ROUND Tapped BALES.
Amount of This Glass Shipped From
Savannah So Far.

Now that Savannat's receipts of cotton
are believed TO be approaching their high
est point, it becomes interesting to The
trade to notice what per cent. of the shin
ments We're in round bales. The shin
ments show a comparatively good per
cent of round bales.
According to official reports at the Cot
ton Exchange the total shipments to last
Friday We're 911,310 bales. of which 1e GIL
Were round bales counted as S.4S5. The
shipments for the corresponding period
during the season of lSo8-99 were 9S1 All
bales, of which zoos were round. counted
as l,OO3. 1t takes two round bales 10
make one square bale which explains the
reason for this method of counting them
Advantages are claimed in favor of both
the standard and the roundlap bales. and
the prospects are the discussion of their
merits will continue from season TO season
It is claimed for the roundlap bale, among
other things, that cotton will be worth
more in the markets when packed in this
way On the other hand it is claimed
English spnners are discovering a loss in
the round Tapped cotton. which may re-
suit in discrimination by foreign buyers
against cotton packed this way. 1t is
also said that when unwrapped the round
bale has core which is of no use TO spin-
ners, while the standard has no core or
loss.

The Financial Outlook as Seen From

New York. March Pain the general
market there is a strong undertone which
would be more safely expressed in the
present rise If the April settlements were
safely passed. Until these are over, we
are exposed to sudden stringency In money
ties and consequent reactions In stocks.
On the other hand general conditions fav-
or a substantial Improvement In values.
Large railroad earnings nave beccne suegi
an old story that their effect upon vniues
is overlooked; but later on this all inn
portant fact must exert its due influence
upon the market for railroad shares AS
we have repeatedly stated, those shares
which have recently Joined the dividend
list, or are soon likely so to do, offer the
best Inducements for purchase. The old
seasoned dividend payers are now so tight
ly held at high prices that they offer no
attractions to the average investor; while
issues of reorganized properties that are
IN good physical and financial condition
are likely to see much better figures than
those which rule to-day. II should also
be remembered that the supply Of good
railroad shares is steadily declining, and
our railroad system is so fully developed
that there is little prospect of any con-.
siderable increase; the growth of branch
lines and terminals being comparatively
small source for the creation of new Sc
eurities. While there is thus little pros
poets of large new offerings,
the supply of funds seeking in
vestmenr must be rapidly in
creasng. This factor should not be over
looked as n bull argument for the long
run, Merchants and manufacturers are
all experiencing prosperous times; they
will have more funds than usual to in
vest and when the rush OF business abates
sufficiently 20 permit them some atteu-
ton to outside affairs they will come into

much more freely than now. OF course
the approaching cessation Of the Trans
vaal war and the new currency bill are
favorable events Of consequence. though
some parties entertain exaggerated no
lions of their immediate influence upon

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS OF
SHIPS AND Stripping.

The Schooner WIN. II. DOwnes,
which Was Badly Damaged in a
Hurricane During Her Voyage
North With Lumber, Last August,
Has Been Repaired at New York
and Is Expected in Savannah
Within Ten Days for CargO-Mat-
ters of Interest to shippers and
Mariners.
The schooner VIM. f. Downes, Capt.
Dyer, has been chartered for a cargo of
lumber from Savannah TO New York, and
is expected from New York in about cen
days. The vessels last trip from this port
was a trying one, and it was by sheer luck
she was saved from going down. With
a number of other sailing vessels, the
Downes left Savannah with lumber last
August, and nearly all of them ran into
the toughest sort of weather. The Downes
sprung a leak, soon became waterlogged
and drifted about a. the mercy of the
seas. She was picked up off the Bahamas
by a British tramp and lowed 10 New
Haven, where the part of the cargo saved
was discharged. After this she was taken
TO New York for repairs, and after sew
eral weeks there is about ready for service
again.
Want WAY to Get From Boats.
Owners of small craft who visit this port
are anxious to see improvements at the
wharves, and particularly the places they
rent while here. What they are after are
steps at the wharf passages for the con-
venience in getting and off their YES
sells. They do not have so much trouble
during flood tide, but low water finds most
of the smaller CRATE under the wharves,
and to ascend necessitates raising a lad
der or providing other means. Savannah
is almost invariably visited by pleasure
seekers cruising South and those of them
who come in small craft feel the need of
this convenience.
British ships on the China station are
henceforth to be painted black instead of
white, as has heretofore been the custom.
1t is done for the sake of economy, but
will greatly increase the discomforts of
officers and crew during the hot season.

One OF the stories OF history which

the story which the more austere histo-
rtans look upon us apocryphal. But
here Is modern instance which proves
that the story is probably true:
In the recent fighting around L!mu,

force OF natives, who poured I'm n show

the natives use for their arrows has
