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.

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- the nde. Enamelware— Turquoise Blue and Steel.
