Cotton Market

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-The cotton
market was again influenced by the
relatively steady ruling of Liverpool
and continued large English spot
sales this morning. Private cables
reported that Liverpool had declined
early under local selling, but had raj
lied on continental buying and a good
spot demand. The local market opened
steady at an advance of 2 to 8 points
and active months sold about 8 to 5
points net higher during the early
trading on scattering demand from
shorts or trade sources. Houses with
foreign connections had orders both
ways. and Liverpool seemed to be
selling some July. but there was
nothing to indicate any pressure from
the South. and prices held steady in
a comparatively narrow market
Prices weakened during the middle
of the morning under foreign selling
of summer months and scattering
March liquidation. A few stop orders
were uncovered on the break. which
carried prices six or seven points net
lower but after the close of Liver
pool offerings became less active, and
the market was steadier at midday,
with active months three or four
points up from the lowest on cover
ing.
Rallies failed to attract any fresh
buying of consequence and the mar
ket was barely steady during the
early afternoon with prices about
to 5 points net lower

Grain Market

CHICAGO, Feb. 3.-Enlargement Of
the European visible supply discour-
aged the bull side in today's wheat
market. Reports of liberal offerings
from Russia counted also in favor OF
the bears. Cold weather west, how
ever, threatening possible damage to
the winter crop, was a steadying in
fuence from the start. Prices, which
OPENED unchanged to 1s4A up, re-
acted to below last nights level, but
then hardend.
News that train load shipments of
wheat were on the way to Chicago
from Kansas City brought about
later a more noticeable degree of
weakness. The close was heavy, \
to 1k@5s net lower.
Corn eased off on lack of demand
caused by plentiful stocks at most Of
the principal eenters. The opening
varied from u off to u up. with later
prices showing a material sag all
around.
Increased offerings from the coun-
try. especially Iowa and Illinois, kept
the market depressed. The close was
steady at u to q net decline.
Trade in oats was almost at
standstill. Prices fell with corn.
Lower prices for hogs carried down
which were also affected
bear,shly by large stores in local
warehouses. First sales were 249@5
to 75@10 lower, and there was no
sign of any important rally.

OU|MET'S FRIENDS
EAGER FOR HONOR
Boston Golfers Subscribe Fund
to Furnish Him With Eng
lish Expert.

If Francis Ouimet IS unsuccessful
in his quest for the British amateur
golf championship next May the
golfers of Boston will be in no way
to blame When the national open
champion decided to go abroad
fund was subscribed to defray his
expenses, but, not content with that,
Ouimet's friends are planning TO DO
even more for him.
The latest scheme which is said to
be under consideration by the Wood
land Golf Club, of which the cham
pion Is a member and which raised
the fund for his expenses, is that
another fund be raised to send with
Ouimet a player who knows the Eng
lish courses. Those who are backing
the plan point out the facts that
Ouimet is a young golfer, only TWEEN
ty years old and that the responsible
ity to be placed upon his shoulders is
heavy load.
They argue that II he is accom-
panied by an amateur golfer who has
visited the British courses before ana
knows the ropes, he will get much
more good from his preliminary prac-
tice than if he attempts to travel
alone. The members of the Woodland
Club have been impressed by these
arguments and have taken up the
matter.
In case companion is sent with
Ouimet 1t will be interesting to see
what golfer will be selected for the
pleasing task of escorting the young
champion. Unless the Woodland Club
intends to choose the man from its
own ranks John G.. Anderson would
seem the logical man for the place
Anderson, who was runner-up to
Jerome Travers at Garden City last
September, has made a number of
trips to the other side and is well
acquainted with conditions both In
Great Britain and France. He was
runner-up in the French amateur
championship in 1911. when Chick
Evans won that title. His duties as
a master in the Fessenden School,
near Boston, might make it impos-
sible for Anderson to get away early
enough to go with Ouimet, but if
the holder of the open title is to travel
with companion he could not do
better than to get Anderson to go
with him.

London Stock Market

LONDON, Feb. 3.-Money was plen-
tiful today, but discount rates were
steadier on the Continental bar gold
purchases.
Good investment buying sustained
gilt-edged securities and raised con-
soils three-sixteenths, but the rest of
the stock market was reactionary un-

Brazilian and Mexican shares were

American securities opened uncer-
tain and 'ower. Light support rallied

and later Wall Street bidding caused
a general advance. The closing was

WALL STREET
Market Closes Strong-Further
Roadway Upward Influenced
by Steel Buying.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-The market
opened close to yesterdays final
range, with no perceptible trend in
either direction. Trading was active
in Steel and Reading, but otherwise
the volume Of business was small.
Rock Island stocks, which were acute
ly weak yesterday, held steady.
Western Union rose a point and Can
lost one.
II g. m.-Attempts to continue yes
terday's reaction were frustrated
after a few minutes of selling. Sup
porting orders appeared in sufficient
volume to turn the course of prices
briskly upward. Great Northern
Northern Pacific, Union Pacific and
the Rock Island stocks advanced 1
to IL.
Noon-Except for a slight decline in
the early trading, which was soon
overcome, the market held firm
throughout the morning, and In some
instances material gains were made
The Hill stocks were in especially
good demand.
Rock Island stocks and bonds adj
vanced from the low prices of the re-
cent decline. General Motors jumped
twelve points and other low-priced
speeialties rose sharply, but the prin-
cipal demand was for Investment
stocks. Can was weak, rejecting dis
appointment at the company's annual
report, which showed a decline in net
of nearly 100000.
Bonds were firm.
l p. m.-Bulls took only perfume
tory interest in the early afternoon
market but the movement continued
slowly upward. Sustained demand
for high-grade stocks and the large
over subscription
Bond offerings had a good senti-
mental effect on speculation.
p. m.-Speculation broadened late
in the day and there was brisk in
quiry for the favorite speculative me-
diums. Amalgamated was carried
( above II on reports of improved
trade conditions Oh shares and the
independent steel stocks also were
| strong.
9 p. m.-rhe market closed strong.
Influence of large buying of Steel
for both accounts was felt through
out the list and the market made
further Roadway upward. High
priced industrial shares were in
favor, and there were signs of pool
operations in some of the low grade
speculative shares.

MOTORDOAT SHOW
BIC ATTRACTION
Newark Flying Craft Among
Features of Exhibit at Mad
ison Square Garden.
Ispeclsl 70 the NewnrIs star.I

iDVCCs4 ~ hfAF lNCWaAHe 'at'asl
NEW YORK, Feb. 9.--Largel crowds
were in attendance at the motorboat
show in Madison Square Garden yes
terday and today. The interest in
the show, which covers every depart
ment of small water craft of motor
power from the tiny motor-driven
dory to palatial deep sea ''limou-
sines' and flying boats, has satisfied
the promoters that the exhibition is
going to eclipse all previous exhibit
tons. While many visitors are at
tracted solely by curiosity, there
were those in attendance who were
hunting for boats and for engines
for use during the coming season.
One of the interesting features is
the demonstration being furnished by
the United States Volunteer Life
saving Corps, showing the methods
Of rescue, first aids and resuscitation
work. These demonstrations take
place in the concert hall, where the
corps has a fully equipped hospital
tent. One of the most interesting
parts of the daily exhibition is the
demonstration of the pulmotor and
lung motor. Superintendent Commo-
dore c. e. Raynor is In charge Of the
demonstration. and he is assisted by
Inspector F. c. Mills and Captain
Samuel Johnson.
The Boland Aeroplane and Motor
Company. of Newark, is among the
exhibitors at the show, and their fly
ing boat. which is on view in the
concert hall at the right of the main
entrance is attracting probably more
attention than any one exhibit at tho
show. IT is only In the last year or
two that the flying boat has been
developed. and this is the first time
such craft has been shown at a
motorboat exhiHition in this country.
There is also Curtis flying boat on
exhibition, bl through the promi-
nence given the Boland machine since
the courts have decided that all other
machines, with the exception of the
Boland, are infringements on the
Wright brothers patents, the exhibit
of the local manufacturers is at
tracing fiatter'ng attention. Great
interest was displayed in Boland con-
troll, the vital part of the mechanism
of the machine, which does not vio-
late the Wright patents.
The Boland exhibit consists Of a
complete and tested flying boat of
70-horsepoWer, the body of their latest
model. the aeroplane scout, and a
100-horsepower engine The 100-horse-
power engine is the lightest gasoline
motor of that horsepower, weighing
but $50 pounds complete.
A conditional sale was made yester-
day Of a duplicate of the flying boat
on exhibition, an upstate manufac-
torer agreeing to purchase, the ma
chine providing it is flown from
New York CITY to his home on the
shore of the Hudson near Ossining.
Vincent Aston showed a keen inter-
est in the Roland flying boat and had
the machine infinitely explained to
him. His fiancee. however, did not
share in this interest

LOST GIRL FOUND
IN THICK WOODS
Partly Frozen, Helen McAIIister
Could Give No Account or
Three-Day Wanderings.

WALLINGFORD, Conn, Feb. g.
Helen McAllister, the thirteen-year-
old daughter of Clyde North McAllis-
ter, professor of psychology in the
Missouri State Normal School. who
has been missing from the home of
her aunt in New Haven for three
days, was found early this morning
in the woods just outside this city.
Both the girls feet were frozen and
her hands, face and body were badly
scratched. She was unable to give
any coherent account of her wander
ings when the searchers came upon
her, and soon after being rushed to
the Office of a physician in this city
she lapSed into a semi-comatoSe
state, from which she could not be
aroused.
Late yesterday afternoon q man
telephoned to police headquarters
from the outskirts of the city that he
had seen a girl answering the de-
scription of Helen McAllister walking
" his place. Word was Immediately
sent to New Haven to the girls rela-
ives and they arrived here late last
vening. In the meanwhile consta-
les in the outlying sections had been
ent to hunt for the girl
When the relatives arrived from
Sew Haven several searching par
4 les were formed. All had about
;iven up hopes of finding the lost
me when faint cry came from some
hick underbrush. Hurrying to the
pot, the searchers, by aid of the
'ght of their lanterns, saw the girl
through the heavy growth. She
eemed to be unconscious
A hurried examination showed that
he girls feet and other parts of her
eody had been frozen. Her clothing
as almost in shreds and her shoes
ere torn. Her face, hands and body
ere covered with scratches. All eff
'orts to learn from her where she
ad been since she left New Haven
ere fruitless. Only an occasional
moan came from her. Physicians

Nassau Club to Make Changes.

In the desire to have It's links in
the finest condition for the women's
national championship next y. otem-
Der the Nassau Country Club has
decided on seveal changes on the
eastern end of its property which
will add about $50 yards to the total
length. This will not interfere with
the championship, however, for II the
weather does not permit the changes
being made without disturbing the
condition of the links the present
circuit will be used. Additional prop
erty has been acquired at the east
end of the links, and the fourth hole
will be shortened. but the fifth, if
tenth and sixteenth will be length
ened considerably by shifting tees.
Only one green will be changed, that
beingsthe fifteenth. This hole will be
extended from 80 to $50 yards.
