AN UNSETTLED
DAY IN COTTON
New York Close Was Steady
at Net Loss of Three to
Eight Points.
New York.—The cotton market was
unsettled today with prices easing off
under a renewal of old crop liquidation
and reports of good showers in the
Carolinas. The close was steady but
at a net loss of three to eight points.
There were quite a good many over
night selling orders at the start and the
opening was at a decline of eight to
eleven points on the old crop and of one
to four on new* crop deliveries. Rela
tively weak cables encuraged the selling
V'&yement but offerings were well taken
b\sng to prospects for continued clear
hot Weather over the greater part of the
South.
Old crop positions rallied to about last
night’s closing figures while the new
crop sold four or five points net higher
on covering and fresh buying for long
account. This advance encountered con
siderable selling pressure, however and
some of the same brokers who had been
very heavy sellers late yesterday on the
Chicago bank news were sellers again.
There was also a good deal of scattered
realizing for over the week-end while
better weather reports from the Caro
linas may have inspired some local
pressure. The market broke sharply
with old crop months selling eleven to
twelve points under yesterday’s closing
f’gurVs while later deliveries showed net
losses of five to six points. A slight
rally followed on covering but the mar
ket closed within a point or two of the
lowest on new crop positions. The sup
ply and distribution figures of the cen
sus bureau may have inspired some of
the old crop selling. Detailed weather
reports showed good showers In North
Carolina and fair showers in Georgia.
Alabama and Louisiana but forty-nine
stations east of the river showed max
imum temperatures Gs 100 degrees or
over.

Result of Fairly Good Rains in
Eastern Belt and Falling Off
in Consumption.
New Orleans. —The cotton market had
a downward tendency on the week-end
session as the result of faivly good rains
in portions of the eastern belt and the
falling off in consumption of cotton by
American mills during May, *as compared
with the same month last year. Liberal
buying orders from the long side met the
decline and kept the market steady but
offerings were suficient to put prices
four to six points under yesterday’s fi
nals. The close was at a net loss of
two to five points.
A flurry of selling around the opening
balled forth heavy buying orders, said
to come from prominet interests. The
forecast of fair weather for the belt, ex
cept for thunder showers in the Caro
linas, was a help to the long side for a
while but the detailed reports, showing
rain at nine out of the ten stations in
the Wilmington district and 'scattered
show'ers elsewhere in the East, gave
hears the hope that the drouth was at
least to be ended. These offerings fi
nally broke the market.

WEEK IN COTTON
New York.—The cotton market has
been less active during the past week
and fluctuations have been Irregular, but
Rince the reaction of some 40 to 50 points
from the recent high level, prices have
worked higher on a moderate trade de
mand, renewed bull support and cover
ing. December contracts sold at 12.98
today or about 38 points above the low
level reached on the break of last Mon
day and within 12 points of the hgh
record for the season. Improving weath
er and crop accounts from the western
belt have encouraged selling but there
has been little or no Indication of
Southern offerings here against pros
pective crops, and, as the scattering long
Interest accumulated Inst month had
been materially reduced on the break
of the previous week, there was not
much pressure against the market. At
any rate, contracts were r<gidl!y absorb
ed, and toward the end of the week the
trade showed Increasing nervousness
over new crop prospects east of the riv
er, owing to continued dry weather In
most sections and reports of extremely
high temperatures.
Aside from Immediately prevailing
crop conditions, bultlshly disposed opera
tors continue to emphasise the unfavor
able start as reflected In the Initial con
dition figures, and some think there has
been as much buying on the fear of un
favorable weather later In the season
and a generally bun ~h view of require
ments as on any particular Item In the
week's news. In some circles there Is
a disposition to compare eastern bell
prospects with the bumper crop year of
1911, as May and June weather condi
tions to date have been somewhat simi
lar hut the recent government report
showed a very much less favorable start
In the eastern belt states than at the
corresponding date three years ago, and
unfavorable private reports from this
section have been more numerous while
there have also been some reports oi
acreage abandonment or heat damage to
a sappy plant from west of the river.

PIET END IN
WEEK’SJTOCKS
Downward Movement General.
Small Changes at Close of
Saturday’s Trading.
■ ■ 11, i ■ \
\
New York.—The weok’s trading in
stocks came to an end today as quietly
as it began. Seldom has Wall street
seen six successive days in which spec
ulative interest was at a lower ebb. Less
than 40,000 shares were dealt in today.
At the opening prices eased off. The
only aparent reason was the lower range
of quotations from London. The down
ward movement was general, but was of
small proportions. Later demand ex
panded and the list made up its opening
losses. At the end of the day changes
were trivial.
The week’s record total of gold en
gagements for export was increased to
day by the booking of $4,000,tH)0. It
became known also that arrangements
had been made tentatively for engage
ment of $4,000,000 or $11,000,000 on Mon
day. The abnormally high sterling ex
change weakened The bank state
ment showed the expected loss as a re
sult of the gold movement, amounting
to $7,690,000.
The weekly trade reviews were in
keeping with the more optimistic senti
ment which haß been evident of lat.
The doubtful outlook for payment of
the July interest on St. Louis & San
Francisco refunding 4s caused active
selling of the bonds, which sagged to
68 1-2. This is a loss of 4 1-2 on the
week.
Total sales, bonds, (par value) .$982,-
000.
United States bonds, unchanged on call

WEEK IN FINANCE
New York.—Strong bullish Influences
were brought to hear on the stock mar -
Jet this week but trading continued to
*>• “UR with unusually narrow fluctua
tions. The undertone was firm moat
of the time but the demand was poor
and In spite of (he scarcity of slocks no
response was made to favoring develop
ments. Of these perhaps the moat Im
portant were the government's crop re
peat on conditions at the end of Mny arid
the Shreveport rate decision. Passage
by the senate of the canal tolls repeal
bill was accounted an Influence In favor
of railroad shares. Progress of the
Mexican mediation conference In spits
of fears of a rupture once or twice dur
ing the week encouraged operation* on
•he long side. One of the foremost
factors In sustaining the market was
the expectation of a decision before
many days In the freight rates case.
The United States Steel tonnage fig
ures Indicated Hint new buslneas during
May had been at the rate of less than
half the corporation's capacity.
The export movoment of gold .reached
extraordinary jrnportlon*. Nearly $20.-
000.000 was engaged during the week,
establishing a record for New York. The
movement exerted little Influence here
except for a slight stiffening at time
money rates.

' Universal Morphinism is I
Among Amur Region Folk
St. Petersburg,—Universal morphin
ism is impending along the inhabi
tants of the Amur rrgion. The fright
ful conditions already prevailing there
were described otday by Dr. Stnrokot
nizky, director of the psychiatric sec
tion of the Medical Society of Blago
vestchensk.
The disease embraces all classes and
has spread into the villages. Old
men and children as young as nine
years old have become victims. In
the prisons of the Amur territory, 300
of each 1,000 Inmates are certified as
morphine victims.
A strange feature Is the habit of
those who have money and have given
way to the drug, of furnishing It to
those who are to poor to buy. There
are secret clubs which propagate the
habit. People may be seen In the
open streets Injecting morphine into
themselves.
Dr. Starokotnizky speaks of men
collecting twenty to twenty-five rou
bles a day and buying morphine for
those who arc craving for It. In the
Rown of Blagovestohcnsk alone, he re
ports that from 1,500 to 2,000 grammes
of morphine are sold dally. ,

STIRRING BOUT
WITH A PANTHER
In Hunt for Man-Eating Tiger,
Military Company Meets With
Vicious Animal.
Calcutta.—. Details reached hero today ]
of a stirring hunting adventure with a
panther, in which a company of the 92nd
Punjabis have Just figured. The scene
was Eastern Bengal.
Mr. Rosa, a subdlvislonal officer, en
listed the aid of the subidar (chief na
tive officer) of the company in rounding
up a man-eating tiger, With a section
of twenty-five men, armed with rifles,
bayonets, and bill cartridges, they were
guided by a villager to the spot where
the tiger was thought to be. Mr. Ross
declined to take charge of the opera
tions, saying ho wanted the first shot.
He therefore, took up his position in
front of tile men, with a scout to the
right and the left. The men were drawn
up as If an attack on the enemy's stock
ade were premeditated. The order was
given to load the rifles and to fix bayo
nets and the party advanced.
Scarocly had they started when nn
animal broke from cover and with great
leaps and bounds charged straight at
Mr. Ross, who dropped on one knee and
fired. Still the animal came on. Ono
of the two scouts, Havlldar, Hahommed
Aalm, jumped in front of the officer and
took tiie cliurge of his bayonel, firing
at the same time. Ho saved Mr. Ross,
hut he was knocked down by the ani
mal, which fell on him.
The second scout, Lance Nalk Snk
hnwut Khun, rushed to his comrade’s
aid. The animal charged him, 100. He
also received the charge on his bayonet
and pulled the trigger at the snme time,
lie was knocked down and his leg was
savagely bitten.
Then the subadar, forgetting that he
was In charge of the operations rushed
Into the fray witli a sporting gun, fol
lowed by Ills men with hoyonets le
velled. Mr. Ross, too, dashed Into the
melee. There were shots, bayonet
thrusts, and shouts. Two men were
knocked down by the animal and maul
ed. Others were knooked down, but
got up unhurt. It was a whirlwind of
fur, steel and puggrees that would have
delighted (ho heart of a moving-picture
operator.
Finally the sepoys killed the animal.
It was then seen that It was a panther
and not a tiger, as they had thought. In
its body were seven bullets and eleven
bayonet wounds.
