Wall Street Traders Successful in Mild Bear Raid
NEW YORK STOCKS WEAK, EASIER
UNDER BEAR PRESSURE.
LIGHT TRADING.

All in all Ii doesn't look at all like
good week for business in stocks.
1t hasn't been lively for so long that
many traders are disgusted and will
limit operations to an occasional
scalp until the decisions do come
down. One Reading member express
ed the belief that they would not be
out of the way before the last week
of the spring term of the court.
Easy money aRd crop news are the
only favorable factors. Adjournment
and the sales of stocks by traders who
have become disgusted with inactivity
offset other favorable factors.
Whenever stocks are strong they will
probably be sold, and on breaks the
sellers will recover their stock or cover
their shorts. The narrow, Hfeless mar
ket will probably continue.

Of some of the insurgents who were
slain in Gen Stanley Williams daring
attack on Colonel Mayot's federals last
Saturday afternoon, was completed here
today.
Including Williams, who died in q
hospital at Calexico, General Salinas,
commanding the rebel forces here, bu-
ried thirty-four dead rebels with mill
tary honors.
1t was announced by Salinas that
Williams had succumbed to a terrible

ploding shell having torn away the en-
tire back Of the insurgent leaders head
OF the ninety-seven Americans under
Williams who made the daring attack
on Mayot's 500, only fifty survived the
conflict.
These escaped because Mayot failed
TO follow up his advantage after routing
the insurgents. Eleven of the other
forty-f1ve fed across the American bor-
der and are now held prisoners by the
United States military forces. The for
ty-four who fell wounded on the bat

Fined for Choking His
Wife, Hitting Officer

Charles Prevost's pugilistic procliv-
tiles cost him $25 in Police Court to-

tails of how he assaulted his wl1e

the dignity of the police force as per-
scnated by Sergeant Whalen. Besides
contributing. to the court fund, Pre-

Mrs. Provost told the court that she
came out of her parents home at $50

band. He caught up with her she says
and choked her, after he had quarrel

Personal Picnic
Is Sadly Interrupted

James Barnes, colored, regrets today
that he has an appetite. Also he re-
grets the impulse which made him stop
early this morning. while laden with
cakes, pies. and confections. to make
picnic grounds of a tree box at Seven
teenth street and New York avenue,
there to sit munching until big police
man happened along.
If he hadn't done this, James would
not be locked up charged with having
taken the groceries from the store OF
Harris & Brooks, 719 Twentieth street.
He had nothing to say when taken to
the station. He was too full for speech:
box when Policeman Mahan happened
along, but he continued stuffing the
cakes and pies into his mouth while the
guardian of the law stood by and watch
ed him.
awav with it, II the policeman had not
suddenly remembered that each fresh
mouthful destroyed some of the evil
dence. So he took James, his mouth
was ringed with crumbs, and locked
him uD.

Japanese War Stories
"Inspired," Is Growing
Belief At White House

The feeling is growing at the White
House that there are some powerful in
7uences behind the agitation involving
Japan in the Mexican situation. This
feeling was strongly reflected today by
Senator Stone of Missouri, member of
the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions, following a talk with the Pres
ident
Senator Stone Is convinced that Japan
is not involved in the movement OF
American troops to the border, that Il
is absurd 10 connect that country with
the militant course pursued by the Taft
Administration, and that there is strong
reason to believe that Japan is being
brought into the scare for Interior pur-
poses
"Unholy Purpose"
1T looks very much to me like some
body is agitating the Japanese matter
for some unholy purpose" said the Sen
ator at the White House today. II can
not see why the interests of that coun-
try should have been brought into the
Mexican situation, otherwise.
"ks is well known, there have been
persistent rumors of war between this
country and Japan for years. They were
circulated apparently to encourage the
maintenance of strong naval policy.
that the present talk Of connecting
Japan with the Mexican troubles was
inspired from the same powerful sources
as the war talk in the past"
Just how far the President goes In
sharing the Senator's views with re-
gard to this view, is not known. 1t
is known that the Senator came
straight from the Presidents office
and discussed the possibility that Jap
an was being used again to foster a
sentiment in favor of stronger arma-
ment for this country.
Japan Not Mentioned"
Senator Stone followed Senators Ba-
con and Burton in declaring that he
had seen all the correspondence in
possession of the President and that
he had failed to find Japan mentioned
In 1t except in one instance.
That was in the case of an American
newspaper article in which Japan was
mentioned and which had been reprint
ed in japanese paper. No other men,
ton of Japan appeared. the Senator
o8id today
It came to light during the Stone in
terview, however, that the reports the
President had received on the Mexican
troubles had not all come from the
army and navy. Many of these reports
came from officers of the Government
working under the Treasury, Interior,
and Commerce and Labor Departments,
Agents from these departments were
at work making investigations along
with the army and navy officers. and
the representatives of the Department
of State.

Large Decrease in Exports.
An interesting Illustration Of the
manner in which foreign countries
nave suffered during the past year
from the short supply Of American cot
ton Is presented BY the statistics Of ex-
ports. which. for the year covered by
tho present report, show decrease OF
2.234 1896 bales. or 26 per cent. from
the previous year. smaller than for any
year skce that ending August 81 1905,
About 81 per cent OF all the cotton
exported during the year ending
August 81. 1910 is credited to ports
within the cottou-grawing states, only
Ii6 per cent having been exported from
ipons outside Of these statos. The ex-
ports from Galveston. New Orleans,
land Savannah represented about two
Ithinds of the total, while those from
lGalycston alone amounted to more
THAN one-third
The report also discloses a notice
liable change in the distribution of the
export trade since 1880. At that time
1.-THE United Kingdom took two-thirds OF
IalI the American cotton exported
France one-tenth, and Germany one
twelfth; but during the year ending
August 81, 1910. the United Kingdom
took about two-fifths. Germany nearly
one-third, and France nearly one-sey
enth. The export to Italy since 1885,
have increased more than skiold.
!. In Japan And China.
The exports to Japan are interest
r ing more because Of the remarkable
variations in the quantities for tn
4 different years than because Of the dc
velopment of the trade. This may b
g Explained by the fact that when tn
G lprlce of American cotton Is compare
r lively high Japan reduces its import
| Iof raw material from the Unite
l. States and increases its imports of II
ldian cotton. The exports to Canad
in 1880 amounted to only 1863 bale
compared with t2O.7i4 bales in 1911
