AN ALMOST DEADLY DuEL
For Which Two nen Were Brought to
 Jail.

Deputy Sheriff w. T. Williams of Gila Bend arrived in the city yester day morning with q couple of Mex jeans, Pedro Gutierrez and Juan Con treras under sentences by Justice Coyle Of Gila Bend precinct of ninety days in the county jail. If there had been at the trial any other testimony than that of the two men they would have gone to the penitentiary.
 They had made a desperate and al- most successful effort to kill each other A few nights ago the town of Gila Bend was alarmed by a fusilade of pistol shots. When persons ran to the place where the reports seemed to come from they found Gutierrez lying on the ground with skull so badly fracturd that his brains were on eXhi- bition.
 Soon after that Contreras was ar rested as the man who had assaulted him. Finally Contreras told his story and it has since been practically cor roborated by Gutierrez. The men both were armed with revolvers when they got into a quarrel. Contreras' weapon had only two cartridges in it while that or Gulterez was tul. The lalter discharged six shots at COntreras who having exhausted his ammunition picked up a coupling pin and sought closer quarters. He reached Gutierrez just as he was in the act of rehlling his gun and one blow of that coupling pin did the business
 Both men were held al GiIa Bend for several days in the expectation if not the hope that GuitcreZ would die but as soon as he showed signs of inn provement he was brought to the city. He is still under the care of doctor.

It Is believed that hold ings by an underwriting syndicate of rail- road bonds have been transferred in large volume abroad either for delivery to pur- foreign markets. The effect would be to release large borrowings by the syndicate in this market.
 The bills offered in the exchange market which caused today's break were most of the bankers bills. which means that they NnA AAHR ARD AZ AAwA A~~ funds This is the process which anticipates the making of exchange by the outward movement of commodities later in the year, which will give an opportunity to cover the sales of exchange now being made.
 The week opens with a further large ah- ports point to the continued activity of business in all lines and the enormous movement of grain and merchandise over the railroads. The lack of urgency in the selling and some very large individuals buy ing of a few stocks of an impressive char ket set about to dull recovery about mid way of. the session The Government crop report had its part in this the condition both of corn and spring wheat being fs-- garded as tuIty holding the previous prom ise.
 Some positive strength in Canadian Pa- cific, St. Paul and Smelting and a notable absorption of Erie had a strong sympa- fhetic effect on the recovery. Prices were carried very generally above Saturday night and the closing, while slightly irregular. was at higher level.

 The company owns property adjacent to the company headed by I. H. Aid rich and Sons and which has been pro- ducinR gold now for two or three years. Mir Hood states that as soon
 as the machinery can be purchased and placed the operations on his property will be increased.
 Considerable activity Is reported in the gold fields in the eastern part of the State. The corporations are most ly closed corporations. like Mir. Hoods. no effort whatsoever being made to sell any stock and none will be made.
 As with MT. Hood. the purchases made
 In the past two or three years have been made for actual development. Mir.
 Hood declines to state how much gold is now being cleared on his property. The placing of machinery for separat- ing the gold will involve an expendit- ure of from $10.o0o to $20,000 at least.

Salt Bnths.

The most refreshing of all baths, ex- ceptinE 0 dip in the sea itself is the salt rub. It Is matchless In its effect upon the skin and complexion. With all these virtues 1t is the simplest and most easily managed of all baths
 Put few pounds of coarse salt-sea salt preferably-in an earthen jar. and pour some water over it, but not enough to dissolve. This should then be taken up In handfuls and rubbed briskly over the body. The next thing Is thorough douching of water. tepid or cold water. and a brisk rubbing with a dry towel.
 The effect of freshness. elation and renewed life is felt immediately, and the satin-like texture of the skin and increased clearness and brightness of favor of the salt rub.

New Orleans. Sept. II. Spot cotton quiet and easier. Sales. 725 bales. incud- ing aa5 to arrive. Quotations hc lower.
 Futures opened 10 15 points lower than Saturdays closing figures. the decline be- ing attributed to the failure of Liverpool to respond to the advance on this side. and Liquidation after the opening depressed the local prices still further. the market closing weak with net losses of 16920 points
 It Is pointed out that much of the cotton now in transit represents old business Out of the total of T4.000 bales in Galveston stocks. 5l.000 bales there are now on ship board for Europe, which shows that Europe is buying on this side of the Atlantic instead of at Liverpool
 Telegrams from all over the belt state that farmers are refusing to sell spot cotton below 10 cents.

CONDITIONS GENERALLY WEAK AND IrNSETTLED.
Prices Touched the Lowest Point Reached Since September Bureau on All Positions Later Than
 October

New York, Sept. 1.-The cotton market was generally weak and unsettled, with prices touching the lowest point reached since the September bureau on all positions later than October. The close was at just about the lowest of the session. or at a net decline of igG22 points. Sales were estimated at 250,000 bales.
 The opening was weak at a decline of O 13 points la response to lower cables than due on the American showing of Saturday. There was covering at the initial decline. but good weather in the South, tremendous re- ceipts and reports of free spot offerings promoted liquidation and fresh selling for short account. which also encouraged by the absence of support from the October bull clique.
 After declining to a net loss of 1761s points the market rallied five or six points on covering, but showed little Improvement in tone and weakened again in the afternoon with trading toward the close the most active of the session and prices reaching Q new low level for the day. The closing tons was barely steady.
 Southern spot markets were unchanged to Mo lower with only small sales report ed Private reports concerning the spot situation were somewhat conflicting. but on the whole indicated liberal offerings and part of the selling here was said to be against actual supplies
