SMALL LOSSES IN
COTTON LAST WEEK

New Orleans, June 12.-Fluctua-
tions OF the last week in the cotton
market carried the price of the most
active contract months to % to II
points higher than the close showing
net losses of three to 10 points. The
market moved over an extreme range
OF 46 to 81 points, July trading as high
as 1927, as low as 11.S0 and closing
at ll.SG. In the spot department mid
ding lost % points in the net results,
closing at 1873, which price COM
pared with 41.00 cents as the last price
this week a year ago.
Weather conditions and the activi-
ties OF the boil weevil will doubtless
engage much OF the attention of the
trade this coming week but the gem
eral opinion seemed to be that the
British labor situation rapidly is
reaching a point where settlement
OF some sort will be forced and the
trade will follow with great interest
the voting by the coal miners on the
question OF accepting the most recent
proposals to end the trike. This
Will be OF all the more interest in the
cotton market because of the claim
that British textile workers now on
strike Will shape their course accord
Ing to the outcome OF the coal strike
situation.

HOW III HAPPENED

Mr.. Fred Hickman Tells How Auto Ac-
cidcnt Occurred Last Monday Night.
Mr.. Fred Hickman, who was in the
party last Monday night that had the
auto accident near Narnie on the
Greenville road, is rapidly recovering
now walking about town again. He
was in Fuller G Vaughn's garage Mon
day afternoon talking about the affair
and gave his version Of the accident.
There would have been no acci-
dent" he said, "if the big truck which
we met had been on the right side Of
the road and If it carried lights. Some
people have said that the truck car
ried a small light, but i never saw it.
We were coming towards Laurens at
a moderate rate OF speed. Just before
we reached Mr.. z. r. Traynham's
house the big truck suddenly loomed
ahead OF us. 1t was but q few feet
away and when / saw it, it looked as
big as this stable. Mr.. Irwin, who was
driving, made quick turn to the left
side of the road, the only side that was
open, making remarkably fine drive.
He succeeded in passing the truck, but
just as he got by the car gave quick
twist and over it went. | don't re-
member anything after that until Mr..
Traynham and others pulled me out
Of the car"
Mr.. Hickman, with Messrs. Bishop,
Edwards and McCravy are all rapid
ly recovering from their injuries. The
recovery Of Mr. irwin, however, has
been slower but he is showing signs
of Improvement. He went to Green
willie Monday to confer with special
lists in regard to an apparent facial
paralysis as a result of the accident
and received an encouraging report. II
is thought that he, too, will soon be
entirely recovered.
