New Yorl, Anril .

New York, April q.
In their circular letter published to-day.
say: According to Mr.. Hesters statement,
the worlds visible supply shows Al de-
crease for the week of $4,000 bales. lie
makes the amount in sight for the week
$1,000 bales. showing n total absorption OF
cotton in one week of about 300, 900 bales
The total absorption for the past five
weeks has been about 100000 bales.
Should this rate OF absorption continue
the world would he absolutely denuded of
supplies within about twelve weeks CIR by
the middle OF July. This is. of course.
impossible. An advance in the price that
will check the absorption Is the only issue
10 the situation. which is the STRONGEST
practically since the war. Southern hold
ers of spot cotton can practically name
their own prices for the balance Of the
season. Tho market has been very steady
throughout the day anu closes at ton
prices. The cotcrlo of bearish operators
in New York is coming to some apprecia-
ton of the situation.

LANDLORD ON PATROL DUTY,
Attigcd Only in His Night Clothes,
lie Keeps Watch in tile Early
Morning to Prevent an Out
break of HOslilities.

Up on North High street, IN the court
yard Of No. HI. there is a state Of war be-
tween the clans OK the Vests and the Bot
tOs.
They began by casting their kitchen utsn-
sils out Of the windows upon each other
heads. but since Sunday night blood has
flowed. and there have been hsticuhs and
hairpuline contests that surIass anything
ever seen IN a biosraph.
Matters came TO such a pass ia the prog
ress Of the feud that yesterday morning
the landlord, Louis V. Schneider, spent tho
early watches, when everybody was deep IN
peaceful sIumber paroliiug his property
in his night clothes. 50 as 20 be on the spot
ir case OF II recurrence Of the trouble
Like the feuds OF ancient times. .he
trouble began over trivial matter. Some
body said something derosat0ry about Miss
Lille West who has a room In the oEi,d-
ing. and the thing was argued somewhat
tc., yo.ereutiy between her anG the eldest
daughter Of Mrs. Mary Eot,o. who is also
a tenant. At first there was only an es-
traneement and an occasional exchange
of rhetorical broadsices. whenever MISS
Vests mother visited her, size took a part
In the quarrel.
The building In which the B0ttos and the
Vests l;ye is one OF the brick structures
which were blsils before the war. The
yard had a reputation for being very order
lv until this happened. The dozen tenants
saw that for the preservation Of their own
skins they are rot taking sides in the
fight.
There was a climax Sunday night, when
adherents Of tine Vests and the Botjos met
in the courtyard. In the melee, Mrs. Mary
Bot,o was cut IN the head. Later. Miss
West caused the old woman's arrest. and
Officer BIoecher Of the Fourth District
locked her I'd, and she larsCiahed in the
calaboose until Monday On Tuesday aS-
,ernoon Il gi-i friend OF Miss Vests came
to visit her and there WAS an argument be-
tween her and Mrs. BottU's eldest GdUgh-
ter. Presently they were playing at tug
of-war with each others hair. until tie
landlord and several men !aterfered.
This state OF affairs frightened the land
lord. A!r. Schneider, and so he came from
his home at No 1895 North High street. and
patrolled the yard and the pavement antl
the break OF dawn. Later in the day Mrs.
Botto. with her children. moved Il square
away. Now Miss West holds the fort
triumphant.
Neither the landlord nor the parties mixed
in the imbrosliO were inclined 10 discuss
it. Miss West profesSed dense ignorance
until she was reminded mat she had caused
the arrest Of Mrs. Eotto. Then she said:
"Ah, the poor thing gets ride 50 very
seldom hat 1 thought 1 would get her one
for nothing
