ELOPERS 0 REWED UNDER CHURCH LAW Elvira M. del Sobral and F. J. T. Kleh United in Maryland Town. A second and decidedly more formal wedding than the ‘clock-in-the- morning” ceremony which took place in Frederick, Md., yesterday will be held when Mr. and Mrs. Frederick J. T. Kleh return to Washington fol- moon in Atlantic City. ed today by the young s Maria del Sobral. viage ceremony will be in accordance with the Catholic faith of Mrs. Kleh, The elopement of Miss Elvira M bride's sister, The second m: del Sobral, secretary to a naval at- tache of the Br: ian emba. and daughter of Enrique M. del Sobral, subagent of the United States-Mexican Claims Commission, and “Ted"” Kieh of 2400 Sixteenth street, both socially prominent s revealed last night by the bride’s sister, who accompanied the couple to Frederick. Others in Wedding Party. Others in the wedding party wi Miss Marzaret M. Collins and Miss Marie Collins, sisters, of 1349 Jefferson street, and 'lenry Schweinhaut, an attorney. in the Investment Building. Explanation was made in behalf of the principals today that they sudden- ly decided to be married in the early morning hours at Frederick to avoid the “fuss” of a society wedding rather than because of parental objection. The bride’s father, in fact, it is said, knew of the marriage. The hurried trip to Frederick Wed- nesday night followed a dinner held at the Sobral home, 3402 Macomb | street. Due to motor delays en route to Frederick, it was after midnight when they arrived. License Clerk Routed Out of Bed. After eloquent pleadings, a marriage | license clerk was persuaded to get out of bed to issue the license, and Rev. G. Ellis Williams, former Washington pastor, consented to having the couple come to his home for the wedding | ceremony. Immediately after the wedding, | which took place as the clock near Barbara Frietchie's historic home struck 2, the couple left for Atlantic City and the other members of the started back to Washington by marriage license gave Miss Sobral's age as 25 vears and that of Mr. Kleh as 27 years. DEMOCRATS IN OHIO LOOK TO DONAHEY TO STOP AL SMITH (Continued from First Page.) progess, but a suggestion that the Ohio democracy would send a Smith delegation to the convention brings a smile to the lips of many of the Democrats. He might at most have & handful of delegates out of the total 48 which the State will send, they say. Ohio is too dry and too anti-Catholic and too anti-Tammany for any other result. Wet centers, like Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo, are the places where Smith would have strength in the State. He would be snowed under by the Re- publican candidate, whoever he might be, in the general election in ©Ohio, it is predicted. Ohio is not and cannot be reckoned a Smith State, according to well in- formed Democratic politicians.' Yet they believe, too, that if Smith is not nominated and he does not -voluntarily withdraw, no other Democratic nom- inee would have a chance of being elected President. For that reason the Democratic nomination for Presi- dent is not very highly regarded here at this time. This may account, it is said, for the reluctance of Gov. Donahey to permit his name to be used in connection with the nomina- tion. What good would it do the governor to be nominated and snowed under at the general election? they ask. On the other hand, he might have a real chance either for re- election as governor or for election to the Senate. Usually Has Favorlte Sons. Ohio, the “mother of Presidents,” usually has a favorite son in both the Democratic and Republican national conventions. It becomes a question, therefore, whether it is the part of wisdom for an outsider to enter the presidential preferential primaries here, if the favorite son is running too. W. G. McAdoo went into the primaries in Ohio in 1924 against for- mer Gov. Cox. with disastrous results. He received a total of 29,267 votes as xcompared to 74,183 for the favorite son, and he had no votes from Ohio in the convention. It remains to be seen, therefore, whether it is wise for Gov. Smith to permit his name to go before the Democratic voters in the Ohio primary next year. Ohio, how- ‘ever, is regarded as one of the pivotal States. It may on that account be awise for a candidate to place himself before the voters of his party and ‘hope for the best results obtainable. If that view is taken the Smith pro- ponents may yet insist that the New {York governor be given a tryout fhere. Even if he picks up only half a idozen delegates, he will be that much | jahead of the game. What the Ohio mocracy will do if Gov. Donahey Ipersists in not being a candidate is ;:oblemaucaL There are other prom- nent Democrats in the State, includ- fing former Gov. Cox; Newton D. "Baker, War Secretary under Wilson, ‘and former Senator Pomerene. But ‘none of them at present is active in politics. Cox has been a candidate many times, and in 1920 had the ‘nomination, only+to be badly beaten by ‘the late President Harding. Baker Elopes i INDERWOOR MRS. FREDERICK J. T. KLEH. _ might take a fling at the primaries, but it is doubtful he would be much stronger here than Gov. Smith. Sup- porters of Donahey here expect to see him grow nationally in party estima- tion in the next few months. They point out that he has given Ohio an excellent administration during his three consecutive terms as governor, the best administration Ohio has had for years, they say. He has been acceptable to the drys and not unacceptable to the wets. He has declined to permit entrance of pri- vate homes by prohibition agents with- out a search warrant, although he has stood for enforcement of the dry laws. They say he combines in himself many of the attributes of Jackson, t and Coolidge, the sturdy in- on old Democratic principles son, the ability to swing the stick of Roosevelt, and the econ- bmy of Coolidge. Many of the Demo- crats are still hopeful they will be able to send a Donahey delegation to the national convention and put him over, either for the presidential or vice presidential nomination. In this way they believe they will be able to hold the delegation together. In any event, they hope to be able to cast the vote of the delegation for Donahey at some time during the convention.

THE EV PRICE FORECASTS HALTED BY JARDINE IN COTTON DISPUTE rom_First Page) (Continued Congress might be sought at the next session iato the authority of the De- partment of Agriculture Bureaus un- der the law to make any price predic- tions. The Georgla Senator declared | st had cost Southefn cotton planters $100,000,000 by the break in the market and charagterized the author of the forecast as a fool or a knave.” It was announced that yesterd: forecast was almost identica a cotton price review issued a month ago to the press and was of limited circulation intended for economists and fleld agents. The bureau’s pub- Heity director, J. C. Marquis, said that it it had been carried In its entirety by the press it would not have caused the New Orleans reaction. He char- acterized the forecast as a long range prediction and not applying to the present market. Bureau’s Complete Statement. The complete statement, as it ap- peared in “The Price Situation” pamphlet, published by the Bureau of Fconomics with the caution, “release September 15." follows: “Cotton prices continued to ad- vance during August, due to increased boll weevil infestation and unfavorable weather for maturing the crop. The average price at 10 designated markets in August was 19.16 cents, as com- pared with 17.34 cents for July this vear and 17.65 cents for August, 1926, The price received by producers on August 15 was 17.1 cents, an increase of 1.6 cents over the price a month ago. During the first week in Sep ber cotton prices remained steady, but the estimate of produc given by the Department of Agricul- ture on September 8 was somewhat less than the trade expected, and caused prices to advance materially, but they later reacted, due to unfavor- able trade reports from Liverpool and more favorable weather in the cotton belt since the first of the month. “The wide fluctuations and the higher prices of raw material at the present time are causing both spinners and buyers of .cotton manufactured £oods to be rather cautious in their buying. The movement to mills has continued at a good rate, world spin- ners' takings from August 1 to August 26 being about 36 per cent greater than for the corresponding period a year ago. Reports received from mills by the Association of Cotton Textile Merchants of New York show the ratio of sales to prodiction in July to be 94 per cent, as compared with 149 per cent during July, 1926. Stocks of hand on July 31, however, were less than a year ago, being 178,000,000 vards against 288,000,000 on July 31, 1926. Total Mill Consumption. “Total mill consumption of cotton of all growths for the past season reached a high record of 25,880,000 bales, compared with 24,681,000 bales for the 1925-26 season. The world mill_consumption of American_ cotton for the year ending July 31, 1927, was 15,777,000 bales, as compared with 13,730,000 bales for the year ending July 31, 1926. In spite of a record world consumption and the large out-of-sight movement, stocks are still heavy. World mill stocks of cotton of all growths on July 31, 1927, were 5,341,000 bales, compared with 4,498, 000 for July 31, 1926, and 4,267,000 bales, as compared with 3,686,000 the same time a year ago and 2,343,000 two years ago. The world carry-over of American cotton on August 1, 1927, was about 7,800,000 bales of lint cot- opened this evening at a session of the ton, compared with 5,600,000 bales on club, which will be addressed by Com- {August 1, 1926. “The consumption and the move- ments of cotton on the European continent were heavy during the second half of July and the first half of August. There was a continuation, however, of the tendency to slow up in central Europe. In Germany and central Europe high mill activity has been maintained, but new orders are HINGTON, slower. Unfilled order decreased and stocks have been increasing. The outlook for || continued activity, however, in the near futus is favorable. Depression | continues in the American section at Lancashire. There has been little im- | provement in France and Italy. Decline of 800,000. “Crop conditions in the United ates on September 1 indicated a production of only 12,692,000 bales, a decline of 800,000 bales during August. Declines occurred in all States except New Mexico, Arizona_and California, the principal decline being registered in Oklahoma. In all important cotton States the weevil is the dominating factor in the situation. Propagation of this pest has been accelerated by wet weather over much of the belt. Infestation increased materially dur- | ing the month of August. The extent | of infestation has quite generally checked fruiting and the probability of any important top crop is small over large areas. “As the size of the crop is hecoming || more definitely established, the mar- ket should become more stable and the tone in the yarn and finished goods market should be more settled. Due to the fact that the prospects of a top crop are very small, cotton will be ginned unusuaily early this vea As was indicated in last month's re- port, should the present estimate of production be realized, and the past relationships between supply and price prevall, it is likely that prices will decline in the next few months. BETRAYAL IS CHARGED. coming in have further Rankin Says Farmers Lose Millions and Threatens Probe. TUPELO, Miss., September 16 (P).— Charging that the Department of griculture has betrayed the cotton farmer, Representative John E. Rankin of the first Mississippi con- gressional district has announced that when Congress convenes he will start an investigation “to see if we cannot locate the sinister influence behind the Department of Agriculture in fts present unfriendly attitude toward the cotton growers.” Mr. Rankin in telegram addressed to Secretary Jardine, made public here, protested vigorously against the reported prediction as to cotton prices which sent the markets tumbling yes- terday. “Your department has again be- trayed the cotton farmers - of the South and West by giving out a state- ment predicting a decline in the price of cotton if present crop prospects are realized,” Mr. Rankin said in his tele- gram. “The sole purpose of this statement was to depress the price of cotton for the benefit of New England spinners and it was not based on any knowledge of the conditlons of the cotton crop at this time.” Bearish Message Charged. The Mississippl Representatiye de- clared the messages he had received from members of Congress over the cotton belt were “almost unanimous in predicting a crop ranging from 50 to 75 per cent of the amount made last year.” “Your unprecedented action in giv- ing out your bearish statement has had its effect,”” Mr. Rankin said in his message to the Secretary. “It broke the market and caused a loss of millions of dollars to the farmers your department is supposed to serve.” Continuing, Mr. Rankin said In his telegram that he proposed to start an investigation when Congress con- venest to “locate the sinister influence behind the Department of Agricul- ture” and to “'put a stop to its present practice of joining the enemies of the cotton farmers and using its influence as a Government agency to depress the price of cotton to their detriment.” Head of Broom Factory Dies.
