It was exactly 2 O'Clock when news
came from Washington that the gov
eminent estimate was only 10,0SS, 999
bales-the smallest crop since 1903. I'm
me5iately there was a tremendous rush
of buying. Orders poured in from the
world over, and prices jumped from 20
to 80 points in the first transactions.
Last trades made just before the re-
port was announced were on the basis
of $3.50 for May delivery, the next sales
were made at $3.50, an advance of 81
bale. This was followed by tremendous
trading both ways, and by rapid fluc-
tuatiOns. A break to S15.65 followed,
then came the rise to $3.50. July cot
ton fiuctuated along the same lines,
while March reached $3.50 as its high
point, and closed at $3.50.
The government estimate is about
200, 900 bales below predictions of the
most sanguine of the bulls, and the &C
ton Of the market naturally followed.
SiXteen-cent cotton, so much talked
about, was not realized, but the market
came near it. It now remains to be de-
termined whether estimaters have I'M
derestimated the yield, as has been the
case for the last ten years. During the
time the crop has been underestimate
each year from 100000 to 100000 bales.

Il was staggering along the switches
when it occurred to me that there was
something wrong. I had seen a light in
a section house, and was naturally aim
ing that way, and concocting the worst
tale of woe to tell the section men that
a human being ever framed up. But
something told me that ] had a duty to
perform. and it kept saying to me to
go ahead and look at the switch before
1 did anything else.

to come to the conclusion that there was
something wrong with the switch,
though my eyes were hunger-blurred.
And I also knew that train was due
very soon.
Il gave a yell, and then stumbled in
the direction of the little depot near the
section house. Oh, yes, they came out

But never mind that. I became a

FEDERATION TO BACK
UNION OF SWITCHMEN
Announcement Made by GOmpers
After Conference With Presi-
dent Hawley.

Cincinnati, Dec. 1O.-The American
Federation of Labor will support the
railroad switchmen on strike in the
northwest to the extent of its powers.
This announcement was made today
by Samuel Gompers, president of the
federation, after an extended confer
ence with Frank Hawley, president Gf
the American Switchmen's union.
1t is understood to mean that if rail-
roal officials do not cOncede demands Of
the strikers trouble may spread until
it involves other great labor Organiza-
tons in the railway field.
eve will support the switchmen to
the extent Of our ability both financial
ly and morally"
Such was the declaration of Mr.. Com
pers at the close of his conference with
Mr.. HaWley. The labor leader refused
to state whether this meant an extern
sion of the strike, but he asserted that
after a full investigation, he was sat
isfied that the demands of the strikers
were Just and that they merited and
would receive the support of all unions.
Mr. Hawley was jubilant over the de
cision of Mr.. Gompers. He ridiculed
published assertions of railroad Off
cials that the strike was practically
ended and said:
"They cannot beat us now that the
Federation of Labor is behind US
According to Mr.. Hawley, a shortage
in the coal supply in the northwest is
imminent on account of the strike. He
said such a shortage already was
apparent in Minneapolis, where, he said
public schools are suffering from a lacB
of fuel
4 am sorry said the switchmen's
chief, that a tieup I'm business must re.
suit, but when we are fighting for our
rights we cannot afford to consider
these things"

COTTON PRICES At
HIGH WATER STAGE
Sensational Scene on the New
York ExChange-CrOp of
1909 Said to Be Short.

New York, Dec. 10.-Not since the
Sully boom OF 1904 has the New York
exchange witnessed a more sensational
scene or a more spectacular rise in
prices than occurred today with the an
nouncement of the government crop re-
port.
With galleries crowded with visitors
from the south augmented by friends
and relatives of operators and other in
teTested spectators, the market scared
to a new high record for the season,
with gains of more than 50 a bale over
yesterday. Both the May and the July
options touched the high mark of $3.50,
both gaining approximately a. points
over yesterdays close.
Bull brokers prevented a more VIC
lent advance as they had distributed
heavy selling orders every points up
from $3.50 for May and July. They
sold enormously, supplying the demand
of shorts. and also the thrush of buy
ing orders from Wall street, Chicago
and southern operators, and local and
New England dry goods interests. The
market continued in an excited state up
TO the close, with estimates that 100000
bales had changed hands in the last
hour.
May closed at S15.67 and July at S17.74.

Natives having killed four Spanish

lost heavily. When the Spanish
force returned muster showed that
forty had been killed or wounded the

The situation is extremely threat
