New York, Feb. 3.-The cotton mar

Opeping prices were 5 to 10 points low

period vigorous selling movement set
in. prices declining so to 60 points in
the active months. Selling was due
mainly tc the belief that the bull cam

be no organized effort to support val

out and save what they had left OF their
former winnings.

ness. and that it has now outstanding
policies in force to the amount of $3,-
100000. and that 1t has not for some
tins been taking any new risks.
The petition states further that the
unpaid claims against the company in
the way of losses. are at the present
time about $4,000. That the company
has only $3.50 in money with which to
pay them. and is without means of
raising any further moneys TO meet its
obligations
Large sums are also due. the petition
says. to various men who have adj
vanced money to the company. and
thess men are now demanding payment
of the Announcements. The petition
makes clear showing that the COM

in order to preserve the estate of the
company It is necessary that its affairs
be at once put in the hands of re-
ceiver and wound up.

chaps strolled by and they all looked
at me, positively, as if they felt like
punching me.
" Huh, thinks he's a winner, hey"

the others, nodding his head back in
my direction.
But even then I couldn't make out
what allied me. After they passed, the
big corner cop began slowly to edge
over in my direction, regarding me
darkly, and as he drew near to where
J stood he several times opened his
mouth as if to address me. But he
didn't say anything, contentlng him

me all the time.

long ride over the dry July roads. Her
hair was somewhat tossed and she
was very much fatigued. She went
down stairs to the Dutch room and
passed the little shop where seven Of
us are kept busy trimming the hair of
the guests.

and the next minute she had entered
the shop.
Addressing the foreman she said:

man to Fenway Court prepared to
shampoo my hair. My maid does not
know how to fix it properly. A
French barber whom 1 engaged once
in Paris performed the only really
satisfactory shampoo that ever 1 en-
joyed.'
The foreman turned to me and said,
angelo, go out with Mrs. Gardner"
I was somewhat confused, but put
on my coat and went upstairs with
her after she had refreshed at the
Dutch room, and climbed upon the box
alongside her coachman.
When she saw me she told me to
come down at once, that was an art
with her so she could instruct me on
the way out.

of shampoo fluid when she gave a
