FURRY OF PROFIT TAKING

New York, March 31-The cotton market opened weak with prices to 10 points lower under brisk selling from all quarters which In turn grew out of bearish Liverpool cables instead of expected bullish advices from that center. Then too, reports of gen. eral activity on plantations in the cotton belt and evidence of an enlarging forward movement of old crop cotton, added to the break. furry of profit1taking by room shorts of the scalping type led to quite a rally at the close of the first hour, but the market exhibited small recuperatlve energy and ruled barely steady pretty much to the close. On the break a prominent Wall street house was identified as liberal buy CT of the near months, but this support only partially absorbed offerings of long cotton for those deliveries.
 The market for futures closed barely steady, with prices net five to eight points lower.

PRINCE DROPS TOD SLOAN.
RETAINER OF THE AMERICAN JOCKEY
FOR 1901 CANCELLED.


London oct. 31.-"The Sportsman announces
that the Prince of Wales has cancelled his re-
tainer of Tod Sloan for 1901.
The announcement is as follows:
The arrangement by which Sloan was to be
first jockey to the Prince of Wales next season
will not be carried out.
THE Sportsman had communicated this in
formation to the various morning papers, and
the Prince of Wales, which is undoubtedly due
to the agitation started by Lord Durham.
THE Sportsman commenting upon Leopold
de Rothschilds letter to The Times yester-
day on the subject of doping horses points
out that if doping has been practised in Eng
land ne offence has been committed, because
there is no rule in existence against it. but says
that the sooner strong measures are taken to
stop such practices the easier it will be to pre-
vent the deterioration of thoroughbred stock in
England.
The Rothschild letter in tn eopinion of The
Sportsman" shows that the stewards of the
Jockey Club are likely to take action, but the
paper adds this word of caution
The public should remember when complain
ing of the stewards inactivity the immense diff
fculty they must experience in procuring relia-
Bile evidence. 1t is to be hoped, however, If any
thing is done, that there will be no unnecessary
delay The feeling that American jockeys have
been more leniently treated because they are
foreigners than English Jockeys accused of the
same offences is a great cause of very bitter
feeling between English and American Jockeys.

COwEN DENIES ANY COERCION.

Baltimore Oct 30 (SpeciaD.-John K. Cowen,
president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany has refuted with convincing proofs the
charges of cOercing employees made against him by
"The Baltimore Sun and reiterated and Contorted
into campaign material by Bryan and Jones. Mr.
Cowen is of the leading sound money Demo-
Gratis of the country. He in 1886. he is now.
a leading spirit in the campaign of the cOnserva-
tive Democrats against Bryan In a speech to thou
sands of railroad and steel workers at a sound
money league meeting. Mr.. Cowen spoke of a con-
tract for six thousand steel cars the construction
of which was contingent upon the election of Nc
Kinley, with the exception of one thousand. work
on which Mr. Cowen explained. would be we'll
under way before election. The amount involved
was S 100000
Mr. Cowen now explains that the cars necessary
will be paid for out of the proceeds of securities
provided under the various plans of the Baltimore
and Ohio's reorganization for such purposes. These
securities We're necessarily hoated by bankers, and
Bryan's election IS believed by all bankers, without
exception to be so certain of causing fear. doubt
and hesitation the financial markets OF the world
that they will take the securities at the price
which the managers of the company regard as
proper They will take them at these prices II
Bryan is defeated The funds. therefore. for the
payment Of the cars will not be forthcoming unless
Mckinley is reelected; hence. prudent business
men, the railroad officials made the contract accord
ingly. President Cowen in his statement refuting
the campaign slander further says;
The great bicycle works at Hagerstown. Nd:
will be the of furnishing more than one

But the contract depends for its performance on
MCKiney's election. one of the large concerns
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in West Vir-
ginia has made agreement for the sale of an
enormous product, and of the express condi
tons This agreement shall he null and void If
Bryan is elected
There is not a large manufacturing concern in the
Pttsburg division OF the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road but has orders file conditioned McKin-
leys election
Hundreds of the men OF the Maryland Steel
Works, who at the meeting to hear Mr.
Cowen. deny Indignantly that any attempt has
been made TO influence their votes. but the large
majority of them are for Mckinley. including a
score or more who four years voted for Bryan.
