New Orleans Cotton Market

New orleans, June 12.--Cotton futures opened steady at an advance of to s points on good cables. A favorable weather map held buying down in the early trading, but the market had very steady tone and tendency to work high CT. The weather forecast in the south was as favorable as the map. although shorts displayed some nervousness over the continued storm warnings for the gulf coast
 At the end of the first half hour prices were 10 to 12 points up. Buying was chiefly for long account. Offerings were scanty.
 Leading operators were heavy buyers during the forenoon. Gossip mentioned Liverpool as a heavy purchaser at the same time. The list maintained a firm iindertone and late in the forenoon ses- sion stop loss orders commenced to be reached on the short side, which increased the demand for switching. Crop accounts continued of the most favorable nature, but no attention was paid to them. At all times the demand was more than the concentrated ring could supply. The de- mand, however, could not be called gen. eral except at times
 At midday prices were 15 to IT points up
 Steadiness developed in the afternoon Half an hour before the close prices were ? points above the opening figures.

Hubbard Bros. < Co.'s Letter

Now York June 13.-(Special.) )-I1iver- pool surprised the trade by advancing this morning in face of the lower markets yes- terday and the continued good weather for the growing crop
 Our cables state that the advance is due to the buying of July and August and the sale of January and February in Liverpool by some large local operators. As it Is well known the arbitration awards on cotton rendered on contract delivery ill Liverpool have been for some time very much against the deliverer, so we see the near months easily advanced be- cause importers do not wish to deliver under such conditions. With a million bales in Liverpool this strange condition is due to the difficulty of obtaining ade- quate results on delivery according to their system of commercial values.
 Here our market has followed Liverpool buying, supposed to be for a Wall street trader which was the main feature out side of the general belief that the present good weather will some time change for the worse and when it does that the mar ket will advance further.
 Liverpool is due to come about 1 point higher in the morning.

CLOSE FIRM AT NET
 ADVANCE IN WHEAT
Corn Scores Gain of Nearly a Cent-2K to 5 Cent In-
 crease in Provisions

Chicago, June 12.--Wheat today worked steadily upward. influenced to some ex- tent by statements that supplies in France had become almost exhausted. The close was firm at ss@isc to ssc net advance. Corn scored gain of ssQ1sc to 4sGalc and oats rise of 1sc to l4Q9se. The outcome in provisions was elkq5c increase.
 Good support on weak spots helped lift wheat Bulls took heart from improved cash demand here. the lightness of pri- mary receipts and because of decreased stocks at Minneapolis.
 Notwithstanding word that new wheat cut in Oklahoma was yielding 15 to 25 bushels an acre. shorts were active buy CTS in the closing hour. Between the opening and the wind up the September option ranged from $i.o45sQ1.O5 to s1.05si with last sales s1.o5ssa1.o5al. a climb of 1sdlssc over last night.
 Corn developed strength owing to spec ulative buying based on a theory that re- ciepts would drop off soon. July fiuc- tuated from 7Sssc to 74ssc, closing firm, ssG%c up. at 74hQ74asc. Cash grades were steady. No. ? yellow was quoted at 76@ 761sc.
 Tn oats purcnaslng TOT interests that have been at similar tactics now for a week had bullish effect. July which was chiefly bought in this way, swung from 4924c to 50Ae, with the close A42sc net higher at 50ssc.
 After liberal receipts of hogs had made provisions easy, commission buying set in and reversed the course of prices, trade on the whole. however, was light. Pork closed t211D115c dearer, the rest of the list 5c to 7ikc

CANADIAN PACIFIC
 D|SPLAYSSTRENGTH
For Dullness Yesterdays Market Has Seldom Been
 Equalled This Year

New York, June 12.-For absolute dull ness and insignifcance of operations, to- days stock market has seldom been equalled this year. Most of the active issues and other speculative favorites gained fractionally. The limit of apathy was reached in the final hour. Canadian Pacific was virtually the only high class stock to display marked strength. In the industrial group Amalgamated Copper Tennessee Copper. American Can com mon and preferred, Bethlehem Steel, American Beet Sugar and several of the less important issues rose from l to 2 points. while Colorado Fuel which early in the day added to yesterdays gain, later fell back.
 Sentiment on the board was perhaps less pessimistic than on the preceding day. but a majority of the traders seemed in disposed to take on new commitments pending the outcome of the money trust inquiry and more definite crop advices.
 London's part in this market was trihing Money conditions at home were marked by greater firmness with slight advance in all accommodations ranging from four to nine months, the rate for the latter period going to A per cent.
 The bond market was irregular and nar- row, keeping pace with the movement in stocks. Total sales, par value, were $l,7so,- eco.
 United States government bonds were unchanged on call.

The Photo Play As An Occupation

[ Tofn tle lIduleH w Oitu.
 There is a change going on in the mimic world The small town devotee of melodrama who used to watch the billboards in eager anxiety for flaming accounts heralding the next show in town now finds these same billboards void of excitement
 The moving picture theatre has taken the place of the low-priced road show. When 10 cents will give an audience an interesting story with an attractive set ting of mountains, lakes and floating skies, Missouri Nell'' at the town hail a block away. which asks an admission of 25 cents. will have to play to an empty house. The actress who a few years ago would have considered 1t degrading to pose for moving picture now sees that, unless she is a great star" the advan- tages of picture work are far and above those in the corresponding profession.
 At first, in order to try her out, the film companies will put her upon their list of available people and take her address and telephone number. If she has had little dramatic experience they will have her take part in mob scenes until they can see her features photo- graphed and ascertain if they can trust her with something more difficult. The director" who stands in the relation of stage manager in theatrical troupe, may find in talking with her that her diction is without a flaw and hire her, only to find that her acting before the camera is stiff. She may be the sort of an actress who does miserably in re- hearsal and rises to heights supreme when there is music. a glow of light an dthe inspiration of an audience be- fore her. Tn picture work she must be so inspire with her theme and really feel the part so thoroughly that she can go through 1t at moments notice. Her facial expression and movements carry the whole idea to the audience Then. too. she must learn to move very slowly and deliberately or the actions on the screen will be blurred.

A Unioue Method of pueIing

From the London Daily Chronicle.
 The Albanians use to practice a form of dueling well nigh as fatal as that ad- vocated by Sid Charles Napier. Sir Rich ard Burton, who once commanded a corps of Bashi- -Bazouks. writes that "the Al banian contingent, who generally fight when they are drunk, had a peculiar style of monomachy.
 The principals, attended by their sec onds and by all their friends. stood close opposite. each holding e cooked pistol in their right hand and q glass of rali, or spirits of wine. in their left. The first to drain his draught had the right to fire and generally blazed away with fatal effect.
