New York, May 16.-The home demand
had been Of about late average proportions
in this market, but reports from retail
ers here and elsewhere are more en-
couraging. There has not been any
change in the tone or price of any de-
partment in staple cottons. Print cloths
inactive. Fall River manufacturers meet
tomorrow to consider the situation
Prints quiet and easy. Staple ginghams
unchanged. Fine ginghams scarce. Cot
ton Innings quiet and irregular. Hosiery
and underwear in rather better demand
than of late.
COTTON.
New York, May 16.-Operations In cot
ton futures from start to finish today
were conservative and mostly in the way
of settlement by room brokers. Shorts
were the markets chief supporters. On
the opening the tone was quiet with
prices unchanged to one point higher.
Soon afterwards prices began to settle
under fitful room selling and Southern
selling with July finally off to 7.55. The
new crop positions also followed a con-
trary course to influences and after slight
ly sympathizing with the weakness in
ing and worked up to above last nights
closing. This strength was quite out of
line with reports of soaking rains in part
of the Southwest belt. Liverpool quick
ly conformed to the lower near months
prices here. and at the close was a trifie
below the previous days final bids. In
the afternoon pit shorts became nervous,
and in an effort to cover sent July rap
idly to 1859 and October to ia. There
was nothing in the way Of news or out
side buying orders to cause this change
on the part of room brokers. Before the
close a slight reaction had occurred under
fresh selling for both accounts, based on
belief that the short interests had been
evened up and a long account created.
Again it was feared that Liverpool would
be sensitive tomorrow to the wet weather
forecast from the Southwest. Closed
steady with prices net two to eight points

A REMARKABLE CATCH.
Fish Story That Is Good Until the
Next One Is Told.

Recently there has been another
record breaker in trout fishing in
Lake Keuka, says the Rochester Dem
ocrat. For several days it has been
nothing unusual for fishermen to take
seven or eight within an hour or so.
Almost everybody who tried got full
share, and some were fine specimens.
weighing from five to seven pounds
1t is told of a man from Corning that.
while fishing near Bluff Point, he
hooked a trout which weighed, he
thinks, about nine or ten pounds, but
IN his excitement he lost the fish as
he was about to take it into the boat,
with three branches of his Seth Green
rig.
The following day one of the vet
eran fishermen Of the lake hooked a
trout near the same point. As he
landed the fish he was much surprised
to find a second hook in the fsh's
mouth. He started to draw in the
loose line from this second hook, and
was again surprised to find that there
was still another trout on the line
which he had tished up. He landed
this fish and was nearly overcome
when, from the second fish, he dis.
covered a third line upon which wa:
a third fish. The three fish, weigh.
ing 26 pounds, were safely landed
and were taken to Keuka, where it il
said they were viewed by a large mum,
