The southern selling was more active than for several days end was the feature of the early dealings, while Liverpool advices reported a disap * pointing trade demand and increased pressure of hedge selling there also. After opening at a decline of 27 to 48 points and selling 87 to 52 points net lower, however, the mar ket steadied on trade buying and covering, with January working up from 19.68 c to 19.75 c and December from 20.13 c to 20.30 c. Private ginning returns indicated 7,280,00<’ bales ginned to November 1 and a crop of 12.760,000 bales. The moderate mid-morning rallies were fol lowed by renewed weakness owing to contin ued southern hedge selling and scattering Jressure. December sold off to 20.05 and anuary to 19.55 after the close of Liver pool, or 60 to 63 points net lower while later months showed net losses of about 40 to 56 points. Most of the southern selling ■was said to come from the eastern belt and was supposed. to account for the relatively easy ruling of the near months. Reports that southern yam spinners had decided to adopt a half-time schedule led to more active selling early in the afternoon, •nd December broke to 19.50e and January to 19.20 c, or 85 to 98 points net lower.

A private bureau report counted the cotton ginned to the first of November at 7,280,000 bales, against 6,305,000 a year agtr and 7,777.159 two years ago. Recoveries of 30 to 40 points followed realizing by shorts but reports that Welsh coal miners were showing a disposition not to return to work caused the fear that fur ther bad labor news was possible and the market broke to new low levels on some month?.

Corn developed a little strength, with ship ping business nnd smallness of arrivals fur nishing the stimulus. Corn closed nervous, net lower to %c advance. Oats were swayed by wheat rather than corn.

We believe trade interests are quietly picking up both spot cotton and contracts on these declines and believe such operations will be found profitable in the end. Alabama Legislature Will Not Meet to Pass Cotton Measures MONTGOMERY, Ala.—(Special)— Governor Kilby will not give se- I rious consideration to the request of J. S. Wannatnaker, president of the American Cotton association, for an extra session of the Ala bama legislature for the establish ment of a moratorium on taxes due by cotton farmers and the enact ment of legislation restricting the cotton acreage next year by thirty three and one-third per cent until he is shown how the state govern ment can exist without finances, how cotton farmers can be bene fited by a postponement of the payment of taxes temporarily and how the legislation proposed can be made constitutional, wise and prac tical. Governor Kilby in a day letter, made this, declaration In answer to Mr. Wannamaker’s telegram re ceived several days ago. He doesn’t believe the matter of restricting acreage or stabilizing prices is one for the state government and he informed Mr. Wannamaker that the matter was one for the considera tion of organizations of 'farmers, bankers and business g men. Mr Wannamaker made the same appeal to the governor of each cotton growing state, urging that an extra session of each legislature be held without delay and declaring that this relief only can protec* the interests of the cotton-growers The renly of the governor fol lows: ‘Your telegram requesting that I call an extra session of the legislature of Alabama to convene as speedily as possible for the pur pose of passing legislation to post none payment of taxes in whole o' ’ in part until July next and to re quire reduction in cotton acreage by thirtj'-three and a third per cen* is received. “In my judgment the entire cot ton problem, planting, ginning, mar keting and manufacture, is one fo> consideration of people directly in terested and now organized into cot • ton associations, farmers’ assocla tions. bankers, merchants and othe’ business organir.aflons and not sos the state governments. I question the constitutionality, wisdom ano nrnctio-ibility of such legislation. However, I would Tike to have your opinion as to how governments could function fop three-fourths of a yoop without funds. “Where would we get the money for the education of the children of the state, pensions for old sol diers. payment of the military and law. enforcing officers, maintenance of insane asylums and other elee mosynary institutions, courts and the various departments of the state? What would be our justifica tion for stepping the entire ma chinery the government with all the appalling and manifest conse quences in the interest of one commodity? Would it be right to deprive the cotton farmer himself of all the benefits 6f government merely so” the postponement of his tax bill? Suppose the legislation you suggest was enacted, how could the measures be enforced without a functioning state government? Would you destroy the foundation ih order to give special protection to one part of the sunerstructure? I am interested as much as you or any person in the cotton farmer re ceiving just and reasonable prices for his cotton and I had honed that the American cotton associa tion would so function as to ma terially as/sist the cotton farmer. I issued a proclamation last week calling upon the people of Ala bama to support the association. , “Unless satisfactory answers can be given .to these questions, I shall be unable to give serious con sideration to your request.” CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET CHICAGO, Nov. s.—Butter, creamery, ex tras, 62c; creamery standards, 54%c; firsts, 48@60c; seconds, 40(1743c.

I The ring leader of the roving band of negroes which pillaged, robbed and burned residences, cotton gins, cotton houses and ten ant houses In the interior of Mont gomery county from Saturday night to Monday afternoon is dead and his assistants are in the Montgom ery county jail on charges of arson and other crimes, according to a confession of one of the negroes who is now being carefully guard ed by officers until it is submitted to the grand jury. The confession was made to dep uties and said that Warren Taylor, who was killed by officers Monday afternoon when he attempted to kill Sheriff J. L. Scogin, Chief of Police W. H. Taylor and deputies, ar ranged for the commission of the crimes and led the mob, and that fifteen other negroes now in jail were involved. The officer from whom information of the confession was obtained declined to say wheth er or not others were involved in the crimes. Taylor first robbed his mother’s home of eight hundred dollars and started out with the mob on the spree which resulted in the firing of cotton gins, tenant houses and other buildings. In a brush with of ficers, the negro was shot. He then reported that he had pursued the mob and was shot by one of them. His story of his heroism was plaus ible and was believed for a. while, but later he was suspected of be ing one of the mob. An investiga tion and search disclosed the money on the negro. He was arrested and killed when he grabbed a pistol of Chief Taylor and attempted to kill his captors. Sheriff Scogin, Chief Taylor and C. AV. Austin, chief of the state law enforcement department, believe a great majority of the conspirators are behind the bars. They are now attempting to ferret out the motives for the crimes. They believe taw that the crimes were planned by another and the opinion has been expressed that the organization may have been formed in the heart of Montgomery and for a purpose widely separated from that which prompted night-riders to post warn ings on cotton gins throughout the south. No reports of further crimes have been received since the negroes were placed in jail. Chile to Recognize Mexican Government SANTIAGO, Chile.
