NET LOSSES SMALL
 IN STOCK MARKET
Further Unsettlement With Movement Irregular and
 at Times Confused

New York, April 25.-There was fur ther unsettlement today of the stock mar ket. The movement was irregular and at times confused. While the downward movement was extended, net losses were considerably smaller than on the preced- ing day.
 The irregularity of the movement was accounted for by the play of conflicting forces on the market. The two main fac tors in the weeks decline were the Mex ican crisis and heavy foreign selling.
 Today these influences pulled against each other. Foreign pressure was re- lieved. and American stocks in London, for the first time in several days, held fairly steady. On the other hand, the Mexican situation was as much of a dis turbing force as before. Preparations for war and the reported assassination of the probability of a serious and protracted struggle, and there was corresponding depression of sentiment
 At the opening, owing largely to the change of front on the part of the for eign holders of American securities, the market made a good showing, with majority of small gains. The opportunity was seized for pouring out stocks, and prices quickly began to yield. On the doWnWard swing most of the popular shares fell 1 to 3 points, with wider breaks in some instances. Liquidation grew more general as new low marks for the decline were made. London reversed its attitude and sold stocks here Com mission house brokers, not knowing what might happen in Mexico over Sunday, called for liberal margins, and poorly protected accounts were closed out Self ing was heavy for time, but toward the close the customary weekend covering made it's influence felt.
 There was a late rally, and at the end of the session losses in many cases were reduced to fractions.
 Some idea of what the weeks decline in stocks has cost, in the way of shrinking market values, may be had by a com parison of the last prices today with the close of last week. Canadian Pacific Mexican Petroleum and Smelting lost about 10 points each. St. Paul and tbs Hartman shares are about points lower but Reading and Steel show declines of only about 2 points
 Fully as significant of the depressed state or feeling as the fall in stocks was the heaviness today of the bond market some of the prominent bonds lost A point or more. Southern Pacific 5's. when is- sued, were sold heavily, and went as low as 991a. compared with the subscrip- tion price of 100. Total sales of bonds par value. $1,40O.00O. United States and Panama issues declined from F to points on call on the week.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, April 26.-(SpeciaI )--Liver- pool showed unexpected strength in the cotton market during the last hour of business abroad. advancing above last evening, when decline had been ex- pected.
 On these advances we opened points higher to slowly selling off on realizing sales by outside holders who thought the May tenders might not be taken up.
 It is generally understood, however, that the southern spinners intend to receive some 10000 to 5000 bales. As the largest part of the short interest was eliminated on the advance last week. the market slowly sold off on these realizing sales
 Weather throughout the south appeared favorable for farm worx, excepting in northwest Texas.
 The trade is very much puzzled over the entire situation with all the rumors now afoat.

COTTON PRICES NOT
 WELL MAINTAINED
Except on the May Option; :; Realizing Works Against
 Values
Rate. Bid. Asked.

New Orleans, April 25.-Cotton advanced in the early trading today, but prices were not well maintained, except on the May option, realizing working against values.
 May was firm throughout the session on short covering, shorts being afraid of developments in connection with tenders next week. Opening 3 to points up, the market at it's highest was to up. The close was i to points up net
 Cables were better than due and stimu- lated buying around the first call. Offer ings increased later on improvement in weather conditions and because of the desire for profits on the part of longs. Offerings of short cotton were not lib- eral after the middle of the morning. The trade was inclined to regard the Mexican situation as being more of a bull ish factor than ever because of it's prob- able influence on planting of cotton in Texas.

Old Gun Found
Near Butte Greek

William Wilson, the Ashland black
smith, had the luck to find an old
gun of the Indian days up Little
Butte creek, near the old Allen place,
one of the oldest in the valley. Mr..
Wilson found the gun while prospect
ing in that locality. 1t was under an
overhanging rock out of the weather
and rain.
The gun is number twelve shot
gun and is of very queer style The
barrels are about the usual length
and are quite light, showing that the
gun was an exceptionally fine one for
that day and age. The explosion Of
the shell was accomplished in a very
different manner from the ordinary
guns Two large hammers, one on
each side Of the stock, were arranged
so they hit against the top of the gun
barrels. One shell was found in the
gun, of a unique style to correspond
"ANA NAO AAANbhOu VI Ill III HtIublGdu
of the cap being located in the middle
of the back of the shell it was on the
top, and was exploded by a small pin
which protruded from the side of the
shell up through holes in the barrel,
which corresponded with the place
where the hammers lell.
The gun is rusted badly, but the
stock is in very good condition. Mr..
Wilson made a present of the relic
to A. II. Connor, who has quite a col
lection of old findings. Mr.. Connor
says he is now going to get hold of
all the old relics he can and enlarge
his collection. He has one other old
gun which Mrs. Connor found about
two weeks ago at Chiloquin. The gun
has patent mark on it of 1864. It
was probably used in that country
during the Modoc war.

1900 Acre Oil
Land Case Settled

The Keith Oil & Land Company's
1000 acres of railroad land in Barron
precinct was given the benefit of the
innocent purchaser" act of congress
in the United States district court at
Portland Saturday. This company
got possession Of an extensive acreage
near Ashland some thirteen years ago
at a time when the California oil
boom was in full blast and there was
much prospecting for oil in this vi
cinity. A local company spent $4,000
boring 1900 feet at point across
Bear creek from the Oak street bridge
in an effort to strike flowing well
of oil, but without success. Enthusi-
asm died out before any further effort
was made. The Keith people sent
experts here and their land purchases
were made with the view OF oil devel-
opment, but they did not do any ex-
tensive work. Their lands have great
ly increased in value since that period
with the development OF the valley
The 1000 acres which they paid the
federal government $3.50 per acre to
confirm their title was only the rail-
road grant lands purchased from the
o. & c. at the time. In addition they
purchased extensively from private
parties.

Slide Near DunSmuir
Delays all Trains

A big slide occurred at Motion
near Dunsmuir, which has delayed all
the trains through here today. The
big trestle is out and 600 feet OF
track east of the trestle is covered
with rocks and dirt. Men have been
hard at work all day clearing the
track and repairing the trestle. 1t is
remarkable how swiftly the trained
crews can repair the damage, for to-
night at O'Clock the first train will
come through-the 4:3O from the
south. No. 12, which was greatly de-
layed, will come in with the first sec
tion of No. 16, the train that is due
from the south at 4:30. Fourteen,
or the early morning train, is COM
ing in with second sixteen.

Real Pitcher

The former star pitcher of the st.
Louis Cardinals, Collie Druhot. is
working with the Talent baseball
club and is responsible for their VIC
tory over Grants Pass in last Sun
days game, says the Medford Sun.
Druhot held Grants Pass to five hits
and tsruck out twelve men.
Although it is not allowable to
hire outside players, II is not very
probable that the other clubs will OBJ
ject to the addition OF this player as
they have been shown that It Is the
only way in which Talent can posi-
bly, make showing in the league.
Talent meets Medforu Sunday with
the strongest lineup they have had
this year and the addition of the new
player will make things interesting.
Two years ago Druhot pitched for
the st. Louis Cardinals and was
classed as one of the speediest pitch
ers that club had lie later played
with the Portland Coast team aud
there made good. After he had So
successfully won last Sundays game
the Talent fans showed great deal
OF spirit and met their team at the
station with brass band. After a
concert the members of the team
were given dinner at the expense
OF the fans.
