New York, August 11.-Today's dry
goods market has been quite dull on the
spot, very few buyers being in attend
ance, business otherwise of average pro-
portions. Heavy brown cottons close
the week without improvement in either
tone or demand and are quite irregular
in price. Bleached muslins are steady
but todays demand light. Coarse colored
and steady American cotton yarns duh
and tendency in favor of buyers. Wooden
and worsted yarns quiet and unchanged.
COTTON.
New York, August 1.-THE market for
cotton futures opened barely steady with
prices one point higher to five points low
er following unfavorable cables from Liv-
erpool which led to active general sell
ing here. The initial prices proved to
be lower, and covering foreign buying
and investment demand later set in on a
moderate scale and sent values up sharp
ly. The bears were disheartened by re-
ports OF IurLnor cOplOuS rains III eastern
Texas where the situation had already
been rendered serious by excessive mois-
ture, and by official Information to the
effect that the eastern belt was sadly in
need of moisture. Anticipations of a
very unfriendly Government crop report
Tuesday, served to stimulate specula-
tion. AS the session wore along the for
eign contingent gradually came to the
front as buyers of the fall options and
the wire houses changed over from the
role of seller to that of buyer. For a
Saturday half-holiday business was toll
erably active and general. The crop
movement failed to reach the volume eX-
pected and new cotton in particular came
forward slowly. Private crop reports
were 'spotty,' noting good conditions in
some sections and poor prospects in 9TH
ers. The improved political atmosphere
in the Far East helped to place the cot
ton market in a better position in that
1t partially removed the timidity in in
vestment circles. The market for futures
closed steady with prices three to fifteen
points higher.
NEW YORK;

Woman Suffrage.

| cannot refrain from saying some
thing, collectively, of course, about
your American women. There is moth
ing like them In the world that | have
ever seen. In our cities the men are
subjects for general admiration In their
sprightliness, dash, vigor and generally
well.gr0omed appearance. In America
it Is the women. have been astonished
at the intelligent interest they take In
public affairs, not only In their own
country, but all over the world. Natu-
rally a great many of them have asked
me about the result of our Irish local
government act of 1898, which gives
women equal suffrage with men on all
questions of local government and upon
eyery question on which the Irish people
vote, except that Of sending representa-
tives to the British House OF Commons.
or course am an advocate OF woman
suffrage. Why not? The interest that
1t gives to women In municipal govern
ment Is In itself an educating force. Ii
is In sympathy with the spirit OF the
age, which Is enlargement and not re-
striction. What woman lacks In logic,
she supplies 10 intuition. What she
lacks 10 strength of mind she makes up
In flnesse and delicacy. Capable, honest
and intelligent women, united for the
humiliation of wrong, are tremendous
power In politics. In the progress OF
civilization woman's power and capabili-
ties are becoming more manifest. 1t ia
high time that we break away from the
barbarism that makes women intellectual
interiors.
In Dublin, previous to the local gov
eminent act, we had about 5000 voters,
none of whom were women. Now our
voters list is about 5000, Of whom at
least 5000 are women. Their votes
have helped secure the election OF candi-
dates pledged to social reforms. Our
elections, since they have been given the
power Of veting, have been orderly and
well conducted. Not the slightest dis
order has taken place at any booth.
But the new privileges Of women are
not confined to the franchise. They
NAV be elected to the City Councils,
rural Councils and Boards of Poor Law
Guardians. Mrs. Maurice D0ckrell,
wife OF Dublin merchant, was elected
Councillor of the district Of Blackjack,
and on the first meeting Of the Council
she was unanimously elected deputy
chairman. In Templemore, Mrs. Brack-
en-, a graduate of the Royal University
of Ireland was elected chairman. have
yet to learn that either of these women
suffered loss Of dignity or dOmesticity
from assuming public duties. l am sat-
isfied that the entire community Is better
because they have done so. For the
sake OF many charming women l have
met here, should like to see America
take a leaf from our book.
