COTTON MARKET ACTIVE.
New York Quotations Dropped 90
Points-Brokers Fail at
New Orleans.

New York, Oct. 21.-The Cotton ex-
change has been the scene of the widest
excitement today and the most active
market in the history of the institution
has been the result. The largest transac-
tons ever before reported covered 060,-
200 bales I'D to 3 p. IN. Today the sales
reached 6S2, 900 bales before , p. IN.
The decline today was a loss of about
go points and the decline from the high
est point reached, which was on October
is, is about 1M cent, or 116 points.
March declined from 1901 on October 10
to 1888 today. The decline since Sat
urday mounts to 90 points.
From the lowest price the market re
acted and a better class Of buying pre-
vailed. The small failure at New Or
leans. which is understood to have af-
fected the local market, did not have any
effect here. Conservative people are
holding off and the market is very sensi-
tive to selling orders. All the weak
trade nave not been cleared out and a
better class of buyers nave been eXten-
sive operators on the long side.

HUNDREDS HOMELESS.
Fire Destroys Scores of Homes at
Algiers, La.-No Lives
oct

New Orleans, La, Oct. 21.-Fire broke
out about 1 o'clock Sunday morning in
Algiers, and before the flames were final
ly subdued destroyed about 100 small
buildings and twenty more p%retentious
structures, including the courthouse and
a number of handsome residences. The
fire started at the corner of Bermuda and
Morgan streets and swept in a south
westerly direction. 1t is estimated that
700 persons were rendered homeless. Re-
lief measures were started this morning
for the benefit of the destitute. The
building used as a police court and jail
in Algiers was constructed about the
year 1912 for a residence, the greater
portion of the town then being the La
Nergne plantation home. The records of
the Fifth district (Algiers) were con-
sumed in the building. The loss by fire
will not probably exceed $4,000; insur-
ance is light.

A N BESIEGED.
Chicago Police Use Sulphur to Overcome
a Madman.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 21.-Suffering from
a violent fit Of insanity, Gaius S. Merwin.
a prominent pigiron merchant, with the
aid of firearms, held Woodland Park in
a state of siege yesterday, for sixteen
hours. Barricaded in the upper front
room of his residence, 80 Woodland
Park, on the south side of the park, he
maintained his position throughout the
greater part of the day, repelling every
attempt to dislodge him with a fusilade
from his revolver. The police were no,
titled early in the day and a squad of six
men was detailed to dislodge Merwin.
They soon found they had the biggest
kind of a job on their hands.
To forcibly dislodge the enemy meant
loss of life. So strategy was resorted to.
An entrance was forced into the base,
ment and a pound of sulphur was thrown
into the furnace. Soon the supplying
fumes were noticeable to those outside,
but they had no effect on Merwin other
than to increase his artillery practice.
Another shovelful of sulphur wa.
thrown in. This had the desired effect.
In ten minutes the house was filed with
the fumes, and the mailman of Wood
land Park fell back on a bed, half SUITE,

BRITATN'S ULTIMATUM.
England Demands Full Reparation
for the Arrests at
Uruan.

London, Oct. 19.-The st. James Ca
zette this afternoon follows up it's dis
closures of yesterday regarding the poll
cy of the Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain,
secretary of state for the colonies, re-
garding Venezuela and the apparent de-
termination of the British

by making the following important state,
mcnt:
1--WE are in a position to state that the
Marquis of Salisbury has sent an ulti-
matum to President Crespo, which not
only sets out the demands of the British
government for reparation or account
of the arrest of the deputation and in
spectors of police at Uruan, but also
states the terms upon which Great Brit
ain will definitely determine the bound,
airy dispute with that republic. The Ill
timatum is now en- route to President
Crespo, if it is not already delivered to
him.
This final action was decided upon
by the Marquis of Salisbury and Mr..
Chamberlain before the formers recent
holiday in France. Both the Marquis of
Salisbury and Mr.. Chamberlain are in
perfect agreement as to the necessity of
ending the frontier dispute, even if Ven
ezuela has to be brought to terms by
methods which are most effective in
reaching d1 ullueISldlull Will OOuL
American republics. The instructions to
station Maxim guns on the frontier are to
be associated in the dispatch only in the
sense that guns will be necessary to over
awe those Venezuelans who are not like

and the government of Caracas, whatever
agreement the latter may make with
Great Britain after a study of the Mar

Gazette, commenting upon a dispatch to
the Times from New York, declaring
that a joint refusal of the European
powers to accept the Monroe doctrine
is believed to be in the Marquis of Sails
bury's mind. says: There is no such
thing. The Monroe doctrine is a matter
entirely between the old country and the
United States, and if the time ever
comes for Great Britain to take sides on
the subject we shall stand with the

VIEWS ON SHERM BOOK
Harry Garfield Says a Reply May be
Made-Foraker Says 1t is
UntinaIV.

Cleveland, O., Oct. ia great deal
of interest is manifested here by pollti-
cal workers concerning the review of
Senator Sherman's book which was sent
out from Chicago last night exclusively
by the Associated press.
The eldest son of the late President,
Harry A. Garfield, was seen today by
an Associated press reporter and, while
adverse to expressing himself, nnally
said: Il would much prefer not to be
quoted or to say anything on the sub
ject. It has been the policy of the fam
lily not to reply to charges that are made
against my father, so we have never CIV
en- any attention to such as the Roscoe
Conkling matter and other Things or
that kind. There is in the possession CT
| our family all the letters, manuscripts,
diaries and such material that was left
by my father and it is our intention 10
answer all charges in the form of a BIZ
ography. rather thai as the charges are
made.
Il do know one thing. I am and have
been a warm admirer and friend OF Sen
ator Sherman's and l know my father al
| ways was. Of course Senator sherman mas
a perfect right to- his own opinions, as has
| everybody els2. The nomination in 1880
was considered by my fathers TRENDS
and nearly everybody to be he result OF
a peculiar condition of affairs. Whatever
Senator Sherman may think OF II is ms
own matter and he has a right to his
own opinions. 1t may be that we will
nave something to say regarding this mat
ter. but / will not say what we will or will
not. / could only say that after a con-
ference with the family and looking over
scme of the papers. 1t does not seem to
me right or proper for anyone to make
charges by Inference. They should be
su~bstantiated by papers and documents.
/ do not care to enter into a controversy
over it and prefer not to discuss the mat
ter until | have seen the book, which L
nave ordered. l think whatever reply
we may decide to make will likely be
made in the form of a biography, but at
the same time it is possible we may de-
eide otherwise and make a statement re-
g~ariing it."
Columbus, O., Oct. 19.-Ex-Gov. For
aker, being asked what he knew or
thought of what Senator Sherman's new
book, replied: Il have not seen the
book. ! do not know anything about
its contents, but if as stated in the news
papers it criticises prominent Republic
ans, L am sorry the proof sheets could
not have been withheld until after the
election"

tory and as profitable to Chicago as the
Madison Square garden horse show is to
New York. With the new Union Ele,
waited railway loop in operation next
spring. the Coliseum will be easily ac~
cessible from the downtown hotels as
we'll as from the north and west sides OF
the city, and with an adjustable amphl-
theater capable of seating from 5000 to

San Francisco, Cal, Oct. 21.-Eugene
d. Duprey, the principal defender of

He is still a very sick man and although
his physician reports that the attorney is

alone appearing in court. The symptoms
of paralysis which were so manifest

have not left him, Notwithstanding the
skillful treatment and careful nursing
he has received. 1t is understood that
in the event Mr. Duprey is not sufii-
GENTLY strong to come to court when
all of the evidence is in, District Attor-
ney Barnes will consent to a continuance
until sGch time as Durrant's lawyer
should be able to present his argument
