NEW YORK COTTON LETTER.
(By Wire to Gink & Co.)
New York, April 24.
Since the opening of the market
May has been in fair supply at 15
points over July. Early in the session
the offerings of July were rather lib
eral and local traders were encour
aged to sell short, so when the early
pressure was removed some outside
orders to buy hastened covering of
shorts. The uncertainty of May op
erations checks business, but not more
so than the dual factors of the de
mand on this decline and the early
encouraging crop outlook. Market
conditions are almost on balance for
the time being, but the renewed de
mand for eastern and southern mills
is again in evidence and the premiums
for good cotton Is woll maintained,
and at many Interior points cotton
commands the same price per pound
ns when New York was 30 points
higher. C. D. FREEMAN & CO.
COTTON PICKINGS.
Purnlshed for Daily Herald Reader,
by Clark ft Co,
Liverpool simply “followed suit"
and came 3 down. Sales were 10.000,
but spots showed a net loss of 5
points Is a bad feature.
Europe reported “no speculation at
all, and everybody believing In a rec
ord-breaking acreage.”
Our opening was very tame. There
Is little outside business.
The market is almost wholly profes
sional.
Buffalo, Tex., came to the front by
reporting an Increased acreage of 40
per cent.
This crop certainly got off running.
If the acreage is Increased 10 per
cent., as some very smart people seem
to think, It will be practically the
same—32,000,000—os when a crop of
13,700,000 came to town. .
This is undoubtedly the best fertil
ized crop the South has ever planted.
On the big crop the Texas yield was
“cut” 000,000 bales by the boll weevil.
Do not forget that we can make 14,-
000,000 bales ngaln.
Fair weather and poor spot demand
has made Price’s campaign a frost.
Old Sol continued to smile all over
the belt; from Texas they wire, “One
can almost hear the tap Root take
Root” This Is probably an exagger
ation.
Port receipt? were «20,000, against
35,000 last year.
Liverpool's close was 2 to 3 lower.
The market had about as much life as
a ’Frisco earthquake victim.
NEW ORLEAN8 COTTON LETTER.
By wtro to Clark Oo.
Now Orlenns, La., April 24.
Cables, while noting with some sat
isfaction the Improvement In prices In
Liverpool, were nevertheless inclined
to view the present market with some
misgiving and rather expected lower
levels on account of the very favor
able weathor conditions and the fact
that speculation has been checked ma
terially by the great disaster that has
befallen San Francisco. Options were
lower than the previous day’s close by
2 points, while 10,000 bales of spots
were sold at a decline of 5 points.
Our market on the opening failed to
respond to the surprisingly good show
ing made abroad, but soon thereafter
some support In the shape of scat
tered buying brought about a healthy
reaction which In the nature of things
was more or less expected when the
rather severe decline of yesterday Is
remembered, and the additional
strength resulted from good buying
reported In the eastern market.
Taken ns a whole the government's
weekly report of the weather was ex
ceedingly favorable, only here and
there were reports received Indicating
a lack of moisture, while the apparent
frequency of rains in Texas was con
sidered beneficial. The numerous at
tempts that have been made to further
advance prices, when all Indications
have been favorable, have resulted In
little more than temporary, while on
the other hand declines have been
brought about with excessive pressure,
being seemingly so easy of accom
plishment that public opinion, having
been sorely tried by heralded bull
campaigns, has found some consola
tion In adhering to that side which
finds more favor In the eyes of the
trade generally. Yours very truly,
GIBERT ft CLAY.

A Bret Harte Joke.
8am Davis of Nevada once made a,
wager that he could successfully Imi
tate the style of any living or dead
pdet and do It so thoroughly that, the T
difference was not discernible and that ’
the public, the press and the critic*
would not detect the fraud. As a re
sult he wrote “Bluley and 40,” to which
he signed F. Bret Ilnrte’s name. The
fake was put out in n publication
known ns the Open Lot toy. ft describ
ed an engineer who took his train
through a snowstorm in the Sierras, dy
ing at his post. From the Atlantic to
the Pacific the poem v.v.s copied.
Rinley and 40” was given n full page
In Leslie’s Weekly, with a portrait of
Bret Harte, nud described as “the best
short poem of the decade.” It was
many years before Mr. Harte denied
Its nuthorslilp. The poem has sine*
been incorporated* in several books of
popular recitations, notwithstanding

No Surprints In Drenma.
No one Is ever surprised In a dreanfc
A man dreaming is at one moment
bathing in the sea and at the next mo
ineut souring In a balloon, but the sud
den and inexplicable change does not
surprise him, nor is he surprised to
meet In the flesh friends long dead, nor
is ho surprised to find himself doing
deeds that really are beyond him. The
reason is that dreamers have no mem
ory. In real life to be pursued through
the struts by n lion would be astonish
ing, but this accident would be accept
ed in a dream as horrible, but quite
commonplace, the memory not being
there to say that it It is unheard of for
lions to pursue one in cities. In the
so me way, In dreams, men are not sur
prised to find themselves ballooning be
cause they don’t remember that they
were never up in a balloon before, and
they are not surprised to find them
selves conversing with dead people be
cause they don’t remember that these
people are dead.—New York Press.

How He Remembered It.
When they met on Chestnut street
after some months in which they hadn’t
seen each other the one chap told the
other he had taken a little house in
Germantown and was there with his
lares, penates and coal bill. “Come up
and see me some evening—any even
ing. We’re rarely out, you know, and.
then, we have a telephone, so you can
let us know when you’re coming.”
“I suppose your name Is In the tele
phone directory?” queried the other.
“Well, no, not yet. as we’ve Just got j
the telephone, but our number Is—is— i 1^1 TST I\8Tf0n8l |^8flK
really It’s funny, but just this minute ’
I can’t—It’s something like— Ding it
all, It’s strange I forget that number,
for just on purpose I multiplied It by
two and divided the result by four, so
as to enable me to remember it, and I
can’t recall the first thing about it
Ever know the like? I’ll write you the
number.”—Philadelphia Record.
