A Sentence with Consequences.

Hartford Courant.
 We miss our guess if one sentence in the testimony of Treasurer Ran dolph of tke New York Life---"I imagine that there is not a bank or trust company in New York that does not have notes made for riil- lions of dollars of messengers and clerks"-doesn't stick in the public memory. It may even have conseouen- ces in legislation; who knows?

netter Prices for Cotton !.

Spot cotton will be selling at II cents and above some time before Christmas" predicted a large grower of Montgomery County yesterday. The speculators are learning that the or- means business and are awakening to the realization that producers of cot ton are able to mold It.
 'It was an inspiration to watch the wagons ou Court Square a week ago when the market was under 10 cents, The men who had the cotton there for sale refused emphatieally to let 1t go for less than 10 cents and turned 1t into warehouses. Wherever poor man, a tenant, found it necessary to sell his land owner was ready to take the cotton at 10 cents.
 Since that time the Cotton Associa- ton has fixed II cents as the minimum and the market Is already responding to the pressure.
 If the Southern farmers will stand nrm-and .h l oelieve they w,itnWe h, W cnl wril troI It.

-Four Die in Stampede.

indianapolis, Special.--Frenzied by a
false alarm of fire, several hundred
newsboys struggling to obtain free
tickets to n show by a patent medicine
advertising company, stampeded il a
narrow stairway in the Masonic Tenn
pie Monday night, crushing the life out
of four boys and probably injuring sew
eral other children.
Long before the time appointed for
the distribution of free tickets, the
stairs OF Masonic Temple, at the south
west corner OF Washington street and
Capitol avenue. were crowded with a
pushing. yelling crowd of children
mostly newsboys, each anxious to be
first to receive a pass. When the dis
tributing began, the excitement be-
came more intense, and the efforts OF
several policemen to maintain order
were unavailing.
1t is alleged by a witness that one
or the boys, in an endeavor to hasten
the exit OF those who had received
passes, shouted "Fire?" Immediately
those at the top II the stairs faced
about ana madly began to force a way
to the bottom of the steps. Shrieks
and physical encounters followed.
Those at - top became so closely
entargled that The mass of boys fell,
clinging to each other. into the strug-
CLING mass of youths at the bottom OF
the stairs.
Policemen from central station re-
sponded TO q riot call and began to
eXtricate the smothering boys. Four
boys were dead when uncovered The
boys fought desperately to- get free,
and dozens were injured by the first
crush or were hurt by the subsequent
scramble aforesaid
An immense crowd of people. at
tracted by the wild shouts. jostled
about the mass OF boys and hampered
the work of the ambulance corps.
The severely injured were sent to
hospital, while many. who suffered
slight Injuries, were sent home.
