COT TON RULES
SHADE LOWER.

NEW YORK, May 81 G.N.S0.
The cotton market was little in
fluenced by the spectacular ad-
vance in wheat today, and futures
were inclined to rule a shade
lower through most of the fore
noon, although well above early
lows.
Initial quotations showed losses
Of from five to seven points and
were occasioned by considerable
sales by mills, occasioned by the
threat of a strike arising from the
curtailment order. AS q rule, how
ever, there was no change in the
character Of the trading to differ
entiate it from other recent open
ings.
The Far East and the Cont
mental trade continued to absorb
limited offerings from the South
and scattered liquidation on a
fairly close Scale-down basis. Some
buying came in on appearance of
heavy rains in Georgia and the
Carolinas, which were considered
detrimental to the crop, particu.
larly if continued longer. A dozen
stations in Georgia had rains of
an inch to over five and one-half
inches, and six in the Carolinas
rains Of similar extent. Elsewhere
weather was favorable for the cot
ton crop.
Late in the forenoon quotations
were approximately on a par with
previous closings, with July off /
at 11.43, October unchanged at
11.64, and December off / at 11.75.,

ESTIMATED
By. ROBERT s. THORNBUEGH

By ROBERT 8. THORNBUkGH
Closing the eleventh month
Of the greatest spending year in
peace-time history, the Govern
ment today apparently was
steered for q deficit around 1000
millions dollars, figures at the
Treasury disclosed.
At present rates total receipts
Tor the IL months win amount
to about $2,929, ,0OO, 900, an ex-
penditure Of $6,859, 900, 900. There
was possibility that expendi-
lures would show some gain in
June as compared with May,
while receipts should be some
what larger. -
Probable receipts for the year
were estimated as follows:
IneoHss tSr .ssSe, 900. 900 s7Ae.COO.OOO
Miscellaneous
internal
Processing tax. 42O, 600 900 -- --------1-
Customs ......&S1S.7I4.OO $3.50, ,7A7. 900
Receipts for last year amounted
to $2,015.731,0 900 and expenditures
$3,S65, 5,9i5,000.
Below Budget
President Roosevelt's budg t
message estimated expenditures
Of ,$1l, ,OS4. .O0O, 900 and a deficit Of
$7,309, ,OO0, 900 not including trans
actions in the public debt.
As Q result Of slowing the an
ticipated expenditures this year it
is. believed governmental outlays
the first six months Of the 1885
year will be increased unless sub
stsntial increases in business &C.
tivity makes such q course un-
necessary
Present figures indicate the pub
lie debt June 80 will amount to
$26, SOC, 900 900, approximately
equal to the peak Of August 81,
1919, as compared with $22, $685.
1000 q year earlier.
Gold Stocks Rise
Gold stocks May 26 amounted
to, $7,771,615,957 as compared
with $7,O1S,263,9 ,925. The increase
was due to imports and the ac-
QUESTION Of newly mined and
scrap gold by the Treasury.
Profits on gold, as q result Of
the revaluation of the gold dol
lar were $2.S0S, $4,000 February
/, the initial profit, and $2,S11,-
126,369 May 26.
silver bullion, in possession of
the Treasury increased from $751;
6ST,l13 February / to $44,537 ,669
May 20. The Treasury Is now
purchasing newly mined silver
under executive order.
Both gold and silver will in
crease gradually to June 80, al
though acquisition of these
metals by the Treasury was so
irregular as to make difficult &C
curate estimates as to final
figures.

CHAPTER XII

For Stone. the next few weeks were
among the happiest of his life so far.
AT last he was among friends and not
the least of his pleasures was the
anticipation of Smif's surprise when she
arrived at Lovelylea to find the situation
so completely altered His early contacts
were. naturally enough. with the men
of the countryside. and SO 1t hap
pened. as Sniff had hoped, thar he did
not hear of her first visit to Culthorpe.
Not quite so soon as she had expect
ed she returned there and was well
coined with acclaim by it's inmates.
Cousin Nab was especially delighted
to have her back. AS an enthusiastic
matchmaker she was eager to see the
first meeting between Stone and Sniff
in order to draw her own conclusions.
1t Is sure that If Sniff had fathomed
Cousin Mab's schemes she would have
taken herself off at once.
AS II was, without word to any
one, she had horse saddled the
morning after her return and rode off
alone to Lovelylea. When she entered
the grounds and walked her mount
up the winding drive. her heart almost
stood still. Nothing here was changed,
really And. strange to say. 1t had
not grown smaller, as places seen last
in childhood are so apt to do.
The house. tall-pillared and spacious.
stood on a rise Of ground scarcely high
enough to deserve the name of hill.
yet giving II command Of all the sur
rounding country. At sight OF it. the
suspense was over, her heart resumed
it's beat. her blood seemed to sing
through her veins. For her, the old
place was as it had always been.
"And it's mine." she said under her
breath; "at last all this loneliness is
all my own. What more could I want
in the world than this?"
