Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 16.?The Itth annunal convention of the National American Woman Suffrage associa? tion, which had been In session hen atoca last Thursday, ended tonight, rot owing a day's proceeding" mark" . by an apparent truce between the de? ments which had been In opposltlt>n. Among the more Important result* of today * seslon were the election of oflleers, *:he declaration by the asso? ciation of a definite policy opposing any attack on a political party and the adoption of resolutions setting forth the organisation's stand on leg? islation for suffrage and on other public questions. There were but few Incidents in the proceedings that brought out any sign of division of opinion among tho d le? gates, the statement of policy being the only question over which warmth wse displa>ed in debate. Contrary to numerous anticipatory rumors of the dar and nicht previous, no mention was made on the convention floor of tho Congressional union, concerning Which thero had been heated discus? sion among delegates, and no mention was presented Involving any authori? sation to the national body to disci? pline) State organizations which might werk contrary to the association's policy. Anti-administration s u p p o r to r . worked diligently on behalf of their candidates for national offices, who were styled the "representative ticket." but sftsr the results of the balloting were announced, showing the adminis? tration nondnees elected by a major? ity strength of about. 70 votes calm? ness prevailed. (a announcing the adjournment of the annual meeting, Dr. Anna How? ard Shaw, who was elected president for the tenth time, made a brief ref eroaoe to the opposition. She said: *If snyone hta any criticism to make against the president of this as? sociation or the official board that criticism should be offer- .1 first to the president and then to the board. In that way possibly all strife can be ob? viated. We invite criticism and sug? gestions at all times, but we ask that they be made originally to 0?

A substitute resolution on declara? tion of pol. cy offered by Mrs. George Bass of Chicago was adopted by the convention Instead of the recommend* atlon approved by the executive coun? sel. Th* resolut!reads: "Resolved, That the National Agger* lean Woman Suffrage association is absolutely opposed to holding ans po? litical part) respomd! b- for the opin? ions and acts of Its individual mem? bers or holding any Individual pub? lic official or candidate responsible for the action of his party majoffit) ?>n the question of woman suffrtt Mrs. Antoinette Funk of Chicago strongly advocated adoption of tin resolution.

Baruch of south Carolina Tuts up lMnal Million, Just When Things Seem Somewhat Shaky?Re? serve Hoard Heady <o Tackle Urcet Task. Washington, Nov. 17.?Tlie country - Wide effort to furnish aid to cotton producess and find a bottom for the cotton market came to a successful conclusion tonight when Secretary McAdoo announced the completion of the $135,000,000 cotton loan fund. In making- his announcemet Mr. Mc? Adoo declared the success of the plan j was assured. The secretary's statement came at the end of a day devoted to efforts to obtain conditions necessary to com? plete the $100,000,000 portion of the fund assigned to banks in non-cotton producing States. Mr. McAdoo, Paul M. Warburg and W. 1'. O. Harding, r: embers of the reserve board, in ac? tive charge of the pool plan, took ac? tive steps to gather in the remaining millions. Kuhn, Loch & Co., of New York agreed to subscribe $2,000,000. At a luncheon given by John Skelton Wil? liams, Bernard M. Baruch of Now York, said that he might invest In the fund up to $1,.",00,000. His offer was taken to the extent of $1,000,00 and the fund completed. A few hours after Mr. Baruch's offer word was re? ceived from several banks that they Would subscribe to an amount of about $2,500,000, but their assistance was not needed. As it stands the fund is oversubscribed about $300,000. In announcing the completion of the plan Mr. McAdoo said: "1 am gratified to be able to an nounce the success of Cue cotton loan fund. Subscript ioits for the entire $100,000,000 of Class A certificates were completed this afternoon. This assures the success of the plan. To such extent as banks in the Southern States subscribe to Class H certificates the $100,000,000 realized from the Class A certificates Will be available for loans on cotton at G cents a pound. Pull details of the plan have been published and it is not necessary to repeat them here. "The full amount of subscriptions to class A certificates made by banks In non-cotton States amounted at 2 p. m., today to $97,297,000. The suc? cess of the plan was conditioned upon the subscription of the full $103 0 >)?), etui of these certificates. In order to make up the deficiency of $2,ooo,ooo, Messrs. Kuhn, Loch ft Co., of New York subscribed $L,,000,000 and Hern ard M. Baruch of New York, formerly of South Carolina, subscribed $1,000, o<u), thus completing the required amount. "The following is a list of the cities and the amounts subscribed to the fund: New- York city, $50,000,000; Baltimore, $2,500,000; Hoston. $2,085, 000; Chicago. $13,000,000; Detroit. $1,082,000; Cincinnati. $J.000.000; Cleveland, $2,000,000; Kansas City, $2,000,00; Louisville, $1,000,000; Minneapolis, $1,000,000; Philadelphia. $4,?J40,00Q; Pittsburgh. $2,000,000; Richmond. $1,125,000; S*.

P. Morgan Co.. the Na? tional City bank, the Chase National bank and others whose names may, with their permission, be givi n as soon as the complete lists are supplied. The only banks in the city of Boston sub? scribing to the fund are the National Shawmut bank, tho First National bank, the Fourth Atlantic National bank, the Wehste)- and Atlas National bunk and Ihe Federal Trust company. Great credit should be given to Fes tus j. Wade and 'teorge W. Simmons of St. Louis for their earnest and ef f? ct Ive work. "The success of this plan has at no lime hern in doubt, but its comple? tion has been delayed by the selfish opposition of certain textile manufac? turers and local Interests who have tried to defeat it. I am happy to say, for the sake of the country as well as for themselves, that they have been unsuceesbf ul.

Message to McLaurin Asks Terms OW Thousand Hales Delivered in At? lantic POttl Against Documents. Columbia, Nov. 18.?John L. Mc Laurtn, State warehouse commission? er, received a cablegram from Man? chester. England, yesterda v, asking quotations on 1,000 bales of good mid? dling cotton, the staple to be an inch and an eighth in length. Shipments may be made from any Atlantic port within four weeks, and are to he against cash documents. Cotton of the quality is raised large? ly In Marlboro, Darlington und Dillon counties and in small quantities in other portions of the State. It is known as the Webber variety, and was propagated by David R. Coker of Hartavllle. E. W. Evans of Marlboro is said to raise more than 1,000 bales annually. Mr. McLaurin said last night *hat this cablegram would he forwarded at once to C. E. Exum, a ! cotton buyer of ?ennettsville. The 'cablegram read: I "Cable lowest price f. o. b., any At? lantic port 1,000 bales good middling, J inch one eighth. Specify growth. Shipments within four weeks against ;cash documents." It is signed "Mars den." Immediately upon the adjournment of the recent extraordinary session of the legislature, Mr. Mcl^aurin wrote a well known mill man in England, at ; the same time sending him a copy of the recently passed warehouse act. The object in writing was to suggest an exchange of State warehouse cer? tificates and foreign-held American securities, that Manchester mills ; might make direct purchases of cot Iton. This cable, he believes, is in re? sponse to this proposal. In the warehouse bill as drawn by Senator McLaurin there was a pro? vision empowering the commissioner to negotiate loans and sell cotton. This part was stricken out, but Mr. McLaurin says that if he can aid per? sonally in placing cotton there is no reason why he should not do so. The 'commissioner is firm in his conviction that if he had official power he could sell direct to the Manchester mills j and get credit in the New York banks, which are largely indebted to I London. * "Our cotton crop is the key to the situation," he concluded last night, in discussing the situation, "and it is time we were using it ourselevs, in? stead of allowing New York to do so I to its advantage." AMERICA FEEDING EUROPE. Answering Stricken Continent's Cry For Food?Exports Increase. Washington, Nov. 17.?How Eu? rope's cry for food is being answered i by the United States was set forth in ' statistics made public today by the I bureau of the foreign and domestic ' commerce. They showed that during i last month exports of breadstuffs amounted to $38,347,470, an increase of nearly $25,000,000 oxer those of October. 1913.

For the week ending November 14, however, i j exports at these ports totalled $47, E>87,330, an improvement which ofli ' cials say is continuing this month.
