J COTTON NEW YORK, Oct. 20.—Covering was re newed at the opening today, first prices being 80 points higher on October, and from 35 to 54 points higher on later deliveries. Firm Liverpool cables, reports that London was still hopeful of an early settlement of the strike, Liverpool buying and un settled weather in the southwest, were fea tures which promoted covering by local shorts. Spot houses and some of the south ,ern wire houses sold on the advance, how ever, and fluctuations after the call were irregular, December easing off from 19.28 to 19.05 and then rallying to 19.15 compared with 18.90 at the close yesterday. Trading became less active later, and fluctuations were irregular. The absence of hedge selling on anything like the recent scale had a sustaining influence, however, and prices worked back to about the early high point. December worked up from 19.05 c to 19.28 c and March from 18.90 c to 19.20 c, or 38 to 57 points net higher, but the week ly report of the weather bureau was more favorable than expected and there were reactions of several points early in the noon hour. . Reports from England that negotiations were under way that might end the coal strike before the week was over and the statement in the weekly crop reports from the government that picking was completed over a good portion of the southern and central sections of the belt sent the market up again in the late trading. Toward the close prices were at net gains of 46 to 48 points. NEW YORK COTTON The following were the ruling prices tn the exchange today: . , Tone, firm; middling, 20.50 c, quiet. Last Prev.

In the first hour of business tha etcive months rose 50 to 60 points, December advancing to 18.92 and May to 18.58. Reports from the interior that little spot cotton was for sale gave the market a good under one. Realizing by recent buyers was not well received and the market fell off until Oc tober was a point under yesterday’s close and the gains on other months were reduced ‘o 2 to 8 points. Lat e in the morning the one was steadier and prices recovered to .et advances of 7 to 18 points.

The feature of the weekly crop reports was the claim that picking has been completed over wide areas, which means that the crop is smaller than most people have been countingyon. We believe in buy ing cotton on all breaks.

The alarm was given by the night watchman at a little after midnight, when flames were seen darting from the windows of the Bo tanical laboratory on the third floor immediately over the stairway. The building is a half mile or more from the town and although the fire ap paratus was Immediately hurried to the scene and a line of hose laid, rhe fire had gained too much headway for any approach to be made through the stairway. As a result the salvage was al most entirely confined to the first floor, from which all of the furniture, office furnishings, desks, etc., were safely removed. The building hous ed the offices of the departments of animal husbandry, horticulture, en tomology, agronomy, botany, plant pathology, dairying and agricultural engineering all of which suffered practically a total loss. Particular regret is felt for the loss of the records of valuable experiments made for the past quarter of a cen tury and wh;ch of course it is im possible to replace. Many manu scripts, as well as valuable bulle tins already in print, were included in the loss. The structure was one of the handsomest buildings bn the college property, having been built ten years ago during the administration of Governor Comer, and named in his honor. It was three stories' with basement, and built entirely of brick with stone trimmings. Its or iginal cost was $67,000 exclusive of the heating apparatus and plumbing, a total probably of nearly $75,000. It could not be replaced for twice that amou'nt today. The insurance on the building amounted ta $75,000 and on the equipment $12,000 having been wisely increased recently, because of the largely Increased expense of con struction. Practically the only sal vage, will be in the brick of the four outside walls, which still remain standing. Defective wir ng seems to be the only explanation of the origin of the fire, as no one had been in the labor atory for twelve hours previous. Dr. Gardner left the building at 12 o’clock Saturday with everything in. perfect condition at that time. Dr. Gardner suffered the personal loss of a valuable botanical collection which he has oeen assembling for a long period of years Dr. Dowell and the faculty have promptly taken matters in hand, with the result that ample provision has been made elsewhere for the classes that have been reciting in the Agricultural building. Examinations started Monday and these will be held just as usual, in other build ings which have been provided, such as the gymnasium, old Presbyterian church. Methodist Sunday school and Y. M. C. A. rooms. Dr. Dowell ad dressed the students immediately after roll call to assure them there would be no interruption in study or classes because of the fire. Though the disaster will prove a decided handicap, there is every determina tion that the work of the student body shall not suffer even for one day.

KANSASGOVERNOR WILL INSIST ON WHEAT PIT PROBE TOPEKA, Kans., Oct. 19.—Gov ernor Allen will press his demands £or a government investigation of the Chicago Board of- Trade on his charges that wheat prices have been manipulated, he said here today, upon his return from an eastern campaign speaking tour. “My request to President Wilson,” he said “was merely for an. investi gation as to operations on the board. “I am now awaiting action on that request and believe an investiga tion will show some startling facts and conditions.” Referring to the recent slumps of wheat and cotton, Governor Allen said: “If it is shown that these price fluctuations were due to speculation, cold, deliberate gambling, and not conditions of supply and demand, I will urge abolition of the board. In any even I will fight illegal gam bling in necessities. “It is impossible to conceive how various forms ot gambling in the state and nation should be made Il legal and yet become perfectly legit imate when the speculators and gamblers are betting on the prices of the food we must eat and the clothes we must wear. "Had the Kansas farnjers sold their wheat under the repent break they would have ben forced to lose $190,000,000. I cannot see the merit of a legalized gamble in necessi ties by persons who sell thousands of bushels of grain they do not own and who buy thousands of bushels of grain that Is never delivered.” Convict Escapes in His Pajamas; Steals Automobile Also The fact that a suit of pajamas constituted his raiment was no hand icap to J. P. Seagle, nineteen years old, a convict, when he escaped Mon day noon from the hospital at Bell wood convict camp. The young man made his departure by stealing an automobile belonging to Dr. Paul McDonald, camp physician, and up to the present time he has not been recaptured. The machine was found a short time after the escape, where it had been abandoned at the Chat tahoochee river. It is believed the young man boarded a train fdr Chat tanooga. Seagle was confined In the hos pital as a result of an attack of rheumatism. Monday morning when Dr. McDonald called at the hospital to make his rounds Seagle is said to have left his bed and made his way to the open where the camp physician had left his automobile. He was soon speeding on the road to freedom. Guards fired at the flee ing machine, some of the bullets striking the car, but the young man got away. Seagle drove the car out the Mari etta road a distance of about six miles and then turned into the Bolton road. Just ’before reaching the Mayson and Turner road bridge he turned into the woods and abandor.fi the car near the river. Bloodhounus were put on his track which led the searchers into Cobb county, but in formation was received at a flag station which showed that a young man answering the description of Seagle had flagged a passenger train bound for Chattanooga and had got aboard the train. Locate $30,000 of Missing Funds of Acworth Cotton Mill MARIETTA, Ga., Oct. 19.—Audi tors investigating the books of the Acworth Cotton mills have located $30,Q00 of the $50,000 which is al leged to have been misappropriated by B. F. Hetrick, president of the company. The whereabouts of Het rick remains a mystery. The disclosures showed that $30,- 000 of the missing funds had been invested in stock in the Marietta Manufacturing company. The stock has been ordered transferred to the Acworth bills by order of Judge D. W. Blair. The work of the auditors in pro gressing and those who are familiar with the facts of the case declare that the final shortage will be be tween $15,000 and $25,000. Orlando Awtrey, former president of the Ac worth mills, has been appointed re ceiver and has assumed management of the mill which is operating as us ual.
