New York, June 27-The stock mar
ket to-day developed pronounced weak

to be a wider distributor of stop

degree of nervous tension prevailed
that was not satisfactorily explained
as due TO specific reports or rumors. A
prominent operator, who is gem
orally Unidentified with efforts on the
ball side of the market was to-day
considered mainly responsible for the
attacks on several of the leading rail-

appeared to be unsupported and
yielded readily to pressure. Dealings
in Sugar were on a smaller scale than
recently, but a decline Of rs per cent

RALEIGH COTTON MARKET
HUBBARD BROs.-s& CO.'S LETTER.


New York, June .-(Special) i'm
face Of an improvement in the foreign
markets and continued drought in
Texas the market declined, closing
easy at the lowest prices of the day.
The reason for this decline was the
absence of any buyers except the local
interest and the reason for the lack of
buyers is the unsettled feeling in the
country regarding the political and
business outlook. When the feeling of
confidence in the future once more
finds place among the merchants and
manufacturers business in all lines will
improve. Crop reports in the Chronicle
show continued deterioration in the
prospects throughout Texas. The
recent reports of rain which have been
received from that State proved to be
only local showers, benefiting the
crop in isolated sections. The feeling
throughout the South remains bearish,
however, and the West regards cotton
as altogether too high as compared
with grain and provisions and
therefore they look for a
furthr decline. 1t will be
noted that the visible supply of
cotton decreased at an increased rate
this week, due entirely to the pur-
chases by European spinners.

New York, June 27.-The openin. Of
the cotton market was quiet and firm
at sac points advance on quite active
covering by traders and buyers for
long account, induced by the strength
of the Liverpool markets and by the
Chronicles report from Texas regard
ing the injury to the crop and the
absence of rainfall, The outside trade
failed to come in and toward midday
early buyers became sellers. There
was considerable local realizing and in
the absence of support prices fell off
quite readily. The close was easy at
4G7 points lower. The agreemnt of
one-half the Fall River mills to close
one-half time in July and August was
used with some effect on the decline.

WORK OF TRAINING SCHOOL.

Now then. the first thing to do to
make technical training perform it's
part for the advancement Of civiliza-
ton is 20 inculcate in the minds OF the
people. that work is ennobfng, and is q
divine command. There are too many
that feel that being mechanic is put
ting the mark of inferiority upon Them
selves. 1t is true that training the
hands qujclens the brain. Locke, near
lv two hundred years ago, advised that
a dun boy be put to bodily labor to
quicken his mind Idiots are developed
and trained almost entirely through
the use of the hands. This should NOS
initiate against manual training, but
is only another proof Oh its varied and
wonderful capabilities The differ
ence between general education and
technical training is, that technical
training prepares the person to do
something as well as to know some
thing.
