FROST WAS EARLY
COTTON CROP LATE

York, October 1 12 The
says: It was a frost market.
Ing froat occurring In tbo Atlantic,
Gulf ami central sections of the belt, ns
well ns some parts of Oklahoma, aud the
Indian Territory. The natural Inference
from the frosts of late Is that the growth
of the green, sappy plant has been checked
over a large area of territory and the yield
thereby materially curtailed. Killing
froat nt this early date, about two weeks
«*dler than usual, coming lu a season
which la on the whole a fortnight late, is
a factor In the situation whose Importance
It would be unwise to Ignore, especially In
n yeor when the dry goods trade Is so dis
tinctly prosperous, and when, to all ap-
jwarances, the world's consumption of
American cotton will be very large, possi
bly, Indeed, larger than erer before. The
advance. It Is true, has been rapid aud
this discounts much, but If the crop esti
mates recently bo popular among certain
of tho trade of 13.060,000 bales or more,
prove to be 1.000,000 to 1.500,000 bales too
large, the advance In prices might go much
further. There Is a strong bull following In
New Orleans nnd also In Liverpool, and
some nrofe&sionala here. Including some
who, for a considerable period were short,
have now taken the other tack, although
there are aotue who persistently fought the
advance, maintaining that the crop has suf
fered no serious harm.
New Orleans, Oct. 12.—The Tlmes-Demo-
ernt says: An abnormally early frost when
the crop is abnormally late spells trouble
for somebody. Anyway the talent took this
view of the situation ond the cotton market
•sored another sharp rtse yesterday, spot
cotton advancing to lie nnd the Ileeem-
her option touching the high level of 11.30.
Quire naturally the demand ' **
stuff expanded and sellers d
seek buyers either. The trade has undoubt
edly reached the parting of the ways and
the big crop and low price people people
have about given up the ghost. lint a
short while ago the prospect warranted con-

A MAINE LUMBERMAN'S EXPLOIT.
As soon as the terms of the treaty
of Utrecht (1713) were known, France
began fortifying her one naval depot on
thla continent—Louisburg, the “Gibral
tar of America." For twenty-live years
the work went on. Over six millions
of dollars were spent. The beat engi
neers In the world taxed their wits to
the utmost to make the tortreaa Im
pregnable.
In 1744 the long peace between Eng
land and France came to an end, and
the next year Govarpar ( S|)lr|ey, ,pf
Massachusetts, somehow got hold of
"one of the most nudAcfoua conceptions
that aver entered tho brain of man.”
The conception was none other than
that of the capture of Louisburg.
On March 24. 1748. the fleet, with
some forty- nve hundred men and thlr-
ty-flve cannon, act sail from Nantasket
Roads; and by the 80th of April they
were ready for business at Louliburg.
The army was largaly recruited from
unemployed fishermen In the sea const
towns of New England, and wae com
manded by one william Pepmrell, a
Maine lumberman, who carried on.
along with hla lumber getting, a large
mercantile buelnees at hla home In Klt-
tery. Pepparell was rich and had Iota
of brain*, but he wan Woefully Illiterate
nnd knew absolutely nothing about
things military. Rut he could fight,
and to the tjaek of taking the Gibraltar
of America he applied hltneolf with
dogged resolution.
With hla resolute New Englanders ha
took one after anothar of the lines of
defenee, "until on the l(th of June,
1748, the great fortress actually sur-
renderad to the assemblage of farmers
and flsharmen, led by the lumber mer
chant, and Peppered had the satisfac
tion of receiving the key* of Louisburg
in his hand."
• Now York, Oot. 12.—This moxningla
market resembled very closely In all
its main characteristics the markets of
the earlleet days ot the week. Again
the buying sought out particular stocks
and carried them upward, while the
rest of tho list was left to bear realiz
ing sales aa best It conld. Under these
circumstances the movement was ex
tremely Irregular.' At the opening
prices went pretty generally higher,
but after that the process of selci tli n
began. The Steel shares, Smelters,
Baltimore and Ohio and St. Paul wu:
pushed upward and considers!..■
strength appeared at times In Bmdlug
and Copper. On tho other hnnd, tho
Pacific shares broke sharply after tln-ir
early advance, and, together with Penn
sylvania and Erie and other leaders,
were heavy throughout the rest ot the
morning. The undertone of the general
market could fairly be described as
Arm. but sentiment In professional cir
cles as regarded tho immediate ten
dency of prices waa very much divided.
The market all through the llrst
hour was fsvertsh and Irregular. Thera
was a strong opening nnd a buying
wave on the floor carried prices up to
the highest range reached In many
days Union Paciflc moved up to
190 1-3, and other stocks followed In
the early trading. With gains of 1 to 2
points. Just when the entire market
seemed strong, large blocks of Union
Paciflc were sold, causing a sharp
break to 188 3-4. Southern Paciflc fol
lowed the movements In Union Pacific
closely, and the entire market for a
time swung with tho two leading Har-
riman stocks.. After the rush to sell
was over there was quiet, heavy buying
of a number ot stocks that caused a
Arm tone again. London bought 20,-
000 In tho flrst hour, chiefly .Baltimore
and Ohio, Pennsylvania and Steel
Government bonds unchanged. Other
bonds firm and active.

A Successful Expedient.
From The Argonaut. J ,
A certain prominent mlnlater was
compelled not long ago to give strict
orders that whllo ha was engntfed In
the preparation of his sermons his
young son must be kept reasonab.y
quiet. In spite of this, however. Her-
arose one morning A moot astonishing
nolea of banging and hammering, whk ii
veemed to Indicate that the steam-
heating pipes were being knocked to
pieces. Hurrying out of his study, the
minister encountered wire.
"My dear, what In the world la Bobby
doing?" he asked. • ...
■Why. he Is only beating on the
__illator down stairs.” w#a the some
what surprised reply. .
"Well, he mult stop It," the minister
said, decidedly.
"I don't think he will harm It, dear,
hla wife anewered soothingly; and It
la the only thing that will keep hint
quiet."
