Senator CLARK was accused of
having used money to influence
members of the Montana Legislature
to vote for him. The charge was
promptly and searohingly investi'
gated and CLARK is to lose his seat.
Hanna was known to have used
both money and the promise of ap-
pointments to secure his election.
The Senator refused to even inves-
tigate the charge. Hanna is re-
publican.
If Clark should be candidate
for Senator from Montana again,
he will have learned from exper-
ience, that he cannot get the sup
port of Senator Hanna if he goes
to madly running the price of votes
up as high as he is charged with
having run them in his former
election. He will know better than
to try to bull the Senatorial mar
ket.-Oharleston Gazette.

COTTON.

New York, May 1.-THE market for
Gotten futures narrow one today.
Fluctuations were confined to a range
of points, on the more active positions.
while some months scarcely varied after
the opening call. 1t was also a small
market as to the volume of business.
The general tendency of local sentiment
was bearish on lower cables, good crop
accounts and larger receipts than looked
for Opening easy at a decline Of to q
points there was a further decline of ,
points; but the whole course of the
market was sluggish. Wall Street parties
gave some support for the summer po-
sitions which checked the selling OF later
months The unsatisfactory cables were
partially accounted for by private adj
vices representing active liquidation by
several large operators following recent
improved weather conditions in the cot
ton belt A prominent factor of weak
ness was the delivery of $500 bales on
May contracts. partly returned to this
port for the purpose by the New England
buyers, who were attracted by the
premium.
The market closed quiet at net de-
cline of from 4 to points.

that they like to be represented in Con-
