THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-The cotton
market opened irregular. four points
higher to sever points lower, with re-
dictionary sentiment encouraged by
lower cables and reports that leading
pulls had liquidated. Right after the
call, however, there was aggressive
support from prominent Southern in
terests and prices shot up rapidly, with
recent sellers for short account appar-
emily in a panic. December contracts
advanced from 1850 to 14.64 without in
termediate sales. January made new
high records and the general list sold
20 to % points net higher.
With realizing still on a big scale
offerings were well absorbed during the
late forenoon by continued bull support
and a demand from fresh bulls. with
prices at midday at practically the
high point Of the season, or some Il
to 22 points above the closing figures OF
last night.

LITTLE MOTHER" DEAD OF
BURNS, TO BE BURIED SUNDAY
Death Relieved Sufferings of
Dora Clark.

Little ~12-year-old Dora Clark will be
buried from her late home, rs Goble
street, Sunday afternoon. The Rev. DR..
Davis w. Lusk, of the Sixth Presbyter-
ian Church, will conduct the services,
while the interment will be in Fair
mount Cemetery.
After suffering intense torture for
eight days with two-thirds of her body
practically burned to a crisp, death
came to the relief of the little mother
at st. James's Hospital yesterday aft
ernoon. A week ago last Wednesday
little Dora was sent home from school
early. Her mother, who is compelled
to work to, support her children, was
absent, and as some of the younger
children were hungry, Dora fused
around the kitchen stove getting them
something to eat.
In some way her clothes caught fire
and she ran screaming from the house
to the yard below, where she rolled
in the grass in a vain effort to put out
the flames. Some men working next
door came to her assistance, but before
the flames We're e~xtinguished she was
burned beyond all possible chance of
recovery. Her wonderful vitality and
patience, though suffering ~fearfully.
amazed the hospital attendants.

WALL STREET NOTES.

Uptown Sentiment-Even those In
terests who do not feel at all pessi-
mistic on the genera situation and
who think that the stock market will
not have a large decline in the near
future say that undoubtedly the adj
vances of the last two days have been
due very largely to the closing out of
short contracts. They think that there
is a fair-sized short interest yet, and,
IL market for the most active stocks Is
carried somewhat higher through
manipulation, the short interest will
be still further reduced. In the opinion
of these interests, however, the market
will not have a big rally from present
level by reason of short coverings.
Brokers look for some further i'm
provement in stocks today and believe
that the market will slowly work
higher, although there will be marked
irregularity In its upward movement.
Copper has been bought by the best
informed interests, one house which 10
associated with the management of the
company through its directorate TAX
ing upward of Is, 900 shares yesterday.
Apparently the buying of this Is not
based on any decided Improvement In
the metal trade conditions, at least
there are none apparent to the general
trade, so that it has been Inferred that
the improvement is due to negotiations
for a more harmonious understanding
among the producers. Copper trade
interests have been at work with this
object in view for a number of years,
but have never succeeded. Copper and
Reading ought to lead the advance to-
day.
