COTTON.
New York, Feb. 23.-From start to
finish the cotton market was i'm another
repetition of the Lincoln birthday adj
vnirl of excitement today. What many
had predicted happened in the way of am
advance abroad. The Liverpool market
closed at a net gain of five to ten sixty
fourths as compared with the final prices
of Wednesday. This meant rampant
market in New York. The first call
here developed an advance of 10MIo
points. For the rest of the session the
course of the market was very nregu-
lar and at times erratic, with an enornl-
Gus demand from all points, in good part
from Great Britain and the Continent.
The South was also a heavy buyer.
AT one time the advance was 2Od29
points. AT the close the market was
steady at net rise of 1927 points.
Private cables stated that better feeling
was beginning to manifest itself again in
England, and that the English market
was being favorably influenced 10y the
light interior movement in the South.
The main factor in the advance, how
ever, was the unsatisfactory movement
in cotton. There have come into sight
this year, thus far, 7,oU,0S4 bales
against 5,oUo,o41 tor the same time last
year. There came into sight in March
last year $4,000 bales, and estimates
are very wild as to the amount to come
into sight this March, and on expectation
that it will REACH the same figures as last
year, there was considerable selling i'll
the afternoon. There was no, end of
buying power, however, and the market
closed steady.

The labor world., 1900-03-03

Several unions of the building trades
are making an unusual effort this year
to bring about an eight hour day in
their respective crafts. We hope to
hear of their success along that line.
w ecannot see why: the employers, who
are opposed to the short work day, can
consistently oppose their labor on this
point. 1t is not matter Of competition,
for there tis but little competition
among them as the boss builders Of the
city are as well organized as their
employees ever were.
If they desire to contribute portion
to the future success Of our people, the
hours Of labor will be reduced, then
more men are put to work. Put more
men to work and you increase the
consumptive power, Of the people. In
crease their consumptive, power and
your prosperity is here. Yes, a shorter
Workday gives the laborers time for
social improvement, and this. also tends
to develop new wants and to make
them greater consumers. Some en-
ployers recognize these facts and act
upon them. there are many others who
do not.

AGAINST TRADE CHECKS.

Senator Nelson, Of Minnesota, who
comes from the neighborhood of the
pioneers Of the Northwest, where the
practice has been common for many
years to pay laborers with trade
checks to be used as money at COM
pany stores, has introduced "a bill to
stop the custom. The measure pro-
poses to make it unlawful for any
person, firm, or corporation to issue
or use in his or it's business the tokens
commonly known as trade checks
whether of metal or other material,
and whether payable in money or in
merchandise Employees are for
hidden to issue or use any token or
device representing an Indebtedness on
the part of an employer to a. person
employed. The business Of maun-
featuring or selling such trade checks,
tokens. or devices is also made unlaw-
full. The person or corporation violat-
ing the act is to be liable, to fine Of
$100 for each effense, to be recovered by
action or information, one-half to go
to the informer. Seaman's Journal.
