STOk ES ANTl-OPTION

The Congressman Says He Pro,

Approaching Session.


gresham and Mrs Stokes rCturn-
ed yesterday from II visit to Glenn
Springs, both feeling much i'm
proved in health. The congress-
man has II few engagements for
addresses t. fill and then he pur
/ poses to concentrate his energies;
upon his auti-option fight fol the
approaching session of congress.
He talked quite intercstingl y of
his measure and the prospects of

But its importance as factor in
/ bringing about better conditions
is too little appreciated. All fu-

4 There is Il legitimate future husi-
ness that should not be interfere d
with. My measure seeks to Inn it
future dealings to actual products
and thus eliminates the spccula
tive trading in wind cotton. In
order to appreciate the injurious
effect of speculative dealings in
futures it must be understood that
the sellers of futures must make
money by Il decline of price. The
seller of real cotton makes money
by an advance in price. Their
interests are diametrically opposed.
The buyer of cotton for manufac-
tnre usually .inauguratcs his buying
operations by large selling orders.
The effect of large selling orders
for future delivery is TO depress
the price Of futures. This enables
the manufacturer to make profit
on his future transaction and then
buy his real cotton ut the decline
IT Il Manchester mill wants 1OO,,
600 bales of cotton to spin it would
probably cable an order to New
York, but not to buy 100, O0(
bales. The order would probably
be to sell large future contracts
for the account of the mill. Th,
price offutures being forced dowr
by the large sales, the mill won lc

tracts ct II profit. SO far no one
but the spectators are hurt OF

"Do you think such legislation

lost her way? No, she lived in the city
and knew her way about town. Had her
friends or children wandered from her?
No. she had gone out alone.
At last, suddenly inspired, he asked,
Have you lost your memorandum
book?" She looked up in his face and
answered, mo, I've got il, but 1 can't
make out what one word of it means"
And eventually she cried so long and
so hard that she had an attack of
hysteria, and a doctor had to be called
in and carriage ordered. Her loss OF
memory cost her husband $50. The
moral is, Write out your memoran-
dunn list so you will know what it

cided that the proprietor of a theater

things are cared for when they are
checked. The woman who has the wis.,
dom of the serpent keeps a very ordi-
nary cloak for theater wear and swathes
her head in an enormous lace scarf.
The scarf can be wrapped in the cloak
and put under the seat, and the gentle

even poke hole in il with his umbrella,

Three weeks ago the banks reported sl5,-

the same ITEM stood at Ssl ,275,200, which
goes to show that the banks, despite the
amazing increases for the week have
accumulated $780, 900 less excess money
than in u similar period at the beginning
of 1897. In fact, the gain In deposits OF
Sa2,s59.900 last week was almost cqunlled
by the second week In january,
1897. IT Is interesting u recall
that investments In sterling loans wero
then heavy and the trade conditions are
not unlike With the exception that no

the west as during the carly part OF 1897.

week reveals the fact that although one
bank gained nine millions In deposits.
and was apparently able to loan It all,
tho larger banks, with few exceptions,
show heavy gains. The expansion OF

swell the deposit item, and with the sll,-

were continued to-day with the usual
large number of buyers present. The
offerings to-day numbered 1871 bales.

rates. The American representatives
operated freely and purchased the bulk
of best merino greasy stock to the
amount OF 1.5OO bales at fully 10 per cent
above the close OF the sale. The CONT
mental and American buyers competed
strongly with the home trade for cross
breds. With the result OF prices of bet

dium and inferior woods were quiet,
while secured stocks showed a good
sale. The home trade paid Is I'd for
