention. This is a move to cut down the number of delegates from southern states which have small Republican votes, but objection was raised to its consideration at this time. A southern delegate appeared in the aisles and moved that the resolution be laid on the table. The motion to table the resolution was lost and the vote on the resolu tion was then taken., It was unani mously adopted. By unanimous vote Senator Lodge was made chairman of the commit tee to notify Senator Harding of his nomination and William Allen White named to head the commit tee to notify Governor Coolidge. Boynton, of California, offered a resolution authorizing the Republic an national committee to fill all > vacancies that may occur on the ticket nominated by this convention, in event of death dr other conting ency. It was unanimously adopted. The convention adjourned at 7:32 p. m. The band in its loft nest played “Star Spangled Banner’’ as the delegates and spectators moved toward the exists.

ONE KILLED AND TWO WOUNDED IN RAID ON STILL CLEVELAND, Ga., June 14.—The mountain people are in a furor of excitement over the killing yester day of W. D. Dorsey, federal pro hibition agent, who was shot to death while destroying a distillery on the premises of John Farmer, a moun taineer, residing five miles from here. Dorsey was shot through the neck with a Winchester rifle and died in stantly. The first shot Killed him. As he fell dead, Ed Carpenter, a man who was with him on the raid, open ed fire on Farmer with a 38 caliber revolver and shot him through the abodmen, inflicting a dangerpus, if not fatal wound. Farmer then shot Carpenter in the chest. The wound was painful but not dangerous. Farmer was arrested and brought here to be placed in jail, but the condition of his wound made it nec essary to take him to Gainesville to a hospital. It is understood that his chances of recovery are doubt ful. There is much speculation here as to whether he will be tried in the state court or the federal court, in the event of his recovery. Dorsey was known as “Little Bill” Dorsey, and for eighteen months had been the scourge of the mountain distillers and blockade runners. He lived near the Mossy Creek camp ground, was a native of White coun ty, and knew the country and the people. It was said of him that he was an agent who could not be ‘bought or bluffed or begged.” The liquor fraternity respected his cour age and feared his efficiency. He made himself a thorn in their flesh When Dorsey accepted his commis sion as a federal prohibition agent, he rode all over the mountain coun try and notified the people of his new job. He told them fronkly what he proposed to do. There was no cam ouflage or mincing of words in his announcement. “I am going to see that you people make your living between the plow handles this year,” he informed those constituents whom he suspected of engaging in an in dustry different from agriculture. “There are not going to be any more picnics along the branches in this territory.” And the worst thing the mountain people say against “Little Bill” is that he meant exactly what he said. In the southwestern part of White county, where a little mountain branch marks the dividing line be tween White and Hall counties, a road running under a trestle on a railroad spur track which leads to a pyrites mine. This road goes down from Shoal Creek valley to the main highway from Cleveland to Gainesville. The underpass beneath the trestle is very narrow and the road is very rough. On either side of the trestle is a high embankment. Versions Differ The trestle makes a perfect trap for blockade runners traveling that road, and “Little Bill” Dorsey used to take his stand there, put a bar across the road, and catch them go ing down from the little mountain valley to jthe'main highway. He made the trestle such a dangerous place that the blockade runners in that vicinity were compelled to take a long and circuitous route to get around it. Along the highway from Cleve land to Gainesville, Dorsey operated With most aggravating frequency and precision and boldness. Many is the automobile and many the gal lon of moonshine liquor that hive fallen a prey to his vigilance in re cent months. A blockade runner traveling that road was haunted by the thought of “Little Bill” Dorsey, who was liable to step out and stop him at any narrow place, confiscat ing his car and his cargo. In hunting distilleries, Dorsey was no less efficient. It is said he would post himself in the top of a tree on a mountain side and sit there for hours, searching the landscape for the tell-tale smoke from a moonshin er’s “run.” When the moonshiners got on to his habits they began to burn stumps in the mountain coves to give him false clues. He would start at the mouth of a branch, where it ' emptied into a creek, and trace it to its source. Wherever a brook came down to the branch, he would turn up the brook and trace it to its source. His “branch-walking” habits made it very difficult to hide a distillery where he could not find it, for the making of liquor requires running water. Versions of the shooting differ widely. Some say Dorsey went to Farmer’s house and was under the house searching for a “still” when Farmer discovered him and shot him. Carpenter claims that Dorsey went with a search warrant, served it on Farmer, and was making the search in a shedroom adjoining the kitchen when Farmer opened fire. News Spreads Rapidly The news of the shooting spread like wild-fire through the mountain country. Automobiles running the mountain roads took it far and wide that “Little Bill” Dorsey had “got it in the neck,” which literally was the truth in this particular case, for the bullet from Farmer’s Win chester tore away Dorsey’s jugular vein and almost severed his head from his shoulders. Telephone wires were popping with the news of the deadly gun duel that was fought tn the peaceful stillness! of a Sabbath morning. Dorsey worked under the direction of D. J. Gantt, supervising federal prohibition agent in Atlanta. On re ceiving the news of Dorsey’s death. Mr. Gantt dispatched Stott Jackson and J. O. Lay to make an investiga tion of the shoqting. They spent some hours in the neighbor Sunday morning and returhed to Atlanta. There is much speculation as to what the outcome of the shooting will be. The mountain people be lieve there will either be. a lull or a ‘two-for-one” campaign against the liquor traffic, by which phrase they mean that the force of agents will be doubled in this vicinity.

Q. —Where did ordinary house eats come from? 2. A.—lt was formerly thought that house cats were progeny of tamed pairs of European wildcats. Historical investigation has proven that they came from the North Afri can “gloved” or “caffre” cat. 3. Q. —How did*', candy happen to be made? z 3. A. —The earliest use of candy was to disguise the unpleasant taste of medicine and it was made chiefly by physicians and apothecaries.

Q. —Is it true that the peace treaty, which was signed last year 2 CANDIDATES WHO WON MANY STATES WERE SIDETRACKED (Continued from Page 1) Wilson administration or anything that savers of a prolongation of it than there are Republicans who dis like Warren G. Harding. Slowly the disappointment will be worn away by processes of political attrition that make for solidarity in most campaigns. It Is too early to say what Hiram Johnson will do. He will not, though, bolt the ticket. He not go elsewhere. He is shown to probably will do his share in stump ing California, but he probably will be deeply'disappointed, but far from bitter over the result. He will be regular, but he will make little ef fort in my judgment to deliver his own strength to the Republican ticket, the strength which he mar shalled in the primaries. For one thing, he couldn’t deliver it, because in moments of confusion, the Repub lican resolutions committee omitted from the platform a plank sympa thizing with the cause of Irish free dom. Many of Johnson’s followers were Irish-Amerlcans. The Demo crats probably will insert an Irish plank and hold many of their Irish votes. The Republican managers, how ever, are confident that'this will not aifect their chances ,for success in November. They are as sure of vic tory as if inauguration day were to morrow. The campaign will be an old-fashion one. Delegations will be brought to the new shrine in Marion, 0., just as they used to come to the veranda of the McKin ley home in Canton. But there is this difference: < Warren G. Harding makes a splen did sepech and a fine impression. He need risk nothing in going out on the stump. He is a dignified, states man-like individual who really looks like a president. Question Sanity on $5 Bid for Kisses The question of sanity of a man who offered a $5 bill to the first girl who kissed him is to be decided by a jury before Surrogate Foley. Wit nesses testified that Robert W. Fen nell, son of the founder of the Fen nell Furniture House, was accustom ed to put bills of small denomina tion, like a boutonniere, in the lapel of his coat, as a reward for the first kiss from a cabaret dancer. Mrs. Dorothy Fennell, of 142 West Forty-fourth street, widow of Fen nell, who was killed in France while in the service of the United States army, is trying to break his will on the ground he was incompetent. He left his estate, estimated ’at more than $20,000, to his brothers and sis ters. Prior to his enlistment he had separated from his wife, the testi mony showed, and was well known along Broadway as “Bobby” Fen nell. Husband 40, Is Too Old Gillespie Frederico, of Pennsyl vania, and his bride of one week, who was Angela di Fonzo, of No. 180 Navy street, New York, appeared in the marriage license bureau in Brooklyn. The bride told Clerk Tos caao she wanted the papers torn up. “But, madam you are married. This is not a license. We married you here last week,” the clerk re monstrated. “Why you now tell me I was married? I tell ypu my brother won’t let me have him. He is too old. I never until 1 mar ried him. My family -tell me they have a good match, and two days be fore Decoration Day they bring him. to New York. We meet at this bu reau and I marry 'him.

A. —The name of God does not appear in the treaty of peace between Germany and the allies and the United States. A great many non- Christian nations to whom the word “God” would not have the same meaning that it has to those of Christian faith, were parties to the treaty which probably accounts for (the omission of the word. 5.

Q. —Can the president and vice president be chosen from the same state? \ 10. A.—This cannot be done, for the twelfth amendment to the consti tution expressly states that “the elecors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for the president and vice president, one of whom, at least, shall not be an in* habitant of the same state with themselves.” A Roughage Reserve .The feeding of cottonseed cake does not do away with the necessity for roughage, either in the form of range forage or in some other form.
