New York Stock Market.

Wall St, New York, May 6.-STOCkS-
Opening quotations in the stock market
today showed few variations of import
ance from the close yesterday. The widest
change was in Canadian Pacific which
lost g. Variations in other stocks were
almost equally divided between small
gains and small losses.
The market adopted a generally declin-
ing tendency with considerable pressure
against the coal stocks. United States
Rubber opened 3A down on liquidation in
spired by the unfavorable annual report.
Canadian Pacific lost ~, c and o. IL and
Lehigh Valley l.
The market closed steady. Trading in
the final hour was even more prefunctory
until shortly before the close when a
moderate covering movement was effec-
tive in restoring practically all losses in
the active group.
Especial strength was shown by West
ern Maryland and Northern Pacific, the
former advancing 21a points.

CALL KIDNAPPING JOKE.
Lawrence Police Say Miss BOttiger Is
Victim of Prank

Lawrence, Kan, May 6.-That the
attempts to kidnap Miss Florence Bot
tiger were student pranks is the belief
of the Lawrence police. This is. of
course, the easiest point of view for
the police to take, as it absolves them
from finding and Furnishing anyone.
Miss Bottiger told the landlady of the
boarding house where she takes her
meals here that after the attacks the
police had offered to protect her every
time she went out at night. Thev
deny this, however.
