H. & B. BEERS MARKET LETTER.
Especial to News and Observer

Especial to News and Observer
New Orleans, La, May 1.-Liverpool
was disappointing and advices from there
stated that the class Of buying was poor
and too many stimulating cables We're
being received from America Our
market responded by opening four points
lower on old crop months, but improved
one to two points on new, becoming
simply steady shortly after on fresh
buying. The liberal New Orleans and
Houston estimates coupled with the
easier feeling in spots 0ccasioned a
break later of II to IA points on summer
positions and points on new. Renewed
buying about this time superinduced
slight rally, which, however, was only
momentary, because the collapse in the
International Power Company's stock in
Wall treetS and tight money in New
York again caused easness, making the
net loss II points on OLD crop options and
to points on new. We have advised
our friends against operating in the
summer months on either side, because
We believe present values discount a
great deal in the situation for the mo-
ment. AS our market, however, is such
the highest in the world we suggest to
our customers who have spot cotton for
sale TO send It here. as it can be dis
posed Of to better advantage than any
where else. While recognizing that old
crop months should be let alone unless
one is prepared to receive or deliver ac-
tual spot cotton, we think the heavy
discounts on the new crop months make
them attractive to investors, as there is
less risk and any serious set back to
the next crop would cause a material
enhancement in these positions

JEFFRIES' LIGHT EXERCISE.
FatiRue-Consensus of Opinion Is
Against the Cornishman.

San Francisco, July 23.-Jeffrias in
dulged in but light exercise to-day at
the Reliance Club in Oakland. He
arose early and skipped the rope 1000
times, finishing the ordeal with no vls-
ible sign of exhaustion. He then spent
the lunch hour in comparative quiet.
with Delaney and his retinue Of train
ers, and in the afternoon took a row
on Lake Merritt. He tipped the beam
at 2i7 pounds tonight, but expects to
weigh 21S when he enters the ring on
Friday night.
Fltzsimmons took a jog along the
drives at Golden Gate Park this morn
ing and was rubbed down at the Te M
inal Hotel, after which he partook OF
a hearty luncheon and spared With
Griffin and Andy Gallagher at the
Olympic Club. Experts on the scene
declare that there is apparently notn-
ing further to be desired in the condi-
ton of the men.
The consensus of opinion seems to
be, however that Fitzsimmons' age
and difference in weight is against the
Cornishman, and that Jeffries is the
logical winner. The receipts, the club
managers state. have almost reached
the $4,000 mark. The betting odds
show Jeffries still favorite, at TO
/ and 10lR to 4, with much Fitzsim-
mons money in sight. Sporting men
from all over the country are arriving
and several excursions are expected
to reach here tomorrow.

San Francisco, July 23.-Everything
is now in readiness for the Jeffries-
Fitzsimmons contest on Friday night
and the attendance promises to tax
the capacity of the arena.
1t is not likely that Jeffries will
follow his usual routine of exercises
from now on. He is at his best, and
will do just as he pleases. He is
particularly partial to sprinting at
this stage of the game, as he believes
that by footing it over short stretches
of highway he gains in speed and
strengthens his wind. Jeffres Is bet
ter natured than he was a week ago
He says that he feels stronger and
better than he ever did before going
into any fight, and those who have
been watching his training insist that
he is faster than ever.
Fitzsimmons has also tapered off in
his work. having passed the point
where preliminary exercise will cut
any figure. He says that hereafter he
will do his boxing in private. After
experiencing a temporary boom in bet
ting circles Fitzsimmons' chances have
receded in the estimation of specula-
tors until the original odds of 10 to 1
now prevail.
A slight defect in the ring has been
found, but it will be renedied before
the fight. The heavy tim
bers which support the frame

If there were a struggle in any of the
four corners there was a possibility OF

boxers being injured. To avoid this a

Pittsburg by Man With Whom She
Had Been on n CarOuse.
Pittsburg, July 23.-One of the most
mysterious murders in the city's his
tory was committed tonight in drink
ing room in the rear of the Traction
Hotel. The victim is Agnes King of
139 Crawford street. The murderer,
who escaped, is unknown. The story
is that the woman and man had been
drinking together since Monday at the
different saloons in the neighborhood,
and the carousal ended in a quarrel
this afternoon, which was renewed to-
night, when the couple met on High
street. The woman went into the no.
tel bar and took a seat in the rear
room. The man followed her and ask
ed her if she would keep up the bluff -
This question was repeated
three times, and each time
answered in the negative. Quick
made a lunge at the woman cutting
her under the ear. A second slash
severed the juglar. Then the muir
derer stepped out a side door and es-
capped. At midnight he was still at
large.
The victim died while in the patrol
wagon on the way to a hospital.
The only witness of the murder was
a woman who happened to be in the
room when the couple entered. She
says the whole affair was enacted so
quickly she can give no description of
the murderer.

I'm the side of Prussia by Kinder
Treatment of Her Polish PopuIa-
ton.
Berlin, July 23.-Court Chamberlain
Won Morawski, a Polish landed mag
nate, has appealed to Emperor William
not to visit Posen during the army ma
neuvers to be held in September as
his majesty has planned to do. The
chamberlain fears that some Polish IA
matte might attempt to harm the EN-
peror. Racial feeling is described as
DIT fever heat. and several Berlin jour
nails take the view that 1t would be
unwise for the Emperor to expose him
self unnecessarily.
II is scarcely likely that the En-
peror will act upon the chamberlain's
appeal, because his majesty never per-
mits himself to change his plans on
account of the timidity of his advisers.
He goes anywhere he thinks duty calls
him; and, besides, it is his purpose to
declare the governments Polish policy
while in Polish territory, and his Civ
ing up of personal supervision of the
maneuvers would be unprecedented.
The Polish question is regarded as
the most pregnant in the government S
domestic policy While no observer be-
lieves the Polish agitation can really
amount to much ultimately, IL is en-
barrassing the relations with Austria
and Russia. The Poles in Galcia en-
joy local self government and press
privileges, which are not in vogue in
Prussian Poland, and continual con-
traSts are made in the Austrian press
between the conditions existing in Ga
licia and in the province of Posen that
annoy this government and tend to
weaken the triple alliance Indications
are not wanting that Russia is dispos-
ed to utilize the Polish passion by CIV
ing greater freedom to the Russian
Poles, thus creating along the Russian
frontier a Prussian population in SYM
pathy with Russia. Count Won Bue-
low, the German imperial chancellor is
well aware of the disagreeable fea-
lures of the Polish agitation and 1t is
| quite likely he will devise measures to
| quiet the extreme violence of the Pol
ish feeling.
