approache ed I A short delay in announcing
the report caused October TO bound up agr/l
to about 1920. Then when the condition
figures were announced there was an instant
break, running from 1890 points IN the
active months, October dropping 20 points
In half a dozen sales, and December drop

first time in a week that any New Orleans

stopped to consider the government figures

market within ten minutes regancd all Its

the extreme tension under which the re-
port had been awaited, and the fact that 1t

CHEERFUL SPIRIT
IN STOCK 0 MARKET !.
Better Sentiment and Improve
ment i'll Prices Were Features
8 Of Day i'll Wall Street.
COTTON ESTIMATE CHOICE
Confused and Excited Movement
of Prices Make ltDifiicult to \
Construe Trades View.

ENEW YORK. June 4.--Thcre was a
Better sentiment in stock market cir
cles to- day, and prices showed some
Improvement, the cause and effect of
which was not very clear. Yesterdays
fall was attributed to the almost en-
tire absence OF any buying demand,
SO thnt light selling forced prices easily
downward. To-day the reverse was
true, the selling having subsidized al
most completely, ana prices advanced
With very little buying as a motive
force. Whatever. forced liquidation was
IN evidence yesterday seemed to have
been completed. a short interest was
left uncovered, and the buying from
this source furnished the principal de-
Tnand. With the rise In prices there
was also some Improvement: In spec
ulative sentiment More seasonable
weather in Wall Street itself was given
its share of influence In cheering the
spirits Of the room-traders. This"also
gave them more confidence in the re-
ports of better weather In the crop re-
gions The crop news was, in fact, the
( most substantial factor lying back o.
the rise In stocks. Present and prom
ised weather conditions were regarded
Us putting better face on the crop
outlook. The wheat market moved ac-
cordingly.
The condition estimate on cotton
was given first choice in the days crop
news. The confused and excited
movement of prices which followed
upon its publication made 1t difficult
to construe the trades views on the
report. This was partly due to the
extended position on the long side in
cotton, which induced heavy profit
taking. and partly TO the misunder-
standing of the acreage comparison,
owing to the revision of last years
figures. The showing of the report,
however, served to confirm the convic-
ton of present low condition of the
crop, and it's dependence on good
weather for a favorable outcome.
Some of the buying of Union Pacific
was attributed to the published asser-
tions that it was intended to abandon
the government measures against the
Hartman railroad combination. The
hve-point rise in American Smelling
was connected with the dividend meet
ing to be held tomorrow, and was ef~
fective in rallying the list from later
reaction and making a strong closing.

PRODUCE MARKET
SOMEWHAT DULLER

The shippers from the South and from
nearby points rather overdid the business OF
supplying the reunion demand for eatablos
and the result is that the Cary Street com
misston,nen and wholesalers had more stool,
on hand yesterday than they had customers
for. and there was slight Weakening OF
prices all around, as the quotations In an
other column will show ~
There are plenty OF good things to eat or
the market, and they are selling ut f1g<re,
somewhat under those that have been pre-.
vailing for some weeks past. Business or
'the block" yesterday was fairly good.

ORGANIZED
Known as the Florence
Richards Union.
OFFICERS Are ELECTED
Mrs. Enoch Knackel Chosen
as President.
Marion's Third Branch of W. c. T..
U. is Launched at Wesley M.
+. Church.

Marion's third branch of the w,
C.. T. u. was organized at Wes'
ley NJ. T.. church, Friday after
noon, under the name of Florencc
Richards union. The society was
named in honor Of Mrs. Florence
Richards, a prominent w. c. I.
L. worker of Leipsic, Ohio.
Previous to the organization Oh
the society. an interesting address
oil about ten minutes length was
given by Mayor Scherff, who was
present in response to an invita-
ton from the ladies.
To his feminine hearers the city's
executive divulged the fact that
when he first came to Marion he
was employed as bartender in a
North End saloon.
Il know from actual experience
the many evils Of this traffic."
said the mayor. He commended the
W. G.. 7. u. for its excellent
work and said that he feels that
the prayers of the Marion women
who are interested in temperance
have helped him greatly in his
work OF reform here. He express
ed pleasure at learning that a new
society was to be formed.
The mayor said that while pr
forming has official duties he has
found great many opportunities
to do some good work among the
men who are brought before him.
He exhibitor ten pledges signed by
tcpers who We're arrested for
drunkenness and whom he induced
to promise that they would become
total abstainers.
The new society starts with 55
charter members of whom 10 are
honorary. Practically all Of the
members live in West Marion. The
work of organization was conducted
by Mrs. Eva Fletcher, president
of the Frances Willard society.

tional services, and after PRAYER

vate car. The lecturer told Of the
'gredt national park as he had seen
it in his twenty years experience
there while driving q stage coach
over the Park highways.
The lecture was illustrated with
a fine line of stereopticon slides
and moving picture scenes, the sub
jects of which were only recently
obtained by h. b. Thompson an a
trip through the park.
The moving pictures and slides
of the wild animals were espec-
Jolly interesting and were undoubt-
edly the most original pictures ever
seen in the city. Moving pictures
of geysers in action were also
thrown on the~ canvas presenting
very pleasing scene.
Mr.. Culver proved an exception
ally clever lecturer. He told the
story of description in very sim
pie language and it was SO plain
that the smallest child could un-
dcrstand. He described the geysers
wild game, hot springs, tinted ter
races and pools, tumbling rivers,
splendid mountains and the Grand
Cannon of the Yellowstone river as
the driver OF coach would ex-
plain them to passengers. He spoke
in an interesting manner of the his
tory of the Park and drew upon
hords of remin:'scence in entertain
ing his alternative audience.
The educational value of the lec-
ture was great and was successful
IN conveying correct idea of the
natural wonder, the
greatest spot in the world, broad
ening the intellect and imprlnting
n deep impression upon the minds
Of all who were so fortunate to
be present.

JUST FOR The
SPORT OF IT.
Citizens to Join the White
Wings.
VOLUNTEERS WANTED.
To Form a Brigade of About
Ten Men.
Prosecutor Clark, Solicitor Donithen
and Alderman Gorton are Already
for the Workout.

Just for the fun of the thing, a
number of prominent local business
and professional men say that they
intend getting out on the streets Of
the city and doing two days of hard
labor, in compliance with the new
road tax law. They admit that It
would be an easy matter for each
o. them to plank down SO and avoid
doing the work, but they think that
the exercise will do them good, and
there would be no limit to the good
time which result from a bunch OF
good fellows putting In couple OF
days at street cleaning.
If nine other men in my ward will
agree to get out and do the work."
said Prosecuting Attorney Clark,
Friday, II will make the tenth man
who will put in the two days"
The prosecutor, however, would
have an advantage over the majority
|of his friends. He has put in many a
day at hard labor on his fathers farm
near LaRue. and even since being
elected to office frequently drops over
on the old home-place to take a whirl
ia pitching hay or some other harm
less pastime.
This cleaning stunt would be
mere boys play for the energetic
prosecutor. AT the close of the two
days struggle, when the rest of the
bunch would be frothing at the
mouth and making noise like the
exhaust of gasoline engine, Clark
would be smiling blandly and calling
for more.
City Solicitor Donithen. who lives
down in the same ward with the
prosecutor, and who, by the way,
Is another country-bred citizen, says
that he is willing to join the white
wings for a period of two days and
he thinks that there will be little
trouble in filling out the quota of ten
which Clark demands. 1t is said
that Councilman Gorton is interesting
himself In the movement and is Will
ing to get his broad -gllage shovel
out for couple of days.
{ Whether the agitators of the idea
viii lose their spirit of enthusiasm
about the time they get their notices
from the road superintendents, is a
matter Of conjecture.
