More or less sensational reports to the effect that there was a marked deterioration in the Texas crop as a result of the Intense ly hot weather In that state were free ly clroulated, and these "served to bring about another big advance. Liverpool was due about unchanged but closed at an advance of about six points, new high levels being established. Private cables stated that bad crop news was being reoelved from all sections and that spots were covering. All of these advices had a marked effect on the local future mar ket.

STOCK IWIRKET CEIESU.LT DULL Hopes For Revival of Gen eral Demand Were Vain. Total Sales 163,900. NEW YORK—Today’s stock market was analygous to those earlier in the week. The dull and dropping tendency was the reflection of tile disappointment of speculative hopes of a revival of gen eral demand for stocks «is a conse quence of tho extremely favorable de velopments of the week. The demand continued torpid and, while the selling pressure was not urgent, the dribblng of offerings was sufficient to carry prices irregularly downwards. The financial chronicle estimated the rate of increase in June gross earnings of railroads over June of last year at 10.45 p>?r cent on returns from one third of the total mileage of the country. Movement of money for the week found their reflection in the cash gain. While the rs-paym\it of loans to the banks, naturally following the passing of tho July settlements, were also re ported in the actual condition in con- with the loan contraction of the averagos. Bonds were irregular. Total sales par value $1,626,000 U. 8. 2’s and 3’s have declined 1-4 and the 4s’ reg istered 1-2 per cent on call during the ■week.

UECNTHE ROOSEVELT WILDS MERE PRIMITIVE SPEARS USED AND THEN LUNCH EON A LA LONDON JUNGLE BEASTS FLEE Little More Danger Than That In Attendance at a Bull Fight. (By A. J. Lambert.) LONDON. —Going lion hunting in a special palatial train, riding Aut upon Kapiti Plains with* seven other Eu ropeans absolutely unarmed and see ing two huge lions killed by natives, not with modern bullets, but with primitive spears, was the unique spec tacle I witnesed in British East Af rica a week ago sailing for Europe. This remarkable hunt was arranged by Lord Delamere, one of the most renowned of big game hunters, and its success proved beyond question that it is possible to see lions killed at close enough range to take photo graphs, and also that such “sport” is accompanied by little more danger than that of attending a bull fight. In addition to Lord * Delamere, our party consisted of Lord Cardross, heir to the earldom of Buchan; Lord I Arthur Hay, the future Earl of Gif-' ford; the Hon. Berkeley Cole, Captain Ward, Messrs. J. K. Etkington, Vaughan Evans, D. G. Longworth and The American correspondent. London Feast in Jungle. Wo left Niarobi in a special train of ten cars, comprising sleepers, res taurant and horse boxes. A pleasant ride of two hours brought up to Kapiti Plains, where our hunting train was pluced on a siding, practically ai the spot where nearly n month previous I had seen Colonel Roosevelt make, his plunge into Central Africa. After a luncheon that would have done credit to any hotel in the West End of London, our attention was at tracted to a band of warriors coming across the burnt plains, their buffalo shields painted white and their long spears gleaming in the sun. Before approaching us they went through evolutions and dances propitiatory to their hunting god. They were our Masai hunters, who were to kill our lions. Their bodies were painted with red clay, their hair done In picturesque queues, their bodies ornamented with lion or leopard skins. We held a council with these Masai, at which the campaign was arranged. It was decided to send out oq the foliowing morning three pairs of So malis on horseback to locate the lions. Word was then to he sent back to us. Lord Delamere had had built in Nairobi a wonderful corrugated iron box, seven feet cube. The box was open at the bottom, and when tilted seven of the party could crawl in and then carry It across the veldt by strong handles fastened to the side. Game Is Driven Up. In addition, the box had a divided floor, which could be lowered, so that it a lion charged us and toppled the box over, we were still safe from danger. The box had been built prin cipally to allow the use of the cine matograph, which I carried. Unfortunately, this complicated in strument. got out of gear at the criti cal moment, and proved not only use less but an impediment. The next morning .after a sub stantial breakfast, our Somalis sent, in messengers to say that they had rounded up three lions. Off we start ed, the Masai in double column flunk ing as on both sides. At last our outriders came gallop ing toward us. A lioness, they said, was In the stubble Just ahead. We fixed our eyes upon the spot, and just above the top of the short grass we finally made out a pair of steady, gleaming eyes and the set mouth ol a big lioness. Walts for Onslaught. We took up the box and trundled on. The Massi said, “Are you ready?” and on the word being given rushed forward with a whoop. Two of the loaders walked absolutely past the crouching lioness. The third was rewarded with a spring, and borne to the ground by the infuri ated brute. We held our breaths. But by some strange fate the lion ess immediately jumped up, leaving her victim with no more Injuries than would be sustained from an encounter with a household cat out of temper, and rushed away. The Mass! kept running after hes In double file, singing arid shouting derisive songs. After a run of perhaps a mile the, lioness stopped for a moment’s rest. The Massi closed almost in upon her before she rose. We could see her paws dig into the sand of the veldt. We could see the quiver of the muscles of the entire body as they set for action. We couid see her turn her body and face toward the band of Masai ranged a hundred yards away. Beast Has No Chance. There was a brown flash across the sky. In desperation she made a run and a spring for the Massi. Kbo seemed to land right in their midst. The phalanx was unbroken. The white shields and spears flashed like heliographs. The phalanx dis solved, and we knew what the charg ing lioness had met her end fighting, and ferociously. We emerged from the box. When we arrived the warriors were fight ing for the possession of the tail. ■ After lunch at the train we started out again. After a trek of. seven j miles one of our Somalis, wno had; been keeping a lion In one place for more than six hours, rode up and said, "Just at the top of that knoll I yonder you will see the lion.” A moment more and we saw a mag- 1 nifleent lion standing out clear; against the sky.
