Took the Hint.

A story is told of a certain English
bishop we'll known for his verbosity
who rose to address the house of lords
on a very important occasion. II will
divide my speech under twelve heads"
he said. to the discomfort of his audi
ence.
The Marquis of Salisbury begged to
be allowed to interpose with little
anecdote. "a friend Of mine was re-
turning home late one night" he said,
"when opposite st. Paurs he saw an
intoxicated man trying to ascertain the
time on the big clock there. Just then
it began to strike and slowly tolled out
10. The man listened, looked hard at
the clock and said: 'Confound you!
Why couldn't you have said that all
at once|"
The bishop heartily Joined in the
laughter which followed and took the
hint contained in the story.

COTTON JUMPS HIGH ON GINNERS' REPORT Ginning Figures Very Much
 Less Than Expected ADVANCE HOLDS WELL In Connection With the Ginners' Re- pOrt Further Low Crop Estimates
 Are Issued Which Help
 Prices Largely
ADVANCE HOLDS WELL

New York. November 21.AThere was l
 jump of nearly s2.O0 per bale in the price of cotton in the New York futures
 market this morning. following the re-
 port of the census bureau showing less cotton ginned to November 1 than had
 been anticipated and while the market
 later was nervous and irregular as a
 result of heavy realizing, the close was
 firm at a net gain of 2e9Ss points for
 the day.
 The opening was steady at net ad-
 vance of 2S@1 points. with May cotton
 selling at 14.96c on or shortly after the
 call as result of excited covering and fresh buying for long account. Liverpool cables had been relatively firmer earlier with private advices re- porting good trade demand for the continent and just before the opening here the census report was published
 showing s,764,l53 bales ginned to Novem-
 Der 14, when the trade had been looking
 for about 900 bales on the average.
 Realizing was very heavy at the initial
 advance and there was good deal of
 selling by certain large spot interests,
 under which prices gradually worked off, but houses with western, southern and European connections were big buyers
 and after a reaction from to 13 points the market firmed up again in the late I trading on covering by early sellers and renewal of bull support.
 It seemed that the census figures were | more effective in swinging sentiment in | the direction of small crop estimates for | the reason that prominent travelling ex- | pert issued a report estimating the yield
 at only 10,945.00O bales, exclusive of lint | CTS, which may add another 350,0oO bales | to the commercial crop. At any rate, 1 the days operations seemed to reflect in- | creased confidence in estimates of under | Il, 0,0O0 bales and toward the close there
 seemed to be more outside buying with | last prices only shade of at the top. | Spot markets officially reported early were unchanged to 3-16c higher. The census report indicated a considerably
 heavier ginning between November l and 1 14 this year than last. but recent pri-
 vate reports from the south have tended | to confirm the claims of bullish est-
 matters that an unusually large percent
 age of the crop had been glnned to | November 14.
 | Receipts at the ports today. 6066l bales,
 against 62376 last week and 32,842 last year For the week 375000 bales against | l4,s2s last week and 9,556 last year Todays receipts at New Orleans were
 11,eS5 bales against GAP last year.

DOWNWARD TURN IN
 THE WHEAT MARKET
Several Bearish Factors Aid
 in Causing Decline
VISIBLE SUPPLY LARGE
ings and Prices Close Lower. Oats and Provisions Are
 Also Weak

Chicago, November 2l.-Worlds ship ments nearly 1000, GOO bushels larger than expected g. huge increase in the dTnited States visible supply and denials of frost in Argentina turned wheat downward at the finish today. Although prices most of the session had been above the level of the previous close, there was a net loss of Ac to 3sc. Later the figures for corn showed decline of Ac to ss@1ac. Oats were unchanged to 1sc off and provisions down Sc to BOG.
 Wheat was weak at almost the lowest point of the day when the gong cleared the pit. The early market had reflected higher European prices due to unfavora- ble crop advices from Argentina. Large ly because of drouth damage in Buenos Ayres province, one dispatch estimated the exportable surplus from the entire country at only s2.0OOoo0 bushels. Frost news continued to come but trouble from low temperature was said to be restricted to the northern part of Argentina. For eigners evidently believed the tale of ab- normal cold for cable quotations advanced
 
 strength for the time being was the fact that stocks at Minneapolis showed a de- crease of 10000 bushels for two days the first reduction there in many weeks. This influence was altogether lost sight of, however when the big figures for the visible supply came out. The final stroke against the bulls was an authoritative ex- plicit statement that there had been no frost whatever In the Argentine It was a decidedly bearish market in conse- quence the last half-hour. During the day the range for the May option was from 96A@s6ssc to 97t4c with the close asc off at 96asc.
 Corn showed heaviness under increased country offerings and because Of favora- ble weather and slow eastern demand. May fiuctuated from 46ssc to 467sc and closed easy 4c net lower at 46iAc. Cash corn was weak. No yellow finished at 511aQ52c
 Oats trade consisted almost wholly of changing over December to May. Price variations were unimportant. May sold from 334sc to 337sQ34c and in the end was at 33%c, just isc below the latest figures Saturday.
 In provisions there was further liduida- ton of November lard and no improve ment for cash products. At the end of the day pork had lost 121sc to 171sc; lard, Dc to BOG. and ribs. 71hc to 10@121tc. Future quotations were as follows:
