There is some one here whom I arn
sure you win all be glad to see. an,
sure that you will be glad to see your
assistant pastor"
With these words Doctor Kelly
stepped from the platform pulpit and
walked to where Mrs. Kelly was sit
ting among the members OF her class
He took her by the hand and led her
to the platform amid cheers and ap-
plause. As they stood smiling side by
side bowing to the great asser1bIage
the hand clapping grew more enthu-
siastic. In pantomime the wife's af-

showing that they had undertaken the
, trip clothed only in bathing suits. An
alarm was given late in the evening.
and, while every fishing boat and
steam craft in the harbor responded, it
is feared that they were too late and
that the boys have lost their lives
FISHERMEN TO RESCUE
The fishing feet was first put off
from the pier in the search. Later an
alarm was given to the naval reserves
and they quickly responded. Every
part of Monterey bay was searched, but
no sign Of either the boat or its crew
was discovered.
Inshore at this beach there is no
undertow. nor any currents. but at the
whstling buoy, two miles off the
beach. there is a strong current and
frequently choppy seas. While the
boys were good swimmers, they must
have been drawn out to sea while
rounding the buoy, their boat capsiz-
ing. The long swim to land apparent
y was too much for them.
The boat that the lads constructed
was is feet long and was known as
canvas collapsible canoe 1t was not
the sort of craft that could stand a
heavy sea.
WARNING Is NOT HEEDED
Notwithstanding the warning they
were given By the San Lorenzo bath
house guards, the boys threw off their
garments, put them in one of the lower
river bathhouses and started out in
their bathing suits for the trip. The
day was pleasant, but at sea consider
able wind was blowing. It is not GUS
tomary for any Of the small craft of
the harbor to venture out beyond the
q buoy unless they be the sturdy fisher
boats.
Last night is was reported that hsh-
ermen had seen the boys heading for
the buoy. but they did not believe that
the lads were going farther than few
hundred yards from the beach.
Search is now being made for the
bodies OF the youths. all of whom are
of well known families OF this city.

YOUNG COTTON Up IN
SOUTHERN LOUISIANA
M0rgan's Death Has Little
Effect on New Orleans
Market

New Orleans. March 31.-The cotton
market was quiet and easy today. with
prices showing a disposition to sag under
more favorable weather news from the
cotton region. A feature of the day was
the report that young cotton was up in
southern Louisiana. Bulls were not as
a aggressive as they were on the week end
and on the other hand. shorts were in
cliped to accept moderate profits because
of the fear of another upturn at the
slightest excuse similar to the upward
movement of last weeks. Fear of high
water in the Mississippi was always an
influence that checked free selling short
account.
On the opening the tone was steady and
prices We're to Z points under the close
OF Saturday. Cables were not as high
as due, and the weather map was ia
vorable, as only a few light rains were
shown along the Atlantic coast. The
death of Morgan had little or no influ-
enee on prices, although 1t was reported
in the early hours that Wall street was
a short seller of cotton in moderate
way. There was no local selling on this
feature. The forecast of fair weather
for the best part of the pelt stimulated
selling to some extent and the market
gradually eased off until 1t stood 10 to IL
points under Saturdays final figures.

NET GAIN OF NEARLY
ONE CENT IN WHEAT
Offerings of Corn From the
Country Light-Trade
in Oats Slow

Chicago, March 31.--A squeeze of
March wheat shorts in Liverpool caused
a furry todayS which sent the price
up there to about an equal of 1o1a and
was reflected here in a market which
made net gain of &c TO q a &c. Corn
closed net u @ 2sc to Il q sc higher,
oats 1s9Ac to 4 a IS up and provi-
sions ~ lower to 10c higher.
The strength given wheat by Liver
pool was aided by the rush of shorts
to buy. there being a board of trade
holiday tomorrow because of the NUM-
cipal election. There was no improve
ment in the demand for cash wheat,
total sales reported being put at 1o,-
600 bushels.
Primary receipts were $4,000 against
$4,000 bushels a year ago. Seaboard
olearances of wheat and flour equalled
772,00o.
Offerings OF corn from the country
We're light, good weather keeping the
farmers busy at home and interfering
with marketing. The east was not a
buyer but some firmness was given
the market on local trading. Trade in
oats was slow, but because of light
ness of offerings prices held steady.
Provisions showed some firmness al
though the hog receipts at the yards
were much larger than had been ex-
pected. Good buying of lard helped
strengthen the whole list.

DEATH HAS LITTLE
EFFECT ON MARKET
Reports of Morgan's C0ndi-
ton Had Prepared Mar
ket for Final End

New York, March 31.-The stock mar
ket was little disturbed by the death of
J. p. Morgan. The news from Rome
was the overshadowing feature of the day
in the financial district but its effect
was largely sentimental. Reports during
the last few weeks had prepared the street
for the news which came today, and it
was received an hour before the opening
of the market. thus giving ample time Tor
protective measures. 1t was assumed
from the outset that the market would be
kept we'll in hand, but the degree Of re-
sistance shown was surprising to traders.
The moderate decline of Americans in
London before the opening here gave a
fairly accurate estimate of the effect on
scurties of Mr. Morgans death. De-
elines of a point or less were general, but
before trading had been under way 10
minutes the list rallied strongly. Steel,
the chief Morgan stock, was fairly ac-
tive but it's decline was confined to a
point. BY the end of the first hour losses
were virtually made UP.
The higher level was not maintained,
however. the list going back to the low
point before noon. Tightening to call
money to the highest rate of the year
was depressing Influence. Governor Sui
zers approval of the full crew bill,
which is expected to Increase expenses OF
railroads in this state considerably, was
another factor. Prices rose again in the
afternoon but became dull. Call money
touched per cent, and it was reported
that Berlin was renewing its bids in this
market for money, offering 81 TO 8 per
cent for so day funds. Bonds Were ir-
regular.

UNUSUALLY BRISK
Fruit and Produce Especial
ly Active-Chicken
Prices Up

Morris avenue had an unusually
busy day yesterday. Business in all
lines was very brisk. Especially was
this so in the fruit and produce me
with fresh vegetables leading in de-
mand. The supply was plentiful and
prices very reasonable.
The demand for creamery products
was very good, prices about strong as
usual and the supply in keeping with
the demand. Poultry and eggs are hold
ing their own as far as prices are con-
cerned with a very good demand. There
was slight increase in the price of
frying size chickens and a decrease of
cent in candled eggs. As the hot
weather approaches eggs will be
handled in smaller lots and sold quick
y and prices will probably be about
the same as they are at the present
time.
1t was reported yesterday that the
flour and grain business had very
good business, prices remaining about
stationary.

DOG ORDINANCE MAY
Be ADOPTED TODAY

An ordinance requiring the owners of
dogs to pax a tax of So will be sub
mitted to the commission this afternoon.
The ordinance also provides that all dogs
must be registered with the city in a
record that is to be maintained for that
purpose. The ordinance provides the
usual metallic tag must be displayed fas
tened securely upon the collar of each
dog. The new ordinance is to be intro
duced by Mr.. Exum and will not carry
the s. per year license on female dogs
and the 50 upon male dogs as first init
mated.
The license on dogs heretofore has
been 81 per year. However the commits
sioners are inclined to think that the
h'gher Incense and strict enforcement OF
that license and accompanying ordinance
VIII serve to free Birmingham of so
many CANNES that are proving trouble

RATHER EASIER TONE
IN COTTON MARKET
Close Barely Steady, Last
Prices Showing Loss of
Z to 8 Points

New York. March s1.-Reports of more
favorable weather in the south gave the
cotton market rather an easier tone to-
day. and the close was barely steady with
last prices showing net loss of from Z
to points
The market opened steady at a decline
of l to points in response to disappoint-
ing Liverpool cables a better weather
map and realizing by some OF the last
weeks buyers. There still appeared 70
be some nervousness with reference to
March contracts, but remaining March
shorts were evidently able TO secure
cover at premium of from IS to 60 points
over May and after some little early ir-
regularity the market turned easier on
favorable weather predictions. Prices
worked off to net loss of between II and
12 points during the middle of the day,
but aggressive offerings were restricted
at this level by continued apprehensions
of floods in the Mississippi valley and re-
ports of continued steadiness in the south
ern spot markets.
Some of the earlier selling may have
been Inspired by fear that the death
of j. p. Morgan would have an unset
Ting effect in financial circles, but the
action of the stock market afforded no
ground for uneasiness in this respect and
this probably accounted for some of the
covering during the afternoon. AT any
rate prices rallied some points. This
was not fully maintained owing to re-
newed pressure in the late trading and
that Anri1 spOt commitments
were exceptionally small. The long range
weather forecast indicated higher tenn
peratures this week and normal rainfall
in the cotton belt.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, March 3i.-(SpeciaD--lt was
the opinion of trade before the opening
that the market would decline aftet the
interest in March had been closed. In
Liverpool ii was feared the death of Mr..
Morgan would adversely affect the
American markets. On these ideas there
was free selling all the morning with the
final close some six to eight points lower
than Saturday.
Arbitrage brokers bought May because
we were practically on a shipping basis
to Liverpool. 1t is very seldom that such
is the case.
Advises from Memphis anticipate the
river Will reach As feet at that point, in
which, case it Is very doubtful If the
levees will hold. Wall street was quite
certain of decline and sold freely.
