STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York April 13.-All other issues
We're obseured in to-day's stock market
by the consideration of the decision
against the legality of the Northern Sc
curities Company Apparently the speed
lative community had worked itself into
an assurance that the decision might not
vitality affect the standing of the COM
pany or at any rate that the intrinsic
value of the constituent elements of the
company would be unimpaired under the
decision. AS the London Stock Exchange
remained closed to-day the local market
opened again without any opportunity
for impression from that quarter. The
result was an extremely feverish and
unsettled tone in the early transactions,
but determined support was manifest and
was effective in checking the first de-
cline In fact, some prominent stocks
started upwards from the opening This
appearance of resisting power caused
alarm amongst the bears for fear that
the effect of the decision had been ex-
hausted in the sharp selling movement
of last Thursday. The ample time given
since then to mature plans for the pro-
lection of the market and for the pass
ing of the impulsive period of alarm ad-
led to the timidity of the bears and their
operations were all on the buying side
at first. AS soon as the course of the
Northern Securities stock in the curb
market became known, however prices
on the Exchange began to crumble. With
the exception of short intervals due to
occasional bear covering, the rest of the
day was given up to drastic liquidation.
The market rallied late in the final hour
on the taking of profits by room shorts,
but the selling was renewed at the high
level and prices turned downwards again
closing only a fraction above the lowest
The days declines ranged all the way
from 2 to ) points for the leading ac-
tive stocks and extended TO nearly %
points in some exceptional cases. Wells
Fargo dropped 1912, Great Northern, pre-
ferred, Lackawanna and American EX~

S%, Reading 81 Baltimore and Ohio and
New Haven 5. Special weakness was
perceptible IN stocks in prospective plans
for merger. or which are supposed TO be
vulnerable to legal process under Thurs
days judicial decision. The large de-
clines in the group, st. Louis and San
Francisco, Union Pacific, the railroads
available for the expected Southern S.
curities Company, the anthracite Goa
and Pennsylvania and it's affiliated COM
panies were traceable TO the anxieties
aroused by this decision. Northern Sc
curlties itself, which closed on Thursday
after the publication of the decision al
1031a. made successive downward plunges
to "a just before the close. with the last
price at 944 The course of this stock
neutralized all the reassuring express
sions which had been busily circulated
by many important interests in the
financial world since Thursday. 1t could
not be learned that the banks We're
making any discrimination against loans
in which this stock figures as collateral
There was no pressure in fact by the
banks to reduce outstanding loans. and
money on call could be had from 6 per
cent downwards throughout the day

NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, April 13.-The cotton mark
ct opened steady with prices 243 points
higher, and after a day of excitement as
regards the May and July options, closed
steady at from to % points advance.
Naturally the interest among operators
centered chiefly about these two options,
both of which made new record prices,
the former selling up "a points above the
close Thursday, and July as much.
Later months being less affected by the
influences governing nearby positions,
We're relatively quiet all day with a net
advance of from to Z points. The re-
ports concerning the manipulated months
were that the bull leader was giving
active support to May while shorts nota-
bly, in the Wall Street district, were
leading buyers of the July. Best point in
both these deliveries were attained in
the last half hour when a number OF
room shorts who had held out all day
in anticipation of q setback lost heart
and covered. The bull leader operated
in person and the principal bull operator
OF New Orleans was also active. Spot
houses were rather free sellers of May
at above 1915, the inference being that
deliveries were intended Weather con
ditions We're unfavorable for the move
ment, being showery in all parts of the
South. The absence of English cables
restricted activity attending the May ana
July upturns Port receipts of 11,94S
bales were cOntrasted with II ,637 bales
last year and estimates at leading points
for Tuesday were heavier than expected.
Spot cotton, while quiet, advanced 10
points to the basis of 1866 for middling

came firm with prices unchanged to &c.

Especial to News and Observer

New York, April 13-The three DAYS
rest evidently did not bring much COM
fort to shorts for they have been COW
ering freely throughout the day, putting
up prices on themselves, over 20 points
on May and July. There was good rea-
son for their uneasiness, since Southern
spot markets were up fully Is cent, and
there was an eager demand from spin
ners who. however, seemed to be only
reluctantly met by holders who are dis
posed to expect fancy prices for their
property. On every rise there is a great
deal of liquidation and with the interest
gradually being reduced there is less
fear of a collapse, such as often follows
strong bull campaign. The "Chroni-
Gle of Saturday last commenting on the
cotton yet to be picked in certain parts
of Arkansas, takes issue with the CEN
sus bureau on the size of the crop and
expresses the belief that it may yet reach
II 500 900. Today's advance is a striking
reply to such figures, and is accepted as
an expression of public faith in a yield
approximating the estimate of the CEN
sus. The real impelling power seems to
be the lack of sufficient spot offering
to meet the demand from spinners This
fact makes the position of shorts very
precarious, especially as it is claimed
that continental merchants are short of
July in this market as a hedge against
cotton in warehouse ON the other side,
truly most uncomfortable position.

work so disastrousy.
The young school-teacher OF Green
point who fell dead at the end Of bis

the New York Herald. He was evil
IDENTITY overweight with anxiety, and
his crippled heart was unable to bear
the constant strain. Unlike mere
muscular exertion, the mental excit-
ability was beyond control, especially
when the new environment was the
persistent disturbing element. This
happens sometimes in the pulpit, on
the lecture platform, and even before
the footlights. Numerous examples
have been noted from time to time
The preventives are in the line of
avoiding all overexcitement and of
needing all ominous warnings. This is

Der. 1t has lately been demonstrated
that tree may be brought to earth
quickly and effectually by means OF an
electric current coursing along tine
platinum wire which is placed in con
tact with the tree trunk. The platinum
wire becomes white hot from the ac-
ton OF the current and in turn literally
burns its way through the tree. The
operation only takes about one-tenth
OF the time required to saw the tree
down. and the labor involved is almost
nothing. The above described method
has been tried with success in France.
and its introduction into other coun-
tries is looked for at an early date. -

aatfc Cultivation.

When Z new meadow is to be made
it is advisable to see that the land has
most thorough preparation. A meadow
that Is permitted to become such with
out proper preparing is likely to have
characteristics that will remain with 1t
as long as il is meadow. We have
seen such meadows and have worked
in them. and can testify that they are
hard to NOW, hard TO rake and hard to
travel over. Doubtless the plants find
1t hard sometimes to make a growth

might have been made otherwise by
little extra work with the harrow

abandonment of grass the land has
borne a corn crop, its irregularities are
very likely to be intensified. The old
stalks are seen in the field Of grow

humid country, the chances of its gull
lying are increased Sometimes these
gullies develop into considerable water
courses during the few days of heavy
rainfall
II pays to put a good deal OF work

meadow before seeding. Ii the disk

made to do good service here. The
