About $30 additional is required to complets the fund.

In view of the mearest prospective ap- eeach in many years to a cotton famine the prics of this staple likely will be in sxcess of 36c per pound before long, W. Irving Bullard says in an article just Pubfished in The Textile World. Mr. Bullard, vice president of the Mer- chants’s National Bank of Boston and treasurer of the National Assoclation ot Cotton Manufacturers, has just returned from a ten-day trip through the cotton states. Disinterested observers belleve, he says. that unless the weather is un usually favorable during the next three months cotton will reach and exceed the price herein quoted. Mr. Bullard sald in substances: Thn expectation of still higher prices for cot- ton is based on several factors, princinzi Iy the great reduction in the world sapply of the staple, resulting from increased ecansumption eoupled with the small crop season. the prospect of still greater con- wumption next year and the unsatisfac tory start the new crop has made indi- — e BANTELSON CASINO, STARKWEATHER BLDG.

Pro- duction was only about 8,000,000 bales, this being the smallest crop in 25 years and about 40 per cent. less than last sea- son. This gives a total supply of about 17,170,000 -bales. With only two more months to run, it is estimated that the world consumption of American this sea- son will be fully 12,500,000, leaving a carry-over next Sugust of only 4,670,000. “The South believes that this country will not produce more than 10,000,000 or 11,000,000 bales at the most this year. On the basis of the latter figure, the total supply nevt season would be less than 16,000,000 bales. Southern cotton inter- ests figure that American mills will re- quire a million bales more cotton next season than they have used this, and the rest of the world will take-a million and a half bales additional. This would raise the world consumption next season to 15,000,000 bales. If the total supply for next season, including the carry-over and the new crop is only about 16,000,000 bales, this would leave only a slim margin of about 1,000,000 bales between supply and consumption or a closer approach to a cotton famine than the world has seen in generations. Southern ocotton mills are very busy, with night shifts working in most cases. The south is looking forward to a further increase in its textile industry at the expense of the north. 'Southern manu- facturers claim that their labor is cqual in quality to that of northern mills, and that they have other advantages in fav- orable climate, cheap ruel, low taxes, nearness to raw material supplies, and, of course, longer working hours. ~ Three- fourths of the southern mills are ruzning on a. basis of 55 hours, the rcmainder 55 to 60 hours per week. Some human with a loose sport model bone in his head, pulled in an alarm from Box 36, at North Main and North streets shortly after 11 o'clock ~Tuesday night and gave the fireren a useless run up to that end of thie town It was a false alarm. The highway for blocks in the vicinity of where the box is located was choked with automobiles within five min- utes after the souding of the alarm, which fact again makes it necessary for fire department officials to request motor- ists not to crowd about a fire location before the serrival of the department’s apparatus, which is hampered by such a2 blockade. Much .of the second preferred stoek of the Connecticut Mills company owned in Danfelson will not be deposited with the protective committee, as has been suggested would be a wise move. This may be definitely stated in advance of tonight’s meeting of these stockholders. Interviews with various local stockhold- ers, some of them owners of many shares, has “indicated during the past 48 hours that they are going to hold outo their es- curities for the time being at least and insome cases indefinitely. It is whisper- ed that there is a prospect of interesting developments in the mill company’s af- Y&¥S .ad that the million capital needed for operating purposes and which must be forthcoming before the creditors’ agreement expires on August 15 may be obtained from ‘one source if not from another.

The boy told of being accosted by 2 man whom he did not know while at Wildweod Park the evening of Me- morial Day. The man took him into the woods and at the point of a pistol made him walk back and forth and finally let him lie dow: The boy said he was kept prisoner until well into the morn- ing of the next day. Upon questioning the' lad the police decided that possibly his tale was imaginary and gave little credence to it, 1 What is apparently a sequel of the tale told 'by the lad or at least what is believed to have been inspired by the story published {n The suastia last week came to the knowledge of the po- lice, Wednesday in the form of a let- ter.
