Almost A Fire.

One day recently, Tommie Jen-
nings, living out on DR.. Pas
chal's place above town, had a lot
of hands picking cotton and among
them one who insisted upon smok-
ing pipe. The result was that
he dropped some fire into his bas-
ket, which continued to burn slow
ly but was undiscovered. It was
carried to the gin house and pour
ed into the house along with the
rest where there were some five or
six bales. Several hours after
wards, the cotton in the gin house
was found to be on fire, andit was
by the greatest effort the entire
house, cotton and all were not des
troyed. As it was the loss proved
to be slight-only few hundred
pounds.

Buoyant Fssling In New York, Caused by
Heavy Purchases.
NEW York, July l5,--Money easy at 10Ia

The stock market opened strong on prompt
denial of further failures in the dry goods trade,
and as the day advanced became buoyant There
were heavy purchases by prominent operators,
and brokers reported increased orders from the
small class of traders. The crop situation is
still the chief topic of discussion and the favora=
bic character of the advices from the
grain growing regions was the principal
factor in speculation at the Stock Exchange.
The increased export demand fer cereals and the
falling off in the visible supply have added to
the bullish feeling, as did also dispatches to the
effect that Union Pacific earnings are Improving
and the land sales enormous The improve
Hlent in prices ranged from to ~ per cent,
the Vanderbilt the grangers, LaekaWanna, and
Pacific Mail, being the features. Speculation
continued strong until 2 o'clock, when New York
Central fell off to l918 on reports of trouble in
the trunk-line pool over tho distri-
button of percentages. The decline in
the rer.ss;.r-, zsr of the list was less
important, and ranged from 1 to l. per cent
In final sales there was a recovery of to Il
per cent, and the market closed firm, During
the afternoon some New York Central was bought

by the Suspension of a Bank.
fNDfANAPotfs Judy Is.
Business matters were somewhat demoralized
,ver the suspension of Fletcher & Sharpe's
Bank, but when the situation became fully
understood the excitement gradually died away.
Trade has just begun to improve and bank
troubles are not pleasant to contemplate, but IN
mis- case it is hoped the trouble il but tempo
fAry and should not AFFECT trade There is GER
hinly much which is encouraging in the situa-
Hon. The present outlook Of our crops prom
nes an increase in our national wealth this year
X probably not less than $500, 600, 600, This
nAans increased trade everywhere; it means q
revival of our notwithstanding interests. People
viii have money to spend and wiz spend it
Wholesale merchants win find orders from re-
iaiIefs largely increased, for the latter win be
compelled to increase their stocks and replenish
them as they are reduced by the demands Of
consumers Railroads will enjoy increased
tfhnac IN carrying products from the
West and merchandise of all kinds
from the East The credit OF corporations
new lines win suddenly become active All
this is the promise of the enormous corps now
maturing or about to mature all over The coun-
try. There is no guess-wofk aboutit; the expe-
rience Of every man tells him tits certainty.
The exports from New York are. now showing
favorable increase, while there has been a fall
ing off III imports, SO the balance of trade is
turning in our favor. This is encouraging as It
not only assures no further exports of gold. but
promises to bring that metal back TO is Which
we sent AWAY a few months ago, and probably
more, too. The movement Of grain and cotton,
which must be largely in excess Of last year,
viii enhance railroad earnings and remove all
doubts as to their financial sou2dnsss Ger.
