FLOWER GARDEN Is
ENTERED BY THIEVES

A resident on North Baylen street
reported yesterday that someone had
entered her flower garden during We'd
nesday night and had stolen some of
the choicest flowers. The flowers at
this home are some Of the most beau
tiful in the city and, the owner takes
a just pride in them. For someone to
take advantage of the dark to per-
niciously prey upon them is in the
owners estimation nothing short of
vandalism. There is law protecting
these beauty spots of the city and any
one who is caught win be subjected
to the full penalty.

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, April 6.-Early adj
vances in the cotton market on east
ern belt rain reports were followed by
reactions which seemed largely the
result of near month liquidation. May
contracts sold off from 1901 to 1872
and closed at 1851 or ten points net
lower. New crop positions were rela-
lively firm but after selling at 17.1S,
early October eased off to 1903 and
closed at 17.1o. The general market
II points higher.
The opening was steady at de-
cline OF one point on May but gen
orally unchanged to 8 points higher,
with the market becoming firm right
after the call on the unsettling weather
news and approximations of 8, late start
with the new crop in nearly all sections
of the belt.
Buying on this idea was encouraged
by the early strength of the grain
and stock markets and before the end
of the morning active positions sold
-10l4to II points net higher July
touching 1888. Realizing sales In
creased around the Is cent level for
May and above II for December, while
demand failed to broaden much and
the market was rather unsettled dur
ing the afternoon.
General business was quiet during
the entire day and the feature on the
afternoon decline was the reversal of
May-July stradd1es by some OF the
larger trade interests who sold the
spring month and bought the SUM
mer position. This was supposed to
represent reduction in May hold
ings preparatory to the first notice
day toward the end of the month, and
evidently disturbed some OF the scat
tering May longs, who sold out their
near month contract, replacing by
purchases Of new crop months in some
instances.
Old crop deliveries sold three to
10 points net lower on the break while
the new crop held around to a few
points above last nights closing quo
tations. While there was criticism
of the rains reported in the south,
the temperatures were considered more
favorable and some traders are in
clined to doubt whether the present
wet weather or even the overflows in
the southwest viii react unfaxorably
on the final crop.
