COTTON.
New York. March 5.-The cotton mar
ket was again in Il whirl of excitement
today. Whether it was because the Eng
lish market was sensationally higher tat
one time the Liverpool advance was
from 5l2 to Z points, or whether it was
on more local conditions, the most eX-
pericnced traders We're at a loss TO de-
eide. Both influences We're actively
working in making the opening of the
market excited at an advance of II TO
16 points. This Improvement was fol-
lowed by q further rise Of from one TO
twcnty-siX points.
\ great business was transacted es-
pecially during the early hours Of the
session. The pendulations in prices Were
frequent and violent Within thirty min
utes after the stroke of the opening gong
the market had advanced - to 80 points
on the more active positions, reacted
II to Is points and recovered > TO s
points, after which it was anybody's
market with views mixed and the local
traders disposed to sell on what they
considered the merits of the situation,
but afraid to do so on account of the
pubic bull fever.
The failure of the Liverpool market
to hold all of the early advance created
a selling movement here later in the
session in connection with estimates or
10000 bales coming in sight this week
against 141,756 bales last week. 170,-
232 bales last year and 100.30S bales in
the short crop season Of 1861 At the
same time the actual movement at the
ports overran estimates, and hints were
given out calculated to prepare the To-
cal traders for a large March movement
Of cotton. There was much in the way
of predicted manipulation to make the
market nervous while there was any
quantity of bear material in the way
of fertilizer stories, calculated to confirm
late predictions Of enormous acreage and
superior cultivation.
The market at the close was Officially
called steady with prices l point lower
to 20 points higher.
The near positions finally showed net
advance of Is to 20 points, the latter
months were anywhere from one point
lower to six points higher. Sales of fu-
lures was about 100000 bales.

Their President.

PUEBLA, Mexico, Jan. 2.-The plebiscite
taken for candidates for nomination for

in by the citizens generally, and. although

ing towns 1t is a matter of much interest
that the common people are strongly FOR

confined to the business men and manufac-
turers. There was great animation here
and the day was pegun with firing a salute
and music by military bands. The voting
was wholly unrestricted and no official in

popular opinion.

candidate for the presidency during the
term beginning next December. Popular

SHIPPERS PROTEST.
Say the Railways Are Trying to De-
stroy the Fruit Industry.

Los ANGELES. Cal, Jan. "A new
agreement, whereby the Southern PACING
and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe in
itial lines agreed to route and control rout-
ings OF all cars of citrous fruits shipped
from California points to their destination.
went into effect yesterday. Shippers say
this arbitrary procedure takes the control
teal demonstration Of the force Of this
new rangeme was made at Riverside,
and to the discontinue Of the Consolidated
Fruit Company, which offered three cars
of citrous fruits for shipment to the East,
the Southern Pacific agent at Riverside re-
fused to receive the cars unless a special
routing clause that gives the shipper the
right to designate the route to meet an
emergency of the market, was stricken
from the bill of consignment. The agents
of the shippers, Moulton and Green, were
informed that the railroad would accept
the fruit with the routing clause intact,
on the payment OF a commercial rate Of
s2.66 per one hundred pounds, as against
$1.25 per hundred pounds, or 80 cents a box,
the rate that heretofore prevailed. This
new ruling fixes the rate at $1.91n a box,
and such a figure prohibits the transaction
of business.
'"This whole matter Is an attempt to force
shippers to use private car lines" said w.
S.. Moulton, to-day, "and il is an illegal,
arbitrary proceeding. We cannot do bust
ness. We are at a standstill and the orange
and lemon industry is paralyzed. Under
the present rulings, if the roads continue
years orange crop. We shall fight this mat
ter to the end.
