A smash in cotton values quite as sensational as any advance on the recent upturn took place at the opening yesterday morning, prices breaking 22 to 38 points. At one time on the call January was down 40 points rrom Saturdays close. The census report was not a factor, traders directing their attention to the disposition of enormous selling orders. December sold under 14 cents on the call, and later January also ten below that level.

The break caught many stop orders that nobody thought would be reached. The pit was a good buy on the break, but the pressure of outside liquidation was so heavy that the demand was satisfied quickly. Wall street was also a purchaser on the decline. There were fluctuations of 6 and 7 points between sales. PITTSBURGH QUOTATIONS AND TRANSACTIONS.

LEAPS AS FLYER NEARS.

Note of Farewell Left Behind Is Sole Clue to Man's Identity, SPECIAL TO THE PITTSETJRGH POST. WILMINGTON, Nov. 8. That the unknown man whose dramatic suicide under a Pennsylvania railroad express train In the presence of a crowd of over 100 persons at the French street station yesterday, was a resident of Plttsbursh, was the belief to-day, when an employe of the coroner's office found among; the victim's an envelope addressed to N. McKee, Sandusky street, Allegheny.

In the envelope was a letter telling-. of love and death, but so bloodstained that but little of it was decipherable, apd this note freshly written, but unsigned: "Dear brother I am about to pay the debt of sin. Give love to dad and G. Good-bye." Deliberately Jumps to Death. Shortly before the suicide met his fate, he was noticed walking; on the elevated tracks by a lamp trimmer, who shouted to him that the express was coming: and tolcl him to jump out of the way.

By way of reply the man waved his hat and deliberately leaped in front of the train and was terribly mangled. The man apparently was about 40 years old, six feet high and weighing about 210 pounds. His clothing was of good quality, but over his suit he wore a jumper and overalls. Northsider Thinks Victim Is Brother. Nathan McKee, a salesman, of 1443 Sandusky street, Northslde, when Informed of the death of the Wilmington suicide, said that the man may be his brother, Thomas, who lived with him four years ago.

Mr. McKee says he knows of no reason why his brother should have ended his life. He had not heard from him since last summer, when he received a letter dated Camden. N. J.

Although the person referred to as in the note left behind by the suicide, may be Mrs. Gemima McClarren, of Unionville, Beaver county, a sister of Mr. McKee, the reference to. "Dad" cannot be explained. The father of McKee has been dead some time.

Thomas McKee was formerly a driver for a Northslde department store. He was born and reared on the Northside. He also had worked for the Pennsylvania railroad. According to Mr. McKee, of Sandusky street, the suicide was about 34 years old.

Big Fire Proofing Heavy Light Dealings in a Few West-inghouse Issues, Th Pittsburgh speculative market yesterdav mnrninar was moderately ac tive and 'showed steadiness under the leadership of Coals. Outside the leaders changes in prices were decidedly small tractions, and not of important significance as they did not show decided bias on the part of the general list.

Only a few Issues -were handled in the regular list, while but four were dealt In the unlisted section. The latter part of the day the market moved along very slowly, operations being light and at infrequent intervals. The leader yielded slightly at the finish, but a few members of the list made 1 fractional gains as against prices made early in the session. The bulk of the day's operations was In the better class of stocks, but little attention being given the cheap mining issues. There was a falling oft in trading volume as compared with the record of Saturday.

Sales, 6,433 shares, against 11,362 handled Saturday. The feature yesterday was Pittsburgh Coals. These stocks were strong on the steady demand and both made advances. The buying, of course, was for interests In the East where the trading impetus always originates.

On the New York board Little Pittsburgh Coal quickly advanced 24 from the opening, reacted to 1 and rallied slightly near noon. The preferred began at 69 in the East and was lifted to the first hour.

It was stated coin udj tumulus iuua iuc uuiug wna for the head of a prominent New York financial institution, and there was a likelihood the control of the company would be transferred to the Bast. Some one of the various explanations which have been ventured for the past two months may be the correct one, but which one cannot be known until the chief player shows his hand. It is stated that one of the heaviest buyers of Pittsburgh Coal is a Pittsburgh house. The orders are wired to the local house and It wires them back to New York where they originated.

The local house disclaims all knowledge of the buyer or his purpose In accumulating the stock. In the afternoon not a trade was made In Coal common, but the preferred continued moderately active and made a further gain. It advanced to 714 on fair buying and reacted to 71 at the finish. Little Coal in the East was disposed to be slightly reactionary, while the preferred continued strong to the close, ales near the finish being made at 71.

Should Applied to Certain Individuals That Are Too Energetic in Some Lines, "The Inauguration of a scientific war upon toe hookworm is anot-h" example of what the strong will do i1 the weak." said the Green Goods Man as he kindly placed the glow worm in preparing to "terminate the hookworm men rich and wise sul try to divert it to some good use.

Even so base a creature as the hookworm may be trained to do good. "In this world of airships, autos, football games and prize fights we need an energy destroyer. Why not use the hoo-worm for this purpose? There are several bunches of people that should have their energy restrained, if not eliminated altogether. The gentlemen in the burglarious profession might be made lazy if not useful citizen if they were nibbled by the hookworm. If the State authorities would keep a stable of the worms at penal institutions and compel the prisoners to associate with them, when their terms expired the criminal Instinct would be entirely eradicated or greatly subdued.

"There are also certain gentlemen whom I could name but will not that for many vears have displayed such an energetic thirst that they have spent most of their time In suds houses. A few nibbles of the hookworm might nelp them and by and by assist Incidentally in the great temperance movement now poking its nose in here and there. "Information would be thankfully received that this worm had thrown its hook3 into the grafters who have been displaying entirely too much energy. Recently the local courts applied domesticated hookworms to a few grafters, but there still remains enough gratting energy to call for several million of the worms." Pittsburgh Jobbing Markets. The outgo yesterday from wholesalers and jobbers was of fair volume, but there was nothing to attract unusual attention in mercantile lines.

Buyers from nearby towns took moderately of staple descriptions but were not disposed to load up with any line. Some inquiries are being made concerning stocks and prices for the Thanksgiving season, but buying for that time Is very light. The movement in country produce Is gradually Increasing. This is the season of the year when buying is liberal in some descriptions of country produce, but so far this year the distribution has not been on a large scale. The potato market is quiet.

There is a fair demand for fancy grades, but the movement still lags. The big company stores aro buying moderately, but some have not yet come in, as they are looking for still lower prices. Potatoes sold as low as 35 cents in the yard yesterday, but the quality was of low grade. The range on Ohio stock In car lots was BOCop 65 cents, while Michigan and York State stock was quoted at 4045 cents. Sweets are draggy and in light demand.

It seems to be a difficult matter, to get buyers interested in sweets this year. The call for grapes is good and low prices still prevail, owing to the large supplies. California grapes are doing fairly well, while the call for Malagas Is still light. The movement of quinces has been small and is still discouraging-ly light, consumers refusing to buy. They are offered at concessions, but buyers will not take hold.

Apples are moving fairly well, bulk stuff being preferred. Cranberries are slow. The Elgin butter board made no change in the price of creamery and last week's prices will be in force again. Fresh eggs continue very scarce and Jobbers are asking as high as S3 cents for small lots. BUTTER.
