New York, June 10-The cotton market
showed every evidence today that there
had been deal of some sort between the
New England bull crowd and the McFad-
den interests and the trade are unable to
form an intelligent idea as to what has
been done. It would seem, however, that
there has been some agreement not to de-
liver cotton on August contracts, because
August has shown greater strength than
any other option since the understanding
was reached yesterday. There was a de-
mand from every quarter Of the globe for
October and December contracts through
out the entire session. Many spectators
were buying them, believing that they
would go 1919 cents or IL cents, while the
shorts were heavy buyers, particularly
Wall Street, who sold the cotton under 8
cents An idea of the magnitude of the
short interest for Wall Street account can
be had by referring to the stock market
for the past ten days. There have been
such enormous losses ON. the short side Of
cotton that hundreds of traders have had
to throw over good securities in order to
meet their obligations. Mr. Sullys pres
cnce on the floor of the Liverpool cotton
exchange today caused a big advance in
that market.

New York. June 10y Yesterdays week
report on cotton attracted general at
.ention throughout the country and
brought about further short covering in
he new crop options at the opening this
morning. While the trade of Monday and
Tuesday was characterized by rather in
ifferent attitude Of operators on the new
rop position il not by an actual bcarish
ceiling and resulting short selling, the ten
lency before the close last night and dur
ng the early dealings this morning rep
esented decided change of attitude on
he part of the majority That is, a great
many who have been short OF the new
-rop positions at lower level concluded
hat they had better get out. This cover
ng carried January to 9.74. But on the
tdvance there was what we consider about
he best short selling that we have ever
seen in the market this season. That is,
several of the larger traders who were
most bullish on October cotton at 81Ac and
who have not been interested in that op-
ion since it crossed 915c were rather act
we sellers above 9a. notwithstanding
he position of the new crop options, this
of course, rather precarious under
taking but it shows that the best senti-
ment is averse to the buying of the new
crop months at any such level as that pre-
vailing today

He constructed portable bee hive and took it to a friend about four miles distant After a few days. when the bees had become familiar with their new surroundings, some of them were removed to a peculiarly constructed receiver.
 From this receiver M. Tagnac let few fly out into room, and soon the
 bees settled on a plate of honey.
 While the bees were eating it he fas-
 tened his dispatches on them. As was
 shown to the writer, the dispatch is magnified six times. They were fas- tened with fine lines, and great care was taken not to put any line on the bees head or wings. When liberated in the open air the bees Immediately flew home. Arriving at the home hive, they wound they could not enter it. be- cause the entrance, had been made So
 small that the paper on their backs prevented them. M. Tagnac' has also
