COTTON LOSES ft FEW POINTS
With (.More Favorable Weather Condi
tions the Market Was Generally
Lower Ciose Seven to
Ten Points Off.
,.v York, May 8. With weather re
,,. , indicating rather more favorable eon
as in the South, the cotton market
v k u'fiierally lower today and while th
;, ;;i tune was steady last prices showed
. ,.; kiss of from 1 to 10 points.
ytif opening was easy at a decline of 12
',, p: points in response to lower, cables
u due. more favorable weather"itt the
t .utnil belt and overnight selling orders
v. bad probably been attracted by the
, r tone of the market late yesterday.
;.p.rt from leading bull interests check
li.o decline around the opening figures,
',; with the official weather forecasts in
,j: .itinir a continuation of unsettled wea
. with showers in many sections of the
!'!. prices worked gradually higher dur-
, the forenoon.
'in her crop positions rallied to within
, cr four poi.ut8 of last night's closing
. V.-es. while the crop recovered practical
! -.11 the early loss, but offerings increas
the advance and the market weak
ai;ain in the afternoon. Much of the
-iiinir was attributed to dome of the big
hu'yers on the break of last week, and there
v i- also considerable pressure from Mein
sources, whieb was supposed to re
rvV: the better central belt weather and
,'iniinisliing apprehensions as to further
,., .ks in the Mississippi levees. Prices
,'.ld about 18 to 19 points net lower on
ti,i decline, with October touching 11:30,
i,im met good support and closed 10 or 11
mints up from the lowest. Leading trade
i .teresdts and up-town operators wiere
.-edited with buying heavily on the after
,)ii break and the subsequent rally, but
the market appeared to be more or less uu-M-ttled
in the last few minutes. The offi
forecasts were for generally fair wea
tir in the Carolinas, Georgia and West
Teas but predicted unsettled conditions
i iid showers elsewhere. Local map read-.
Ms said that barometric conditions point
ed t a day or two of clearing weather in
the South, but with existence of low ba
rometers over various sections of the coun
try ave no immediate promise of any pro-loie-ed
spell of settled weather. Liverpool
attributed the decline there to better wea
ther reports and American selling.

NEW YORK PRODUCE.
STOCKS WERE DOLL ALL OAT
Trading in the Market Was Light and
Professional and for Hours Man
ifested No Definite Trend.
The Copper Report.
New Yorfc, May 8. From start to finish
today" the stock market wan a dull affair.
Trading was light and professional and
for hours the market manifested no defi
nite trend. Aside from some of the lead
ers, particularly Reading, whose course
was somewhat erratic, the movement was
more than ordinarily circumscribed.
The day brought no developments and
witnessed no occurrences of moment, but
the unsettled undertone bespoke a waiting
attitude on the part of the trading public.
The copper producers submitted their
report for April, but the State was of little
importance aside from disclosing a decided
increase in the quantity of metal on hand,
the result, primarily, of a falling off in
foreign demaud. Apart from u sudden
hrenk In Illinois Central, which sold down
to within a fraction of its lowest price
since 1910, and was probably due to dam
ages sustained by the Mississippi floods,
the market showed general improvement
and greater activity in the last hour, al
heit some of its strength lay 1n minor is
sues. Closing prices Indicated a degree of
steadiness, save for Iteamug ana sneei.
The bond market was irregular and nar
row. Wabash fours lost some of yester-
rtnv's rise. Total sales, nar value, aggre
gated $3,019,000. United States government
bonds were unchanged on call. Total sales
stocks, 513,100 shares.

Dress the gratitude of Mrs. J. E. Cox,

erance from an awful fate. "Typhoid
pneumonia had left me with a dread
ful cough," she writes. '"Sometimes
had such awful coughing spells I
thought I would die. I could get no
help from doctor's treatment or other
medicines till I used Dr. King's JNew
Discovery. But I owe my life to this
wonderful remedy for I scarcely cough
at all now." Quick and safe, its tne
most rename ui an w a.uu iuns
medicines. Every bottle guaranteed.

Bad Blood.
Mr. C. J. Christian, of Amer
icus, Ga., had serious blood trouble.
Of his experience he writes: "My
blood got wrong. Every little
scratch made a bad sore. I had
little risings or boils on my neck,
and used several .dollars ..worth of
salves of diffcrent.fcwds without re
lief, receiving no benefit. Mr. Blan
chard of the twice-a-week Press of
this city, recommended I, E. B. P.
I used two bottles" arid am well
sores and boils all gone, only a few
scars being left on my neck and
hands to show how much I suffered.
I cheerfully recommend K. E. B. P.
to all who are suffering from any
kind of pains caused from impure
blood."
