Prices Not Affected by Reports Of
Last Nights Frost.

NEW YORK, October 1.-THE cotton
market opened steady at an advance OF

showed frost at two points, and there were
a number of private wires reporting light
to heavy frosts more or less generally in
the northeastern and central belts.
Temperatures, however were considered
too high to kill the plant except in a few
comparatively unimportant localities, and
after the opening there was aggressive SELL
ing by local bears with prices declining to

the early session.

NEW YORK COTTON
DECIDEDLY BEARIsH FEELING IN
EVIDENCE, DESPITE FRosTs.

NEW YORK, October 12.-Local traders
IN the cotton market took skeptical view
OF the frost situation this morning. and
where IL was thought by many yesterday
that change in sentiment toward a
stronger market was due, this morning
there was decidedly bearish feeling in evi-
oehce. Ihis bearishness prevailed In spite
Vi iros's on1cially reported at Memphis and
other places adjacent to the cotton border
'osether with light to heavy frost privately
reported In the cotton belt itself The ar
sumeht raised by the bears was that no
damage had yet been reported and that the
score had already been discounted for all II
was worth with the bulge of yesterday.
good many private reports came In to the
eHect tnat the frost was nothing and these
had their influence.
Trading was, however but moderately ac-
i've during the morning, inasmuch as the
element OF uncertainty as to the frost sit
uatlon had not been entirely eliminated.
Ihe market lacked snap and life. The
bears were not afraid to hammer never
theless and there was enough cotton in
evidence after the call to pull the market
down 10 points and later net 15 There
was some support given by outside buy
ing. but II did not figure under the weight
OF selling pressure. Any rally was feeble
one The course. of trading today was in
fact regarded more as purely speculative
any fixed lines with professionals doing the
bulk of 1t.
There was more or less liquidation on the
advance of yesterday, as well as further
short selling. and the market was generally
steady. 1t opened 1 point up to 3 down
about as due on the cables. December
opened down. at 9.SSc., and sold off to
9 T3c. March opened 3 down, at 10.0Sc., and
also showed a 15-point decline. The whole
list was relatively regular.
Liverpool due to come lower opened as
expected, and sagged off with, the local
market. AT the hour of the local opening
1t was yet 1 point lower, Influenced. it was
said, by cables from the side making light
OF frost news, and by a good many Ameri
can selling orders.
New Orleans opened three points down.
and manifested cooperating weakness. The
receipts continued low at Houston. The
estimated receipts for tomorrow are 1000
to 1000 bales, as compared with 1904
bales the same day last week, and 9,763
bales last year.

CHICAGO NOT
SO CRAZY
AS new YORK

ChcaRo, March T.-Dr n " Meyer,
diseases in the city, has made an answer
to the charge that Chicago is going
crazy" He shows that the other big
cities are going crazy s fast as Chi
cago. He says:
THE fact is that the insanity ratio IN
both New York and Boston is increasing
faster than in Chicago. New York's
proportion is one out Of every 80; Boston
and New England. one out OF every 800.
while Chicago has only one out OF every
400 New York has the finest private in
zane asylum I'm the world. Chicago has
practically none.
You can readily see that some one
supports these magnificent asylums.
There IL no doubt about the cause for
the increase in insanity. city life causes
insanity. Poor food. poor homes. with no
sun and bad air: improper clothing.
worrying because people ore behind in
the rent. drives people crazy.
The cure? Live in the country. IL
is the coming 10 the city, grinding and
pinchirg and falling to make both ends
meet that drive people crazy; the cure
for insanity is: Live out OF doors and
laugh--even n you cannot put cash I'm the
bank.
The worst feature ~ that In fami-
lies where insanity Is a tendency mental
arrangement means moral arrangement
Of the worst kind
There were 1916 commitments FOR in
sanity from the detention hospital last
year The increase IL slightly in advance
OF the increase in population.
There has been a large increase in
Jewish insane. This is accounted for by
the fact that Chicago has received a
large number OF Russian Jews who came
here from Russian persecution, often after
frightful experiences.
England IL fast going crazy because it
is changing from an Agricultural TO an
urban people"

The fury had been out almost 30 hours.
The case was given to IL on "Wednesday
afternoon. This morning disagreement
was reported 10 the court. but the Jury
wns advised 10 return and deliberate

A portion OF the testimony was read
again at the request OF some jurors. IN
the afternoon the Jury again returned 10
the court for instructions. At dinner the
