SHORT STORIES
 OF THE DAY
Had to Shift Himself

My father was a sturdy Hudson river Dutchman," said United States Senator Chauncey Depew in telling the Chicago Daily News how he earned his first dollar. He believed boy would never amount to anything unless thrown upon his own re- sources He gave me an education at Yale and dn the profession of law and as soon as I had finished my studies he told me I should never receive another dollar from him as long as he lived.
 He stuck to that determination like a Spartan. I had the usual troubles of a struggling young lawyer, and sometimes thought had greater than others. My tribulations were so acute at times that they caused my father to cry. but he would not help me. thought he acted harshly, and ann afraid that for the time lost my affections, but have since blessed him. I know that, with my easy-going disposition, I never would have amounted to much. yet I have not had the sand to treat my own boy that way.

IRREGULARITY IN
 COTTON MARKET November Prices Unchanged But
 Others Close Higher. GENERAL DOWNWARD TREND There Was Considerable Realizing and More or Less Belief That Small
 Advance Was Largely Due
 to Manipulation
GENERAL DOWNWARD TREND

New York, March 10.-The market for cotton was excited and irregular at the opening of business this morning with prices unchanged for November, but any where from one to fourteen points higher for the rest of the list, with the advance chiefly on the old crop positions.
 The subsequent course of the market was irregularly downward under realizing and a more or less general belief that the ad- vance at Liverpool, as well as in our own market, was largely the result of manipu- lation. The local market declined five to seven points right after the first call; but was again made firmer by renewed support. the source of which was to be traced. as many thought to a very active banking house more heavily interested in the mar ket than any other concern in the trade, and heretofore a ruling factor independ-. entity of the regulation influences; produe- ing fluctuations in one direction or the other at will. perforce of an enormous op-s eration. The English advance of eight to ten points in futures and 1sd in spoIts re- ported at the opening this morning was also said to be largely due to the opera tions of this concern and its cooperating forces in Europe and the south.
 At Il o'clock the trading level here was eight to ten points above the closing of yesterday on the old crop positions, and two to three points above on the new crop positions.
 The market for futures closed very steady with prices net five to nineteen points high CT.

OUTSIDE BUYING
 IN WALL STREET But Trade Was Largely Confined
 to Professionals. SUGAR WAS IN DEMAND
The Weak Character of the Bank State ment Was So Confidently Fore seen That 1t Had Little Elf
 feet on Closing Up

New York, March 10-The trading in stocks was largely confined today to op- erations by board room operators, as has been the case during the whole week. But there was some small butt significant buying from outside sources, especially manifest interest taking of fractional lots of stocks for investment which proved attractive at the present level of prices ito those who are mot dependent upon ordinary money market vicisitudes for holding stocks for the divi- dend returns which they hold.
 The wide distribution of the dealings also added to the healthy appearance of the market. The character of the bank state ment was So confidently foreseen that it's appearance was not awaited for the clos- ing up of professional contracts .-
 The traders have been on the short side of the market quite uniformly during the week, so that the closing up of contracts stiffened the market very appreciaply. Sugar and Peoples Gas were notably In demand before the bank statement. but were sold off again, together with the local traction stocks. The obvious unwillinguess of prices to yield on the bank statement drove the bears to cover again. Sugar ad- vanced an extreme SIS and Peoples Gas 2, and the whole list rose to the highest leVei of the morning with more show of animal tion in the dealings than has been evident for several days. The bank return was ful- ly as weak as was expected.
 Railroad bonds have been in good de- mand part of the buying being attributed to the pressure of funds realized from the selling of government bonds by investment holders to banks. United States old As and 5s advanced 1 per cent. 9s, coupon, 4, and 3s registered, A New As coupon declined 5s, and new As registered and the 2s F in the bid price.

How He Once Earned a Princely Fee

Senator Depew told of how he once earn ed princely fee. 1.-The heirs to an estate,' he said, 'came to me for aid. Their inher- ited property showed more debt than assets and there were many legal complications. The whole burden was placed in my hands. I fought off the ruin, the foreclosures, the sacrifices, settling claims and suits. I res- cued and nursed securities, and then took charge of the free property. I doubled it, and I received from the heirs $200,0O0 though I never presented bill.
 "The heirs received $4,0000OO instead of nothing"
