NOTHING new IN COTTON.
A SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT MANI
TESTED Ar NEW ORLEANS.


Special Dispatch.
New Orleans, La. May as.-MeElroy
& Co. say;
futures-There IS nothing today on
couraging to the bull side Spot sales
were only s0oo bales with prices in
buyers favor while deliveries show a
decline of l-G4 to 2-di. Notwithstanding
the prices here at the closing are 5 10
points higher than yesterday. The
good spot demand here at i-l6c ad-
vance appears largely responsible for
the improvement, Sales were 5000 by
factors and 1870 to arrive. Nothing OF
special interest is to hand today con-
eernlng the crop situation, but the OK
port movement is attracting consider
able attention.
Foreign shipments recently have fall
en- to very low ebh and are partleu-
lRrly noticeable owing to comparison
win the large exports which went out
last Year after tho settlement OF the
strike The figures for the first four
days of this week show that exports
OF 1000 against $1,000 last year, and
shoOl the year before. These confirm
IN practical way the opinion eN-
pressed by US a month ago in contra
dicuon to the general belief that
American stocks at the end of the
season would fall 10 dangerously
low ebb. with such small exports
there Is no danger that stocks this
slide Will be depleted sufficiently TO
cause American spinners any alarm.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
A Communication From State Attorney
 George F. Terry.

\ Communication From State Attorney George F. Terry.
 To the Editor of the DEMoCRAT:-
 Permit me to say a word with reference to those saloon keepers who kept open last people desire that they should be prose cuted for so doing. It is fairly to be pre- sumed that they acted in good faith, with no intention of violating the law, as they first consulted counsel, obtained and acted upon his opinion
 Now, whether they technically violated the law is still mOoted question, upon which authorities differ, but the fact still remains that they acted openly and appar- ently in good faith. Now, should men be prosecuted for a technical violation of law when they acted in good faith, with no in tentional wrong, and no appreciable injury resulted therefrOm, as shown by the small number of arrests for drunk enness on that day.
 Neither justice nor the cause of temper ance would be greatly advanced by such a proceeding. True, laws are made for the purpose of pupishing the guilty offender, and the fact of guilt presumes q guilty in stances clearly disapprove any guilty in tent is the cause of justice promoted by punishing the offender, or does 1t not rather tend to make the law dead letter on the statute book
 I submit under all the circumstances if these are not proper cases to be overlook ed by the prosecuting officer.
 GEO. E. TERRY.

IN COMMAND AT RIO.
Sketches of the InsurGent Leader and of
 the American Admiral.

 the American Admiral.
 It is perhaps fortunate for the fame of Admiral Benham that he was placed in command of our fleet at Rio and given an opportunity to distinguish himself before his retirement from the navy for age in April next, for although Admiral Benham has been honorably identified with the navy for nearly half a century it is long time since he has figured prominently i'll the public eye.
 Admiral A. E. K Bcnham was born in New York April 10, 1S32. and appointed midshipman in the navy Nov. 24, 1S41. He was graduated from the Naval acade- my in 1853 and until the civil war broke out served in the Pacific. He made a creditable record in the war, became lieutenant in 1860 and lieutenant com mander in 1862. In 1867 he was prOmOt- ed to the rank of commander, became captain in 1S11J. and in 1885 was made commodore and put in command of Mare Island navy yard. In 1890 he was pro noted to the rank of rear admiral.
 Admiral Benham commanded the American vessels participating in the Spanish Columbian celebration, and his
