Cotton Letter.

H. D. Cothran & Co.'S Market Letter
 Birmingham, May 2.-Cotton continues dull and lifeless. All speculative interest seems to be confined to the stock market, and we cannot hope for changed condi- ttions until something new shall develop in the situation which will take the cot ton market out of the rut it Is now in.
 Receipts and trade conditions are all against the price. but values are now so low that the talent is afraid to sell, the market short. Liverpoo again disap- pointed both spots and contracts;' lower. We opened down about 4 points, but by noon most of this loss had been recovery ed.
 Amount In sight for April, 4s9, ,OOO, against 2S3,297 last year. Total in sight to May l, 9,3S4,947, against S,5S9000 last year, and 1O506,000 the year before To- wards the close of the session an easier tone prevailed and the close is at the low point for the day. Houston expects tomorrow 4,25O. against 3SS and 297; New Orleans, 2,0OO, against 279 and 3s46
 May corn up to 55 cents today. July should be a purchase.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, May 2.-The market for spot cotton ruled quiet and easy, with fairly large and we'll assorted offerings, but with the demand quite limited as buyers are holding off. The continued de- cline in prices at Liverpool and the con- stant uncovering of new supplies on this side has given rise to a feeling of uncer- tainty as to the future of values and the purchasing element shows a decided in- clination to await further developments before entering the market freely for ad- ditional stocks. Sales 25O0 including 400 to arrive. Quotations 1-16 lower on all grades
 The local market for contracts was dull and uninteresting during the day. with the trading confined largely to the July position. Liverpool was off again to the extent of 1-32 on spots, and at the opening showed losses of 1-64 to 2-64 on delv-. cries; but prices in the English market 1uctuated sharply during the after hours and displayed a slight upward tendency. The local market opened 1 to 2 points down, and after slight fluctuations. closed with present crop months 3 to 4 points lower and the balance of the fist un- changed.

New York, May 2.--Commercial-Ad -Adver- tisers London financial cablegram:
 A large business was done here on the Stock Exchange today. Buying orders had accumulated over the holiday, the execution of which gave the market the appearance of great activity, but the tone was also better, more buoyant than 1t has been for long time. The new consols are hardening.
 In the American department business was exciting but confused and irregular. London rushed into profit-taking during the first hours of the morning. Soon. how ever, came a furious demand for Atchi- sons, which went kiting and rallied the whole list. There was a pause, during which the market fuctuated feverishly. Then the Atchison boom was continued. and the street heard that Pennsylvania was buying large lines of it. Union Pacific hung rather heavy, although ITO was talked of for it on the reported guarantee of per cent on the stock by those who are acquiring control.
 The feature of the days business how ever was the gigantic options in Amer jeans; this Is regarded by some people here as the only safe method of dealing in them now. United States Steel was ac- tive around 555s for the common and 103B for the preferred. There was big rush for Grand Trunks on vague rumors of working agreements between them, Northern Pacific and the Leyland line.

no surprise, and stated that he would
at once take the matter up with his
company and recommend that it be
given immediate attention and settle
ment, if such could be done with q
reasonable expenditure of money and
labor. Mr.. Harvey. of course, made
no positive pledges further than that
to notify his companies at once. and
intimated that he might recommend
a settlement of the difficulty without
recourse to the courts. He further
suggested that whatever was to be
done should be accomplished between
now and next spring as the works
would be closed down about the last
of this month for the winter. He
also agreed to notify Messrs. Peabody
and West of the result of his cores
pondence without delay.
The committee was careful to take
samples of the river water both
above and below the workings, and
these are on exhibition both in this
city and Pueblo. The matter will not
be permitted to drag along, a. its
prompt settlement is matter of me-
cessity,

TWO TRAIN LOADS.
A New York Firm Purchases Two
Train Loads Of Apples on Lincoln
Park--cost About Forty Thou
sand Dollars.

y Lincoln Park is busy place these
days. It's the harvest season in
fruit and everybody is picking, sort
ing, packing and hauling apples to
market. This is banner year for
the apple sections about Canon City,
and Lincoln Park supports many Of
the best apple orchards.
About the busiest place on Linco'n n
Park is the packing establishment of
Austin Kimball & Co. This is big
New York fruit establishment that
handles million dollars worth of
apples every year.
Heretofore many Canon apples have
not been shipped to New York. But
in the fall c. W. Kimball, member
of this firm, came to Canon City on a
visit and discovered big apple crop.
During the last few weeks Mr.. Kim
ball has purchased about 35. 900 boxes
Of apples. or about 20 cars or two
train loads, on Lincoln Park. For
the fruit he has paid out about 1885,
600. and the packing and hauling will
cost him in the neighborhood Of S5,-
600.
For the best class of apples Mr..
Kimball has been paying about 81 a
box for firsts, and he does the sort
ing, packing and furnishes boxes.
For seconds he has averaged about
70c. This is certainly a very fair
price and will net the grower some
good money for his crop.
Mr.. Kimball's packing establishment
is an interesting place just now. He
is packing about 1000 boxes daily.
At one place be has 60 people at
work, and in the several orchards ~
many more. making about l20 alto
esthsr. The greatest pains are taken
to pu' the apples up in the very best
possible shape. Mr.. Kimball has
learned by experience that appear
ances go long way in selling apples.
He is very careful in the sorting and
packing and has all boxes lined with
nice. clean, white paper.
For years this firm has been buying
apples all through California and Ore
gon. II is a peculiar fact that the
freight rate from Canon City TO New
York is sl.l0 per hundred. and only
Sl.05 from points on the Pacific
coast.
Mr.. Kimball is q firm believer in
spraying. and thinks it should be kept
up until well into September. He
says that some of the apples he pur-
chased last month in the bulk have
been damaged since by worms. Mr.
Kimball's observations on the spray
ing business is Of considerable value
as he has watched the fight against
the coddling moth in many states.
1t has been stated that Mr.. Kim
ball has purchased about $4,000
boxes OF apples on the Park. and it
might be added that Chicago firm
as bought about as many on this side
Of the river. 1t is estimated that
these gentlemen have engaged about
n third of the apple output which
would estimate our winter apple crop
at 10000 boxes, or, $4,000 in
value. The writer believes this very
conservative. and the yield may ex-
ceed that amount.

Juno looked at the speaker with her
eloquent eyes and read as only chill
dren and animals can read its owners
kindly nature.
"Come along In, If you want to. We
seem to be rescuing all sorts of way
farers tonight"
Juno waved her big, plumy tail. en-
tered the brightly lighted hall and
stopped short. Up went her head, and
the next instant she was bounding up
the stairs as though she had gone mad,
for just then little voice above cried
"All for Dimmie and me! All for Dim
mie and me!' as the doctors wife
placed bowls of warm milk and big
slices of graham bread before two
nearly famished children.
The dog bounded into the room
knocking Faye heels over head and tip,
ping over her bread and milk.
Faye lay fiat upon her back. utterly
undisturbed by the white sea, with its
brown islands, IN which she floated
while Juno, with whines of delight
licked the child's face and hands and
whimpered over her as though she were
one of her own puppies restored to her
Faye clasped her arms about the
shaggy neck and cried In a joyous
voice:
"Juno tummed for Faye! Little moth
er sent Juno to fetch Faye and Dim.
mier'
Half an hour later the doctor rang up
the sleepy clerk, for Juno had led him
straight back to the hotel, and a few
moments later Faye was gathered into
little mothers" arms.
No words can describe that meeting.
Jimmy looked upon it In amazement
Such joy and intense love were a reve-
