18 ■NHL MPS CLINEINC SKIRTS “Even Ordinary Men in Street Are Disgusted With Wom en’s Dress.” He Says. VIENNA. Aug 10.—Considerable in dignation has been caused among wom en in Vienna by the utterances of the patriarch cardinal, Cavallarf. After making a long quotation from the words of St. Peter on feminine vanities, the cardinal, in a recent ser mon. said: "The extravagance of women’s dress has reached such a point today that even men —I don’t spenk of Christians, but the ordinary men in the street — feel disgusted. "Allow me to tell you what indecent clothing is. 1 consider that dresses which permit the arms and a great part of the neck to be seen, or in which they are only slightly covered with lace or transparent materials, are indece.nt. Further, skirts which cling to the form may be regarded as indecent and as likely to destroy all feelings of natural mod esty. “How can respectable women appear in public thus arrayed? I declare for my part that I will not permit women so bedecked to attend confirmation, either as spectators or as godparents to the children. I possess the right to exclude everj' person who thus shows her want of respect for the Holy Sac rament.” 300 DEM FROM QUAKE IN TURKEY Great Disaster Throughout the Empire From Yesterday’s Seismic Shock.

CHICAGO, 1T.1.., Aug 10.—The task of administering a fortune of nearly $2,000,000 has fallen upon the shoul ders of a Chicago woman, who twelve years ago was uneducated and had just commenced a struggle as a bread-win ner. The will of Jacob Baur, president of the Liquid Carbonic Company. was filed for probate, leaving an estate of $1,545,000 to Mrs. Bertha Duppler Baur, his widow . Ten years ago, after two years hard work in a store and by studying at night, Mrs. Baur, then pretty Bertha Duppler, became a stenographer. The job was too purely mechanical for a woman of her genius. She enlarged upon her work. She became secretary to Postmaster Coyne and. earned the largest salary ever paid to a woman in the United States postal service. When Coyne was succeeded by Post master Busse the latter could find no one competent to succeed Miss Duppler as secretary. She was secretary under Busse and again under Postmaster Campbell. She studied law at night and was admitted to practice. She took up art and has painted several notable pic tures. Less than two years ago she married Baur. She then wrote two volumes of verse, widen have received much favorable comment. She recently won a prize for prepar ing the beat meal.

COTTON, LONG SUPPORT,REACTS Market Rallies in Early Trade, But Recedes on Weak Cable Reports . NEW YORK, Aug. 10 Weak cables and favorable weather conditions resulted in the cotton market open.ng 3 to 8 points lower today. During the first few min utes of trading a buying wave prevailed anti prices in the most active positions rallied 4 to 6 points from the early range. During the late trading of the short session the market developed a quiet tone with less active business. The buying wave that prevailed during the early trad ing seemed to check on the weather map indications for favorable weather over Sunday for the larger part of the belt, and prices had a tendency to sag. At the close the market was steady with prices showing a net loss of 7 to 11 points from the final quotations of Friday.

HAYWARD A. CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, Aug. TO Liverpool showed surprising weakness toward the close with futures about 5 points lower than dtie; snots 8 points lower; several cables said the decline was caused by the rumor of an important failure In our mar ket. No one here knows of any failure or even suspicion of one. The rumor is, therefore, unfounded. The weather map shows fair in Oklahoma, in western Ar kansas and the Atlantic coast districts. Generally cloudy elsewhere; good rains In the northern half of Texas; also in the western portion; no rain in the southern half of Texas; general rains in the cen tral ad eastern states; very heavy in north Louisiana and heavy at many stations in north Alabama, Georgia and South Caro lina. Indications are for cloudy, unset tled showery weather, except’ in the northwestern quarter of Florida. which may have fair weather. Precipitation in tlie central and eastern states, except possibly in East Tennessee and North Carolina, should not be as heavy as dur ing the past two days. Our market opened a little easier on the poor Liver pool, but selling was well taken. The demand came from shorts to cover over Sunday and on the belief that rainy weather in central states will bring dam age reports, and also in anticipation of a bullish crop report by The Titnes-Demo crat Monday. Further rainy weather it is thought might make the crop so late that the tilling of August and early Sep tember spot commitments many hold or advance spot prices which are already considerably above future prices. In reply to an inquiry, a well-posted party in south Texas answers that rain Is needed from Taylor sonth, but no harm yet. New York did not encourage the reaction idea, but became weak In the last hour, which led to a loss of all the gain here, October selling back to 11.92. McFadden interests were reported as leading sellers. The weather oxer Sun day will probably affect trading mate rially early next week. Further heavy ami genera! rains would strengthen the belief in damage and late crop, while clearing weather would encourage selling on anticipation of improving crop news and an increase in early receipts.

NEWS AND GOSSIP Of the Fleecy Staple „, X L ; 'V ORLEANS, Aug. 10.—Hayward & Clark: 'The weather map shows fair in Oklahoma and on the Atlantic coast; partly cloudy to cloudy elsewhere; good rains in northern half of Texas; also in west portion. No rain in south Texas. 1 ery heavy rain in north Louisiana. Gen eral rains in central and eastern states; heavy in Georgia, South Carolina and north Alabama. The idea prevails that The Times- Democrat Monday may be bullish, and, combined with government forecast for more rains in central and eastern states, leads to buying following from man at Shreveport: Light rain continues falling, becoming quite serious. Bottom bolls will rot and worms will have full sway." '1 he following letter received late yes terday from our reporter, J. A. Kennedy; "I am now winding up my west Texas trip and will be in north Texas next week. I now estimate that 25 per cent of the entire west and northwest has been covered by local showers during the past ten days, while all the lowland of that section Is as dry as powder and the crop already cut short. I find all the coun try along the Texas and Pacific railroad beginning at Weatherford and running -00 miles west is very dry and the crop is a partial failure, much of the section covered requiring from 5 to 20 acres to produce a bale. "Central and north Texas has received a good rain this week, beginning as low as Corsicana and Temple on the south, and running into Oklahoma. This rain was badly needed and will be of great benefit to the crop over that section of the state. Southwest Texas is still suffer ing from a prolonged drouth, and 1 have very reliable Information that shedding is about as bad in that section as In 1909. "I warn you not to accept exaggerated rain reports with too much credence, as the tendency of many 'real estate boom ers' is to give too much free information of an optimistic character. Some of the Interior exporters are guilty of the same fault.” The New Orleans Times-Demoorat says: Whether scalpers buying in America and selling in Liverpool at the wide differ ence stopped the decline, or whether short sellers paused long enough to review the crop condition effect of recent weather re mains to be seen. It is a fact, how ever. that new' crop deliveries, after a further dip. which carried New Orleans December to 1.1.86, regained some 17 points by the close, and bulls accepted tlie reaction as proof that bearish en thusiasm had run its course, and sup ]H.rto<l the belief with telegrams saving Texas is no showing anything like the Improvement the trade had been led to expect by the multitude of bearish ad vices sent out on the heels of recent rains in the west. On the other hand, low price men frankly adrnited that reactions were logical after a decline of 150 points from the season’s high level, but per sisted in their belief that the trend of the market will continue downward, and supported that belief with the fact that Houston sold 7,450 bales of f. o. b. cot ton. which, they claimed, clearly indi cated the commencement of the new’ crop movement in real earnest.

Aug. 10. —Wheat opened firm in tone today with prices ranging from : 14@lc lower. The August government report was the main bearish factor. Profit-taking by shorts and buying on resting orders caused a slight reaction. Corn was off %0%, at the start, but %@%c of the loss was regained on profit taking. The weather is more favorable and the crop is progressing. Oats were %@lc lower, mostly in sym pathy with the other grains. Provisions were mainly lower despite the fact that hogs were higher at the yard. Lard was the only exception and that commodity ruled steady. Wheat was lower today and final prices showed net declines ranging from %c and %c to %e. To the influence of a bearish government report was added fa vorable weather reports in both spring and winter wheat territory and the ab sence of export, business. Corn advanced %c to %c and showed, considerable strength, holding the best prices fairly well. Oats were irregular, final prices rang ing from %c to %c lower to %c higher, with September the strong spot. Provisions showed but little change. There was an improved cash demand re ported for both meats and lard. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET, Prey. Open. High. Low. Close. Close.
