For two years the second floor apart

Stuyvesant Avenue. Brooklyn, had been
p mystery 70 the surrounding residen-
tial neighborhood. 1t was granted in
the gossip of the tenants that some
family lived there. But no one had
seen the furniture moved in; no one
had ever seen human being enter or
leave the fiat; the door was never open;
no lights fickered through the shaded
windows; no sound disturbed the per-
petusl silence except occasionally
plaintive, shrill walls like the peevish
fretting Of sick child.
One day a letter carrier found an
old man lying fiat in the hallway
whispering through the crack under
the bolted door. Espionage by neigh
bors confirmed the tale-this gray
haired man, sneaking into the house
several times a week, linked the mys-
.erious apartment with its unknown
inmates to the rest of Brooklyn. Often
he left bundles outside the door. NO
one ever saw them taken in, the lock
did not click, never hinge cresked.

SHUTS DOWN ACID PLANT
Tennessee Copper Company Takes
Action to Make Repairs

NEW YORK. Jan. THE Tennessee
Copper has notified the Agricultural Cor
poratIon that 1t may be forced to shut
down It's sulphuric acid plant at Copper
Hill for an indefinite period. and that at
any rate production of acid will be re-
duced considerably. It is understood that
the main acid producing plant of the
Tennessee Copper Company has col
lapsed. which is the reason for the nti-
fication that shipments of acid may have
to be discontinued indefinitely or cur
tailed
How serious the damage is, is not yet
definitely ascertained but 1t will inter-
fere with delivery of acid for several weeks
at least.
The closing of the acid plant means an
enormous loss to the Tessessee Company.
The large and profitable contracts taken
with the Russian Government and the du
Pont Powder interests were being sup
piled from this plant. Half OF the profits
from these contracts go to the Interna-
tional Agricultural Corporation That
company, however. is somewhat pro-
tected as 1t owns three other acid plants
in various parts of the country.

Receipts Smaller

NEW YORK, Jan. T.-Steady tone was
shown on the Cotton Exchange at the

points higher. Trading was only fair
In volume, with Wall stree; houses and

good on the call, coming from scattered
sources. Later. however, the dalr and
seemed to be satisfied, and as the SELL
ing from brokers usually acting for spot
interests increased, quotations were forced
down until they were 10 points under
initial levels.
Liverpool scored sharp advance after
the opening there and at the time of our
start showed gains OF sls to points
whereas little or no change had been
looked for. The rise in the English mar
ket, however. was apparently entirely lg-
nored.
Lower temperatures were reported from
some stations in the cotton belt. Widely
scattered precipitation was shown.
The receipts of cotton at the ports for
the day were estimated at 10000 bales,
compared with 5l.236 bales last week. 6S.-
40 bales last year and 5Sl43 bales In 1914.
The market seemed to meet selling very
similar to that of yesterday on this morn
ing's opening. 1t was reported that there
had been fair volume OF spot business
In the South late yesterday at generally
unchanged prices. and there was selling
here this morning TO hedge these pur-
chases. while there was also a renewal
OF local and Wall Street pressure.

of about to points from last nights
