Today's session on the Philadelphia
Stock Exchange was marked by ir"
regular price changes. Early trade was
quiet with a trend to lower levels in
case of number of stocks, but as the
session progressed the market broadcned
and some fair gains were made. Last
weeks deficit in bank clearings and
further industrial disturbances seemed
to be responsible for most of the sell
ing.
Electric Storage Battery led sales for
the day, the aggregate being something
more than 5000 shares. The stock re-
sumed its advance at the opening of
trade, first sales being at % and 921s
as compared with a close of 81 on
Saturday. The activity continued dur :
ing the day, the price climbing until it
touched 05 at which figure some 100
shares changed bands.
The general list, while fairly active,
failed to score any large gains or losses,
with the possible exception of Baldwin
and the shares of the American Gas
Company. The former was off 9 points,

New York, Aug. 25.--The cottor
market opened active and firm this
morning. as the result Of strong cables
aud unfavornblc weather. General rain;
were shown again over the central anC
eastern belts.
After the opening the market contin
ued active and steady on support from
spot houses, with prices about % point!
net higher at the end of the first tiftcel
minutes.
The carly advance had the eucour
agement of an unfavorablc view o
weather conditions. the uncxpcctcdl.
low condition figures of the Memphis
Commercial Appeal, and the strength o
Liverpool.
For time it looked as though thcs'
features had inspired rather an aggres
sive demand. but the initial advance
met considerable southern selling, Will
the bullish construction of the CONNER
cial Appeal report was materially modi
fed by the fact that an allowance 0
four points was made in the condition
figures, for abandonment of acreage.
The rather heavy tone of the stool
market also encouraged disposition t
take profits on purchases of late las
week and prices sagged off several point
toward the middle of the morning. whcl
business became comparatively quiet.
The receipts at the ports for tn
day arc estimated at 1000 bales. agains
6412 bales week ago, II. .074 bales

THE IDAHO REPUBLICAN


The prize fish story of the season
comes from Crawford county. Pennsyl-
vania. where a man owns pet carp.
Whenever he feels like going fishing he
digs few worms and throws them
into the tank occupied by the carp.
: If the fish grabs them the man gets
his pole and goes fishing; If the carp
passes them up the man stays at home,
feeling that II is no day for fishing.
Thus the man figures that he loses
no time and he always returns with a
nice string of fish. according to the
story. -
