PIANO DUSINKSS BOOMING.
Georgo Miller, president of tho F. A.
North Company nnd the Lester Piano
Company. 1308 Chestnut street, says tho
piano and piano-player business Is boom

every Indication of a
long lease on pros

a. report that the
piano business nil

going Into a big com
bluntlon, he snld:
"People either don't

are made with payments distributed over
n number of years, from three to live, or
even longer; and nny combination which
would be mado must take care of these
long-time obligations. Such a combina
tion would menu tho plnclng of securities
on the market representing not only the
stocks of pianos on hand, the values of
the manufacturing ptnnts, but also these
obligations, and I don't think such se
curities, would appeal to the public.
"Everything thnt entered into tl.o con

recently advanced lu price, and Is con

sider how many different materials really

SHARP BREAK IX COTTON;
IIBAVVSALRS OK MARCH
Prices Slumped About 35 Points Be
fore De'cline Wns Checked
NEW YORK, Feb. 17. Increased activ
ity was shown onvthc Cotton Exchange ut
the opening this morning. The early
tone wns atendy, March showing a de
cline of S points, due to liquidation by
spot houses, with the options up to Sep
tember being 1 to 4 points lower nnd later
"positions 1 to 2 points higher.
The early decllno carried old crop posi
tions about 4 to B points net lower. Many
of tho old-crop sellers seemed to be re
liuvlng In laler deliveries. Whllo thero
was buying of March agulnst siiies of
later months by spot houses and offerings
were well enough nbsorbed to steady
prices around 11.85 fur May contracts.
Later, advices from Washington placing
rather a more fuvornble light upon the
submarine situation, seemed to promote
covering and prices milled to within a
point of Inst night's dosing llgures on
March, while later deliveries sold about
1 to B points net higher, with October
relatively firm.
After a comparatively steady early
market, the appearance of selling ordeis
from Wnll street mid wire houses started
n decline which shortly nfter 1 o'clock
hud assumed the proportions 'of a bull
panic. Prices broke several points be
tween sales under tremendous stop loss
liquidation, and not until March had
touched 11.32 and May 11.35, or about 3V(3H
points under tha clo.e of Wednesday,
was there a check to the slump. Then
a wave of shorl covering and demand
from spot houses, caused n rally of 15fi!0
points. New crops were relatively steady,
breaking only about 20 points. There was
nothing In the character of the day's
nows to explain the selling movement,
which was tuken lo reflect general
liquidation of old crop lopg accounts,
and an adjustment of differences between
months lo meet the cost of carrying cot
ton In local warehouses. In mid-afternoon
ithe market nus still feverish and

WHY nttt'GS AltE DEAR.
"It Is a ticklish matter to talk nbout
pikes these days In our business," said
C A. Steele, piirchnslng manager of II.
I. Million! Company, mnnufnctiirlng
chemists, 123 South 1.1th street. "Wc don't
know what prices arc Rolng to be from
one day to another.
"There Is no standard to llx prices,
everything Is 'up In the nlr.' Take ns
nu Instance antipyretic: It Is quoted today
nt $r, a pound, before the war It was
nbout J2.3S. Acetanalid before tho wnr
sold nt 20 cents n pound, today It Is
J1.IS. Potash bromide wns i!9 cents,
now it Is $5,50 ii pound.
"People generally could Imrdly think
of n reason why Norwegian cod liver oil
should go from $19 a batrel bofore tho
war to $100 n barrel today. Hut Ger
many Is hard pushed for lubricating oil
and Is buying the cod liver oil from Nor
way for that purpose.
"Castor oil is practically out of the
market. The cnslor oil bean grows In
India. England Iiuh placed an embargo
on It. 1 understand It Is the best lubrl
ennt for aeroplanes and England docs
not want nny cnslor oil to get Into tho
possession of her enemies.
"In mercurial preparations prices have
gono away tip. Calomel has gone from G5
cents to $3.43 Mercury Itself formerly
brdught $45 a flask, which contained 7G
pounds; now It brings from $300 to $325
n flush. I don't quite understand the rea
son for this, na 11 Is produced iu largo
quantities In thin country, but .Inpan Is
buying cnormuus quantities nnd none can
be had in the West.
"Corrosive sublimate, another mercurial
product, has Jumped from 60 cents to $3
a pound. Opium products have advanced
from $7 to $11 a pound. Thero should bo
largo stocks of opium lu this country. At
the outbreak of the wnr Turkey sent large
quantities to Greece and for a time thnt
country flooded the United States with It,
but lately very llttlo Is coming in, and that
may account for tho Increase in prices.
"Glycerlno was 22 cents but yesterday
was quoted at 51 cents. The demands of
the munition plants take large quantities
of this product. As to the outlook, my
Impression is times will bo worse before
they nre better and naturally I am an op
timist. When the present stocks, which
wero bought at favorable prices, arc de
pleted prices are bound to go much
higher."

AUTOMATIC TYPEWRITER.
An automatic typewriter is to be placed
on the market that will type a letter
without the Intervention of human hands.
A stencil Is cut similar lu nppcaiunce to
n pianola roll nnd this Is inserted lu the
typewriter, a switch Is turned and the
machine electrically writes the letter.
The purpose of the mnchlne is to pro

Police Court Chronicles
A rumor spread through Kensington
that an ulrshlp was approaching. Charlie
Ingram heard tha report. He tilled his
pockets with oranges from a grocery near
Frankford avenue and Huntingdon street,
ami climbed a telegraph pole to get a
good view of the approaching ship.
A crowd gathered and Charlie declared
that he would bring the ciaft to (he
ground once It poked Its pose In the
neighborhood.
Just then some one told Charlie his
"wheels were loose." By way of showing
his disapproval he attacked the crowd
with tho oranges and wounded several
onlookers. Three "cops" on their way to
the Trenton avenue and Dauphin street'
station told Ingram to "cut It." He defied
them until Turnky Dill Tufts happened
alone and pulled him to the ground.
Charlie then attacked the three "cops"
and for a time a battle royal ensued.
In a few moments Charlie surrendered
and was brought before Magistrate Dletz,
He said he realized that he had no right
to Hrlko the law and announced tragi
cally. "I am willing to be shot at sum
rise."
"That woutd not be a, hard task," the
Magistrate declared, "as you were half
shot last night."
Charlie denied that bU enthusiasm was
due to any Internal conditions and argued
lhat he favored prohibition. 'That beinp
the ease." aid Ihu Court, "I want you
to reform the unfortunate at the House
of Correction and I will give you tbre
months to do It. '
