the Market.

Atwood Violet & Co. on the CONDITION oi
the Market.
NEW ORLEANS, La, May 3.-At-
wood Violet & Co. say:
Futures to what has
proven to be the rule recently, we
should have a lower market tomor-
row, because of higher closing today
than yesterday. On Saturday last
there was an advance of 6 points, on
Monday a decline of IA points and to-
day the advance is 10 to II points.
The exception that proves the rule
may be realized tomorrow and the
market improved, but this depends as
usual largely upon Liverpool where
the reaction today from a decline
of 2 or Gath at opening to recovery of
it, and in advance of one over yester-
day, closing firm, is due to rumor of
an early settlement of the English Ia
Dor troubles. Our cables say the ru-
mored strike will be settled next week,
adding, however, there is no real
news. Other cables say the improve
ments are merely in anticipation of
what may occur in the way of set
Element. 1t is fact, how
ever, that New York is
s and this market 10 to IL higher
than yesterday no matter what the
cause may be. That speculative val
ues often run for the immediate fut-
ure in a direction different from what
all the indications point to has been
frequently illustrated of late.
A bet was offered today that the net
crop will be 100000 minimum, but
was not placed. This would represent
about Is per cent decreased acreage.
Liverpool spot sales were 1000 today
against 5000 yesterday. The recent
advance has evidently caused large
interior and port movement.
Port receipts today IL 900 against
same last year, and since Friday 5,4OO
ahead of last year. The total this week
last year was "A 900 which will be eX-
ceeded. The amount that came into
sight this week last year was $4,000.
We estimate the amount to come into
sight this week about same. Receipts
here tomorrow estimated at 800
against 300 bales last year and 5000 at
all ports same day last year. One of
the most prominent exporting firms
in this country telegraphs us today as
follows:
Liverpool looks rather on the
strike as bad argument, as it would
reduce the stocks of yarns and give a
better chance of mills continuing to
run the balance of the season full time
instead of resorting to short time.
This lockout is practically a short
movement and is caused by the mas
tiers and we think the market will be
easier here on the ending of the lock-
out as many are waiting to SELL"
Spots closed quiet and firm. Sales
$50 bales; quotations unchanged.
F. o. b.-Sales 200 bales. Offerings
and demand light. Very little doing
in consequence Of higher prices asked
by interior sellers.

Woman is most beautiful when she
is most really herself and the least
conscious of it.
Nothing so much contributes to self
consciousness as the wearing of artifi-
cial hair to hide the ravages of dis
ease or the effects of neglect. On the
other hand, how much does the,pos-
session of fine natural hair contribute
that ease and freedom which is as at
tractive in the mature woman as in
the girl still in her teens?
There is nothing known that SO
effectually strengthens the hair and
gives healthful tone to the scalp, as

A SAD ACCIDENT.
a 2 Year-0ld Boy Crushed by an EleCtri

2 Year-Old Boy Crushed by an Electric
Car.
Yesterday afternoon about O'Clock
the Electric Street Car company met
with its first fatal accident, the I'M
fortunate person being Van Buren,,
the 2.year-old son of Mr.. Theodore
Cullen, who works for Mr.. Zilker. The
scene of the tragedy was at the corner
of Red River and East Third street,
and as near as can be learned from
eye witnesses the circumstances were
as follows:
Soney Johnson and William E.
Spencer, two colored furniture movers,
were on their wagon about fifty
feet from the spot where the
child was killed. They say that when
they first noticed the child the car
was about ten feet from it, running at
the customary rate of speed. AT that
time the child was about feet from
the track and walking away from it.
Suddenly, however, the little fellow
turned and started to cross over in
front of the moving car. They say
the motorman at once yelled to the
child and used his utmost endeavor to
stop the car, which he succeeded in
doing within distance of twenty
feet from the time the child first
started to cross the track, but it was
not in time to prevent the killing.
The wheels never passed over the
child but pushed its body along for
two or three feet, crushing the head
terribly and breaking every bone in
its body. Death was instantaneous.
The car was No. 30, in charge of
Motorman Wallace Peoples and Con-
ductor Y. P. Dempsey, who were re-
leased ON their own recognizance by
Judge Stuart in the sum of 5000 to APP
pear at the inquest which will proba-
bly, be held today, after he had view
ed the remains and heard the state
ments O. some of the witnesses.

whilst the cost to the consumer has
been increased by the duty and the
possibilities of manufacturers have
been restricted both in the market
and quantity.
Sheen husbandmen derived no sub
stantial benefit. The act of 1888 inn
posed an average rate of duty OF 40
Der cent. The two acts of 1890, which
supplanted it, imposed an average
of nearly 60 per cent. This is not the
worst. The rates of duty were placed
lower by that act on luXuries than on
the necessaries of life.
Mr.. McMillin then passed on to the
sugar tax and said the authors OF the
Mckinley bill had placed most
grades of sugar Oh the free list, but
the finer grades are still taxed heavily
for the benefit of the manufacturer
He is left with more protection by
that bill than by the rates imposed in
the mills bill. 1t was true fifty
odd million dollars were
taken off the sugar tax, but
it was no free will offering, for the
same measure provided for the pay
ment of S12,000,000 to producers OF
sugar for bounties. Again, while
fifty odd millions tax was taken of
sugar, the increase of duties, amount.
ing to about $65,000,000, was put Oh
other things, and generally on the
necessaries of life. They removed the
sugar tax, which yielded eight-ninths
of the benefits to the treasury and but
one-ninth to manufacturers, only tC

sugar tax on others where but one
fourth of the exactions went into the
treasury and three-fourths went into

find some way to ease
their feelings. Yesterday after
noon tifty-fve white Republicans held
a secret meeting in one Of Austin's
hotels and arranged program for
the continuance of their organization.
They say they are tired of being dom
mated over by Quincy and his sub
ordinates. They arranged, so it is
understood, to put new and distinct
ticket in the field. They will hold
their next meeting in Dallas, at
the time of the holding of the conven-
ton of white Republican clubs in that
city. -
