SUTTON COULDN'T
HAVE SUICIDED
AUTOPSY DlscLosEo FACT THAT
WOUND COULD NOT HAVE
BEEN SELF INFLICTED.

Washington. Sept a. When the
body Of Lieut. James N. Sutton, jr, the
young marine officer who met his death
about two years ago at Annapolis was
exhumed at Arlington cemetery yester-
day, the autopsy performed by physl-
clans representing the navy depart
ment and young Sutton's mother. dis
closed the fact that no bones were
broken, although a conclusion was
found over the right eye
1t had been Mrs. Sutton's conten-
ton that her sons arm had been
broken In the fight which preceded his
death, and that this being the case, he
was shot down and his death could not
have been self-innicted.
George Tully Vaughan of this city,
who represented Mrs. Sutton at tho
autopsy, said tonight that the bullet
wound which caused his death was
three inches above the right ear and
was clean cut. There was no indica-
ton that the hair and scalp had been
burned by powder Surgeon Spear.

saying that he intended to make his
report direct to the navy department
Attorney Van Dyke. associate coun-
sci for Mrs. Sutton, said today that

physical impossibility for Sutton 20
have fired the shot.

NO MORE EXPORTS
OF WOOD PULP
QUEBEC TAKES ACTION IN THE
MATTER or PAPER AND PULP
WOOD EXPORT.

New York, Sept. 14.--The province
Of Quebec has definitely decided To
prohibit the expectation OF pulp wood
cut from crown lands. In September,
1900, the premier of the province
made q promise that the stumpage
rates of go cents per cord on wood
cut from crown lands would not be
raised for a period of ten years. II is
intended to carry out that pledge and
no increase in the stumpage charges
will be made until September, 1910
The Canadian paper makers are urg-
ing the provincial authorities to stop
the expectation of pulp wood cut from
the crown lands, but American own
ers of rights to cut timber on more
than 10000 square miles of those
lands represent that the pledge OF
Sep = of 1900 implied the right Of
impe On for ten years and that in
good faith no prohibition should be
made until the lapse OF that period.
The Canadian paper and pulp inter-
ests rotor that the pledge specifically
related to stumpage taxes, not to ex-
portation, and that the extension of
that privilege to American owners for
another year will retard Canadian
plans and discriminate against the
Canadian manufacturers, who now
suffer because Of the retaliatory
clauses of the United States tariff on
print paper.
The provincial authorities are bal
.ancing the question whether they
should prohibit the expectation of
pulp wood on Jan. /, 1910, or Sept IL,
1910. They calculate that their new
policy will add over 100000 per an
mum in revenues.

Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Sept. 14.--It was the gossip
OF the wheat trade last night that the
Armour interest had sold all the Sep
TENDER that buyers wanted on the
hard spots and had bought all the De-
cember that the crowd were willing
to sell on the small breaks.
Sentiment among the traders here
was more inclined to bull side because
of the decrease on passage and the
smaller worlds shipments than ex-
pected.
Bear interest looked at different
view of the situation and argued that
the larger receipts and lack OF export
demand and lack of speculative inter
est was enough to check any perma
nent advance being maintained for
the Immediate future.--Inter Ocean.

New York Market.

New York, Sept. 14-Despite the linn
tied interest now existing, prices for
most stocks showed an improving ten
dency. The small floating supply
makes 1t possible for the cliques to adj
vansce their favorites without meeting
any resistance to speak Of. While to-
days gains were not Of the specula-
tory order they were large enough to
show that the controlling element are
more in sympathy with an active up
ward movement. The old talk Of a
segregation of the coal properties has
been revived again. These rumors have
been responsible for the activity in all
the coal stocks and the persistency
with which Reading has been bought
recently bears out these reports to
some extent. We look for steady
market with most issues working to a
higher level. Chaplin.
