HUBBARD, PRICE & cos. WEEKLY
COTTON LETTER.

New York, Feb. 24.-There has been no
change in the factors bearing upon the cot
ton market and scarcely any fluctuations
during the past week except those caused
by the minor operations of transferring
interests from one position to another.
The question of the reduction of acreage
is still one of momentous Importance,
which has not yet been developed to such
an extent as to warrant any prognostica-
ton as to its extent. We only know that
the acreage will be reduced, partly
through necessity and partly through the
desire to raise other crops, which beneht
the planter more than cotton. 1t must
be noted that there is general movement
on foot throughout the south to plant
more corn and raise more hogs, and this
movement is not only found in the cor
respondence which the commission houses
receive from their friends in the south,
but it is also contained in the columns
of the country newspapers published IN
the cotton belt. 1t is safe to assume that
there is no profit to anyone in raising
cotton at 4 cents pound, except to those
who are able to produce it as n surplus
crop. and this fact has become so
evident this year to every planter that
it is to be expected he will strive in every
way possible to produce ut least enough
food to sustain his hands during the year.
In this connection it is well to note that
the short crop of corn in the northwest
has brought a demand to the south for
that cereal which they have been able to
FIJI for cash; the first instance that we
recall of any crop being sold in the south
for cash. excepting cotton, and as the
merchants have discovered a way of dis
posing of corn for cash they will be apt
to encourage the diversiticatiOn of crops
60, in
4 dull market mt home and abroad is
the natural reflection of indisposition on
the part of the trade as to the future
production of cotton. 1t is admitted on
all sides that this crop will probably eX-
coed 100000 bales and that the move
ment at the present time has been inter
rupted by weather. Those who expect

FONDON FINANCES.

London, Feb. 24.-Only during the
two worst periods of the present CEN
fury has the bank rate remained at z
per cent, once for 13 and at another time
for 16 months. Beyond a slight harden
ing of rates on account of the American
loan there is no visible prospect or
n change, the demand for bonds here lndl-
eating anxiety to find q good investment.
II has been estimated that had the new
issue been made as gold instead OF com CON
bonds the price would have been loU
instead of 119. Business in the STOCK
market was only moderate, but the tone
was altogether better. Most good invest
ment stocks advanced but the London
woterWorks stock fell from 10 to 10 per
cent during the week, the question BENG

rites. including Argentines, were dull.

CATHOLICS PROTEST..

AN Effort to Prevent Ex-Priest Slattery
Speaking in Savannah.
Savannah, Ga, Feb. 25.-This after
noon committee of IL leading members
of the Ancient Order of Hibernians waited
on Mayor Meyers and presented him with
a petition signed by about 500 members
OF that order, and other Catholics. The
petition stated that it had been learned
that ex-Priest Slattery and his wife. who
IS an ex-nup, would lecture here tomor-
row night on Catholicism and that the
slgners were satisfied that if they were
allowed to speak that trouble, disorder and
riot would prevail. In the interest of
peace and order they consequently an
pealed to the mayor not to allow them to
lecture.
Mayor Meyers, in reply, presented tlSe,
committee from the Ancient Order Z, \
Hibernians with written opinion from
City Attorney Adams, who held that
there was no state or city ordinance
which would uphold an order by the
mayor preventing the lecture. No breach
OF the peace can ensue, said Mayor Ny
ers, If those who will be offended by
Slattery's remarks stay away, and the
mayor cannot anticipate that they will
Violate the laws in his expressions. Mayor
| Myers then told the committee, who
were dissatisfied with the decision, that
he was determined to do everything in
his power to prevent disorder at the
meeting. He advised the committee to adj
wise Catholics to remain away from the
hall if they did not care to hear the lee
ture peacefully.

Meeting.
Columbus, o., Feb. 24.-Rev. John A.
Watterson, bishop of the Columbus DO
cese. addressed a big meeting OF the
Young Mems Christian Association TO-
day. As many persons as gained acnit-
lance to the hall were turned away.
This was the first time in history that
Catholic clergyman had addressed
meeting under the auspices OF the Young
Mems Christian Association, ana natural-
ly IL attracted wide attention.
The bishop spoke for an hour and Z mar
on Christian citizenship, the audience
being held in rapt attention, and ire
quently breaking into applause. When
the bishop advanced on the platform the
applause became an ovation, and he
thanked the audience for their generous
welcome. 1t showed him, he said, that they
did not regard him as n bull in china
shop, and especially a papal bull IN the
beautiful china shop of the Young Men
Christian Association. The eloqucnce OF
his address was shown in the following
passage:
while l am uncompromising in the
matter of my faith and inilexible in those
lines of conduct which depend upon the
principles of faith, and while l would
deserve the contempt and the scorn OF

On Seven Others.

Of Two Charges, But Must Stand 1riai
On Seven Others.
Washington. Feb. Capt. Henry
Howgate, former disbursing clerk OF the
signal service, who has been on trlal
since January s, under two indictments
charging embezzlement and forgery, was
today acquitted of the charges. The case
was given to the jury on Thursday last
and it was not until noon today that
verdict was reached. On the first ballot,
it was said that the jury stood { to Tor
acauittal. The jury reported on yester-
day their inability TO agree but Judge
Comas insisted that they should remain
and try again.
The Howgate case has been unusual
in many ways. Fourteen years ago I'M
portant frauds affecting large sums OF
money were discovered in the signal
service accounts and HOwgate was
charged with having committed them.
He was arrested, but by a ruse escape
from his guards and for 13 years remain
ed in New York city. Although re-
ward of $4,000 was offered for his capture
he was not arrested until last fall. AT
the beginning of the trial there was hot
legal debate in regard to the validity OF
the indictments on which it was pro
posed to try Howgate. They were final
iy sustained and the case tried on its
merits. The jury decided that the case
was not barred by the statutes of limita-
ton, but held that Howgate was not
guilty of the particular offenses charged.
After the verdict was rendered How
gate was sent back to Jail to await trial
on the seven indictments still remain
ing against him. 1t is not known which
of these will first be tried.
