cured while his own was being repaired,
was missing. In the arrest of Frank
Young, colored. an iceman's helper, yes
terday by Policeman Joseph L. Far
mer, OF the Anacostia force, its disap-
pearance was cleared up. The police
man searched Youngh home, in STAN
ton road, after he had been locked up.
and the stolen watch was located in the
dwelling. 1t had been stolen when the
colored man put the block of ice in
Mr.. Hazel's refrigerator, as the time
piece was lying close at hand. Young
was released on depositing IS as col
lateral for his appearance in the Po-
lice Court.

the companies involved have stated
their side of the matter, no formal

auhharl Bros. X Co.'s Letter

New York, December 1S.-(Special.)- )-- AsYldenfy Europe regarded the improve meni OK Saturday as merely a change in local sentiment, and, therefore. did not follow our a6vance. Continental spin nefs gre v4iang to contract freely on any deciiaa but, after an advance of Sl CT go 4illts, they naturally wait fa sse waesher the movement is only tenpprary t it's character or not. Here lae open.na cline was recovered by an advance of 15 points from the lower price reached, on a combination of short covering and some improvement buying, to close some points lower than last evening.
 There is undoubtedly a change in the tone of general business, though they are now quite willing to admit that the change is a permanent one. We expect 100000 bales more will reach here for de- livery in December All shipments should be made as soon as possible, as any change in the weather might render deliv- cries difficult.
 Liverpool should be unchanged to a point higher.

ADVANCE IN PRICES
 AT BUENOS AYRES
Causes Wheat Shorts To Take Fright-Cl0se
 Nervous

Chicago, December 1S.-Wheat took fright today at sensational advance in prices at Buenos Ayres the result of in- cessant rains apparently putting an end to bright harvest prospects in the Argen- tine The close here was nervous at Sc to 1c advance over Saturday night. Corn made net gain of 51s@Ac to A@7sc, and oats shade to 1sQAc. Latest trade left hog products varying from 21sc decline to rise of nickel.
 Sentiment in wheat was bullish from the start. Cables from the Argentine told not only of much higher quotations and of delivery to the harvest, but also of the poor quality of crop in the northern provinces and of misgivings as to possi- bilities in the southern half of the re- public.
 A report that a boat of Manitoba wheat had been sold for shipment to Europe had further tendency to disconcert the bears Such factors helping to strong advancing market were only temporarily checked by decided gain in the United States visible supply total. Free selling near the close lead to a small decline. Be-
 
 tween the opening and the windup May ranged from 991sc to 100, closing at 9934c, an advance of cent net.
 Forecasts of unsettled weather hard ened the market. Moreover, there was an indisposition to put out short lines pending the issue of the government re- ports. Huge shipments from the north west attracted attention, but did not af- feet prices. May fluctuated from 64S@ 644c to 647sc, closing firm 5ls@&c up at 64a4@647sc. Cash grades were in scanty supply. No. yellow was quoted at 7lc for old.
 Oats derived a littlelstrength from other grains. Cash dealers sold futures on every advance. Upper and lower levels touched by the May delivery proved to be 491kc and 4sAc, with the close 1sc net higher at 4S7sc.
 Big exports of lard bolstered up the provision market despite heavy run of hogs, and notwithstanding the depressing effect of the recent action of the British government against American packers. At the end of the day pork showed gain of 2Isc to De and other products within 21sc either way from the figures of Saturday night.

SHARP ADVANCE IN THE COTTON MARKT Though Prices Based Off, Leaving Close Barely
 Steady

New York, December 1S.-Continued ac- tive covering and support from trade sources caused quite a sharp advance in the cotton market after lower opening today, but prices eased off again in the late trading and the close was barely steady, net points higher to points lower.
 The market opened steady at a decline of 4q7 points in response to relatively easy cables, reports that actual cotton was being offered more freely in the English market and private cables at tributing the decline abroad to conti- mental selling. Prices here almost imme- diately firmed up, however, on heavy buying attributed to large spot interests and renewal of the covering movement noted toward the end of last week.
 The south was a seller on the ad- vance, and there was local selling for turn, but offerings did not seem heavy enough to make much impression on prices until active months had shown net gain of from to 13 points. Then reports that spots were offered a little more freely in the interior were accom- panied by increased pressure, which in- cluded realizing by recent buyers for a turn and the market sold off sharply in the last half hour.
 December contracts were comparatively quiet all day and showed the minimum gain at the high point but were also relatively steady on the subsequent de- cline. Arrivals here from the south have been a little heavier of late, and while it Is believed there is still some scattering short interest in December, the commitments in that delivery are supposed to have been materially reduced during the active trading of last week. Some of the leading spot people were said to be talking bullishly on the mar ket today, on the ground that foreign spinners were showing a disposition to protect themselves out of this crop against remote requirements and that the south was holding it's spots above parity with active months in the local market. Reports of improved domestic trade may also have helped the advance during the middle of the day, in con- nection with predictions of continued heavy exports while the talk of freer spot offerings at the advance seemed the main factor in the late trading.
 Receipts today 62,6S2 against 70309 last week and 63,67S last year. Today's re- ceipts at New Orleans 1859 against 13 7s4 last year; at Galveston 15,964 against 1o.- 6lS last year, and at Houston 25,227 against 22,4S4 last year.
