MARKET TALK.
Some Interesting Gossip About Cot
ton and Stocks.
By Wire to Howell & Dodsworth.
"New York, May 12. C. W. Lee &
Co. say: If it were not for the posi
tion of cotton itself we would be in
clined to regard today's sensational ad
vance as the probable culmination of
an upward movement. After a period
of rather sensational advances, the
market usually ends with just such a
.scene as took place on the floor this
morning. That is when August bump
ed from 20 points or more and then
slid off about 15. But with New Or
leans in a state of demorilization and
spot cotton there at 11 cents a pound
and July at about 12 cents a pound,
with Liverpool about as demoralized as
New Orleans and the trade unable to
satisfy themselves as to what the next
change of the wheel will bring forth, it
is utterly impossible to see the events
in cotton circles. The feature today
was the rather heavy selling of Phila
delphia interests particularly in Au
gust. That is to be satisfied with that
interest sold reams of August from
10.20 to 10.05. It will be remembered
that this house took some 30,000 bales
of May cotton delivered on contracts
early in he month. The selling today
is doubtless in the nature of a hedge
against the spot takings. Of course
the market was a wild one from start
to finish "with the running in of shorts
as was to be expected under the cir
cumstances. It is simply fool-hardy
to short cotton at the present time
though there is a prevailing impres
sion that Mr. Sully is gradually get
ting out of his May cotton. We trust
he is, and that we will not be compell
ed to go through a squeeze of more ex
tended duration as a corner at this
time would disturb all markets to an
even greater extent than the disturb
ances at present. We continue to be
lieve in the advisability of letting the
summer months alone and buying Oct.
cotton on every opportunity afforded
by a recession in price.
STOCKS.
New York, May 12. A good tone
characterized the trading in today'a
market. Bullish sentiment was in
creased by the good government crop
report which showed that the stories
of damage had been exaggerated.
While traders watched the tendency of
Foreign Exchange not so much appre
hension was manifested in regard to
gold exports. There was evidence of
Standard Oil buying in the market in
, addition to the purchases by Gould
representatives showing that the two
interests are working together. There
was considerable irregularity in cer
tain departments. Pennsylvania was
weak and Metropolitan did not show
any recuperative powers. Gold export
engagements reduced the gain of the
banks from the Sub-Treasury since last
Friday to $177,000. St. Paul is being
tipped for a rise and if it should occur
the going market would be further
strengthened. A firmer tendency was
noted in time money, although rates
on call remained easy. The decline in
New Haven stock is attributed more to
investment selling than anything else.
We believe American Smelting is ready
for a rise, and there are tips out to buy
Rubber Goods. Missouri Pacific should
be bought on re-actions, likewise Wa
bash preferred. As this is a profes
sional market largely ruled by" flour
operations, traders will find it 'advis
able to take reasonable returns.
At this writing the outlook favors
improvement during the week.
The market closed dull and weak.
Sales, stocks, 352,900 shares.
Expelled Priests Go To Mexico.
New York. May 12. On the Spanish
steamer. Manuel Calvo, in today from
Spanish ports, was a number of priests
expelled from France under the asso
ciation law. They are going to Mexico
to act as instructors in a school.
Scissorgraphs.
Blibson "I understand that South
American general has resolved to sell
his life dearly." Blibson "Yes; he
wants ten dollars for the library edi
tion." "Judge."
Mayme "I had seventeen offers of
marriage this winter" Edyth "Arn't
you afraid the fellow' will get. discour
aged and quit proposing?" Chicago
"Daily News."
"I suppose," said he, "it would be
useless for me to ask you to be my

that's your style of going about it."
Chicago "Record-Herald."
"Mr. Tiffin is awfully attentive to
that rich maiden aunt of his. Haven't

coalless furnace at our house all win

NO SUBSTITUTE WANTED.
No! I did not ask for a bottle any
cheaper, or twice as large, or one
made by yourselves. I did ask for and
will not have any substitute for Perry
Davis Painkiller; I have used it, my
father used it and I would not be sur
prised if my grandparents did so, too;
there is no imitation that can equal it.
That I am sure of for stomach ache.
