BULL FIGHTING 15
LUCRATIVE SPORT
Spanish Toreadors Live at the
Best Hotels and Wear Most
Cosily English Clothes.
MADRID. Oct. 8. There is probably
no sport in the world so lucrative as
that of Spain’s national sport, bull
fighting, ar.d the statement that there
are 23 famous toreadors who earn an
nually 31.000,600 is by no means exag
gerated.
In Madrid one finds the toreador, the
fairy prince of the senorlta. at the
Hotel Inglez elbowing rich English and
’nirr’,can visitors. If ■> .’ls. « e'ti «'»h
friends he will Invariably choose the
'-il room,’ tile meeting place of tne
Spanish aristocracy and foreign diplo
mats. When he visits a theater he
must have the best box In the house.
He smokes the very best cigars, and
not the traditional petlllos (home
made cigarettes) so dear to the Span
iard He drinks the choicest wines
from southern Spain or France's fa
mous champagnes. He is also most
fastidious In his fashions, wearing the
best of English clothes.
Indeed, so jealous is he of his per
sonal appearance that he employs a
special coiffeur, who calls on him every
morning and helps him to hide his
oo'.eta. the diminutive pig-tail, beneath
'i'ually heavy crop of black hair.
His nails are also delicately man!-
lest their rough appearance
S’.oifid mar the brilliancy of the prlce-
■ • ss diamonds which his standing as a
toreador compels him to wear.
He is withal a solid and serlous
r-cr'l-d man. He never smiles. His
. <• hns !I 'a<ie him a stoic, and his
ne reserves for the ring.
He is also the most religious of mor
a ;,n> late * n Spain. It is. in
fieed. curious to see him invoking the
, n t '' r ’ , ession of heaven before taking up
• s place in the procession and march
ing Into the arena.
He is likewise most superstitious.

JERUSALEM WILL
BE MODERN GIFT
Electric Lighting. Trolleys, and
Systems of Waterworks
Nearly Completed.
PARIS, Oct. B.—A Syrian journal
gives some interesting details of the
industrial development of Jerusalem,
which, according to the paper, will be
fore long be one of the most up-to
date and comfortable towns in the near
East.
A large number of companies, financ
ed by European capital, have, it is
stated, recently been applying for con
cessions with a view to organizing the
public services on a modern basis.
An English company which is erect
ing a large power station will soon
supply electric current all over the city.
Even the sacred hill will before long
be lighted with electricity.
A complete new system of tramways
is under construction by a French com
pany, while a German concern is lay
ing mains for a house to house water
supply.
To complete the international char
acter of the modernization of Jerusa
lem, a series of fire stations with more
fire engines and ladders is being insti
tuted under Austrian management.
CENTRAL ASKS MACON TO
WAIT A WHILE FOR DEPOT
MACON, GA., Oct. B.—The Central oi
Georgia railroad, through Vice Pres
ident W. A. Winburn, has asked for
more time from the Macon citizens who
are agitating the building of new pas
senger stations here. In a letter to A.
J. Long, chairman of the depot com
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce, it
is stated by Mr. Winburn that Macon
is certainly going to get a new depot,
but he asks that his railroad be allowed
ample time in which to complete delib
erations over the plans.
Notwithstanding, citizens who have
signed the petition to the railroad com
mission will press their complaint.

was arrested today on a charge of murder
and confessed.

IN COTTON PRICE
Spinners’ Support and Short
Covering Dominating Fac
tors for Steady Market.
NEW YORK. Oct. B.—Active covering,
due to the failure of cables to reflect
fully yesterday's weakness here, caused
the cotton market to open steady today,
prices 2 to 7 points higher. So i:e of the
commission houses also were good buyers
and at the end of fifteen minutes the
market had increased its gain from 9
to 10 points.
Liverpool was a good buyer here.
During the late forenoon trading the
market became unsettled and specula
tors here and also in New Orleans began
to liquidate, which was said to be selling
on continued good weather and favorable
reports on the crop, and prices started
on a downward move, losing 5 to 9 points
in most active positions from the early
range and receding 1 to 3 points below
the previous close.
Later during the afternoon session, spot
interests and commission houses renewed
their aggressiveness, bringing about a ral
ly of a few points. The buying of spin
ners was said to be the only stimulant,
to the market. Sentiment continues very
bearish and scattered short interests
seem to be increasing. The bulls seem
to he awaiting the frost period, and it
is being anticipated to come early, which
would doubtedly bring about a good rally.
At the close the market was steady with
prices a net advance of 7 to 10 points
from the final quotations of Monday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. B.—Liverpool
shows more steadiness with futures about
3 better than due. Spot sales large, 12,-
000 bales, at 8 points lower for quota
tions. The weather map shows cloudy io
the western states; fair in the rest of the
belt. General rains in north Texas and
Oklahoma; no rain elsewhere. Indica
tions are for general rains coming on
the western states and warmer today,
followed by a cold wave moving on north
Texas and Oklahoma by Thursday or Fri
day. Increasing cloudiness today in the
central states. Generally fair in the east
ern belt.
Our market opened a little higher on
the better Liverpool, but there was no
sustained demand or support. The two
considerations, European politics and
prospects for bad weather, offset each
other. Then again, bad weather, with
out reducing the quantity, is considered
an additional bearish factor, inasmuch as
it is argued that low grade American cot
ton at present prices can not compete
with this season's large Indian crop and
its cheaper price.
Our lower grades may continue to he
neglected in demand and finally weigh on
the future market. The market felt the
absence of steady support in the first
hour, and prices sagged 10 points from
the opening figures.

READING STOCK
HEAVILY BOUGHT
Uncertainty of Foreign Situa
tion and Decrease in Public
Buying Cause Dullness.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Oct. B.—Despite cabled
information that war had begun in the
Balkans, the stock market, which is
usually the first to suffer from such an
nouncement. bore up with a surprisingly
firm tone at the opening today. Among
the opening gains were United States
Steel common %, Amalgamated Copper
'2, Erie common %. Lehigh Valley 1 .,.
Missouri Pacific Reading %. Atchi
son, Union Pacific and American Smelt
ing each lost, %. Southern Railway and
Pennsylvania were unchanged.
The curb market was firm.
in the late forenoon the tone was
steady. Many issues made fractional
gains on good buying by room traders.
The cqal stocks were active and a firm
tone was shown in the Hill stocks.
At the end of fifteen minutes a num
ber of the stocks which opened higher
had lost part of their gains. The tone
had lost some of its strength also.
Americans in London were heavy. Can
adian Pacific there suffered from selling
for the Paris and Berlin accounts.

CHICAGO, Oct. B.—Wheat was %c to

for heavy reveipts up there.
Corn was %c to %c higher on the ad
vances at Liverpool, smaller receipts there
and a strong spot market.
Oats were %c to %c better on shorts
covering, coupled with the strength in
wheat and corn.
Hog products were a shade easier, along
with the weakness in hogs at the yards.

BULLS EXPECT SUFFICIENT
ABSORPTION FOR DEC. CORN
CHICAGO, Oct. 8. The Inter-Ocean
says :
“It was the gossip of the wheat pit that
Cut ton covered a good sized line through
Kidston, and that shorts came in through
different brokers in the last half hour.
'l’he disposition of the conservative traders
is to sell <in bulges. Bulls in corn say
that unless there is a big Increase in
the movement this month there will be
little accumulation, as liberal sales have
been made to go out before November 1.
Hull sentiment centers in December on
the theory that unless there is dry weath
< r there will be little contract corn here
that m<»nth. and they expect all new
corn will find ready buyers?’
BEARISH U. S. REPORT
ON GRAIN EXPECTED
CHICAGO. Oct. 8. The government re
port tomorrow is likely to show small
change from last month in corn indica
tion. as the information was gathered be
fore the effect of frost was evident.
The yield per acre of spring wheat is
likely to be a bushel or more above the
August indication, making a crop around
325.000,000 bushels. The yield of oats will
probably be 3 or 4 bushels above indica
tion of last month and will make a crop
above 1.409,000.
