srhr.s Sheets In the Wind

"what was the origin of the phrase
for drunkenness, three sheets in the
windr" a landsman asked sailor the
other day. "Well." said the sailor,
"I'ii explain that matter to you. The
two lower corners Of ships sail are
held taut by two ropes, one called a
tack and another called a sheet The
tack is always kept very tight. but
the sheet Is loosened according to the
wind, and the looser the sheet Is the
more freely the sail swings. II the
sail Is quite free its sheet Is said to
be in the wind Now. suppose that
all three of ships sails were quite
free. They would then ny about very
crazily, and the ship would wabble.
The course of the ship would be zig.
gag one. and the reason for this would
be that she had three sheets In the
wind That, guess, is why man
when he xigzags In his course Is said
to be three sheets in tho wind ALSO"

SUBSTANTIAL GAIN IN PRICE OF WHEAT
Reports of Black Rust in Dakota Fields Brings a
 Substantial Gain

Chicago, July 2s.-Assertions that black and Minnesota had cut down the probable yield there to barely 1000OOO00 bushels, brought about today a substantial ad- vance in the market price. Latest trades were 1h@11ac higher than last night Corn closed a shade off 10 1sc up. Oats with a gain of 1zQ1c and provisions more expensive from to 3lac.
 The rise here in the cost of wheat, though stiff, did not more than half equal the added charges imposed at centers much nearer to the afflicted regions. Minneapolis, for example, put the price level up an even cents bushel Opin- ions were freely expressed that the rust was going north as fast as it could travel and had already infested two whole coun- tries bordering the Dakota side of the American side of the Canadian line. The harvest. Saskatchewan, in British ter ritory. was officially acknowledged to be stricken, but it was stated not yet to an alarming extent. One South Dakota report said that the commonwealth would rot ship out a pound of wheat and would have to be supplied with seed next spring. Simultaneously there was dsquietng news regarding the Morocco crisis, but that and all other influences went into the background to give place to tidings of any sort regarding black rust Be- tween the opening and the close Sep tember ranged from SSs4c to 90ss69Oatc, with the final tone steady 11ac net higher at 90izc.
 Rains in Illinois and through parts of Kansas, Missouri and Iowa led to rela- tive weakness in the market for corn. Besides the bulge at Buenos Ayers gave duty would be removed. September va ried from 6314c to 641sc and closed weak, a shade net lower at 63ssc Cash grades were in good demand; No ? yellow fin- ished at 63ssG64c.
 Persistent commission buying took a good deal of oats off the market and made the feeling in the trade firm. Much of the impetus came from the strength of wheat. eIigh and low points for Sep tember were 419sc and 40a4c with the close h@3sc up at f@H1sc.

Cotton Receipts
New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, July 2S.-Cotton 1utures opened steady at a decline of to points. Cables were slightly lower than due and some little liquidation from the long side was in evidence. Shorts were the best buyers in the early trad ing and their purchases were heavy enough to cause a small reaction. First prices weM the lowest up to the end of the first half hour of business. At the end of that time the new crop months were 1 to 2 points over yes terday's close. The old crops were neg lected. The weather map was dry aud was called very favorable, but litde trading was based on it. The attention of the trade was centered on the po- litical situation in Europe.
 Toward the middle of the morning selling orders increased until the ring was roaring with business. Prices gave ground fast under the pressure. not hes itating until October was selling around 11O5c. Here rohttaking by shorts was heavy for a time, but sufficient cotton was offered to more than supply the demand and finally there was break which carried both October and Decem- Der through the 11-cent level and down to 10.97c. January landed at lie. on this decline reactfonists lfquidated con siderable cotton. Profit t-taking by shorts became general and the demand from this direction finally became more than the ring could supply, with the result the market reacted. At noon prices were to 16 points up from the lowest, but still to 10 points from yesterdays close. At the lowest of the morning the active months were IT to 21 points under yesterdays last quota tions
 In the afternoon session the market was quiet and steady. Prices did not show much change. At 2 o'clock .he trading months were ' to IS points under yesterdays. close, August being the weakest month.

COTTON IS GOING DOWN, DOWN, DOWN
Sensational Breaks Con- tinue and the New Crop
 Reaches 11-Cent Level

New York, July 2S.-There was still a sensational break in the cotton mar ket today with all months making new low records for the season as result of liquidation by recent buyers for reaction, including, it seemed, some of the stronger interests and with new crop positions reaching practically the II cent level. The close was several points up from the lowest on covering and steady at net advance of IT points on July, which was influenced by the stopping of a few notices by one of the bull interests and covering by be1ated shorts while other months were from 10 to 1e points not lower. The market opened barely steady at an advance of points on July, de- cline of IS points on August and from to points lower on new crop posi- tions owing to easier cables, less favorable view of European politics and reports of continued anxiety regarding
 the outlook for food grains In that country. At first offerings were not heavy and there was some covering due | to the failure of few July notices to
 
 | the old crop months, but after rally of or points from the opening fig ures, selling became active and gen. eral. It looked as though recent buy CTS for a reaction, discouraged by un- favorable foreign news the continued selling of the south suggesting poth favorable crop progress and willing ness to sell early receipts at still lower level, and the increasing new crop movement, had abandoned all hope of an immediate rally and were throwing over their cotton regardless ot prices. At any rate October and December broke from 1130c to 11.0Sc and Jan cline of 22@24 points. The old crop meanwhile, after having made new low records on call, was relatively quiet and steady, and covering or trade buy ing checked the new crop break dur ing the early afternoon when there was fresh buying for rally and re- covery of 15 or 16 points from the low est. There seemed to be a good deal of cotton for sale above 11.2oc for the active new crop months. and the close was not far from that level. Week. end figures were bullish, but attracted little attention
 Receipts today were 4059 bales against 926 last week and 1752 last year Todays receipts at New Or leans were 2402 bales against 413 last year. and at Houston, 442 bales. against 1SS last year
