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. I'.'

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. PUTS POISONI iN BEER FOR FLIRTING WIFE; SHE’S DEAD MACON, GA., Oct. B.—At a party last night Henry Bowden, a negro, observed his wife flirting with another man. He went out surreptitiously and purchased an ounce of carbolic acid.

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. RANGE OF NEW YORK FUTUrtes. C S- ® < O «> be S m 2. 8 og £- - O ala 2.

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. RANGE IN NEW ORLEANS FUTUFIES. c I x: 4 £ I > S 4> I bO f ® 4 SI S 5 C &C Oct.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat’s summary: With the remnant of the bull brigade calling themselves donkeys, -with the bear crowd successful, growing in numbers and enthusiastic, and with most everybody howling on t4ie heels of the market, the price outlook does not appear promising, of course, the market in its flight may turn and bite somebody, and then again the consumer may step in quietly and under the cover of bearish joy (‘over his own requirement well inic the future, leaving the speculative short seller of trad: hedges to work things cut at his leisure. Meanwhile, the weather is excellent, helpful instead of hurtful. As a matter of fact, promised cold weathef not only has not come, but in its placs has come Indian summer of the idea! sort, all of which has braced up the low | price enthusiast in a remarkable way < During weeks past, the bear has had slack demand for the actual as an incent ive to sell contracts, but day after dat the promise of an early fall w'ith growth terminating temperatures lias. In a meas use at least, checked his desire to pile a short interest against an expected day when weight of actual cutton will tell its own story. ' But that good weather has scattered his fears and shattered bullish hopes, those elements which have been contributing support are being more and more elimi nated. Consumers will not buy on a de clining market when stocks are pilling up. At least this has been the trade ex perience until last year when spinners’ need was very acute. This year the spin ners can afford a far more independent at titude than last year because be holds more American cotton and because the crops other than American promise an abundant supply.

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. Stock quotations: I | |Last|Prev STOCKS— |H_igh;Low’. Sale.lCl'se Antal. Copper - 91% :0 ; .7 90% Amer.

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.
