trouble, the cotton market here opened
steady with prices a net gain of to 10
points higher than the final quotations of
TUESDAY News from the belt over the
holiday was of a bullish character.
. immediately after the opening heavy
liquldauon movement prevailed, coming
chiefly from the ring and longs taking
profit causing prices to make a quick de
cine of to IL points from the initial
quotations. However, offerings were alb
sorbed remarkably Well Shorts were the
chief absorbers. certain broker here
was credited with selling fully 10000 bales
of July at 1890 and t2.3lc. At the end
of half hour of trading prices regained
few points of the early drop on good
support from the leading bulls.
Further short selling, coupled with up
town, Wall Street and commission houses
realizing gave the market an easier
tone during the forenoon, selling being

Sentiment among the locals is bearish.
Bull leaders are advising purchases on
easy spots. The early decline seemed to
check the support from the larger spot

mess among the lOw-price men in sell
ing short, but offerings continue free and

BY c. w. STORM,

NEW YORK, Feb 13.-Canadian Pacific

ing of the stock market today, declining

clines We're sustained by a number OF
other stocks. The Mexican situation was
a contributing factor to the general heav-
mess. Among the other losses were
United States Steel Is, Amalgamated Cop
per g., Atchison Is, Union Pacific Ia q.
Sears, Roebuck IS, American Smelling Il
Southern Pacific |, Reading y and Lehigh

After half an hour some buying devel-
oped and some partial recoveries were
noted. Consolidated Gas. which sold ex-
dividend of IL. was 4 lower.
The curb was heavy
Americans in London we're hesitant
The tone in the late forenoon was ir-
regular. Traders attributed the heavy
selling of stocks to the unfaVorable de-
velopments in Mexico and the prospec-
tive tiremen's strike. Reading was promi-
nent, declining ia to 1879, and losses of
more than point We're recorded in
American Tobacco and Steel common.
Other declines were confined to frac-
tons
Partial recoveries ranging from Il to
y were made in a number of issues
in the last hour. Business was compare
lively quiet and the fractional advances
were chiefly due TO room traders who
had taken short positions earlier in the
day.

LONDON, Feb. 13.-There is to be
another garden party on a large scale
at Windsor castle in June next, the
Saturday before Ascot being regarded
as the most likely date. Not more than

can be entertained in comfort with
greater accuracy than was the case a
few years ago. so that there will be
none OF that crushing and overcrowd-
ing which characterized the first Of
these parties given during the reign of
King Edward.

CCoNEE's LIFE TERM CONvICTs
Cared for Ia Steel Cages, Saving En-
penSe OF Extra Guards.

Not few inquiries have been
made as to how the county is going
to care for the convicts recently OBJ
tanned from the State penitentiary.
In view Of the interest manifested in
the problem, the following statement
from Supervisor w. G. Foster is
quite to the point:
Editor Keowee Courier: Since
Oconee county has come into posses
sion of five life-term convicts and
several other long-term men, and the
cost Of a night guard would be at
least $40 per month, the County
Board has put into service two
tWelve-man portable steel convict
cages. These cages are safe, clean,
humane and comfortable. Each cage
weighs $500 pounds, and is mounted
on wheels and drawn by four mules
Each cage is fitted up, inside and
outside, with adjustable curtains
The convicts are turned loose inside
of these cages instead Of being
chained by the feet and guarded in
tents at night. Each cage will COM
fortably hold twelve men.
'"The two cages cost $1,025 COM
plete (delivered. We now have 10
convicts. Very truly,
'W. G. Foster, Supervisor"

PARDoNED BEFORE SERVES DAY
He Had Been Given Six Months OR
ASSauld Charge.

The Pee-Dee Daily Advocate (Ben-
nettsville) says:
Joe E. Hinson has been granted a
full pardon by Governor Blease be-
fore beginning to serve his sentence.
The facts in this case arc familiar
to the people Of Marlboro. Hinson
was charged, while rural police
man, with shooting Walter Pruitt,
beating e. p. Barber over the head
with pistol, punching o. B. Moye
and Mrs. Moye in the stomach with.
pistols while Mrs. Moye was in a del
icate condition, entering the Moyes
room and lying across their bed and
child in drunken stupor, befouling
their clothing and the room, cursing
and abusing Mrs. Barber, and other
outrageous conduct during o night
which he spent at the home Of r.. b.
Barber.
The County Supervisor employed
two firms Of attorneys and the coun-
ty paid them 500 each to defend
Hinson. His trial was put off from
time to time by his attorneys. After
waiting for several months for a
trial. Mr.. and Mrs. Moye returned to
their Georgia home.
Hinson was finally brought to trial
in March, 1913, for shooting Walter
Pruitt. After very strenuous fight
