HOW ABOUT THIS?
A very remarkable development has come about that we think the
Public should know. We are compelled to place our syrup in large gal
lon bottle containers. This is due to our inability to secure from the
local manufacturers tin cans that will hold 12 pounds of syrup—a legal
gallon. The best they can offer us is 10-pound tins.
As we believe in a square deal, we were compelled, in all honesty,
to refuse to buy these short-weight tins. We wonder since they are the
purveyors to other local dealers, just how 12 pounds of syrup is squeezed
or compressed into this size container. Or does it suggest the fact that
there Is collusion to defraud between the Tin Trust and tho Syrup Trust?
Tou may draw your own conclusions?
At any rate, the bottle we are using holds an exact gallon, 12 pounds
—< full quarts of the Martin Pure Georgia Cane Syrup. It's good, fresh,
wholesome, delightful and cheap. Sent anywhere in the city for 75 cents
per gallon. Order to-day.

PRICE OF mu
January Consumption Figures Are
Bullish, Causing Short Cover
ing—Trading Entirely Local.
NEW YORK, Feb. 14.—Influenced by
lower Liverpool cables than due, the
cotton market opened steady to-day
with first prices 1 up to 5 points lower
than Fridays close. The figures of
suply and distribution, which showed
that 540,874 bales hau been consumed
during January, against 535,000 bales
last year, was construed as bullish, re
sulting in general covering by profes
sional shorts and some purchasing by
Liverpool and offerings were light and
scattered, and shorts had to bid for
what they wanted, this bringing about a
rally after the call. On the advance,
January reached 12.28, May 12c and
July 11.98. Sentiment continues to
grow more favorable to a further up
turn. Trading was local in character
with few exceptions.
The market while small was very firm
during the late trading on buying of
May and July by trade interests, some
of it said to be for Canadian and New
England mills calling cotton. Buying
of May and selling of Jmy by McFad
den brokers was the chief feature to
the market. With the technical position
; Improved by recent forced liquidation,
the market displays a much better tone
and conservative traders are advising
purchases on all soft spots.
At the close the market was steady
with prices 2 up to 4 points lower than
l the closing quotations of Friday.

i HAYWARD <t CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
; NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 14.—Liverpool
was easier, probably on the usual even-
• ing-up over the week-end and uncer
■ tainty as t the effect of to-day’s Cen
sus report on tlie American markets.
The Census report on supply and dis
tribution published this morning was
an agreeable bullish surprise Owing
to the sharp cut In mill takings In the
past four weeks it was believed that
- the January consumption by our mills
i would be much below’ last year's reconi
consumption of 534.000 bales. To-day’s
report shows instead that the consump
tion of our mi ls during the past month
was 7.000 bales larger than last year.
Another bullish feature shown in the
Census report is that stocks in manu
facturers' hands are 61,000 bales less
than last year, which means that with
greater mill activity there is more raw
material to buy.
First trades here wore at unchanged
prices, but the market soon advanced
on scarcity of sellers and growing de
mand. Bullish confidence is strength
ened by tolday's bu lish statistics of
record consumption in this country and
smaller mill stocks. Futures are too
cheap, compared with spots and If the
firmness in spot prices should continue
for another week, an adjustment by ad
vance in futures would seem most likely
The undertone of the future market
here is decidedly stronger.
Spots are quiet to-day, but steady. No
rush to sell any kind of cotton.

BLIZZARD DELAYS
ILL ST. BUSINESS
Attendance Light on Account of
Tied Up Traffic—List Strong
on Scarcity of Offerings.
By CHARLES W. STORM. .
NEW YORK, Feb. 14.—Business was
restricted at the opening of the stock
market to-day and the attendance on
the floor was light. The blizzard which
tied knots in railroad and street ear
traffic prevented many traders from
reaching the exchange on time. The
chief feature was the scarcity of offer
ings. As a result, the more important
stocks responded to moderate buying.
Amalgamated Copper, which opened
% higher, lost its advance at the end of
a half hour United States Steel com
mon began % lower, but soon recovered.
Gains of % were scored by Lehigh
Valley, Reading. American Car Foundry
and American Ice, Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit and United States Rubber. Pressed
Steel Car was about the strongest of
the specialties, advancing % to 45%.
General Motors was another strong
feature among the specialties, moving up
to 62% on light trading. Bethlehem
Steel gained %. Southern Pacific be
gan fractionally lower, then recovered,
and the same movement took place In
Union Pacific.
The curb market was steady.
Americans in London were firm on
professional dealings.
Standard Oil of New York sold at 203,
up 10 points from yesterday's close.
The market closed steady. Govern
ments unchanged; other bonds steady.

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: “A
disposition exists among wheat traders
to look upon the market as two-sided
for the time being. The disposition
to sell corn short on the breaks makes
it easy for a efw local bulls to control
the market when the crow’d all get too
bearish. The bears say they expect to
see lower prices later in the season."
Bartlett-Frazier Co. say: “Wheat—
We see no reason for higher prices just
now
“Com and Oats —Unless cash demand
Improves, we look for lower prices."
