New York Cotton.

New York, April 19.-There was q renewal of scattering liquidation in the cotton market early today. Rela : lively weak cables again attributed to the easier ocean freight situation, but the hope of incl eased exports failed to create any demand of conse- oucnce. while sellers were encouraged bv the favorable weather map. The opening was easier at a decline of 11m1S points and the active months sold 19M25 points nel lower during the carly trading with May touching 1990c and October 1S.43c. These were the lowest prices reached since the advance on the declaration of war, which carried May up to 2l.2oc, and October to 1975c on Monday or last week.
 The market became very duict later and prices rallied some 3M9 points from the lowest on covering. July sold up to 19.G2c and October to 1S.4Sc, but seemed to meet a little more cotton around this level and lost 3 or 1 points of the improvement car ly in the noon hour. Reports of all improved spot demand helped the bulge, but detailed weather reports were considered favorable as to con- ditions east of the river.

INSANE MAN ESCAPES
 FROM TRAIN ON DESERT

One of the most remarkable rail- road incidents and stories of the des- ert occurred this week at Bagdad when the westbound train was held for over three hours in an effort to capture two insane men who had es- capped from the train.
 At Bagdad, two of the passengers, father and son, suddenly and simul- taneously became obsessed with the idea that some one aboard was trying to kill them. The couple, M. F. Meighan, 50 years old, wealthy oil man of Midwick, Pa., and his 20-year old son, R. o. Meighan, leaped from the train and started to run straight across the waterless desert. After them ran Engineer Harry Pixton and Fireman Stanley Merta. They pursued the fleeing men five miles, finally c0rnering them in a canyon up the muontains. There, according to the trainmen's story, the elder Meighan sat down and refused to return. After urging him some distance, all seven men were near exhaustion and death from lack of water.
 Finally, unable to hold the train longer, the members of the crew re- turned to it and sent special Agents Morgan and Murdock out to bring in the Meighans.-Needles Nugget.
