to S points in response to relatively
steady cables. Three more private crop
reports were published. One of which
made the condition of the crop Sal and
the indicated yield lS,026, 900 bales,
while another made the condition 54.5
and the indicated yield 1877 900 bales.
The third, however, placed the condi-
ton at only STA and the indicated
crop 14,4e4.00 bales. and seemed to
Offset the effects of the larger figures.
Trading was moderately active and
the market held fairly steady during
the first half hour. The active months
showed net advances Of about to S
points on covering and trade buying.
Liverpool cables reported that hedging
and covering had been absorbed by
continental and Bombay buying, but
said the demand for cotton cloths In
Manchester was limited.

and Immediately wanted to take

"I don't want to take your mon

Come on, let me bet you, replied
George, who kept insisting that the
money be placed. But the colored
man apparently had a big heart
and the bet was not made. In few

How did you get that informa-

BURGLARS STILL
ACTIVE IN CITY

That petty thieves and burglars
are still active in the city is evi-
denced by numerous reports receiv-
ed by the police from householders
concerning attempts to break into
and enter homes and offices during
the past few days.
Thursday night an attempt was
made to force entry into the rooms
of the Associated Charities in the
Wise Building by prying open the
door. The thieves were evidently
frightened away as number of
keys, a hammer, and pair of
scissors, were found lying on the
floor nearby.
On the same night the office OF
R. B. Romero, in the same build
ing, was entered by way of the tran
som and the place ransacked. In
vestigation proved, however, that
nothing had been taken with the
exception of a bunch of keys of no
value to anyone but the owner.
Mrs. Jennie Brown of Noon Hill
also reported on the same night that
her home had been broken into.
