New York, September 2S.-The Conner cial Advertisers London financial cable gram says:
 The markets here were idle and unde- cided today. London declining to follow the New York lead Americans hardly held at uarity in the early hours and they closed flat on New York offerings. Silver was increased, reaching 29A on govern ment buying. It is assumed that this is for India There was a strong exception al demand for Mexicon dollars.
 Considerable option money was given for calls on several months. This is surmised to be speculation on Bryan's chances.
 The bank released good deal of money, breaking the call rate from 4h to 2h per cent.

COTTON MARKET
 VAS NARROW ONE English AdviceS Were Better
 Than Expected. MARKET OPENED STEADY September Was Particularly Strong oni Covering By Few Eleventh Hour Shorts-Room Sentiment -'s
 Was Bullish

New York September 2S.-The cotton market today was a comparatively narrow one, traders being cautious owing to ab- normal conditions. The English advices as a whole were better than expected. The Liverpool break of 30 points on September was less considered than the advance there of 1-64thlD2-64ths on the latter positions. Our market opened steady with prices 1 point lower to points higher, and further advanced 10a13 points on covering, which became a feature following private cables asserting that many Manchester mills were about to resume. There was also some buying for new accounts September was particularly strong on covering by few eleventh hour shorts.
 The selling was largely by exporters against purchases in the South. There was no particular energy to speculation, as the movement continued heavy and spot buy CTS who had no particular interest The exceptionally small stock here checked To- cal selling on the large movement and gem orally favorable weather for picking cot ton.
 The local contingent manifested hesita- ton in view of the fact that the New York market was lower than others, particularly out of stock and faring on enormous Octo- Der short interest. Room sentiment was II anything bullish. The local shorts were trying to buy in their October contracts while selling March. The market was finally steady at an advance of 7Q9 points.

ARMY REORGANIZATION.
Two Plans Are to Be Submitted
to Congress the Coming
Winter.

Washington, Oct. 1.-two plans for
army reorganization will be submitted
to congress this winter Secretary Root,
meeting the views of the president, is
having plans prepared which contem-
plate an army of 100 900 men. He will
follow the same general scheme as that
urged upon the late congress.
General Miles will propose an army of
$4,000, including 36 regiments of infant
ry, Is regiments Of cavalry, 20 batteries
of artillery and coast artillery Of about
$4,000 men to properly man the seacoast
defenses. General Miles believes there
should be at least one soldier to every
thousand inhabitants.
The administration will strongly urge
that big standing army be provided
for, and will point out that the large
army Of volunteers will cease to be
available after next June. leaving the
government practically helpless in cop
ing with the Filipinos. ~
Should Mr.. Mckinley be reelected eff
forts toward the organization of an
army Of 100000 will be made with great
vigor. for he will interpret the majority
vote Of the people as an endorsement of
his policies. Accompanying this appeal
for an Increased army will be the war
department estimates, which will aggre-
gate from $125, 100000 to $3.50, 900 900, as
they will be based on the demands OF
an army Of the maximum size recon-
mended.

1t seems that lot of the boys got

President Holden and paid little or no
attention to his advice to them. A bon

this dance was inaugurated. But this
was not sufficient to satisfy a number
and they went to Hoover cottage where
they made all sorts of noises, some even

young ladies. President Holden was
summoned by Matron Packer. The po-

that ALI who took part in the parade
will have to appear before the faculty.
