Such a Thing It Now Regarded
Among the Earliest of Possibilities.
New York. July 20. Telephonic
communication between England and
America may soon lie a possibility It
a new experimental submarine cable
recently laid across the English chan-
nel by the British postofflee depart-
ment answers expectations. The ca-
ble extends from Dover to Cape Oris
Nek and Is the first of the kind to be
laid in salt waters.
According to reports secured by un
American telephone official the tests
j so far made have been very sathsfac-
j tory and It Is expected the cable will
! be open for public line as soon as the
j French government has completed the
1 connecting land lines.
' Government reports declare that the
j tests made lead to the belief that they
j will revolutionize telephonic communi-
cation between England the continent
of Europe and as Improvement are ef-
fected will bring spoken communica-
tion between Ixuidon and New York
within the hounds of possibility.
PICTURES OF DEAD ITALIAN.
Constable C. L. Maker showed the
reporter today some pictures of the
Italian that was killed at Courtney In
connection with the theft of Mr. John
Nunn's horse and buggy. The pic-
ture was taken after he was killed and
shows the holes made by the leaden
missels and which sent his soul speed-
ing Into eternity. There are two great
ugly holes In the side of the face and
the neck shows to have been literally
shot to pieces. He was a large look-
ing man his hair growing far back on
the forehead and he wore a heavy
mustache. His countrymen here say
he was first seen here about two
months ago and they concur in the
belief that these are the same parties
that stole the Menhow horse and bug-
gy. Some think there is an organized
gang of them centering their opera-
tions in Houston.

After selling at 1R.41 early July
broke to 1.r.f" without a single sale
while only a few thousand bales
changed hands during the entire morn-
ing. This represented a loss from 'the
closing quotation of yesterday of over
It a ba'e and a decline of about $4.50
per bale from the high point yester-
day. Other positions were weak also. Au-
gust sold at a net. loss of 39 points
and new crop months were broken any.
where from 20 to 22 points during the
middle of the day.
It Is estimated that between r.O.OOO
and 7".000 bales of cotton will be re-
ceived between now and August 1.
