Special Alumin Saturda3 99c Same Goods Big Sale fourth ginning period of the season, was altogether 1'irger than expected because of the claim constantly made during the period that picking and gin ning were over. Production for the period amounted to 1,145,49 bales. The holiday broke trading up badly -toward the end of the week, and the final session found a considerable ac cumulation of selling orders, which sent qprices to new 'low- levels. Liver pool wenq very ipessimistic and con stantly talked of short time in Man chesteh, while mill takings for the week were under expectations, 342, 000 bales, against 401,000 during the preceding week. This seemed to cause a great deal of liquidation of long cotton. Bullish features played only a small part in the trading of the week and very favorable forecasts of items in the October mill report due on the opening session of the week brought in little support. one pri vate bureaiu estimated consumption of American cotton in this country during 'October at 533,000 bales, against 184,647 (luring September and 401,325 during October of last year.

IROlImEL GETS-LOOT IN JEWELRY STORE Charleston, Nov. 12.-Ono of the boldest robberies in local annals oc urred on upper King Street at 11 'clock this morning when a white man entered the jewelry store of I. Lesser, covered the lone clerk nwith a pistol forced hin to open the safe, and then looted therefrom about $200 in cash and jewelry estimated to )e wortl $2,000. The robber forced the clerk Into a rear room, the door of which he locked, and (lashed into the street, escaping arrest. It is said he boarded a street car in Meeting street, a block east, and on his way, paint from a bucket carried by a passerby splashed upon his overcoat. The po lice are making a wide search for the man. The clerk gave the alarm as soon as he could get out of the locked room, but too late to permit catching the fleeing robber.
