 New York, April 11.-It was about the dullest market for some time, with news as scarce as the trading was light. The few outside orders received seemed to be about equally divided on both sides of the market. Liverpool closed rather weak but the local crowd is nervous as regards the May position. The short interest in May is quite large and scattered while the long interest is concentrated in a few strong hands. This being relatively the lowest market, and realizing the stock of cotton here will be down to very low basis before delivery day comes around the shorts are adverse to pressing that side further. though trying to talk. the market down. It was reported from Lon don that a large cotton house in Alexan- dria had failed. but the news regarding this was meagre. 1t had practically no effect on the market.
 Private advices were that 1t is not a bad failure.
 The bulk of the movement at present, and probably the balance of the season, will be from west of the Mississippi river.
 This is about the only section that has any supply of consequence left. With a continuation of the good export demand, and any improvement in the demand for spot cotton from Northern spinners which will follow the indicated improvement in cotton goods circles, and Improvements change in the price of spot cotton would problbiy be in the direction of. an ad- vance, though many look for only nar-

|CTTON fUFURES | l HAD 4 BAD DAY IPsces went Up Ton Momentary Il N Scurry of Shorts tANY PERIODS OF SHORTS By Midday a Loss of Several Points Was Apparent-Good Weather In
 South Was Responsible
 for the Drop.

New York, April 11.-Cotton in the New York market touched the high point of yesterday again today on a momentary sourry of shorts for cover. but taken as a whole. the market showed more strength than in several days. Periods of apathy inevitably meant sagging prices. and a faint show of bear aggression. Much of the time the bull forces were obliged to support the market to prevent a serious break. Sentiment in conservative circles was disposed to disregard talk of ma- terially higher prices in the near future, owing to the fact that the short interest has been greatly reduced by the late ad- vances.
 The opening was steady, with prices point lower to 2 points higher. Soon after the call shorts became restless, and bought summer months In large amounts. This demand with fair bull trading and some European buying caused a rise to s.10 for May and corresponding improve ment In the rest of the list Liverpool after opening about steady, took a lean ing toward the bull side and this strengthened the market here. The close of the first hour marked the turning point in the advance, as selling orders came in from the south. and the alarm of shorts subsided.
 By noon a loss of several points was ap- parent. Further large receipts south dor mnnt spot markets and fairly good wealth CT. were In part responsible for the loss though a severe break in Liverpool was really the dominating influence. The sud- den reaction abroad was attributed to the failure of a prominent Alexandria cotton house. During the afternoon the local market was very quiet, and aside from a slight rally soon after the noon hour, fol- lowed a narrow rut. Closed quiet, points higher to 2 points lower.

ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.
William H Barber Meets Death In Frye
Bruins Sheer Camp

William H. Barber, sheep herder for
Frye, Bruhn 4 Co. at their camp at the
head of the Wenas, accidentally shot
himself at noon last Tuesday, June 20,
1901, from the effects OF which he died
at 6 a. m. on Wednesday. He lived
alone in tent eight miles from the last
settler on the creek, and at noon went
out to the woodward to chop some wood
presumably in preparation for meal.
In holster under the left arm he car
ried "A calibre revolver, and while
STOPPING over to cut the wood the revolt
yer slipped out and dropped to the
ground. The hammer struck the blade
OF the axe, discharging loaded shell.
The ball struck Barber in the abdomen
about an inch and half to the left Of
the navel and passed upward and came
out through the left kidney.
Nobody was about at the time and the
victim, realizing that the wound was
mortal, crawled to his tent and lay down
to die, expecting no one along that way
till night. But by chance n. w. Brown
| lee, who works for the same company,
came along few minutes after the acct
dent. He went out and got help and at
p. m. they started to carry Mr.. Barber
to the home of MIR. Hudson, eight miles
away. They arrived there late at night.
In the meantime DIR. r. +. Gordon of
this city was summoned. He arrived
there about a. M, but the man was in
such condition that he could give him
only temporary relief from pain, and he
! died at about & a. m.
The body was brought to the city at
p. m. Wednesday and taken to the I'M
dertaking rooms Of Flint 4 Shaw, from
which place he was buried today. The
deceased was about 35 years old and has
no friends in this state. His parents live
in Oklahoma.
