LOCAL BRIEFS
independence eeIi-July q. ITS.

independence BeIi-July q. 176.
There was tumult in the city.
In the quaint old Quaker town.
And the streets were thronged with
people
Passing restless up and down
People gathering at the corners,
Where they whispered lip to ear.
While the sweat stood on their temples
With the stress of hope and fear.
AS the bleak Atlantic currents.
Lash the wild Newfoundland shore,
So they beat about the state house.
So they surged against the door;
And the mingling Of their voices
Swelled in harmony profound,
Till the quiet street Of Chestnut
Was all turbulent with sound.
Far aloft in the high steeple
Sat the bellman, old and gray;
He was weary of the tyrant
And his iron-sceptered sway.
So he sat with one hand ready
On the clapper Of the bell,
Till his eye should catch the signal,
The expected news to tell.
See, See the dense crowd quivers
AS beside the door a boy
Looks forth with hands uplifted,
His eyes alight with JOY.
flushed the peoples swelling murnur
AS they listen breathlessly-
Ring he shouts. ring grandpapa!
Ring. Oh, ring for liberty
Quickly at the welcome signal
The old bellman lifts his hand
Forth he sends the good news making
Iron music through the land.
How they shouted! What rejoicing!
How the old bell shook the air,
Till the clang of freedom echoed
From the belfries everywhere.
The old state house bell is silent,
flushed is now it's clamorous tongue,
But the spirit is awakened
| Still is living, ever young
And Wen ne'er forget the bellman
! Who. that great day in July
Hailed the birth of independence
| Which, please God. shall never die.

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. January 31.-The cotton
market opened at decline of 6 to IL
points today in response to weak Liv-
erpool cables, nervousness over politi-
cal conditions and reports from New
Bedford that some southern shippers
were fully meeting the decline in fu-
lures. March contracts sold at HI,
May at 1909 and July at 1915 on the
call. or back to the lowest level reached
on the break of last week, and the de-
cline seemed to attract a good deal of
realizing by Wall street and other re-
cent sellers.
This demand steadied the tone and
caused rallies of several points during
the early trading. Private cables at
tributed the decline in Liverpool to
more aggressive selling on a recount Of
the Liverpool stock showing an in
crease of $1,000 bales in the amount of
American and decrease of 10000
Egyptian.
Futures opened steady March. 11.77;
May. 1909; July. 1915: October. 1918;
December. 1924.
The early rally of or 8 points was
soon followed by renewed weakness.
There were rumors of increased spot
offerings in the eastern belt. while the
early buyers seemed to be getting their
contracts without any difficulty. and
prices broke under continued liquida-
ton or bear pressure. A few stop or
ders were uncovered as the market
worked into new low ground for the
movement. and prices were unsettled
around midday. with the active months
ruling about II to IS points net lower
May contracts sold off to 11.95 and July
to 1910.

CHANGE IN LAW SOUGHT
BY FLOUR MANUFACTURERS
Present Regulations Burdensome and
ResultA in Higher Prices,
They Assert.

Mixed -four manufacturers today made
an urgent appeal for the passage Of the
Rainey bill. which would relieve them
from so-called "burdensome" regula-
tions as to branding their product. be-
fore the ways and means committee.
They insisted that by placing the man
ufacturers of mixed flour under the
pure food law, as the Rainey bill
would do, they would be relieved of
much needless expense necessary to
compliance with the present statute.
and the public would be amply pro-
tected.
Representative Fordney, a republican.
of Michigan. produced a letter from
Secretary Houston advising that pass
age of the measure would weaken the
pure food law. Ascher Miller of
Wilkesbarre. Pa. president of the Ma
tional Association of White Corn Mill
ers, favored the bill. Passage of it, he
insisted. would mean a saving to the
consumer.

Special Dispatch to The Star
ANNAPOLIS. Md. January 31.-An
unprecedented number of midshipmen
were found deficient in the semi-an-
nual examinations which were COM
pleted Saturday. The academy board
has not finally passed upon the several
reports, but it can be stated authorita-
lively that the number of delinquents
will soar above 200. the largest number
in the history of the academy. Mathe-
matics proved the biggest stumbling
block. although the test in modern Ian
guages also proved a tripper.

Corn Prices Also Rise.

Adverse weather conditions had a
bullish effect on corn. The buying,
however was mainly in small lots.
After opening a shade to Y higher
the market continued to ascend.
Oats made only poor response to the
strength of other cereals. Demand
lacked volume.
Provisions were weak, notwithstand-
ing higher prices on hogs and grain.
Big decreases in exports appeared 10
be responsible chiefly.
A break in the New York stock mar
ket led afterward to a decided wheat
reaction. There was much accompa-
nying talk of the possibilities OF IN
ternational complications.
Prices closed heavy, TX a1H to Eva
2H net lower, with May at 1.s1H and
July at 1884.
Subsequently the corn market receded
when wheat turned down grade. Many
stop-Ioss orders were uncovered. The
close was weak, at n to / u net decline.

Special Flood Bulletin.

The heavy rains Of yesterday in Ar
kansas. the lower Ohio valley and the
Mississippi valley from ST Louis to
Vicksburg have continued throughout the
last twelve hours and, coming upon rivers
already in flood. have created a serious
situation in the river valleys of Arkansas,
and also along the lower Ohio valley and
the Mississippi valley. from Cairo to the
gulf.
Stages this morning were: st. Louis.
31.2 feet. flood stage, 80 feet: Cairo. 51.4
feet. food stage. IS feet: Memphis. 1913
feet. flood stage. IS feet; Vicksburg. SOL
17.S feet, flood stage. IS feet.
While warnings have already been dis
tributed locally to the points involved. it
now seems probable that, by reason of
the continued rains. the stages already
forecast will be slightly exceeded at vari-
GUS points. and that high stages in the
Mississippi from Cairo to the gulf will
be long continued.
