FOREIGN UNREST
LOWERS COTTON
European Buyers Cancel Or
derS, Causing Heavy Selling
and Downward Trend.

NEW YORK, Oct 15.-An absence of
the expected frost overnight caused the
cotton market here to open barely steady
with first prices displaying irregularity,
being l point higher to points lower
than last nights close. During the first
hfteen minutes of trading the buying was
general, which seemed to come chiefly
from shorts and spot interests, but the
selling was liberal which held prices in
narrow ranges from the opening
Futures in Liverpool steady; spots
steady and in good demand.
A sudden realizing movement prevailed
over the market shortly after the call
on cables from Liverpool quoting a large
cancellation of orders in cotton goods for
turkey. This caused a heavy unloading
wave by the ring crowd and their manpu-
lauon in October was given its course,
ana within fifteen minutes this option had
receded some II points, while the remain
ing positions followed the downward
movement closely, aggregating a loss Of
10 10 points from the early range.
The weekly government report on
weather was very favorable and was an
addition to the bearish sentiments among
the room traders. The spot demand con-
tlnued good. while outside buying was
limited. The selling continued general
throughout the afternoon session, while
the buying as a whole seemed to be con-
tracted. with prices ranging about 10 to
II points from the previous close.
: At the close the market was weak with
prices net decline of Is to "A points from
the hnal quotations of Monday.

fact that America refused to follow the

bearish factor that would not be over

daring spectators put out short lies.

A New Back For an Old One How
1t Is Done in Wausau.

The back aches at times with dull,
indescribable feeling, making you
weary and restless; piercing pains
shoot across the region of the kid
neys, and again the loins are so lame,
to stoop is agony. No use to rub or
apply a plaster to the back in this
condition, You cannot reach the
cause. Exchange the bad back for a
new and stronger one. Follow the
example of this Wausau citizen:
Mrs. F. F. W. Hoppe, 3l9 Third
Ave, N, Wausau, Wis, says: "a
member of my family suffered from
kidney complaint. This person COM
planned of pain and stiffness in the
limbs and was also bothered by back
ache and sharp twinges in his sides.
Different medicines were tried but
not much benefit was received until
Doan's Kidney Pills were used. They
did such good work that the party
who took them gave a public state
ment in their favor That testimon-
ial has our confirmation at this time. +"

ELECTROCUTED
Fred Schroeder Found Dead on W,sdnes-
day Morning at Barker &
Stewards Mill.

Last Wednesday morning the body
OF Fred Schroeder was found by Fred
Beckman between pile of slabs and
The boiler house at the Barker g.
Stewart Lumber company's mills He
called other empl)yes of the mill
and upon examination it was found
the man was dead and E. E. Schulze,
coroner, was informed and physician
called. 1t seems that Beckman and
Schroeder we're firemen at the mill.
During the early part of the night
Schroeder was III rather respondent
mood. About l O'Clock a.. m,
Mr.. Beckman left Mr. Schroeder
alone, going to another part of the
building to attend to some work.
On his return Schroeder was nowhere
to be found; later he was found as
above stated. A jury was empanelled
consisting of Fred Dahn, Bruno
Nitsche, Julius Manthe, John Skar-
wiaki, Frank Burke and Henry Blum
enkamp and after going to the mill
and viewing the rem aims, an adjourn
ment was taken until later in the
morning when, after full considera-
tion of the case, a verdict was given
that deceased had come to his death
by electrocution. Everything pointed
to suicide. The testimony and the
conditions showed that Schroeder had
taken an iron poker from the boiler
room, gone outside and deliberately
wound it into a live electric wire,
over which there was voltage of
2200; he worked it until the insula-
tion from the wire was rubbed off and
then death must have been instantan-
eous. The hand with which he man.
ipulated the poker was badly burned.
The body was found directly under
the wire. In falling, cash was cut
upon his face, by stone.
Deceased was born in Watertown
on July Sd, 1872, and the following
are left to moarn his death: A wife
and one son Walter; a mother, Mrs.
VIM. Schroeder and the following
brothers and sisters: Otto Schroeder,
Wausau; Paul Schroeder, Mason; Will
liam and Ed. Schroeder, Athens; Mrs.
Anton Fleshly, Nebraska; Mrs. Adolph
Holub, Wausau; Mrs. Jacob Behling,
Lincoln, Maine.
The funeral services were held from
the home at 132 N. Sixth Ave, on
Saturday afternoon at 2 O'Clock.

III. III. Foster of Little Rock, Ark,
was In the city the past week. On
Thursday A. L. Kreutzer, G. G. Yaw-
key, anG Mr.. Foster went to Merrill
by auto. The Merrill Herald says in
reference to their visit:
In company with Mr.. Foster were
Hon. A. L. Kreutzer and Hon. c., G.
Yawkey of Wausau While the rest
of the party devoted theirs time to
business, Mr.. Kreutzer spent the time
with friends at the Lincoln relating
political "reminiscences. Mr.. Kreutzer
served eight years in the state senate
and maCle one of the ablest legislators
ever sent from northern Wisconsin.
His friends have frequently urged him
to become candidate for governor, but
for the past few years he has devoted
his time entirely to business. He is
president of the Wisconsin Valley
Trust company of Wausau, one of
the leading financial institutions of
the north part of the state.
As a result of the visit of these
gentlemen an informal dinner party
was gisSn at the Lincoln by Hon. L..
N. Anson. Among the diners were:
Messrs. l.. N. Anson, H. HI. Foster,
A. l.. Kreutzer, G. G. Yawkey, Geo.

Chas. Wiskow has moved his boot

Dan Scott has moved his head
quarters from Jenny to Wausau.
Mr.. Scott is giving us excellent stage
service between the two places.

B. w. James has let the contract
for a residence on the corner of
Franklin and Fifth streets.
Our enterprising druggist II. A.
Frost has been away on visit, but
the refrain of the old song, mo Place
Like Home" rang SO loudly in his
ears that he did not stay long.
Carpenters and masons are putting
the finishing touches on the McCros-

place will be alive with business.
John Linder has received the ap-
polntment to carry mail between
Marathon and this city. He will run
his stage twice week.
j. A. Cowan will soon occupy the
Casterline building on Third street
and move his furniture store thereto
from Jackson street.
Another hunting and fishing party
left Wausau few days since consist
ing of Clarence Wilson, VIM. Smith
and Bert Gowen, three of Wausau's
smartest boys-and SO far they have
proved that they are no band box
hunters. On the second day out they
stopped at Jenny, sold a fine deer
which they had killed, took in new
stock of supplies and went on up the
river, since which time we have not
heard from them. We expect when
they return they will be able to fur
nish material for an interesting story.
