daily out Of all proportion to the demand.
Port receipts to-day are $4,000 against

whether the market viii continue to act in
the same way.
We feel that should any weakness DC
veiop the decline would be quite rapid and
the weakness would come principally from
actual cotton. The strange part of this
present movement is that stocks at visible
wsssf,y Gowns has lost comparatively little,
showing that plantations ana invisible
{ownS are still furnishing mainly this very
gargc increase over last years movements.

possibly reach $500, 900, which latter figure.
the movement to date and the reports Of
cotton still 70 come forward from planta-
tons and small towns, would seem TO indi-
cate as an easy possibility.
Our daily sales of spot cotton are small
and out OF proportion to tho amount of stock
held here (Which Is now lS9, 600 larger than
last year. and receipts coming in, and il
would be mnch easier. in the absence OF
outside supporting influences, to create .
decline than en- improvement, unless there
should be more active demand for spots
than now exists.
Despite such unfayorable influences there
are some indications of feeling il favor OF
better prices. not justified, however, by the
outlook 1t is argued by some that the in
crease in the worlds consumption makes
an American crop of seven and three
fourth millions necessity and. as it is
generally conceded that the present season
has been simply phenomenal one ike
those OF lei0-Tl and lSS2-sS. and Just as
likely as they We're TO be followed by short
crops the surplus necessarily carried over
from this year may be needed to supply
possible deficit next year.
The problem OF price is thus to be solved
by the outcome of the crop not yet planted.
Before the seed IS in the ground Il would
require great hardihood TO venture pre-
diction regarding either the yield or the
course of prices dependent upon the yield.
Should the planting season be unfavorable
in any way. the natural result would be
general Strengthening of the whole line,
particularly Of the winter months, while on
the other hand favorable outlook would
leave summer months depressed by the
weight OF heavy stocks everywhere and the
prospect Of so large surplus to be carried
over to another season would weaken new
crop positions.
In speculation, contradictions are q pre-
yailing feature at times and upset all cal
cuiations and statistical reasons why the
market for an article. should pursue a
course different from what it actually does.
Statistics and the laws OF supply and de-
mand will tell in price in the long run, but,
in the meantime, sentiment IS dangerous
factor and often runs counter to conditions
that should cause the market to go in an
opposite direction.
The conditions seem to Us to favor lower
prices. Whether sentiment can be created
10 ignore them. is something the near tut
ure VIII determine. Your respectfully,

THE RICE CROP.
Lively Competition Promised by the Ex,

porters in Jspan.
The following report from Japan in re-
gard to the rice crop Of the present season
will De 4 matter of interest TO the many per-
sons in this state interested in the cultiva-
ton Of the staple. The report is official,
being from the United States consul at one
OF tire largest japanese ports:
The reports concur in estimating the
yield Of rice this season Us unusually large
ls3, 70l, 500 bushels is good average crop,
but this year rs much as 2tS, $4,000 bushels
will probably be produced. If this esti-
mate be realized, the quantity of rice avail
able for export will not be far short of
74,4i3,5O0 bushels, which is believed to be
more than America and Europe can posi-
bly, take, and IS about ten times as much as
the largest export hitherto made in any one
year from Japan
Judging from this report it is highly prob
able that the Carolina planters will find a
very lively competitor in the exporters of
Japan. The Carolina rice is always Of such
an excellent quality, however, that it is able
to hold its own in any market, and under
any circumstances.

Snow has fallen over wide area in the

there is no essential change in the average
condition Of the growing wheat crop in the

The freezings and the moisture recently
experienced have checked the progress OF
oats seeding operations and other work on

been made in blowing for spring seeding

Jno. M. Palmer Elected United
 States Senator.
JOYFUL NEWS FOR DEMOCRATS.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, March ll.-Gen John M. Palmer was de clared elected U. s. senator at II o'clock to-day amid great rejoicing of the democrats. The vote was: Palmer 1O3, C. J. Lindley 100. Streetor 1. Cockrell and Moore as they agreed last night, voted for Palmer, and Taubeneck voted for Streetor.
 The republicans this morning held a caucus and sent for Representative Moore and offered him the solid repub- lican vote of 100, if he and his two colleagues. Cockrell and Taubeneck, would join them, but Moore said he had waited eight weeks for the republi- can support and it had come too late. He would vote for Palmer.
 When the roll was called for the l54th ballot it was foregone conclusion that Palmer was elected. The demo- crats could not restrain themselves, however. when Moore's vote gave them the necessary majority and q scene followed, beside which at Ogal- lallla ghost dance would seem tame affair. A committee was sent for Gen. Palmer. He addressed the assemblage and thanked the l0l and also Moore and Cockrell.
 At the conclusion of his remarks, which were mainly of thanks to his friends, the joint assembly adjourned sine die.
 palmer's election will be as great a relief to the country. which has watch ed the daily and often monontonous sessions of the joint houses, as it will be gratifying to his constituency and the democratic party.

BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENT.

It gives me pleasure to announce to the many friends and patrons of THE TIMES newspaper and job department that our Mir. Ed Landvoigt, of Mem phis, has determined to make Forrest City his future home, and devote his time and talents entirely to THE TIMES. Having been in the business some thirty years. it seems unneces- sary to say that his long experience and perfect familiarity with every de- partment of the work gives us an ac- quisition of great value, and of which we are satisfied the public will be CO., equal with us in appreciating. He or l may be found at all times in the of flee, upsta ams in THE TIMES building, or at the News stand.
 New type and large new press will shortly be added to our already superb facilities for doing tirst-class job print ing. This fact, coupled with his and my years of practical experience in the best and largest job printing offices in the South. is, think, ample guaranty that our work will be equal to that of any city. We hope to thus increase the business and do the printing for Eastern Arkansas, and especially such as now goes to Memphis and other points outside the state.
 Hoping our business relations will be even more pleasant than in the past, and soliciting your orders, l am
