BONDS IN LONDON.
COTTON,

The market was firm, holders being
stimulated by the favorable advices re-
ceived from New York and Liverpool.
The market was bare of Middlings, though
there was q brisk demand for that grade.
Low grades were not much in favor; one
or two buyers, in order to fill up their
lists, give ISZ@lSXc for Middling, which
WAS a fraction above the market. Buyers
genorally were Cnsring l7Hc for Low
Middling, though prices were nominal
and unquOtable. Owing to the areness of
the market several lots changed hands st
b following figures: Ordinary, lS@l4c;
Good Ordinary, 16@l5%c; Strict Good
Ordinary, 1916. A bale of new cotton
classed rs strict Low Middling, sold at
lSc. Another now bale, raised on Cane
creek, five miles below the city, was re-
celved yesterday; it classed as Low Mid
ding, and was we'll dried and ginned.
The factor asked $50 per pound for it.

s%' Our suggestion that an Editorial Con-
vcntion be held in this city during the state
Fair seems to meet with the gen eral indorse-
ment Of our brethren of the Press As no one
seems to be especially authorized to issue n
call and the STATE JOURNAL having first pro-
posed the meeting AT that time, we would
now for the sake OF some dciinitcne In the
ulatter, suggest that the editors OF Arkan 'as
meet for preliminary organization on the first
day of the Fair, Tuesday, October 81, Wnen
an adjournment can be had at the option Of
those present for permanent organization
Nothing of particular interest will transpire
on the first day of the FAIR ana preliminary
meeting will afford opportunity for plan OF
action and the selection of an appropriate
time for the meeting of the Convention prop
er--to take place, of course. during the prog
ress of the Fair.--L. R. Journal
Let il be understood then, that the Press Of
Arkansas meet at Little Rock on Sd day OF
October next.
