COTTON ADVANCES
IN BRIEF TRADING
Market Closes Firm After
Sharp Rallies Follow an
Early Decline.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, September 15.--De
ciines from an opening advance were
followed by rather sharp rallies in
the cotton market today. After sell
ing at 27.59 at the start December
broke to 2732, but closed at 1880,
| with tho general market closing firm
at net advances Of II TO 25 points.
The market opened steady at an ad-
vance of 81 TO 25 points, owing 1.-THE
lcontinued strength of Liverpool and
bullish Manchester trade advices. Oc-
tober sold at 27.93 and January at
1918 during the first few minutes on
trade buying and covering. but this
advance to approximately the 2s-cent
level again brought in realizing. Some
scattered southern hedging was also
reported, and the market worked off
during the middle Of the morning
At $3.50 for October and $3.50 for jan
uary, or about TO points net lower
demand appeared to increase and
| prices turned upward late in the
morning on covering for over the
week end and commission house buy
! ing
| The latter was accompanied by re-
ports that there was a large amount
| of cotton on shipboGrd al Galveston
awaiting clearance, which naturally
| pointed TO larger exports and tended
to emphasize the small stocks Of
American cotton abroad in connection
with the increasing trade reported in
Lancashire. October closed at 2790
and january at 27.2O. or about 80
points up from the lowest, Private
cables received from Liverpool this
morning said the market there was
| easier at the opening because of In
creased hedge selling. but had rallied
on q moderate demand from Manches-
| ter.
The unsettled tone in the stock mar
ket probably accounted for some of
/ the selling Of cotton here during the
middle of the morning, but much Of
the business was attributed TO the
/ evening up Of commitments for over
/ the week end. Sales of print cloths in
the Fall River market for the week
were estimated at about 10000

The first bout on the card was a
IS minute wrestling go, between Doro

These little girls show up well in their
work on the mat and the bout wa
greatly appreciated.
Giles and Scholes staged a fast
wrestling bout, and McGinnis and
Schwoob also showed up to good ad'
vantage and all of the youngsters
showed much pep and a knowledge OF
the game beyond their years.
Buster Larson and Carl Armstrong
put on a fast bout to windup the
wrestling part of the Card.
Fred and Bill Carlow next boxed
four fast rounds that were a delight
to the crowd.
Dan Ingraham and Stanley Russell
next put on four rounds of boxing and
showed up well as amateurs.
The main boxing bout was a sur

Freak Weather Pre-

dicted by scientists appears to have
arrived. While ice was forming at
the ranches up the South Fork last
week and snow falling in the noun
tains, with Park tourists wearing
overcoats and blue-nosed with cold
the East was suffering under a tor
rid wave which killed 60 persons, sent
scores to the hospital and drove peo-
pie to sleeping in the parks and on
the beaches for relief.
The rainfall in this immediate sec
ton is very unusual and n of the
curious things about II is its local
character. The daily downpours have
reached south no further than Oregon
Coulee and Sheets Flat and the Low

had a drop of rain since early in June

Found Moon In Two
Dogs Pannier:
Is Astonished

On Monday afternoon W. S. Wild
dous and 1.-TWO Dog" johnson we're
arrested at the Keystone Barn on
warrants charging the possession OF
moonshine liquor.
The search was conducted by Sher-
If LOOMS and deputies, and their Ell
forts were rewarded by the flnding
of numerous empty bottles cached IN
the stalls and managers of the stable
and a small quantity of liquor n a
pannierl belonging to Johnson, who
however, disclaims knowledge or
ownership of the liquor.
At a hearing before Judge Marston
both men pied not guilty and were
held for trial at the next term OF dis
trict court, under bonds fixed at
100000 each.
Roth Widdous and Johanson promp-
tly furnished the required bonds.
, 1923-06-27

In Cody, the two deputies and the
prosecuting attorney were jubilant
over their achievement, the latter
chortling over the fact that he had
known where the cache was while
Loomis had not, "A little bird he said,'
had come to his office and told him.
The little bird" is generally believed
to be a loud-mouthed, vulgar-tongued
woman who has been accused the past
winter of taking advantage of her
employment in public places to make
a little easy money acting as stool
pigeon for the prosecuting attorneys
office.
At any rate, Upton and McGonagle
were taken out to the cache by Cop
pert and left there, with orders to ar
rest the owner or owners should they
appear.
Early in the evening when the Nash
ear which they were known to be
driving stopped near the cache and
shortly afterward started toward
Cody, the deputies called for them to
halt and stick them up
Instead of obeying, Carey stepped

ton and McGonagle then cut loose
with their high power rifles and shot
them from the side of the road as
they passed, approximately fifty feet,
sending a fusilade of bullets after
them.
The car was seen to werve to the
side of the road but vas quickly
righted and gathered speed again as
it continued toward Cody.
Upton and McGonagle confident
they had wounded one of the men,
then started on foot toward town
where they were overtaken by a pass
ing m~otorist and brought in.
Goppert was notified and went to
the cache where he brought in about
40 gallons of liquor, a 20 gallon key
and a metal %container which held
some 20 gallons.

GREYBULL MANS KILLEDB BY
CODYPROH|BTION OFFICERS;
COMPANION BADLY WOUNDED
Sentiment Strong Against Action Of Deputies-
Shooting Unnecessary, Opinion-Fired At so
Feet With High Power Rifles

1t looks to the people of this locali-
ty as if human life was getting pretty
cheap when any person with a nickel
star pinned on him can go out and,
shoot and kill in the name of law and
order without a warrant, for an of
Tense which, at most, is only a mis-
demeanor.
This was the feeling prevailing in
Cody when it became known on Tues
day morning that Harry Upton and
the court house janitor, J.. T. Nc
Gonagle had shot and killed George
c"Scotty') Sherrin of Greybull and
shattered the leg of A. E. Carey of
the same place upon the suspicion
that they were transporting liquor.
Concealed in the creek bed of Cot
tonwood, where the cache was also
located, about 7.30 on Monday wen
ing these two deputized prohibition
sleuths shot at the men with high
power rifles, one an army gun and the
other a Winchester, at fifty feet.
Sherrin was shot through the heart
and died instantly. Carey was hit in
the thigh and the X-Ray shows 80
pieces of hair and cloth shot into the
flesh. In this condition he drove
clear to Greybull, a distance of 60
miles, with his companion soaking in
his own blood on the floor of the car
where he slid as he died.
Carey, who was driving, was hit
first and as Sherrin got up to take
the wheel a second bullet struck him
in the side and passed on through his
heart and body.
Sheriff Loomis and his deputy,
Earl Pulley, who had been out on a
trip and are said to have known moth
ing of this business engineered by the
prosecuting attorney, E. j.. Goppert,
jumped into a car and went to Grey
bull where they found Carey at home,
also the bullet-riddled Nash a bear
ing mute testimony to the truth of
the boasts of the courthouse janitor,
that he had shot sixteen shots into it.

FORKED BUNCH OF MONTANA
RIDERS, indian and White,
HEADED FOR THE STAMPEDE
Coming to Take Our Money, Report-Prizes To-
tai $3,OOO-Biggest Crowd Cody Ever
Saw Assured, July 3, a, 5th

Cody must prepare for a larger
crowd than last year.. The hotels can
make no more reservations, so all of
those with an extra room will confer
a favor by leaving their names at the
1rma or with R. J.. McGinnis at the
Information Bureau next to the Cody
Hotel.
No orders for reserved seats will
receive attention unless accompanied
by checks. The boxes will be auction
ed off at the Irma on Monday even
ing.
Only those on horseback will be al
lowed inside the arena at the SIAM
pede Grounds, and we wish to an
nounce in advance that positively no
one will be allowed to roost on the
corrals and the fence. 1t worries the
horses and is a nuisance. Nor will
anyone be permitted to bring pop
bottles across the track. Since people
insist upon breaking them it is nee
essary to make this rule.
The parade will start from Wolf
vile at Las instead of / o'clock, as
formerly, and the first ace will be
called as near 2 o'clock as possible.
There will be no delays this year
that can be avoided, and if horses and
riders are not ready the event will go
on without them or be passed up.
In the evening Wolfville will be
headquarters for the Stampede folk
with the Eagles Orchestra of Billings
furnishing the music, and all kinds of
entertainment for those who do not
dance. The Red Lodge boys will play
at the pavilion across from the Irma.
Both floors have been repaired and
sanded and put in the best of condi-
ton.
The prizes and purses this year to-
tai more han $4,000 and the STAN
pede committee has spared no effort
to make this celebration the biggest
one yet, the best and most thrilling
Wild West that a little town ever saw.
