COTTON GOB WILD. ! 1 ' " i # j Sensational Development During the Trading Monday ; HEAVY BUYING ALL DAY LONG May Cotton .Soared to the highest , I'oint of the Season - No Prohptf^t of a Break. Now York, Special. ? Tho wildcat i excitement in cotton t)i Ih season oc- i currod when an enormous movement was started by an unexpected advance 1 of 11 to 11 points In Liverpool, at- 1 tended by heavy talcs of spot cotton i In the English markets. Tho local i market responded with an advance of 15 to 24 points on tho more active j months, new high rc<ordn In all cas?.i ; being made, Th<?l>nll clique realized heavily in order to avert a bear panic, I which at one time appeared Inevit able. The local advance was acceler- ' atefl hy sensational reports from Now Oilcans, which made an advance of 37 points .on July. A reaction of 10 to 14 points followed continued sell ing by bull clique at thlr point, j whereupon tho nfnrket became more i pacific. The heaviest transactions re- I corded this season during the same | time were rt p6rt?:| Monday. Towards noon the market became ! lu.is active, it having become apparent ' that tho hull party was not disposed I to foi\e the situation. Public opera- j tlons wer? not an active factor, owing to the abnormal conditions now gov- : i ornlg the lluctuatloiis of prices. There was, howc-v?w\ some selling fpr short account a#' to the now crop positions on the'fitvorable ahov.Ing made by the weather In the eotlon belt and tho j generally flattering character of tho ; advices now current. ? During the afternoon there was an actlvo upward movement. There was . gosrlp pointing t'O a largo I'hiladcl phla house us being i:hort of July and August, several times greater than their spot holdings, or any amount of cotton possibly available for delivery before the next crop begins to move ! In selling:' quant lUei. The afternoon ! market was an exeitabK> one. A scram ble carried May to 1 1 . 10. July 10.09, | August ia.34, Oc toiler g.91*, and He- ; i comber ii.i.5. Tlu r.e figures represent an advance of from 15 to o"J points over Saturday's closing. in cotton trading; prices covered a range of a dollar a bale in this mar- I ket from Saturday's closing quota- j ? fion.:, and Rl.f.O to $2 n bale In New*. ; Orleans. I'riccs soared at t ho com- < mcnccment of business, going up by icajfrt and bounds on trading, 20 to 2'> points here, and 30 to 40 points in N'ew Orleans. The Liverpool markets 1 were almost equally excited. Thero spot cotton advanced 10 points, or equivalent to $1 per bale, in oiu* flue ' t nations to the basis of IS pence per , pound for middling, which is equiva lent to 11.00 in our market. At all points previous higher records for | cotton options and also spot cotton on tills season's eron were siirnassed. Spot cotton herp Is held at about J 1.1) cen 1.3 per pound, and 10.75 at New Or leans. against S?.75 last year There has not. been anything like the equivalent of theec* high prices dnce the last week In January, 1901, when option and spot cotton in this nuu;!<"t was forced u to 12 cents per pound. That was the highest record for cotton since 1*-90, when It sold in January of that year In this market at i 12.75 cents, and ahijuit 7 pence per pound at Liverpool, after a prolonged < session of hull speculation. The slioits In the May option hero wore' practically all driven In last week, except spot dealers, who In- j tend to make good their deliveries. ' The option will soon expire. The j Block of cotton hero of contract grade, ! of which there were only 32,000 hales j a month ago, has gradually been in- i creased to about 80,000 bales through | the recent steady advance in prices attracting cotton here. Almost every broker was loaded with buying ordors .whop the market ; opened and thero was a ? great roar i when trading begau. May sold as J high as 11.20 In the afternoon, July,; which closed at 10.40, was bid up to j 10.50 before there were any sale.-*, j Then tho transactions were on an j enormous scale, ranging from that ' price down to 10.45 to 10.49, and then ! there was a break to 10.41. The An- | gust option, which closed at 9.97, j started at 10.20 and 10.21 and was as heavily traded In as July, while tho j September option of next year's crop, whluii has only just been planted and t which closed at 0.28. opened 14 points higher at 9.42 and sold up to 9.14 and i then broke 10 points and afterwards rallied to 9.40. These throo months, July. August and September, were those which were most heavily dealt . In. i Cleveland Sends Check. Richmond, Special. ?

The most infested fruits are cherries, v/lth 12,000,000 bacteria to the half pound; currants with 11,000,000 and trapes with 8,000,000. A man will readily consume a half pound of grapes at a sitting, and If tho state of his health leaves him open to tho attacks of disease, It can bo appreciated what a tremendous risk he runs of poisonous Infection ?by tho germs. Not many weeks ago Inquiry was made Into the state of tho surface air in this city. Tho air for several feet above tho ground was found to be lit erally swarming with bacteria. Now It 1b a matter of everyday observa tion that the fruits exposed for sale on (he sidewalks and curbs of New York are placed at no great distance from tho pavement. In many In stances they ure so near the ground a* to be in the very center of the germ-bearing strata of air. The in ference Is obvious.
