Cotton Market Opinions

J. S. Bache & Co.: There does not seem
to be particularly incentive for speculation
in cotton except as an investment proposition
in the purchase of new crop months.
Munds, Winslow Co.: Cotton at present is
again in state of deadlock but the resist
ance to the good weather and unfayorable
trade news is more impressive than its fail
ure to advance.
Thomson & McKinnon: We regard a mod
crate recession as likely following improved
weather.
A. A, Housman & Co.: We see no change
in the waiting attitude and would await some
further market incentive before making new
mitments in cotton.
Lamborn & Co.: After the holidays many
things can happepn to put new life into
trading. Among these, the New England
strike seems close to settlement, spot de-
mand from Europe may increase and our
home demand revised.
Pynchon & Co.: 1t may prove to be wise
to await developments over the weekend for
further light on the situation at Genoa and
in a domestic sense the weather crop condi-
TONS
Hutton & Co.: On the best informa ton
that we can obtain between $4,000 and 10000
bales of cotton will be delivered on contract
from the south. We understand a good part
of it is already on the way.
Hayden, Stone: We do not expect any
material change for time being, but on any
good break from this level favor purchases
of new crop positions, preferably October.
S. B. Chafin: We would suggest new
crop purchases during fresh weak periods
and then only for moderate profits for the
present.
Hirsch, Lilienthal: We look for little
change either way, but would buy on reces-

With Beating Girl

PENSACOLA, Fla, April IA
John Duncan, twenty-three, resid-
ing at Ferry Pass, seven miles west
of this city, is in the county Jail on
charges of assault, following an affi-
davit made out by Martha Afford,
seventeen, who asserts Duncan is
the person who beat her into insensi-
bility recently when she refused to
allow him to call on her at her
home.
Two witnesses were found, accord
ing to police, who swear they saw
Duncan following the girl short
time before she was picked up in
the road unconscious. Upon being
brought to her senses, she at once
told that Duncan had beaten her,
and the sheriff's Office was notified.
Duncan refuses to make any
statement. Both families are prom
inent in their respective neighbor-
hoods.

Chickens Quickly
Sold in GAINESVILLE

GAINESVILLE, Ca, April 13.-
The fifth golden rule sale, by the
GAINESVILLE Advertising club con-
Quoted Monday was decidedly the
biggest success yet scored and all
the members are highly enthusiastic
over the results.
One result was the sale of small
carload of chickens brought in from
Lamar county farms with only a
few days notice. A Philadelphia
firm had a representative on the
ground and paid the cash for every
chicken offered, the result being
very satisfactory to the poultry
growers of the county. The move
ment was started late last week by
County Agent Cliett, Vocational
Agent Drexell and Secretary D. L..
Anderson, of the Lamar Board of
Trade. The people who brought in
the chickens have promised to en-
ter the industry on much larger
scale and it is expected to develop
rapidly, promising a fine source of
income. Two thousand five hundred
or three thousand dollars were turn
ed into trading channels today by
the chicken sale. All the merchants
report a largely increased business

Huge Shark Caught
In Seattle Harbor

SEATTLE, Wash.-Basking after
6 fist of salmon and herring, a 700
pound shark, the largest ever seen
on the North Pacific, was shot and
killed by a waterfront policeman.
The shark met it's doom when it
swan lazily into a tang1e Of piling

came fastened between two supports
and he was flashing the water into
foam when the patrolmdn hove in
sight.
A crew from the United States
coast guard cutter, Nnalga, moored
near, rugged up a derrick and hauled
the shark to the wharf, where it was
officially weighed and measured. The
huge fish was eleven feet six inches
III length with a tail three feet
broad.
The broad tailed fish is sleeper,
or mud shark, and was dispossessed
of a barrel and a half of salmon
and herring. 1t has a mouth a foot
wide, but could not bite or swallow
man because the teeth are formed
somewhat like those of a beluga
whale. Enough leather can be tan

GRAIN

| CHICAGO, April 13.-There was consid-
! the session today and the local crowd gen
| orally were caught on the Improbable side
! on every one of the big swings. The sharp
rise at the opening was due almost entire
| ly to covering by overnight shorts be-
| cause Of the lower temperatures, higher
| cables and reports of flood damage. Aft
er the first hour the market reacted when
locals were prompted to replace their short
lines because of Allan Logan's estimate of
the Kansas crop at approximately 1913, 000,-
900 bushels based on present conditions.
Shortly before midday the shorts were run
by a report that France had taken, four
cargoes of wheat on passage and that Eng
land was a good buyer of wheat. Mills took
considerable wheat overnight out of Mani
towoc, sales of $4,000 bushels being report
ed. Primary receipts were heavier. West
ern markets offered wheat to local cash
men and 5000 bushels were bought from
Omaha.
Wheat closed Sc to 3Ac higher on shorts
covering. May, S1.33%Rfl1 "a; July, 81. 31s
@1.33as; September, $1.18A.
Corn was quiet and prices were affected
was the transferring of hedges from May
to July at Sac difference. Domestic ship
ping sales wefe light. Local shippers are
anxious to dispose of corn afloat to avoid
rehandling~ charges but the only inquiry
from exporters is for last half of June
shipment elf. Montreal.
Corn closed sc to 7sc higher; May, 50@
501sc; July, 634s @6SAc; September, 661s a
66Ac.
Trade in oats was light and the fluctu-
ations We're narrow. Changing again con-
stituted the bulk of the trading. Cash oats
demand broader and shipping sales of TO-
900 bushels were reported.
Oats Csc to 5sc higher; May, 371A @37sc;
July, 403sc; September, 42A @42Bc.
Provisions easy in tone. Smaller pack
ers were hedging while commission houses
bought. There were 100000 pounds of lard
delivered on April contracts.
