Good Riddance

From Pearson'S Weekly.
OF Lord Rosebery, who recently presid-
ed at the Press club dinner. very anus
ing newspaper story is told.
1t is connected with a great speech he
delivered in a Scottish city one evening
Immediately before leaving for London.
One of the journalists sent to report the
speech had had very busy day, and he
was dead tired by the time he got back
to the office with his shorthand notes OF
his lordshp's speech The office boy
obligingly offered to take the speech
down on a typeXriter If the reporter
would dictate it from his notes, and this
offer the reporter thankfully accepted.
AS it was very long speech both re-
porter and office boy were quite done up
by the time they had got it all typed
ready for the compostors, and when the
reporter had dictated the last words OF
his notes he uttered a pisus exclama-
ton of thankful relief:
THANK heayen!'
Unfortunately the office boy, himself
half asleep, automa tically typed the addi-
ton. The copy was rushed through to
the compositors. set up, hastily read, ana
sent to press. The consequence was that
on the following morning the speech ap-
peared In print with the startling note at
the end: AT the conclusion of the meet
ing Lord Rosebery left for the south.

Wheat traders who have recently been
ignoring cables were confronted today by
reports that consols had been disturbed
by demands for 100000 900 indemnity to
the opponents Of Turkey. The security
market on this side was also said to
reflect fear of serious European troubles
'Rull spectators here were not slow to
apply the news to the wheat situation
and urge that export demand would be
stimulated even if anxiety should late
prove unfounded.
Rain interference with the Kansas har-
vest and lack of moisture for growing
grain in South Dakota were sufficient
additional incentives for big houses to
take all wheat offerings. Brief dip in
prices at the opening formed the only
exception to bullish control
Export elearances of wheat and -four
today equaled $4,000 bushels. Primary
receipts of wheat were 5000 bushels,
year ago $4,000 bushels.
Corn weakened on account of the
breaking of the drouth in a large part
of Illinois. Traders were cautious, how
ever, about pressing the selling side un-
til the final extent of the rainfall became
known. Wetting of important sections
heretofore dry eased oats.
Steadiness in the hog market held pro-
NIT nd

COTTON MARKET
UNDER PRESSURE
Close Firm at Net Loss
of 9 to u
Points

New Orleans, June H.-rhe cotton mar
ket was under consideration pressure to-
day, the gossip of the floor being that
professional traders were sellers in an
effort, which was fairly successful, to
bring about week end reaction after =
week of bull trading. In the early part
of the session the market was fairly
steady, but later it gave way sharply.
but at that fluctuations were within
rather narrow limits.
The opening was steady at a decline of
to points on poor cables and a good
weather map. In the early trading prices
went to points down under favorable
crop accounts and kilograms from Texas
predicting first bales at several points at
dates ranging from July l to 20. Bears
claimed that this was conclusive proof
that the crop is not as late as the bull
element has been contending. A moder-
ate amount of fresh long buying came
in and prices recovered to within 1 to
points of yesterdays close. Around the
middle of the morning heavy selling made
its appearance, and the market broke to
level to IA points under the final fig-
ures of yesterday. The close was firm at
net loss of 8 to u points,
The weather map was warm and dry.
except for a few showers widely scat
tered over the belt. The forecast prom
ised little change in weather conditions
over Sunday except that the indications
were for increased precipitation in the
western belt. Bears pointed out that there
was a chance that the drouthy conditions
in Arkansas would be relieved.

TRADING MUCH MORE
ACTIVE THAN USUAL
Renewed Selling Due to Re-
fusal of Commission to
Reopen Rate Case

New York. June 21.-Quotations were
scaled down generally today under an
outburst of selling, which Vim some cases
forced stocks nearly to the low levels
touched in the severe breaks of last week.
Trading was much more active than on
recent days, and the market was unset
tied throughout the two hours session.
The chief cause of renewed selling was
the refusal of the interstate commerce
commission to reopen the freight rates
case on the petition of the eastern roads
for s per cen. advance While the action
of the commission was modified by the
statement that it would conduct an in
quiry on its own account into the matter
disturbing influence.
The markets burden was increased by
a decline of American securities in Lon
don before the opening here, and evil
dences of further unsettlement of the for
eign markets. In London consols fell to
new low record and the cables brought
reports of serious conditions in the Bal
kans.
Bear traders made the most of these
conditions, attacking the whole list at the
opening. Such stocks as Union Pacific,
Northern Pacific, Reading, Steel, Anal
gamated and Smelling broke to points.
Steel dropped to SOS, within point of
last weeks low, and the preferred at
1021s, equalled it's previous low. Amalga-
mated came within fraction of it's recent
bottom figure. Trading grew auieter to-
ward the close
known movements of currency during
the week had pointed to a large gain in
cash by the banks, so that todays state
ment showing an increase of s6,S0o,00 in
actual holdings was in line with expec-
tations. The banks continued to pile up
reserves, adding nearly S5,ooo,0o0 to the
surplus.

Weekly Cotton Review

New Orleans. June 21.-The price of cot

entire week The net change for the
week was an advance of 10 to II points
The high prices were made ON Tuesday
and the low prices on Monday. AT tho
highest the trading months were % to
3S points over. The range was rs to 81
points.
Bearish news was almost wholly ig
nored this week Favorable crop ac-
counts and weather news, lighter depot
sales in the English market and less op-
timistic advices from the Manchester
goods and yarn market and predictions
that the first bale of new cotton in
Texas would be ginned around the first Of
July at the latest did not weigh against
values The operations in the July posi-
ton made shorts nervous, caused more
or less covering Of short cotton and re-
suited in intensifying the effect of all
bUllish influences.
Bulls made much of the quiet spot de-
mand on this side, which swept nearly all
offerings at good prices. and also played
up the quiet but large trading in dry
goods at centers in this country. The
chief weapon of the long side, however.
was the threatened squeeze in July. All
sorts OF gossip concerning the inAntion
of holders of long July contracts were
circulated and caused buying for both
accounts. At the close of the week the
bears contended that. technically, the

COTTON MARKET
LOWER YESTERDAY
Close Is Steady and at a Net
Loss of From IL to 81
Points

New York June a.lThe cotton market
was lower today under heavy realizing
by old longs and scattered selling which
was encouraged by the appearance of
the weather map and rumors that bull
ish interests were taking profits on every
favorable opportunity. The close was
steady at a net loss of from II to 81
points
The market opened steady at a decline
of to points and sold 10 to IS points net
lower during the early trading in re-
sponse to relatively easy Liverpool cables,
favorable weekly crop reviews, and in
over the week end. Renewed covering
by July shorts checked the decline and
the near month rallied about 6 points
from the lowest during the middle of
the morning, but new crop positions
showed little improvement, and as soon
as moderate demand from old crop
shorts had been supplied, the entire list
again weakened Selling was active later
and the close was at the lowest level of
the day. Memphis was credited with
buying considerable cotton here during
the early trading, and there was also
some scattered demand from other south
erE sources. including New Orleans,
which was attributed to covering of
shorts but European and local longs
were heavy sellers and the decline seemed
to inspire some fresh selling for a turn
on the short side. According to esti-
mates circulating here this morning, the
European long interest in local contracts
has been reduced by at least 500, 900 bales
during the past two weeks as a result
OF realizing. Private cables reported con-
tinued continental realizing in the Liver
pool market this morning and the sales
there We're probably absorbed on the
moderate break buying on the short end
of straddles, the long end Of which had
been hquidated here yesterday afternoon.
Reviews of the dry goods trade showed
no important changes, and Fall River
mills are said to be pretty well sold UP
for July and August delivery.

says that the official regulations for war
correspondents who were sent out to the
Balkans recently were appallingly Sc

Mr.. Gibbs found that he was forbidden
to describe the disposition of troops, to
give the names of generals, the names
and numbers of the wounded, the sue
cess or failure of Bulgarian troops, the
state of the soldiers health, the condi-
tions of the climate, and so on. When the
censors had told him all this, Mr.. Gibbs
asked him politely:
.'Will you tell me, sir, If there Is any
thing about which we shall be allowed

The censor thought deeply for a mo-

tically, II may also be permitted to de-

No Doubt About 1t

From Pearson w eekly.
Recently one heard an amusing story
connected with DR.. Chavasse, the Bishop
of Liverpool
DR.. Chavasse is, as most people know,
the father of two sets of twins, and soon
a fter Mrs Chavasse had had twins for
the second time a curate from neghbor-
ing parish was asked to preach the Sum
dav morning sermon in DR.. Chavasse' $
church. BY an extraordinary coincidence
he chose as his text the words: Two are
better than one.
quite audible giggle came from one
or two members of the congregation. and
ouite ignorant of the cause of his hear
ers' amusement, the curate gazed at them
in shocked surprise. Then. fearing that
there might be something amiss with his
surplice he tried to examine himself.
Finding nothing amiss he looked sternly
al the congregation and repeated his text
in a loud clear voice:
1.-TWO are better than one,'
AS he now seemed to be calling atten-
finn to his little joke. the entire congre-
cation oiuvered with suppressed mirth.

fairly high and while no great amount
of rain fell, the scattered showers were
sufficient to prevent drouth talk, ex-
cept in Arkansas, which claimed to need
moisture very badly. The gist of crop
accounts was that the plant, while small,
was healthy and making good growth.
Good stands were generally reported and
flelds were said to be clean and unusually
well worked for this time of the year.
Over part of the belt, fields were con-
sidered to be 100 per cent clean. While
the bulls admitted the truth of some of
the bear claims they pointed out that the
crop was still late.
In the spot market prices advanced a
of a cent, middlng closing at IL 9-16c

New York, June 21.-The cotton mar
ket has been active and firm during the
past week with prices making new
hlgh ground on covering of short and
bull support Realizing by old longs,
particularly by houses with European
connections, which were reported heavy
buyers here around the 11-cent level
advance in check but the action of the
market has suggested the development
or considerable bullish sentiment in
local circles and prices at the close
OF the week We're within few points
of the best.
Judging from the talk around the
ring the upward movement has not re-
fiected any particular change in SEN
timent as to prevailing new crop con-
d1t1ons, but somewhat more favorable
view of the financial outlook combined
with the apparent strength of the old
crop remnant and the continued active
mill consumption contrasted with a
light into-sight movement has undoubt-
edly made a considerable impression on
the market A private crop report is
sued early in the week showed an ap-
parent deterioration of a little less than
l per cent in the condition of the crop
for the first two weeks of June. but
this was the result of comparing with
relatively high figures published to-
ward the end of May and the trade was
more inclined to contrast the mid June
condition of S3.6 with a report of SO. 2
at this date last year. or with the of
ficial June bulletin of 791.
some nervousness has been expressed
as to the effect of high temperatures
in the eastern belt and there have been
reports of boil weevil in Arkansas but
otHeT Wise private reports nave been
generally favorable and weather con-
ditions have met with no general crit
icism. The census figures on supply
and distribution helped to strengthen
the old crop situation and the continued
reduction in the local stock has led to
many bullish predictions that cotton
must be attracted here in considera @
volume before the supply will be suf-
ficient to furnish the near months ade-
quate protection
