New High Records i'm the Gotten
Market.

New York, January 21.-New high
records were again made in today's
cotton market. The advance was
not attended by any speculative az
tivity or excitement and in fact the
feature of the market was the ap-
parent absence of public operation
on anything like an important scale,
Immediately following the opening
the active months showed rather q
declining tendency under liquidation
but prices soon rallied and during
the remainder of the day exhibited
an upward tendency with March
reaching 1913, May 14.74 and July
1854. {
h close was within two or three
points of the best and strong at an
advance OF 20 TO As points. Sales
were estimated at 100000 bales.

The holocaust was the most horrible
that has occurred in the vicinity of
New York in years. AT noon the best
estimate placed the number of those
who lost their lives at between 200
and 300. A score of physicians and
nurses and all the police reserves in

the bodies of the dead and succor the
living and injured. The flames were
at first discovered among the life pre-.
servers. The burning preservers were
torn from their places and thrown

the loss of life as it was remarked af-
ter that none of the bodies recovered
were enwrapped in life saving ap-
paratus.
Captain Schsick seeing the flames
called for full speed and headed for
north of Brothers Island. Meanwhile
the scenes on board were frightful.
The flames spread with terri BILE rapid
ity and men, women and children
rushed about in wild fear, shrieking
and in tears. The mothers, as the
flames grew near, gathered children
into their arms and leaped into the
water. Others too dazed TO move

first relief arrived.

500 DEAD!
From Disaster on
Excursion Boat

New York, June 15.-The steam
boat. General Slocum, loaded with
900 excursionists, more than half be-
ing children, took fire above He'll
Gate this morning and was run ashore
on North Brothers Island. Many per.
SONS lost their lives. Many jumped
overheard and were drowned while
others burned to death on the boat.
The telephone operator at North
Brothers Island states that the water
near the island is full of floating bodies.
The General Slocum is an immense
triple deck steamer plying between
New York and Rockaway Beach.
She can easily carry several thousand
persons. She was engaged today to
carry an excursion party up the sound.
Later. 1t is believed that 500 women
and children perished in the General
Slocum disaster. Owing to the swift
ness of the stream and the rocky shore
at He'll Gate it was impossible to sue
cessfully beach the steamer so that
the passengers could get anywhere
near the shores. The steamer was
opposite North Brother Island when
the fire broke out. When the fire
started the passengers hurried to the
hurricane deck, which later collapsed,
crushing many to death. Two hun
dred bodies have been recovered. The
Slocum left the foot of East Third
street for Locust grove at 8 O'Clock
this morning with the members of the
Sunday school classes of St. Mark g
Lutheran church. The owners of the
Slocum have received message stat
ing that the boat has been burned to
the waters edge and that the hulk is
still burning. Their message says a
number of persons jumped overheard
and some were picked up by small
boats. They can give no estimate OF
the number of lives lost.
The General Slocum was one of the
largest excursion boats hailing from
New York city. The fire originated
in the bow of the boat. The captain
attempted to beach her, but the wind
rapidly famed the flames which com
pletely shrouded the boat before she
grounded.
