NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER
.(By Wire to Clark & Co.)
New Orleans, Feb. 24.—Spot sales
of 8,000 bales were - about the only
news item of Interest from the foreign
market. Options were stupidly dull
and gained a point from the close yes
terday.
The covering by local shorts was a
feature of our mnrket, and this, to
gether with a limited fresh buying
power, gave the mnrket an upward
tendency In the early trading, hut
later In the session room traders, by
concerted action, took advantage of
conditions, nnd caused n slight de
cline to occur. The unfavorable news
from Now York to the effect that a
very large circulation of March no
tices wits expected Monday, caused a
decided easiness to exist, nnd prices
showed n further tendency to shrink.
Whllp spot transactions linve as
sumed no lnrge proportions this day:
nor In fact tor the last, two days, It Is
more than generally believed that
there remain some large commit
ments for prompt shipment unfulfilled.
In which case present conditions must
soon show material expansion, and as
the factor displays no signs of uneasi
ness, firm prices ns well will doubt
less rule.
Now that the 'March position has
been largely, threshed out, through
liquidation nnd through transfers to
Inter niopths, business has again as
sumed limited proportlqnp, hut should
the worst fears entertained bo realized
on Monday, the first notice day In New
York, a further decline in price levels
more than probable nnd a state which
would no doubt he helped along by
stop-orders being reached. Until this
element 1ms' been for all time cleared
away, a decided nervous feeling is
botind to exist, and we feel that pend
ing a thorough liquidation of this in
terest in the Eastern market, price
changes will show a temporarily down
ward movement.

Two bottles of Electric Bitters have

All old-time Cough Syrups bind the
bowels. This Is wrong. A new idea
was advanced two years ago In Ken
nedy’s Laxative Honey and Tar: This
remedy acts on tho mucous mem
branes of the throat and lungs nnd
loosens the bowels at the same time.
It expels all cold from the system. It
clears the throat, strengthens the mu
cous membranes, relieves coughs,
colds, croup, whooping cough, otc.

Liverpool waa a trifle disappointing
on contracts, but the sale of 8,000 at
2 points advance more than made up
for It.
Saturday in Europe Is a half holi
day, and the market of Saturday is no
criterion.
Although nbsent, Theodore is not
forgotten.
There will be no chance to buy cot
ton in the South under ten cents on
this crop.,
Freeman says:, “On the jwhole, I
am beginning to sprout horns."
The movement Is still behind the
10,000,000 crop of the Sully year.
We now have the peculiar spectacle
of the South as a bear on its own great
staple, #hlle Europe, naturally bearish,
Is very bullish. ,
If the mills call for the cotton due
them right now, there will bo some
thing doing.
Rumors werp current in _ New Or
leans that “a strong bull pool would
begin buying cotton next week."
Gibert & Clay say: “Now that the
March tender bugaboo Is out of the
way, everything looks clear for
healthy reaction.”
At last, port reoeipts are beginning
to run below last year. It Is generally
believed that Texas and the Terri
tories hold less stocks than for many
years.
Col. Joe Hoadley is as silent as the
grave.
Spot men have made up their minds
to spend this summer at home.
The worst appears over, and buyers
have little to fear from this time on.
FIVE TO TWO.
The South W1H Be in the Minority oh
the Commission.
From the Macon Telegraph.
The political commission to be ap
pointed by the Hepburn bill would pos
sibly have one, not more than two
Southern men on It. The rates to com
petitive markets would be made by the
five or six-Northern men on the com
mission. The one, or the two. South
ern men on It would draw their pay
and be no more effective than a knot
on a log.
The President found Northern coun
sels somewhat divided on the question
—perhaps for other reasons than those
just stated. It was necessary- to use
the political South against the Indus
trial South to help the matter,through.
How far he has outgeneraled r us tho
result of-the vote'in the House has
demonstrated.
We repeat the warning, that we are
creating a power which jvlll rise up
to curse us. * We assert again that the
greatest dangers to the republic lurk
behind popular clamor. We’-declave
once more that this newspaper Is more
concerned ahbut what Is right than
what is popular. What la right is best.
WHat Is popular Is too often disastrous
when it is not checked. There are
those who, whether they are seeking
office or not, like to "trot with the
gang,” or, to put It another way, “swim
with the tide.” It Is easy. It requires
no effort. I One has neither to exert
one’s self nor to think. How comfort
able it Is to float) and how delicious
it Is not to have to think. One doefr
not sink when he can float. So It is
that It Is easy to do wrong. It is easy
to be misled. And yet some of us
must think. Some of i\s must fre-
