When the fishing schooner Emma

voyage.
Stoddard and Darcy were on deck.
taking their turn at watch, when the
vessel was struck by an immense
wave. which swept the deck and
carried the two men into the sea. The
other members of the crew were be
low, but they heard the cry of one OF
the men as he was carried into the
sea. They rushed on deck and threw
ropes in the direction from which the
cry came, but in the darkness they
could not see the men and no trace OF
them could be found.
The aceident occurred about eco
miles off Pensacola light. and although
everything possible was done by the
captain and crew to save the men
their efforts were without success and
the Emma Jane came into port yes

New Orleans Futures

New Orleans, Jan. 11.-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance of 8 to IL
points on good cables and reports that
the Lancanshire mill lockout had been
settled. The reports could not be con-
hrmed but they made shorts nervous and
caused them to cover and also stimulated
fresh buying for long account. The weathe.
over the cotton region took another I'M
favorable turn which also helped the bull
side. At the end of the first half hour
OF business. prices were 8 to II points
over yesterdays close.
Shorts were heavy buyers around the
middle of the morning and the market
gossip said that several large lines were
being covered. Memphis traders wers
spoken of as the heaviest buyers Of the
day and ii was generally supposed that
these purchases were for short account
although some kilograms from that
market said that the bad weather was
stimulating buying for long account
Longs took profits continually in a mod
crate way but did not sell enough tC
cause q reaction. AT noon the trading
months were IA to 16 points over yester-
days close.

the market for a time. but the whole list

Speculative opinion was of a more
bearish cast today Traders on the long
side of the market failed to follow up
yesterdays advantage. Although the
market derived some temporary strength
from the bidding up of Lehigh Valley,
the erect was soon OFFSET by aggressive
bear selling. The attack was again CEN
tered on Union Pacific and the lack Of

sold stocks here, chiefly United States
Steel and Union Pacific. The market raj
lied feebly. became dull and dipped sharp

Canadian Pacific lost 2 3-S, Reading 2.

point or more. Western Union showed
pronounced strength. Bonds were easy.
Low prices invited short covering and
the rally was accelerated by evidence OF

favorites in tho recovery.
Isehigh Valley mounted to 1s5 3s or
within 1-s of the early high rices Read
ing and Union Pacific also recovered a
point each, but the industrials and spec
ialties Jagged considerably.
Speculation became quiet on the re-

clines were reduced mostly to fractional
proportions with the Recovery hating

SHREVEPORT DECLINES TO
ESTABLISH A QUARANTINE

Shreveport, La. Jan. 11.-By a vote
of to ? the Shreveport city board Of
health today declined to establish a
quarantine against the state OF Texas,
where several towns are suffering
from an outbreak of cerebro spinal
meningitis. The action was taken af-
ter statement made by DR.. Oscar
Bowling, president Of the Louisiana
state board Of health. in which he de-
clared the belief that such a quaran-
tine was unnecessary and would not
prove effective If established.
DR.. Bowling said his Investigations.
after conferences with the Rockefel~
Ter institute expert, showed that men,
nights cannot be traced to any par
tieular source and that so little is as
yet known regarding the disease that
to quarantine against It would DC
folly.

Yesterday Mr.. Wilson issued the fol-

Immediately after the withdrawal
of Judge Parkhin from the race for
congress in the Third congressional
district, 1 was urged by friends to
enter the race against the incumbent,
Dammit II. Mays. 1 have had the
matter under consideration for several
days. and my assurances of support
from throughout the district lead me
to the belief that I should enter the

cessful. have, therefore, determined
to enter the race and make a vigorous
and thorough campaign of the whole
district.
Il shall. at later date through the
press of the district. announce to the

policies and principles for which
stand
COT. FLouRNoY's STATEMENT.
Col w. ". Fiournoy, of DeFuniak,
errived in the city Wednesday night
from his home, where he had received
letters and kilograms asking him to
become candidate. He came to this
city to confer with some friends, and
afterwards issued the following state
nlent:
Since the announcement of Judge
Parkhill that he would not be a can

trict, I have had many solicitations
from all over the district for me to
become a candidate for this position,
and after thinking over the matter

thorized to state that 1 shall be in
the campaign for this important
Office
Col. F7ournoy is well known, not

others in West Florida. He is at pres
ent state senator, and his entry into

Realizing was very heavy at the initial

part rather q nervous appearance to the
market but there was no weakness.
A fresh squirt of bull support and cover
ing caused q renewed advance late in the
forenoon which carried the active months

sitions. Realizing again checked the up

The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-11-08
MRS. CLEVELAND'S FRANK.
Question Whether She Will Lose Her
Mailing Privilege.

Whether Mrs. Grover Cleveland
when she marries Professor Thomas
]. Preston of Wells college will lose
the privilege Of ''franking" all her
mails, a privilege that is customarily
granted all widows of former presi-
dents, was a question which the post
office department evaded with the dec
laration that they would not cross the
bridge until they came to it.
By special act Of congress several
years ago the department was au-
thOrized to accept as prepaid all mail
countersigned by Mrs. Cleveland, and
Instructions We're issued to postmas-
ters requiring them to recognize her
signature. If the franldng privilege
is continued new orders will have to
be issued instructing recognition Of a
new signature, when Mrs. Cleveland
becomes Mrs. Preston.
1t was the opinion of several law
yers that the only way Mrs. Cleveland
could lose her mailing frank was by
the repeal Of the statute granting her
