train pulled Thompson out of the top
of the cab, the engine having fallen
over on its side. and he had been
caught in some manner, unable to eX-
tricate himself, but apparently he had
not been seriously injured. After
reaching the ground he walked about
for an hour or more and assured those
about him that he had not been in
jured. Later he was compelled to "
down on a stretcher, and was carried
back to the station at Bond. On ar
rival there he walked from the car
over to the hotel, and, although the
physicians were apprehensive over his
condition. he did not believe that he
had been seriously injured by the
iscalding steam. He was sitting up in
bed and a doctor engaged in dress
ing a wound on his back whsl the
death summons came. 4 am going
bows" were his last words.
Thompson was AZ years OF age. He
was united in marriage about II years
ago to Miss Doolittle. daughter of a
prominent Newton family, whose elder
brother, Charles Doolittle, also an en-
gineer on the Ship Island system, was
killed in a wreck in the Jackson yards
several years ago. He is survived by
his wife and two children, a boy of Il
and a girl of 10.
The funeral party was accompanied
to Newton this morning by Messrs
Doolittle, Rasback. Avery, DERRICK
and Bernard, representing the Broth
erh0od of Locomotive Engineers.
The body of Charles J. Carroll, the
fireman on the Gulf & Ship Island
northbound passenger train wrecked
near Bond Friday morning. reached
Jackson Saturday night and was taken
20 the family residence.
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1916-07-10

Owing to the serious nature of the
wreck, the engine going over tres
tie. and Carroll being caught beneath
the cab, the body was not recovered
until Saturday morning. it having been
necessary to build a temporary trestle
before the wrecking train could do its
work.
Carroll was a native Of Kinds coun-
ty. % years OF age, born and reared
inear Utica, where his father and moth
ler now reside. He was one Of a family
of 10 children. and this is the first
time death has invaded the family
circle.
Carroll had been in the railroad
service about three years. and was
on his first passenger run when bis
death occurred. He was, employed by
the Illinois Central for nearly three
years. and three months ago accepted
place on the Gulf & Ship Island, be
ing given freight run. During the
early part OF the week he-was notified
! of promotion to a passenger engine.
Mr. Carroll was married about Is
months ago to Miss Grace Kelly. a
young woman of Seminary.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

NEW YORK. May S:-The foreign ex-
change market in the first hour of business
today was only moderately active and
rates moved irregularly and within mar.
row range. The strong feature was Stock
holm exchange. which rose to 1880 a 30.70,
a gain of about 40 points over the quota
tion of less than week ago. On the
other hand, gullders and lire were easier
There was little or no feature to the rest
of the market which was in the main
steady, as follows:
Demand sterling, AIS 1916, cables
4.76 7-16; franc cables 5.93&. checks
5.94A ;reichsmarks, 1875 a 76& lire cables

80 ~ @S01s.
The strength of Scandinavian exchange
was in evidence last week and was at.
tributed TO purchases of ships and supplies
from those countries by Germany and
other belligerents.
In mid.afternoon the only appreciable
change in the foreign exchange market
was an easier turn in lire, to 6.3S for
cables and $40 for checks. Other quota.
tions were: Demand sterling. S4.75N,

SMALLER AREA OF WINTER
WHEAT TO BE HARVESTED
Government Report Shows Decrease
of ia Per Cent. on May 1

WASHINGTON, May s.-The Crop
Reporting Board of the Bureau of Crop
Estimate, United States Department of
Agriculture. this afternoon made the fol-
lowing estates from reports of its ocrre-
spondents and agents:
on May /. the area of winter wheat to
be harvested was about 33,020.000 acres.
or ia per cent. 4,236,O00 acres less than
the acreage planted last autumn, and 1874
per cent. 7.433.OOO acres less than the
acreage harvested last year, viz, 40,453,-
900 acres.
The average condition of winter wheat
on May l was s2.4, compared with 1873
on April 929 on May /, 1915, and s7.5,
the average for the past 10 years on
May /.
A condition of s2.4 per cent. on May
is indicative of a yield per acre of
approximately 15.1 bushels, assuming
average variations TO prevail thereafter.
on the estimated area TO be harvested,
15.1 bushels per acre would produce 499,-
29s.0O0 bushels. or 23.S per cent less
than in 1915; 27.l per cent less than in
1914 and 4.6 per cent. less than in 1913.

COTTON PRICES ADVANCE
WITH SCATTERED SUPPLY
Brokers Discuss Possible Peace in
Would Cause Jump

NEW YORK. May S.-Buoyancy was
shown in the cotton market this morning
with advances 3 to l2 points being re-
corded at the start, the late options scor-
ing the largest gains. The buying, which
was general, was led by spot interests and
commission houses. Wall street also pur-
chased.
There was only scattered supply, with
the exception of operators who have been
selling for some days continuing to put out
shorts. Much comment was heard Of the
public buying cotton, which was indicated
by the orders executed by commission
houses, some of which had been out of
the market for weeks.
After the call prices on the near
months rose about 8 points, while later
positions held Arm. October, which cross
ed 1S cents on the call, met some selling
at that figure but was quickly absorbed,
and that option after selling off about
points, rose again and at the end of the
first 10 minutes was quoted at 1902 cents.
However, the prices worked back TO
within a point or two of Saturdays close
during the middle of the forenoon.
The improved foreign diplomatic out
look was commented upon before the
opening, and there was much talk or pos
sible peace in Europe, which, it was point
ed out would cause a sharp jump in
cotton.
AFTER tnc reaction 10 lG.io Ioi July
and l2.92 for October, or approximately
10 points from the early high level prices
steadied on a firmer turn in New Orleans,
continued trade buying of July and
further broadening of commission house
demand II was estimated around the
ring that profits had been taken on a
large amount of long cotton during the
morning, and the readiness with which the
market absorbed the offerings served to
check selling for reaction.
The receipts at * goEts for the day
were estimated at 10, 600 bales, compared
with 13925 bales last week, 1883 bales
last year and 9s14 bales In 1914.
