Judge Chase and Governor Stone
declared that the petition for extra
ditiOn was insufficient in form and
unsupported by the necessary evil
dcnCe, and that the. state of New
York having through its courts de-
clared Thaw insane, could not now
request from New Hampshire his cX-
tradition for crime which by It's
nature only a sane man could com
nit. This crime was conspiracy to,
escape from tie Mattcawan insane,
asylum.
Judge Chase stated that criminal
intent WAS tn" essence Of crime
against criminal intent, insanity
was complete defense. Thaw took
the iifr Of ii man. he said, bat WAS
regarded as innocent Of the crimr

Tie real purpose of this proceed

Did you ever see Eddie Foy with

- Here they are just as they look
when they do stunts to make the
public laugh till it cries!
There is no mistake about this be-
ing Eddie Foy's very own company,
for these are his own childreni
The seven hddies and their popu-
lar dad have been appearing in some
of the smaller cities in the East in a
little sketch.
Did it take a long time to train
them? 81 should say not" says Faith

Eddie, who has been getting laughs
on the stage from grown-ups for a
long, long time, opens his entertain
ment by ushering in six of his boys
and girls. Then he disappears and
brings in a carpet bag. 1t flies open
and out walks Irving, the five-year-
old - Il
Then he says, ''I'm head salesman
in a glove house and I'm showing my
kids" After that the kids" line up
and each do funny little act of their
own. It's all laugh and it is just as
interesting for little folks as big folks.

New York, oct. 25.-There was . renewal

contracts selling at 407 or % points

The census report showing G.g56,5S3 bales

An unusually large percentage OF the total

New Orleans, Oct. &.-The cotton mar
tet stood ut an advance during the entire
week. The net result was an advance Of
A TO 53 poiuts. The high prices were
made on Wednesday and Saturday and
the low prices on Tuesday. At the highest
trading months were "a to 50 points over
last weeks close; at the lowest they were
% points over. The range OF prices was
81 to 81 points.
The market opened at the advance on the
damage done by the cold wave that was
gwecping the cotton region. In the early
part Of the week killing and heavy frosts
were reported over q large and important
part Of the belt and 1t was generally ac-
knowledged that extensive crop injury had
been done.
Rnlls claimed that the cold weather
made Il certain that this years crop could
be only q mall one. Shorts covered freely
throughout and fresh long buying made its
appearance on all breaks.
The census bureau report on ginning was
the cause Of much evening up. The figures
were IN line with average cx pectations.
Bulls advanced the claim that the crop
on October IS was 80 per cent or more
yinned. This claim undoubtedly broush h,
In considerable buying.
In the spot department prices advanced

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York, Oct. &.-The stock market 81
the week revealed a better balance between
the opposing spectators than for song
time past. Arguments derived from GOV,
eminent acts or. policies were given mos
force on the side Of recoveries In stocks,
while financial and trade considerations
still constituted a drag ON the advance.
Much capital was made Of the advance
In freight rates granted by the Interstate
Commerce Commission to the railroads in
the Missouri River territory. Some sweep
ing differences were drawn from the de
cision on account OF its possible bearing
on the wider question of the general ad-
vance in rates asked for by the eastern
railroads. Importance was attached 10
the stress laid by the commission in its
decision on the necessity for justifying
opposition to increased rates. On this &C.
count a more hopeful view was taken "
the prospects for success of the eastern
roads.
Reports from the steel trade also
brought into prominence the supposed
necessities OF the railroads for increased
compen sAtion in order to stimulate their
demands for material.
The United States 2 per cents were re
i1eved from depression by which they have
suffered and scored a smart recovery.
Domestic money conditions continued
reward greater ease with the approach Ok
the period Of satisfaction Of interior de
mAnds on the reserve centres.
Frost dam2ge to cotton aud tie Mexican
news were ~d1sqtrieting factors.
