PRoF. STowE DEvoL, D rector of the Agricultural Experiment Station, in writing of the sugar beet beet this week, says:
 "The next six weeks or two months will be a very critical period in the series of experiments under way in this Territory and 1t behooves all those growing beets to give them their best attention. They should withold water as m uch as possi ble and give only enough to keep the beets alive and obtain the sscchsrine matter as light, sunshine and dryness are necessary to secure high sugar percentage st the time Of metur iug. They should be well cultivated and the tops of the beet roots well GOV ared with soil. A little extra care in these matters just DOW may mean 8 great deal to the Territory.
 The advice of the Director should be carefully needed if we are to make the greatest possible success of the sugar beet and we can afford to do aothiDg less. Nature has here pre- sented every element of success in culti- Vating sugar beete; man must carefully apply them or fail in the business.

Death of Edward M. Wa11en.

New York, March 6.-Edward M.
Wallen, a prominent architect of De-
catur, Ala, was found dead in his room
at the st. Nicholas hotel at noon today.
Heart disease is supposed to have
caused his death. Proprietor Robinson
Of the St. Nicholas, has telegraphed to
Mr.. Wallen's wife, at Decatur, Ala, ap-
prising her Of his sudden DEATH. WALL
en- was between 40 and As years of age.
He came to this city on January goth
last, and had been stopping at the St.
Nicholas ever since. It Is said he was
one OF the most prominent architects
in the south, and that he built nearly
all the large court houses in that part
OF the country. 1t is understood he
came here to dispose of a patent for
filling court records. Mr.. Robinson
said he understood Wallen refused an
offer Of $35, 900 to sell his patent a few
days ago, and that it was his intention
to form q company with 500. 900 capital.
Proprietor Robinson believes hat Mr..
Wallen's Illness and subsequent death
was due, In a measure, to excitement
resultant from witnessing a prize fight.
He attended the West-Walcott contest
at the Broadway Athletic arena on
Wednesday night and since then he has
complained Of illness. He did not deem
1T serious enough. however, to warrant
the services of a physician and died
without medical attendance.

New York stock Market.

New York, March 6~.-Today's limited
market at the stock exchange was
under the absolute control of the room
traders. Those operators for the mo-
ment are bearish and seem tn be great
ly exercised over the probability Of
war in Europe. The weakness OF the
international issues following on the
heels OF yesterdays foreign selling was
OF advantage to those operating for
lower range OF prices. Among the
issues listed abroad. Louisville and
Nashville was especially weak. falling
TO 47ac, the lowest OF the week. st.
Paul, another foreign favorite. receded
a per cent. to 76h. Omaha
however, scored the greatest loss i'm the
railway group, declining lM to 54h on
the execution of stop orders. New York
Central sold down a point on rumors
that the matter Of refunding the high
interest paying bonds will not be taken
up for some time. In the Industrial
group sugar was weak. especially near
the close, on Washington rumors that
the new sugar schedule will call for n.
high specific duty with n decreased
differential. Chicago Gas, Leather, pre-
ferred and General Electric were ali n
shade lower, but the trading was light.
Jersey Central was the feature OF the
Anthracite Coalers. the Stocks falling
1% to 1919 on the u~nfavorable January
statement, net earnings for that period
having decreased 1916, 800, as compared
with 1896. The other Anthracites pre-
sented little Of interest. The bank
statement was looked upon as rather
favorable but it had no influence on
speculation. An expansion in loans of
ASP. 100 was attributed in a measure
to the increased activity at the stock
exchange. Specie increased S1,1c0. 500.
but there was a loss in legal tenders of
1851 800. The loss in surplus reserve
was 81, 964. 050. bringing the amount hold
in excess OF the 25 per cent. required
by law down to $50, 4S3. 1926. This time
last year the reserve was S23. 234. 500.
Near the close stocks were inclined to
rally on covering Of shorts. but In the
final transactions the market was
barely steady in tone. Active stocks
lost Il to " per cent, While st. Paul
and Omaha preferred. which IS rarely
traded in. gained 2 per cent. Transac-
tons were light, amounting to "a. poe
shares. The inactivity was due mainly
to the desire to await further develop
ments in the Cretan situation before
entering into new engagemants. Bonds
were weak in tone. The sales asgre-
gated 81, OLA, 900.

A Highwayman Bound Over to Court.

In the city court yesterday julius
Coachman, colored, charged with high
way robbery, in holding up w. A. Nc
Quillan. colored. in Burr & Bailey's
alley, and with a pistol compelling him
to hand him IS, was given a hearing
before Mayor Harriss.
McQuillan testified as to the facts
lated heretofore in The Messenger. His
testimony was su%bstantiated mainly by
Lum Travis, colored, who differed with
him in saying that Will Bell, Coach
mans accomplish, was the one tina
got the money.
Coachman testified. He said his
home was in South Carolina; that he
had never been in the South Carolina
penitentiary but served a while on ~
changing for shooting a man. He
said he could not deny that he was up
the alley with McQuillan and Bell, and
said Bell got the IS from McQuillan by
some trick at cards. He denied that he
played policeman and made McQuillan
given up the IS. He said he was once
employed as a train hand by Captain
j. WI LaMotte on the Wilmington, CO.,
umbia and Augusta railroad.
Captain LaMotte was examined and
gave Coachman a a character.
The mayor bound him over to the
criminal court in a bond of $500 which

witnesses examined? inquired the
mayor.
Mr.. BeIlamy answered: The defence
will offer no testimony"
Mr.. Ricaud. without getting up from
his seat, remarked to the mayor that
he did not propose to address the court,

suppose it was necessary TO make In
remarks, but he would say that the
accused was a policeman when he (Mr.
