SIGNS OF PROSPERITY.

Icreased acreage promises TO give II
to us. This prospect keeps prices
down.
In March the balance In our for
eign trade was s19,OO0.000 against
us, but the margin was reduced to
1883 900 in April, and the present
indications are that when the ac-
counts are made up tonight the mar
gin for May will be found to be on
the right side OF the account once
more. Manufacturers are figuring In
the exports to a larger extent than
eve. before. but agriculture will
probably resume a little of its old
time prominence with the big crops
which are promised to us. The traffic
managers say they are pleased with
the returns which are coming TO
them, and they ought to be. The In
creased purchases of our stocks and
bonds in the past few weeks by
England. France and Germany win
check the tendency toward gold ex-
portation. while the prospects for
the listing OF steel on the Paris
bourse. which are again being talked
about, Is drawing the attention OF
foreign investors toward us to an
extent unknown since the early boom
days of last June and July After
the luis of the past two or three
months in the iron and steel market,
the upward movement in purchases
has been resumed. At the custom
house and from the collections OF in
ternal revenue the governments re-
Iceipts are making new high records.
Despite the big disbursements the
deficit for the IL completed months
of the fiscal year is only about a
third of that OF 1909. The last
month Of the cycle. when II enters
tomorrow, will carry a much more
cheerful aspect than did its fore
runner OF IL months ago.
The Paducah evening sun., 1910-06-01

On the governments calendar
June hold a rather important place.
II is the last month of the financial
year, and when it enters the book
keepers at the national capital Will
begin to prepare to balance their
accounts and write a new datemark
ON their ledged. In the Industrial
world that month has only a minor
distinction. Nevertheless, the story
which 1t win tell in 1910 will be of
some interest to the public. Be-
tween tomorrow morning and Sat
urday night the railway, Industrial
and traction corporations which have
their disbursing Offices at New York
will pay out SIS 900 900 In interest
and dividends. as compared with
SIS, 100000 at the beginning of
June In 1909. These are figures
which were compiled by the New
York Journal OF Comerce This will
bring the total for the calendar year
thus far up to s1s6. 900. 600, as
against s153. 900, 900 for the corre-
spending months In 1909 and $751;
900, 900 for 1908. Several important
corporations are resuming or increas-
ing their dividends while others are
enrolling themselves in the divideu-
paying class for the first time.
One of the big events of the past
week or two in the financial world
was the breaking OF the May wheat
corner, and the decline in prices OF
wheat. corn and cotton. Wheat prom
ises to be a much larger yield than
that of 1909. And. despite the late
ness of the season. the same Is true
of cotton. At intervals OF two years
the country has had three cotton
crops which have gone above the
13, 400. 0OO-bale mark. These were
in 1904. 1906 and 1908. A big
yield is due in 1910. and the in

every adverse critic of the former
president has made. For our part,
We would like to know what is be-
hind his speech In London yester-
day, charging England to look to
her obligations In Egypt. He spoke
his mind freely TO the Nationalists
at Cairo after sojourn of year In
British African possessions, asso-
ciating with the colonial officials;
and he spoke without reserve yes
terday In London. after an associa-
ton OF some days with British Off
cialdom. Theodore Roosevelt knew
what he was doing, and knew what
he was saying would not be dis
pleasing to those. who have the best
interests of the government at heart.
Probably 1t required just this criti-
cism from the outside to drive the
British public into support of a
strong governmental policy in Egypt.
We don't know all the facts: but
have great confidence in the discre-
tion. as well as in the boldness OF
Mr.. Roosevelt.

PROTESTS BILL
SOUTHERN COTTON BUYERS AS
ISOLATION UP IN ARMS.
Result of Recent Failures Foreign
Bankers Make Unjust De-
mands.

Atlanta. Ga. June l.--For the pur
pose OF appointing a representative
to go to London to protest against
the demand that all southern cotton
be shipped on port bills of lading,
the Southern Cotton Buyers asso-
citation will hold a meeting in this
city next Thursday. The representa-
tives OF the association probably will
be authorized to propose surety
company az protection for through
bills of lading as now used.
The present demand OF foreign
bankers IL the result OF recent fail
ures OF two big southern exporting
firms. Knight, Yancey 4 Co. of De
catur. Ala, and steele, Miller a Co.,
of Corinth, Miss. by which the for
eigners lost In the neighborhood OF
s7.OO0.0O0.
II is claimed by bankers OF the in
land cities that II port bills of ladlng
are required. It would be impossible
to do any amount OF business from
interior cities, with Galveston. New
Orleans, Savannah. Mobile and other
coast points practically controlling
the cotton export business OF the
south.
The question was discussed at a
meeting OF the banking committee of
the Atlanta chamber OF commerce
today. and recommendation will be
laid before the Cotton Buyers asso-
citation at its meeting Thursday.
The demand OF foreign bankers
that all future cotton be shipped up
on port bills OF lading is causing the
gravest concern among Memphis cot.
ton merchants A committee ap-
pointed by President w j. Abston
Of the cotton exchange. Is now work
ing on the subject and will report its
findings To a general meeting OF the
exchange TO be called within the next
week.
The recent failure OF knight. Yam
cey g. Co. at Decatur. Ala. In con.
nectlon with which there are many
charges OF fraudulent hills OF iading
has emphasized the need for a change
In the methods employed In handllng
cotton. though Memphis dealers dc
not believe the remedy lies In the ex
elusive use OF the port bill Of lading
This requirement. II adhered to
would have the erect OF practically
eliminating the inland cities Of this
country from the foreign markets, q
Is claimed.
II is expected more equitable
remedy. which Is at the same time
az safe, will be recommended by th'
committee which has the matter nov
In hand.
SO far as could be learned last
night. no one from Memphis is goine
to the Atlanta meeting on Thursday

Aside from the adoption OF the
.Cummins provision the action OF the
day consisted IN the rejection. by
a vote OF 20 to 81, OF Browns
amendment. prohibiting the consoll-
datlon OF competitive railroads.
The principal discussion of the
day was over Browns amendment
and I.afollctte's amendment requir-
ing the interstate commerce com
missioa TO make a physical valuation
OF railroads. Previous TO the vote
on the Brown provision. speeches
were made In opposition by Bailey.

The amndmet. he said. met the ap-
proval OF the interstate commerce
Icommission. and he predicted that II
defeated II would not be long until
the railroads would be petitionlng
for It's enactment.
The amendment was supported by
Bailey and Borah and opposed by
Elk'ns. Elkins said II would cost
s. 600 900 TO make such valuation
as WIS required. and that by the
time Il was finished another would
be necessary. No vote was taken
today.
Lafollette offered resolution d.
rectlng the attorney general TO

sented the measure when Senator

ment that the attorney general had
acted already In that direction.

In the house nearly the entire

pose.

Hundreds of people have puzzled
at the meaning OF the symbol promi-
nently displayed on the street cars
of the Paducah Traction company.
It is a new symbol adopted by the
Stone & Webster company. serving
to Identify the many interests of the
company with the central organiza-
ton. The device Is composed OF a
triangle enclosing the triskelion,
both figures, whose concentrations are
dignified by great antiquity. The
triskeliou is symbolic of the sun,
energy, life, motion and progress.
while the triangle is suggestive of
stability; the combination suggest
ing the idea OF movement and en-
ergy confined by the limitations OF
permanence. The new symbol will
be placed on all of the property of
the company, and also on the sta1
tionery.

Some Stories Around the Town.

Over in Metropolis last night. Ar
thur HALEY, an amusement park pro-
moter. dreamed that he was fighting
lions. and nearly killed his bed-fel-
low, George Ladd. whose left elbow
IL fractured and may make his arm
permanently stiff. Sometime during
the night HALEY conceived and ex-
ecuted the novel scheme of placing
herd of ferocious African lions
in a series of dens in the park, so
connected by a tunnel as to give the
appearance of a real jungle. where
people could come upon the beasts
una wares and enjoy the sensation OF
being startled by their roaring, and
yet be perfectly safe. He forgot,
however, TO enclose one of the dens
and the whole herd took after him.
He was thoroughly exhausted and
just as a huge man-eater sprang at
him and he could feel the cats hot
breath on his cheek, he ducked un-
der the covers with a scream Of ter
ror. and seized Ladd about the
waist In a death grip. When he
felt himself being dragged down,
Ladd said, he had sense enough to
hold his breath untll he came TO the
surface again. and then he struck out
for shore with Hahey clinging to
him. Ladd said he remembered an
admonition of drowning mans
struggles. to knock him senseless
and drag him ashore by the hair.
Consequently he swung with all his
might on Hailey's nose and was
grabbing wildly for his hair. when
they both struck the floor, 300
pound HALEY on top. The blow on
his nose awakened HALEY, who
thought he had been bitten by the
Hon; but Ladd was stunned. When
he was picked up 1t was found that
his left elbow was fractured.

BIG HATS AND SWITCHES
CONDEMNED IN EUROPE
Heavy Tax and Ministerial Cruz
sade Doom Fashions

LONDON, June 4.-The day of the
large hat and the overelaborate coiffure
seems to be over. In England the sud-
den donning of mourning has altered
all the fashions to a remarkable extent.
The large hat has almost disappeared,
and with it the mass of false hair that
was necessary to make it keep its
proper position on the head.
In Rome a petition has been laid be-
fore parliament urging that prohibi-
tive duties be placed on the large head
gear fashionable there, also that
women be taxed heavily for the
switches of hair which they coil and
plait around their heads. These duties
are necessary, say the petitioners, be-
cause women have seemingly lost their
Judgment regarding hats and coiffures.
In France special sermons have been
preached against the big hats in sew
eral parishes. One preacher suggested
that women should come to church
without hats at all. so that men could
contemplate the altar in peace, while
others have urged the women of their
congregations to observe what is fit-
ting in church and dress their heads
modestly and quietly.
Naturally, with all this opposition,
the big hat is becoming unpopular
among women of various nations, and
with its disappearance among the Eng
lish women, who first wore 1t, it's van
ishing elsewhere becomes a matter of
course

copy of what Is described as ''the most
outrageous Indictment to numbering
Europeans yet published in the Indian
press has reached London. 1t is held
to justify the recent vigorous suppress

The article is headed killing No
Murder" and passage from it reads
I'VE once more appear before you to

ghis Foreigners more particularly the
English). Your life is not worth even
dust or straw if you do not soil

You must kill as many of these
white sheep as you lay hands on,
whether men, women or children. This
sort of killing we call no murder, but
a sacred duty that devolves on the
