Chicago, Mar, 6.— Opening. Close. NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER. (By Wire to Clark ft Co.) New Orleans, March 6. — The Idea was generally entertained In the for eign market that'the liquidation which had been the feature pt the preceding day’s session had run its course. The report seemed to be confirmed by. the steady advance of prices today, op tions gaining 6 points from the lower opening and closing 3 over yesterday’s levels. Spot sales, 12,000 bales at 1 point decline. The trading In the looal market was of no especial significance, being con fined chiefly to ring scalping. The advanced opening caused some scat tered selling on the part of Buch pper- ators, hut all offerings were readily absorbed, and the market steadily strengthened its position. The up ward tendency of Liverpool likewise had its sympathetic effect on the un dertone while the spat market Bhows no material improvement in so far as the class of offerings Is concerned, nevertheless the business done today has beetf comparatively large. The demand for hlg'n^grades continues un- nbated, but the exporter finds himself confronted with the difficulty of ful filling his up-grade Engagements. The most noteworthy fact about today’s improvement in prices was the pro pensity displayed by the market In bulling itself. Lett alone and running oh their own merits, the futu-e posi tions slowly but steadily rose in value. Underlying influences have been and are present,, but heretofore the trade has indifferently passed them by and the better conditions prevailing seem to have emanated not so much from any particular source but more from a combination of causes inspired by the better undertone that now exists. The weather map was in reality bet ter than yesterday’s predictions justi fied. .Receipts for the day estimated at some 33,000 bales arc large, but not in comparison with last year's 50,- 000 for the same day. Today’s clear ances from this port are 20,000 hales and exports likewise are supposedly thought to be heavy. We are inclined to believe in higher prices, but we would not overlook the acceptance of reasonable profits, especially as re actions will afford further opportuni ties tor profitable scalping operations. GIBERT & CLAY. Weil Bros. Issued a circular stating that, while there would undoubtedly be some Increase in acreage and use of fertilisers, • the size of the next crop would depend entirely on the seasons. Overcropping when labor Is scarce is just about the worst move a planter can make. The market continues to be a scalp ing affair of ten points either way, with no one possessing nerve enough to sell the market down. The Southern Cotton Association says It Is “In possession of positive Information that exporters’ commit ments for March delivery are very heavy," and advises planters to hold "firmer than ever." ‘ ♦ Port receipts today were 33,000, against 50,000 last year. We are run ning about 60 per cent below laBt year. Texas has evidently "run out.” Price said he would leave Springs for home in ten days. Hot Exporters for Russian account were eager bidders for the better grades. Liverpool ruled very steady throughout the day and closed 5 high er. LIFELESS RIDERS. fffcvllltu laiUcbia CiilM rm Ike Horror* of War. A veteran of tlie British urmy in In dia once saw a at range sight on a bat tlefield. As be tells the story a squad ron of cavalry hud been held In reserve under cover of a field battery and an infantry regiment. The artillery duel had ended. The assault o! ’he enemy In overwhelm lug numbers La.I been re pulsed by the steadiness of the Ininn- try. While a elqud’of smoke hung over the field the cavalry received an older to charge with drawn sabers. The troopers started In close order for the eneiny’R line. Midway they met a destructive fire from earthworks In front of them and from tb^ woods on their flank. A young cavalryman, with his saber drawn, was shot in the heart while leading In the first file. The horse halted, swerved to the right and turned back, but the rider kept bik seat with out flinchiug. The other troopers went on, carried the earthwork by storm, rode at full gallop after the retreating force and converted defeat into rout. The dead trooper meanwhile was re turning with white face and with the blood streaming from his wound. Un der his nerveless hand the horse re ceived neither check uor leading and made its own way toward the Infantry, which was now advancing rapidly. As the smoke lifted the soldiers saw the solitary rider coming, with one hand In a death grip upon the saddle, while the other still held the sword rigidly clasped. It was a sight never to be forgotten— tlie galloping horse, with the dead cav alryman still mounted and looking grim and fierce. It was not until the rider had gone fifty yards from the spot where he had been killed tbnt be rolled off the horse. A similar story is told of Captain No lan, who delivered the fatal blundering order for the charge of the famous Light brigade. He was seen on the field of Balaklava, riding from the hills where the staff officers were drawn up to the quarter where the brigade was station ed. The charge began, and what was left of the brigade returned in broken groups. At last Captain Nolan was seen gal loping rapidly toward the center of the field. He was firmly seated, straight as an arrow and riding well. Suddenly the horse swerved and the rider toppled over. The officers who were nearest rushed forward, but when they lifted him from the ground they found him lifeless. Like the Indian saberman, he had been shot and instantly killed, but bis horse had carried him safely across the field, out of the reach of the pursuing Cos sacks. Indigestion is much *of a habit.
