NEW YORK COTTON
New York—The cotton market was
active today and presented a somewhat
excited appearance owing to a rush of
belated March shorts to cover and an
advance of nearly 30 points in the price
of that delivery. Later months were
also steady t 0 firm and the market clos
ed steady at a net gain of 29 points
on -March and of 4 to 8 points in other
positions l .
The opened was steady at unchanged
prices to a decline of 2 points being in
fluenced by some what disappointing
cables, a fairly good weather map and
private predictions that the low area in
tile northwest would move directly east
ward instead of working down into the
belt. The strength of late yesterday,
which had resulted from rather aggres
sive support by leading trade interests
and which also had suggested the pres
ence of a considerable March short in
terest, tended to restrict offerings, how
ever and March began to advance short
ly- after the call. Perhaps not more
than 12,000 or 15,000 bales of March
changed hands but there were only a
few sellers and the price went np sev
eral points between transactions. In th
late trading there were sales at 1276, or
28 points above the closing figures of
yesterday and fully 70 points, or $3.60
per bale above the low point of the
month. March closed within a point of
the best and it was pointed out that if
the e' was still any short interest out
standing it had only unii noon on Mon
day in Which to finally adjust commit
ment. Reports of rapidly rising water
in the Mississippi at Memphis and the
eastern belt forecast for showers in
parts of the eastern belt tomorrow, prob
ably contributed to the advance which
carried May and later positions to about
7 or 10 points net higher. Realizing
caused reactions of only a point or two
in the late trading.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
New Orleans—The cotton market had
a firm undertone throughout the short
Saturday session and prices were put
higher, after an initial decline, by gen
eral buying, in which it was said that
prominent spot interests led. A com
paratively heavy volume of business
we transacted and the outside public
took a fresh interest in the stple, buy
ing freely through commission houses.
On the opening the tone was quiet
and steady at a loss of 2 to 3 points.
Liverpool was not high enough on fut
ures and the weather map was better
than expected, no rain of consequence
being reported in the cotton belt, while
temperatures were warmer and the
storm in the northwest seemed to be
passing off to the eastward without ex
tending down to the south. From the
first call, offerings were well taken o ar o
'Of and the lowest levels were only a
decline of 3 to 4 points. Around the
middle of the morning the buying was
strongest and prices were put 8 to 10
points over the final quotations of 'yes
terday. Much liquidation of long cot
ton came out on the rtee, buyers of the
earlier part of the wedk being satisfied
with their profits, but Ihe market stood
the dealizing well. The forecast of un
settled and cloudy weather for a large
part of the belt, with rains in the soutit
em portions of Alabama, Mississippi and
Georgia, where too much rain has al
ready fallen, was a help to the hull side.
The close was steady at a net gain of
3 to 7 points.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
New York—The upward movement in
stocks went forward briskly today.
Trading was unusually active for a Sat
urday session and there was a keen de
mand for all the leading stocks. The
price gains amounted to 1 to 2 points in
many cases. The rise, since the begin
ning of the week reached about 16 points
for Reading and Amalgamated. 4 to 3
points for Union Pacific, Smelting, Le
high Valley and Can and 2 to 3 points
for a long list of other issues.
The demand for stocks in which a
large short Interest is believed to exist
was urgent. This was particularly true
of Reading and Union Pacific. More
cheerful news from the flooded districts
and improved conditions in the money
market aho encouraged operations on
the long side.
The bank statement made the expect
d good showing. The expected bond
market was irregular.

BENEDICTINES
ON ANJSLAND
Latest Experiment in Monas
ticism Being Experience of
Order’s Withdrawal From
English Counties.
London.—The decision of the Bene
dictines of Caldy Island, off the coast
of Wales, to withdraw from the
Church of England and seek union
with the Order of St. Benedict, de
prives the established church of its
most prominent experiment in monas
ticism.
About twenty years ago a medical
student, who had not yet Qualified for
Ids profession, lived on the Isle of
Dogs and did church work there. Ho
finally decided that he would rather
be a monk than a physician, and ho
gothored about him a number of
youths whoisympathized with his as
piration. Presently they arbitrarily
decided to call themselves ''Benedic
tines,” but did not receive any sanc
tion from the order. Disregarding
this detail they banded themselves to
gether under the Benedictine rules of
life and wore the habit of the order.
. For some years this religious com
munity went on wittiout much public
notice until ■ the rollglous world was
startled to learn that Archbishop
Temple, the aged head ot the English
church, had given the monks a char
ter, signed and sealed, recognizing
them as English Benedictines and au
thorizing them to elect an abbot.
The former medical student was
elected with the title of Father Aol
dred, Abbot of Palnsthorpo, a place
In Yorkshire to which they had re
moved from the Isle of Dogs. This
place presently became ton small for
the order and the monks purchased
and moved to the Island of Caldy,
where they now live.
INDUSTRIAL SPY
COMES SECOND
Paris—After the military comes the
Industrial German spy. The other
day two sons of a jeweler in the lluo
de la Paix observed a man standing
In front ot the shop window and copy
ing models. The jeweler’s sons ques
tioned the artist, then struggled with
him. Ho njnde his escape, but left
his pocketbook behind.
The pocket book contained numer
ous proofs of industrial espionage. It
was deposited In the archives of the
Jewelers und Gold smiths’ company,
where there are other pocket books
which were seized under similar cir
cumstances. Altogether there were
60 designs of jewelry In the book —
not a simple sketche, but drawings
carefully executed and of astonishing
finish.
The designs wero accompanied
with notes in German Indicating the
nature of the stones used In the
jewelry, the number of poarls In a
brooch, etc. It is now considered that
the time has come to protect shop
keepers against this kind of espion
age, and the perfoct of Police will
be asked to employ all the means in
his power to prevent the copying and
photographing of models In shop win*,
dows.
