NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Oct 27.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at a decline of 2Qit
points, and while less active than yester
day, ruled very unsettled and until the
break in the last hour was very irregular.
The initial declines were in sympathy with
lower cables than expected in connection
with very heavy receipts for the day ana
better weather which encouraged realizing
by recent buyers. On the other hand the
expectations was for bullish weekly
crop report from New Orleans at midday
aud there was of course great uncertainty
over the attitude of the leading bull inter
ests These at first seemed inclined to
support the market and Immediately fol-
lowing the call the nearby positions rallied
a few points but were soon weakened
again and ruled irregular until midday.
Then the weekly crop report was read,
showing damage by frosts but speaking
favorably of the progress made n picking
and prices rallied few points only to
break again and in the afternoon to sell
off sharply with the market finally barely
steady at practically the lowest point OF
the session or net 16 to "a points lower.
Sales were estimated at $4,000 bales A
factor in the decline was rumor to the
effect that Liverpool crop export now
in this city after his annual tour through
the belt was to issue crop estimate, call
ing for 11,250,000 bales Later this report
was denied, but it was understood thai
the party in question would issue an esti-
mate in the near future, and in The after
noon houses with European connections
were free sellers of the late winter and
spring months. Spot markets were rather
less active, according to official reports and
price changes were irregular, some markets
being 1-16 lower, while others were 1-Sc
higher.

Cotton Letter.

Raleigh. n. c.. Oct. 27.-The market to-
day showed the effects of profit taking.
After such an advance as has taken place
recently, the reaction was IN order. With
large receipts and a full movement, prices
may work lower. There was a general
feeling that in the event of Mr.. Bustoa
coming out with an estimate of II ,250,000
bales as expected, there would be a set
lack This was partly responsible for
the selling today Shortly after the open
ing the rumor of this estimate was en-
culated and several large blocks of cotton
came out. While the best people were
not taking much stock IN estimates over
II goo coo bales. it was known that Liver
Lool would be apt to feel the effects 81
SO large an estimate at this time. Prices
have advanced about a cent pound,
the short interest has been cleaned out
and now the trade will be called upon to
take care of a lot of cotton the South IS
willing TO sell at ten cents, which was
not for sale at 914c But on the otheE
hand the factors under the cotton position
are such that lot of buying will develop
should prices break much below ten
cents This was noticed on the break to-
day when buying orders were placed IN
the market on a basis of ten cents for
January and March. The appearance Of
frost at this early date makes the ques-
ton OF production serious one and those
who need cotton are not likely to run
chances Reports from the South today
sowed general steadiness in the spot mark
ct. A peculiar feature of the situation has
teen the failure of spot markets to break
It must not be forgotten that the local
stock of cotton is small and cotton can
not be brought here from the South at
prevailing prices This will prevent short
selling for some time to come. On amy
good break we would pick up cotton.

DEATH HIDDEN BEHIND TRAIN.
Two Mexicans in Pueblo Wait for a
Freight to Pass and Step in
Front of PASSENGER.

Sebro Ortega, who has but recently
come to this city, was instantly killed
at the Fifteenth street crossing by Rio
Grande passenger train No. II, says a
special dispatch from Pueblo, Colo.
Desiderio Segura, a Mexican COM
panion, was struck by the same train
and was injured seriously. According
to the story of the injured man, the
two waited at the crossing for the east
bound freight train to pass. They
started to cross Immediately after the
freight had passed and did not notice
the passenger train. Ortega was
knocked nearly forty feet and was
dead when picked up. His body was
badly bruised and lacerated. The in
jured man was taken care of by friends
in the Mexican settlement near the
tracks.
Coroner Fugard decided that no in
quest was necessary, as the accident
was evidently due to lack Of caution
on the part of the two men. They have
no relatives here.

COFFEE HEART.

The "Dietetic and Hygienic Ga

cent ISSUE: Medical examiners for
life insurance companies have added
the term Coffee Heart to their regular
classification of the functional de-
rangements of that organ. Its effect is
in shortening the long beat of the
heart. Coffee Topers, they say, are
plentiful and as much tied to their
cups as the whisky topper. The effect
OF coffee upon the heart is more last
ing and consequently worse han that

Ladoga, Ind, tells how he treats such
cases. He has had many such. He
says: Il will mention one case in my

NEW PASS RULE.
Rock Island win Not Issue ANIMALS to
Country Editors.

Among the many new rules with
which the Rock Island began the new
year is one concerning the annual
passes and trip passes which were for.
merly issued to the editors and EN-.
ployes of weekly papers.
Formerly the editor of a weekly pap.
er was given an annual pass the first
of every year and at his request any
member of his family or any employe
of his paper was issued a trip pass at
any time. This was fruit for the editor
and his flock, but the old and beautiful
custom has passed away and
many a man who in the old days was
wont to jump on and off a train when
ever he pleased, mourns its loss.
The editor of the weekly is now Civ.
en- what is called a semi-annual pass,
which has to be renewed every six
months.
The ~semi-annual is all right and al.
though it is not quite as convenient as
the annual, it makes things easy for
the editor when he takes a notion that
he wants to go some place.
But the new rule has one drawback
tthat is, for the editor, which is really
that part of it which hits the hardest.
Under the new rule the members of
the editors family or the employees of
his paper must pay half fare rates.
The only reason given for the
change is that all eastern roads are do
ing the same thing and that the Rock
Island does LOT wish to be behind the
times.
The real reason for the change is no
doubt that the railway company thinks
that the editors have not been giving
value received for transportation fav-
ors. The editors are to be required to
give more space than formerly in eX-
change for what they get, and they
will get less for what they give.
Semi-annual passes are preferred by
railways for editors because of the fact
that it is easier to keep in touch with
the holders of the passes when they
have to be renewed every six months.

6%riquettes, the New SIPS a Ton Fuel,
Is Satisfactory.

10 Sda'S'oSeoTy'
A test of Ignite briquettes has been
made on a locomotive of the 500 line
at Minneapolis. About one ton Of the
fuel was used and the engine ran TWEEN
ty miles on that amount. which is
somewhat better than the mileage
made per ton of soft coal.
The b~riquettes were in bloc kform
2x4x6 inches and burned without clink.
ers and with little ash or smoke. When
the furnace vas once supplied the fire
required little attention, and it was
not necessary to add fuel often. II is
expected that further tests will be
made with larger quantities of these
briquettes. which are made by a secret
process devised by a Minneapolis man
If their trial is successful a briquette
factory will be established at the Zig.
