 NEW ORLEANS, Jan 23.-The early action of Liverpool today was quite to the liking of bears. Deliveries were reported 3ls-64 lower and spots market down ll6. but bulls were not dismayed; in fact this occurrence spurred them to renewed activity and the results of their efforts was shown in partial re- covery of the decline abroad. while Cn this side after opening transactions had been effected around yesterdays prices, though Liver pool s course was expected to occasion lower quota tions the arket took a very steady tone under the influence of reports that prominent bull leader in New York had e.timated the crop at $500, 900 bales stating also that advices from FPS interior towns show the stocks on hand to be 500 900 bales less than last ''Aar, with only 8 per rent. of tho crop re- maining plantations. Prices began to ad- NaAce Immediately in response to this infor- mation and the selling pressure had disap- peaTed steady rise of some l2 points was established in a short space of time and a quiet condition followed.
 Closing quotations are | O points higher than yesterday
 While the continued heavy movement is prob ably much of surprise to side the other, the ready recuperative power of the market is one of the marvels of the season. This invariable resistance to any pressure. especially at times when owing weakness seems to be in order, is rather disparaging to short sellers and serves to increase caution in such operations. The origin for this dis play of strength is eagerly sought for. an in the meantime the belief Is growing apace that requirements for consumption are quite in line with the probable extent of the supply

WAR ON YELLOW FEVER.
New Orleans Commission Advises
 Use of Screens.

New York Tribune.
 The commission composed of Professor George E: Beyer of the Department of Pothier. assistant pathologist of the same hospital, and Dr. I. l. Lemann, assist ant demonstrator of microscopy in the completed its investigation regarding steps to be taken to stamp out yellow fever in New Orleans. This commission was appointed by the Parish Medical Society of New Orleans, and 1t has been assisted in it's work by the Surgeon Generals office at Washington. Its re- port shows that the commission Is seem- ingly satisfied that the pathogenic or- lcteroides of Saranelli. A species of mos- quito known as the stegomyia, fascinati, they think, conveys the disease from one person to another. This mosquito though doubtless originally a native of tropical America, is now so abundant in New Orleans that its larvae were found by the commission in the water of 12S put of 210 cess receptacles. such as cis- terms, barrels, troughs and kettles.
 The commission says this mosquito breeds in cisterns bv preference. and unfortunately, in the suburbs of New Orleans it does not restrict itself to such receptacles. The larvae under favorable conditions are full grown in from 1-2 to days. The eggs hatch in from 10 to plete imago within two days. Conse- quently this species requires for its de- velopment from two to four days less than the ordinary species known as culex lJungens: the most common kind, and fully two weeks less than any anophiles. Hence. even stricter measures are re- duired for it's suppression than of any other mosquito, and even close meshed screens are necessary to bar it's access to dwellings and cisterns. It is essentially diurnal, though during the height of its flight, it is very troublesome in the even ing and night.
 The commission thinks that the chief danger of infection from 1t is in the day. time. and especially during the afternoon hours. The commission recommends, in brief, that screens be put over cisterns and cesspools. The report seems to in- dicate that while the efforts to drive out this species of moyquito from New Or leans by use of screens may bring about a welcome change. 1t will be difficult to eradicate them from points less care fully watched outside of New Orleans A report of the commiSsio ons findings has been sought for and received by many phygicians in this city.

MARKET FOR FUTURES BIG PORT RECEIPTS AND BEAR
 IS HCABLES. Conservative New Buying and Shift of the Shorts to Cover Brought
 About a Charge for
 the Better.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The cotton market opened steady with prices unchanged to 2 points lower, an indiffer ent response to big port receipts and bearish Liverpool cables Almost immediately there was decided change for the better in the general ruling of the market on conservative new buying and d shift of the shorts to cover. Rumors that the receipts were likely to be smaller for the rest of the week and reports that Southern mar kets were stubbornly resisting the influence of lower speculative markets combined to investors and to give bull leaders new incen- tive. Finding our market in no humor to fur ther decline, Liverpool slowly reacted and closed but ih points under the previous days figures Within the first hour it became ap- parent that considerable short lines had been put out during yesterdays break by the scalp. ing contingent and some of the leading mar ket operators. Moreover, there was every evil dence that weak longs had been shaken out and that little long cotton remained to be sold unless some new factors of bearish importance within the first half hour and for the rest of the morning continued to improve. By midday 8. 0 had been reached with the undertone still firm. Shorts weer in nervous frame of mind while bull interests were giving the market every possible support A light Houston es timate for tomorrows receipts with bullish weather reports from Texas were potent in- huences. Early In the afternoon the market had another sharp advance on active covering and new buying, started by light estimate for tomorrow's New Orleans receipts May the rest of the day little attempt was made to bring about setback. The market was finally quiet and steady with prices net 5d points higher.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
MARION, Ind. Oct. H.-Jealous and mad
dened because his wife refused to live with
him, John Sterrenburg, aged fifty-two,
this morning murdered her. and tried TO
commit suicide when closely pursued by
the officers. The murder and attempt at
self-destruction occurred at o'clock this
morning about five miles west of Marion
and one mile south of Sweetser. The muir
derer is in the county Jail in an uncon-
scious condition, and IL is said that one of
che bullets he fired Is lodged In his brain.
Surgeons, however. express the opinion
that he will recover.
George Sterrenburg, son OF the muir
derer. was at work In the fields about a
half mile from the house when he heard
the shot fired which ended the life OF his
mother. He started toward the house. but
when he saw his father coming across the
field with two revolvers in his hands he
hastily unhitched his team and mounting
one of the horses rode to the home of
neighbors and soon there was a posse OF
armed farmers In search OF the murderer.
The Marion authorities were notified and
took up the trail. Sterrenburg was found
living In a field of corn with a bullet hole
in his temple and two revolvers clutched in
his hands. He was faint, but inquired IL
his wife was dead. He was told that she
was and he replied: We'll, 1 am glad OF
II. I intended to kill her
sterrenburg and wife had lived together
for twenty-five years. They formerly lived
at Omega, ILL.,, but moved to Chicago and
last spring came out to Grant county They
rented farm of 160 acres and were pros
porous. but being addicted to drink, Ster-
renburg was cruel TO his family. and his
wife and sons asked that he leave them.
He had been living in Marion, but yester-
day he went to the home of his wife and
sons near Sweetser 10 get his clothing and
over night and the son had intended to
bring him to the city this morning.
