COTTONPR|CES OPEN HICHER..
 BREAK BADLY

The cotton markets today almost duplicated the performance of last Wednesday, when a big advance at the opening was succeeded by max imum limit decline by the close. Opening at an advance of 75 points in the case of New York October, the markets fluctuated violently, but mainly downward, throughout the day and closed for net losses averaging about $6 a bale. Today's decline practically cancelled Saturdays sweeping advance, leaving quotations about as they were at last Fridays close.
 An Associated Press dispatch to the Log Cabin Democrat states that news of the heavy damage to the crop in Texas by the storm and sharp ad- vances in the Liverpool market caused heavy buying at the opening of the New York exchange. This was fol- lowed by extensive profit taking and hedge selling, October declining to 1885 cents and January to 19.40 cents.
 The close was at practically the lowest figures of the day and repre- sented decline close to the maximum of 200 points from the days high mark. New York October closed 113 points net lower at 1857 cents and December 120 points down at 1860 cents. New Orleans October and De- cember each closed at the same fig ure, 1915 cents each, 110 points ::et lower on October and 105 on Decem- Der.
 New York spots declined 130 points to 1880 cents, but New Orleans spots were lowered only 25 points, to 20 cents.
 Street prices at Conway this morn- ing reached the highest point of the season, when p 1-2 to 23 IA cents was beinb paid for middling to strict middling upland cotton. Following the sharp declines in the big markets however, this afternoons prices were considerably lower, with P cents as about the top.

Alleged Slayer Of
 Brooklyn Dentist
 Threatens Suicide
[Republican A. P. Leased WireJ

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-Upon re- ceipt of a report from Dr. Charles Stoerzer. visiting jail physician. that Mrs. Lillian Raizen, under indictment for the murder of Dr. Abram Click stein, Brooklyn dentist, has manifest ed suicidal tendencies Assistant District Attorney Edward W. Cooper tonight ordered the woman kept un- der strict surveillance. This action followed the application by Mrs. Raj zens counsel earlier in the day for appointment of a commission to in quire into her sanity. Four alienists employed by the defense reported that she was mentally unbalanced now and when the crime was commit ted. If the commission should find her insane, she would be committed to a state institution without facing trial on the charges against her.
 Dr. Stoerzer suggested that the woman be immediately transferred to the psychopatiic ward for her own safety.
