HAGGARD | A J | \ { AT WORLD'S BELIEF
 IN MYSTIC POWE RS
RidicuIes Idea Lord Carnar- von Was Killed by Pha-
 raoh'S Spirit

HASTINGS. England, April 6.-"1f God almight would permit a Pharoah to murder people by magic means thousands of years after his death, thcn, indeed, we are in the hollow of hand of darkness
 It was in such fashion that Sir Rider Haggard. noted author and traveller ridiculed as dangerous nonsense" the theory that Lord Car narvon was the victim of curse, and. warned that there is growing tide of superstition sweeping the world sarpassing even that of the middle ages.
 1Iaggard, who was the first author to introduce "Returned Supirits" as character in popular fictionti stirred an audience of business men he ad- dressed here Friday when he launched into his attack on mystic teachings and denounced the practice of digging up mummies. By impli ation he included Sir Arthur Conan Doyle among those attacked.
 Reports "Nonsensc."
 "All this business about poor Lord Carnorven having been brought to his end by maglc is nonsense flag gard declared. .'It Is not only nom sense. but dangerous nonsense. It is dagerous because it goes to swell the rising tide of superstition which, at the epresent moment. seems to b overflowing the world. Wherever we look, there are new surerstitions and old ones being revived.
 T don't othinl< that even in the warkest time of the Roman empire or in the middle ages there was more superstition than exists at present in parts of Europe and America.
 Do you suppose that God Almighty would permit a pharoah, who was only a man with crown to his head, to murder people by magic thousands of years after his death Or would He permit this pharoah to loose what people in spiritualistiC circles call an mental'-whateNe that means; I take it to mean q devil.
 Tt is incredible, and a Christian men we are not to believe 1t. If that could happen, then let us abandon all hope. for. indeed, We are in the hallow of a hand of darkness"

 DenOunccs Mummy Snatching
 While paying tribute to the work of Earl Carnarvon, who was the first man to enter the tomb of Tutankh- amen. and expressing the hope that an appropriate memorial would he erected to the noted Egyptologist HagEard nevertheless denounced mummy snatching."

ridiculous to say that 1t doesn't mat ter in the case of these people be- cause they died thousands of years ago If 1t is wrong to dot 1t year after death it is wrong now"
 Iaggard said it was quite all right to examine mummies for historical enlightenment, but that after the ex- animation had been concluded the mummies should be given decent burial. At Cairo, he said. he had seen mummies lying naked on table, whereas they should have been re- buried in the sloping chamber of q great pyramid. covered with concrete. and allowed to rest ito the end of time"
 1t was q great reward that Carnar. von should have been the first to en- ter the tomb of Tutankhamen. Hag- gard said in concluding, but it was destined that he should never learn what lay within that shrine"

NEW HIGH PRICE RECORD OF SEASON TOPPED IN WHEAT

CHICAGO, April 6.-New high price records for the season were reached In the wheat market today Unfavorable crop conditions south west and delay to seeding northwest counted as bullish factors. The close was firm, unchanged to 3-4c higher, May s1.21 5-s to s1.21 3-4 and July S1.1S 3-4 to s1.1S 7-S. Corn gained f-Sc to 12c. oats Is and provisions 5e to 7c and 10c.
 Persistent buying in small lots ac- companied the ascent of wheat prices and appeared 10 indicate a broaden ing of speculative interest. Freezing temperature and lack of moisture was reported as hinderng plant growth in parts of the winter crop territory.
 The fact that European purchasing of North American wheat during the last few days has been the largest in many months and that domestic wheat shared to considerable ex- tent in the buying was given much emphasis on the bull side. North American export sales for two days were estimated as high as 5,OO0, 0oo bushels. On the other hand. with the Liverpool market today closing at decl1ne. some disposition toward realizing sales were shown here, es- pecially in the May delivery. which finished exactly at the same figures as~24 hours before.
 Corn advanced to new high price records for the season. Offerings were scarce and shipping sales here amounted to nearly 300, 600 bushels chiefly to exporters. oats, although dull, sympathized with the action of corn and wheat.
 Downturns in the value of hogs weakened the provision market.

BIRMINGHAM. April 6.-Liverpool failed to maintain it's strength and came over A American points on May and July and Is on October lower than duo with sales of 5000 bales against 12.0oo yester
 day but an advance noted in their middlings. Manchester cabled that figures on consumption and stocks very bullish. more activity in spots and general feeling optimistic. Our markets opened 20 points under Thursdays close in sympathy with Liverpool, but showed no weakness during the session, however, the market was a seesawing affair, and finally ended Sthe day at 30-point loss under the previous close. Spots were generally unchanged to 30 points lower with very little reports as to demand from the southern points. To-
 days decline in futures was taken as, natural one. The volume of business was small and much of the trading profes- sional. There was very little of interest in the news. The weather map more fav
 orable, but the forecast for the western belt was not so good. Week end figures were bulish, mill takings 50. 900 above last year. southern consumption SC, 900 against 15,000. Cotton Is likely to be trading proposition awaiting spot and new crop developments. Sales of October on bulges seem profitable.-S. X. Stewart & Co.
