SEW TOHIC. Teli. 28 Conditions were
again mKccl nt tho oiietilng on tho Cotton
Exchange thla morning; and, nlthougli the
early tono vvaa steady with prices 1 point
lower to 3 points higher, a reaction took
place soon nftor tho call. March opened
at an advance of 7 points, but on the next
sailed dropped 8.
Liverpool una a good buyer, but the
demand was auppllecl from virtually all
quarters. Some spot Interests purchased
small a mounts, while others were sellers
The feature of the market, however, was
tho supply coming from ono source, be
lieved to be liquidation by prominent Wall
street houses
The market subsequently stiffened up
to nbout Saturdays closing figures There
seemed to be a little demand from trade
Hources ns welt ns covering of shorts. Hut
New Orleans was slow to follow the
local rally, leading; to apprehensions that
the market there was still under some
pressure from the interior, unu local
prices turned eaBler again, with JIuy
selling off to 11 2B, July to 11.44 and Oc
tober to II 63, or nbout 6 to 7 points net
lower The main factor was the failure
of New Orleans to develop a better tone
and continued fear of scattering spot
liquidation
The break carried March contracts to
11.26c, while the later deliveries made
new low ground for the movement- It
seemed, however, that very few stop or
ders were uncovered and pi Ices steadied
later New Orleans buying orders here
helped the rally which curried the active
months about C to 8 points net higher
In the afternoon There were nlso soma
private reports of a better spot demand
Temperatures were lower In the cot
ton belt this morning and conditions were
mixed, with cloudy weather predominat
ing, There was somp precipitation In the
extreme northwest.

. Police Court Chronicles
Jlen who are fond of rum care very
little for anything sweet, it Is said. A
slight proof of this was uliown In the ex
perience of Nelson Onsen, He groped his
way into the bakery of Leon Newvitch,
on East Ontario street, and ordered a
plate of lemon meringue ice cream
Consulting his menu, the baker learned
that thla was classified In the pie class.
"You mean pie," said tho baker good
naturedly.
-T" repjied Qhsen.
Idn't mean pie at
Which meant that he dldn'
all.
The baker1 paused, somewhat bewildered.
"Ah," ho said Anally, "jou want pine
apple Ice cream."
" !" declared the
ouatomer mora emphatically than ever.
"Now I got It," exclaimed Newvitch:
"you want lemon meringue plo on top of
Ice cream "
"What, pie on top of Ice cream?" Ohseu
managed to gurgle this out with dldlculty.
And he threw a glass on the floor to show
his disgust. The sound of tho crash
seemed to awaken his Indignation anew.
He picked up a heavy ice cream can, fully
four feet high, and tossed It through the
bulk window of the bakery
The baker yelled "Police'" and a cop
hastened to the scene. The policeman ar
rived when Oh,sen was wrestling with a
showcase. He managed to save It and
pulled the customer to the street.
Onsen suddenly started to yell In fear.
He pointed to the sky,
"Ixok. It's a Zeppelin," he shouted, "und
It's coming this way 1"
The cop looked, but he kept tight hold
on Ohsen's collar at Ilia same time. The
Zeppelin proved to be nothing more than
a biff advertising sign on he roof of a
nea.rby building
When the prisoner faeed Magistrate
Wrlgley at the Uelgrade and Clearfield
streets station he said he dldnt know
what lie was doing and coyWut collect
his thoughts.
