WRESTLING

James J. Rooney, the Chicago wrestler, won
when he gained two falls each out Of James
Crawlcy Of st. Paul. EMIL Silvia of New York
and Mort Henderson OF Rochester. It took Roo
ney seventy six minutes to get the falls required
to win the match. The men had arranged the
match 80 that each Of them was fresh when
he met Rooney for the second fall. Henderson
made the best showing and Rooney came near
losing the match to the Rochester man. There
was considerable dispute in regard to the time.
Henderson claiming that time counted was less
than the actual time on the mat.

RaItimOre PROVISIONS,
stocks and Bonds.

New York, May 9.-The advance in
stocks today represented a re-adJuSt-
ment of the price level as an index of
conditions rather than response to
an important new demand. The re-
adjustment was affected for the most
part in London before trading had
commenced here. AS a consequence
the first prices made here this morn
ing showed yesterdays losses rather
more than recovered. Changes during
the rest of the day were unimpOrtant
fhe change in conditions which this
was designed to measure was the
Quoting of apprehension of an en-
broilment of Great Britain and France
with the respective allies in the pres
ent war over the disputed question
of neutrality. There was some large
buying for London account in this
market during the early trading, but
this was largely of an arbitragc
character. American securities
seemed to have been oversold by the
bears in connection with yesterdays
foreign weakness and their efforts tc
recover stocks was the important fac
tor in today's rally. Aside from this
buying, the days business was unim-
portant and the aggregate transac
tons in fact fell to near the loves;
figure for the year thus far. The
movement of prices was a creeping
one in accordance with the small

came little more than nominal there

WHAT BOTH SIDES SAY.
Armour's Excuse and the Claim Made
by Attorneys for the Truckers.
Wilmington Star }

Mr. V. z. Miaviag, counsel for the
| Armour Refrigerator Lines, who has
been here for several days from New
York, adjusting claims of the grow
ers for his company, says that the
shortage of cars is due to three I'M
avoidable causes, viz: the general con-
gestion of freight all over the coun-
try: the rapidity with which the fruit
ripened this season and the phenom-
enally large crop planted and gath
cred this year. The usual number of
cars. he says, have been furnished
but the contingencies which have
arisen have been simply more than
human power could meet Mr.. Mia
yiag saws the Armour Company has
no purpose to resist any just claim
when accompanied by the required
evidence of loss and it is known that
many claims have already been set
tied amicably without resort to the
courts In the rush many berries
have been hurried to the railway sta
tons. especially after the recent rams,
in a mildewed condition and all these
things Mr. Miaviag thinks should enter
into the consideration of the losses.
]. O. Carr, Esq, attorney for the
East Carolina Fruit and Truckers AS
ISOLATION, was seen last night and
asked what course the berry growers
are pursuing in reference to shortage
of refrigerator cars, and said:
II am advising the truckers to
pick the berries as fast as they ripen
and tender them to the railroad COM
pany in good condition. and to use
all the diligence and care that they
would use if cars were ready to re-
ceive them. If the berries are in the
field and cars arrive they cannot be
marketed by the company but if the
company holds itself out as using re-
frigerator cars for the purpose OF
shipping fruit and invites such bust
ness, then the law will hold the COM
pnny responsible for any loss suffered
by the truckers by reason of its fail
ure to furnish the proper transporta-
ton. If the railroad is endeayoring to
place cars here, then on their arrival
ii is the duty of the trucker to have
his berries ready to load; on the other
hand if he has them ready to load II
is the duty of the railroad to receive
them and carry them properly or com
pensate the trucker for his loss by
reason of any failure to do so. There
is nothing to do but pick the berries
and tender them to the company for
transportation

New York, May 9.-The cotton mar
ket was decidedly easier under better
weather reports. selling by recent buy
ers, and renewal of bear pressure.
The opening was easy sat a decline of
4a1O points in response to much lower
cables than expected, and official
weather advices failing to show the
expected rains. There seemed to be
some effort ON the part of local bulls
60 check the decline soon after the
opening, but selling orders came IN
from practically all directions includ-
ing Liverpool where the market con-
tinued easy after the local opening
and New Orleans. Private advices dis
to the new crop also seemed less pes
simistic and local bears were en-
boldened to sell quite freely with the
result that before midday prices were
off to a net loss of about 10a13 points.
There was a rally of about 5 points
from that level just before the weekly
bureau report was read on covering.
The summary of the report made
rather bullish reading, but had been
discounted, or was less bullish than
expected. and when the details of the
report were published showing fully
rs favorable an outlook as indicated
by the summary the market again
broke under more or less general sell
ing and LIQUIDATION. The close was
steady, but at practically the lowest,
or a net decline of 14a20 points.
Sales were estimated at 100000 bales.
Receipts of cotton at the ports to-
day were 30,316. against 42,086 last
week and $3.50 last year. For the
week (estimated) 10000 bales against
172,7S3 last week. and 25,71S last
year Today's receipts at New Or
leans 7,453 bales against 2,343 last
year, and at Houston GAS bales
