Washington Was tilted Four Times,

From the Broadway Magazine.
 When Col. George Washington first met Martha Custis she was a dashing widow, yet in her twenties, beautiful, charming, and wealthy. The father of his country promptly fell in love with the lady, and as promptly laid siege to her heart. His wooing was speedy. A chance meeting at the house of Major Chamberlayne, an afternoon and an evening with the belle of Virginia, and he was almost an ac- cepted suitor. But the gallant colonel was not exactly an amateur in the art of love-making. He at least had the expe- rience of great mistakes to profit by. For history records the fact that there were four ladies who declined the golden opportunity to share the heart and home and the glory of the afterward greatest American gentleman.
 Why? Only the sphinx that could an- swer the immortal riddle of mankind might tell Handsome. well-dressed, skill ed in the elegant accomplishments of the day and above all a soldier. apparently Col. George Washington ought to have been a lover for whose only right any woman would have fluttered to his arms But they didn't The ladies who thus failed of the 1ustrous niche in history that they might have had were, in turn, a miss of sixteen years, whom her suitor of soulful seventeen indited as the Love land Beauty" a Miss Fontleroy, a Miss Cary, and a coquettlsh Miss Mary Phil ipse whose ancestral manor-house at Yonkers, N Y, is to this day reckoned as a sort of romantic shrine.

CROPS STILL PUT 4 DAMPER ON STOCKS Markets at Great CenterS Are
 Much Depressed SPECULATION IS NARROW Covering Operations of Shorts Lifted Prices-Prostraton of Demand for
 Securities Also In For
 eign Markets.
SPECULATION IS NARROW

New York, May 14.-Security markets at all the great centers of capital were more or less depressed and 1t seemed clear that the immediate competing cause was the bad outlook for the worlds crops. This diagnosis is not necessarily discred- ited by the fact that stocks rose in New York yesterday when wheat jumped and that the reaction in the wheat market to- day was accompanied by decline in stocks.
 Technical speculative conditions may be advanced In explanation of these seem lngly contradictory movements. Besides the special operations in yesterdays stock market designed to sustain or lift prices, 1t was evident that an outstanding short Interest was seeking to take advantage of the bad crop news to cover short con- tracts
 The fact that their covering operations was effective in lifting prices was signifi- cant O. the narrow speculative interest in the present stock market, either on the long or the short side, partly as a re- suit of the large diversion of speculative activity to the commodities markets. On the other hand, todays reaction in the wheat market was attributed in large part to the heavy selling to take profits induced by the recent extensive advance In the price of wheat. This reaction did not serve entirely to relieve apprehension over the cropp respects.
 he large shortage in the winter wheat crop already indicated, makes the spring wheat seeding a matter of paramount interest in the forming of opinion in the markets. The weather news from the spring wheat regions today indicated con- tinued temperature deficiencies which made conditions unfavorable for seeding. The violent decline in Canadian Pacific was traceable to this cause. That stock also reflected the depressed conditions on foreign securities markets owing to the large volume of 1t in foreign hands,
 The prostration of demand for securi- ties in foreign centers fy hs pronounced as in New York, and this Is a powerful factor In the Encouragement felt over the speculative outlook. The present im- pression that widespread shortage in the products of the soil is a likelihood for the coming season weighs on the sit uatioa, and aggravates the dread of bus mess reaction, and declining prosperity.
 lhe money outlook is not considered clear. owing to the large prospective re- ouirements for capital. Foreign discounts continued hard today but money rates here were inclined to ease from the re- cent flrmness. This was partly due to the failure of confirmation of reports current yesterday that the secretary of the treas ury planned an early withdrawal of an installment of government funds on de- posit with national banks.

JANUARY COTTON IS OVER ELEVEN CENTS Closed at Advance of 8 to 26
 Points WEEKLY REPORT BULLISH Heavy Selling on the Advance and Bull Leaders Take Some Profits.
 But the Market Is
 Absorbent.
WEEKLY REPORT BULLISH

IJew York, May 14.-Today was the most active since the beginning of the bull movement and prices reached a new high level for the movement, with January seIiing about Il cents during the after noon. The close was off from the best but steady at a net advance of to 26 points. Sales for the day were estimated at 0O000 bales. The opening was firm at an advance of 6 to 15 points, July sold 10.95 on the call, but later the list reacted under heavy realizing and some selling for @ turn on the appearance of selling orders which were attributed to the big bull leaders. Offerings were heavy but prices sagged off only or 5 points from the best and later advanced again on the forecasts calling for show CTS and lower temperatures generally over the belt
 Following the weekly report of the weather bureau the new crop months reached the high point of the day. with January selling at 11.0 or H points net higher while July sold at 10.9S or r points net higher
 There was very heavy selling on the advance and it was estimated that brok- CTS working for the bull clique had dis posed of something like 75,OO0 to 100 900 bales but there was plenty of fresh buy ing and covering of shorts to absorb the offerings until near the close when there was a slight reaction
 Predictions for smaller receipts and the light estimates for tomorrow helped the advance.
 Southern spot markets were unchanged to 1sc higher Receipts at the ports to- day, 16S66 bales, against 2,tS1 last week and 1906 last year.
 For the week 60,000 bales, against 59, ,232 last week and S0,S74 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans 2139 bales. against o1l5 last year and at Houston 1479 bales, against 40O6 last year. ~

minor facts added to the general inf1u- ence of the poor crop outlook. One of these was the extension of the longsore- mems strike in New York.
 Another was the tendency to extend the recent discussion of defective steel rails into the field of other railway equipment, especially car whels. Some attention was given also to a decision yesterday in the supreme court which affirmed the powers of the interstate commerce com mission to prohibit an increase of freight rates by change of classification; method much relied on by the railroad com panies for raising charges for traffic.
