 New York, April 17.-Total sales of shares. 1.165,500. Money closed ? 3-4 to per cent Last loan. 2 2-4.
 The real strength in today's session was in U. s. Steel and St. Paul. All day the market was nervous and seem. ed as though there was selling pressure under cover of strength of one or two strong specialties. The railroad list did not follow the advance in St Paul. nor did the industrials participate in the pronounced strength in steel stock. The market was two sided As we pointed out Saturday, stocks have at- tained a high level and we still be- lieve in buying on bulges.

 New York. April T.-The weakness today was the result of a drive by the bears to shake down further prices in the hope of forcing out the large hold ings recently accumulated by Wall street operators and the SuiIy contin- gent. Later the market steadied on the subsistence of this movement. but any substantial recovery was held in check by continued bearishness of a majority of the operators. With the season already two to four weeks late. this cold spell. if it lasts a few days longer, will attract attention. Under existing conditions, we would rather buy cotton now than sell it.

Cronkitc found little difficulty in secur-
ing the room in which George Knox had
died, for he was just the sort Of middle
aged, unobtrusive lodger landlady likes.
There was slight change in the old fash
ioned premises-the same furniture set in
the same order and the boxes filled with
the dead mans personal effects still piled
in the corner.
To these boxes the detective first turned
his attention, examining every article,
book and paper with most exacting care.
At first the results we're purely negative,
though substantatinR his theories 80 far
as they went.
1t was manifest that George Knox had
had but two interests in ffe-his love for
Alice Romaine. his devotion to his profess
sion. Not hint appeared Of the evil
courses to which the letter had charged
the responsibility Of his death.
But presently on the inner cover Of a
textbook Cronkite discovered pencilled
record OF some sort, such tumble of alb
breviations, numbers and apothecary's
symbols ne might we'll he taken for the
idle jottings OF an distracted mind. But
that textbook dealt with toxicology, and a
page of it was turned down to the discussion
Of the very poison which had cost Knox
his life.
Cronkite classified the record, putting
like with like, and light began to dawn.
The symbols evidently indicated doses
| the numbers hours and minutes, and the
authorizations, stated repetition Of the
capital letter 8.
Cronkite combined these facts and from
! them drew the deduction that for several
hours Knox had administered two sub
stances alternately to Stead, using the Ut
| most precision in time and amount.
| Then the detectives imagination, trained
like cavalry to make victory complete
dashed forward.

VAR ON A CIGARETTE SMOKER.
w. C. r. u. Leaders Complain OF AdJutane
General Hughes OF Kansas.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 2l.-The Woman's
Christian Temperance Union OF Kansas
has made the discovery that John White
Friarson Hughes, Adjutant-General OF the
State by appointment Of Gov. Edward w.
Hoch is a confirmed cigarette smoker.
Because of this fact the members OF the
organization may defeat the Governor Tor
denomination next year.
For several months the white ribboners
of the State have been in pursuit OF the
ciearette. When they met in Topeka In
annual convention few days ago the
leaders announced the discovery that
many Kansas young women have fallen
victims to the cigarette habit. The fol-
lowing resolution was adopted without Q
dissenting vote:
Resolped, That since the habit OF cigarette
smoking is becoming 50 alarmingly Preva-
lent among girls as well as boys, we declare
for more rigid enforcement ol the anti
cigarette law.
Then resolution was adopted thanking
Gov. Hoch for insisting upon the use OF
water instead OF wine at the launchln9 OF
the battleship Kansas few weeks ago.
1t was after this resolution had been re-
ceived with a chorus of "ayes' that tho
trouble for the Governor began. One OF
the officers Of the society caught glimpse
Of Gen. Hughes putting in perfect serenity
OF mind and body at clRaTeVte'
She recalled that the most conspicuous
person ct the launching of the battleehip
aside from the Governor and the sponsor
WAS this same John White Friarson Hughes.
He It was who, when other members OF the
Governors staff asked permission, to ex-
change their shoulder straps and brass
buttons ard tinsel and braid fsr linen
busters, insisted that the honor Of the State
must be raaintained, even with The tenn
perature lowering near the 100 mark In
Camden, N. j.
Gov. Hooh afterward boasted that Solo
mon in all his glory was never arrayed like
Gen. Hughes on this occasion. That the
General has the uniform habit more strongly
developed than any other man in the West
is the source Of pride to his friends IN
Topeka.
But Gen. Hughes smokes cigarettes: In
the opinion of some Of the w. c. T. y. lead
ers this crime comes very near offsetting
his gallantry and the Governors act in
substituting water from John Browns
spring for wine at Camden.
The women propose now to wait upon
the Governor and demand that Gen. Hughes
be disciplined. They insist that he must
be removed, or at least reduced, or Mr..
Hoch himself must suffer the consequences.
