John jaeger, well known throughout
the United States as mining stock
brokers and promoters, were arrested

had been made into the business
methods of the Model Gold-mining
Company, of which concern Frank
jaeger is president and treasurer, and
John jaeger secretary. Upwards OF
$500, 900 is involved in the case and
the Federal authorities declare that
sensational revelations will be made
when the prisoners are arraigned in
court. est
The brothers were taken before
United States Commissioner Foote,
where their bonds were fixed at $4,000
each and they were released on ball.

The inspector said:
"These men have been using the
mails to make representations about
all the properties, the only one OF
which our investigations showed had
made money was the McCabe mine
near Prescott, Ariz The government
claims that the resources and profits
have been fictitiously increased and
that the general expense account
which should have been charged
against profits has been enormously
set forth in all advertising matter sent
through the mails for the purpose of
making a good showing for the COM
pany We charge that sales of stock
on the strength of this advertising
matter have been made entirely under
false pretenses.

1.-The arrest of myself and my broth
er is purely spite work. A couple of
dissatisfied stockholders wished to
disrupt the company. We have made
no Misrepresentation and we will

AND COTTON GETS
HIGHER
Futures Soar and Spot
Trots Up the Hill
Over Thirteen.

There was something doing around the
cotton market yesterday.
This something was caused BY the bull
ish Interpretation given to the, govern
ment ginners report which indicated a
small crcp.
The report states that III to December
y the amount ginned was S,S4S,24 bales
as against 9,311, S35 bales up to December
70 of last year. shortage of 463,58S bales.
This indicated a small crop for this
year, for even if tk ceipts after this
equal those of las sss9ar the crop for
19O3-1904 will be only about 100000
bales. This being true the crop is a
small one and the demands for consump-
ton will go way above these figures. This
will send prices up.
But even before this bullish news came
the advices from Liverpool showed an
advance. When the report was issGed
there was a scramble in New York and
Ncw Orleans, the shorts seeking cover.
Cotton went up in bounds till it was fully
a cent in advance of the previous day
and within so to 50 points of the highest
figures of this season.
On the Raleigh market the price again
went up above 13 cents, the highest quo
taton being Is 1-8 cents. The sales were
light, only "A bales being received here
The talk of war in the Far East is a
disquieting feature in the market, even
with the advance of yesterday, and it is
apt to dscountcnance the effect of TIE
ginners' report. When this talk clears
away, and if there be no war, sharp
advance may be expected. AT present
spot prices are expected to vary but lit
tic from yesterdays figures.
