Stocks and bonds.

New York, July 24.-The action of
today's stock market was strongly
suggestive of an inference that the
considerable selling which broke
prices on Saturday came from pro-
fessional bear sources and that it was
not successful in dislodging much
stock for the purposes of covering
short contracts. The demand for
covering during the first hour of to-
days session was sharp and sent the
prices upwards with quite a strong
impetus This movement was largely
prompted, no doubt, by a revision of
views over the wheat damages and
over the danger of anthracite miners
strike, which were prevalent on Sat
urday. An additional element was
the very confident one of railroad
officials in their regular weekly talks
over traffic outlook regarding the
feeling in their respective territories
as reflected in preparations for future
business Reports of large buying
of rails and structural steel products
were a favorable influence on the list
generally and on the United States
Steel stocks specifically. In the case
of the latter there was also a dispo-
sition to anticipate good effect from
the favorable showing of earnings for
the July quarter statement of earn
ings to be given out by the corpora
ton tomorrow. The money market
continued very easy in spite of the les
| sened strength of the banking po-
sition disclosed by the weekly bank
statement. The reported quarantine
on Southern railroad lines seemed to
| be ignored and the developments in
| foreign politics We're without appar-
| ent influence. There was conspicu-
Gus lapse in interest after the first
| hour of the trading. but the advances
were well held up to the close which
was firm.

New York, July 24.-Generally
speaking the dry goods market was

New York, July 24-There was an
advance of about So bale in the cot
Aon market today accompanied by
considerable activity and the big bull
leader forced the covering of smaller
shorts, who were apprehensive of crop
damage, owing to rains in the West
ern and Central belts.
The opening was firm at an advance
of 6 to 20 points in response, to the
rain news and higher cables. At
first the market met with considerable
opposition. There was selling by
wire houses with Southern 'connec-
tions, also by spot houses and some
of the larger professionals seemed TO
be putting out additional lines of
short contracts on a scale up. The
early map showed heavy rains at
only two or three points in the belt.
and while private reports claimed
heavy precipitation over more i'm
portant areas smaller bulls showed
hesitation pending official confirma-
ton of the more general wet weather
and prices during the morning were
somewhat irregular. Selling some five
or six points off from the early bulge.
they rallied again. however. and in
the afternoon the market was gen.
orally strong on partial confirmation
of the wet weather news by govern
ment reports and rumors that a firm
had issued a crop condition report
pointing to q yield of not over $780,
600 bales. The close was or points
off from the top, under realizing. but
steady in tone at net advance of ~

at 100000 bales.

came Violent at Asheville
il Cleared Up.
(Asheville Gazette. }

Patrolman Taylor returned this
morning from Hillsboro, where he
went to take E. w Crabtree, alias
j. S. Carr, the young man who created
stir in the Hotel Berkeley
to his home After the young man
had shot at his reflection in a mirror
and was taken in charge by the police
officers, DR.. Carl Reynolds pronounced
him insane. Crabtree told the author
tiles that his name was j. S. Carr and
that he was from Durham.
Just prior to leaving the local sta
ton Mr.. Taylor learned that the man
was a resident of Hillsboro and con-
sequently secured tickets to that place.
After leaving Greensboro a fellow
passenger with the officer and the
prisoner told Mr.. Taylor that the
mans name was Crabtree and that
his father was wagon maker at
Hillsboro. The passenger also ad-
vanced the information that the man
was considered mentally unbalanced
by the people at Hillsboro; that he
was charged with embeZzling post
office funds and left on that account.
At Hillsboro the officer learned that
Crabtree was believed to have taken
postofficc funds but that no papers
had been issued.

Hungary's Political Troubles Prove
 Very Annoying.
 Buda-Pest, April 15.-The lower house of the Diet today passed the mo- ton of Herr Eotvo for a vote of cen- sure on former Premier Tisza for be- ing actuated by political motives in raising the pension of the late pres ident of the house. Perczel von Bony- had, from $1 500 to $3,O00. The motion was carried by large majority The house then adjourned utnil May 8. when the independent partys address to the crown comes up for discussion.
 The address is practically a platform of the united opposition and it's dis cussion Is liable to give rise to a heated debate unless a solution of the ministerial crisis Is dicovered mean while. The united opposition shows no signs of weakening fin its demands, or of disintegration and neither does the crown give evidence of a tepdep- cy to withdraw from its previous ut terances or attitude.
 The situation consequently Is seri- ous, to say the least. Hungary feels she is now combating Austria polit- ically for the recognition of certain external rights which mean much to her national existence, the loss of which would seriously threaten her fu- ture independence. It is believed in well informed quarters here. however that some compromise will be reached between Hungary and the crown be- fore the address comes up for discus sion

COTTON COMPETITION
srATIsTIcIAN HYDE TO MAKE AN
 INVESTIGATION.
Production in British Colonies Might Disturb Normal Condition Here, But Could Do No Seri-
 Ous Injury.
Advertiser Bureau,
 Colorado Building. WashIuptOn- Anril IS.

WdSHlH6loi ARIlA Ao'
 The Agricultural Department is hold ing back an important bulletin already prepared on the prospect of competi- tion in the English cotton markets be- cause of the production in the British colonies until the subject can be per- sonally investigated by Statistician Hyde of the department, who designs to ascertain the cause of the British optimism. He will sail for England early in June.
 America, 1t is remarked at the de- partment, Is more dependent upon It's cotton for export than any other item of the export trade notwithstanding the extraordinary increase in home consumption. If the present British claims regarding colonial supplies should make good, 1t would hit the American cotton export trade a severe blow, although no new source of cot ton product ction could displace our ex- port trade permanently, no matter how promising.
 Cotton exporters here have no fear of serious injury to American cotton trade abroad, because of the demonstrated superiority of the fibre of the American cotton belt over that found anywhere else in the world. The only danger is in a possible temporary disturbance of normal conditions.
 Statistician Hyde will also inquire into the increasing demand in the Lam cashire districts, which are moving forward sensationally, and gives 1t out that the department bulletin will be nublished with whatever notifications he may discover. R. H. Watkins.

GRAY ELEC1ROCUTED
LTNEMAN's HORRIBLE DEATH AT
 HUNTSVILLE.
Man Fell Across wires and Hung There for Five Minutes, Literally Roasting Before Dropping
 t0 Ground Below.

Huntsville, April 15.-(special. "A horrible spectacle, that of man astride an electric wire, slowly burn ing to death, beyond the reach of as- sistance, was witnessed by hundreds of people on Jefferson Street at noon.
 Will Gray, a lineman employed by the Bell Telephone and Telegraph Com pany, was climbing telephone pole when he came in contact with an cleo tric wire charged with about 2,5O0 volts.
 The man lost his hold and fell across the wires. His body lodged there and was ablaze with electricity fully five minutes before falling to the ground and crushing his skull
 Gray was picked up in an unconscious condition and died in a short time. It is not believed he ever knew what hap pened. One leg was cooked. the other was burned to the bone by the wire and the other parts of his body was burned fearfully.
 Gray came here from Scottsboro, and his body was shipped there tonight.
