THE TEUNDERER ON THE CHINESE QUESTION.
LONDON. July 31.-rhe Times thinks the
conflict Of races in California cannot be solved
by heavy duties on immigration or by street
outrages. It isi impossible to suppose the
Chinese can be kept out Of America. Inherit
ing ancient civilization and perfect economic
method, but destitute OF strength and tough
ness. and Of the moral fibre which support au-
thority, the Chinese may be welcomed as as
sistants in colonization, and not pla ;ed as
race likely to dominate in future.

SALES OF OorT0N gOR FUTURH DE.
LIYERY.

A correspondent OF the New York Journal
Of Commerce inquiries: 4
Why is it that the prices Of cotton for fu-
ture delivery ere based on low middlings in
stead OF middhngs as heretof0reP ls it the
purpose Of owners and factors OF cotton to re-
duce the standard one grade? '{ .ai
To which the Journal replies as follows:
Early last season the sales Of cotton Horffor-
ward delivery were made chiefly Of 'smlddllnR." {"
This led to much trouble as there was not
enough OF this quality to nll all the contracts,
and to insist on specific performance was in
many cases to corner OR embarrass the SELLER
AS general rule lines Of cotton have run ua.
everiy for several years, and the growers have
been Ut late more an. ious about quantity than
quality. the change in labor, too, affecting the
condition and classification. Laterip last season
contracts were made for low middltng and as
more of this qualify was on the market their set
tlcpoent gave less trouble Early this season
the New York Board OF Cotton Brokers by
resolution recommended that all contracts for
forward delivery should be made s.on the
basis's Of the grade to be sold /. g., the deliy-
cry should be promised as an average or the
q .allty specified. For the reasons above
named, and also because Of the improved ma
cbinery which enables spinners to uss the lower
grades to better advantage than heretofore,
the grade OF How mid' ling has now Deeh gen.
orally adopted as the basis Of sales. AS cotton
now comes forward 1t is easier to furn1sL that
average than either strict middling or an as-
soitrent that wound average this higher grade.
