WANT BOND LAWS CHANGED
Syracuse, N, Y., Officials "Want to
Sell Municipal Isucs Privately.
SYRACUSE, N. Y., Nov. lo.-Mayor
Will and City Comptroller Conan hara
started a movement to change tho laws
governing the sale of bands Issued by
cities of the second class In this Htato.
The ofllclals want the legislation, amended
to make It possible to dispose ot bonds
when the market Is light, as It Is nl pres
ent, tltlca. Schenectady, Troy, Albany
and Yonkcrs wilt be asked to co-operate.
Tho plan Is to authorize the private
sate ot bonds In ptace of calling for bids.
The law provides that If there are no
bidders the securities shall be readver
tlsed. Mayor Will says the city should be In
the same position as a commercial house,
where the directors In times of money
stringency could authorize tho Issuance
of notes for the amount of the bond Is
sue, and when the market Is relieved tho
bonds could be sold.

BRISK SELLING, THEN
GOOD BUYING ON THE
DECLINE AT CHICAGO
Grain Market Opens Easier
Today Trade in Wheat
Limited Corn Declines
on Selling.
CHICAGO. Nov. 10. -Wheat opened
easier today, with traders selling. There
was fairly good buying on the slight de
cline. Trade was limited.
The export busffioss tho last 21 hours
In all positions was placed at 2,000,CO0
bushels. Receipts nt spring wheat points
were smaller, but tho movement on the
whole continues heavy, nnd stocks arc
accumulating rapidly.
The report on winter wheat area fu
tures will hot be available until next
month, but tho State reports generally
show the acreage will bo considerably
larger than that of a year ago.
Liverpool reported a better demand for
spot wheat, with prices Ud. to 2d. higher,
hut this was offset by the fact that somo
grades could bo bought nt a decline of
3d. The news from Argentina was less
bullish, The French Government Is pro
viding seed to farmers where needed and
Is releasing farm workers from the army.
Ciop news from Ilussln continues good.
Itcports from Germany say the Invasion
of Jtussla resulted In damage to Immense
quantities of agricultural produce. Tho
visible supply of whent In Uurope Is 64,
852,000 bushels, against 67,012.000 bushels
last week nnd 81,000,000 bushels last yeaf.
Corn declined on locnl commission sell
ing. Thero wero somo resting buying
commission orders at tho lower prices,
Yesterday's Government report on corn
was considered about a stand-off. Tho
cables from Liverpool wero easier because
of larger nrrlvals and a quieter demand.
Oats wore quiet and easier, with pit
traders nnd commission houses mainly on
the buying side. Many of tho latter,
however, had resting orders In tho mar
ket to sell.
Leading futures ranged no follows:
; r,oon. Yes.

BIG COTTON POOL
BEING SUPPORTED
IN PHILADELPHIA
Recent Demands on Re
sources, However, Pre
vent Contributions From
Reaching $10,000,000,
City's Quota.
Philadelphia Is dolriff its share toward
rnlslnjr the Jl33.ooo,000 pool for tho relief
of the cotton situation. Although the
city will bo unablo to contribute tho full
quota of $10,000,000 nsslipved to It, Phila
delphia is today making a showing aa
good na that of the other cities of the
country, said Lovl L. Rue, president of
the Philadelphia National Bank and
chairman of the local committee In
charge of the fund.
, "Philadelphia always has done Its
share," said Mr. Rue, "and will do so
In thlB caso. Under the circumstances,
one cannot expect the city to raise an
other largo fund after the recent drain
to which the banks have been subjected.
Contributions continue to come In and
the situation looks very good."
The amount which banks of the city
have sucscrlbed to date was not made
public. No time Is set for the comple
tion of the fund, although It Is said that
unless the total amount of the national
pool was raised subscriptions may be
withdrawn.
The Philadelphia and Stnte national
banks, which are members of the Fed
era! neservo Rank of Philadelphia, and
which weie asked to contribute, have
been jinable to subscribe the sums re
quested because of tho large funds re
cently raised. Philadelphia banks pledged
3,000,000 to the jioo.ooo.ooo gold fund for
the relief of the foreign exchange situa
tion, nnd on November i subscribed im.
wards of tGOO.OOO aa part of their first
Instalment to the capital stock of the
Federal Reserve Bank,
The recent demands will be partly
counterbalanced by the reduction of the
reserve requirements on November J,
when the Federal Reserve Ranks are
opened. This will release 5),000,OOQ
throughout the country, according to
Comptroller of the Currency Williams,
Other cities also show a reluctance to
subscribe to the cotton loan, Boston's
quota of 110 000,000 is far from, being com
pleted, the New England bankers benr
opposed to the cotton pool. It is said, on
tha ground It Is a violation of tha Sher
man anti-trust law, Richmond, with ft
quota of f 1,000,000, and other smaller cities
have already pledged their shares, but In
moat of the cities bankers are, more con
servative In subscribing than are Phila
delphia banking Institutions,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10,-The Important
farm crops of the United States this
year are worth ,068,742,000, or JUOI.000,000
more than the value of tho same crops
last year, notwithstanding a loss of J118,
000,000 sustained by cotton planters ns a
result of the Kuropean war.
Preliminary estimates of tho important
farm crops announced by the Department
of Agrlculturo and statistics of the aver
age prices paid to producers on Novem
ber 1 Indicate this year's wheat and corn
crops are the most valuable ever grown
In the United States, that the wheat and
apple crops are record harvests, that the
potato crop Is tho second largest over
raised and that grain prices aro advanc
ing. Tho hug-o wheat crop nnd the increased
price of that cereal, the large corn and
apple crops and the Increased price of
oats, 'barley and rye more than offset
the big loss In tho value of the cotton
crop.

"HIBS" SOCCER
TEAM SEEMS
ON THE DECLINE
Game With Victor Indicates
Deterioration i n Ranks.
News Notes Gathered
From All Leagues.
That tho Hibernians have deteriorated
to n huge extent was proved on Satur
day when they wero beaten by Victor In
on American Leaguo game at Third street
and Lehigh avenue by threo goals to one.
That the Victors deserved their victory
there is no gainsaying for they were a
long way the better team all round. The
Irishmen played Charlie Danks at left
fullback. Now Charllo Danks has been
a very fine player, but even he cannot
go on for ever. He Is a long way over
40 and for his no ho Is a wonder, but it
Is doubtful If he Is now quick enough on
his feet for a really fast game. Uy losing
on Saturday the Hibernians probably lost
what chanco they had of stjurlng tho
championship, that Is unless they
strengthen their team very soon.
iJlsslou did not over exert themselves In
their American Ieaguo Bamo with l"alls. and
contented themselves with winning by two
goals to none. Wright, tho Falls' goalkeeper,
raved his side from a heavier defeat by somo
xcry smart Boat keeping. On the other hand,
Ncm had abiolutely nothing to do in the DIs
ston (roal. Practically throughout tho gnmo
the pUy was In tho rails' half of the field
and the losors certainly deserved credit for the
stout defense they offered to the Dlrston at

Harry Fisher Had Big
Squad Out Yesterday for
Initial Practice Basket
ball News and Comment,,
When a coach of an Intercollegiate bas
ketball team begins practice with more
veterans than ho had at the end of the
previous season and the old aggregation
was title winner, his prospects for a suc
cessful season are brilliant. Therefore,
no one can blame Harry Fisher, coach pf
the Columbia University basketball
teams, when ho declares that the Blue
and White quintet Is sure to win the third
nnd flnal leg on tho Eastern collegiate
basketball trophy this season,
When the cnue men reported to Draduate
Manager nnd Coach Fliher In the Blue arid
White gj-mnaMum yesterday, 7 men with a
minimum of 2 ears' experience on a varsity
squad, and one with a year's service ns var
sity rrntre were In togs tossing the bail
thrmiKh the net. Captain ltenson and Charlie
I-ce have been members or the Columbia quin
tet for 3 jears. Walter IJwjer and '"Kd"
llurghnrd liave been for two years on lllue
and White nves, while H. Jaques, who cap
tured tho team In 11)12, has 2 yeors, with an
Inlermlfslon of one year. If any one of the
five men fall to show the form which Is ex
peeled ot them. Coach Fisher has several
men who hao played on college teams In
different sections nf tho country, to draw from.
The most prominent addition to the squad Is
kckhard Cilder. a forward from the St. Law
ronee fnlverslty team, of ft iears ago. Ha
will probably take the nlaeo nf "r)an" Vu,
