Cotton Letter.

New York, Oct. 14.-(Special)- market
was weak today. January opened at IDS,
rallied to 1893, dropped to 7.S5 and closed at
1856. with the tone easy. The cause of the
decline was the pressure of spot cotton from
the south and the indifferent demand from
the spinning interests. After January had
sold at 7.S8 it rallied to 1874 on news from
New Orleans showing symptoms of dinin-
ished movement.
The receipts in the near future form the
key of the situation. IL they fall off we shall
advance sharply, If they continue heavy
prices may continue to sag.

The decline today was due principally to

From the brightness and glory of hol-

plunged into the darkness and horror of
terrible accident. which sent thrill
OF unuterable sadness through the thou
sands of guests and filled the city with
mourning. An electric tram car on it's
way from the city to the scene of the
military parade and sham battle crash
ed through the Ellice point bridge, and,
without a moments warning sixty-one
souls were plunged into eternity.
This was the morning Of the closing
day Of the carnival of sport with which
Victoria has for nearly a week been
doing honor to the queens birthday, and
the management had planned to make it
the climax of the celebration.
A parade was to be followed by sham
Pattle In which all the troops and marines
were to take part. Knowing that the
program of the day had been planned
with special care, hundreds of visitors
poured into the city. Early in the after
noon the crowd began making it's way
toward the parade ground. The main
route from the city is by the electric
ears which cross Victoria arm on

cars got over Point Ellice bridge safely,

NO CLEW YET DISCOVERED
As to the Whereabouts Of the Rev
Hermans
Evidence AccumuIates Tending to Show His
0uiIt-Diigent Efforts to Explain Miss
Samuelson's Disappearance

SALT LAKE, Utah, May 26.-No posi-
tive information has yet reached the
officials here as to the whereabouts of
the Rev. Francis Hermans, although the
police have been on the alert for the past
four days for some clue that would as
sist in locating him. The Associated
Press dispatches today saying that the
pastor was seen in Chicago last Satur-
day were eagerly read by the officials in
the hope that further information would
develop.
1t is believed that If Hermans was
innocent of the appalling crime with
which he is charged, he would certainly
telegraph his friends in this city to that
effect
The officers now. assert openly that
never before have they been able to
forge so complete and strong chain
of circumstantial evidence in any case of
grea tconcern as in this.
They are now directing their efforts
TO discover what became of Annie X.
Samuelson. The disappearance of her
trunk and the purchase of a large wood
en- box by the minister few days before
her disappearance leads to the theory
that she did not share the probable fate
of her friend, Henrietta Clausen.
Some time ago Hermans presented to
the wire of Rev. Mork package of hand
kerchiefs, which he said formerly be-
