Cotton Letter

Cotton Letter s',. New York March 3l.-There was a dis tinctly good undertone to the cotton market today. But the volume of business'was not large and the advance scored was unimport- ant.
 The early Liverpool cables again reported that market as unchanged this morning. The report was regarded as not unfavorabie and the opening here was at a slight ad- vance. There was little disposition to sell the market and aa Liverpool sent good buy ing orders for the late months and lccal bear bought heavily to cover, prices were, very steady all day. May opened at 6.99, advanced to 7.0S and closed at 7.011t7.02. The late months under the influence of the Livv erpool buying were stronger and scored a rise Of points for the day. Exchanging of May for August contracts resulted in a widening of difference. We think well of the market RIORDAN & co. i.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.The friends
OF the Nicaragua canal bill expect it to
be taken up early in the week and
that it will retain its lace at the head
of the calendar until disposed Of. The
bill will lead to consid erable debate be-
fore being voted upon, ut its advocates
are very hopeful Of its passage. SEN
ator Morgan will have charge of the
measure in the senate and will try to
reach vote before the end of the week.
His success in that undertaking will
depend upon whether there are many
senators who desire to be heard on the
bill. So far, very few have Indicated
an intention to speak.

Senator Perkins will make an effort,
if opportunity offers, to get up the bill
for a non.partisan labor commission,
and in this he likely will be antag-
onized by Senator Frye with the Ha-
waiian cable bill.
Senator Chandler will introduce the
caucus committees bill for an interna.
tional monetary conference and will
ask to have it voted upon at once. So
far, Senator Pettigrew is the only
member of the senate who has an.

Uneventful Week in the House.
The week in the house is likely to be
uneventful. There are no bills of
great national Importance on the
house calendar which are to be debated
unless the supporters of the Nicaragua
canal project should succeed in per-
suading the Committee on rules to as
sign them one or more days for con-
sideration of that measure. ~
There are two appropriation bills
ready to be acted upon, the agricultural
and Indian, one or both of which may
be sandwiched into some of the spare
hours. They contain no items which
are probable to give rise to much con-
flict. The rest Of the week will be oc-
cupied in passing small bills which
may be called up by unanimous con-
sent.

THE LOUD POSTAL BILL.

''Coin" Harvey Protests to the Senate
Committee Against It's Passage.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l9.-The senate
committee on postofices and postroads
granted hearing on the Loud postal
bill Among those who were heard
was W. H. Harvey, author of "Coin's
Financial School," who opposed the
bill. Mr.. Harvey commended that the
consumer would get the benefit of any
reduction in the price Of publications
caused by low: postage, for the reason
that there could be no monopoly in the
business which the bill would most
effect, as there could be in the
publication of the metropolitan news
papers. He claimed that the distribu-
ton of cheap literature was in the ma
ture of free education of the people.
He said in reply to, a question from
Senator Villas that the Sunday news
paper was more trashy than most of
the books the bill was aimed at. Some
of G. them were valueless to
be sure, but any effort to establish a
censorship would prove dangerous He
hoped that at least a way would be
found to except books on political
economy from the operations of the
new bill and he was remarking that he
thought we were entering upon a
serious time in the life of the Repub.
lie when Senator Chandler interrupted
to say that he thought ''we had saved
the country last fall. :,
Mr.. Harvey thought that cheap p ost-
II kl~
well as paper bound books.
He thought Mr.. Loud had begun at
! the wrong economic point of view and
said he should have investigated the
railroad charges for carrying the mails.

SPRINGFIELD, o., JAN 19.-A close
friend Of Governor Bushnell, whose
name cannot be disclosed for obvious
reasons, makes the statement about the
authenticity Of which there can be no
doubt, that Governor Bushnell, in so
many words, stated to Kim that he
would not appoint Marcus: "A. Hanna to
the prospective vacancy in the United
States senate. The governor and the
relative mentioned had quite talk on
the subject and the governor gave him
to understand that Hanna's name
could not be considered for the place at
all. The relative further along stated
to a local newspaper man that there
was no doubt whatever of Governor
Bushnelps desire to 60 to the senate
himself. He added that he was very
ambitious politically and the present
situation offered him an opportunity to
crafty q long cherished wish to get
into the senate.
Will Resign Himself.
In connection with the above num-
Der of Governor Bushnell's friends are
openly requesting him to resign as gov
ernor and then let Lieutenant Governor
Jones, who would be his successor, ap-
point him senator. Jones would in
that event, it is urged, be the Repub-
lican candidate for governor next fall
by that turn of affairs. To strengthen
the above statement, if strength is
needed, all newspaper men who have
tried to interview Governor Bushnell
about Hanna's candidacy for the SEN
ate know that he hase2lways court
eously declined to talk about it. In
view Of this fact, it is argued, that if
there was no objection to Hanna, the
governor would speak out. g..
