FAMOUS HORSES ARE
MATCHED FOR PURSE

Havre de Grace, Md, Sept. "a.
Man O'War and Sir Barton, two OF
the worlds most famous race horses,
on October II will race at Kenllworth
track, Windsor, Canada, for $4,000
purse and a $4,000 gold cup.
Weight to be carried by Sir Barton
will be 1876 pounds; that to be carried
by Man O'War will be 100. Should
something intervene to prevent one
of the horses competing, the other
will cover the track for the $4,000 cup
alone.
The match was arranged this after
noon at a meeting between A. NJ. Or
pen, manager of the Windsor tracks;
Sam Biddle, owner of Man O'War, and
Commander J. K. L. Ross, owner of
Sir Barton.
An offer of $4,000 had been made
by the Laurel track for the match,
but the owners preferred to go where
they were offered the largest purse.
The distance of the race is to be
a mile and a quarter.
Willis Sharpe Kilmer, owner of Elk
terminator, the third horse named as
prospective contender in the race, de-
clined to enter his thoroughbred in
any but a handicap event. Orpen re-
fused to meet his demands.

WEAK SPOTS SEND
FUTURES DOWNWARD
Advance in Early Trading Are Offset
by Conflicting London Reports.

New Orleans, Sept. 24-Except
for a short period of advances in the
early trading, the course of prices in
the cotton market today was toward
lower levels and in a decided manner.
The main reason for the decline was
the weakness of the interior spot
markets, although much selling came
out because of the continued reports
of little business and easier prices in
dry goods, and because of the uncer-
tain and conflicting reports by cable
from England concerning the coal
strike. The lowset price of the day
came toward the close, following a
cablegram to the effect that there had
been a hitch in the issuance of the
notice postponing the strike. In the
early trading, the higest levels of the
day were reached on cablegrams stat
ing that the strike had been post

was shot through the lower part of
the body, was taken to the hospital
yesterday and was reported to be in a

right hip, passing through her body
and lodged just under the skin on the

COTTON MARKET
SHOWS DECLINE
Postporement of British Coal Miners
Strike Does Not Affect Markets.

New York, Sept 24-Reports that
the threatened strike of British coal
miners had been postponed for a week
and that the dispute was likely to be
settled, failed to prevent a further
decline in the cotton market today.
Moderate rallies occurred at the open
ing and again around midday, but To-
cal brokers said the demand seemed
to be almost entirely limited to COW
ering and most of the active months
made new low ground in the late
trading. December sold off from
24.55, the best price of the morning,
to $3.50, and closed at 1896, with the
general list closing steady at net
advance of z points on July, but Is
to 80 points lower on other positions.
October was relatively weak, selling
off to 25.95 on reports that spots were
offering at tenderable basis in the
southwest, and closing at the lowest
price of the day.
The market opened steady at a de-
cline of 20 points to an advance of 80
points, near months being lower I'M
der overnight selling orders, while
later deliveries felt the effect of the
improved news from the British labor
situation. Liverpool was better than
due, but showed no great strength,
and after selling at 1855 for October
and 23.75 for January, the market
weakened under a renewal of more
or less general pressure. Reports
that cotton mills at Utica had cut
the price on sheetings and yarns from
30 to 40 per cent evidently stimulated
bearish sentiment, while offerings
were promoted by continued southern
hedge selling. The western belt fore
cast for showers probably helped a
rally of 80 or 40 points around mid
day, but local brokers said it was COM
paratively easy to buy and the mark
ct turned very weak during the af-
ternoon. Liquidations of October was
particularly active with that position
selling 90 points below last night
closing figures, while January broke
TO 23.12 or SO points net lower. The
larger reports reported for the day
and reports of better tone in the
dry goods market seemed to be with
out any important effect, last prices
being within a few points of lowest
on most positions. Port receipts to-
day, 42,675 bales; United States port
stocks, 786,403; exports 65,994, max
ings 345,471 so far this season.
