NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 22. The
cotton market had a very steady
opening, first trades showing gains
of 12 to 16 points. Liverpool was
better than due and the weather map
showed frost in the northern part of
the belt. Despite a highly favorable
weekly weather report, which
* claimed that the crop had made good
progress, everywhere owing to warm
fair weather, the market improved
further after the call ownig to of
ficial predictions for frost in the belt
tonight. A private authority made
cqM z dition 55.9 and indicated crop
1/400,000, based on government pars.
The market was rather mervous
and erratic during most of the morn
ing. After advancing to a new high
with December at 23.03 and Janu
ary at 23.05 or 23 to 25 points above
the previous close, the market eased
off 17 to 18 points to new lows with
December at 22.85 and January at
22.88. The advance had been due to
predictions of frost for the northern
portion of the central and eastern
belts and the reaction which fol
lowed resulted from prospects of
warmer weather in the west rather
good hedge selling and realizing. The
market ruled steadier towards noon,
recovering 7 to 9 points from the
lows. Exports for the day totaled
10,233 bales, of which Houston con
tributed 8.684 bales.
The market became easier in the
earlier afternoon on a Memphis esti
mate of 7,513,000 bales ginned to Oc
tober 18 and prices made new lows,
one to four points under the loss of
the morninat. Prices rallied later,
however, >ut the tone was rather
easier tlrnn it -was during the morn
ing hours of the session and prices
ranged about four to six points above
the low levels of the day with trad
ing narrow. A local firm has isued
a report making the condition 53.5
and the indicated crop 12,400,000
bales, based on the government pars
and acreage.

CHICAGO (Wednesday) Oct. 22.
i Wheat bulls gained an advantage at
I the opening of the market today and
; then they had to fight most of the
> day to hold the gain. Corn bulls
I were not So successful as they were
I on the defensive after the opening
iin honors of the bears. Oats showed
I little change, being affected by the
■ action of wheat more than corn. Pro
j visions suffered some setback.
| A rush to buy at the opening of
I the wheat market resulted in a good
j advance in- prices because of the
< paucity of offerings. Pressure de-
J veloped after the start and thereaft
ier the movement of prices was in
good imitation of an active see-saw.
The bulls did their utmost to sup
port prices, but every time the mar
ket approached the opening level
they were swamped with offerings.
There ws» no feature to the in
dividual tradn.g and the bulk of the
business was among locals. Liver
pool was strong and this was credit
ed to unfavorable weather in the
Argentine. Later advices indicated
that surplus estimates were being
reduced and the weather had turn
ed clear.
Duluth reported an urgent demand
from the seaboard for cash wheat,
with bids l-4c better basis than yes
terday. That market reported sales
of 1,000,000 bushels’ of spring wheat
and 800,000 bushels of Durum la)ie
yesterday. The seaboard reported
400,000 worked for export over night,
which is largely for deferred ship
ment. Exports of domestic wheat
and flour for the month of Septem
ber were officially recorded at 39 .-
244,000 bushels. This makes a total
for the first three months of tha
season of 67,951,000 bushels com
pared with 55,206,000 bushels a year
ago.
Corn started irregular on scattered
buying. On the bulge there was
some selling on resting- orders and
this was followed by pit traders.
Shorts took profits on the break.
Weather continues favorable for
maturing corn. Shipping demand
was Jight.
Oats prices were a shade lower.
The market continues to follow the
trend of other grains. Cash demand
was slightly improved. New York
reported inquiries from five foreign
countries for oats.
-tons were lower. There was
a tendency on the part of recent
buyers to take profits and buying
power was lighter owing to the re

OOM'S SISTER
VISITS PRISON: NOT
BROTHER.SHESAYS
After spending considerable time
with Robert E. St. Clair, an inmate
of the Atlanta penitentiary, Sunday,
Mrs. Louis Emmerlich, the daughter
of Mr. and iMrs. F. W. Bergeron, of
Menasha, Wis., left the prison still
convinced that the convict is not her
brother as he claims to be, and as
her parents insist he is.
This was revealed Monday when
it was learned that Mrs. Emmerlich
was the only member of the Berge
ron family who saw the prisoner
during the day. Mrs. Bergeron, for
the first time since she arrived in
Atlanta, was denied that privilege,
despite her protests. The authorities
explained that they had not decided
to hold St. Clair incommunicado to
Mrs. Bergeron, but had done so
Sunday, because Mrs. Bergeron had
-een St. Clair three times during the
past week.
I’ays Second Visit
Mrs. Emmerlich’s visit Sunday was
the second she has made to the pris
on to see St. Clair. She accompanied
her parents to the institution Friday,
and remained over with her mother
after her father’s departure Satur
day. Mr. Bergeron refused to discuss
the case with reporters who ap
proached him as he boarded the
train, but it is said he has intimated
that he believes with his wife, that
St. Clair is their son, Urban. John
Bergeron, who until a short period
ago was supposed to be buried in
the family burial plot at Menasha.
Mrs. Bergeron could not be locat
ed Monday by reporters nor by Red
Cross officials who, acting on a re
quest from the Manasha chapter,
are seeking to locate the Wiscon
sin woman in the hope that they can
convince her that St. Clair is an
imposter and is not her soldier son.
Mrs. Emmerlich, also, could not
be located. Prison authorities, how
ever, said she talked freely to them
after quitting St. Clair’s presence,
and quoted her as saying “The man
is an imposter! he is not my
brother.”
The prison authorities stated that ;
Mrs. Emmerlich told them St. Clair I
refused to tell her what name he
was confirmed under in the Cath
olic church and what was the dif
ference between her age and that
of her brother, Urban John Ber
geron.
“Resumes” Stuttering
It was revealed also Monday that
St. Clair suddenly has begun to stut
ter. This was understood to have
resulted following a question ask
ed him by Mrs. Bergeron some weeks
ago as to when he quit stammering.
St. Clair was said to have told her j
he was shell shocked in France and ,
had not stuttered since.
Red Cross officials continued their
efforts Monday to locate Mrs. Ber
geron, and were anxiously waiting
replies to requests sent to the New
Orleans chapter in which they ask
ed that St. Clair’s antecedents and
criminal record be investigated. They
also requested that the chapter in
vestigate the New Orleans woman
whose letter to Mrs. Bergeron
brought the Wisconsin woman to
Atlanta and resulted in the identifi
cation of the prisoner as Urban
John Bergeron.
School or Jail, Edict
Laid Down m Chicago
For Youthful Brides
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.—Boys and
girls of school age can not escape
school through the medium of mat
rimony, William Bodine superin
tendent of compulsory education,
ruled today in ordering a number of
youthful brides back to their classes,
under pain of jail.
“Where the husband is over school
age, but the bride is of school age,
the husband is responsible,” Bodine
said.
"I’m going to send these ‘cradle
robbers’ to jail when they fail to
send their wives to school,” Bodine
declared. “All brides under sixteen
must go to school. And that goes
for husbands under sixteen.”
Bodine was notified that dozens of
Chicago girls of school age have
been married in and around Chicago!
during the last year, and that nearly'
all of them are taking advantage of
the situation to stay away from
school.

“The Sage of Emporia, Kansas,” and the five-year-old touring Car
in which he is making a. “lone wolf’ drive for the governorship, af
filiated to no party and playing no favorites.
"Sage $ Emporia" Scorns
Managers and Election
Fund, Trusting to Reputa
tion and Rattling Auto
EMPORIA, Kan.. Oct. 18.—No spe
cial trains nor private cars for Wil
liam Allen White.
His “campaign special” is just an
antiquated, second-hand, five-year
old touring car.
But it is carrying “Bill” and his
message to every corner of the stage.
The “sage of Emporia,” in his
campaign for governor on an anti-
Ku Klux Klan platform, is violating
all the commonly accepted rules of
the political game.
He has no campaign manager nor
advisory committee. He has no par
ty backing.
Neither has he a campaign fund.
He is not spending a cent except for
gas and oil for his dilapidated old
“hack.”
Yet politicians are conceding him
at least an even chance of election.
Thousands ace flocking to his stand
ards.
Breaks Old N ow
Heretofore “Bill” always has been
on the sidelines of politics. He ad
mits now that in entering the race
he;broke an old vow that he never
would run for office.
“I don’t want to be governor,” he
says. “I don’t need the salary. And
I don’t care a rap for the political
prestige it can bring me.
“I am in the fight only because
neither the Democratic nor the Re
publican nominees denounced the
klan as definitely as I believe they
should have.”
When his petitions were circulated.
White would not permit them to be
passed around here in h's hoic >
town.
“If I am not well enough known
in other parts of the state to get 10,-
000 signatures, I don’t want to run,"
he told his friends.
But be got the 10,000, and more,
too.
A woman telegraphed “Rill” ask-
: ing him when he was “going to grow
up.” She quoted Paul: “When I was
a child, I spake as a child; but when
I was a man, 1 put away childish
things.”
White’s answer read:
“One greater than Paul has said:
i ‘Whosoever shall not rece.ve the
! kingdom as a little child, shall not
i enter therein.’
“But so long as Paul is your fa
vorite. try First Corinthians, verses
34 and 35. Not that 1 believe it, but
; you might play it on your phono
| graph and washing machine.”
The verses tell women to remain
silent, on public matters.
Campaign on Major Parties
But to get back to the candidate
| himself.
“The two major parties in Kan
sas,” he is telling the voters, “are
the toys and playthings of the willi
-5 pus-wallipuses of Georgia, also the
: wizards of one sort and another of
Wall street, who are trying to run
' this country.
“We must make the state worthy
!of the old days when they didn’t
i take a microscope and examine a
; man’s skin, look- at his birth certifi
cate and give him a theological ex
amination before determining wheth
er he should be an American citi
zen.”
Bands have had little part in the
Wh te campaign except on those oc
casions when they contribute their
services free.
At one meeting when one ap
peared, White said:
“This is the first band I've had for
a week. I want to use it all I can.
A band opening a political meeting
| is like saying grace at the beginning
; of a meal.’
Sings at Meeting
White stopped the musicians when
i they were playing America.
“I want to sing,” he shouted. And
1 he did.
“This running for governor is like
drumming for business,” Wh te de
< elares. “I take the g’ood and bad in
hotels just like other drummers. It
j is part of the punishment for run-
I ning for office.
“But the campaign’s going along

LEAGUE OF IWONS
STAND IS 'WO
BY JOHN W. DAVIS
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.—Demo
cratic national headquarters here
has received the following statement
by John W. Davis, the party’s presi
dential nominee, replying to a direct
question whether he favors entrance
of the United States into the League
of Nations:
‘ln my speech of acceptance open
ing the Democratic campaign, 1 ex
pressed my attitude on this question
with complete frankness, 1 said,
speaking in the sheerest terms of na
tional interest, it was not wise, or
prudent or safe that 54 nations of the.
world should sit together in confer
ence on world affairs and America
be absent. I said while this nation
could not join the League of Nations
helpfully unless and until the com
mon judgement of the American peo
ple supported such a step, the day
will come, in my judgment, when we
should see that both interest and
duty dictated that step.
"I do not believe that the League
of Nations is perfect, I do not believe
that it has assumed its final form.
I believe in life and growth and cus
tom and habit. I arn not concerned
even about the terms on which we
shall appear at the council table of
the world. Out of that appearance
and out of such conference in God’s
good time will grow a friendly habit
among men, the custom of calm and
reasonable discussion and a proper
yielding, not to force, not to a super
state, not to a command, but in the
language of the declaration of inde
pendence itself: to a decent respect
for the opinion of mankind,”
Bothered by Shouts,
63-Year-Old Woman
Shoots Playing Boy
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.—A 63-year-old
woman, Mrs. Alice Lain Palmer,
bothered by the shouts of boys play
ing baseball in a playground near
her home, fired a revolver at them
and wounded Joseph Gallina, 16, Sat
urday. A passerby who shouted at
her, upon hearing the shot, was the
target for another bullet which went
wide of its mark.
A crowd quickly gathered and po
lice and angry neighbors surrounded
Mrs. Palmer, shouting: “Take her
away, and keep her away from the
neighborhood.” As police took Mrs.
Palmer away, they hod to repel a
throng of women who clung to the
police car.
Mrs. Palmer, the mother of twelve
children, only one of whom is living,
is being held in custody and ex
plained later that her husband was
employed at night work and that
the boys kept him awake with their
shouts. She said she warned the
boys to leave and that they had
dared her to fire. The Gallina boy
will recover.
show. Maybe I shall be my own ele
phant before I get through.”
His campaigning is restricted to
certain days of the. week. The oth
er days he spends in his office help
ing get out his paper, the Emporia
Gazette, a small-town daily he has
made nationally famous.
