COTTON THIS WEEK
New Orleans.—'l no cotton market this
week prom!Hex to break away from
statistics anil pay more attention to the
general trade situation. The census bu
reau KVldav will Issue a report on gin
ning carrying the crop down to January
16th, but the amount of cotton to be
added to the previous total hardly can
be over 200,000 hales and it Is not gen
erally considered of any great import
ance.
Those who lean to the bull side are
greatly Interested In the more opti
mistic feeling generally In this country
and abroad. Signs of further Improve
ment will be eagerly watched for this
week.
So far as the ginning returns are con
cerned, the trade does not look for a
report as large as that of last year
which was 181,5 i„ hales for the period.
Two years ago ginning for the period
amounted to 198,797 bales and three
years ago to 168.632. Bearish opinion
probably ranges up to 176,090 bales while
bullish expectations go as low as 100,-
000 bales.
The spot situation will attract more
attention than It has been getting as
there are signs of a revival In the de
mand and of more Interest on the part
of buyers.
Bulls hope for a better demand which
will reduce slocks at ports and In the
Interior and pave the way for bullish
operations In the summer months.
Bears do not consider that the demand
ran Improve materially, since takings
liv mill* thus far this season have been
arge also they do not think th> t manu
facturers will risk heavy purchases of
the low grades. Bulls, on the other
hsnd think that manufacturers will find
Increased uses ft*- the low grades. \»-
velopments this week may throw con
siderable light on the spot situation.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
N*w Orleans.—Brisk trading marked
the opening of the week in the cotton
market. First prices were seven to
eight points up on a steady tone. Ca
bles were better than due on futures
while the large foreign spot sales were
accepted as confirmation of bullish
claims an of an Increasing demand from
tho mills.
Orders from outside sources were
rather *large and furnished a demand
for contracts which readily absorbed
selling to realize on the paVt of last
week's buyers. In the early trading the
rise was increased to eleven to twelve
points. May touching 13 cents.
Reports that the lower grades of spots,
hitherto considered a drug on the mar
ket, were meeting with more considera
tion on the part of buyers and that spot
shorts were having extreme difficulty
in coveting commitments of the better
grades, stimulated buying but as the
morning advanced the betterment in
prices did not continue. This was due
to profit taking. The ring gradually
became dull but the tone held steady.
At the highest of the morning prices
were 12 to 13 points up. At noon they
were 10 to 11 up.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
New York.—A higher level was es
tablished in the early trading today.
There was a good demand for all tile
leading stocks, particularly Steel, which
was taken In large blocks. The open
ing advance was confined to fractions
except in the cases of Northern Pacific,
Smelting and Texus Company, which
gained a point.
Traders tok small profits when pres
sure converged on Reading. Tile stock
re-acted from 170 to below 169. Re
cessions otherwise were slight.
Trades opposed the eariy advancing
tendency and succeeded in checking the
movement definitely. Business contract
ed sharply after the first hour. Sensi
tiveness of Reading to pressure dis
couraged further bullish operations, al
though there was no relapse of conse
quence.
Special buying proceeded in individual
stocks but traders asserted that bidding
up of these Issues were designed to fa
cilitate distribution elsewhere. Copper
shares were affected by reports of im
proving conditions in metals here and
abroad unci made a good showing.
Bonds firm.
Closed easy. Profit-taking sales were
numerous in the final hour und prices
went off in all directions. Renewed
selling of Reading was begun after it
had worked back to its high figure and
there was also a liberal supply of Union
Pacific.

THE MORNING WITH THE RECOROER
And It came to pass that a great
mutttude was gathered together. They
numbered as the sands of the sea and
the noise thereof was as the sound of
many waters. There were fifty-Hv*
cases this foggy and sinful morning
One anight have known they had all

All the highest talent was represented.
(High in the low sense )
Judge Plcquet, who for so long held
the scales by the string in those halls,
today put his entire weight on one
side in defense of a tal and Diana-like
negress entitled Lhla Matthews. Khe
was confronted by her victim, swathed
in about two hundred yards of band
age, whom she had cut as to the hand.
The victim, Daisy by name, had on
Saturday night been wearing r piece
of fur, which belonged to Lela's aunt.
Lela had been sent to reclaim, it. Daisy
had refused to give it up. Where
upon Lela had undertaken to “cut it
off o’ her." In the fray Daisy had
accidentally raised her hand and got it
cut. There was no intent to cut
u.’iyv orcie the fur. That much came
out clearly through the witnesses,

defense. But. woe, Lela was getting
mad during the hearing and, when it
came time for her to make her state

you de truth. She called me a

devils. All tho fabric of the man’s
cunning was dashed to the ground,
and in spite of Judge Picquet’s most

Carpentier’s Victory Over Wells
Causes Two English News
papers to Put Up Big Money
For Heavyweight
Britishers Feel Their Loss of Pugilistic Pride and Are Only
Thinking Up a Way of Replacing the Tight Little Island on
a Sound Queensberry Basis.
(By W. W. Naughton.)
San Francisco. — An inkling of the
widespread chagrin caused In England
by the victory of Frenchman Georges
Carpenticr over Hrttsh Bombardier
I Wells may be found In the report that
a couple of English papers—The Dally
! Sketch and The Sporting Chronicle— l
have set aside a fund of $35,000 to be
1 spent In the development of a heavy
weight of championship calibre.
, According to the news cabled here,
I the purpose Is to Inaugurate tourneys
iin England, Ireland, Scotland and
j Wales, and the survivor in this Na
tional orgie of straight, lefts, right
crosses, hooks and uppercuts ,1s to be
sent against Carpentier for the British
title.
Whether the story Is true or not,
there Is ample evidence that the Brit
ishers feel their loss of pugilistic pride,
and are only thinking up ways and
means of replacing the tight little ls
fand on a sound i Queensberry basis.
The Times In commenting on the
Wells-Carpentler diaster, says:
Likes Lover.
"once more the pugilist who liken
boxing fell before a rival who loves
fighting. It Is clear that our boxers
must learn In fighting, If they are to
hold their own with the American
champions and such Americanized ex
! perts as Georges Carpentier. The
greater efficacy of Inside work has
been demonstrated again and again in
heavyweight contests for the world’s
championships."
The wonder Is, after all we hear
about British stubbornness In the mat
ter of adherence to old traditions, that
such an Influential organ as the Times
should have counselled such a depart
ure from ancient Ideals At the same
time It mu|j, be said that the Times
Is wise In It's generation, for the events
of the past few years the world around
have shown that the straight legged,
straight bodied style of boxing In
vogue In England has become both u
delusion and a snare.
The Noble Art,
It Is a heritage of the Mace days and
It would be still effective, of course, If
the noble art—that Is, the severer
forms of It, —had not been revolution
ized by American fighters. For pretty
glove play the Mace system still holds
the palm. For working damake and
achieving results, the tear-away style
of the American pugilist Is vastly su
perior.
There la something about the stiff
and stilted pose of a British boxer,
which carries one back to the days
when the young Idea was taught to
hit straight from the shoulder. In
those times the number of legitimate
or supposedly legitimate blows could
be counted, almost, on the fingers of
one hand, and In the main they were
straight deliveries, a boxer standing
straight and with his senses always
on guard for any of them. Even the
dreaded uppercut was perpetrated or
attempted right under his eyes.
If he was smart he could see things
eornlng and behave himself a'ksord
tngly. lie could duck or step back or
forestall an assault with a counter.
There was a foil or an antidote for
a strange species. A. R. Parker, the
man who was walking from Norfolk to
San Francisco, was soliciting subscrip
tions in a barber shop on Broad street,
when he was accidentally tangled In
the meshes and came up this morning
for loitering. In his statement he said
lie was a musician. “A what?” he
was asked. "A musician,” he repeated.
It went heavily against him. hut Ids
sentence of fifty days was suspended
and he was given twenty-five minutes
to get out of town.
Another young fellow, who said he
was a brick mason, was given ninety
days for loitering and acting suspic
iously. Judge Irvin told him they
were building a levee up near the
stockade and brick masons were in
great demand. He took his sentence
in such good part, however, and seem
ed such an upright and straightfor
ward sort of young fellow, that the
judge likewise allowed hint to shake
the dust of the city off his feet in
stead. Instantly his face kindled and
became positively radiant. It was
verv nearly uncomplimentary.
After this the eases came up in such
quick succession that the room be
came blurred. Old stagers, like An
nie Ware, who had just returned from
doing penance, were sent back. An
nie said she got out Saturday night
and got drunk time she got home. The
judge said he had asked Superintend
ent Gay to keep her till Monday morn
ing, to which Annie replied: "1 got
your message and I appreciated it
highly." She knew what was coming:
amm I *-
Would but some winged angel, ere too
late,
Arrest tho still unfolded roll of fate,
And make the stern recorder other

Enregister, or quite obliterate.
everything and that was why a bout
between a pair of talented boxers was
so interesting to watch.
Tactics Changed.
Now everything Is changed. For each
blow known to the English method of
boxing, there are surely three or four,
And but a proportion come from the
shoulder. They come from the el
bow, the hip, the thigh and according
to some critics, from the heels or floor.
There are overhand swings and side
winders that a straight-standing man
could not hope to avoid. Even the de
scription, "the noble are of self-de
fense" Is a. misnomer. The up-to-date
American fighter Is possessed mainly
with the Idea of getting within range
and sending in harder blows than he
receives.
With due deference to the Times ad
vice to budding English pugilists, the
writer would arise to remark that
their successful Infighter Is born
rather than schooled. Bomcthlng in
the nature of teamwork between tem
perament and physique Is esstntlal.
Me must be a sturdy fellow to begin
with, and he muHt. he thoroughly Im
bued with the belief that he can stand
the other fellow's punches better than
the other fellow ran stand his.
Under the old style we have each of
ur heard many a time and oft of brains
overcoming brawn; the Oxford student
subduing the bargee and all that kind
of thing, but In the blow for blow
business, that goes with Infighting,
ruggedness Is a necessary quality.
Rooting and Tearing.
A lathy boxer might worry along for
years under the "hit, stop and get
away” order of things, but he would
lust hut a brief while If sent against
Aiinerlcans, whose knowledge of box
ing Is confined to rooting and tearing.
Another thing. The methods of some
of the most famous American Inflght
ers of the past few yenrs have varied
so that there Is little chance of the
new system of fisticuffs being re
duced to a science that can he ex
pounded In manuels.
The basic principle, It appears to me,
after watching Terry McGovern, Billy
Papke, Frank Klaus, Rattling Nelson,
Ad Wolgast and very many others, li
to crouch and keep both gloved fists
plunging like a double headed batter
ing ram at body or head.
American Way.
The elbows and forearms, working
like shuttles, Intercept many of the
opponent’s punches, but In the main
the secret of success lies In being able
to absorb more than the man opposed
to you.
Aside from this forthright douhle
h coded tattoo, however, there are
breast-grazing uppercuts, loop and
loop blows, overhand wallops, back
handers and numberH of hooks and
Jolts and l have yet to see the suc
cessful Inftgnter who did- not special
ize on some particular delivery.
By all means have the British ring
man adapt American methods. Rut
do not make the mistake ot intnklng
that It is entirely a matter of lining
shown how. First of all, you must he
built right, after that you must gain
a general Idea of thing, and after that
Individual Ingenuity comes In.
RECOVERS STOLEN RING
FROM NEGRO SATURDAY
Mr. D. L. Castleberry, Whose
Home Was Robbed, Still Has
Not Recovered 3 Rings and
Watch.
Mr. D. L. Castleberry has recover
ed one of tile four rings which were
stolen from his home in North Au
gusta on Friday afternoon last. The
ring recovered is set with an opal,
while tho three remaining rings have
not been recovered. The watch
which was stolen has not been recov
ered either.
The mimner in which the ring was
recovered Is interesting. A white
boy, wtio had been seen with a negro
who wag suspected of having some of
the stolen property, was arrested by
an officer on upper Broad Street.
There was another charge against the
white hoy, but he immediately and
voluntarily stated that he didn't have
any of the jewelry but that the ne
gro he was with had a ring. The
negro was also arrested and searched
and the ring found. He proved by
llie bartender and other witnesses,
however, that the same negro had
sold the stolen watch for one dollar.
The police are now on the lookout
for the negro who sold the ring and
watch, believing that, they will he
able to recover the remainder of the
stolen articles.

STORY OF A VANISHED
PREJUDICE
Tu the February Woman’s Home
Companion, Christine Terhune Her
rick writes an article entitled "What
I Have Learned About Canned Foods.”
Khe says that some years ago she had
a rral prejudice against canned foods,
and sho calls her article "the story of
a vanished prejudice." Commenting
on the improvements In canned goods,
she says in part:
"The workings of the Pure Food
Law are among the many things done
nowadays to smooth the way' of the
housekeeper. We all moke our la
ment, and with reason, over the high
price of living. Isn't it worth while,
now and then, to cultivate cheerful
ness by thinking of the advantages
coining our way In housekeeping?
There are still unwholesome foods on
tho market, unsanitary methods en
viron our bakeries as well as our
laundries. But conditions have beon
improved to on extent we do not al
ways appreciate. Think of a few of
them!
"When we consider the banishment
from canned foods of unacknowledged
chemicals, the care taken to use fresh
and good materials in canning, the
cleanliness enforced In the canneries
and among those who work there, tlnr"
mark set by tho canners' associations
for a high standard of Integrity in
manufacturing throughout the coun
try, I think we housekeepers might
feel that our case is not entirely dis
couraging."
