MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Cotton Letter.

Cotton Letter.
 New York, Aug. 20-The course of today's market was a genuine surprise to the traders. Liverpool this morning had bad break, and it was the general impression here that we would likewise go lower. Some of the bears were confidently predicting that we should see January selling at 7.50 before the end of the week. But when the market opened the decline was trivial, and was quickly followed by 10 point advance. January opened at 7.96 and advanced to S.06; then there was a sudden reaction to 795, but the decline was short lived The buy ing became confident and general, and prices rapidly rose. January climbed to S.19 and closed at S.1SQDS19, with the tone very steady. We think the reason of the sharp advance is to be found in the growing con- viction that the crop damage, instead of be- ing exaggerated, is really more general and more serious than has been hitherto be- lieved, and that it will result in a crop not a. great deal larger than that of last season. If such should prove the fact we will doubt less see much higher prices.

Disposal of Water Works Postponed
by United states Court Clerk.
E. Scipio Dundy, jr. clerk of the United
States court, appeared at the east door of the
court house at 10 o'clock yesterday and an
nounced that the foreclosure sale of the
American Water Works company S
plant in this city and Flor
ence advertised to be sold at this time and
place under foreclosure decree of the
United States court. had been withdrawn and
that he had no knowledge of whether the
plant would be sold at some future time or
not. He said he had been directed by j.
M. Woolworth,' attorney for the bondholders,
not to sell the property, and that was all he
knew about it. =
Judge Woolworth was found in his Office
and stated that the sale had simply been
postponed. He had found ne said, that the
advertisement was not in accordance with
the decree and had ordered the postponement
He also said that the sale would be readver-
tised within a few days and the property
would be sold in accordance with the de-
cree, after thirty days notice.
John L. Webster, who represents the So
called "Venner faction in the water works
matter the faction which is opposing the
bondholders, smiled very complacently when
speaking of the failure to sell the plant
in accordance with the advertisement. He
said that the decree ordered the property to
be sold from the north door of the federal
building. while a recently enacted law of
cor gress directed that such sales must be
made at the door of the court house in
the county in which the property is situ-
ated. 10 -4.
When asked how the sale was to be made
in accordance with both the decree and the
law Mr. Webster smiled and smiled. He
merely said: "You tell" Without saying 1t
in so many words. Mr.. Webster intimated
that the parties who were trying to sell
the plant were almost between the devil
and the deep sea-" He declined to say
what action, If any, he should take.

THE FREE DISTRIBUTION

O'Clock and End saturday After

The Omaha World Herald takes pleas
ure i'll announcing to the public that
| MesSrs. James $. Kirk 4 Co.. the re-
| nowned soap makers and chemists of
Chicago have sent to their office large
lot of samples of their recent discovery,
Eos elixir OF Soap. that has been Gre
ating such tremendous sensation in
the East. The WorldHerald has made
ample provisions to accommodate all
who call at its office for free sample.
| The free distribution will begin Friday
morning, Feb. 21, at 8 o'clock, and con
tinue until Saturday at ) p. IN.
| 1t will be made without reserve. with
| the exception that children will be re-
| quired to bring an order from their
parents, or from the adult for whom tho
package is intended. But one package
VIII be given to each person applying.
Eos Che Elixir of Soap is the product
and discovery of fiftysiX years of sue
cessful soap making. No discovery in
recent years of any preparation for
laundry use and general washing has
created the sensation and enthusiasm
that Eos has. 1t may be justly termed
the great reyoutionizer for all washing
purposes. for both laundry and toilet.
Among the claims made for Eos, which
Messrs. James $. Kirk e. Co. stand pre-
pared to prove. are the following:
That it will do the family washing
without using one particle of soap better
than it has ever been done before ut
e-half the labor and expense.
1t will keep bluing from curdling in
the water. .. ,.s
Flannels and woolens washed with
this most valuable preparation will posi-
lively not shrink; for the bath or toilet
it is Indispensable, making the water
soft and velvety, giving the skin u
healthy glow. and removing any super
fiuous excretions that may adhere to
the body.
For dishes and general washing pur-
poses it is very essential as 1t saves
both labor and the soap usually re-
Qured.
This preparation must not be con-
founded with the ordinary soap pow
ders, for while no soap is required when
Eos is used it contains no lyc. ammonia,
borax, lime. or any deleterious ingrcdi-
cnts. 1t is essential that all consumers
of soap must eventually use IT.
Eos saves 100 per cent of soap, which
means that absolutely no soap is re-
Quired when Eos is used, and also saves
60 per cent of labor.
This grand preparation. the product
of the most complete chemical labora-
tory in America, is TO be distributed free
oH the uaHS anu dii'cS us hDoNe all
nOunced, giving every housekeeper in
Omaha an opportunity to test free the
very cream of the ripest experience of
the leading soap manufacturers of the
world
We advise an early application from
those desiring free sample, rs Judging
from the enormous demand by the pub
lie for the same in other important
cities the supply, although very large,
may possibly be exhausted before the
eXpira ton Of the two days announced
for the free distribution. and it is their
desire that none shall be disappointed
