RIOT CALL MAKES
EIGHT POLICEMEN RUN.
Alleged Battle Turns Out to Be
One Of Words.

The neighkorhood at Eighth and

two plainclothesmen in d carriage
rushed up to 1861 Eighth avenue, pre-
pared 10 quell a riot. But all the guar
dams of the peace had to deal with
a a war of words, which they quickly
suppressed.
The sergeant was notified by a little
girl that some one was lighting with
Der father and mother at the corner of
Summer and Eighth emu Patrol
mar cortello accompanied the little girl
TO that place and found everything
peaceful.
Twenty minutes later two men rode
up to the statior-house in a carriage
and excitedly told about a mob firing
guns. brandishing' knives and razors
and killing people at 1861 Eighth ave
nue.. 1t was then that the riot order
was issued.
A crowd of 200 men, women and chill
dren had collected in front of the
house. but not a single weapon was
in evidence. After a diligent search
by the patrelman a brick vas found in

The affair was nothing more than a

JULY COTTON GOES

QUICKLY FOLLOWS
Continued Nervousness and Elk.
element Mark Days
Trading.

NEW YORK, July 29.-Continued
nervousness and excitement marked
the last half day of trading in July
contracts on the New York Cotton Ex-
change this morning, and there were
further sensational fluctuations. July
opened at 1890, but while many had
anticipated a Anal squeeze of shorts. it
appeared that the speculative short in
terest had already obtained cover.
1t Is estimated that short notices fer
about 5000 bales were issued today In
the windup of the July trading, and,
including this cotton. the total deliv-
cries of July have beer about 220, o0d
bales. 1t would seem therefore thai
the big bull leaders, since the first u
May, have accepted deliveries Of oyer
800, 900 bales Of cotton In New York,
valued at $45, Oo0, 900.
On a very few transactions today
July broke to 1880, or 6s points from
the closing figures OF last night, and
125 points from the high record of the
season. At this level the offerings
were absorbed, and there al a quick
rally to 1875, following an offer from
w. P. Brown to buy every bale OF
August that the market would sell
him at 1878. Mr.. Brown offered his
trade cards to brokers around the ring
telling them to I'LL them In for any
amount they desired to sell. But In the
last half-hour there was a renewal Of
the selling of July, and the price hnc.
tuated rapidly between 1870 and 1856
At the last moment Frank Payne was
offering to take all the July for SAX
at 1880. and the final sale posted or
the board was at that price.

7l8,O00, 00O-New York
Has 40 Per Ct. of Total.

WASHINGTON July 29.-The enor-
nous sum of 81. rs. 600, 900 is owed by
the 15S cities in the country having each
a population of more than $4,000. The
figures show net Indebtedness and are
given out by the census bureau as a
result of It's canvass for 1908.
The same authority finds that of this
sum New York owes 1884. 000, 600, or al
most 40 per cent of the aggregate. This
is more than seven times the amount Of
the net Indebtedness of any other city
and more than one-half of the total
amount owed by the twenty-nine next
largest cities in the country. 1t also is
shown that of the $275, 900. 900 spent for
improvements in the 1873 cities in 1904,
New York expended more than $50, 00o,-
900. or nearly one-third the entire sum,
OF the total dett increase for the year
1856, 81, 1855, nearly one-half Is credited
TO New York. The per capita inaebt-

than that of n other city, exceeding
S15T, as compared with $123 for Cincin-
natl. $119 for Boston and s113 for CAL
weston. the other cities making the
nearest approach.
It Is pointed out that a large pro-
portion of the New York Improvement
expenditures have been for public
service convenienees. The betterment
of The water system, the construction
Of toll bridges and other self-support-
ing services are responsible for 81 per

storm-eloud of discomfort which rolled
into and around the First Precinct

His voice trembling with unsup-

magnitude OF the offense which hesbe-
lieved had been perpetrated against his
faith by a direct and inidnight-hued
representative of the Queen Of
Israeli who, fortunately for what was
left of peace and quiet In the vicinity,
could not be present, outlined to Judge
Hahn the reason why he should accept
a complaint against the Dahomey
quintet.
1t seems that in some inexplicable
manner it had beer bruited about the
Church of God and Saints of Christ
headquarters In Livingston street that
five coffee-colored carpet-baggers from
Yonkers were soliciting aims in New
ark for the Home of the Daughters
and the Queen of Jerusalem Now, 1t
is a wel.-known fact that the "Daugh-

Quiet Is Restored.
At this ju~ncture court officers inter-

beer a snnguine encounter. When quiet
had beer partially restored Judge
Hahn said he could not see his way

why don't you wear badges with

asked of the members of the delegation
from Livingston street, and the sug-
gestion was well received.
A conference was held in the court
room and yellow was fixed as h of
fetal color of the badges. subject, of
course, to the approval of the queen,
who is eccentric n impetuous and
possessed of considerable bodily

that the legend on the badge should be;
