Cotton

There was very sharp advance in
the cotton market yesterday owing to
increasing apprehension over the crop
situation in Texas and the strength Of
Liverpool over the local holiday. Oc-
tober contracts sold up to 24.70, making
an advance of SO points from the clos
ing price of Wednesday. October
closed at 24.62, with the general list
closing firm at net advance of SO to
81 points.
The market was firm from the start
Liverpool made strong showing and
was heavy buyer at the opening here
The advance met considerable local
and Southern selling, but the offer
ings were readily absorbed and rcac-
tions Of few points during the mid
die of the day were followed by in
creased trmness and activity in the
late trading.
Private cables attributed the advance
in Liverpool to local and American
buying, reports of crop deterioration
III Texas and scarcity of contracts. An
other cable said there had been call
ing by Manchester. The chief in
huence, however, was the crop stu
alton in Texas. Detailed weather re-
ports showed lower temperatures in
the Southwest, but no rain in drouthy
sections. Exports for the day were
81 ,606 bales. Southern spot markets,
as officially reported, were all un-
changed, except Houston, which was
cent higher and Galveston. which
showed an advance Of AS points.

Corn.-The strength in the corn mar

view of the excellent weather which
prevailed over practically the entire
belt. The advance in oats was apparent
ly largely responsible for the strength
in corn, but il was also evident that
the market felt the influence of con-
tinued moderate receipts, which gave
rise to further anxiety in regard to
available stocks for delivery during the
summer months. Bears were very
timd and the fact that operators have
become extremely cautious about TAX
ing the short side is believed by some
to be weak feature, which may have
an influence on values.

SPORTSMEN WILL
PROTECT GROUSE
Many of Them Apply For Pc,
titions to Close Counties
For Periods of Years

Sportsmen in a dozen counties of
Pennsylvania have already applied
for the blank petitions with which
to begin the movement in behalf of
CLOSED counties on ruffed grouse
shooting in order to save the birds
from extinction. The State Game
Commission has prepared hundreds
of blanks, which follow the form as
laid down in the act of 1915, and
from inquiries made there will be a
lively demand for them.
Westmoreland, Northampton were
the first counties to make applica-
ton and the letters told of much in
terest in the project, while Brad
ford, Clea1ield. Forest, Clinton and
others where the grouse is known
have been heard from. The impress
sion here is that the sportsmen of
all of the counties will lose no time
in getting their papers filed So that
the fall will find the whole state
closed. There will be no counties
open under the general plan because
open counties would be fairly r-aided.
The grouse are now prohibited in al
most half the counties and by a gen.
eral arrangement there would be no
need to go to the Legislature.
From all accounts sportsmen have
given valuable help in behalf of the
quail during the terrible winter
They are reported as being fed in
many sections, although hundreds
have undoubtedly perished because
of the deep SHOWS and inability to
get food. Provision has also been
made for wild turkeys in many sec
tions.
DR.. Joseph Kalbfus, Secretary of
the State Game Commission, says
that while some people are afraid
that deer will perish of thirst be-
cause of frozen streams he does not
think there is danger as long as
there is snow on the ground. In
some counties. reports are that
people have been putting out hay for
deer. People in Clearffeld county
have been much disturbed over the
deer situation.
About 1000 pheasants are now in
the hands of the game wardens and
men in charge of the preserves to be
liberated when the winter is over
and the birds can take better care
of themselves. The quail which have
been optioned in Mexico will not be |
shipped until weather Is normal and |
they can stand the shipments.

Three Boys Kill Watchman

Philadelphia, Feb. II. - In attempt
ing to escape from the Philadelphia
Protectory at Fatland early yesterday

ed Patrick McGrory. the watchman,
60 years old.
The boys, hidden in the clothes

Molla B. Bjurstedt Twice
Winner in Tennis Finals;
Defeats Eleanor Goss First

New York Feb. lin the realm
of sport Saturday was a great day
for Norway representatives of the
little country in the northern cor
ner of Europe, scoring victories in
both singles and doubles of the wo-
mems tennis tournaments, on the
courts of the Heights Casino, in
Brooklyn. The victor in the indi-
vidual competition was that star
of the nets. Miss Molla Bjurstedt
She defeated Miss Eleanor Goss by
score of 6-1, 6-1. In the doubles
Miss Bjurstedt and Mrs. Johan
Rogge, who arrived only a short
while ago from the land of the mid
night sun, took the measure of Miss
Marie Wagner, the National Indoor
title holder and Mrs. d. c. Mills, by
62, 6-i. The manner in which
Miss Bjurstedt handled Miss Goss
was a surprise of the year. When
the Brooklyn girl defeated Miss
Florence Ballin in the semi-flnal
rounds by the one-sided score of
60, 60, it was believed that
sensation was about due. Instead,
however, Miss Bjurstedt forced ner
to swallow a dose of the medicine
that she had administered to Miss
Ballin. That sizzling service on
which the admirers of Miss Goss
had banked, was as easy for Miss
Bjcrstedt as anything else she has
been asked to stand against through
out the tournament. The champion
pounced upon every ball as it came
speeding over the. net and if she
missed a few she got more than
enough to subdue the attack of her
opponent. Thus held, Miss Goss
fell an easy prey.

of awards for improvements since
that date.
The owners contend the act Of
1871 is UNCONSTITUTIONAL, some of the
attorneys pointing to similar acts in
other states in which the courts
made such a ruling. 1t is under
decide the act is constitutional an
appeal will be taken by counsel for
the property owners.
The five suits which were listed
for the special session of court this
week were brought by the following:
E. G.. Slabach, owner of 1870 North
Front; John Yingst, 1892 and 1900;
Harry ]. Berrier and Margaret. c.
Berrier, owners of 1204-06-10; Lewis
Finfrock, Jr., 1914. Settlements in
some of the cases were anticipated.
Exceptions to the proceedings and
appeals from the award of the view
ers caused the first delay in the
plans of the city. The exceptions
were overruled and then it was de-
cided to have jury trials to decide
damages in the appeal cases. When
the city asked for the award of is
sues and filed bonds counsel for the
property owners again objected but
the court overruled the objections
and set a date late last year for the
trial of the cases. The city then OBJ
tanned three realty experts who made
a slightly revised schedule of awards
with the result that most of the
property owners involved in the ap-
pealed cases agreed to settlements.
No provision was made by Council
in the 1918 budget for any improve
ment work in the Hardscrabble dis
trict, but if.any of the work can be
started this year bonds can be issued,
according to the commissioners.
