New York. Oct. 22.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say:
Trade and industrial DEVELOPMENTS
are largely favorable. Continued cool
weather furnishes marked stimulus to
demand for heavy wearing appareI
dry goods, clothing and shoes, and
also benefits demands for hardware.

rails at retail in most De-
mand for coal has been perceptibIv
q~ulckened for steam sizes. The LIQUOR
trades also display more life, which
may be Variously attributed to wealth
er influences or the renewal of CON
sumption made possible by improved
pay rolls in general industry. Job
blng trade is good for the season.
There is still evidence of conserya-
tism bred of higher prices asked for
cotton goods for distant delivery bnt
the general tendency is still upward
and staple products are selling bet

industry the previous full pace is
maintained. Iron and steel easily lead

TWO MORE SNAKE STORIES.
One Snake Swallows Doorknobs While
Another Makes Away With Eggs
and Young Chickens.

Another Makes Away With Eggs
and Young Chickens.
(Wadesboro Messenger and InteIli-
gencer.)
That all the snakes that do stunts
out Of the ordinary do not come from
Arson is proved by the true tale
told below Of the exploits of a reptile
hat made it's home among the hills
of Montgomery county. This story
was told the Messenger and Intelli-
rencer by Rev. P. II. SeagO, of Lilies
VILE township, and he got it from Mrs,
John Mckenzie, Of PeSin, MOntgom-
cry county. The NJ. & !. Vouches for
the truthfulness Of Mr.. Seago and he
does the same for Mrs. Mckenzie.
But to the story. Several years
ago Mrs. Mckenzie, AFTER missing a
number of eggs from 9 nest in the
lot, put a good sized %doorknOb in
the nest, and this likewise disap-
peared. The nest was then broken
up and no more eggs were missed un-
til recently. Remembering her form
err experience Mrs. Mckenzie placed
another doorknOb in the nest that was
being robbed, and it Immediately dis
appeared. The day after the last knob
was missed a large chicken snake
was killed near the nest. Two large
protuberances were noticed on the
snakes body and the reptile was cut
open. when out rolled both knobs.
The next story is vouched for by
Mr. r. A. Colson, of AnsonVille town
ship. A hen of Capt. J. J. Colson. OF
Lilesville township, father Of Mr.. Col
son. had been in the habit Of laying
in the hollow Of a large locust tree tor

New York, Oct. 22.-After carry
ing prices to a new high record for
the season the bulls have met with
q check. Unable to leap the IA cent
barrier here, although this was done
in New Orleans. a good many people
have sold out. The result has been
some setback at times i'll prices. Bears
have been aided by the Ellison figures
on the consumption. He puts it at
235,O00 bales less than last year, When
his preliminary figures, it seems, were
400 900 bales too low. But there can
be no Disgusting one thing, and that
is that the spot demand in Liverpool
after a prOtracted period Of unusual
activity has now dropped to merefy
nominal proportions. English and
Continental spinners seem disposed to
make haste more slowly. They seem
to be much better supplied with cot
ton after the recent heavy exports.
Also the advance in the Bank of
England's rate of discount of 5 per
cent, the highest since January, 1908,
q had a noticeable effect in Liver
pool and elsewhere.
New England people are still talk
ing of short time. The Weather has
i'll the main improved somewhat
Europe has been a big seller here ana
rumors that certain large Chicago o.
New Orleans interests were selling
at one time had more or less effect.
On approaching IA cents the market
has acted very much as it did when
1t was one, two and even three cents
lower, partly because then, as now,
the price was considered high. But
on the other hand if bulls have not
been able to leap the IA cent hurdle
they have prevented any serious de-
cline. OF late Wall Street, New Or
leans, Memphis and Western interests
have at times bought freely. An I'm
expectedly large short interest was
discovered the other day in the De
cember option. The National Gin
nerS' Association report purong the
ginning up to October Is at only s.
$4,000 bales. or about 800, 900 bales
less than many had expected, had
more or less of a braci1g effect, es-
pecially as it added that 1916 per cent
of the crop has been picked as against
54 per cent a yea ago. Besides, there
has been some frost and heavy rains
have occurred in the Southwest.
Dry goods reports are more favor
able. FAN River is strong and New
York shows more snap. The recent
rise in the raw material has not pre-
vented an increased demand for the
manufactured goods.
I1SIt ana tieIe III the cOtJOn Deit
some signs We been reported of q
decreased movement of the crop.
Rightly or wrongly the tendency lat
ferly has been to reduce rather than
increase the estimates on the crop.
They range however, all the way from
100000 bales to 11.SOO.0O while
in some instances higher figures are
named. Bulls comfort themselves
with the argument that ever taking
EllisOn's figures on the consumption
as they stand, thev are only 235OOO
bales less than last year, While the
crop IN their judgment is fully two
to three million bales less than then
The rank and file of the speculative
world however, is inclined to proceed
more cautiously for the time being.

FIVE JURORS CHOSEN
SECOND DAYS SESSION OF CAPTAIN
 HAINSss TRIAL.
Defendant's Counsel Have -Intimatei That He Will Not Be called to Testify in His Own
 Behalf

Flushing, N. r.. April 2o.--After two days of tedious grinding to find jury to try Captain Peter c. Hains. IT,. for the murder of William E. Annis at the Bayside Yacht Club last August, court adjourned today with five men in the jury box.
 Threes jurors were secured today. During the examination of prospective jurors today 1t was apparent that both sides wefE striving to obtain men of advanced age and of family responsi- bilities.
 In the course of examination of tales men, the defendants counsel intlmated today that Captain Hains would not be called to testify in his own behalf.
 "This case will never Teach the jury, said Daniel O'ReilIy, one of the attor- neys for the defendant. and the ap- pointment of a. commission in lunacy to determine the prisoners sanity ia in my opinion inevitable"
 MT. O'Reiliy's statement was made shortly before the convening of court for the second day of the trial before Supreme Court Justice Garretson. Two Jurors in the box were the net result of the first days session and today the work of examining additional talesmen was taken up. If the expectation of Captain HaIns's counsel Is realized, the trial will not last more than a day or two after the jury box Is hlied.

Eley's name. but would enter into contest with any member present to get more members for the Commercial Club. either for three months, six months, or any time that would suit his contestant. His state- ment to enter contest was liberal- ly applauded. but no one took the mat ter up from the floor.
 President Ball then stated that the meeting had been called at S:15 o'clock when 1t was scheduled for 6 o'clock. He stated that he felt that an apology was due those present, but the fact that a hundred men were present at 8 o'clock never occurred to him as pos sible.

 Adjournment was taken to the rear room of the suite, where sandwiches and cakes and fruit punch were dis pensed.
