NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER.
By wlro to Clark & Co.
New Orleans, La., March 27, 1900.
Liverpool was again disappointing
this morning, the loss In values being,
attributed In early cables to some gen
eral profit-taking. Further losses were
witnessed throughout the session, and
on the close options were lower by six
points from the previous day’B level.
Spot sales also showed a falling oft,
but at a loss of only one point, 8,000
hales covering the day’s business.
Liquidation Beemed to he the .order of
the day, and this accounted for the
lower opening In the local market, hut
a slight recovery later occurred on the
further unfavorable condition of the
weather map over the belt. The lack
of any speculative Interest, however,
caused prices to rule dull and narrow
an,d the only Impairment to the mar
ket’s undertone was tracoable, to the
absence of the heretofore prevailing
demand for spot cotton.
The heavy port receipts today hear
witness to the fact of the large liqui
dation of spot cotton in the Interior
and which was doubtless brought
about by the recent advance In prices.
It Is generally conceded thnt very lit
tle If any of this cotton Is to be added
to the stocks at ports, hut is destined
though to fill prompt shipments. The
halting attitude which the market has
assumed lit the face of what was con
sidered to be n strong manipulative In
terest hns caused a decided lack of
confidence on the part of outside spec
ulation, a condition which to be shak
en off seems to depend largely upon
reports of the progress of the new
crop, therefore a return to scalping op
erations seems the best course to pur
sue. * GIBERT & CLAY.

There Is a wide disposition among
Southern producers to sell next sea
son's production at 10 cents, and some
heavy sales have already been made.
Days of wild excitement in the pit
may be expected soon.
Will the South buy May and July?
Hardly.
The market has again become very
broad.
Fort receipts were
38,000 last year.
30,000 against
Fall River brokers sent heavy buy-
ing-Jorders to the South.
Germany was reported a heavy
buyer.
It will surely take 12,500,000 to go
round next season.

THE TENDENCY OF
YOUNG PHYSICIANS
To Use the Knife—An- Old Practition
er Stire Up the Profession in Savan
nah.
Special to The Herald.
Savannah, Ga., March 27.—Dr. B. S.
Purse, an old practitioner, has Btlrred
a good deal of interest among the local
physicians by coming out in an inter
view and endorsing what Dr. E. GA
Janeway, of New York, says about the
tendency of young physicians to cut
up their patients. He says that the
modern doctor wants to cut too much.
There are many physicians In Savan
nah who pride themselves upon their
work as surgeons, and they are al
ways ready to Jab a knife in search
of a diseased appendix or for any other
reason. The Savannah public Is in
clined to take Dr. Purse’s view of the
matter and to cry "abas the knife!”
