Chimes Give Woman
Nervous Indigestion

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Mrs. Julia
Gertrude Lyle's chimes on her estate
at Tenafiy will remain silent at night
until Vice Chancellor Lewis in Jersey
City decides whether or not the bells
are a nuisance and really give Mrs.
Alice Mary Bailey nervous indiges-
ton.
Besides Mrs. Bailey one of the com
plainants is Charles P. Buckley, of
No. 141 Broadway, New York. He
presented affidavits of several other
netghbors protesting against the
chimes. Mrs. Bailey was a witness
and when questioned by Mr.. Parker
she insisted the chimes were not
nice, because the man who plays them
gets his scores all mixed up and tries
to play The Wearing of the Green
and Bonnie Doom at the same time"

NEW YORK MONEY.

New York, Sept. 5.-Money on call this
week was unchanged at Gas per cent.
Those rates were quoted every day and
there was virtually no change in the
situation except for the appearance to-
wards the close of the week of individual
lenders with offers, to put out call money
at 3 per cent Not much was taken at
those figures. Some banks offered al &
per cent money loaned with the stipula-
ton that il could be called at three days
notice. This practice was not general
however. For their own customers most
of the banks loaned freely at s per cent.
There was no new business in time
money this week, with the exceptions
Of limited amount of renewals of ma
turing loans for sixty and ninety days
at per cent
Mercantile paper was also very dull
Local buyers were out of the market
There was a limited business elsewhere.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET

New York, Sept. Sect ready TO buy
American cotton as an investment first
and perhaps as a speculation, which may
nnally give return out of all proportion
to the records of previous years. Prices
likely TO prevail in the not remote future
for actual cotton will attract the atten-
ton OF consumers all over the world and
directly or indirectly purchases will be
made either OF actual cotton or con-
tracts wherever safety be assured by
the selling end of these commitments.
During the French revolution in 1913
American cotton sold under 5 cents per
pound. During the civil war on account
of the complete paralysis of the cotton
growing industry of the South 81 per
pound was paid in gold for cotton landed
from Southern ports at Bermuda and
Havana
Since the civil war cotton again sold
down under cents per pound in the
South and was quoted at around these
figures on two periods from various
causes. In 1852 under pressure Of
p, 600 bales yield for two crops the
total value Of which aggregated only
$500, 900, 900 prices climbed until Is cents
per pound was reached for actual sales
