L The foreign marines In Pekin aa they s'ood guarding the legations must at first have been puttied by a strange sound which seems to come from above. If they glanced skyward they would have seen a crowd of pigeons In gyrations. These are the famous musical p geona of Pekin. The mystery of the aerial sound can be solved If a pigeon Is examined closely. Attached to the tall of the bird la an Instrument called "chao-lse." the word "Vhao" signifying whistling, and •*tse'* meaning meehar.lcal. This peculiar Instru ment is made of email reeds, arranged somewhat like the Pandean pipes, and It I* sufficiently light not to Interfere with the flight of the bird. The 'chao-tse" 1* attached to the tall between the two middle feathers, and held In Me position by a tittle allck pasyed through the back of the Instrument. Dur ing the pigeon'* rapid flight the air pass es through the reed* with such a force that thrill whistles are constantly re peated These whistle* were Invented because of the unsanitary condition of Pekin A hawk rejoicing In the name of Mateo po- Uogenys Is tlw- only scavenger bird of Chi na. and it persistently endeavors to de atroy all pigeons that come within reach of It# claws The bird of prey cannot be killed or Pekin would have an accumu lation of refuse that woo'd not argue well for th* health of the city; and. on th* other hand, th* Chinese are too fond of their pigeons to allow them to be the hawks' victims So some gifted mandarin Invented the "chao-tse." which by Its not## frightens carrion b rd* away. A myriad of whittling pigeons fly dally about Pekin. Th# nolee they make is far from being unpleasant —"A man can't back down de ladder o' success, roun' by roun'. de same way he climbed." said Uncle Eben.

Instead of ihe 507 points advance expected, loiter, how ever, the English market gave way. and closed feverish with Ihe r.et decline re duced to 46104-614. Our market made a reluctant response, opening at an advance of 9616 points after which there was n break of £0 points on R.-ptemher. and 21 to 45 point* on the remainder of the list. The situation had some support from eleventh hour public buying, but the larg er local trader* were Inclined to realise If not to sell for short account. Natur ally, the trade wa* cautious; as the new* from Texas faihd lo give positive Infor mation regarding the extent of damage ! from the late disastrous sterm. Respect ing this feature view* here were Inclined to be more conservative than heretofore A* a rule crop accounts were fairly fa vorable. By noon the trading level was some 8 to 12 points lower as compared with the closing of the previous day. The course of the market later wa* varied with weikness. the most conspicuous feature Liquidation became active following re port* that Liverpool shorts had effected a rettlement nnd that the damage to the crop In Texas by the late stirm would no* exceed 16).061 bales The early after noon government report provtd bullish a* expected, but did not long arrest the downward course of prices.

Sept. U.-Tba cotton market waa feverlah to-day and price* were Ir regular, but they soon strengthened un der Ihe Influence of the advance in price* in New York and unfavorable American crop report*. The spinners and manufac turer* have been buoyed with hopes that a good crop would ensure prosperous bus iness tn 1961. but the diminished crop prospects and the delay In exportation* from Galveston have aroused grave anx iety and are likely to lead 10 serious flnanct.it difficulties among Ihe trad*. The early cablegrams caused a gloomy impression respecting the effect of the hurricane on the Texas crop Loiter mes sage*. of a tnoi e encouraging character, showed that the damage done was lo quality rather than to quantity: and the lone of the market showed a distinct Im provement. The destruction of shipping at Galveston may reduce the volume of caily deliveries, thus affecting .Lancashire.
