DEMAND FOR COTTON.
CLOTH FALLS OFF
Low Stock and Heavy Engagements Make
SpInners Independent

MANCHESTER. March 26.-The de-
mand for cotton cloth has fallen off. but
there were fair transactions last week for
India and China, though dealers abroad
are showing more hesitation TO accept Of
fers at current rates. The difficulty re-
sarding delivery is still an adverse factor
for new business. Printing and finishing
cloths were moderately active for minor
outlets.
There were some reported attempts of
continental manufacturers to sell printing
cloths here, while at the same time there
is an appreciable contiental demand.
Yarns were healthy and trade was firm.
American reports were strong. With
stock low and heavy enga gements ahead
spinners are difficult to deal with.

two dogs in the store at night, which had
kept them awake, but on the night of the
fire the dogs were not in the store. Deple-
ton of the stock in the store was very
noticeable just before the fire, they said.
Mr.. Beasley. a clerk for NJ. ]. Kennard
& Co., testified that Ruenker had increased
his insurance to $3.50 shortly before the
fire. Police Sergeant Sigwart, who dis
covered the fire. and Officer Goodrich, who
burst in the back door for. the firemen.
testified to finding rags lying about
saturated with kerosene and these were
produced in evidence, still smelling of the
fluid.
For the defense Attorney Macfarland in

alarm, a sister of the defendant aud
Ruenker himself. The defense is based on
the theory, the fire was the result of
spontaneous combustion or accident, that
there was no depletion of stock beyond the

/ EXPERT ON FINGER PRINTS
Mrs. e. NJ. Holland Tells How to
Trace Criminals from Inn
pressiOns of Hands.

Mrs NJ. f. Holland, assistant manager
of the Detective, a Chicago publication
recognized by the police departments of the
country as an authority, is spending the
day in Omaha in the interests of her
finger print system of identification of
criminals. Mrs. Holland gave a demonstra-
ton Of. the system at the parlors of the
Willard hotel
The finger print system is now in vogue
in many of the large cities of the country.
Mrs. Holland explained the system to Chief
of Police Donahue Friday morning and
there is a possibility the system may be
adopted by the local police department in
the near future.
Speaking Of the system Friday morning
Mrs. Holland said:
1--WE take separate Impressions of a
criminals fingers and thumb and then an
impression of the fingers and thumb to-
gether. II has been demonstrated that no
two persons have the same lines. The au-
thorities at Scotland Yard. London. have a
collection OF 10000 impressions, there being
a distinct difference between any pair.
These finger print impressions have played
an important part in the identification OF
criminals in recent years and the system is
becoming more in vogue all the time.
1.-THE lines of the human fingers and
thumb never change from the cradle to
the grave. You may scald, burn or other
wise mutilate the skin Of the human finger
and the lines will reappear exactly the
same as before the mutilation. l can re-
call an instance in point where a criminal
a man charged with murder-scratched the
lines on his thumbs and fingers remem-
bering he hcd smeared the scene of tho
murder with the blood from his hands
The man was placed in a hospital until
his hands healed, after which impressions
of his fingers and thumbs were taken and
found to correspond precisely with the
bloody impressions found on a window sill
at the scene OF the murder. The finger
impressions taken formed an important
part of the evidence when the case came
