BY HARRY P. BURTON


New York, April 15.-'T dare not
hope and l am long past fearp'
Huddled in one dark corner of the
bleak, cold cell where she is now con-
fined, Ida Sniffen Walters, soon to
become a mother for a third time, let
these words fall in tragic tones, her
head sunk deep upon her breast.
They were the FIRST words this
woman. held on charge of murder
ing her two babies, has spoken for
publication since her arrest three
months ago.
There is nothing of the passionate,
highly strung woman in his visible
makeup nothing melodramatic in
the demeanor of this mother. who,
the famous classic dancer, Isadora
Duncan, says should be let go free
and sent by society into the orange
groves of California to forget her sor-
rows.
Instead her voice is keyed in the
contralto register and beautifully
modulated. She is very tall. nearly
six feet, and is slender. She wears a
cnnSlnS dreSS OF FULLEST Dlack with a
white shawl drawn tightly about her
shoulders. ..-.,
She is Surely no more than 80
years old but across the youth of her
face hand stronger than Times has
written record deeper than years
may!
While she talked, Rogers, the
twice-married man, for love of whom
Ida Walters came to cell, stood near
theh door. He is proving most devot-
ed. He has not contested in any way
the suit for divorce filed by his second
wife when she learned, through the
tragedy, that he was maintaining a
home with Mrs. Walters in the
Bronx while he was still living with
her on Riverside Drive, and there is
not a day that he does not stay in
the little cell FOR SIX HOURS

 OF INTEREST TO THE NATIVES
 The War Department cooperating with tue Bureau of Education for the improvement of the Native has iss,:cd Instructions to thier agents to purchase fuel. dog feed and other co nmodities from the Natives. This is much appreciated both by the Blu re1u and the Natives themselves.
 This important consideration was brought about by much correspond ence, and the confirmation of this poi>y depends wholly upon the Ma tives. If they give the War Depart. ment square deal it is quite certain: thlt practically all the contracts that c. be awarded to, and filled by the Natives will be given them.

Cotton Market

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE cotton
market opened firm at an advance of
1 to 9 points today, with July and
later deliveries making new high
records for the season on a continu-
alton of the buying movement which
was in progress here at the close of
business last week. Higher Liver
pool cables encouraged the demand
from Wall Street and Western
sources, while there was also some
foreign buying and further covering
of shorts on the advance to 10k
cents for July and about 10S cents
for October contracts. There was
enough realizing to cause reactions
of or 4 points from the best, and
there was some scattered selling on
good weather prospects, but the mar
ket was generally steady.
Realizing became very heavy dur
ing the middle of the morning, and
prices weakened, with odd crop
months selling to 7 and new crop
months about to 4 points net lower
but on this decline there was re-
newed demand from Wall Street
sources, and the market was less
active after midday, with prices q
point or two up from the lowest.
The market was irregular during
the middle of the afternoon, with
prices about two points lower to two
points higher, near months being rel
atiVely easy.

Judge Rellstab. In the Newark
branch of the United States District
Court, this afternoon, issued an order

has forty eight departments, $50 en-
ployes and a salary roll of $1,000 a
week.
He said that he learned from the
books of the ompany that the sales
in February and March totaled s26-
500 and that the merchandise on
hand April l was worth $265,000. He
declared also that he learned that fur
niture on outstanding accounts was
worth s550,000.

S77,617, and that he thinks the sales
this month W ill equal if not better,
