Albany, Ga., May 2, 1906. The course of values during today's session has simply been a repetition of many which, have preceded it. The foreign markets continue to sell all cotton available and flood the Ameri can markets with orders for shipment as far as twelve months ahead. The range of values in.the option markets is almost nothing, but this state of af fairs cannot last long. Sooner or later the general public will awaken to the fuel that It is time to “sit up and take notice.” Receipts continue alarmingly light, and the tendency at the moment Is to reduce rather than to increase crop estimates. If holders of desira ble lists Of spot cotton continue to hold with the bull-dog tenacity which has characterized their efforts during the pnst three months, Europe will be compelled to raise their limits or to "close down for repairs.” Crop con ditions continue good, but that is small comfort to a man who has to buy cot ton to keep the spindles turning dur ing the summer. It is 100 days now before any part of the new crop will he available, and many and varied are the contingencies which can- arise dur ing this period. We are rather in clined to the belief that 10% for tbc fall and winter positions discounts a crop of 12,500,000. CLARK ft CO. pJri COTTON PICKINGS. olshed for Daily Herald Readers | by Clark & Co. ■ Once again Liverpool declined to fol low America’s decline. The great Eng llsh market was only one lower/while spots were firm at unchanged prices. European gossip was to the effect that “offerings from America must in crease so spinners may lay In reserves before any material decline can come from present satisfactory level." New York opened 2 to 3 better. The market appears strong enough to be “self-supporting.” Russia reports great activity in all Industrial enterprises; particularly so In the manufacture of cotton goods The greatest of all virtues in specu latlon Is patience. The trade generally appears willing to believe in an Increased acreage of 8 per cent. An increased acreage with insuffl clent labor would mean a short crop In the event of a rainy season. Present prices for th'e fall and win ter positions discount a crop of 12,500,- 000 and for anyone to predict a crop of this size this early In the game would be "counting chickens before they were hatched.” The severe break In the stock mat ket is without apparent effect on cot ton. Fine weather on the plant where it is up, but bacl where it Is still under cover. Liverpool’s close was steady at a decline of 3 points. Port receipts were 14,000 against 34,000 last year. SMALL NUMBER AT MEETING POST A SENDS GOOD CROWD To Albany Convention—Savannah Men Arrive This Afternoon. Special to The Herald. x Savannah, May 2.—'"All aboard for Albany!” This morning there pulled out of Savannah, via the Seaboard Air Line railway, one of the most enthusiastic lots of delegates that ever left for a state convention of traveling men. They wero the delegates and alter nates front Post A, T. P. A., to the state convention of the T. P. A. at Albany. Mr. Mnx Krauss was In charge of the party. It Is expected to reach Al bany this evening. The convention does not open until tomorrow morning, but the Savannah crowd wants to be on time. Mr. Hugo Frank, as before mentioned in these dispatches, is ex pected to be made president of the state association this year. It Is Sa vannah’s turn to name the executive. The Savannah delegation will be at home on Saturday morning. ATTENTION, ELKS 1 Important meeting of Albany Lodge No. 713 this evening. Many matters in which all members of the lodge are Interested will be considered, and a full attendance is urged. H. T. MCINTOSH, E. R. H. ROBINSON, Secretary. Of $ °f P. District Organization In Albany Yesterday Afternoon. The district’convention of Knights of Pythias in this city yesterday after noon was not largely attended, some of the lodges not being represented at all. District Deputy W. W. Fleming was present and presided, the meeting being held in the K. of P. hall on the third floor of the Woolfolk building. That the meeting was not more largely attended w;as due in large measure to the fact that the' grand lodge Is soon to meet, and interest In that event In the' order inevitably de tracts from minor gatherings such as that held in Albany yesterday. The next meeting will probably be held late in the fail, and at that time it is not doubted that the attendance will be grntlfylngly large. W. A. Jordan, of Blakely, was yes terday elected president of the district organization, Dr. Hugo Robinson, of Albany, vice-president, and Charles N. Wilson, of Poulnn, secretary. The president will designate the next place of meeting. Garden Hose Give Your Roses a Bath! We have just received a fresh stock cif Hose and nozzles. Quality good, prices better. Phone 300.

Fair Warning Given the Public by City Health Authorities. The Herald is requested by the city authorities to again remind the public that cases will be docketed against all citizens who neglect to place their premises in a sanitary condition. As stated In these columns several days ago an Inspection of the entire city is about to be made by the health officers, and all premises will be care fully inspected. Front,and back yards will be carefully examined, and where It is discovered that proper safeguards have not been taken in the Interest, of the public health, cases will be dock eted against the offending parties, who will be required to answer before the mayor. Delay is dangerous. If your prem ises have not been given a thorough cleaning, have them cleaned at once. This is demanded in the Interest of public health, and as the only certain means of guarding against a police court experience. WITTE’S RESIGNATION IS ACCEPTED. St. Petersburg, May 2.—The resig nation of Couni Witte, as premier, has been accepted. He will be succeeded by M. Goremykin, former Minister of the Interior.
