The fact that July cotton should have declis ed even this little while Octo-- Der has gained a point is straw that show. whics way the speculative wind Is blowing. The big discount at which ! he new cryp months are onered De- comes more and more tempting to op- orators as the summertime approach es The July position. while onertng great speculative possibilities under certain conditions, which may or may not be realized. is generally consid- cred dangerous month by the average run of speculators, who have been gradually transferring their interests to the new crop months, which nave accordingly become much more active than formerly. We are still of the opinion that large short interest es- tablished sometime back, stin exists in the new crop month, and hence, while we look for a lower market for the time being. we favor purchases or October and December on any breaks that may occur from time to time.
 weather conditions during the past week have been generally favorable for the growing crop. and we rather anticipate a bearish weekly govern Yours truly.

bravld the cold yesterday to go to the
police station to secure aid for a
stranger, whom she found lying uncon-
scious at the rear Of her home. She
told the assistant chief of police, Pet
erson, that the man had been walking
around the yard in circle for over
an hour, and finally disappeared. A
short time later she found him lying
near the back door unconscious. Miss
Moore said that she did not want him
arrested, but that if something was
not done for him quickly he would be
frozen to DEATH" as
OFFICER Charles Shafer was sent to
the place and found the man nearly
covered with snow. He was jerked to
his feet and after a generous shaking
was partially resuscitated. ut is not
so cold as it might be-" he kept saying
to the patrolman II was just beginning
to have good 'snooze' when you woke
me up"
The stranger was taken to the police
station and searched. Over $50 were
found in his pockets. He gave his
name as John Hillman, of Fairfield. He
was arrested Monday night on a charge
Of intoxication, and when released
promised to leave at once for his
home. A charge of intoxication was
filed against him this morning, and he
will be sent to the county Jail.
