8TR@O14 DOWNWAD. TREND Iii COTTON Prices in Market Last Week Dropped Under Weight of the New Crop. New Orleans, Oct. 3.-'he trend of prices in the cotton market last week was strongly, downward )ndler the weight of the new crop, the absence of -a spot demand and the general un satisfactory - financial conditions which, according to all accounts, have prevented the interior from ob taing funds in sufficient amount to hold cotton 'off the market. There were sessions when the spot depart ment led at the decline and on one session spot prices in the interior were marked down from one hundred to three hundred points. In the local spot department prices lost 300 points in the contract market were losses of 101 to 297 points, October closing at 20.80. May the most active distant month closed at 20.01. At. the lowest levels of the week, prices were 194 to 307 points under the close of the preceding week with October at 27.20 and .\lay at 19.08. The market turned very Irregular af ler the middle of the week with the result that differences betaween months were greatly narrowed. At no utime dhring the week were prices above the close of the preceding week, excolpt on May which at one time -was at. a net advance of 5 lpoints. Weather conditions were mixed, the weather map at one time present inir the strange spectacle of an tin prie( dently early cold wave at one end of the cotton region and a hurri 't at the other. The cold wave caused more or less frost In the northert sections of the belt and the hurricane brought high winds and heavy rains to the Atlantics. Fair 'c-ath'r prevailed over much of the helt. This week, spot markets events are bound to be of more Interest than ever and the average trader at one end of this last week appeared to hink linhat the course of prices woul d be dominat(d by what transpires in tha delpa:tnent. At the same time, I!:.' trading of the first one or two mu :'inons of the week Is likely to be colored by. what the bureau 'eports on condition and ginning bring.

C, BIG SUM OFFERED FOR A MEMORIAL Knights of Columbus Offer $5,000,000 to Legion for Memorial Building In Memory of Men Who Died in War. Chicago, Oct. 3.-The board of direc tors of the Knights of Columbus today voted to offer the American Legion $5,000,000 for the purpose of erecting a memorial building in Washington. The building, which would be in memory of the Americans who died in the war, would contain an auditorium seating 20,000, quarters for the veter ans of the foreign wars, the G. A. R., the Spanish-iwar veterans and similar societies. Ownership of the structure would be vested in the American Le gion and it would be governed by a board of directors. Of the fund offer ed, $1,000,000 would be used as an en dowment for upkeep of the building. The $5,000,000 represents the bal ance of the $40,000,000 collected by the Knights of Columbus for war pur poses and will not be taken from the fund with which the organization plans to continue its national work. A committee has arranged to meet Colonel Galbraith, head of the Legion, in New York, within a faW days to make the proposition to him, but lie has not yet been informed of the pro posed gift. The statement, making public the offer, says that If by any chance the Legion should cease to exist, "title to this building and land shall revert to the nation for Auch use as the United senate shall determine." The committee, which will confer with Galbraith, is composed of sf lrem' Knight James A. Flaherty, of 'hilaldelphla, sipr'mne treasurer; Dan iel Callahan, of Washington, supreme secretary; William .1. McGinley, of New York, and Supreme Advocate Jo s ,h 1. Pelletier, of Boston. The loard declared that in making this offer, it "believed it was carrying -)best the wishes of the donors."
