Mrs. Anthony Drexel, junor, who will be godmother, has ordered a striking frock for the occasion. It is of clinging gold and violet brocade with gold stripes, giv ing a swathed effect around the figure. A belt f the new shade of pinkish red is worn with it, and there is an effective embroidery of autumnal leaves on the corsage and reappearing on the skirt. The guests who will travel by special train will include many Americans. Andrew Carnegie and Herbert Asquith, walking arm in arm, was the interesting spectacle seen In .the gardens of Skibo castle recently. The British premier, with his wife and daughter, Elizabeth, had motored over to spend an hour with the Carnegie, and the afternoon sunshine at tracted the party into Skibo's splendid gardens. 3 BOYS CONVICTED OF SLAYING IN ROW IN CHICAGO SALOON CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—Three boys, I Benjamin Nadolskt, 17, Thomas Bro mand. 17. and Harry Jacoby, 20. were | found guilty today of the murder of I John Engle ■ saloonkeeper.

Sept. 26.—Fifty Chinese soldiers who set out with a wagon train of rice from Nlngpo to relieve some of the hundreds of thousands of starving persons in the eastern half of Cheang province, which was recently swept by I a typhoon, have disappeared and it is believed they were killed and eaten. A telegram received here today from Nlngpo states that a missionary who has just returned there from the Ngeu river valley, after incredible hardships, reports that famishing men and women have been turned to cannibals by star vation. Floods which followed the ty phoon washed away their crops and drowned their live stock. Along the coast in the low-lying country circling the bay of £how. a tidal wave killed thousands and their bodies are strewn upon the beaches, save where they were washed out into the sea. No hopes remain that the band of soldiers escaped death. Mutiny, which was afterward quelled, broke out among the soldiers when they were or dered Into the zone of desolation to do grave duty." The soldiers feared death from pestilence If they ventured into the storm-swept districts, where thousands of bodies had lain In the open since the floods went, down, ten days ago.

ENDRMDUSSALES LOWERGDTEON One Hundred Thousand Bales Sold in First Hour—Senti ment Bearish. YORK. Sept. 26.—Selling of cot ton which had been bought yesterday on the supposition that frost would prevail over the eastern belt, came out at the opening of the cotton market today, with the result that the list ranged from un changed to 4 points below last night’s close. The tone was firm. After the call there was further selling, which de pressed prices about 6 points under last night s close. cont inued general and heavy throughout the morning session and it was estimated that fully 100,000 bales were thrown upon the market. It’s very hard to say where this cotton came from, but the general belief is that the bear element is endeavoring to get the market in lower levels to enable them to take on a vast amount of cheap cotton and large orders Til ere cast upon the market on the theory that much money had been lost in previ ous years in purchasing cotton on frost Where this cotton went to it’s verv dHTlcult to say who absorbed it, but it is believed spot interests took a great quan tity of it. After this precipitant selling wave the market steadied and prices worked back toward the opening. December and January displayed the most weakness. December dropped from H-i to while January fell from 11.&2 to 11.43. The remaining positions followed the decline moderately. There was little or nothing doing in the market during the afternoon, while fluctuations were narrow with prices an aggregate of * to 7 points from the opening. There seemed to be a good demand for cotton on all declines, which was a dominating factor for the firmly maintained prices. During the last half hour of trading re newed selling pressure prevailed and prices slumped hack into the low levels with October going to 11.02. At the close the market was steady with prices a net loss of 16 to 23 points from the final fig ures of Wednesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. Sept 26 -The weight of supplies and the indifference on the part of consumers seem to outweigh for the present bullish weather and crop developments. Liverpool again came in dull and easy, with spots 1 point lower. New York support also seemed absent, for that market opened lower In spite of bad weather news, and caused a corre sponding decline here in December to 11.51. New York reports an unfavorable technical condition of the market, absence of speculative short interest and gives this as a reason for the lack of support by hull operators The weather, however, is so bad that pressure against bull interests was not very pronounced and the market rallied and settled around 11.56 for December. The map shows fair weather in Texas and north Oklahoma, and cloudy else where. I’nusually low temperatures in the northwestern quarter. General rains in south Texas and the central states; no rain and seasonable temperatures in the eastern states Heavy to killing frost was reliably reported from many points in Oklahoma, with temperatures of 32 de grees. Indications are for a slight rise in tem peratures. in the Northwest, but colder and more rain for the central and east ern belt. Some storm formation is shown in the east Gulf, but the cold wave over the belt is likely to control it and keep it out of the belt. There is no longer any doubt that the Oklahoma crop lias been considerably cut down by the cold wave Full facts will only be known In a few days.

REPORT SHOWS 17,673,294 BALES OF COTTON FOR 1911-12 WASHINGTON. Sept 26.—A cotton re i port issued today by the census bureau shows the total supply for the year end- I ing August 31, 1912. to have been 17,673,294 I running bales. Stocks at the beginning of the year i were 1.375,031 bales; ginnings 16,068,987, land imports 229.276. The distribution was 10,681,758 bales ’exported; 5,367,671 consumed and 1,623,- 865 stocks held. Manufacturers stocks were 871.293 I hales. Active cotton spindles were 30,- 1312,730, of which 11,585,938 were in cotton* I gr< wing states and 18,726.691 in all other states. NEWS AND GOSSIP Os the Fleecy Staple NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—Carpenter, Bag got & Co.: A special report to The Jour nal of Commerce said: “Mississippi sea son still about three weeks late and an early frost would considerably shorten the yield. 801 l weevils very numerous ami much damage inflicted, together with the army worm, which seriously impaired top crop prospects. Dry weather and army worms chief cause of shedding, hut little loss has occurred from this source. Sev eral jioints in percentage condition have been lost during the month. Crop only about 13 per cent picked, against 28 per cent, against 17 per cent two years ago. 'Louisiana—Worms and boll weevils, accompanied by hot weather, have caused considerable deterioration and very much lessened prospects of a top crop. Foliage badly stripped and bolls are exposed. Condition considerably below last month, but probably better than last year when it was 61.2 and 49.3 year before. Percent age picked is roughly 32 per cent, against -16 last year and 38 two years ago." Anticipations prevail that frost will not be detrimental to cotton to a great extent. Dallas wires: “Texas clear to part cloudy and cold, Amarillo 38; light frost; no other frost reported; 42 i’aris, 46 Dal las, 42 Henrietta. Oklahoma clear and cold: heavy frost at New Kirk, Caching, Chandler, Sayre, Clinton and Oklahoma. Division of Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad, Bartlesville to Oklahoma City, light frosts, Osage. Bristow.” There has been fully a hundred thou sand hales of cotton thrown on the mar ket this morning. This cotton has been taken by somebody and it Is believed by spot people. After the heavy wave of selling was over the market responded easily to little buying. There is no question of heavy frosts in Oklahoma and will be followed by more tonight. This we must not overlook, it is very early for such cold w-eather and is a forerunner of what we may expect in a very short while. Reports of deterioration continue to come in and there is no question that the crop is much smaller than many believe. Spot demand continues good and in the face of this demand and the very unfa vorable weather conditions we may ex pect a higher market. Following are 11 a. in. bids: October, 11.19; December, 11.50; January, 11.49; March. 11.63. NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 26.—Hayward & Clark: The weather map shows fair in north Texas and Oklahoma; cloudy else where. Unusually low temperature in north Texas and Oklahoma; 44 at Fort Worth, 36 at Oklahoma City. General rains in central states; heavy at several points. Indications are for slightly warm er weather in the northwest, but colder and more rain in central and eastern states. Some storm formation in east gulf, but cold wave is likely to keep it out. Waco, Texas, wires: “Cotton fields in central Texas spotted in many sections, particularly in Ellis, Hilt! and McLellan counties. Extremely light top crop is present prospect for that section. Farm ers selling fast as crop is ginned. Com presses in north and central Texas con gested; look for heavier receipts at Gal veston. A light frost prevailed at Amarillo, Texas, last night. The temperature stood at 38; no other frost reported in Texas. Dallas. Texas, temperature was 46 Party in Hobart. Okla., wires: "Heavy frost in bottoms; light frost uplands; some ice over western Oklahoma.'* The New Orleans Times-Democrat says: Both factions continue drawing cold com fort only from the cotton market. At the moment the weather is working against the big crop people, while all along thus far this season restricted demand from spinners has been working against the high price folk. In the broader aspect the general situation does not seem to be undergoing any potential change, unless frosts are to curtail the yield, but in the immediate aspect the ramifications of a rather complicated environment are con stantly shifting. Yesterday's promise of frost in portions of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas, it is reasonable to suppose, brings the crop nearer the date of killing frost, particu larly so since the cold snap weaves are coming with striking frequency, it would be folly to assume that an early killing frost would not curtail the yield in Okla homa, Arkansas and Texas, at least to some extent. Even now some spot people in Oklahoma express concern in this con nection. On the other hand, port stocks are piling up with startling rapidity and now exceed those at this time last year by some 99,500 bales in spite of smaller receipts to date by some 67,600 bales. Following are 10 a. nt. bids: October, 11.42: December, 11.58; January, 11.04; March, 11.72. Estimated receipts Friday: 1912. 1911 New Orleans 1,500 to 2,500 3,188 Galveston 22.500 to 24.500 23,068 COTTON MARKET OPINIONS. Logan & Bryan: “The selling seems to come from spot houses who have selling orders in the way of hedges.” Bailey & Montgomery: “It is unlikely there can be any permanent decline until danger of freeze in some sections is pub lished." J. S. Bache * Co.: “We advise extreme caution in going long at this price.” .Miller & Co.: “We continue bullish, es pecially favoring December." Hayden, Stone & Co.: “Should frost fail to materialize the market will prob ably be called upon to absorb a consider able volume of cotton." THE WEATHER - CONDITIONS. WASHINGTON, Sept 26—1'nsettled weather continues over the Eastern and Southern states, according to the weath er bureau, and indications are there will be showers tonight in the lower Lake region, the extreme upper Ohio valley and eastern Tennessee.

IRREGULARITYIN | STOCKS IT CLOSE Market Steadies on Lack of Sufficient Supply of Money, Postponing Manipulation. By CHARLES W. STORM. NEW YORK. Sept. 26 Although first prices were generally above last night's close, a selling movement developed im mediately after the opening of the stock exchange today, which in some instances turned the advances into losses. Much of the selling was said to repre sent profit-taking. United States Steel common, after beginning % higher, lost %• Amalgamated Copper was 1-4 higher at the start, but this gain was later reduced to '.c, Canadian Pacific made about the best initial spurt, rising a full point, but within fifteen minutes it had lost %. American Smelting was % 'ip and fluc tuated around that price. Southern Pa cific was % higher at the commence ment, hul slumped. Baltimore and Ohio was % higher, but later lost it. Traders were of the opinion that the rise in call monev rates was chiefly re sponsible for the bearish trend. The curb market was steady. Americans in London were firm. Price movements in the late forenoon were Irregular. A number of the leading railroads and industrials were under pressure and sustained fractional losses. A few of the copper shares were under pressure. The stock market closed heavy; gov ernments unchanged; other bonds sternly.

Sept. 26.—There were further price recessions of %(ft% in wheat this I morning caused by the lack of support ( front all of the interests which have been in the market on the bull side for some time. Corn was %c higher to %'Jj) %c lower, with the strength shown in September on shorts covering. Oats wer off %ift %c in sympathy with wheat anfl hog products were fractionally lower and slow. Wheat closed about %c lower, which was about %c better than the low point for the day. A slow milling demand in the winter wheat markets and bearish foreign advices were the main weakening factors. Absence of export demand and favorable weather helped. A rally oc curred late in the session from the bot tom levels on buying by shorts to secure profits. Corn closed with prices ranging from % to %c lower. Liquidation by longs was the main feature. Oats were off % to %c. This market followed wheat and corn. _ Provisions were inclined to follow grain. The January products were firmer because of the talk of frost and crop losses in the corn belt. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. Grain quotations: Previous Open. High. Low. Close. Closs.
