COTTON OPENS WITH REACT|0NARY TONE Closes Easy at 19 to 23
 Points Down BUYING VERY SLOW Bear Pressure and Lack of Aggres- sive Buying Weakens Market and
 Causes Decline-Legislati0n
 News Affects Prices
BUYING VERY SLOW

New York, February 15.-The cotton tone during today's early trading, but there was no aggressive buying and prices soon weakened, reaching new low ground for the movement under renewal of gen. eral liquidation and bear pressure. The close was easy at a net decline of 19G23 points. The market opened steady at unchanged prices to an advance of 8 points, which was a poor response to rel atively firm cables, and during the first few minutes worked 1 to 8 points net lower.
 This widening of the difference between New York and Liverpool had much to do with the undoing of old accounts. The market worked higher during the middle of the session. But demand did not broad en on the advance of 1411c for May, and as soon as smaller shorts had secured profits the market weakened again, be- coming almost demoralized during the late trading under active selling on stop loss orders. general liquidation and bear pressure. May contracts sold off to 13S3c,
 
 morning, and the close was at the lowest point of the day. There was nothing ap- parently In the way of fresh news to ex- plain the extreme weakness late in the day, but 1t seems that the threatened ad- verse legislation against future trading has materially unsettled sentiment, and the selling movement, based upon in creased estimates of the crop and the less optimistic view of requirements recently noted as result of the falling off in Lancashire trade. was encouraged today by reports of additional curtailment in Fall River and the continued heavy re- ceipts. Receipts at the ports today, 2s.072 bales, against 3s,OOs last week and g ,1OS last year. For the week. 10000 bales, against 177,173 last week and 1o4,592 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, 5311 bales, against 5294 last year. and at Houston, 1885, against 3152 last year.

The Bishop and the Pie

From the Detroit tree EreSS.
 M. Campanini, the great operatic con- ductor. praised mince pie at dinner In Chicago.
 T don't wonder" he said, "that your mince pie is indissolubly linked with your Christmas, for Christmas Is the best day of all and mince pie Is the best dish.
 But indigestible! hear on all sides tales told about the indigestibility of mince pie. Nevertheless keep on eating it. though the last tale I heard was very narrowing, indeed.
 'It was a tale about a dyspeptic bishop who spent Christmas week with a Chicago family There was, of course, mince pie for the Christmas dinner, and at first the tishop, on account of his dyspe psia, refused to take any but his hostess assured him that her mince pie was as digestible as stale bread, and so he succumbed.
 "He succumbed. He ate whole mince pie And the next morning he was so i'll that he could not conduct an early service for which he had pledged himself.
 "The bishop was very i'll indeed. He groaned and he tossed about the bed and the family brought hini hot water bottles, mustard plasters and all man ner of remedies.
 But nothing seemed to do any good. and his host, when he gave vent to an unusually loud series of groans, hur- ried into the room and said somewhat sarcastically:
 ".why, bishop. you are not afraid to die, are you?
 "The bishop, thinging of his minee pie and his missed service. answered
 "No. I'm not afraid to die, but I'm ashamed to-"

Tuna Cheese for Market

From Consul Wilbert L. Bonney, San
 Luis Potosi, Mexico.
 A shipment of five tons of tuna cheese from San Luis Potosi to San Antonio, Texas. on December 4, 1910, marks the first serious attempt to In troduce this article into the markets or the United States from this district. It is reliably reported that next season New York commission house will buy considerable quantities here for the New York market. The tuna cheese in- dustry has been of local importance from time immemorial, and San Luis Potosi has long been the great tuna market of Mexico. There Is a probabil- ity that this shipment will lead to the introduction of the article into the United States on commercial scale.
 The variety of tuna most favored for making cheese Is the tuna cardona iopuntia steptacantha), of beet red color with white spines, but the tuna pachona is also used. The cheese is made by simply boiling and straining the tuna pulp until the proper consis- tency Is reached. It is of a chocolate color, pleasant to the taste. wholesome and slightly laxative. Some times nuts or flavors are added and the product is more appetizing when taken with milk Various notifications would soon suggest themselves to dealers in the cities of the United States to improve the taste and render the product more attractive.

WHEAT MAKES
 NEW LOW RECORD Heavy Selling Based on Fears of Congress
 - GOOD CROP NEWS
Market Had Decided Nervous Tone Caused By Reports From Wash ington on Reciprocity and
 Anti-Option Bill

Chicago. February 15.-Wheat today made new low record for the season. Anti-option and reciprocity were twin bugaboos. A decidedly nervous tone pre- vailed at the close, which was ssc to 11sc under last night. Other grain suffered less severely, corn finishing at net decline of 1sdSsc to 5sc, and oats off A@&c to ss@Rc. Latest sales of hog products varied from 21c cheaper to a nickel ad- vance.
 Wheat dealers were much unsettled by reports that political trading might in- clude grain in the Scott anti-option bill to be voted on in Washington Friday Heavy selling was based on this fear. An idea that the Canadian reciprocity agree ment might go through the Senate almost as quickly as through the House proved equally discouraging to the bull side. Incidentally, good crop news came from the southwest, from Europe, from India, and there were offerings of new wheat by Australia and the Argentine. Fur thermore, domestic flour business ap- peared to be in bad condition, big north western mills doing little and small mills nothing. All these bearish factors showed most of their results in the last half of the day Earlier there had been spirited buying due to belief that a rally might be expected following the recent decline of mere than 10 cents. Notions, too, were current, which were afterward dispelled that reciprocity would not be permitted to come to a vote in the Senate. Pur- chasing power, however, seemed to ex- Eaust itself before noon. Thereafter big shorts and many longs took hand at selling and there was a rapid crumbling of prices. May ranged from 907sc to 927se, closing 1sc down at 913sc.
 Corn finally sagged with wheat and be- cause no improvement developed in the domestic or export demand here or east May varied between 4Sssc and 49Mc, with the close unsettled at 4s1aG4sssc. net loss of 1a45sc. Cash corn was easy. No. ? yellow finished at 461h@47c.
 Oats went to pieces under selling by owners who were hedging cash holdings hero or elsewhere. May fuctuated from 31hc to 32@321s and closed asc down at 31B@3119c.
 Provisions made only feeble response to higher prices for hogs. Grain weak ness encouraged short selling. In the end the market stood practically the same as 24 hours before

{ MISSOURI PACIFIC { WASLNE FEATURE Announcement of Gould Caused Slight Furry PIG IRON IMPROVES i. Passage of Canadian Reciprocity Measure Had Little Effect
 on Stock Market
 Yesterday
PIG IRON IMPROVES

New York, February 15.-Missouri Pa cfic was the dominant factor in speeu- lation or the stock exchange today. After feverish speculation in the stock dur ing which 1t advanced nearly points and then fell back almost as much, came upon the announcement that George J. Gould would relinquish the presidency and that representatives of the Kuhn Loeb-Standard Oil and German interests would enter the board at the annual meeting next month.
 Missouri Pacifics swift rise to 63 on heavy dealings soon after the opening unsettled the general market. The list grew steadier, however, on the reaction in Missouri Pacific and Reading closed to last nights level to the end of the session. Missouri Pacific itself sold off nearly a point on announcement of MT. Gould's coming retirement and closed with only fractional net gain.
 Passage of the Canadian reciprocity measure by the House of Representa- tives had little effect was shown by divers movements of stocks affected by 1t. International Paper preferred de- clined still further. The Hill stocks were in good demand and United States Rub- ber advanced sharply. Discount rates in London weakened today, owing largely to the increased supply of money to the payment of $15,000,000- for treasury bills and advices from that center pointed to expectation of a reduction in the Bank of England's rate tomorrow. Such a regula- tion doubtless would give impetus to the 1. buying of American securities abroad. Bonds and short-term notes authorized by leading corporations within a week, aggregating well up to s100,000,000, a large part of which is to be placed in foreign markets.
 :. A better tone in the pig iron market was reported from Pittsburg today, to- gether with an advance in price of cer- tain steel specifications, and one of the subsidiaries of the United States Steel corporation reported orders for 5000 tons of rails in the past week.
 While expectations of betterment in the 7 general industrial situation continue to be borne out in this direction, outward evidences of improvement elsewhere are less patent. From Fall River came the announcement that some of the cotton mills there would be placed on four-day schedule this week. Exports of merchant disc last week were more than S4,OO0, GOO below those of the previous opening
