A man who is so intensely analyti-

That is one reason why Wright is
going to build a, small edition of
paradise for starving but earnest
scribes as an annex to his splendid
new mountain home on Santa Moni

to be about him. He employs a
Chinese cook. not because a Chinese
cook is better than a white one or
a black one or a parti colored one,
but just because this Chinese cook
is a being with a brain. He pals
about with cowpunchers, when he
can find punchers with egos. Failing
there, he would be just as apt to
take up with a baggage smasher, for
in baggage smashers there sometimes
occurs d lode of golden thought.
But take writer's Just imagine the

he wants them about him? His big

cabins on its grounds. And to these
cabins will come the men of letters

the crushing nearness of life in the

FOOT CRUSHED

Discharged Soldier Badly
Injured While Riding on
Espee Freight Near ella
Bend-Brought to Phoe-
nix for Treatment.

With his right foot so badly crushed
that amputation may be necessary
W. ID. Cootner, until recently a pri-
waite in the Sixth L. S. infantry sta =
toned at Ell Paso, was brought to
this city yesterday morning from ella
Bend.
Cootner who was injured while
riding on freight train en- route to
San Francisco, had boarded the train
at Tucson and claims that he gave a
brakeman two dollars to let him ride
as far as Yuma About eight miles
out of ella Bend the train stopped
and he was thrown off by members
of the crew, but succeeded in getting
on again before the train started. In
some manner his foot slipped and
was crushed between the bumpers as
the train began TO move. Although
suffering greatly, he managed to stay
on the train until it stopped at ella
Bend. where his cries for help at
tracted the attention of trainmen.
He was removed to the office of DR..
l.. II. Richards, who gave him surgi-
cal attention and saw to it that he
was sent to Phoenix on the next
train, reaching here early yesterday
morning DR.. Richards gave it as his
opinion that it would be necessary
to remove the foot, but local physi-
clans who attended him think ii may
be saved.
Cootner, who tells story of hard
luck in connection with the escape Of
some military prisoners whom he was
detailed to guard, shows a discharge
from Company L. Sixth infantry,
dated July IS, and an order on the
officer in charge at the Preside, at
San Francisco, for his personal eff

shows that he enlisted in January.
prior to which time he saw service
for two years in the Philippines.
Following his discharge he started
for San Francisco, where he has
friends, and as he had no money for
travel expenses, was making his way
as best he could on freight trains.
After he was hurt, he says, the brake
man to whom he had given the two
dollars refunded his money He was
taken TO the county hospital last
evening. and unless an operation is
necessary it is probable that he Will

SEVERE BEAR DRIVE UNSETTLES MARKET  Prices in Many Instances Lowest of Years-N. Y.
 Central Attacked

New York, April 16.-A severe bear drive unsettled the stock market today, carrying down prices in many instances to the lowest figures of the year. The attack was centered on New York Gen. tral, which has been a soft spot in the list for long time It broke to S6ss, the lowest point since 1885. Six teen other stocks including Union Pa cific, the Hill shares, Lehigh Valley and Steel, sold at the years low points.
 The whole character of the market changed after the receipt of the news from Washington that Mexico prob ably would accede to the demands of this country. The Mexican crisis had given the shorts one of their strongest arguments and the sudden change in the situation sent them to cover. The selling movement was halted and, a rally set in. By the close prices were we'll over the days low level with full recoveries in some cases
 No specific explanation was made of New York CentraIs weakness, although there were rumors of the sort often put out for stock market purposes In tniS instance IL was reported that Seri ous opposition had developed to New York Centrars consolidation plan The Selling movement seemed, however, to be due chiefly to the work of a DOW erful bear clique which selected New York Central because it was a vuiner- able stock.
 The raid came at almost the same hour as yesterdays drive. which cen tered around Union Pacific In the same way. during the last few days, Lehigh Valley and Steel have been singled out for pressure at various times. These circumstances suggested that a broad selling campaign had been undertaken and in this connec- tion the name of long Chicago oper- ator was mentioned most frequently.
 There was good demand for the new issue of New York city 41sc which were offered at 102.10 by the syndicate which paid 101.45 yesterday The old New York city 4lss sold on the ex- change as low as 101 A. The success ful outcome of the citys bond sale Is expected to induce various private cor porations to come forward with offer ings. St Paul is considering the sale of s25,000,000 or s30,000,000 4E per cent general mortgage bonds

IMMENSE SALES OF CORN BREAK MARKET
Prices Heavy 3-4 to 1 5-S to 1 3-4c Net Decline-Wheat
 Depressed by Break

Chicago. April 16.-1mmense sales of corn today broke the market There were many defections from the bull side and it looked as if large number of heretofore stubborn holders had decided to stand out no longer against Argentine competition. After fall that amounted in some cases to as much as 2i4@2ssc a bushel, prices closed heavy at decline of A@lssd1S4e net Other speculative articles all showed a setback; wheat. Sdia01e: oats. 14Gisd1sc. and provisions. 10al2l4a 42isc
 Downward changes in the price of corn were so rapid at one time that execution of orders became next to impossible. Selling had been general from the out set, with no sign of any important rally. but it was not until the last hour of the session that the market collapsed out right Shorts as a rule seemed to have covered on the day previous, and there was no support from even that quarter. Meanwhile. bull leaders who time and again of late have come to the rescue of prices appeared to have lost courage.
 Argentine corn capturing consumers farther north daily from the gulf and farther west from the Atlantic made the burden of holders severe, especially in the May option with settlements only fortnight off, and no ready outlet in sight for the millions of bushels on hand fin Chicago. The shutdown of corn indus try at St Louis and the expected closing of another at Pelin. H., were additional sources of weakness.
 Wheat was depressed by the break in corn and by prospects for showers over the greater part of the spring and winter belts, notably western Kansas. Lower cables and a forecast of heavier ship ments from Russia counted also in favor of the bears. Increasing talk of dan ger from Hessian fly tended somewhat to check selling
 In the oats crowd, active covering by shorts held prices comparatively steady.
 Liquidating sales of provisions were on a scale that was a fitting parallel to the corn market. After a violent descent in quotations, packers became good buyers and gave rise to a steadier feeling at the windup.
 Future quotations were as follows:

GOOD REPORTS FROM THE COTTON REGION
Close Steady, Net Gain of 2 to 8 POints-Sufficient
 Buying Checks Decline

New Orleans, April 16.-Cotton was quieS but steady today with the fear of unfav- orable weather the main influence. 1t caused enough buying to check the de- cline that started at the opening and bring about a small advance, which at the highest amounted to to 9 points The close was steady at net gain of to points.
 The weather map was favorable and the best reports thus far this season were received from the cotton region. Inrica- tions weer that a vast amount of planting was being done and reports from many parts of the belt were that with pre- vaiing conditions seed would germinate quickly. This started a selling wave around the opening, but al the lowest the market was only to 4 points under yes terday's last quotations. The appearance of a storm on the map with cold wave following, both of which threatened the cotton region, caused fear among shorts and stimulated a moderate amount of fresh long buying.

OFFERINGS LIMITED
 IN COTTON MARKET
Selling Movement Checked by Renewed Demand for
 Old Crop Months

New York, April l6.-Cotton was steadier today Renewed demand for old crop months from spot house brokers who were heavy buyers of last week. and fore casts for unsettled and colder weather in the western belt, appeared to check the selling movement and offerings were Inn tied, Closing prices were steady and from to points net higher on all months ex- cept April, which was nominaly points
 lower.
 Liverpool did not fully meet yesterdays 8 late rally here. and the local market opened steady at a decline of to points under overnight selling orders or scat terng pressure. Offerings, however. were far from active, and prices soon steadied on covering of shorts who became rather more active buyers following better Mex ioan news and less favorable weather pre- dctions The break of about 5 points from last weeks high records on May contracts seemed to have reflected sub stantial reduction in the trailing long in- terest and in the absence of any impor- tant selling no great volume of demand was necessary to advance prices. After selling about points net higher, how ever. the market met some realizing and closed al reactions of ? to 3 points, all though there was no change in the gem eral character of the news
 The arrival of 1269 bales of American cotton from Liverpool was reported pre- sumably for delivery on May contracts. The story in connection with this ship ment was that a prominent Liverpool firm long of March in Liverpool had been short of May here and finding 1t difficult to cover in the local market on the recent advance, had shipped the actual cotton. This is not the first season that Amer ican cotton has been returned here from abroad. The outlook was for continued fair and warm weather in the eastern belt and the daily weather details resumed to- day for the season showed favorable con- ditions generally over the belt.
