again attracting attention. 1t is. as we

ARRAIGNED ON CHARGE OF
UTTERlNG FALSE CHECKS
Man Whose Joy Ride Was Interrupted
by Arrest Is HeId in
$1,000 Bond

J. e. Adler, who while participating
in a Joy ride with several women Sat-
urday was arrested on suspicion of
having passed several valueless checks
on Los Angeles merchants, was ar
raigned in Police Judge Frederickson's
court yesterday on a charge of OBJ
tanning goods under false pretenses.
His bonds were set at $1,000 and his
preliminary examination will be set
later.
Adler is said by the detectives to
have passed several checks for small
amounts on Los Angeles merchants in
payment for purchases of goods.
The specific charge against him is
that he ordered suit of clothes from
A. solomon at 704 South Spring street
and gave him check for $5 ON the
Southern Trust company as a deposit
for the suit February 5, it is alleged
in the complaint, Adler called for the
suit and the merchant demanded the
S35 due. Adler, it is asserted, replied
that he did not have the money with
him, but had it on deposit with the
Southern Trust company and tende6ed
a check for $35 and was given the
clothes.
When the check was presented for
payment, it is alleged. it was returned

Speculative Sentiment Both Watchful
and Discouraged Over Lapse Into
ldleness at Recoveries in
New York Exchange
tAssooiated Pressl

NEW YORK, Feb. S,-The stock mar
ket showed some relief today from the
stress of urgent liquidation which was
so conspicuous yesterday. There was a
wave of selling orders for execution
when the market opened which seemed
to be the aftermath of yesterdays pre-
cipitated decline in prices. The de-
cline had served to exhaust or dimin-
ish additional margins, and where the
calls sent out over night were not re-
sponded to the selling out of collateral
was the consequence.
The news of the market was of the
same nature as yesterday, that is, puz-
zled conjecture as to the source and the
motives of the selling. The course of
this conjecture tended to eliminate sup
positions of inside liquidation, such as
would be prompted by fears for the IN.
dustrial outlook or decline in prontS OF
enterprises.
The lapse into idleness at the reeov-
cries today kept the speculative senu-
ment watchful and somewhat discour-
aged. The opinion gained ground that
the markets weakness was due to be-
lated liquidation of large individual ac-
counts dating back to the period Of
price imitation last year, which had IN
judiciously overstayed the market, in
yiting measures of persuasion or IN

NEW YORK COTTON

special service to The Herald by J. c. Will
son, 2i2 West Fifth street, Los Angeles.
NEW YORK, Feb. S.-How professional the
recent cotton market has been is borne out by
the course Of prices today Influenced by the
desire to realize profits on yesterdays pur-
chases traders attempted from the opening OF
the market to unload, which caused first prices
TO fall away from 10 to 10 points for the near
options and IA points in October. Southern
receipts being somewhat larger than antici-
pated, and southern spot markets showing
slight recessions, cur market declined further
until tho total losses were "a points for May,
81 points for July and II points for October,
Around this level some short covering took
place, which caused a partial recovery. al
though the finals were materially under last
nights. Spot cotton in New York on light
sales declined 20 points to the l5-cent level.
