Cotton Letter


 By Private Wire to T. G. Hewlett, Agt.
 New York, Feb. H-The cotton market was not attended by any very influential factors Monday. Cable and southern ad- vices were encouraging, and there seemed to be revival of the oid-fashioned spirit of speculation How far 1t will run re- mains to be seen, but as the staple Is now having more friends than enemies by very large majority, it is just well to go with the tide until it turns. Some bears claim that the improvement is due almost entirely to covering by local and Liverpool shorts, and that when their buying ceases prices will recede again. Bulls, however, claim that prices will be sustained, de- spite a halt in short covering. Late ac- counts from Liverpool today were favor able, due chiefly to less response on our part to their early weakness Port receipts were liberal, but as this cotton was al- most entirely for direct shipment abroad. they failed to have much weight as an influencing factor.

Dry Goods.

New York. Feb. 14-The week opened with the trading in light volume in the dry goods market The new corners show as great diseriminative ability as have their predecessors in the market. They continue to trade on a conservative basis, taking only limited lots of goods which is needed to satisfy the demands of their de- pleted stocks. Mail orders were light again today, and salesmen reported that jobbers and retailers, although experiencing fair hold of goods. The tone of the market continued strong Converters were again the heaviest buyers. Print cloths un- changed at 3-16c.

Financial

New York, Feb. 14.-The Evening Posts London financial cablegram says:
 The stock markets were quiet and easier today, but with an absence of business. Americans opened good especially Louis vile and Nashville and Union Pacific, but then gave way on New York selling, and finally closed flat on reports of an ultima tum from the United States to Spain. This was not generally believed, and barring any such political news I must still report a very feeble disposition in financial quarters here towards Americans. Many, indeed, are looking for real boom. The general tendency to buy Louisville and Nashville was led by firms which recently secured large profits in trust operations. Spanish ly to 77s 915d

An innovation has been made by the
management of the New England fair,
this year, which will unquestionably
find great favor With the patrons of
the fair. According to the new order
of things there will be continuous
performance in front of the grand
stand. At many fairs all that the oc-
cupants of the grand stand are able 20
see is the races, but this year at Rigby
there will be a continuous performance
in front of the stand, and between
heats acrobatic performances, juggling,
vaudeville shows, exhibitions of trick
bicycle riding and many other interest
ing novelties will be presented. The
attendance at the fair this year
promises to break all previous records,
and the management intends to fur
nish attractions to suit all tastes.
