painful condition as a result of a
fire which destroyed the Yeck home
on Gordon creek Wednesday noon.

fully burned.
Wednesday noon Mrs. Yeck was
at home and alone with her baby,
which was lying on a bed in the
sitting room, and in which room she
had placed some wet blankets around
the stove to dry. Closing the door
of the sitting room she went into the
kitchen to attend to household du
| lies and after many minutes had
passed she discovered that the house
was on fire. Immediately she rushed
into the room where the baby had
been left, to find the entire room q
mass of flames which started from
| the stove igniting the blankets. She
grabbed the child, together with the
bed clothes under it and started tc
escape from the room, but stepped
IN one of the quilts and fell into the

COTTON MARKET
 BECOMES ACTIVE Aggressive Bull Support Sends
 Prices Higher WALL STREET BUYS FREELY Nothing Is Given in the News To Ex.
WALL STREET BUYS FREELY
Nothing Is Given in the News To Ex plain the Sudden Turn Upward, But Bulls Take Hold and
 Buy in Large Lots.

New York, July 21.-The cotton market was much more active today and scored a sharp gain on aggressive bull support net advance of IS to 23 points. Sales were estimated at 25O,0O0 bales.
 The market opened steady at decline of 1 to 5 points, This was considered better than due in view of the easy cables and favorable weather reports, but even before the opening there were rumors that the big bull leaders intended to support the market and buying from this source was clearly in evidence before the end of the call. At an advance from 913 to 923 for October there was a recession of 4 or 5 points owing to a temporary withdra wal of bull support and realizing, but there was a renewal of the strong Wall street buying almost immediately, and during the early afternoon it seemed that even some of the larger shorts were becoming uneasy. At any rate, October contracts sold up to 9.43. or 25 points net higher, and while subsequent fluctuations were firm, the close was a point or two off from the best on active months.
 There seemed to be nothing in the news to explain the increased confidence of the bull party but the strong market leaders had their brokers around the ring buy ing all lots of 1000 bales or more that were offered. Late in the session they bought smaller lots as well, and their support was in evidence right up to the close. The weekly report of the weather bureau was considered of a bearish av- craze, but had no influence on prices. The forecast for rain in the eastern belt was considered favorable, and private crop news was generally encouraging South ern spot markets were unchanged to Bc lower.
 Receipts at the ports today, 5677, against eS0S last week and 1857 last year. For the week. 25,00O bales, against 25,004 last week and 1853 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, 17S9, against IS last year, and at Houston, 1274 bales, against 1015 last year.

STOCK MARKET
 SHOWS LOSSES Selling Is Brisk After Sharp
 Rise In Prices SOME STOCKS HOLD GAINS Reading Is Not so Badly Affected by Selling Pressure as Others. Result of Days Transac-
 tions Is a Decline.
SOME STOCKS HOLD GAINS

New York, July 21.-An added weight of sales had to be borne by the stock market today and some effect was pro- duced on prices by this pressure. The market comported itself. oh the whole in manner to keep up the courage or those committed to a continuance of the rise in prices, showing good power of digestion of the selling and excel lent recuperative forces with the pres- sure ughtened. An element of the speculative holders was disposed to take profits on the rise already achieved and another professional ele- ment watchful for such a contingehcy joined in the selling on the short Side and offered prices down in an attack on the long position. The process Of 5 digestion of profits was healthy for the market, and the building up of the short interest made supporting fac tor for values. The realizing sales were conducted with skill and caution and under cover of the sustaining in- fluence of strength in special stocks
 Reading was a prominent sustaining force in the market and it was run | aggressively in the face ofsa declining tendency in the general list. There was no news to explain the strength of the stock. The suggestion found currency that the movement was m anticipation of the outcome of the suit to test the validity of the commodities clause of the Hepburn act in favor or the contentious of the company. As this decision is still in the hands of the courts, the rumor was incapable of verification. The small effect pro- duced on United States Steel by the sales of it to realize and its aggressive recovery to a price higher than was touched yesterday, was a sentimental sustaining influence on the whole mar ket.
 Reports were current that the re- vival in the street trade was making such demands for additional cars in the Pittsburg dstirct as to threaten sh ortage in a few weeks and to cause a rush on the repair shops to prepare equipment. Railroads in that region however, were under the disadvantage of the poor showing of net earnings
