COTTON FUTURES.

New York, April 2O-Cotton market
opened steady at one point decline, to 3
points advance, chiefly owing to uncer-
tain weather conditions in the South.
There was decided lack Of public spec
ulation and the market soon turned weak.
There was little If any of the manipula-
ton which has characterized the market
for several We el1s past and the room trad
ers took the short side of the account
with moe confidence than fer some time
past Long cotton commenced to come out
quite freely and prices sold off several
POINTS. Accounts from dry-goods districts
were not so good; and still later in the
day there was a change for the better in
weather conditions in the South. From
the best prices of the morning there was
a decline of 266 points. There was talk
of an early elimination of the May short
interest," as factor.
The market closed quiet at net gain
of 2 points to a decline of points, hav-
ing rallied partially in the last hour on
light covering.

with the interior There Is rather more
mystery than usual surrounding the item
of loans. The liquidation in the stock
market indicates loan contraction, but the
declining scale of interest rates has
prompted the banks to place as large
loans as possible. The process of loaning
on sterling collateral, which has pro-
ceeded during the week, will undoubtedly
be reflected in the statement as 1t has

Morning News Office, April 2O.-The
week closed without any unusual fea-
lures in the local business situation. The
market which attracted most attention
was spirits turpentine, which went off
during the early part of the week, but
later reacted, regaining a part of its
losses. A good demand sprung up, which
at once arrested the downward tendency
and started price to moving in the oppo-
lite direction. The closing to-day was
firm at 47l2c. There is probability that
the naval stores market will derive con-
siderable strength the coming week as a
result of possible restricted receipts, due
to the floods in many parts of the belt
The floods are interfering with labor, and
also hindering transportation from many
points. The result may be lessening of
receipts and an increase in prices. The
cotton market was quiet during the week
closing quiet to-day, with only small
business doing. The sales for the week
were LIZA, and for the season T,552. Re-
ports from many points in the belt are
to the effect that farmers are hoping for
good weather for planting. The weather
is not the only drawback, however. ID is
reported labor is scarce, and that the
farmers are having trouble in this respect

tries. The following resume of the differ

Select, if possible, chicken or small
halibut sufficient for your family. Clean
we'll by wiping with a soft cloth, and lay
on buttered griddle or on a fish sheet
in dripping pan. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper and lay on top of rich milk
in the pan and place in hot oven, bast-
ing well every few minutes. 1t is well
to remove the pork a few minutes before
the fish is done. If you serve shredded
or French fried potatoes, they may be
placed on the platter around the fish as
a garnish. AS a sauce for halibut
prefer Ho' andaise.
