Cotton Letter.

Cotton Letter.
New York, March 16.-(Special. 1.-THE
trading in cotton today was marked by
the same nervousness as on Saturday.
Weakness in Liverpool, caused by the
Egyptian complications had only tenn
porary effect in depressing prices here.
May opened at $50, declined to 7.47, quickly
regained the loss and closed at ,7.54, with
the tone steady. May was throughout the
day the strongest month relatively on the
whole list, and this gave rise to some talk
that the shorts in May cotton might be SUBJ
Jected to a squeeze. The bureau report.
forecasting a yield of about 6,S00,000 bales,
ought to have been bull card, but little
attention seemed to be paid to 1t, and up on
its announcement May fell suddenly from
1853 to 7.49. A little later prices hardened,
and the closing bids were the best of the
day. The feeling this afternoon is that
prices will be higher.

Cuban Affairs.

WASHINGTON, January 7.--Several
members Of the House consulted the
leaders to-day regarding the intro
duction of resolutions for the recog-
milton of the insurgents of Cuba as
belligcrents. 1t is quite likely. how
ever that the Cuban question will not
come up for discussion until the Com
mittec on Foreign Affairs makes re-
port.
Representative Sulzer OF New York
City called at the State Department
today, accompanied by President
Palma of the Cuban Revolutionary
Committee, Secretary Quesada, Hora-
ito Rubens. ii prominent Cuban sym
pathizer. and Manuel Sanguilly,
brother of Sanguilly, now held i'll Moro
Castle, Hanana.
Secretary Olney was about to leave
for Cabinet meeting. SO the party
did not see him. They left large
bundle of papers for his inspection.
It is believed the main purpose of the
visit was to secure energetic action in
behalf Of the imprisoned Sanguilly,
who claims American citizenship.
1t is learned that the chief purpose
of the leaders of the Cuban revolu-
tiopary party i'll coming to Washing
ton to-day was to push vigorously d
movement to secure the recognition
of the insurgents by this government.
They made Secretary Olney a brief
but forciblc presentation of the claims
Of the resulutionists to recognition.
President Palma and associates at
once began to present evidence in jus
tice OF their cause, and presented
documents, of which he gave the
Secretary the substance, and which
will be presented to the House.
There is Il strong sentiment in the
House, winch has been advanced by
the recent successes of the Cubans,
that this government should do all IN
its power consistent with internation-
al usages 10 asalst the patriots.

The Gold Reserve.

WASHINGTON. January 7.-Iho
Posts Washington special says: Tho
fears entertained of run on the gold
reserve bid fair to be realized. In
formation was received at the Treasury
Department to-day that orders for the
importation of gold would be can
celled and s3,000.000 go out by to.
morrow. s steamers. Private advices
from New York also tell of large with
drawals for domestic sequestration.
This is what the administration
feared more than Withdrawals for ex-
port.
"Scare dispatches" poured into
Washington this afternoon from Wall
street news agencies asking for the
latest about the Treasury situation.
1t is not improbable that the Secre-
tary of the Treasury may be forced
to abandon his popular loan program
and make another syndicate deal
Within ten days or two weeks to pro-
tect the reserve from humiliation.
The reserve will be down to $685.
OOO,OOO by tomorrow night by known
figures.

At THE END OF THE SEASON.

Some Reasons Why tho Hair Of tho Sum
mer Hotel Proprietor Turns Gray.
These arc the days when the big sum-
mer hotels ut seashore and mountain
begin to cut down expenses in view of
the near close of the season. And there
by hangs u tale, for the cutting down
process is not unattended by trials and
worry, says the New York Herald.
Of course the most expensive thing is
the help. Most great hotels require al
most as many servants as they have
guests, and when the guests begin to
go home by scores the servants have to
be discharged Icy scores or away go the
profits of the season.
But servants are clannish, and there
comes in the difficulty. They are only
engaged for a season of indefinite
length, and know that they must go at
it's end. But many object to going
while their friends remain, and it often
happens that the lucky ones who are
retained refuse to stay out the remain
ing weeks or days if their friends are
discharged.
So no end of trouble arises, and the
wretchcd proprietor acquires gray hairs
in Strengthening out the difficulties.
Recently the proprietor of one of the
biggest of our nearby seaside hotels,
having lost all but about forty guests,
undertook to reduce the kitchen staff
proportionateiy.
There was immediate war, and even
the French chef got red in the face and
declared that if he couldn't have his
all-su,nmer force he would pack up and
get out forthwith. The proprietor
couldn't yield and retain his profits, and
the chief and his assistants were OBJ
stinatc.
So all that was left for the proprietor
was to throw out the entire force, bag
and baggage, and hustle up to the city
and engage an entirely new force for
the remaining two weeks of his season.

The San Francisco Examiner says
there is one curious fact respecting the
animal creation with which one will
never become acquainted if he depends
on his textbooks for information. 1t
is this: No living representative of the
animal kingdom has more than five
toes, digits or claws to each foot, hand
or limb. The horse is the type of one
toed creation, the camel of the two
.tued. the rhinocerous of the three toed
and the hippopotamus of the four-toed
animal life. The elephant and hun
dreds of other animals belonging to
different orders belong to the great
fve-toed tribe.

An Educational Awakening.

The efforts to organize a
teachers association promises
to be an assured fact, as we
understand the teachers of Ard
more and vicinity will meet
Saturday afternoon for that
purpose.
Among the aims of such an
organization are to develop a
higher educational ideal and to
discuss the most approved
methods of leading educators.
Some of the topics that will
receive attention are mathe-
matics, science, language,
music, art, methods, manage
ment, etc.
We feel that every progress
i've teacher of this town will be
found taking part in the de-
liberatiOns of its subsequent
meetings.
