A LAVENDER TOWN.
Fragrance of Flower Waited for Two
 Miles at Cutting Time.

From the London aDily Mail
 One of the mnnor harvests that promise well is that of the lavender fields. 1 have seen some fiourishing crops in the Hitchin neighborhood to- day.
 Comparatively few know of this quaint Hertfordshire town as an i'm portant lavender growing center, yet it has grown the sweet herb (which the Romans called lavendula, when they used 1t to scent their baths). has distilled the flowers and sent their ex- tract into all parts of the world for more than a century.
 The Hitchin district, had less rain and more sunshine than the London area during the month which. has just closed, and consequently the long, trim rows of lavender plants in their dusky green look strong and healthy. They are beginning to show their flower buds, and there is every likelihood of an abundant yield at cutting time. which will be from three to four weeks hence.
 At cutting time people come in from miles around to inhale the sweetness of the fields, and when the distilling begins the fragrance of lavender is borne on the wind two miles or more from the town.
 The flowers are put into the still with the fresh bloom of their maturity on them, and from six pounds of such flowers about half an ounce of oil is ex- tracted.

NEW HIGH RECORDS IN COTTON MARKET Opening Is Higher on Favora- bIe News from Liverpool BULLS CONTROL PRICES Predictions of Frost In Western Belt Bring Rush of Buying Orders
 and Market Closes
 Much Higher.
BULLS CONTROL PRICES

New Orleans, October 23.-Spot cotton firm. h-cent higher; sales on the spot, s5O to arrive. 1O0
 Futures opened steady at an advance of g to 12 points on favorable cables. Pri- vate messages from Liverpool said that the large spinners' takings for the week had caused a very strong market. Local shorts were nervous throughout the ses- sion and at the middle Of the morning covering orders from them became so large in volume that a quick spurt re- suited and sent prices up to new high levels for the season. January was put up to 13.9Sc. Predictions of an almost general frost in the western belt added to the strength of the market which, at the highest. was 21 to S3 points over yester- days closing. Longs took profits heavily ou the advance, which served to keep the market from being a runaway af- fair. The close was very steady at a net advance of 19 to 30 points.
 The future market this week closes at a net advance of dollar a bale, the active deliveries standing 20 to 24 points over last weeks closing. Nearly all of this gain was made on the last day of the week and was caused principally by the expectation of a bullish ginners' re- port from the census bureau on Monday During the greater part of the week the market was quiet, with neither the bulls nor the bears trying very hard to infiu- ence prices. A feature of importance was to be found in the reports that pick ing was practically finished in many sec tons.
 Spots close at 13ssc for middling, an advance of A-cent over last week E closing. Staple cotton commanded more attention than ordinary varieties and very high prices were paid for small lots Offerings of any grade or variety could not be called free.

CONTINUED DROP
 IN STOCK MARKET Prices Are Weak Right From
 the Opening Call MONEY WILL 60 HIGHER Indications Tend To Show That the Banking Situation in New York
 Not So Strong as 1t Was
 Some Time Ago.
BY THOMAS c. sHoTwELL.

New York, October 23.-Complete re- versal of the position in speculation was made apparent today when the list opened weak, grew weaker and closed active and feverish at the bottom figures. London sent over prices showing material losses in American shares. Foreign exchange rose sharply and induicated gold exports. Nothing was done in money but higher rates are expected.
 While the average statement of the banks showed heavy reduction of loans, the actual statement showed an increase.
 It is evident that the banking posi- ton in New York is growing weaker. An advance of the Bank of Germany rate which is expected at the end of the coming week will give the United States an opportunity to test the merits of the Aldrich bill which has been the cause of most of the imitation in prices.
 Should actual use of Aldrich money be begun 1t may be possible to turn specu- lative sentiment, but at the moment Wall street is very much depressed.
 Number of shares sold today e69, As, against 190,1s9 a year.
 Par value of bonds sold today s2, ,4SO, ,24O, against $1 406,000 a year ago. Standard oil interests were heavy buy CTS in the first hour on a scale down, particularly of United States Steel rumor on the floor was that the Bank of France had loaned G1,500000' to the Bank of England

Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York, October 23.-(Special.)-s Liverpool advanced on large buying or ders from America which were sent because of the sharp advance here yes- terday afternoon. Many who were short in this country hastened to cover by buying abroad as Liverpool was relatively the lowest market. From the opening here the buying orders were enough to absorb the realizing by those who had waited until the market was reaching 14 cents before taking their profits. Many who had become tired of waiting have been selling all the week, so that when that point was reached there was comparatively little for sale. Frost predictions over the northern belt, together with reports of high prices being paid in the in terior markets gave confidence to many who have waited until now before buy ing. The market closed strong at the highest point of the season in fact since 1903, with few sellers.

New York, October 23-The cotton mar ket opened firm at an advance of to 6 points in response to much better cables than expected, the bullish statement of spinners' takings for the week by the New Orleans cotton exchange and the re- vised figures of the National Ginners' as- socation showing 5.32S.0o0 bales ginned and 91 per cent of the Texas crop picked together with expectations of a bullish census report. Recent sellers were heavy buyers, but a renewal of enormous real izing held the market at a net gain of about 13 to 16 points. The market closed strong, with prices net 13 to 30 points higher. Receipts at the ports today 61,- 055 bales, against 4S,626 last week and 449,979 last year.

 Corn followed the action of the wheat market and the early strength was fol- lowed by a lowering of prices. The initial firmness was based on the bullish weather report, which showed rain and unsettled conditions throughout the corn belt De- cember closed one-quarter to three eighths of a cent lower and May one eighth to a quarter cent lower than yes- terday.
 An extremely light trade in oats left little change in the final figures of the day.
