 MORE THAN HUNDRED

With headquarters at Bjorka Isl and. in Sitka Sound, native sealers have captured more than one hun dred fur seals lately. according to George Maud, captain 1.-the Bureau of Fisheries Boat Murre who recent ly visited the scene Of the hunt on a tour of inspection.
 Natives are the only ones allowed to catch fur seals in Alaskan waters and they are allowed only to use spears in getting them They hunt from their small boats and canoes and mostly get close to the animals when they are sleeping on the sur face of the water.
 The season for hunting seals is now closed and Captain Maud will go to Biorka Island next Monday 10 authenticate tre skins so t&2t he can certify that they were caught in legal manner by natives.
 Under normal conditions the catch of fur seals would represent con siderable amount of money hu' it is said that the market for them at this time is exceedingly poor and that the hunters will not realize q large profit from the sale.

The men worked like the proverbial beav- CT and even the women took a hand in yielding the axe and hatchet. While no cherry trees were felled, a goodly number of forest trees were felled and the next party visiting the camping place will see the result of the labor done this week.

The international Paper Company
announced yesterday reduction in
newsprint prices from $110 to sos a
ton on carload lots for deliveries dur
ing the third quarter of 1921. it was
said that on newsprint sold a year in
advance on contract adjustments would
be made.
This is the second reduction an
nounced by the international Paper
Company this year. First quarter
quotations were cut in the second
quarter to s11O. The price for the
first quarter was also the high of
1920. Prices are now back to SIS above
what they were in the first quarter of
1920. P. T. Dodge, president, stated
that the company had decided to re-
duce prices for the third quarter de-
spite indications that costs will be
higher than they are at present. Wages
now, he said. are 21h times the 1914
level and costs are still high because
many materials used in the manufac-
ture of newsprint were contracted for

Virginia Trade Slower
Decline of Is Per Cent From
March to April

Wholesale trade in the Fifth Federal
Reserve district during April, accord
ing to the June bulletin issued by the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond,
Va, averaged 1853 per cent less than
that of March. and was 353 per cent
below that of April, 1920. At the same
time retail sales declined 81 per cent
from March and were within z per
cent of as great as in April, 1920.
In wholesale trade all lines except
furniture showed drop in sales as
compared to March. Furniture, how
ever, showed an increase in sales COM
pared to March of 1853 per cent.
For the first time in several years"
says the banks bulletin, "retail trade,
| as indicated by reports sent US by
twenty five department and general
stores in the district, was less in dol
lar value during April than business
done during the corresponding month
OF the previous year, the decrease
amounting to seven-tenths of l per
cent Stores in Richmond, Washington
and miscellaneous cities reported in
creases, but Baltimore averaged a 69
per cent decrease, which brought the
average for the entire district below
the April, 1920, record. 1t should be
borne in mind, however, that a small
loss iii dollar value of business done
does not indicate loss in actual
volume of units sold, because present
retail prices are considerably lower
than they were year ago. In total
sales from January l through April 80,
1921. the district is 3.6 per cent ahead
OF total sales made by the same stores
during the first four months of 1890"

Cotton Declines
On Liquidation
I'm Quiet Trading
Slight Demand Supplied by
Southern Offerings and
Prices Slump When Wall
Street and Wes,erners Sell

There was further liquidation at
tributed chiefly to tired" Wall Street
longs in the cotton market yesterday,
and an opening advance was followed
by rather sharp declines. October
contracts, for instance, sold off to
1903, or 19 points net lower, making
new low ground for the movement and
a decline of nearly 90 points from the
high price touched on the bullish
private crop reports of late last month,
October closed at 1915, with the tone
steady at net decline of to II
points.
Reports that fresh conferences were to
be held In both the coal mining dispute
and the Lancashire labor troubles and
higher late cables from Liverpool, ac-
counted for opening advances The mar
ket then turned easier under Wall Street
and Western liquidation, with active
months ceiling II to 10 points net lower
before the end of the morning,
Except for the first hour there was
little or no Southern selling reported and
the bulk Of the pressure was supposed to
represent liquidation of long lines pur-
chased on the advances Of late last
month Holders of these contracts were
supposed to have been disappointed by the
failure OF bulish crop figures to stimu-
late fresh buying, and liquidation for this
reason was promoted by favorable weather
in tlle South and apprehension that any
expansion of trade will be delayed by con
tinued labor troubles.
Southern spot markets officially
ported were unchanged at so points lower,
with quotations for middling cotton rang
ing from 1850 up to about lis at the
active centers, The local market for spot
cotton was quiet and 3 points lower at
1850 for middlngi no sales were reported.

Decline i'm Wheat
After Early Rise;
Changes Feverisl1
Some Switching to Septem-
her; Better Crop Reports
Induce Selling; Larger
Yield in Kansas Reported

CHICAGO, June 6.-Wheat averaged
lower in price to-day, chiefly owing to
depression of foreign exchange, with
July $3.50 to $1.30A and September
Sligo to $116M. Corn gained 1s to
hc. Oats lost n to &c. Provisions
finished unchanged to SOC lower.
Unsettlng effects OF the break in for
eign exchange rates was apparent through
out the day in the wheat market although
rallies took place shortly after the open
ing and just before the close. The first
upturn was due to liberal buying the
part OF big firm that was in receipt of
bullish crop advices from Nebraska. Crop
reports from Kansas and Oklahoma. how
ever. were bearish, and the market turned
downward again. Influenced by assertions
that fresh export business was very slow.
On the other hand. word became current
near the end OF the session that 500, 900
bushels had been sold for shipment to
Europe. This news led to something of a
bulge in the last fifteen minutes, but failed
to wipe out entirely the nervousness due to
the furry in exchange. Decrease of the
visible supply to less than 5000. 600 bush
els attracted but little notice. Spreaders
sold July and bought September.
Despite big receipts corn was firm as q
result of smalness of rural offerings.
Favorable crop reports eased the oats
market.
Provisions tended to sag in line with hog
values.
