By wire to Clark & Co. New Orleans, La., May 6, 1906. The excellent market in Liverpool could hardly be called surprising in the face of noteworthy Improvement In statistics, as demonstrated by yes terday’s visible statement. Bears were nervous and covered extensively, and this and the more optimistic feeling In Manchester helped along the ad vance, closing prices showing a gain over yesterday of 6 points. Spot sales were 7,000 bales, old quotations being raised 3 points. The same influences that governed the action of the foreign market were largely responsible for the Improve ment here, but despite even the better feeling that now prevails, very little, If any, Interest Is manifested by the public at large. Nevertheless, prices were well maintained throughout the trading and the disposition of those who generally favor the short side to avoid It for the moment was unmistak able, especially since the new bull leader had announced himself as pre pared for a startling advance, his rea sons for which still remaining In ob scurity, , i , The visible supply statement was decidedly more bullish than expected, the spinners’ takings for the week of 232,000 bales, against 248,000 last year and 126,000 the year before, greatly exceeding expectations, while the to tal decrease of 118,000 bales was 54,- 000 bales In excess of the correspond ing period last year. Altogether, it was a very, satisfactory statement, a reawakened Interest amongst those who have hitherto remained indiffer ent Yours very truly, GIBERT & CLAY. COTTON PICKINGS.

The “Insight” figures show 10,000,. 000 up to date. This means a crop of 11,000,000. Comparatively speaking, the market was fairly active. Weather, generally favorable. Can the Price Interests put October to lie? Yes, If the weather assists them. And now comes the grass. No more rain is needed -before June. Increase started when the new bank of Mr. W. W.

DEMERITS Instead of Dismissal for Hazing at Naval Academy. Washington, May 6.—After a con sultation of naval officials, admirals and the superintendent of the Naval Academy, several midshipmen impli cated In hazing will be punished by demerits instead of by dismissal. The new law provides that demerits may be substituted for the harsher punish ment. l Mr. S. L. Bowen, of Wayne, W. Va., writes: “I was a sufferer from-kidney disease, so that at times I could not get out of bed, and when I did I could not stand straight. I took Foley’s Kid ney Cure. One dollar bottle and part of the second cured me entirely.” Foley’s Kidney Cure works wonders where others are total failures. For sale? by HHsman-Sale Drug Co.
