WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW
V Sadden Drop In Cotton—Stock*
(I'uict—Wheat Turn* Easier.
The cotton market ruled higher early
in the week and August advanced 17
points to 9.87 c on Monday. The bureau
report on Tuesday was about as expect
ed, and therefore, although the average
conditon was given as 75.8 the lowest for
July on record, it had very little effect.
On the other hand, favorable weather
this week joined to various demoralizing
outside influences caused a gradual weak
ening of prices. Up to Friday’s close,
however, there had been no forewarning
of the storm which was to break on
Saturday. After showing marked weak
ness all the morning, toward the close
of the short session the bulls got in a
sudden panic, and ihe market fell off
30 points in about half that many minutes.
The break in August amounted to about
50 points for the day, with a closing rally
of some 10 points; August sold as low
as 9.03 c, and closed at 9.12 c, a decline for
(he week of 58 poims. New crop montns
were well sustained until Saturday, when
the collapse in August helped the Chroni
cle's bearish crop reports to influence a
pretty sharp decline. September closed
27 points lower, at 8.64 c; October 21 points
lower, at 8.33 cents.
It has been repeatedly urged in this re
view that with favorable prospects for
the growing crop it was unreasonable to
expect pergianenee for the recent hign
range of prices, under the extraordinarily
adverse circumstances. It was simply a
nutation of the settlement of some manip
ulative deals, after which the over-san
guine outside ‘'tailors” would be left to
get out as best they could. It Is by no
means certain that such settlement his
yet occurred, but Saturday’s panic will
serve as an object lesson ns to what may
happen some other day on a larger scale.
With a fair-sized crop, which now again
seems to be getting among the probab
iliteg. it is difficult to see how planters
can expect to get more than 7 to 7%c for
their cotton next fall.
The stock market continued quiet, and
without decided move either way. Values
ware very well sustained in spile of de
pressing foreign advices, and were gener
ally higher, especially sugar, some other
Industrials and some railroads. Latterly
a little reactionary tendency was evident.
Tim bank statement on Saturday was as
unexpectedly favorable os li was unfa
vorable the week before, and had as lit
tle effect. .
Wheat advanced over 2c on Wednesday
on the very poor government report, hut
Inter broke on more cheerful news, with
Increased estimates of Ihe spring wheat
yield. A break of nearly 5c resulted, and
the market closed heavy.
The prospects for corn were said to be
brilliant, yet (hat cereal was held up
mainly on reports or drought in (lie South
west. Provisions were quiet, and at the
close show little change.

BWKKH CLEWS* VIEWS.
The rinnnclnl Outlook •% Seen From
Wall Street.
New York. July 14.—The stock market
has developed considerable strength in
spots and, as a whole, is stronger than a
week ago. Two of the most influential
factors in the market have been the de.
velopments in the Chinese situation and
in the Kansas City convention. It Is quite
evident that the most vital question in the
next election will be sound money. Other
issues, such as imperialism, trusts, etc.,
will be made to serve electioneering pur
poses; but, as lime wears down the minor
points of discussion, the free silver or
sound money cause rises In importance.
This is not to be regretted. On the con
trary, the squarer the issue on these mat
ters the more surely will American sanity
assert itself; and the prospects of a
great sound money victory this fall are
Infinitely greater than four years ago.
Affairs in China are still greatly con
fused. The worst that was feared seems
to have happened. Until the present dy
nasty is removed and China is given a
clean and capable government, the future
must be problematical. That is now the
task before the great Powers, and it
augurs well that so little friction has
thus far developed on a subject regarding
which there has been for years such in
tense international jealousy. China is
now parsing through the throes of anew
birth. When these are over, the world
will witness an “opening” such as never
before experienced; that of Japan sinking
into insignificance because of the enor
mous population and resources of China.
The opening of China means more to the
United States than to any other nation.
No people i so favorably situated for
supplying the wants which Western civil
ization will create in China. Kailrotds and
electrical devices will come first; food
product? will follow after; yet these will
be but a beginning of the development of
a greater commerce that will flow out
through our Pacific coast cities from our
established industries in the Eastern
’states and the new industries of the West
and South. American industry, in due
time, will benefit from the resurrection
of China far beyond what it yet realizes;
and as for Americntl capital, that is like
ly to be as enterprising in seeking new
openings hs English, German or Russian
when a stable and liberal government is
established.
Values have shown a decided disposition
to Improve, in the face of light transac
tions. which appear to demonstrate the
inherent strength of the general situation.

The readjustment in general business lines
has lately been viewed in a rather too
pessimistic way by many people. The
enormous demand of the last two yea.*s
inevitably resulted in an overproduction,
which must await gradual consumption,
hence the shading in prices, and the slark
ing off in sales, but the fact remains that
the great mass of the people is upon a

‘‘The Law of Animals”—a treatise on
Property in Animals, Wild and Domestic,
and the Rights and Responsibilities Aris
ing Therefrom.” by John H. Ingham of
the Philadelphia bar. T. & J. W. Johnson
& Cos., of Philadelphia, publishers. One
volume, sheep, $6.00. This book is one that
is interesting to the laity as well as to
the profession. It is, of course, a law book
but on almost every page there is some
thing of Interest to the general reader.
To the lawyer it is extremely valuable,
and no one of the legal profession who
does a general practice can afford to be
without it. The law journals speak of it
in the most complimentary terms. The
American Law Register says: “U is re
freshing to find a law book of really lit
erary merit. Not since the publication
of Pollock’s treatise on the law of Torts
have we found one more easy to read.
The reason is that text-books writers
are lawyers first and rhetoricians after
ward. The same thing might be said of
Judges whose opinions ure so frequently
overburdened \vlh learning and ‘latent
ambiguities,’ that what they really mean
to say is largely a matter of speculation.
Just as the Commentaries of Sir William
Blaekstone were the first coherent elu
cidation of the law of England, so Is
Mr. Ingham’s book the first systematic
treatment of the law of animals. To he
sure one treats of many subjects and the
other of but a single subject. However,
both are pioneers in what was hitherto
a more or fess unknown country. The
maps that havq been prepared for us will
vastly facilitate our Journeys over both
fields.
“In short, Mr. Tngham’s book Is likely
to become a standard work. TTe starts
tinder favorable auspices; even the proof
readers seem to have been unusually
industrious, as there is a notable absence
of the typographical errors which so
greatly mar legal compositions. We hope
the book will meet with the success It
deserves.”
UEFA* KILL A COW.
Farmer anti 111" Hash Wife Terribly
I njnreil.
From the New York Press.
Belvidere. N. J.. July 12.—It’s bard to
say Just whet a cow will do; it is safe,
however, to declare that if Jack Hart
zell’s Jersey had another chance she
would confine her effort* in the kicking
line to pails of milk. But she's a dead
cow now. her hide perforated In thousands
of places nnd swollen beyond measure.
She was foolish enough to kick over a
beehive; the leea. indignant, attacked
her; maddened by pain, she rushed about,
overturning hive after hive, until the
Incensed occupants of a dozen were war
ring on her. Biie was stung to death.
In the farmhouse sit Hartzell and his
wife, each with face, neck and bonds
puffed to enormous size, and both up
plying witch hazel and other cooling lo
tions to their wounds. Valorously but
Indiscreetly they had rushed to the re
lief of poor, misguided Bossy; the bees,
taking them for anew enemy, set ui>on
them with such fury that they were glad
to escajH? before sharing the fate of the
COW'.
On the Delaware river, the farm is
known as Hartzell's Ferry. The owner
has many head of cattle und none l did he
prize more than the Jersey. He has many
thousands of bees, too. in a colony on a
remote part of the farm. In some vv.iy
the Jersey got out of her pasture* yes
terday and started on m tour of inspec -
tion. It %ve Just her unlucky fate tha*
led her to the bee colony.
It may be that a bee stung the intruder;
il may. be one o 1 many things that caused

her to kick a hive, which toppled over,
ami the next instant the bees were all
over her. Bellowing in her agony, the
cow rushed about madly, endeavoring to
shake off the enemy; she only succeeded
In upsetting the other hives and bringing
to her assailants reinforcements by the
thousands. The poor brute was in fearful
agony, for there were myriads of the
bees, and each appeared anxious to avenge
the Indignity that had been offered to
them.
Mrs. Hartzell was Hip first to learn of
the cow's trouble, and allhough she knew
of the habits of the bees, she rashly rush
ed Into the very midst of the fray, her
face, neck and hands ' unprotected. She
was stung severely before she turned and
ran back to the house. When she reap
peared it was with a big pan, which she
beat vigorously with a wash stick. Had
the bees been hiving this sound would
have nonlhed them; hut the noise had no
other effect than to bring Hartzell on
the run from another part of Ihe farm
Rushing to the house he got several
yards of mosquito netting, which he flung
over his head and hands; then he did the
seme for his. wife and fogfther they went
to the cow’s assistance. The Jersey by
this time was exhausted; she was on the
ground, rolling from side ro side In the
endeavor to rid herself of the pests, who
were as vicious as ever.
Thousands of them turned on the farm
er ami his wife, who found fhe gauze
neting little protection from the stings.
Both trl<4 (lie old experiment of hold
ing the breath, the idea being that this
Closes the pores of the skin, and Inasmuch
ns the bees, It is said, can fnsert their
slings only In n pore, they I d be ren
dered powerless lo do harm; but, as many
other:: before them, they soon learned this
was no more than a superstition.
Pulling a match from his pocket, Har4-
z 11 gathered enough dry grass to make
a fire, and on the first puff of smoke the
bees began 10 retire. Soon there were
so few of them that Hartzell was able to
gc4 thp cow to her feet and led her uway.
Some of the bees still clung to her. so
he took her to the river and by Immers
ing hrr freed her of the Insects. Every
thing that could be done for her was re
sorted to, hut her Injuries were fatal and
she soon died.

and his wife will be able lo go about
