STORM REPORTS BULulSH

New York, September 21-The tropical storm sent prices to new high records again today and practically all active months sold well above the 13c level on an excited buying movement. Realizing cost the market part of it's gain later. and the close was barely steady at an advance Of to Il points on reports that the gulf storm had entered the country by way of the central gulf coast and had worked northward, covering a wide area and causing great damage in the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama and parts of Tennessee.
 Realizing was very heavy at the Initial advance, but was taken care of on A scale-down to the closing prices of last night, following which the market devel- oped renewed firmness on a continuation Of the outside buying movement. numer- ous private wires from the outskirts of the storm area claiming severe damage to open cotton and reports that the addi- tional setback to the crop was having decided influence on consuming buy CTS. At the high point December con- tracts sold at 13.11c and May at 13 16c with the general list showing a net ad- vance of 1a to 20 points, and a gain of 1c lound or over from the low level of last week.
 The buying became less urgent around this level, and the market later eased off under heavy realizing, but showed the presence or good buying orders on scale down as recent sellers for long account appeared willing to replace their cotton on moderate dips. Southern spot markets officially reported early were h@Ac high CT, Il ere were large sales particularly at Savannah. Wire service with the storm area was practically ni and details con- cerning property loss and crop damage are not yet available, but whatever the effect Of the storm it has occurred in time to influence the October bureau.

the advance was lost Communication with the south was difficult, owing 10 the severe storm which passed over Mo- bile and New Orleans yesterday and to- day. which has doubtless caused great damage to the crop. both in quantity and quality The feeling tonight Is that the advance has been so rapid that reaction is due. as the aggressive short interests are thought to have covered, leaving the market without the support that comes from the short covering. On the other hand the storm must decrease the quantity of cotton produced this year at a time when spinners will require every bale. Liverpool is expected points lower tomorrow.

MEAT PACKERS INDICTED
Cudahy Company Charged With
Dsfrauding Government.
Alleged Violations of Internal Rev.
enue Laws Aggregating $4,000
Stamps For Uncolored Oleo.

Topeka, Kan. - Indictments were
returned here by the Federal Grand
Jury against the Cudahy Packing
Company, Of Kansas City, Kan, on
737 counts for defrauding the Gov
ernment out of $4,000 by violations
of the internal revenue laws.
The company was indicted on the
charge of wholesale violations of the
United States internal revenue laws.
The charge is that it defrauded the
Government of more than $80,0O0 in
revenues on oleomargarine. The min
imum fine on each of the 1871 counts
is $1,000.
The revenue law provides that each
pound of uncolored oleomargarine
must bear a revenue stamp of quar-
ter of cent, but that each pound to
which coloring matter has been added
to give it the appearance of butter,
ten-cent revenue stamp must be at
tached. 1t is charged in the indict-
ments that the Cudahy Packing Com
pany has sold the colored product un
der the quarter of cent tax.
1t is claimed by the Government
officials that the Cudahy company has
succeeded in monopolizing the oleo
margarine market by selling the col
ored product and paying the tax or
the basis of uncolored.
District Attorney Bone decided to
bring a civil action in the Federal
Court against the company to have
the plant and machinery used IN the
manufacture of oleomargarine confis-
Gated. The oleomargarine manufac-
turing plant is connected with the
Cudahy packing establishment in
Kansas City, Kan.

Some New Words.

A correspondent welcomes the new
words aviator" and aviation" but
asks whether, If @navis' gives "navi-
gator" and navigation, aavis"
should not give "avigator" and "avi-
CATION" However, he adds tolerant
ly, we must not have too great re-
gard for such niceties after having
allowed such words as "chlorodyne'
(literally green pain") to become
current.
Another new word, which noticed
on the boardings of neighboring
town, is "picturedrome, which, be-
ing strictly interpreted, would be a
picture racecourse-not bad name
for cinematograph show And this
naturally leads me to the skating rink
advertisements, which announce that
there are @three sessions daily
which, since it presumably does not
refer to skating accidents, gives us
quite new meaning for an old word,
remarkably different from it's original
one.-Manchester Guardian.

Near Delicacies.

The mother of delicate Lanca-

debility, called in a physician, who,
to tempt the patient to eat, pre-
scribed-so writer in Good Health
states-a few oysters and little
champagne.
where do you suppose TN get
money to pay for luxuries like oysters
and champagne?" demanded the
mother.
The doctor shrugged his houlders,
knowing that many of the Lanca-
shire miners earn good wages, and
often spend fair amount of them.
.'Tn an extreme case like this" he
suggested, cit would not be extrav-
agance.
Some days later he met the mother,
and made inquiries for the girl. II
hope she is BETTER" said he.
"Well, she isn't" replied the
mother "She's lots worse"
'sWorse?" repeated the doctor, in
surprise. II thought she would be-
gin to pick up. Did you give her
what l prescribed"
"Well, not exactly" said the
mother, "but give 'er the nearest
the likes of us could afford. / give
'er cookies and ginger beer"

and take nourishment in such form
as my stomach could digest.
Il had read much about Postum,
but never thought it would fit my
case until one day decided to quit
coffee and give it a trial and make
sure about it, So / got a package
and carefully followed the directions.
