MOLINE MENTION.
May Have Died in Wreck.

Mr.. and Mrs. L. p Nelson. living at
1890 Fourth avenue are considerably
worried over the whereabouts of their
eldest son. Edward Nelson. who left
in May for the west to spend the sum-
mer. Since last July. now over three
months. the parents. or no one else i'll
the city. have heard a word from him.
His sister Miss Helen Nelson. has left
for Omaha where she and her rela
tlves have instituted a search for his
whCrCab bouts. but as yet no trace OF
him can be found His father will
probably leave in a few days for the
west to look for him. Edward left
Moline in May and went TO Omaha
where he stayed with relatives for
some time. In July he left his home
there and went TO a large ranch in
the vicinity of Sterling, Colo. but left
his trunk with his relatives, leaving
word that he would soon be back af-
ter il 1t will he remembered that in
July fearful wreck occurred near
Sterling, Coo. in which several per
sons were mangled and burned so bad
~ that they could not be identified.
Two days after the wreck had occur
red his folks in Moline received a
letter from him. mailed at Sterling
Colo. in which he stated that he would
leave that night for Denver. where
he would spend a few weeks. From
that time until today not a word has
been heard from him unless some
friend of his in Moline unknown 10
his parents has heard from him. TAX
ing in consideration the date of the
wreck and the time and place at which
the letter was written. combined with
the fact that he left his trunk and has
never called for it. would naturally
cause any one TO worry. Edward is
we'll known in Moline, having lived
here all his life and was for several

COTTON.


 New York. Aug. 24.-The deteriora- ton reported in the cotton crop seems to be so general and far-reaching that now regard the prospect of even a moderate crop as doubtful. Taking the belt as a whole, the Atlantic States seem to be the only section from which even an average crop can be expected. Should an early frost or dry weather inJure the prospects in these States. 1t is probable that cotton would go to extreme prices and stay there, as five short crops would convince the world that the maximum productive capacity of the cotton belt has been strained.
 Under the circumstances. l feel jus tified in advising producers of cotton in the South not to sell their crop ex- cept at full prices. If any unity of action in this respect can be secured, l think that 12 cents a pound can be le- ultimately and commercially realized for this years cotton crop and this without manipulation or resort to speculative coercion.

 The early corn market had a very firm undertone regardless of the fact that the weather was all that could be desired. Sept. opened unchanged to 1-8c higher at 55 3-8 10 65 12 and Dec up to 1-S to 1-8 off at 54 1S to 54 3-s Firm cables and small receipts, the chief sustaining factors, could not, however, withstand the effect of the declining tendency in wheat and prices gradually waned. Corr yielded so slowly, however, that 1t seemed as if the holders of large lines were still hoping for some accident before the crop reaches maturity. Sept. closed at 53 3-4 and Dec. at 52 7-S and both were weak. Receipts 108 cars. Oats could not wholly resist the effect of the heaviness in wheat although the loss sustained was comparatively light Both Sept and Dec. started at top and closed at bottom prices.

take their losses and quit. Western operators were conspicuous buyers here today. The absence of sellers was at times very noticeable. After prices had advanced about 45 points. however, there was little halt in the upward movement and wave of sell ing by floor traders started in. They remembered that yesterday afternoon after rise of 50 points there was reac- tion of 70 points and they expected to see chance for another such good scalp today This time. however, their reckoning was faulty, for after a small reaction of ten to fifteen points the market took the bit into its teeth again and closes practically at the top of the day fully 50 points higher than great strength was in the positions from October and while August ad- vanced 26 points and September 4o
 some of the telegrams from North Texas told of great deterioration in that section which heretofore was It is true that for several weeks past we had such accounts and believing in that have consistently advised stick ing to the long side. Now after the market Is up a cent and half. the trade is willing to believe the reports which had been before them only to be disregarded for the past three weeks. The market has now had a rise of a cent and a half. The short interest have been unquestionably greatly re- duced There Is still danger of further advance in view of the ab- sence of any stocks of cotton and the temptation to manipulate. It is already rumored that a prominent bull has made arrangements to take up the cotton on any tenders on September contracts that may be issued next Monday. the first notice day. With prices at present level we must look beyond the turmoil in the different ex- changes to see what the producer in-
 tends doing. If he becomes a free
 seller for forward delivery at these prices then 1t will be well not to get bullish. but until there is strong eyi- dence of such forward selling prices are likely to advance still further.
