at an advance of l-Bc. Middling 12 5-16.
Sales were 1,025 bales on the spot and
500 to arrive.
Futures opened steady, 6 to 9 points
above the close yesterday as a result
of higher temperatures and no rain In
Texas. The week-end figures were also
bullish and this aided in sending the
market up to higher levels. 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. As a result, much business was
put through and although then'* were
heavy realizing sales, the market absorb
ed all offerings in such an easy manner
that October contracts worked up as
high as 12.43 and March sold as high
as 12.54. At the close, which was steady
the market was 11 to 18 points above
the close yesterday.

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.

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.

THE OLD-FASHIONED BONNET
How dear to my heart is the old
fashioned bonnet,
The old-fashioned bonnet Noll used
to wear;
Without, any plums and red cherries
stuck on it—
The bonnet that didn’t require
phony hair.
The dish-pan effect may be stylish
and stunning,
The waste-paper basket that’s late
ly come In
May be quite the rage and recherche
and cunning.
But give me the hat she tied under
her chin.

King of Beasts Runs.
Standing still for a moment, he
rushed for the nearest horsemen, who
galloped just out of danger. The
Massi, with the utmost Indifference,
drew near and asked for permission
to finish Mr. Lion. It was given.
They started in single file, one of
them fifty yards in advance of his
fellow hunters. As they ran toward
the llo n they sang and shouted.
•The lion, who was crouching, arose
when the warrior drew near, put his
tail between his legs and ran from the
approaching white shields like a mon
grel cur.
The leading hunter threw his spear,
but missed. Then, casting aside his
shield, he chased this king of beasts
