A MONSTER LAND SLIDE.
Death and Destruction Threatened at
Kansas City.

Death and Destruction Threatened at
Kansas City.
CHICAGO, March pa special to the
Times from Kansas City, Mo-, says: "a
heavy rain storm which prevailed all day
Saturday and yesterday caused a
tremendous land slide on the
bluff facing the union depot, which
threatens to work great injury to property
along Bluff street for three and a half
squares. For 800 feet the entire bluff APP
pears 10 have been pushed forward by some
irresistible agency, hundreds of tons of
rock and earth sliding down the steep hill
side.
WARNING SNAPS.
'For several hours before the land slide
peculiar swapping noises came from the
face of the bluff, and o this
was followed by crash
which startled the whole city. Tons of
earth and huge boulders had crashed down,
demollshing frame engine house at the
entrance of the street cable line tunnel along
the face of the bluff. About half
way from the base to the top is a ledge
about so feet in width, on which are a num-
Der of shanties occupied by families of
colored people.
Scanned WITH FISSURES.
"This ledge is now scanned with immense
assures which extend its whole length, and
houses are tilted in every direction. The
residents were compelled to flee for their
lives. As this big body of rock and earth
now overhangs the track in the
Union Pacific yards, the whole face of
the bluff may at any moment be precipi-
tated down Bluff street and cover all the
tracks leading east and north from the city,
etfectually stoppi1g railway traffic in these
directions, and also blocking Bluff street,
which is the main rOad from the union
depot to the main portion of the city.
THREATENING DISASTER.
"A boulder as large as house fell midway
of the Bluff, but lodged before reaching the
bottom aud now hangs suspended threaten
ing disaster to those who pass Glow The
Fifth street cable line passes under this i'm
pending mass, and should tho end slide any
further than this n portion of the road will
be destroyed The union depot and the
stores along Union avenue, the Elevated
railroad station, the Eighth street cable

mills lie directly in the path of the ava

Satisfactory Explanation.

FROM Hte " uh Stfeet NeUS'
Connecticut merchant who applied to a
New York house for goods on credit was met by
the reply that he had failed and paid only ten
cents on the dollar.
Very true" he replied. but ! am the only
merchant in the town who ever paid over SIX"
Didn't you allow your paper to go to protest
last wiuter?'
Yes, out the doctors said | couldn't live
twenty-four hours just then, and l wasn't think
ing of earthly things"
Haven't you put all your property in your
wife's nameE"
well yes, but she knows more about bust
ness in five minutes than do in half day"

ding to the Chronicle;


1t will be seen that the amount coming in
sight during August was much larger last
year than any other, being then about No.
OOO bales. Of this amount, only some
10000 were actual receipts Including some
$4,000 new cotton, the balance being chiefly
corrections, which ought to have been in
cluded before The other years 1928,
1910, and 1SS5-6-when the August crop
was comparatively large-about 1901 900
were all years when a considerable proper
ton of the crop was carried over into the
summer, the weekly receipts holding up all
along, and being at this season much larger
than they run now. 1t is preposterOuS to
count on anything like 40, 900 in August of
this year. Unless we have an extraordi-
narily early new crop, the addition to the
crop is most unlikely to reach even 10000,
partly for considerations already mentioned,
and partly for some am about TO notice.
Recent comparative receipts are apt to
be somewhat misleading. In the first place,
at this time last year there was a heavy
overland movement going on, due to the
anticipation of the Interstate commerce
law; in March of last year the net overland
reached97 900 bales. Ii is not apt to be
10000 this year, and may not even reach
$4,000. Almost certainly, however, it will
fall off more than enough to make up for
the present slight excess in receipts from
plantations
these rather full receipts may be other
wise explained. Many planters and other
holders of spot cotton who wanted to keep
their cotton on the bull market, bought flu
lures against such amounts as they were
obliged to sell. They are now forced to
ma ket what cotton they have left to pay
the losses on their futures. In fact, as re-
marked in the article of Nov. 30, they have
recently been obliged to sell both futures
and spot cotton.
The Agriculture, Bureau during this
month, estimated that 80 per cent of the
crop had been marketed by Feb l. This
would make the crop scarcely over $780,
600, and while that figure is no doubt rather
small, do not believe the Bureau can be
we'll quarter of million out of the way,
as it would amount to an error of about so
per cent. in the estimated quantity I'M
marketed.
The present condition of the market is
principally due to speculative disturbances
aided by a tendency to raise estimates to
$500, 900 bales or over. Being fully per-
suade that there are no good grounds for
calculating on more than about 6,625, 900
bales, and i'll view of the fact that the trade
was freely buying cotton cent and more
higher, | consider the extreme decline is IN
natural. Apart from speculative influences
or perhaps, assisted by them, we will prob
ably see prices regain what they have lost,
or at least most of it before the season is
over. DEMOCRITUS.
