DIVERS MUST BE CAREFUL
Meet Numerous Dangers in Going
Below Surface.

Below Surface.
Referring TO the death Of diver en-
gagged on the Empress Of ireland wreck.
a writer in the Manchester Guardian says
that tile first sensation felt when the
diver goes down to 30 feet or so below
the surface Is a singing in the ears. This
is due to the drum Of the ear being
stretched little, and this Is caused In
turn by the fact that the air pressure on
the outside has been increased. while that
on the inside is kept normal for a few
seconds longer by some slight obstruction
In the Eustachlan tube connecting the
ear with the nose.
Ordinarily diver may descend quite
quickly to the scene of his work. But
he must be very careful how he comes
up. and the longer he remains down the
more time must he take in coming up.
The reason is that all the time he is
greater the depth the greater the pres
sure of the air. and the more of It he
absorbs in a given time His blood be-
comes aerated like soda water in a ST.
phon Reducing the prcsSre is equiv
alent to pressing the lever Of the siphon.
The air bubbles out.
At 200 feet down a diver should not
remain more than IL minutes at one time.
reckoned from the time he leaves the
surface till he begins to ascend, and he
should make six halts on his way up,
his time for ascending being not less
than half an hour II for some pressing
reason he should remain down at this
depth for an hour, he should take not less
than four hours to come up. When a
diver is brought to the surface too quick
ly and Is found to, have collapsed, he
should be instantly sent down again,
cruel though 1t seems. An alternative is
TO shut him UP in big steel cylinder
containing compressed air. thus Initiating
the underwater conditions. Then, grad
ually, the pressure can be reduced.

CURIOUS HUNTING CUSTOM
ooorgs, in Southern India, Adhere to
Strict Procedure.


There is a curious hunting custom
among the coores Of Southern India.
When a hunt Is arranged among the
villagers they usually meet early In the
morning at prearranged spot with their
dogs. According to the Coorg custom
they all sit down for a while Having
rested they proceed to discuss and decide
wnlch part Of the surrounding jungle
they are to beat. This being decided the
hunters station themselves at points OF
vantage and the beaters endeavor to drive
tne game, " any, toward them.

the dogs lie down and rub their backs

SHORT COVERING
PUTS COTTON UP
Small Spinners' Takings Dis
counted-Trade Interests and
Spot Houses Good Buyers.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Infiuenced by
weak Liverpool cables, the cotton mar
.ket opened barely steady to-day with
prices at a net decline of to points
from Thursdays close. Heaviness in
Liverpool was attributed to liquidation
by spot houses of near months. After
the call prices eased off l to points
from the opening.
Later there was some short GOVERN .
here ana spot interests bought March
and July. Wall street and wire houses
took some long cotton. A few brokers
who usually represent trade interests
were also buyers, while the selling came
chiefly from the ring and Liverpool bro7
kerS. The selling was insufficient to
maintain the low level and prices worked
back to last nights close in the second
hour.
Continued trade buying and covering
by shorts kept the tide turned toward
higher levels during the extreme fore
noon. This stopped the free offerings in
evidence and sent March to 1870, May to
1l.S7 and July to 11.S6. At these levels
the market found ready sales, which
however. held remarkably steady, de-
spite the fact that spinners' takings
during the week only aggregated 343. 600
bales. or $4,000 bales below those for the

NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 6.-Liverpool
has at last given away to the constantly
bearish tendency on our side. Futures
this morning were to s points lower;
spots points lower; sales 1900. Strad-
die selling at the enormous difference
from New York was probably the most
active factor in the break.
In conformity with the action in the
other markets, our market opened about
points lower and ruled quiet. There is
no disposition to bear except for quick
scalps, Opinion is expectantly bullish
with support held in suspense until
professional conditions in New York
have been satisfied and adjusted. Sta
tistics are likely to improve rapidly
from now on in the way of a decrease
in the movement, more rapid 4oss in
stock and an increase in mill takings, as
soon as the present large exports arrive
abroad 1t is a significant fact, showing
the rapid marketing and movement, that
the stocks at nearly all the Atlantic in
terror towns are smaller than last year.
