DIR. ALDERMAN MAY ACCEPT.
Tulane Has $50 Students, LARGE Endowment s
and Pays the President Sc, 1000.

\ letter received here yesterday
from Chapel Hill stated that DR.. Al
derman is taking the call to Tulane
under serious consideration. 1t is
feared there hat he will accept. The
salary is $4,000 per year. The salary
of the president of the University of
North Carolina IS $4,000. Before reach
ing Il conclusion DIR. Alderman says
he deems it his duty to visit New
Orleans and personally look over the
field. Speaking of the University to
which he has been called DR.. Alder
man is quoted as saying:
THE University is one Of wealth
and power. Its technical name is the
Tulane University of Louisiana be-
cause it comprises also what was once
the University Of Louisiana. 1t con-
sists of Tulane University proper, the
Medical College of Louisiana, the Lew
Department. and Sophie Newcomb
College for Women. 1t received from
Paul Tulane in 1892 q gift of over
81. 900. 0GO for the academic depart
ment. The and eNpendi-
lures of the other departments are
from other sources. 1t is not under
State or sectarian control. but it is
controlled by a self-perpetuating
board of Is trustees who are distin-
0uished citizens Of Louisiana. Its at
tendance last year in all departments
was 500. 1t is especially strong in its
engineering and medical departments.
The Sophie NeWcOmb College for Wo-
men is the most famous one south of
Baltimore. Its first and only presi-
dent was Col. VIM. Preston Johnston.
son Of Albert Sidney Johnston.' G

and the nearby options on last Wednes-
dav broke below 8 cents, making declines
Of fully 80 points in some of the deliver
les. 1t was, however, succeeded by a
sharp rally, based mainly upon the Gov
ering of the considerable amount OF short
contracts put out by traders during the
decline. The Winter deliveries which had
also sold off in sympathy with nearby
months, recovered in, company with the
latter, although they displayed less de-
cided strength. This may be attributed
to the more favorable news regarding
weather conditions at the South, and
preparations for the new crop, which, in
spite of some further bullish accounts,
seems to have m~easurably frightened IN
the past week.
The rally in the market was encouraged
by buying On the part of certain large
interests here which are impressed by
the existing statistical position and the
decreased amounts of old cotton which
remain to be marketed before new crop
supplies can be counted on. Estimates
are made putting the probable visible
surplus, when the present cotton season
ends, at less than 500, 900 bales, against
,OOo, 900 bales at the close of the season
of 1898-99. Buying by such interests was
notably large, but at the advance sellers
were very much in evidence and the
market retains an irregular appearance,
which at times takes the form of renew
ed tendencies. Southern spot markets
have been fairly steady in the face OF
the weakness Of position in the contract
market and the marking down of prices
at Liverpool for spots as we'll rs futures
which was a feature Of the week.
