 Dry Goods
 New York October 1.-The week opened with little change in the dry goods market from the closing days of last week. Most buyers are attending to current require ments only, and the few desirous of placing orders for forward deliveries of staple cot tons find the market difficult one to op- crate in. All staple cottons are very firm, with a tendency against buyers. Print cloths have been firm but In active demand throughout the day. Staple ginghams were scarce. India linens and other white goods were well sold and firm.

COTTON SCORES ANOTHER ADVANCE Prices Are Up from 20 to 27
 Points. STRONG BULLISH FEATURE Liverpool Started the Ball to Rolling and the Domestic News Added Strength Excitement
 on New York Exchange
STRONG BULLlSH FEATURE

New York, October 1.-There was great excitement in the cotton market today, started by the improvement at Liverpool, which was greater than the trade here an- ticipated and which became the direct cause of an advance of Sq7 points in the local market. Following the opening call excitement increased on an influx from all quarters and prices further advanced 19 to 21 points,
 Factors in the forenoon were very strong private cables mostly indicating an in- creasing inquiry from English spinners, while accounts from American spinners were also of a more bullish character. The latter have heretofore held off, relying upon the movement to break the market. They were discouraged today by better indica- tlons in the market for cotton goods, while the movement for the new crop does not promise them the stock accumulations they depended upon. The Southern spot hold CTS were reported to be firming up pretty well and overcoming the weakening tend ency they showed last week.
 The market had few setbacks under upward tendency on current belief that sAAS iSPoit run W doiluS tOH WOuiu pC ish. Indications of renewed rains in Texas, where there has been already too much moisture, added to the anxiety of the shorts and to the courage of bulls. An enormous export demand for cotton in the South was also stimulating factor In the market Room traders gave enthusiastic support. The market closed firm at an ad- vance of 20927 points.

facts, that a defensive alliance against

A subsidy bill to be of any lasting ben
eft to the country must seek to place
the flag of the American marine where
it has not been for forty years. The
lost must be reclaimed and the new in
vaded How is this to be done? Speak
ing in general terms-let the government
offer 50, 600 to be divided among steam
ignated points. the amount of subsidy
to be governed by the distance, the
gross tonnage and the probability of full
cargoes; the subsidy to continue in
no case longer than ten years, at the
expiration of which period the govern
ment will be at liberty to continue it in
part or to withdraw it altogether. Let
no aid be given to lines established be-
fore 1900. and not cent paid for passen-
ger traffic
AS Christ came to bring, not the right
eous, but the sinners to repentance, a
subsidy measure should be intended not
to fatten old and wealthy lines with use
less gifts, but to assist the pioneer in
new fields of commercial adventure. No
new line to a new field can be expected
to pay from the start-the future is al
ways discounted. It is to encourage
these ventures among men OF capital
and enterprise that we favor a govern
ment subsidy.
The question naturally arises, how
would these new routes be determined,
upon which a subsidy is to be offered?
A commission appointed by the presi-
dent, taking the evidence of manufac-
turers and shippers as to the most prom
Using fields for American trade, could,
without difficulty, lay down a series Of
commercial routes covering the proposed
field of American trade conquest.
The recent development in the amend
ments of the Frye subsidy bill now be-
fore the senate must convince every one
for whose benefit the bill was original
ly, and is now intended. It's effect will
be that Of private legislation meeting
in no particular the urgent demands of
the manufacturing and commercial
world for a wider and completer mer-
chant marine-a merchant marine that
will enable the people of the United
States to go forth and claim that which
rightfully belongs to them
