FROST WAS EARLY COTTON CROP LATE New Sun York, October 1 12 The says: It was a frost market. Ing froat occurring In tbo Atlantic, Gulf ami central sections of the belt, ns well ns some parts of Oklahoma, aud the Indian Territory. The natural Inference from the frosts of late Is that the growth of the green, sappy plant has been checked over a large area of territory and the yield thereby materially curtailed. Killing froat nt this early date, about two weeks «*dler than usual, coming lu a season which la on the whole a fortnight late, is a factor In the situation whose Importance It would be unwise to Ignore, especially In n yeor when the dry goods trade Is so dis tinctly prosperous, and when, to all ap- jwarances, the world's consumption of American cotton will be very large, possi bly, Indeed, larger than erer before. The advance. It Is true, has been rapid aud this discounts much, but If the crop esti mates recently bo popular among certain of tho trade of 13.060,000 bales or more, prove to be 1.000,000 to 1.500,000 bales too large, the advance In prices might go much further. There Is a strong bull following In New Orleans nnd also In Liverpool, and some nrofe&sionala here. Including some who, for a considerable period were short, have now taken the other tack, although there are aotue who persistently fought the advance, maintaining that the crop has suf fered no serious harm. New Orleans, Oct. 12.—The Tlmes-Demo- ernt says: An abnormally early frost when the crop is abnormally late spells trouble for somebody. Anyway the talent took this view of the situation ond the cotton market •sored another sharp rtse yesterday, spot cotton advancing to lie nnd the Ileeem- her option touching the high level of 11.30. Quire naturally the demand ' ** stuff expanded and sellers d seek buyers either.

Thus, with reserves dwindling, with ex porters In some considerable doubt ns to the fate of nt least a portlou of the cotton promised them, aud with the grade on a lot of* cotton lowered by unfavorable weather, current vs lues continue to appear smell enough, the cliff dweller having i“ appeared lu all the glory of his gold dreams.

As soon as the terms of the treaty of Utrecht (1713) were known, France began fortifying her one naval depot on thla continent—Louisburg, the “Gibral tar of America." For twenty-live years the work went on. Over six millions of dollars were spent. The beat engi neers In the world taxed their wits to the utmost to make the tortreaa Im pregnable. In 1744 the long peace between Eng land and France came to an end, and the next year Govarpar ( S|)lr|ey, ,pf Massachusetts, somehow got hold of "one of the most nudAcfoua conceptions that aver entered tho brain of man.” The conception was none other than that of the capture of Louisburg. On March 24. 1748. the fleet, with some forty- nve hundred men and thlr- ty-flve cannon, act sail from Nantasket Roads; and by the 80th of April they were ready for business at Louliburg. The army was largaly recruited from unemployed fishermen In the sea const towns of New England, and wae com manded by one william Pepmrell, a Maine lumberman, who carried on. along with hla lumber getting, a large mercantile buelnees at hla home In Klt- tery. Pepparell was rich and had Iota of brain*, but he wan Woefully Illiterate nnd knew absolutely nothing about things military. Rut he could fight, and to the tjaek of taking the Gibraltar of America he applied hltneolf with dogged resolution. With hla resolute New Englanders ha took one after anothar of the lines of defenee, "until on the l(th of June, 1748, the great fortress actually sur- renderad to the assemblage of farmers and flsharmen, led by the lumber mer chant, and Peppered had the satisfac tion of receiving the key* of Louisburg in his hand." • Now York, Oot. 12.—This moxningla market resembled very closely In all its main characteristics the markets of the earlleet days ot the week. Again the buying sought out particular stocks and carried them upward, while the rest of tho list was left to bear realiz ing sales aa best It conld. Under these circumstances the movement was ex tremely Irregular.' At the opening prices went pretty generally higher, but after that the process of selci tli n began. The Steel shares, Smelters, Baltimore and Ohio and St. Paul wu: pushed upward and considers!..■ strength appeared at times In Bmdlug and Copper. On tho other hnnd, tho Pacific shares broke sharply after tln-ir early advance, and, together with Penn sylvania and Erie and other leaders, were heavy throughout the rest ot the morning.
