A GhOstly Thief

From the Baltimore American.
To begin WITH Mrs. Mary Sumlovitz,
who occupies the first floor fiat at 242
South Eden street, is not supersttious.
Just the same she is very sadly puzzled
and a little frightened, too, at. experiences
with which she has been troubled re-
Gently.
On Friday evening last Mrs. Sumlovitz
went to her bedroom a few minutes after
O'Clock and placed a new dress, which
she valued very highly, under her pillow.
Later she lay down for a short time, her
head resting on the pillow beneath which
was the dress
"As closed my eyes" she averred yes
terday afternoon, II felt something NOV
ing beneath me. Something was writh-
ing beneath my head-the clutchiIg. wrig-
CLING approach of a hand. Before l could
start up or shrek felt my dress, that
thought so much of, snatched violently
away. Yet there was no one else in the
room.
Too frightened TO scream then, Mrs.
Sumlovitz tore the pillow away There
was the impress of the dress in the boil
ster. but that was all. Nor was there any
evidence to show how the hand had
reached there or from whence it came
she Jumped from her bed and ran out
into the hall believing that someone there
had pulled the dress out. The hall was
empty She went out as far as the front
door, but no one was in sight. She then
called several of the other occupants of
the house and they started a search, All
the doors and windows were securely
fastened. No trace OF the dress could be
found in any part of the house.
Next she searched through her fiat and
learned that gold watch chain. a pair
of silver earrings andp gold locket and
chain were also gone
She then notified the police of the East
ein district and Patrolman James Horncr
was sent to the house. He also went
through the premises from top to bottom
hut nothing else was found disturbed.
Mrs. Sumlovtz is positive that no one
entered her roofn She Is also positive
that the missing articles were in their
places when she went into the room.

More Politeness for Toxic Police

T IUIII lTIt I1UHUUH IeIt5TdTITIs
Tokio-Since the appointment of Mr..
Anraku as the superintendent of the Met
ropolitan police bureau, instructions have
been given to the chiefs of the police sta
tions in the city in connection with the
better treatment of the public, in order
to prevent unnecessary Ill feeling on the
part of the people. The new superinten-
Gent has issued another instruction to
modify the language used by the police
to a more polite form. Hitherto the police
have been accustomed to use unrefined
language in the imperative mood. such as
"Oii oin' or "Koral kora!' which sig
Nifty, Hi, hi" or Here. here." These
utterances will be replaced with more po-
lite and gentle words, such as 'Mosni,
mcshi," or "IIalloo Please sr.''

Weekly Cotton Review

New Orleans. May 3.-Cotton was
fairly active this week. with trading
more two sided than 1t has been in
some time. Bears were aggressive. but
from the first of the week bull in-
terest seized every opportunity to drive
shorts to cover. The range of prices
was not wide, but a good volume Of
business was transacted
The week closed at net loss of 8
to 1S points. The high prices were
made on Monday and the low prices
on Wednesday. At the highest the
last weeks close, while at the lowest
they were 20 to 2s points under. The
range was 20 to 35 points.
On the whole, crop news was regard
ed as favorable this week. Dry weather
allowed planting to go ahead toward
completion and chopping out to make
good progress. Bulls made much of
low temperatures during the first half
of the week, but later tho weather
warmed up and temperatures were
about normal. Stories of replanting be-
Cause of cold nights were used with
some effect by the bulls to drive ner-
yous shorts to cover. Little was heard
of want of moisture and the rains in
Texas at the end-of the week with
promise that the rains would extend To
tie rest of the cotton region over Sum
day, were accepted as being certain to
prevent talk of drouth.
Neither side gained much from the
controversy over acreage Around the
middle of the week the bulls were
helped by private bureau estimates
showing an increase of from 2S pet.
cent to 81 per cent but a little later
the bears had the advantage from an
other report showing an increase of ;
per cent.
In the spot department prices lost
cne-sixteenth of a cent. middling clos
ing a. 121ac against 12 5-16c last week
and II 9-16c this week last year Sales
on the spot amounted to e3l4 bales
AGAINST 1910 last week and 1895 this
week last year. Sales TO arrive amount
ed to 1880 bales against 1903 last week
and 1870 this week last year.

The Main Question

Miss Italia Garibaldi, granddaughter Of
the famous "liberator," complained in
chicago about the way Italian women are
sweated there.
'When I see she said, ''the mascu-
line employer. with all his vaunted chiv-
air, to woman, taking such an unfair ad-
vantage Of his women employees, don't
wonder that woman is beginning to sneer
at mans chivalry
woman, very industrious and successful,
TO whom a young man offered himself in
matrimony.

asked.

The Financier. New York, says this
week
Preliminary estimates of gain of four
to five millions in cash this week were
rot borne out by the statement of the
condition made by the New York clear
ing house banks and instead there was a
decrease of S1,129,O00 The effect on the
banks reserves was offset. however. by a
decline of $195s,O00 in the deposit account,
which cut reserve requirements to a
point below the cash loss, resulting in a
nominal increase of $500 $50 in the excess
reserve, that item standing now at s15,-
955.650. The change in the loan item was
insignificant, showing a contraction Of
only S2i6000. The above figures are based
on the statement of actual condition. Ac-
cording to the statement of averages,
loans increased Sl2017000 and deposits
$9,1190O0. which with a trifling gain in
cash caused a reduction of 81 ,032, $50 in ex-
cess reserves. These figures probably
reflect the small amount OF financing
done in connection May / interest and
dividend payments. An increase of S26,-
52l ,1o0 in deposits is revealed in the state
ment of trust companies made independ-
emily of the clearing house which with
an expansion of 1925 900 in loans is OF
considerable interest as following last
weeks showing in which heavy increases
In the same items were reported.
