The Cotton Markets.

New York, June 1.-The pit in the
Cotton Exchange presented lifeiess
scene during the greater part OF the
session to-day and the bulletin board
recorded insignificant; price variations.
Helped by encouraging cables from
Liverpool, bulls succeeded in scoring an
advance OF 1@2 points on the first call,
but finding the investment public indis-
posed to lend their aid. gave attention
exclusively to the reimbursement of
struggling accounts pending further de-
vclopments not only in Europe. but in
-r1e- South as well. As matter of pre-
caution, some Of the less confident
shorts sought cover around the opening.
but soon withdrew from the market
Aside from the cable news. there was
little on which to base new ideas. The
weather in the South WAS unchanged.

him. The man who sat next TO the
sentimental Irishman got up and of
fered his seat to the pretty girl. She
hesitated and then said: NO, thank
you; I'm only going a few blocks"
The intoxicated individual stopped
as short in his song as il he had run
against a rope. He braced up stitfly
and his face took on a look of disap-
pointment and injured innocence M
he broke out with:
"She won't-hie-she won't set down
