NEW YORK COTTON
New York—The cotton market opened
steady at a decline of 2 points to an ad
vance of 2 points or about as due on
the cables. The failure of early weath
er reports to indicate that the storm re
ported off the Cuban coast late yesterday
had made any definite progress toward
the belt encouraged some selling and
scattering liquidation but southern and
Well stieet shorts were again buyers and
the market worked up to a net advance
of 5a7 points during the early trading.
Subsequent fluctuations -were somewhat
irregular with the market 3 or 4 points
off from the best while business was
less active than yesterday.
Reports of bad weather imparted a.
firmer tone to the market late in
forenoon and active mon’hs sold about
14 to 15 points higher on continued cov
ering and local buying for a rally, lam
ing spot interests were sellers _on the
advatice and prices eased off 6 or 7 points
iu«t before midday. Lending English ex
ports estimate this season’s consumption
of American Cotton at 13.500,000 bales
providing the troubles in China and be
tween t’aly and Turkey are settled

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
New Orleans—Cotton futures opened
sieady at an advance of 3 to 5 points in
the face of poor cables and a good
weather map. Bullish reports from the
interior regarding the spot demand and
the tropical storm central over the
Florida straits and apparently moving
•lowly northward caused many profes
sional traders to work for a rally. After
the call buying increased and at the end
of the first half hour of business prices
were 7aS points up. The weather map
was dry with practically no frost re
ported in the cotton region.
Among certain traders’ belief was
strong that the market was due for a
reaction and they made an organized at
temp. to put prices higher.
Around the middle of the morning the
trading months were 12' to 14 points up.
Here the rumor was spread about that
the Czar of Kussla had been assassinat
ed and the market fell 8 to Ift points
immediately. The downward movement
was checked by the denial of the story
but the market displayed little recupera
tive power and at noon was 3 co 5
points over yesterday's close on the more
active months.
In the afternoon session the bears ap
plied pressure to the mftrket # and at 2
o’clock prices were 3 to 5 points under
yesterday’s close.
The market closed steady at a net
decline of 5 to 8 points.

N. Y. STOCK-MARKET
New York. —Trading in stocks was
somewhat more active at the opening to
day. Changes from yesterday's final
range were only nominal. The *cn!y
change of importance in the whole list
was a decline of a point in Norfolk and
Wes ern.
Unfavorable reports regarding the pur
pose. of the meeting of the U. S. Steel
directors today caused bear selling of
the stock. The price gave way from
GO to 59 1-4 and other leading stocks
also sagged to slightly below yesterday's
closing.
American Tobacco preferred lost a
point. The Erie group and several oth
ler low priced stocks showed distinct
! firmness. Lackawanna jumped 15 points
1 to 65 compared with 506, Us low figure
i on Sept. 25.
j Selling of the steel issues furnished the
; only active movement of the morning in
; the stock market. U. S. Steel yielded to
! the influence oi heavy pressure and the
weakness extended to the shares of oth
-1 r steel companies especially Republic
Steel.
The general list held fairly steady. A sr
the time for the meeting of U. S. Steel
directors approached some large blocks
of U. S. Steel were thrown on the mar
ket and the price fell to 5S 3-4. Re
public Steel gave way 1 1-8 to 19 and the
preferred 2 5-8 to 78, eclipsing the lov:
figures of yesterday.
Bonds irregular.
When it became known thor the
j meeting of the United States Steel di-
I rectors was to officially cancel the lease
i of the Hill Ore property, the stock man
j ifested a rallying tendency and rose to
69 3-8. Prices elsewhere hardened
sympathetically.
Selling orders for U. S. Steel increas
ed and the price fell to 52 1-2. Weak
ness in the industrials became more
widespread. *
The market closed steady.
Norfolk and Western made a quick rise
to 108 1-4 on the announcement that the
dividend had been Increased to six per
cent. Later the price went back to last
night’s level, 107 1-2.

feet. On a hit and run play Baker
went to third on Murphy's Ingle !o
center. It wits Murphy’s second hit
of the game. There were iwo on
bases with none out. The din was
something terrific. Murray deliber
ately allowed Davis long foul fly to
drop safe in order that Baker might
not scoro. Bakor was safe at home
on Davis hit to Doyle, the Athletic’s
third baseman making a beautiful
slide to the plate. With none out

first Barry stepped to tho plate. Bar
ry’s first attempt was a trial at a
bunt, but he fouled the hall hack of
the plate. His next attempt was a
beautiful bunt, and Ames, in trying to
field the ball to Merkle, hit Barry on
top of the head, Murphy and Davit
scoring and Barry came nil the way
home on Murray’s wild return of the
ball to second base in an attempt to
catch Barry. II seemed as If pande
monium had broken out. Thomas
was the flist ma n out In the inning
by fanning. Bender hit a hall over
second ba.se which Doyle got by a
beautiful run and threw the ball to
Merkle, who muffed it, but as Bender
had stopped running Merkle was not
glvn an error and Bender was out.
It would have hee n an almost sure
single for the Indian if he had run
the hit, out. Ixnd drove a long fly
to left center which Devore got after
a hard run. Four runs; two hits;
two errors.
Devore’s catch was as brilliant a
piece of fielding as had been seen

most striking the batsman. Fletcher

cent ball, not a semblance of a run
being scored on him except in the
first Inning. iVmler lifted a little fly
to Doyle. Lord made an Infield sin
gle which Fletcher made a great try
for. Oldring singled to center, Lord
going to third and Oldring to second

Murphy singled to right, scoring Col
lins. Baker took second on the drive.

both Baker and Murphy on bases and
only one out. Murphy’s hit would
have been an easy double had Baker
not hesitated in running to second.
Davis slng'ed to right scoring Baker,
Murphy going to third. The stands
were simply wild with cheering. Bar
ry drove the ball over the temporary
fence in right field for a double, scor
ing Murphy. Marqunrd hero relieved
Wiltse. Thomas was the ninth man
in the inning, the Athletics having
batted round with one out. It was a
great exhibition of consecutive hitting.
Davis and Barry both scored on a
wild pitch. So far in the inning there
had been seven runs scored on six
hits, a fielder's choice and a wild
pitch. The game had almost resolved
itself Into a burlesque. Thomas made
his first lilt, of the series on a drive
to right. Thomas went out stealing,
Meyers to Fletcher. Bender ended the
inning, by striking out. Seven runs,
7 lilts, 1 error.

FIFTEEN
EOT 3 JURORS SECURED
IN rajMER TRIAL
All Are Married and Under 40
Years Old. Unwillingness to
Serve Shown.
Opelousas,La.— Tho fourth day of
the trial of Mrfl. Zee Run go Mcßea,
for the alleged murder of young Allan
R. Garland, opened this morning with
three jurors In the box. There seem
ed little prospect of completing the
jury today ad the entire first week of
the trial may be consumed in the ef
fort to select 12 men who. have no
prejudice in the case.
Yesterday three hours were consume
ed in the examination of the 18 tales
men before the third juror was chosen
and a determination to avoid ser\ ice
in the case was plainly exhibited by
nearly every one questioned.
All throe of the jurors accepted and
sworn are married, each is under 40
years old, and two of them have chil
dren.
Defense Get Setback.
The defense scored a victory yes
terday when tho court overruled the
motion of the prosecution to dismiss
the special panel of taiesfhien sum
moned by Sheriff Swords, but counsel
for the prisoner received a setback
when Judge Pavy overruled their mo
tion to exclude District Attorney Gar
land from participating in the Prose
cution.
In the event of a conviction the de
ft use, it is expected, will make this
ruling of the court a principal ground
for asking for a now trial. Notwith
standing that the Louisiana, code pro
vides that the district attorney ahail
bu refused in any homicide case if re
lated within the fourth degree to eith
er the defendant or the deceased,
Judge Pavy ruled that Mr. Garland
could aid the acting district attorney
as “a private lawyer.’*
MY MOTHER.
Mother wrote to the teacher as fol

William deserves a whipping don't
hesitate on my account. Yours Lov
ingly, Mrs. Dick.” That night I came
home limping and dld’t care to go out
and play. Mother didn’t say anything.
Ryt next, time she wrote a note, it
opened: “Miss Mattlck,*’ and closed
with, “Yours respectfully, Mrs. Dick.
